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. Take a look at 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 my 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 House with Cottage
The benefits are enormous! Private, lovely setting; great private Jacuzzi, great cooking and dining areas outside. Excellent Kayak and nearby beach. The list goes on. Take a look at guests comments and you'll see the house & cottage is a great place to stay.
Great place for the honeymooning couple and house for small wedding party.
