Kauai Options

This is Menehune Hale. It's a 5000 s.f. house with 4 bedrooms and 4 baths. It also has a hot tub. I think we'll end up taking this one. The location is great, if my memory serves: the public beach is to its right (as you look at the water), and just around the point to the left is the "lagoon" area, where the snorkeling is better. Notice how you walk off the lanai right onto the beach. Sweet. Here's a map showing Anini Beach Rd. This place sits just past Anini Beach Park (the public beach), i.e. to the left of the beach park on this map.


This is Kai Malie. This one has 4 bedrooms, all with queens, and 2 bathrooms. 1900 square feet of deck wrap around the place. I called on this place, but I'm not sold on its location. Also, it sits across the road from the beach, and its view of the ocean is obscured by two homes on the beach side of the road.


This is Ka Hale 'Olu. It has 3 bedrooms plus a pair of doubles in a loft, with 2 bathrooms. It has a nicely landscaped yard and a large rear lawn. THIS ONE IS NOT AVAILABLE DURING OUR TIME.


This is Hale Ohana Anini. 3 bedrooms plus a large loft, with 3 bathrooms - also an office. This house is right across a narrow street from the beach. It's just a couple of doors down from the house I stayed in a couple of years ago. Nothing wrong with this place but it just didn't motivate me that much.



This is Anini Mua Loa. There is a main house and a guest cottage. Three bedrooms (sleeping 6) plus a bunkroom are in the main house; one bedroom (with a queen) in the cottage. 4,000 square feet of living space. The grounds look beautiful, and I think it is near the beach park. This place is very high end and I didn't check its location. That was going to be my next call until I learned the details on Menehune Hale, the one at the top of this post. You can gather that I didn't get much further.
