SAND, SUN, OCEAN and FUN at the BEACH.
Welcome to "Hale Lokahi", where the only thing between the lanai and the ocean is the long sandy beach that seems to go for miles. The covered oceanfront lanai runs the full width of the house, so you have a front row seat from which to view sizzling sunsets over the ocean towards the island of Niihau. There are very few actual beachfront houses on the Westside, as most have a road between the house and the ocean. BUT NOT HERE!
You can walk to anything and everything from this location. The Waimea River is just short walk away offering fishing and kayaking opportunities. In less than 5 minutes, you can walk to either of the large grocery stores in Waimea, several restaurants and shops, or take in a movie at the Historic Waimea Theater. Walk in the footsteps of Captain Cook, where he came ashore in 1778 as the first Westerner to come to Hawaii. This is old Hawaii and far from the tourist crowds. Quiet and peaceful with the dry sunny climate that guarantees you the best weather for your vacation.
This lovely “beach cottage” belongs to one of the older families of Kauai. Until recently, it was used exclusively by their large family as a place to get together and enjoy the beach. Newly renovated, they have opened up their home to share with a few lucky vacationers. This may be just the place you have been looking for.
This one story cottage sits on a large oceanfront lot and offers 3 bedrooms, two of which are Oceanside, and all 3 have a/c. There are three full baths, so no one has to wait to get ready to enjoy the day. Life here is meant to be lazy and enjoyed. Take a long walk on the beach, sit in the shade of the covered lanai, or just enjoy a good book waiting for one of those fabulous Westside sunsets. Because we face westward, this is the only part of the island that has a sunset view over the ocean, and what a view this is. This house is spacious enough for 3 couples, a large family, or a couple celebrating their wedding with a wonderful honeymoon. There is a large kitchen, fully equipped to make a gourmet meal at home served at your own private ocean-side table. All the furniture and bedding is new along with an updated kitchen and baths. It’s not likely that you will have a rainy day here on the Westside, but if you want to catch one of those morning football games or watch a movie, you have a new 40'' flat screen LCD television complete with 'High Definition' Cable service! We also have a blu-Ray/DVD player, stereo system with CD and ipod dock, and of course, wireless Internet so you can stay stay connected.
So what are you waiting for? If you have the time, we have the perfect place for your vacation.

This house is just about perfect. It is the only one right on the beach in this area. To be able to sit on the patio and watch the sunsets, and then walk the beach practically alone is a great experience. The house has every thing you need, and very intuitively placed. We have stayed here for a week on two occasions now and it is a wonderful place to have as a base and then explore the island. The property manager was the BEST...so nice and pleasant to work with. The kitchen is part of the big room so easy to cook and still be involved. You can see by how few open days there are, that this is a very popular house.

Sorry it has taken so long to post this review. I think I was in denial about being back in Idaho. The stay in Waimea was great. We did spend some time on the road but, without fail, we would return to "our house" to find warm weather and a beautiful sunset. The location on the water was a treat and we enjoyed being in a town of locals better than our past resort experiences. The guy at Ishahira market even asked me if I was on my way to work after my 3rd morning of stopping in for masubu and coffee. We sat out on the beach every night and it was almost our private beach (except for the locals driving down the beach to the park). Chad was great with quick responses to emails and a great attitude. Had one issue with the city water supply and the local support person was quick to find out what was going on and kept us informed. Thanks Chad. We hope to have the opportunity to stay at this property again.

My husband and I spent a week at Hale Lokahi for Thanksgiving 2010 after a few days on the Big Island. I am a sunset fanatic and took photos of sunset from just about everywhere on Kauai. The best ones by far (including those taken from the Napali Coast Sunset Boat Tour) were the ones taken right off the lanai at Hale Lokahi. We were a bit worried that there would not be enough snorkeling or activities to occupy a week on Kauai but we could not have been more wrong. This island is heaven on earth. The house in Waimea was the perfect respite away from the traffic and activity of the the rest of the world - even though we drove to the North Shore 3 times during the week, we were glad to come 'home' to a clean, comfortable, restful spot that had exactly what you want on a good beach vacation - no more, no less. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare the food we got at the Times Market and Farmers Markets. The laundry room off the garage with the giant sink was perfect for all of our 'red dirt' concerns. The beach gear (towels, chairs, cooler, and mats) let us relax and not have to run around looking for convenienece items. The living room with entertainment system, map, and ultimate Kauai guide felt just like our living room in Austin, Texas. Best of our entire vacation was sleeping 30 feet from the rolling surf every night. I had to roll video to make sure we captured that sound to take home with us for restless nights back in Texas. Thank you Chad for letting us stay at Hale Lokahi for our best vacation yet!

We had a marvelous time on our annual hiking adventure, due in large measure to our rental of your house on the beach at Waimea. Your very accommodating kitchen and great gas grill allowed us to cook fabulous meals and enjoy them on the lanai, with the sound of the surf as background. Waimea was a laid-back treat and the fresh fish and vegetables we got at Ishimura's Market were delightful. One of the advantages of this house was its proximity to the plentiful hiking opportunities in the Waimea Canyon vicinity. Superb trails and scenery were just up the mountain. We also used a local company for a Napali Coast boat ride the last day of our stay. Hale Lokahi was a wonderful choice for our trip and I would recommend it to anyone interested in visiting Kauai. Mahalo for your great beach house.

We had a FABULOUS time! We absolutely loved the house - it was just perfect. We loved being able to walk to the grocery store and to get a coffee every morning as well as heading over to Island Tacos for lunch. We had meals out on the lanai every night with the sound of the ocean in the back ground. I did my daily yoga out there as well - what a treat! If we return to Kauai again, we certainly will be staying with you again!

The house was more than we could have hoped for! Absolutely wonderful! The kitchen was amazing and thank you for the olive oil, soy sauce, etc. That saves a fortune. We had Ahi and marlin on the grill and lau laus from Ishihara's on Aloha Friday was our Luau. Again I thank you and we are looking forward to a stay again soon.

It has taken me a month to reply because that is how long it has taken for me to get over my post vacation blues! Your beach house was wonderful and our vacation in a word..........fabulous! It was the best vacation of our lives, even with the tsunami evacuation. The house is so nice. We loved it. It has great views. The location offered us the ability to have a quiet place but be close to lots of activity. We raved about the house to anyone that would listen and even gave out your business card more than a few times. We are already looking forward to our next trip to your Waimea sunset beach house and next time we would like to stay for a whole month.

Aloha Chad, We had a very good time on Kauai. The home we stayed at was wonderful - it was comfortable, great location, loved that we could hear the waves. We were equally impressed that the kitchen was stocked with enough pots, pans, dishes, etc., to make our meals and the beach equipment was an added bonus that we didn't expect. We certainly would consider renting it again the next time we visit Kauai.

We had a wonderful stay at Hale Lokahi. The home was beautiful and a perfect fit for us. The only issue we had was taken care of very quickly by the property manager. We truly love Kauai......so far, it's our favorite island. We'll be making many return trips there.

A group of college roommates (university of Idaho class of '71) got together here. This house is by far the best rental on this side of the island. Everything is better than advertised. Laundry, sand chairs, the works. Just pick up Lau Lau at Ishiharis on Aloha Friday and you have a vacation.
