The snorkeling out the glass sliding door off the kitchen and living room is some of the best on Kauai. The warm sand on the cove's beach, only steps away, will invite you to relax and take a rest or read a book. If you are looking to catch some waves, the surf is only a short paddle away!

You will find a comfortable King size bed in the bedroom and ceiling fan to keep you cool at night. There is also a full size sofa-bed in the living room for additional sleeping arrangements.

Map & Owner's Profile
Oceanfront Ground Floor on Water's Edge at Kuhio Shores
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Kuhio Shores
It is island paradise as close to the ocean and sealife as we could find anywhere.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
We enjoy watching sea turtles swimming around while making breakfast in the kitchen and sighting breeching whales while lounging on the shaded lanai in the afternoon. We also enjoy the freedom of having a groundfloor unit allowing direct access to the beach and ability to spread out the lounge chairs on the lawn. When taking a break from swimming with the turtles or exploring nearby beaches & waterfalls, we spend time watching our children look for shells and play in the tidepools while we're on our lanai or inside the property even (we really are that close to the water!)
Owner's Map of Kuhio Shores
We are a family of 5 who love the beach and enjoy spending time with each other. We met 15 years ago while lifeguards on Southern CA Beaches and we currently reside in San Diego, CA with our three adventurous children. Together, we especially love surfing, snorkeling (anything in or around the ocean), hiking and traveling.
