North Shore Cottage Rental - Beautiful Tropical Surroundings!

Very clean and comfortable. Owner/manager provided very helpful information on places to see, eat, etc. The one bedroom unit with living room, small kitchen and bath was well furnished. It is attached to a larger house, separated by a breezeway, so it is not a free standing cottage. People in main house were quiet. This is located in a residential area on a road that leads to a beautiful beach. Some traffic noise until after sunset, but not bad. All in all, a quiet, private location.

A nice, clean property -- property manager was very responsive to a couple of minor issues. We hope to be back!

Blue Anini had all we needed. Great for two people, super clean—no issues!

We have been to Kauai many times and always use vacation rentals and I’ve seen this property for years in the listings— so they have been doing this awhile and it shows.

This home is on a residential road heading down to the closest beach— which is a great one for swimming and has a long, more narrow stretch of sand to find a spot. Some reviews say they felt there was noise from cars— but we only heard normal traffic. Gotta get to the beach somehow.

The house has a pretty garden with fruit trees and lovely hedge walls for privacy. Living room was comfortable for relaxing and so was the bed! It was a hot week, so the AC was needed in the bedroom for a while. We didn’t cook but kitchen appeared well stocked with supplies . : )

We and have stayed at all points on the island, but this was probably the furthest north we have been—so it was a longer drive to go to some other favorite spots—so if you’re thinking of going to Poipu/ Koloa area or Hanapepe or even further west —just plan a full day. However, Princeville is very close as well Kilauea, both very convenient for getting a bite or some good coffee. Hanalei is little further drive north and Kapaa is about 25 minutes. So lots of choices for good restaurants nearby —plus two brand new fancy grocery stores just opened— one with a wine bar and some pretty good food with a awesome view.

We enjoyed exploring this area of Kauai a lot and would stay at Blue Anini again without question. Can’t wait to return.

Mahalo!!

One note: there is a sweet very old cat that seemed to live around the grounds/ house. .. slept on out on lanai a lot while we were there and is just friendly. If you see him give him a treat and some aloha! We loved seeing him every day.

Terrific location & amenities!
