1. Location - I loved the feeling of being in the tropics. Views were wonderful. Place was lovely.
2. Short on smiles and felt rushed on departure. Cleaning lady arriving early and knocking to see when we were leaving. Didn't have time to have breakfast and make sandwiches. We had called office to see if we could leave later but they hadn't returned the call. We had called on a Saturday tho'.
3. The sheer beauty, sounds, smells of Kauai.
4. Restaurants pricey and Bouchons' sushi was positively the worst sushi we have ever had.
7. Wait until they have refurnished the living room - then we will be back.
9. Bring Deet and a good after mosquito bite cream and hiking shoes.
10. Doing the kayak/hike/waterfall trip.

The rental was very good and we were suprised to find so many of the things we wanted for the beach all ready provided for. These included beach mats, snorkling gear, beach towels and ice chests. If we get the oppurtunity to come again we will consider staying their again.

Nestled off the beaten path between two mountains, Kuraoka Cottage Haena is a lovely and peaceful cottage home. The treetop views of the mountains and distant waterfalls were beautiful, and the gentle sound of rainfall on the rooftop was cleansing to the soul. Do not expect an artificial "condo experience". Kuraoka is an opportunity to "borrow" the lovingly and artistically decorated cottage of a local owner and experience living within the Haena community.

I do not suggest that you try to first locate the cottage after dark as my husband and I did. We found it without missing a turn, but we felt as if we were contestants on The Great Race! A hand-drawn map of the bridges we would cross would have been helpful. Do bring a flashlight. It'll help you find your way from the road to your door on cloud covered nights.

Hawaiian Beach Rentals were very professional in dealing with us. The property was well represented and they were very quick to tend to a few small glitches that arose after we had checked in.

Kurakoa Cottage Haena is ideally located near the "end-of-the-road" beaches. If we are ever able to return again, I would definitely spend more time at each beach - just soaking up the sun and sounds of the North Shore. Ke'e beach, with its crystal clear water and great snorkeling, is not to be missed! Looking for coffee and baked goods on the run? The Village Snack & Bakery Shop is a great place to stop.

We loved our stay at Kurakoa Cottage and would considered ourselves blessed if ever we could return once again!
