Happy New Year! As we step into 2026, I’ve been thinking about what really makes a home. For me, it’s not just about the walls or the roof—it’s about the lifestyle that comes with it. I feel so lucky to live in Hanalei, raise my kids here, and be immersed in this community.
What’s Life Like Here in Hanalei?
If you work hard like I do, you’ll appreciate this—Hanalei isn’t just a place to live, it’s a way to slow down and breathe, even on your busiest days. My mornings often start early (sometimes as early as 5 am calls!), but stepping outside for a peaceful walk along Hanalei Bay before the world wakes up sets the tone for my day.
And some mornings, when I can, I sneak in a 7 am yoga class at Black Coral nearby. It’s amazing how just a little movement and calm can refresh your whole outlook before the hustle begins.
Running errands or popping out for groceries? I usually hop on my bike—it’s a quick ride to the post office or the market. And meeting friends for dinner? That’s a bike ride away too, whether it’s Bar Acuda or Ama. No traffic jams, no parking hassles—just simple, easy living in a community that feels like family. Kids might even stop by your door with baked goodies to share!
It’s those little moments, all within a couple miles surrounded by stunning mountains, that make Hanalei so special.
