Spacious, clean and furnished with enough to make Kauai your home for a few days, a week or more. Great value for the comfort and hassle free stay. Sometimes cottage rentals can feel like you're staying in some strangers house. Not so here: we instantly felt at home and everything seemed fresh. They have lots of stuff to borrow for... More

We wanted to experience traditional island living and discovered it at Fern Grotto Inn. We stayed in Canal A from April 21 - May 4. It was perfect for the two of us. Very cozy, comfortable, and clean. We loved the beautiful grounds. The amenities such as complimentary use of the washer and dryer, gas grill, beer in the refrigerator... More

I highly recommend the Ohana House to anyone who likes to stretch out and enjoy the extra space that a large house has to offer at the end of a long day spent enjoying Kauai. The Ohana House has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a living room, a large dining room and a nice sized kitchen. My girlfriend and I rented... More

We recommend the Ohana House to anyone that wants a little more space or is looking for a home-like atmosphere. My husband and family members rented this property the week of 4/15-thru 4/22/13. We found it to be clean, comfortable and very well stocked. We loved the big, beautiful open dining/kitchen. The ceiling fans kept the house cool so there... More

It was very cute, clean, very comfortable and in a perfect location. The grounds around the different cottages were beautiful also. Paul was a very gracious host and allowed us to use the... More

We stayed at the River Cottage for 4 nights and it was a very quaint little place. The grounds were beautiful, it was quiet and the cottage was just that...very cottage/getaway feel. It was lucky there was A/C as we would have melted at night. They had everything one needs for quick meals and even had a little food in... More

We highly recommend the fern grotto inn. The coco cottage we stayed at beautifully furnished and we had a privat garden with a hammock. There is a laundry available and a phone which was a great help to book activities and reserve in restaurants. Paul is absolutely great! He gives you all the privacy you want but if you need... More

My wife and I stayed in the Garden house. We grilled our dinners out on the grill. The small fridge in the cottage was large enough to store a few meals, and the washer and dryer were perfect for cleaning up after a long day hiking. Great place. Great location. Great wifi!!

My boyfriend and I stayed in the River cottage for 4 nights. Excellent location in central Kapaa, about halfway between the North and South shores. We immediately felt at home here, even as the only gay couple staying during the 4 nights. Well equipped place with kitchen, stove/sink, dishes, ample supplies, stocked fridge. Beautifully upkeep of the grounds surrounding this... More

We stayed in the Garden Cottage for a week, the perfect location if you're interested in a very short walk up to beach and the 2 mile bike path south along the beach through Lyndgate Park. The bike path heading north is under construction but will soon connect with the completed 4-mile path that starts at the Kapaa boat launch... More
