3 Bedroom House in Wainiha, Hanalei
The Hawai‘i you’ve always dreamed about still exists…. Tucked into nearly two acres of pristine riverfront botanical gardens, the Riverhouse at River Estate is like stepping into old Hawai‘i—undeveloped, authentic, and unhurried. As soon as you arrive you’ll feel the Hawaiian spirit take hold for the duration of your stay and it will stay with you long after you leave. Time to disconnect and reconnect with the things that are important. Time to recharge and renew…
We’ve been accommodating guests for 30 years with consistent 5-star reviews. River Estate was one of the first vacation rental properties on the internet in 1995 and the very first on Kauai! We have hosted thousands of satisfied guests many of whom have returned year after year.
Many guests have shared that the river’s gentle currents and morning bird songs became the rhythm of their days, transporting them back to a time when Kaua‘i’s beauty was raw and unspoiled. Evenings bring the scent of tropical blossoms carried on warm breezes, while the murmur of flowing water creates a natural lullaby that guests describe as peaceful and soul-restoring.
Others have expressed how coming “home” each afternoon felt like a restorative ritual, allowing them to disconnect and reset. Disconnect to Reconnect as one guest commented. The Riverhouse isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a living testament to a Kaua‘i that still thrives in its original, undeveloped heart.
Guests often mention the location’s rare blend of privacy and convenience. The 2 acre botanical gardens are private and serene, yet just a 10 minute drive east are the shops and restaurants of Hanalei, and 10 minutes west are the famous Nā Pali Coast trail and Ke‘e Beach in Hā‘ena State Park.
One very unique aspect of the property is it’s riverfront location, just 2 blocks away from a deserted beach, that can be easily accessed by paddling to from the property. You’ll feel like you have discovered a secret paradise all to yourself. Bring a lunch or paddle there by moonlight and share what few people ever experience anytime you want. There is no other property like it on Kauai and it is just one small part of why guests love to stay here.
You’ll also receive complimentary concierge servicesWe can supply paddle boards, kayaks or bikes (rented) that will be waiting for you when you arrive as well as share with you decades of local knowledge and accommodating guests helping them plan the best possible vacation while saving time and money.
