Welcome to The Ho'ona Beach House – Your Oceanfront Kauai Retreat

Escape to The Ho'ona Beach House on the beautiful sunny south shore of Kaua'i. The Beach House is an ocean-front home, sitting literally 30 feet from the water's edge with 210-degree ocean views. You can hear the crashing waves from every room of this impeccable 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home. The lanai/deck stretches out from the rear of the house, giving you a perfect spot to watch the local surfers catch the massive breaking waves on the outside reef, enjoy the breathtaking sunset each evening, or watch the playful sea turtles at the water’s edge. At night, your reality will seamlessly become a dream with the sound of the waves just outside. The Ho'ona Beach House is a spotlessly clean, open-style, single-story Hawaiian floorplan with glass walls across the back.

The property features a front-row ocean view from almost everywhere inside this 3-bedroom, 3-bath home. It is completely private with tropical surroundings, sitting on the shore of a tranquil cove with lava rock and coral reefs on both sides, giving you an unobstructed ocean view and privacy from neighbors. In 2021, a major renovation and re-build of the Ho'ona Beach House was completed. Everything inside and out is modernized and brand new (from windows, doors, roof, cabinetry, appliances, fixtures, flooring to even the furniture, etc.). The 1800 square foot home features an enormous, open living-dining area, a fully stocked gourmet kitchen with a large pantry, and inside laundry facilities. A California king bed is in the master bedroom. The second and third bedrooms both offer queen-sized beds. All baths have Caesarstone countertops and top-of-the-line European-designed fixtures. One-piece Toto toilets are in all three baths All linens and towels are provided, including plenty of large beach towels.

The Ho'ona Beach House is a custom designed tropical retreat. The interior has glass walls that open wide to the large lanai, where waves lap the reef only steps away. A gas barbecue is outside on the deck, for casual cooking. Ceiling fans are in each room, to enhance the cool, scented breeze of the trade winds. And, when you return from the beach, or if you just want to cool off, an outdoor, hot/cold shower is in a private corner of the rear yard under tall coconut trees, overlooking the sparkling ocean and reef. After your stay, you will cherish the memories of your visit for a lifetime.

A Magical Place to Stay

Reviewed on 2023-04-16 by Mike Fioravanti , Orange County, California

Overall

Kauai is a magical place by itself but staying at The Beach House took it a whole other level. Our family of five spent 10 days in this amazing home and it will be a trip that's hard to beat (unless we come back and stay again). Tom is a very gracious host that takes tremendous pride in his home --- and it shows. This isn't an average vacation rental that caters to the masses. Instead, Tom has selected premium touches, appliances and conveniences that make staying here so much more enjoyable. He truly cares about making everything perfect for his guests. And, of course, the location is spectacular. Seeing and hearing the ocean yards away melts away any stress that we brought from the mainland. Plus being able to walk to the local restaurants and shops was so convenient...we did this almost daily. The property is close by many beach choices that offer something for everyone such as Baby Beach, great snorkeling, and our favorite, Kiahuna Beach. We highly recommend The Beach House and booking with Tom. He's a wonderful person and we feel like we have a trusted friend in Koloa now as part of our extended Ohana.

My husband and I along with my sister and her husband stayed at this property. It was like you were on the ocean. It was a beautiful property. It was convenient to restaurants and shopping. We were within walking distance of a nice plaza to eat and shop. The house had nice amenities and the beds were comfortable to sleep in. The house was very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay here. The owner was easy to work with. I would highly suggest this property.

Overall

"Best vacation ever" (quote from every single family member). Words can't describe the views from inside and outside this house. Picture perfect sunrises and sunsets, from the living room to the carport. One of the best features (kids' fav) was the hot water outdoor (open) shower and being able to rinse off while looking at the ocean, seeing the many turtles that feed next to the seawall and hearing the waves.The entire house has recently been renovated and appliances are all new and functional. We love having a washer/dryer available (less packing and less laundry to do when returning home). Tom is an amazing host and went out of his way to make our vacation special/memorable. The Beach House is a 5-10 min walk for unforgettable sunsets. There are too many positive attributes to name, can't think of any outstanding negatives. While "at home," leave the sliding doors/screens open during the day to enjoy the breeze and ocean sounds (bugs will stay outside or go back out quickly during the day). 8-9 turtles came to visit and feed almost every afternoon. Oceanfront house with beaches just a 5 minute walk away. Perfect for those seeking R&R and spectacular views with amenities from home. Not recommended for those seeking an all-inclusive resort experience.

Overall

This beachfront house was an absolute gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility that our entire family enjoyed. From the moment we stepped foot onto the property, we were greeted by the mesmerizing sights and sounds of the ocean, creating an ambiance that is nothing short of magical. The open-concept layout allows for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with large sliding doors that frame breathtaking views. Watching the turtles and the surfers from the porch became our family’s daily routine. The amenities were top-notch, and everyone having their own bathroom was a huge bonus. Tom was a great host, and you could see the love he has for this beautiful home. We highly recommend and would love to come back soon and stay here again and again.

A Fabulous Two Weeks!

My family spent 2 weeks in the Beach House during August 2024. The home is pristinely clean and well-cared-for. The owner was friendly and helpful. We watched up to 8 sea turtles at a time feed on mossy rocks from the deck. Snorkeling is accessible in front of the home. We enjoyed the beautiful location, sunsets, and wildlife all from the gorgeous property. Restaurants, grocery, shopping, other adventures are within easy driving. We had a great time and hope to return in the future. Mahola!

Bucket List Trip

Overall

This is an exceptional property. We stayed here with two other couples on the first stop of our Hawaiian bucket list trip. The home is meticulously maintained and well appointed. The highlight is the location. Situated 20 feet from the water you will entertained with daily visits from Hawaiian turtles and awestruck by the nightly sunsets. If you're traveling to Kaui I highly recommend considering this property

Last Hurrah

Overall

We have just retuned back home after what can only be described as a long, absolute amazing and unforgettable holiday. Just under 7 weeks in total, visiting and spending time at some incredible places in the World. Having started at Honolulu and then spending a week at Kona, we caught a flight to the French Polynesia, spending time in Tahiti, Bora Bora, Mo'orea, Raiatea, some spectacular oceans and views. We retuned back to Hawaii and spent our final week in Kauai. I can safely say, not only did we find Island of Kauai unbelievably beautiful but the Beach House we stopped in was also spectacular. The views of the ocean, the noise of the sea, the cool breeze flowing through the house, were just splendid. Turtles outside, what a sight and no more than a minute walk, if that, you come to a sandy beach, small enough to be private (so to say) and big enough to enjoy. Tom, the owner, what a great guy. He was so welcoming, accommodated to all our needs, the house was immaculately clean, and this in all fairness is an understatement, it was sparkling. Seeing is believing. Abundance of towels, beach towels, probably the most comfortable beds we slept in during our travels, the furniture was of a very high standard along with the appliances which you can see were the best that money can buy. No expense sparred for sure. Tom, well, i can only say that he is a very caring, kind and passionate man. Went over and beyond to ensure our stay was pleasant. It was a great ending to a wonderful and unforgettable holiday. Would highly recommend Tom and The Beach House.

The Beach House is Amazing!

Overall

"Amazing, simply amazing! Hoona Beach House was the perfect place for us. It is newly renovated, spotless, spacious, and perfectly located. There are two large double sliding doors leading to the oceanfront lanai with a spectacular view of the ocean and when opened a wonderful breeze blows across the living room. It is only a 2-5 minute walk to some of the best snorkeling on the island. Shops, restaurants, surfing and various beaches are just 5-10 minutes away. We loved our hikes to the Waimea Canyon, Heritage Trail and Kapalua, our surfing lessons and a sailing trip up around the Napali coast (absolutely gorgeous!) However, some of our favorite things were right there at Ho'ona Beach House, reading under the coconut tree, watching the turtles, relaxing on the lanai and having family dinner's at home. This was my first time to Kaua’i and as the week went by, I appreciated more and more the location of Hoona Beach House and how special it is. The host is awesome; he takes great pride and joy in sharing his home with others. He is always available for questions and help. I highly recommend staying here and I can’t wait to return!!"

If you go to Hawaii to be close to the ocean the Beach house is where you want to stay. My girlfriend Barbara and I spent a week there and enjoyed it very much. The ocean is right there visible to you from anywhere in the house and especially on the deck which is only 10 yards from the water. You can't capture it completely in pictures you have to stay there to experience it. The house was very clean and comfortable and has everything you need to enjoy an extended stay. The owner Tom Sterling was very gracious, helpful and welcoming and we left feeling we had made a new friend. The location was another factor that made this property exceptional. You can walk to some very good restaurants, shopping and Baby Beach is 5 doors down from the house. Other beaches are also close by. We have stayed at 8 other properties on Kauai and this is our favorite by far. We are already looking forward to coming back next year.

Great property. Very well maintained.

This house is simply amazing in location and beauty! This is our 2nd time to stay at Tom's place in the last 5 years. The house is stunning and immaculate. The kitchen is supplied with anything you may need (we actually had Thanksgiving dinner there). The relaxing sounds of the ocean is heard even with the windows closed. Tom was readily available to help with any activities we wished to do while on the Island. The Beach House Restaurant is a short walk and was excellent. If you want a relaxing vacation watching the turtles each day and listening to the beautiful sounds of the ocean, this is a must stay!

Excellent local with fabulous view of the ocean.

This was our second visit to Tom's beach house, and it was lovely! The house is just as we remembered it. The views are exceptional - we loved sitting out by the wall and watching the turtles nip at the rocks, and the crabs run away from us... It was a very peaceful and restorative vacation! Just what we needed. It was quite hot the week we were there, and during a couple hours a day we wished there was more breeze or a/c (or portable fans?), but we either just went swimming or out exploring instead. Last time we were here, it wasn't in August, so the heat wasn't so bad! We went snorkeling about twice a day - and saw lots of fish, a few eels, lots of honu, and even a sting ray! Watching the surfers was also a treat. The parakeets every night and morning were quite the sight - thousands of them - we loved watching them fly back and forth. And we were there during the Perseids, so each night we sat outside and watched the shooting stars! The house is very convenient to a small grocery store, drug store, and a number of restaurants, so we were glad to be able to walk to a bunch of places. I would recommend stocking up at the Safeway or something near the airport, though. Tom was very kind and always available if we needed anything - it was always a pleasure chatting with him. We definitely plan on returning! Thanks, Tom, for again sharing your lovely home with us!

The Beach House is in a primo location in Poipu, Kauai. You can watch the surfers from sunrise to sunset, and seeing the green Hawaiian sea turtles feeding around noon every day from the backyard - which is THE OCEAN! You can easily access the beautiful ocean as well for some snorkeling or surfing. An outdoor shower and hose help with all those ocean/sandy days. The home itself is immaculate, with ample room for 6 guests. It has a washer/dryer, beach towels and a well stocked kitchen for all your needs. The entire backside of the house is glass that opens up to the outdoors, where you will spend almost all of your time! There is no A/C so it can be adjustment for those used to A/C, but the windows are easily opened to allow for cross winds and cooling inside the home. This area of the neighborhood is quiet. Very close to all the shops and restaurants and great beaches! Thank you Tom for being a great host and being available for any needs! We love Kauai!

The photo showing the table on the lanai overlooking Kuhio Cove and the Pacific Ocean says it all! This was the PERFECT vacation spot for our family to enjoy all that Kauai has to offer. The location is excellent--directly overlooking the ocean. It's near Spouting Horn, the botanical garden, historic Old Town Koloa, the sandy beach at Poipu, and some great shopping and dining. The home is PRISTINE. When I say that, you can't imagine how clean and well kept this home is. Probably the cleanest vacation rental we've ever stayed in. The kitchen is very well stocked with all you'll need and well organized. The owner, Tom, is very accommodating and explains the home and the area in great detail upon your arrival. He's available for any needs or questions and is a gracious host. The beds are comfortable. Much better than traditional hotel fare. Multiple windows (screened) allow enjoyment of the trade winds and the sounds of waves lapping on the shore. We particularly enjoyed the use of the outdoor shower. Showering while overlooking the ocean by the light of the moon and stars was a treat! The scent of Plumeria provided a nice welcome every time we entered the house. Our son enjoyed treating us to some meals on the grill. Very nice to have. Multiple seating options for meals, lounging, etc. Views of the ocean from kitchen, master bath, master bedroom, extra bedroom, dining room, den, etc. Honestly, only one room in the house (3rd bedroom) is the only place where you don't see the ocean! The back yard is wonderful. Grassy lawn and palm trees make sitting out and enjoying the sun and scenery so enjoyable. Our favorite nearby beach (and scenic views) at Mahaulepu beach and Makauwahi Cave were only about 10 min drive. We enjoyed eating and shopping at the Shops of Kukui'ula which are literally walking distance away. The Wednesday Market was such a treat (Sugarloaf pineapple can't be missed!) Try Uncle's Shave Snow! YUM! (or Luppert's Kauai Pie" Ice Cream) It's only 20 minutes from the Kauai Coffee Plantation and 25 minutes from the Port where tours leave for Na Pali coast. It's only about 35 minute drive to Waimea Canyon which we thoroughly enjoyed. A short 25 minute drive to Lihue (the capital and airport). I can't say enough good about this property, the owner, the island of Kauai, etc. Great place to enjoy family time. If you are going to Kauai, this is a hidden gem! (If you want sandy beach, it's a short walk)

This property is blessed with a truly unique location, just feet from the ocean and an owner that appreciates it's uniqueness . Tom greeted us at The Beach House when we arrived and gave us the grand tour . He already knew the five of us by name . Every potential need had been addressed in advance . The three bedroom home was immaculate with all the amenities clearly labelled and easy to find . The mattresses are new , sheets crisp and towels fluffy . The layout of the home maximizes the ocean view . At our request Tom recommended restaurants ( Beach House and Tide Pools ) , the best beaches to snorkel ( Lawai and Po'ipu ) and places to shop for food ( Big Save in Koloa ) . Each and every recommendation was spot on . The helicopter flight on the second day ( Blue Hawaii , hope you get Barrett as your pilot ) was incredible . Tom checked in with me a couple of times via phone to ensure we were happy and that all our needs were met . We have rented homes in the U.S. , Caribbean and Italy and we have not been more pleased with our experience than our stay at The Beach House . There is no question about a return visit , it is just a matter of when. Well done Tom ! Michael Case Tuscaloosa , Al

Our family had a fantastic time at ‘Tom’s Beach House. The home was immaculate and there was attention to every detail to make our stay enjoyable. Tom is a kind, friendly host who took great pains to meet us when we arrived and show us the features of the house. It sits right next to the water; turtles swim out front and whales can be seen in the distance. There is good snorkeling a few steps away, and it’s a 3 minute drive to wonderful beach diving at old Koloa Landing. There is a lanai running across the back of the house which makes for amazing sunset viewing well having cocktails in the evening. One of the highlights of the home is the outdoor shower where you can bask in a cascade of warm water under beautiful palm trees while listening to crashing ocean waves. It is s short walk up to the shopping area where there are fun stores and great dining. We were very sad to leave and are looking forward to coming back again as soon as possible. Mahalo, Tom!

This is a great property. It provides a fabulous view, is well maintained and reflects the owner's attention to detail. Sea turtles feeding in the morning, whales on the horizon, incredible sunsets and a deck that provides more than a 180 degree vista are among the key components of the house. Tom clearly wants his visitors to enjoy the island and the property and is a very responsive owner. Having stayed at a number of VRBO and Airbnb properties, we would give this one our highest ranking.
