Hale Iki was just what we wanted - very clean and comfortable, and Jeff and Ross provided everything we needed for a wonderful three-week stay. All we had to do was ask (like, for a bedside lamp) and they provided with no hassle and plenty of aloha! The grill was outstanding! Beach was close by and rarely crowded. Jeff and... More

Staying at Hale Iki is a true Hawaiian experience. The house is immaculate and everything we needed to feel right at home was provided by Jeff and Ross. The location is great! A short walk to the market and just a stone's throw to the beach. We grilled and ate outside in the Kubo every night we were there. Such... More

Cozy 1 bedroom cottage (Hale Iki) and a great location - very well-equipped kitchen - 1 block walk to the beach. Centrally located to get to anywhere on the island. Incredible farmers' markets everyday of the week, two wonderful health food stores close by (one near town clock in Safeway shopping center and another in downtown Kapaa'a). Clean, neat, even...

This was for my girlfriends 50th birthday and this started the trip on a very bad note. When we arrived there were ants in the kitchen, sink, counters, table, bathroom sink and shower as well as some other type of black bug that was seen occasionally. We took it in stride and would kill them as we saw them. They... More

Please read our outstanding reviews from travelers who consistently say 17 Palms Kauai is the top rated property in our area, 96% of the time based on posted reviews. As responsible, respectful and caring owners and island residents of over seven years, we were appalled at not only the review posted by these unfortunate guests, but also by their actions... More

17 Palms Kauai was the perfect place for my wife and me on our recent trip to the Garden Island. Hale Ike cottage has everything you will need for your stay and has the most comfortable bed EVER! Located in beautiful tropical gardens and with plenty of windows to capture the tradewinds, Hale Iki was not only a great base... More

I highly recommend 17 Palms Kauai if you are looking for more private cozy lodging, apart from the typical resort experience, yet still want to be centrally located and close to good food, shopping and the beach. The furnishings are tasteful. And, although the cottages are fairly basic, they are clean, well organized and you will not lack for anything.... More

This was the PERFECT place to stay on the island of Kauai. It is centrally located making it easy to travel to both sides of the island. The grounds are lovely and private. I stayed in the Hale Iki cottage which was exceptional in every way. Jeff & Ross accounted for EVERYTHING - every need was supplied from beach towels,... More

We just loved it. As luck and timing would have it, we were fortunate enough to be able to stay in both cottages during our two weeks in September. We arrived at Hale Iki and stayed for eight nights before moving to the other side of the garden for five nights in Meli Meli. Our first week we did not... More
