Why they chose this property
Celebrating More Than 20 Years of Hawaiian Hospitality ~ Since that fateful summer day back in 2004 when my late husband and I purchased The Dolphin Hale, much has changed in the Short Term Rental space. However, what has stayed constant is Team Dolphin Hale's commitment to the Guest Experience. Taking things up a notch, my son, Garrett Rice, has joined Team Dolphin Hale working the back of the house as they say. He is no stranger to the hospitality industry in Las Vegas. Further, Nancy Miller and Chris Boeck will continue to serve as our/your Island Hosts. Nancy and Chris themselves bring years of experience in hospitality on Kauai to the table. They are happy to provide recommendations and answer questions as only locals can. So, be Our Guests and celebrate with us by booking The Dolphin Hale. Note: Commercial activities are prohibited. ~ With Aloha, Tammy
What makes this property unique
E komo mai! Located in an upscale master-planned community, The Dolphin Hale offers guests ocean views and all the comforts of island living without the stresses associated with more congested venues. The trail-head to Kaweonui aka Sealodge Beach is just down the street. As a tri-level single-family residence guests can enjoy some elbow room within the well-appointed home and relax. The only party animals you may hear at night are Kauai rosters in the distance.
