Kamewile Cottage is an original sugar plantation manager’s cottage, lovingly renovated and beautifully appointed in Island Style. It features a new fully-equipped kitchen, new bath, two spacious bedrooms, comfortable living room, lanai, and landscaped garden. Its nine and a half foot ceilings, giant airy windows, original crown moldings and wainscoting, original wood floors, and tropical ceiling fans in each room give you the feeling of "paradise of old."
The home is in Kekaha, the sunniest area of Kauai boasting the longest white sand beach in the Hawaiian Islands. This is the true Hawaii, away from the tourist-filled beaches and stores, where church services and grocery-store conversations are still heard in the Hawaiian language. Yet great restaurants, grocery, farmers market, shops, art galleries, and great Kauai outdoor activities are minutes away. Kekaha is at the doorway to Waimea Canyon, the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, famous for its hiking opportunities and vistas of the Napoli coastline.
THE PERFECT WEST SIDE LOW-KEY DAY: Awake for coffee on the garden lanai. Take a morning walk on the longest white sand beach on Kauai. Stop for lunch at the Lodge at Kokee before an invigorating hike in Waimea Canyon. Wash off your hiking muscles in the outdoor hot shower. Stroll two doors down to the beach, cocktail in hand, to watch the island’s best sunset. Prepare a light supper in the fully-equipped gourmet kitchen. Then sleep peacefully in your pillow-top king and queen beds with 310 count sheets. |
