Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2007

I love my job. It comes only second to how much I enjoy Kauai and the people it brings and those that stay. I work at Kauai Community College for the Dept. of Labor with the Rural Development Project. We assist the unemployed and underemployed to receive training for available careers on the island of Kauai. This is an unusual stop for me as you can see if you read my blog at http://kauaidawn.com/Kauai/DawnsAdventures!.htm I planned to work just a little but got caught up in the community here, so that plan went South. I don't write much in my blog anymore, but take a look and it will give you a great insight of what brought me to Kauai March 1st, 2005

Why the Owner Chose Lihue

I love meeting new people and sharing my knowledge of the island, so I decided to select a home that had a very private cottage with it. I knew I could not manage a mortgage on Kauai so high but figured if I used by business sense and my enormous knowledge of Kauai I'd be able to open a vacation rental so I could share and also enjoy a great home in the process. I knew this would make it possible to be able to afford to live here also. The central location on the island became a lucky plus.

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage

The benefits are enormous! Private, lovely setting; great private jacuzzi, great cooking and dining area outside. Excellent Kayak and nearby beach. The list goes on. Take a look at guests comments and you'll see the cottage is a great place to stay. http://www.vrbo.com/152617#comments

    • Great little vacation retreat! Perfect for a couple wanting to get away and do their own thing. Lots of privacy, with a super hot tub for relaxing after a day at the beach or a long hike. For an added treat, ripe avocados were falling on the deck. Try the rental kayak for a fun day on the river. Perfect central location for exploring the island. We miss our secluded bungalow and Dawn a most gracious host.

      Homeowner Response:
      Thank you so much (mahalo nui loa)... loved getting to know you two also. Dawn

    • We had a great time in Kauai and the cottage was the perfect home base for all our adventures. The place was very clean and the jacuzzi was a great perk. Being able to cook for ourselves saved a lot of money. We also ended up eating losts of fresh fruit from Dawn's yard and some we gathered on our adventures. We highly recomend the cottage for its price, location and amenities. Mahalo!

    • This place is fun! Who would've thought a jacuzzi in Hawaii would be so perfect, but after our days of hiking and kayaking, we loved coming back to it--and renting Dawn's kayak was such an adventure! A lovely little tropical yard to enjoy.

    • We had a great stay, really enjoyed our time here! Loved the grill, jacuzzi, cool slate tiling and the relaxing outdoor dining area. Dawn is a wealth of knowledge on things to do and local advice. A great place to come back to after a day of hiking. Thanks a lot Dawn!

    • Dear Dawn, thank you for our great stay at your wonderful and homely cottage. We enjoyed getting to know you and we are very thankful for your great advice. We are definitly missing your superb grill-station where we made all our delicious meals. After taking out that great kayak of yours it was heaven on earth coming back and relaxing in that awesome jacuzzi - that was already hot and waiting for us - gazing at the stars and drinking our cool white wine was unbeatable. We can only advice anybody to stay there because it is a very special place. It provides everything you can think of and with you Dawn it is perfect. Elena & Grant

    • Perfect honeymoon nest! Awoke to beautiful songbirds each day! No phone was a great advantage of the "get away from it all" privacy. (Yes, our cellphones worked fine--when we FELT like turning them on!) Surrounded by lush, flowering foliage, adding even more intimacy. This was the optimum distance away from any noisy highway, in spite of being about 5 minutes from the airport car rental places. No noisy kids or drunk hotel guests stomping outside your doors or guests competing against you to use the hot-tub. All in all, a VERY private hill-side hide-away to rest in after taking in Kauai sights. We highly recommend it, especially if you're tired of the regular hotels!

    • Dawn, Mahalo!!!! Michael and I had a wonderful time. The rental was totally amazing. I loved the decor and the bed was extremely comfortable. The mini kitchen w/the barbeque gas grill cooked some delicious meals. The baked sweet potatoes w/brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter cooked quickly on the grill and tasted scrumptious. Even though it rained 4 of the 8 days we were here, we still found many magnificent opportunities. Poipu beach was the ever faithful back up for rainy days. I loved seeing the sea turtles at Anini beach, Poipu Beach, and the Spouting Horn. The rainbows at Waimea Canyon were truly spectacular. This is the greatest vacation Michael and I have had in many years. Thanks for all the wonderful tour guide advice it truly helped make our trip the fabulous experience it was. We would definitely recommend coming here to all our friends and have plans to come back again. M ahalo!!! Amy & Michael Brown Layton, UT

    • Our stay at the cottage was over and beyond all expectations...We were very comfortable and were provided with all we needed for a great visit to Kauai!! The October breezes and quiet solitude made our stay both relaxing and romantic. We'll definitely be back!!

    • We stayed in this cottage for two weeks over the new year in 2008. The amenities were just right for two people. There were some really nice perks like the jacuzzi and the outdoor grill. We always felt like our privacy was respected and when we had questions regarding the island, Dawn was very knowledgeable about the geography and the culture. The location was very convenient to access most of the island within an hour's drive. We spent many evenings watching the sunset down the road at Kalepaki Bay which was a wonderful way to cap off our adventure filled days. We had a great time.

    • My wife and I stayed at this excellent cottage for the last 4 nights of our Honeymoon in February 2008. The cottage was well maintained and it was very comfortable. Dawn was very helpful, friendly and if we decide to rent a cottage the next time we come to Kaui'i we will stay at her Lihue cottage again. Highly recommended Mahalo, Will and Kim Romano
