Property and location were great and just as advertised. Only reason for not a 5 star review was the heavy construction next door that was not communicated.

Our stay at the Malolo cottage was perfect for our family, even with 2 kids under 3. Close enough to walk to the beach, comfortable living space in the house, and quiet neighborhood. The house has everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again next time we visit Hanalei Bay!

This cottage was charming and beautifully located. We felt like we were staying in a cabin, but instead of a cabin by a lake (we are from Minnesota) it was a cabin by the ocean! This was our favorite place to stay by far. Cottage had all the necessities and then some:). We will be back.

What you see is what you get, in a good way. Simple, but comfortable house in a great location close to the beach and town. We (a couple) had a great 5 day stay. While not ultra-luxurious, the house was spotless. We only made breakfast and drinks, but found everything we needed in the kitchen. Couch and bed were comfortable. We were there in warm Sept. and never needed AC. Overall, would recommend!!

Cottage pretty much as expected but inside shower is really small stall. Great for a couple; would not want to stay there with more adults. The covered patio is really nice, views of mountains to west. Nice to be able to park right outside the door. Very quiet neighborhood. Beach access is too far to walk carrying chairs and stuff. Management company was responsive and helpful.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying in Malolo Cottage! We're big fans of Hanalei, and even though it's obviously gentrifying, we're so grateful that there are still some simple homes there, like in the "old days." I did yoga every night under the stars on the soft lawn. We ate breakfast every morning on the lanai. We went to the beach every day, and used the washer/dryer and the clothes line to keep our clothes clean and dry during our stay. Oh, and did I mention the orange trees in the yard? And of course everything in Hanalei is walking distance. We can't wait to come back. Mahalo for your hospitality!

We only used our rental car from and to the airport, enjoyed walking every morning and strolling to the shops and restaurants. Na Pali Properties were available and helpful, the house was clean and well equipped for our needs. If you want a little piece of heaven - try it out.

10/10

This was our 4th trip to the north shore and we wanted to have a solo family trip (no friends or family) this time. The Malolo Cottage was the perfect choice. The short walk to the beach and large yard made our trip very relaxing and memorable. The property managers were very communicative and reminded us to put out the trash each week. They also helped us quickly when the internet went offline during a wind storm. The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property for a couple or a small family like ours.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was pretty perfect.On past visits we have stayed closer to Pavilions than Pine Trees, and this was much better, with less traffic and a short stroll to an uncrowded beach. the cottage was well ticked with all essentials,, boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkels, etc.A beach umbrella might have been nice, too. The kitchen had everything needed except counter space for food prep. The beds are very good. Neighbors were never noisy. Our favorite dinner out was at Barracuda. Great food.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We lovingly referred to this rental as our family surf shack for the week. My partner and I worked remotely during our stay which worked out perfectly because during down hours we could easily walk to and from the beach. Hanalei is such a gem and was a perfect surf and boogie board spot for our family.
