** This property is an approved vacation rental Licensed by the County of Kauai. #TVNC-5007 **24 HOUR GUEST CONTACT: Keenan Driver 808-639-0772 (guest emergencies only) Please do not call this # to book reservations
Be advised: This transient vacation rental property is located in a tsunami Evacuation Zone. Evacuation procedures are detailed in the rental agreement, as well as posted inside the house.
Beach conditions: As a note about the beach, directly in front of the property. Due to Mother Nature, currents, and seasonal changes there is a changing dynamic of the amount of beach at any given time. However, the beach is always in place, beginning just before MacArthur beach park, which is about 1/2 mile west. There are lifeguards, picnic shelters, and a shower located here.
The white sand beach goes west for many miles from there, making it one of the longest beaches on Kauai.
E Komo Mai and Welcome to Hale Akala (HOUSE OF THE SUN)
Kekaha is the last town westward along Highway 50. It is a collection of rural neighborhoods sewn together where people know each other, and will return a smile.
This contemporary home is nothing short of SPECTACULAR! Nothing like it.
Stretched out in near-constant sunshine and a long white sandy beach, the town sits at the base of Waimea Canyon. If it's raining everywhere else on Kauai, chances are it’s sunny and dry in Kekaha, especially in the winter months. Residents enjoy a laid-back atmosphere with pristine beaches, enchanting views, and a small-town lifestyle.
Above all else, this is a beach town, where everyone owns a surfboard.
This designer custom home features an open concept floor plan with high vaulted ceilings, giving the house a tropical airy feeling, perfect for that person who loves COASTAL LIVING in the SUN. As you enter through a landscaped enclosed courtyard with a water feature bridge, it welcomes you into the foyer. The first thing you notice is the open design and soaring ceilings, with a windowed wall of glass looking the ocean. The two master bedroom suites, laundry, kitchen, dining, and living areas are located on the first floor. There are two primary suites on the first floor, each with their own en-suite bathrooms.. The shower in the first suite features an Ann Sacks tiled bath with large, dual head, walk-in shower. The second bath has a large tub and shower clad in Carrera Marble.. The well equipped kitchen features a gas Wolf range and Sub Zero refrigerator, and marble counters with a very large work island, offering ample seating for family and guests. Overlooking the great room is a large lofted bedroom area, accessed by an architecturally inspired stainless steel circular staircase. The loft features the third bedroom with a sitting area, complete with a sofa and large screen TV. There is a third bathroom that has beautiful travertine throughout. From the loft, there are windows looking west, down the shore, providing views of the island of Niihau, and those famous Kekaha sunsets.
A generous ocean side lanai offers views of the Kekaha coastline to Niihau and beyond. This location, across the road from the ocean, offers BEAUTIFUL OCEAN VIEWS, and the SOUND OF CRASHING SURF, while enjoying a colorful SUNSET. Close by are several surf breaks, for that person looking for a surfing vacation. The views from this home are truly exceptional. The location of this home, in the area known as Kekaha Sunset, is near the pristine dune backed Polihale Beach Park, the hiking trails of Kokee, the stunning scenery of the Waimea Canyon, and the shopping and restaurants in Waimea town. There are two grocery stores, less than three miles from the house. For your comfort, the home is complete with a SPLIT AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM THROUGHOUT.
Come and enjoy the warmth of the sunshine, and the people who live here. You will be welcome with warm, dry weather, most any time of the year. You will not find the resort crowds here, but you can easily visit one of the resorts for a night out, and return to the serenity of this ocean side setting. This is the Hawaii of years past, which has become hard to find.
Disclosure: For your protection and ours, there are surveillance cameras mounted on the outside of this house. They are located outside only, and are for the purpose of identification should there ever be a situation where an unauthorized person attempts to enter the house.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

This property was absolutely beautiful. The landscaping outside is gorgeous - a great place to watch for geckos and birds! The inside was open and clean, with a beautiful chefs kitchen! We have two teen age sons, so it was especially helpful to have the separate rooms and living areas. Perfect for our family. We loved being in Kekaha. Quieter. Loved stopping by all the local spots. Our favorite local spot being Sunskai shave ice over near the Big Save. Would definitely stay here again. It was a dream! Mahalo!

Perfect place
My husband and I were Visiting Kuaii for the first time to celebrate a birthday with my daughter and her husband. The house is gorgeous and very clean. Landscaping is lovely. Enjoyed the sunsets and the sounds of crashing waves on the ocean just across the way. Easy access to many good sights and beaches but still out of the way to enjoy complete privacy.

Best vacation ever!
This property was AMAZING! My husband and I splurged and stayed 12 nights to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. This home felt like we were staying in a house from Architectural Digest. Gorgeous from top to bottom. We had so much fun exploring this beautiful island paradise then coming back to the house to relax. We love to cook and the kitchen was well-stocked with excellent appliances and cookware. The only downside to this property is the constant traffic noise from the highway just outside of the lanai. Thankfully the gorgeous landscaping blocks the cars, but unfortunately it’s quite loud. Even with that, we can’t fathom giving this home anything other than 5 stars. We hope to be back!

Beautiful Location in the Sun
This house is amazing and so beautiful. The sunsets are priceless from the loft and patio. Check in was so easy. It's perfect if you want to walk along the beach (you won't spend much time at this beach because it's small and other beaches are so spectacular). You can hear the waves from the bedroom. The house is located down south, which is substantially warmer than staying up north. Rent a car and drive up north- then you'll be happy to return to this location. We had clear skies and warm days. It's a quiet location and has all of the amenities. The only change that I would make is the loft bed (a full sized bed- I would opt for a smaller end table and a larger bed) and the spare bedroom (a queen sized bed on a cheap frame- my guests did not sleep well on the frame/mattress but it was a small price to pay for staying in such a lovely home). This complaint is small compared to the amazing time that we had together. They have everything in the house- separate A/C in every room, great televisions, nice BBQ gill, great linens, every kitchen supply you would need/want (outside of an air fryer- but who cares!), comfortable couches upstairs and downstairs, lovely patio furniture (perfect for yoga, coffee in the sun and/or evening dinners), and large washer/dryer with pods, a cooler, beach chairs and towels, batteries, etc. Instructions were clear. Communication was great. I would gladly return to this property. Thank you for making it feel like home.

Beautiful Home in Kauai
We really enjoyed how spacious the house was, it was perfect for our family of four. We were grateful for all the amenities included (washer, dryer, beach, chairs, beach, umbrellas). The house was very well stocked as well, with dishes, toilet paper, paper, towels, dish soap, all the little things that you often have to buy at the beginning of the trip. The views out the windows and on the lanai were absolutely beautiful and we got to see many gorgeous sunsets and sunrises. The only constructive feedback we would offer is that the house needs a bit of a deep cleaning… There were parts of the kitchen that needed, scrubbed, and areas, such as under the beds and glass surfaces that had not been cleaned in a while.

Truly Paradise
Five star property all the way! Beautifully designed house, 180 degree ocean view, less than a mile from one of the longest, most pristine beaches in all of the islands. We rent 6-7 times per year and this is by far the cleanest house we've rented. Well supplied, very responsive host, local support when needed, and in excellent condition. Its location away from the crowds in Poipu was exactly what we wanted and the weather was sunny and dry when it was raining in Lihue and Poipu. Really can't go wrong with this lovely property.

The house was great—well equipped, nicely arranged, clean, beautifully landscaped and tastefully decorated. Property manager was great, bringing us a baby crib we asked for. The only issue was the property’s proximity to what at times is a busy road, but we would certainly recommend this house to our friends.

Beautifully appointed house
The house is beautifully built and well laid out. The air flow is lovely leaving us with a constant gentle breeze and rarely needing the A/C. The kitchen is well equipped and beds are comfortable. Being in a quiet, local residential area is always our first choice. Ans in Kekaha, we were in a great position to explore Kokee and Waimea State Parks, but for good organic food we needed to drive to Hanapepe, and we spent most of our beach time and dinners in Poipu and Lawai. If we come back to the south coast of Kauai, we would happily stay in this beautiful house again!

Hidden gem
When planning our Kauai vacation, I never thought of staying on the west shore. All the travel guides push you to the north or south as the destination location for the island. But this house with its stunning and surprise-and-delight amenities and closer proximity to every adventure has sold me. We had the beach to ourselves and the local, relaxed culture made this paradise. We loved the spacious, open floor plan and private bedrooms. The showers in the bathrooms (especially the master bath) are wonderful. The outdoor shower is even heated! Scott was very responsive during the entire process and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was stocked with everything! And when we needed a boogie board - a boogie board arrived! The owner truly thought of everything including a helpful guide of the best local eats, hiking, and spots to visit. With sunny skies the entire time (and typical rain on the north and south shores), we didn't want to leave! I will admit that I even cried when we left. We truly had a fabulous time and left with some of the best memories. This place is truly a hidden gem.
