Description

This home has a spacious lanai from which to enjoy panoramic views during your morning cup of coffee or a relaxing evening. Vaulted ceiling and hardwood floors in the great room make this a great place to build family memories. There is air conditioning in each of the bedrooms. The swishing of palm trees and the soft sound of occasional showers adds a tropical experience.

Imagine having all this and famed Hanalei Bay just across the street. It's truly one of the premium beaches on Kauai for strolling, sunbathing, seasonal swimming and surfing.

You may want to check out some of the local farmer's markets nearby for fresh island produce to include in your island-inspired culinary creations.

Nearby activities include seasonal swimming, surfing, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, fishing, wind surfing, hiking, horseback riding, shopping, tennis, and golf.

House is great, location is excellent. Very big for a 3 bedroom. Lots of space.
Stove needs some maintenance. Some burns take many tries to lit, but overall I recommend it and would stay there again.

Great house. Great location. My daughter timed it and says it is a 3 minute walk to the beach and 7 minutes to Hanalei town. Great views of mountains and beach.

This was our 3rd trip to Hanalei and our favorite house so far. Our favorite activity was walking to the beach in the morning to surf, walking to town in the afternoon to eat and look at the shops, then back to the beach for the afternoon and sunset, followed by dinner at the house.

Everything in the house worked well. We did not need the air conditioners. Just opened the windows for ocean breezes. Garage is stocked with chairs for the beach and a couple umbrellas and coolers. Plenty of towels and the kitchen was set up with everything from rice cooker, to toaster oven. The only thing I wish they had is an outdoor shower, but not a big deal because there are showers at the beach and a hose at the front of the house.

Manager's Response

Mahalo nui loa for your wonderful review! It sounds like you had an incredible week in Hanalei, making the most of everything the area has to offer. It’s an honor to be your favorite house in Hanalei so far! We hope to welcome you and your family back for more unforgettable memories in the future. Aloha!

It's a beautiful,spacious home in an amazing location on Weke Road, steps from the beach. The property managers were friendly, quick and responsive when we needed help. There were issues with bugs, cockroaches, which they sprayed on our second day. Also an ant infestation in the kitchen, which we did not call about. We did not call about. It would have been better if they had treated before our arrival.

Manager's Response

Mahalo nui loa for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear you Enjoyed the home’s spaciousness and location. We apologize for the inconvenience. Our homes are on a routine pest control and we can do emergency services when needed. We hope to welcome you back very soon. Aloha!

We really enjoyed our stay at Pua Melia. The house is in a great location with beautiful views from every bedroom and the front porch. This was an ideal set up for our group of six. The kitchen was very well equipped, one of the best kitchens in any rental I’ve ever stayed in. The downstairs bathroom was nice to have as an extra. There were plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas etc. We highly recommend this house and would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for the week of our wedding which was on Hanalei Bay and couldn’t be more pleased with the home. It was so beautiful and spacious. All of the rooms were a nice size and two of them had ocean views. Even the one that didn’t was beautiful. We would definitely stay here again. The ladies at the office were also so nice and accommodating and if we had any questions, they were quick to get us answers.

I supposed the location could be beat, but not by much. 1/2 block to beach access, on the frontage road for the beach with only 1 row of houses between the house and the beach. Great view from deck that does get a bit warm in afternoon. 5-10 minute walk to the main Hanalei intersection. All living space on second floor. 3 spacious bedrooms. Beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and cart. There is a companion house directly behind it on the same lot - we rented that for the rest of the family. A/C in the bedrooms, though the breeze was usually enough to cool it off.

Pua Melia is the perfect home for a family getaway in Hanalei. The lanai alone is the best place to watch the sunset, have dinner, people watch, or just watch and listen to the rain. The location is a short walk to the beach or into town. AC in bedrooms is a definite plus in this home. Perfection in paradise.

The Pua Melia house is the ideal location for a 5-star Hanalei Bay experience. It was a very short walk to the beach and a brief walk into town from this near-beachfront home. The garage was well stocked with chairs and boogie boards and beach towels. Watching the waves crash while dining on the deck was a highlight.

We love staying in Hanalei and enjoyed our time at Pua Melia, a two story home across from the Bay. Close (a block or two) to beach access, and a short walk from the Hanalei pier and town, this location was wonderful for our family. We love a beachfront rental, but this was very close and ended up working out great. One thing we noticed was there is a fair amount of traffic noise early in the morning which with a toddler sleeping was of concern. But the bedrooms have AC, so we closed bedroom windows which helped.

We bike or walk right over to the beach or the pier. We can walk to town to eat or shop. The house is well stocked with everything you might need. Each room has its own air conditioning units as well.

We loved our stay at Pua Melia. A few minutes walk to the beach, a few more to the sweet town of Hanalei, what's not to love?! Pua Melia is beautifully-decorated and well-appointed, not just your run-of-the-mill a rental unit. The owners have lovingly looked after the home and it was a joy to stay there. Kaua'i Vacation Rentals are always responsive and helpful and we would highly recommend them.

This was about the 10th home we have rented over the many years of visiting Hanalei. It is an outstanding rental. The home was clean in excellent shape. It is one of the best. Sounds of the ocean at night, walk to the beach at daylight. Little noisy with traffic- but that's minor compared to the at home feeling we had. The a/c works great in bedrooms and that was a haven for those extra hot days. WE used the screen on the patio to help deflect hot afternoon sun. The home has the ambience of a Hawaiian home! We would love to return to this spot!!! The town is a couple blocks away. It has beautiful landscape! Plus the view of the ocean, and the waterfalls on the backdrop of the mountains. We saw up to 6 waterfalls on one afternoon! Wow absolutely gorgeous! The beds were terrific! There wasn't anything we didn't like about the home or location! Thanks to the owners what a lovely home you shared with our little family!. Thank you to Kauai Vacation Rentals. They went above and beyond and even checked in on us a couple days in making sure everything was great!

My wife, two-year-old daughter, and I had a splendid extended stay (40 days) at Pua Melia. The house is laid out very well, with all the necessary amenities. There is traffic on Weke Road but the house is well built and you can basically eliminate noise by closing the doors and windows if necessary. AC in all three bedrooms is a big plus are are the many fans (indoor and on the lanai).

Lucy and Co. at Kauai Vacation Rentals are very professional and fabulous to work with. They run a top-notch operation and I recommend them without hesitation for a stay on Kauai.

We had dinners on the deck most nights after realizing it was the best spot for dinner. Hearing the Surf, Rain and Songbirds will be a sweet memory to tide me over till next time.

Absolutely wonderful!

Our family stayed 7 nights in this wonderful home. Not a single detail was missed from the beautiful views from every room to the extremely comfortable bedrooms which included A/C!!! Additionally, our kitchen was equipped with more than my own home and the dining area in and out are very nice. We would love to return to Hanalei and stay here again!

This home is spectacular!

The house "breathes Kauai"! Enjoyed the deck, living room, views and the breeze at night in the master bedroom.

Highly recommended

Four of us had the pleasure of staying at Pua Melia April 16 through April 23, 2013. Pua Melia is beautiful, comfortable, spacious, nicely decorated, and well maintained. It was very clean upon our arrival. The location surely must be one of the best in Hanalei. The beach is a five minute walk and an easy walk into town. We spent a lot of time on the spacious deck with magnificent views of the ocean. I highly recommend staying at Pua Melia for a memorable Kauai vacation.
