Tropical Bamboo Hideaway

The house has a personalized touch that made us feel truly in someone's home, not just a rental. Several quality and otherwise thoughtful touches, high quality appliances, and comfortable furniture suited to the overall decor added to our stay. The home sits on a platform three stories high; views of the ocean are narrow and between other beach front properties across the street, but the sound of the surf is present, and the walk to the beach is simply across the street. There is an elevator currently under construction, which will be a wonderful addition when completed. We liked the local feel of Hanea and the North Shore location and would not hesitate to recommend this rental. It is probably best suited for adults given the high platform and artistic appointments unless the children are sufficiently old enough to appreciate the house and be mindful of the height.

Our stay at the Bamboo House was amazing...a one of a kind experience! There are lots of great hiking trails and beaches nearby...and great restaurants just a short drive a way. After a long day of hiking or swimming, it was so great to come back to the bamboo house and be welcomed by the luxuries of home...upscale bedding and linens, fabulous spa products, all new kitchen appliances...and even an amazing movie library. We'll definitely be back soon! Jennifer & William (Palm Springs, CA) November 9, 2011

The Tropical Bamboo Hideaway served as a heavenly reunion site for my Swiss friend of forty-four years and me...From the first moment when we set foot inside the home, high above the ground, we were awestruck over the bamboo construction and the ways in which the owners have tastefully-decorated each room, with artifacts included to connect one with Hawaii's lifestyle. I particularly enjoyed the wrap-around deck, along with all of the glass slider doors giving easy access to the out-of-doors, where I enjoyed a variety of new bird calls, as well as the breaking of the waves on the beach, both day and night. We continued to marvel at the complete supply of "creature comforts" that the owners had supplied for guests throughout their home, as well as the outdoor locker, provided with an abundance of sports and outdoor equipment for our use. In summary, I would return to TBH in a heartbeat. Its location at the remote North Shore of Kauai gave me the feeling of a peaceful, healing, stress-free setting, yet where one can get to conveniences when desired....a perfect combination in my mind!

We have been to Kauai many times, but this is our first time staying on the North Shore and the first time renting a house. We and our teenage boys were enchanted by the Tropical Bamboo Hideaway. The house is beautifully crafted and we love that you filled it with art. It had everything we needed for a perfect stay, from all of the beach gear to the wonderful bath products. We are so glad to have had the TBH as our base to explore the North Shore – from Ke’e to Tunnels to all of the “secret” beaches – the book you provided “The Ultimate Guide to Kauai” was invaluable for finding all of the local treasures.

My wife and I are here with our wonderful adult kids celebrating our 30th anniversary and having one of our best vacations ever! The house is great, the location is perfect and Kauai is one of our favorite places in the world. Thanks for a fantastic week!Stu & Hillary (Los Angeles, CA) 07/09/11
