My husband and I and our 20 yr old daughter found this lovely well equipped cabin a short stroll from the beach on Trip Advisor. Correspondence from the owners was quick and thorough.There was a small mall next door and although it was close to a main road, it was very quiet. We were greeted with some lovely fruit and... More

From the time of our initial contact, Jeff was most helpful and friendly. We stayed in Hale Iki, where we found fresh fruit from the market, and really, everything we needed, from soy sauce to plastic rain ponchos. The place was sparkling clean, tastefully decorated, and well-equipped. Bed was comfortable. Our only glitch was the noise of traffic and a... More

We visited Kauai for the first time and luckily found 17 Palms through Internet searches. The owners were warm, kind, and went out of the way to make us feel welcomed--including providing us with fresh fruit they had hand picked! The cottage (Hale Iki) was clean, unique, and all around fabulous. Was definitely way better than any hotel could ever... More

My husband and I stayed at 17 Palms during our honeymoon to Kauai in early November 2011. The Hale Iki cottage was a dream come true - bright, open, airy, meticulously furnished and equipped with every last little thing you could possibly need for your stay. Ross & Jeff were hosts like none other - we were greeted with fresh... More

We stayed for a week in February and loved it! The Meli Meli home is wonderful: well-equipped, beautfully laid out with bamboo furniture, great decor, comfortable beds and lots of room for a family. The 'baby beach' was a haven - grab a boogie board from the cottage (great supplies) and let the little one (almost 3) paddle, float and... More

The location couldn't be any better. The cottage is very well equipped and the tradewinds that go through the place is the best AC you could ever ask for!

We stayed in the Meli Meli cottage in February 2012. We loved being so close to a kid-friendly beach, and having access to the boogie boards, chairs, beach towels, and umbrellas that Jeff and Ross provided. We walked to some of the local restaurants and enjoyed Mexican and Japanese food as well as a lovely bakery, all within a five... More

Our family spent the 2011 Christmas holidays on Kauai. We stayed in the Meli Meli Cottage at 17 Palms, which turned out to be the ideal place for our family of four (2 adults, 2 teenagers). We heartily concur with the detailed description the owners, Jeff and Ross, provide on the website. The cottage is tastefully furnished and extremely comfortable,... More

We were a couple staying in the Meli Meli cottage at the end of January 2012. We were able to squeeze 5 days in between other reservations. First of all I have to say that Jeff is very organized right from the start of the reservation to the key pad entry at the cottage when you arrive. The cottage is... More
