Fresh breeze and pounding surf to sleep by and rolling waves and long sandy beach to catch some rays and r n r. It is quite a way from other activities, but it’s a small island if over crowded resorts are not your thing then this is it. Loved the stay, loved the house. ##### Daniel S.

This is the kind of place you hope is available every year because you'll never want to stay anywhere else. It's a 30-45 minute drive to the side of the island that has all the hotels and tourist spots, to us that was a bonus. Right across the street is a beach that was never crowded. The road in front is a highway, but there was never high traffic. ##### Marlana S.

It's a wonderful, quiet neighborhood near great beaches and the lovely town of Waimea. The house is beautiful, spacious, and well-appointed, with dreamy ocean views, and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring the West and South sides of the island and being away from the primary tourist areas. Be aware that there is road noise from the highway at all hours, so the primary suite can be a bit noisy at night. Regardless, we loved our time here and highly recommend it. We would absolutely stay here again. ##### Hope N. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris S. 8 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breathtaking We absolutely enjoyed our stay - we had seven people in our party (couple, single and party of four with two 7yr olds). We had plenty of room inside as well as two lanais set up to relax and an outside living area. You could watch the sunset each evening, walk across the street and sit on the rocks next to the ocean with your coffee and gaze up at the stars at night. The house was beautifully decorated and provided plenty of space for family gatherings. ##### Chris S.

The home is spacious and comfortably furnished.However it is a bit dated and some things are in need of repair.We had an ant problem that was resolved but only after half our stay was over.The host was responsive to our needs but not really empathetic ..saying things like “ that’s surprising or that’s interesting “ when I reached out about some issues. a bit off-putting. We traveled so far and spent a goodbye of money so the problems did not ruin our stay. We enjoyed every day and saw many wonderful things. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Bailey B. 1 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Little ways out but overall a great house. We were so excited to stay right next to the beach, except when we went the Kekaha beach was not allowing people to enter the water so you were stuck on land. A little ways up by Waimea there was a great beach especially for little kids called the salt Ponds and then we spent a lot of time in Poipu because we wanted to be in the water not just on the beach. The house was great though! It had everything we needed and was so peaceful at night! We would definitely go back at a different time of year! ##### Bailey B. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana L. 17 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Kekaha House I chose this home due to its ability to house the 9 of us. We consisted of 3 couples and 3 small children. The lay out was perfect for our family and we had plenty of space. The lanai was large and the perfect place to have meals together. This home is on the west side of the island (dryer side). The beach was amazing and had great boogie boarding for experienced swimmers. The excursions were about 15-45 min away from the house, but not a problem for us. This is a more local side of the island and not full of many tourists. The overall experience was 5 stars for us and we plan on returning in 2025. ##### Diana L. Stayed 13 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina J. 11 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home This house was perfect for our group. Beautiful home, great setup for our family plus a family friend (master upstairs and another large bedroom with en suite on the first floor). Lots of areas to sit and recharge (multiple lanais). The beach view was amazing. Lots of amenities in the home to use (condiments, spices, beach toys, snorkels, other beach accessories). This side of the island is much less touristy but that is what we were looking for. Close to lots of Waimea Canyon hiking and several really great restaurants in the town of Waimea. The beach was beautiful but not a swimming beach for kids but our kids really enjoyed playing in the sand and watching the waves. Overall, great place and would choose to stay again. ##### Tina J.

Our stay was exceptional as we started mornings with coffee and family time on the lanai’s and had a wonderful time enjoying the peace and quiet of the west side of the island. There was an issue with the AC upstairs but I commend Chad and his on-island team Keenan for being creative with solutions to immediately get portable units to make our evenings more comfortable. The layout of the home is perfect offering all places to congregate and also privacy in evenings. Wimea canyon is only a 15 minute drive with lots of private/quiet beaches away from the typical touristy areas of hanalei, Lihue, and poipu. We had a car and were able to drive and explore the entire island with ease. Thank you Shaka Hala for helping us celebrate my mom’s 70th birthday with joy, relaxation, and beauty!! Highly recommend staying here! ##### Benjamin d.

This was a great home to host everyone for a BBQ. There was plenty of seating and dining ware. We made use of the many available games. We enjoyed yoga on the walkable beach across the street. The house fit all of us so comfortably. We were even able to accommodate a surprise visit from my nephew. There was plenty of towels, both bath and beach. Tons of beach chairs and umbrellas that came in handy. We were a bit away from the action which was a blessing and a hassle from time to time but I still chose the best house for an amazing week! The only things I can recommend would be new seating cushions for the lanai. And perhaps just a tad more attention to the detailed cleaning. The house in general was immaculate, it was just the little things that i noticed such as dirty hand railings - but it was no big deal. Overall - a WONDERFUL PROPERTY! I would highly recommend. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Craig S. 14 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Paradise and then some From the moment we walked into Shaka Hale, we knew it was worth the price of admission. The house is stunning, incredibly spacious and definitely elegant. The furniture is beautiful and the decorations are simply perfect. With stunning breathtaking views we miss already. The master suite is outstanding, great space, amazing views and we had coffee on the lanai every morning, watched the sunset over Ni’ihau and just relaxed out there at the end of the day. A TV in the room would have made it 110% perfect, but there is one in the spacious area just outside of the master. The downstairs master leads to the screened in porch, which was fantastic and the other 2 bedrooms had plenty of space and storage. The incredible kitchen includes a countertop that goes on forever. Everything you could think needing of in a kitchen was there including a spacious pantry. The location is incredible, away from the hotels and tourists. The beach just up the road is incredible; not crowded, large beach and those amazing sunsets. Just 2 miles away is a well stocked Big Save, restaurants and our favorite, JoJo’s shaved ice. There are tons of games & puzzles and the wifi was excellent. Plenty of towels, chairs & beach gear. This house was perfect for our vacation, definitely made everything feel elegant on the next level. Chad was incredibly informative and an absolutely outstanding host. We would definitely highly recommend this property and hope to be back ourselves. ##### Craig S.

It wasn't spotless, but was clean enough. The disappointment was location. We realized we were going to be in an out of the way place and this is what we wanted. We hiked in the canyon and enjoyed eating in Waimea. The photos make it seem like there is some sand in front; that is not the case. One review said in the winter there is sand, but there was not in December. There was a bit of a beach to the left and a larger beach to the right. Both were not clean and had people living in tents on or near them. There were lots of cigarette butts on the sand in both locations. I didn't' want to get in the water but was hoping to walk along the beach. The only option was along a very busy road. We knew there was a road but didn't anticipate it being this busy so far out of the way. Lots of traffic at all hours, which was quite loud in the house, especially the front side. The master upstairs had headlights shining in all night, even with the shades pulled. Again, the house itself is nice but it wasn't the quiet, relaxed vacation we were looking for with all the traffic and the dirty beach areas. ##### Lisa O.

Even though it does sit on a fairly busy road, the beach is right across the street, and it is great location on the island close to so many fun things to do. Until next time Kauai...Mahalo!! ##### Angela W. Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael F. 23 Aug 2025 #### Perfect place for family fun. We loved that easy access to the beach. We were especially grateful for all of the beach, toys, chairs, beach, umbrellas, coolers, snorkel gear and everything else we could want a good time at the beach. Thank you for providing these things as well as a great supply of laundry and dishwasher soap. Everything was so easy. ##### Michael F.
