kauai- Rental home or Hotel?
Hey Guys,
I Love Kauai and I'm going back soon. In the past I have always stayed in Hotels but I think I'm ready for something a little more private and quiet. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

I rented a tiny little house in Hanalei. It was private, mostly quiet, and in a great location.

It's fairly rustic (shower is outside), but we liked it a lot.

What time of year and what budget per night are you looking at? Also would you be open to a condo as well? I have found lots of helpful posters over on the Kauai TA forums but you need to provide this info to get meaningful help and advice.

We love staying in Hanalei. We've rented from Na Pali Properties (Plantation Cottage) http://www.napaliprop.com/plantation-cott.html and loved it.
We also rented Devaki's Hanalei Vacation Rental http://www.vrbo.com/18278 and liked it.
Kauaivacationrentals.com has a large selection of homes in Hanalei.
If you click on my name there are two Kauai trip reports listed in trip reports. One is is from 2005 and one from 2007. Some of the info might be outdated, but my impressions of the island and of Hanalei are still accurate.

Condo are the way we go every time we visit Kauai. Have stayed at Pali Ke Kua, Sea Lodge, Poipu Makai, and others. Love the fact that I don't have to eat out for every meal - the choice is mine. Also like the room that one has renting a condo. Hotels can be pretty boring after a while with just a bed and maybe a chair. Our preference is that we have ocean view and preferably ocean front so we can watch the waves crash on the shore when we sit on the lanai. Google what you are looking for, check out VRBO and places that are mentioned in numerous reports on Fodors. Have a wonderful time. We are heading back in 30 days for my 65th b'day
