The Unique Benefits at this House
Hale Kai'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). It is a wonderful beach for small children as it has a smooth sandy bottom (no holes to worry about!).
One bedroom, one bath natural cedar home. Sleeps 2. Ideal for honeymoons and romantic getaways. Find a description, rates, and many pictures on our website at www.nakearentals.com
One bedroom, one bath oceanbluff condo with fantastic ocean view. Sleeps 2. See description, rates, and many pictures at www.nakearentals.com
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.

Our family of 4 stayed in Hale Kai in June 2011 and loved it. There was plenty of room in each bedroom. We enjoyed playing family games and relaxing in the great room. The kitchen is wonderful. Most of all, we loved being on the North Shore. Everything is so lush and beautiful. We visited 1 or 2 beaches every day and enjoyed snorkeling, especially at Tunnels Beach. We would highly recommend Hale Kai!

We are so thankful to have found this wonderful rental home at the end of a quiet road on Annini Beach. This part of Anini Beach is quiet. We often found ourselves alone on the beach. Snorkeling is excellent right in front of the house. The ocean is very calm and great for kids of all ages. When we wanted waves and surfing, we made a short drive (5-7 minutes) to Hanalei. The house was perfect. The bedrooms were large and the beds/linens were very nice. The kitchen was modern and was stocked with all the supplies necessary. One bathroom has a huge shower and a pleasure to use. There is nothing lacking. (There is even more than they claim. Wireless internet too!) The yard was very large and beautiful. We ate grapefruit and tangarines from the trees in the yard. I would highly recommend renting this home on this beach. It is perfect!

We spent our 20th Anniversary on Kauai 4 years ago and we knew we definitely had to bring our kids back. They both just graduated from high school and college this May (they are 18 and 22). We stayed at Hale Kai June 14th through June 22nd. The pictures just do not do it justice. Paradise, serenity, peacefulness and complete awe were what hit our family. We had the most amazing week on Kauai. We were always anxious to get back to the house and just hang out with each other. This was our first full vacation together in over 4 years and it was money well spent. The memories are truly priceless. Our kids are already wanting to come back. The house had everything we could possibly need. I would have to say the sunsets completely took our breath away. Our daughter had never seen one quite that close with such vibrant colors. She spent hours finding the tiniest complete shells we had ever seen. This truly was the best vacation we ever had. Thank you Bob and Dotty for sharing your beautiful home.

Our stay at Hale Kai was spectacular. The house and beach were a perfect fit for our kids, ages 1-8. The house is well stocked with all the necessities for a family like ours. We enjoyed some time at Anini, snorkeling at He'e, Smith's luau and frequent trips to Hanelei. We'll definitely be back.

Bob and Dotty, We stayed at your lovely property from Feb 16-24,2008. We found your house very comfortable and well stocked. And the location is a slice of paradise. We hopefully will return one day. My entire family had an excellent time. We swam, toured, ate, fished, and enjoyed each other. Thank you for the opportunity and setting. Theresa

We loved our stay at Hale Kai! The house was everything we wanted. The bedrooms were large and comfortable and the kitchen was modern and stocked with all the supplies we needed. The lanai was our favorite place to hang out with a great view of the ocean. The backyard had fruit trees - we enjoyed the fresh avocados! The ocean was perfect for our two small children since the water was shallow and calm. This was our first time staying on the North Shore of Kauai, and we loved it! Not as crowded or touristy as the other parts of the island. Very laid back. We will definitely come back and stay at Hale Kai!

Hale Kai is a fantastic place for family or friends to gather. The house is well equipped, very clean, and conveniently located to enjoy all the beauty that is Kauai. Our stay with our 2 daughters and their families was perfect. We all enjoyed the beach out our front door and all the amenities of Hale Kai. Bob and Dotty are very helpful and friendly and provide everything you could possibly want from a beach house. We all loved our stay there and do hope to return soon.
