Romantic 1 Bedroom Home at Anini Beach! - Sleeps 2

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

TVR #5082

Punana Aloha, which means 'Love Nest' in Hawaiian, is a one-bedroom, one-bath hideaway on incomparable Anini Beach. Constructed of natural cedar throughout, this 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 (the last quarter mile is unpaved and may be a little bumpy) 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.

A Peaceful Slice of Paradise on the North Shore of Kauai

Nestled on the North Shore of Kauai, located just across the road from Anini Beach, one of the most picturesque beaches on the island, this home offered unparalleled access to serene beauty and endless ocean activities. The calm waters, protected by the outer reef, provided snorkeling, paddle boarding, kayaking, and lazy walks along the beach. The tranquility of the beach, especially during the weekdays, was soothing to the soul. There were moments when it felt as if the beach was ours alone. The adventurous path leading up to the Princeville resort area and the Westin provides a great early-morning coffee spot. Just remember, take it slow, you're on vacation. Hanalei town, is a 20-minute drive, offering a quaint and fun scene if the mood strikes for exploring. What truly set this home apart was its privacy and the palpable sense of quiet it offered. The property, well-kept, homey, and providing everything you need for a comfortable stay, felt like a secluded haven amidst the lush Kauai landscape. The ocean views from the front window, and the breezes were peaceful and relaxing. The sense of calm and privacy it provided made our vacation truly relaxing, allowing us to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. When you forget what day it is, you know you're truly on vacation. For anyone seeking a memorable escape to Kauai, this is a great place to stay.

The perfect place to stay

From the amazing view from the porch, the quick walk to the beach this place is just amazing. Such a lovely and inviting space to stay. The owner is just a delight and was among the best I have ever encountered in my years of renting. Don’t hesitate just book it.

Quaint rustic cottage

This homey little cottage offers impressive natural beauty, surrounded by lush greenery and a stunning ocean view. The beautiful clear water across the road offers amazing snorkeling opportunities around the reef. New appliances made cooking a breeze, the kitchen was well equipped, the couch and bed were very comfortable. It is a little oasis off the beaten path. However there are some downsides. Unfortunately, that path is lined with homeless people, abandoned cars and is extremely bumpy. In addition the beach draws people at all hours playing music and shining lights into the bedroom. The property to the left has loud 4 wheel drive vehicles that drive past the property constantly and starts their lawn care very early in the mornings. The rustic nature of the cottage brings with it spiders, gnats, mosquitos, geckos, feral cats and chickens. Would we go back, ABSOLUTELY! It was a great way to experience Hawai’i for the first time.

Just the 2 of us!

Very nice, well taken care of comfortable home. We had a great time. Everything that we needed was at the home. It was wonderful to grab a cup of coffee, walk down the lawn and sit on a the quiet beach watching the turtles. The road is as described getting to the property. But wasn’t that much of an inconvenience. We hope to stay here again!

A Lovely Escape

Suzi and Bob have really got the spot. The house is just steps from the beach and near the end of the road making it feel peaceful and far from loads of tourists. Suzi also checked in to make sure everything was working as it should and gave us a ton of food recommendations. Hukilau in Kapaa was incredible - thanks Suzi! We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Bob and Suzi Nakea

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 daughter Suzi. Bob and Suzi are native Hawaiians whose family's roots on Kauai go back to the 1800's. No attention to detail on the properties is overlooked, and each home is furnished with the comfort of its guests foremost in mind.

Why they chose this property

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, 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.

What makes this property unique

Punana Aloha's location almost at the dead end of Anini Road (1/5 mile from where the paved road ends and the sand and gravel road begins), 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).
