Privacy, Privacy Privacy: The Guest House is tastefully decorated with Balinese furniture and art and is immaculately maintained. It was completely renovated in 2006-7 and remains in like new condition. The meticulously maintained grounds sparkle with vibrant colors that will delight you senses. While in the home you can relax to the sound of the river gently washing over the moss covered stones in the stream. While at the house you can kick back and relax, cook up meals in the gourmet kitchen, check your email or any number of things. You'll hear the exotic bird calls of the Shama Thrush who never seem to be far away and you'll see the night fishing Grey Herons that live along the stream and make appearances all the time. You'll feel as one with nature here and you'll feel recharged as you head out each new day exploring the miracle that is North Kauai. Our tropical botanical gardens provide a truly magnificent setting in which you can totally unwind and relax.

Let Go and Feel Your Cares Float Away...: Our secluded hideaway is exceptionally private and casually elegant and is located on the grounds of River Estate which is a riverfront botanical garden between Hanalei and the northwest end of the island and a short distance upriver from Wainiha Beach. In fact you can actually paddle down the river and back from the house to the beach and into the ocean. Where else can you do that on the north shore of Kauai from a vacation rental? The unique location of this property will allow you to feel like you're in your own private sanctuary yet just outside the estate you'll find all the activities and attractions that North Kauai is famous for. It's all there at your disposal yet you can always come back to the Guest House to relax, regroup and plan your next adventure. The magical location of River Estate is steeped in positive spiritual energy and the pristine natural environment produces a feeling of true relaxation and peace to all that visit here.

Experience the magic.: Kauai is also a very unique place in the scheme of things spiritually and and River Estate is located in one of the most spiritually invigorating areas of Kauai. You will feel so at ease and in harmony with nature that you'll want to stay and enjoy the experience for as long as you can. You will feel like the world you left behind on your vacation is a thing of the past and you'll discover that there are indeed places where you can literally forget everything and just be yourselves again. This is a magical paradise where you can detach from it all and rediscover all the wonderful experiences you might have forgotten in your day to day life. The Guest House truly lives up to it's reputation and it is a place where you'll let go of all your stress, forget everything and enjoy some of life's most valued treasures....peace, tranquility and the exquisite privacy you'll find here at River Estate.

Guest Book: I just wanted to drop you a note and thank you again for the great time we had. After traveling around a bit, I have discovered there are just three kinds of places you can stay. The first kind is the kind is the one you remember you'll never stay at again, the horrible experience that becomes almost mythic over the years, as you tell and retell horror stories about the price you paid or the people who were having a limbo contest in the next room until 3 a.m. The next is the kind that you never remember. A faceless, generic and bland outpost that serves as adequate but certainly not memorable lodging. The third is the kind that yours is: Unique, providing a singular experience you can be sure you'll never find anywhere else. It was such a pleasure each morning to wake up and look out of our window, listening to the birds and watching the sun come up over the hills. River Estate made a big difference in our vacation and our lives! Todd Jones, Seattle, W
