Hanalei Dolphin Cottages

"If you get the chance to call this magical place home for even one day, you are one lucky soul. This was the best possible stay I could have hoped for - the cottage was spacious with so many thoughtful touches. Patios to take in all of the breath taking views of the river and mountains. Waking up here felt like a dream with the wide open windows. A huge shoutout to Michael who manages the cottages - he gave me the warmest welcome, was super responsive and went above and beyond to ensure I got to experience the beauty of the island. Thank you for making my trip so special!! I’m noticing I almost don’t want to post this review because I want to keep this gem of a place a secret, only for the worthy."

"We visited Kaua'i over the holiday week and selected the Dolphin for our accommodation. The process - from finding, to booking, from their app to manage directions and communication and access to the property, through the stay (during which the Hanalei bridge closed for flooding over a 12-hour period when we were meant to depart) - was a perfect fit for what we sought. Walk to Hanalei beach and surf rental locations, good walkable restaurant selection, short drive up to Princeville and Kilauea. Watching the river flow past from the sofa, or sitting on the front porch and watching a half-dozen waterfalls flow down the mountainsides, was pretty idyllic. Recommended!"

"We've been coming almost every year since 2005. We love this little cottage"
