Retreat from the cares of the world in this tastefully furnished, one-bedroom, one-bath, oceanfront home.

Punana Aloha, which means "Love Nest" in Hawaiian, is a one-bedroom, one-bath hideaway on incomparable Anini Beach. Constructed of natural cedar throughout and boasting a wood-burning fireplace, the cottage is the perfect choice for a vacation to simply "get away from it all." Restricted to a maximum of two guests, the cottage is ideal for honeymoons or anniversaries.

Located on Kauai's verdant North Shore, Anini Beach is a haven for the traveler who wants to experience the unspoiled natural beauty of Hawaii. Protected by a large outer reef, the quiet waters of Anini are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, fishing, kayaking, windsurfing, and sunning. Follow Anini Road almost to the spot where it dead ends at Anini Stream and you will find Punana Aloha on a beautifully landscaped half acre of land fronting the ocean. The ocean view is unobstructed, and your toes will touch the sand of the beach less than 75 yards from the front door.

Punana Aloha Cottage - a Romantic Beachfront Home at Anini!

Year Purchased: 1980

Why the Owner Chose Anini Beach

In the North Shore's idyllic setting you can: swim, surf; sunbathe, scuba dive or snorkel, wind surf (with rental boards and lessons available at Anini Beach Park), go shore fishing, book a deep water charter; beach comb, go horseback riding at nearby stables, hike the island's awesome trails, enjoy gourmet dining, work out at the Princeville Spa (featuring daily and weekly memberships giving access to the latest exercise equipment, large lap pool, Jacuzzi, wet and dry saunas, and numerous aerobics, yoga, aqua -size and weight training classes), pamper yourself with a facial treatment or full body massage, whale watch, take a Na Pali Coast boat tour or a sunset sailing cruise in Hanalei Bay, book a helicopter tour of fabulous Waimea Canyon, play tennis, enjoy worldclass golfing, drive around the island and take in the sights, or just simply lie back and bask in the simple glory of being in one of earth's most naturally beautiful and peaceful places. We will be happy to assist you in your activity planning. Just let us know what you would like to do!

The Unique Benefits at this House

Punana Aloha's location almost at the dead end of Anini Road, where there is only a single row of homes along the beach, means that our guests enjoy quiet and privacy not found along most of the rest of Anini . The protecting reef (one of the largest in Hawaii) assures that the waves break far out and not on the shore, and the calm shoreline and shallow waters make the area in front of the house ideal for swimming and snorkeling most of the year (except during periods of high winter surf).

Owner's Map of Anini Beach

Nakea Kauai Vacation rentals offers three properties for rent, a one bedroom ocean bluff condo at Sealodge in Princeville (Kai Nani), a three bedroom beachfront home (Hale Kai) and a one bedroom beachfront cottage (Punana Aloha). The latter two are both located at the secluded end of incredible Anini Beach. All three properties are owned and lovingly cared for by Bob Nakea and his wife, Dotty. Bob is a native Hawaiian whose family's roots on Kauai go back to the 1800's, and Dotty is a mainland transplant who has been in the islands for over 48 years. No attention to detail on the properties is overlooked, and each home is furnished with the comfort of its guests foremost in mind.

    • We had a wonderful time at the cottage and would highly recommended it to anyone looking for a blissful beach retreat on beautiful Anini Beach. I've visited the North shore area several times, but this was the best place I've stayed.

    • We visited all the islands during our honeymoon and had a great time everywhere but we're so glad that we saved the best for last. Staying at Punana Aloha Cottage is like having your own little piece of paradise - warm days, cool breezes at night, a beautiful and secluded beach that was almost all ours, a lush tropical garden.... We had a wonderful stay - thank you so much Bob and Dotty.

    • We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Punana Aloha. It's a wonderful place to check in with a bag of groceries and not bother leaving for days on end. We BBQ'd most every day and certainly availed ourselves of the well-stocked kitchen. Sharon brought her sewing machine and set it up on the dining room table with a nice view of the ocean (Kapaia Stitchery in Lihue is one of her all-time-favorite quilt stores, and was one of a few excuses to "go to town"). A great swimming and snorkeling beach, and just a very relaxing and well appointed vacation home, perfect for a couple. We'll definitely be back!

    • Bob and Dotty, Kauai is a beautiful island, and Punana Aloha is the perfect place to stay while there. We loved the secluded, tropical feel of the property and easy access to the beach. The cottage was clean and comfortable. We were so relaxed! The beach area offers a little bit of everything - calm waters, no crowds, beautiful views, snorkeling, stream, trail, etc. We even saw an amazing rainbow while there. Thanks for offering this wonderful place. Tim & Tammy

    • Thank you Bob and Dotty for a wonderful stay at your cottage. We had a fantastic time and found our home away from home that gave us the time to relax and kick back a bit on the island during our honeymoon stay. We enjoyed hanging around and made use of the grill for dinner one night and relaxed with breakfast on the lanai every morning. Your cottage is cozy and offers a fantastic view of the ocean and is very peaceful. We did a lot of exploring along the Anini shoreline and loved walking around the area. Your cottage was the perfect pick and recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful place on their honeymoon. It is so beautiful and hope to return back here in a few years. Thank you again!

    • Staying at the Punana Aloha was the very best vacation of our lives. We found it easy to be "home" everyday and enjoy the north shore offerings. The cottage is inviting, comfortable, and very well stocked. Bob and Dottie are warm and caring people that make you feel a part of their family. We will stay here again without any second thougts. Thank you for such an outstanding vacation. We even loved the chickens and miss their crowing:)

    • What a great vacation retreat. We loved the Island, the people, and the treat of staing at Puanan Aloha. It was so wonderful to have the simple homey extras....I felt like I was at home. The location gave us easy driving time to any area on the island. We'd to it again. Thanks for all the thoughtful care you extended with your Aloha Love! Theresa & Anthony April 2009

    • The Punana Aloha Cottage is the perfect house for one couple to stay at while in Kauai. It is beautifully clean with many extra amenities. It is in a great area with many other areas a short distance from the house. Our weather was very bad (Feb. 25 - March 8) so that put a damper on many of the activities that we had planned.

    • Thank you Bob & Dotty for sharing your wonderful beach house. We loved the location and enjoyed our 7 nights on the North Shore of Kauai. The house was very well equipped - we even cooked our own Christmas Dinner on the grill using fresh produce bought from the local market. Access to wireless internet connection was also very handy in checking the morning surf report. We will definitely recommend your lovely house to friends visiting Kauai. All the best for 2009!
