About this property

Kaha Lani Resort #214 - 2BR/2BA Wailua, Kauai, HI - see and hear the ocean!

Kaha Lani means "Heavenly Place" in Hawaiian, which describes this beautifully-appointed, two bedroom, two bath, beachfront condominium on Kauai’s magical Coconut Coast. The home of ancient royalty. The view from the living room, dining room, master bedroom, and lanai is of miles of sandy beach and surf.

Your condominium is only a few hundred feet from miles of undeveloped, white-sand beaches. Nestled between the oceanfront Wailua Golf Course (rated one of the best municipal courses in America) and Lydgate Beach Park, this is an intimate and tranquil setting.

Alternatively, enjoy a lovely beachfront pool nestled within palm trees and gorgeous landscaping just a few steps from your unit. An excellent lighted tennis court and putting green round out this property.

Kaha Lani is centrally located on the island, so you are an easy drive to the North Shore beaches and rain forests as well as Poipu and Waimea Canyon to the south. The nearby Wailua River offers kayaking, hiking, and the famous Fern Grotto.

Perfect for couples and families alike, the adjacent Lydgate Park has a protected area for snorkeling and swimming. There is also a toddler swimming area and large playground.

This condominium unit has a townhouse floor plan. The unit is on the corner making it very light and bright with windows on three sides. The unit was completely remodeled with new kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, lighting and paint throughout in June 2015. Wood flooring through most of the condo, and a nice, bright kitchen. Bathrooms are up-to-date and the whole condo has a nice feel.

The condominium has a very open style where the kitchen is separated from the dining and living areas only by a breakfast bar. The living room and dining room are adjacent to a large lanai, all of which look out over the spectacular beach and surf. Even though there is a dining room, we always enjoying eating on the back lanai while watching and listening to the ocean. And, of course, enjoying the company of the small birds who come to watch!

This unit is on the second and third floors. The upstairs consists of a master bedroom and bathroom with more oceanfront views as well. Being up higher yields nice breezes and the sounds of the ocean while sleeping. It also adds just a touch more privacy rather than being on the same floor as the second bedroom. Part of the remodel was knocking out a wall and making a very large master shower. It's a really nice feature and is really nice after a day at the beach!

Enjoy whale watching and the sway of the palms while relaxing on your large private lanai, fully equipped with patio furniture and lounges. One bedroom (with 2 twin beds) and bath complete the main floor.

All in all, you will certainly be comfortable at Kaha Lani.

One thing to consider is that it is a condo, not just one room, so it takes a bit more time to clean well for the next guests. Check out time is 10:00 to allow that time. This is common on Kaua'i. If you are flying back to the mainland, or otherwise have an evening or late flight, many people like to book an extra day so they can relax and enjoy every minute right up until the flight home. No booking fees, no resort fees.

Loved it!

I was looking for a place that we could meet up with our daughter and two grandsons, 17 and 15. The condo was the perfect place for us. Right from the beginning, the owner Ken communicated with me. Whenever I had a question he responded immediately, almost seconds later. The condo was in a nice area with lots of flowers and plumeria trees. We were only a few steps away from the ocean. From the bed in the master bedroom, we had a view to the ocean. The balcony downstairs had a table and chairs and other outdoor furniture and also a stunning view to the ocean. My younger grandson brought his ukulele along and he loved sitting out there while we warmed up a Costco dinner. The neighbors enjoyed his music. Also the younger grandson and his mother woke up early and loved watching the sunrise. They loved the chickens, the birds and the cats. We went on some stunning hikes around the island, did an inner tube adventure, a 5 hour kayak /hike outing and a boat ride to the fern canyon which was fun and a little Hawaiian entertainment was included. The tour guides on all tours were hilarious. They must have worked as comedians in the past. Well, the rest of the time we drove around enjoying the scenery and the beaches. All of us are sad to leave from here. Before I forget the condos location was perfect. I really hope we get to do this all over again. Mahalo!!!!! Margit

Superb property

This is a superb property. The hosts were excellent; prompt, responsive and caring. The location superb, with beautiful ocean views, great beach walks and strolls, a one minute walk to the beach and 5 minutes to a protected kids friendly swimming hole. The property has everything you need for an excellent visit including beach equipment and boogie boards. I rarely give reviews but this property deserves one.

Highly Recommended

The condo was beautiful, very clean, and accommodated our family of five well. There are plenty of extra towels and wash clothes and even extra beach gear. We had a short stay to say the least because of a hiccup with COVID testing for my children. Ken was especially empathetic and listened to me cry as our trip was being cut short. If I ever visit Hawaii again, I will definitely rent this condo again!

Great location! Beautiful Condo!

Our group of 4 adults really enjoyed the condo! The view was amazing along with the private beach in front. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. I was a little concerned about no a/c but with the breezes and fans this was not an issue! Thanks Ken it was a great 10 days! Kauai is our favorite!

Perfect condo

We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children ages 15 and 12) and it was our first time in Kauai. The place was perfect was perfect for us! We had plenty of space with a superb view of the ocean. The resort is quiet with manicured gardens. The condo had all the appropriate amenities, washer/dryer, as well as beach towels, chairs and umbrella (that was definitely a plus!). The location was also great as we were able to go anywhere on the island from this central area. Instructions for check-in and check-out were very easy. I would definitely recommend this place and may come back ourselves.

Wonderful property on ocean

This condo is right on the ocean and you can hear the waves from the condo.It had everything we needed for cooking, BBQing and to have a pleasant time at the beachwith beach umbrellas, snorkeling equipment, and beach chairs. We enjoyed the wonderful view of the sea from the lanai. The condo was close to stores, beaches and mid-way from both the north and western shores so we were able to travel the whole island in a few days. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

just perfect - great location, great views and Lydgate access

We had an amazing stay - the condo was perfect for our family of 5(3 kids 6-9). The views are great, the sound of the ocean is great, and the roosters are cool. Short walk (along a sidewalk, or walk in the sand next to the ocean) to Lydgate park where there is a huge play structure for kids and a protected lagoon for swimming/snorkeling - so cool! The beds were all comfortable and there was plenty of media to consume if desired (netflix, etc). The location of the condo couldn't have been better - close enough to the airport to be very convenient but not loud, easy drives to both the north and sound side of the island. We did not encounter any traffic problems (but maybe we were just lucky.) Sipping coffee on the back porch watching the waves roll in ... ahhh, my happy place. Thanks for sharing it with us. And for those of you looking - stay here, this is the one! :)

Excellent views

We loved our stay here. Well equipped unit with top quality furnishings and kitchen utensils. Though not really within walking distance to shops, it is a very short drive and also very central to island whether heading North or South. Swimming not recommended on this side of island but were aware before renting so not an issue for us. Whale sitings were a bonus from our lanai and the boogie boards and beach equipment was very appreciated by all. Would rent here again in a heart beat.

Beutiful Stay A Kaha Lani #214

The condo was great. The property manager was extremely fast at getting back to us and making sure everything was in order. There are plenty of fans to keep you cool. You can open the two sliding doors and enjoy the air and the sound of the ocean. The near by BBQ's are quite useful. The location is perfect for us. It was quiet and not busy like resorts. The beach that you can see from your balcony is great to walk on or sit and lounge. The path by the beach is great for a beautiful stroll. There is not a negative thing I can think of to say about this condo.

Very nice, and centrally located

The condo was very clean and had everything we needed to stay in and cook when our family of 6 wanted, even some condiments in the fridge. We grilled hamburgers, etc., on the grills by the pool and out by the parking lot, they are high quality Weber grills and kept clean. There were a bunch of beach supplies in a closet: kids life jackets, coolers, umbrellas, beach chairs, and Costco beach towels for 6. The unit was very well maintained, with nice grounds, and a very nice but smallish pool with an outdoor shower by it. There are generally not a lot of houses with a/c in Kaua’i, so they have louvered windows which we kept open all the time (except one blustery storm at night), and the temps were ok, even when it was 85F and 90% humidity outside. Kaha Lani is a 5-10 minute drive from a lot of things like grocery stores, restaurants, and dive/beach rental equipment shops. It is in the middle of Lydgate state park with beaches you can play at and a park a short walk away, including a protected swimming area with a few fish in it as well as a nearby lifeguard tower. There were soccer/football and rugby matches going one day, but it was not a bother. It was not busy right around the condo, but north in Kapa’a there is a lot of traffic! Especially heading south in the afternoons. The location was central, so we visited some north shore and some south shore places. The couch/hide-a-bed was ok as a bed for kids, but not soft or supportive enough for adults, you might want an inflatable bed instead. A note on noise. The surrounding area is very quiet, but the ocean surf might bother you if you’re sensitive to that, since you’ll want the windows open for air flow. We got used to and liked it after the first night. There are chickens EVERYWHERE on Kauai, at every condo, restaurant, shopping area, and beach, so you just have to get used to it. The roosters will crow very early, and we did get used to it after a couple of nights. We did try to keep clean, sweeping and taking the trash out every night, but still saw one tropical-size roach (it was fast!). It’s pretty much inevitable in a tropical place, so no big deal, but don’t leave clothes, etc on the floor, they might hide in there. Overall, we loved our stay at Kaha Lani, and would go back!

Beautiful spot on the ocean!

Our family enjoyed our stay. It was easy to check into the condo and the instructions for our stay were excellent. Unit was clean and homey. Beds were comfy, but we had some trouble sleeping because of the roosters crowing at 3AM! Needed to close the windows at night to sleep....good thing the fans kept us cool. The roosters are charming, but seem to be taking over the island! Thanks for sharing your condo with us!

About the host

Hosted by Ken Tubman

Host profile image
This condo was originally purchased by good friends of ours. We bought into it with them and we shared it for many years. They recently moved on but we love it so much we kept it for ourselves. We have been coming here for a long time but it never gets old. We really enjoyed the remodeling a few years ago. It was a fun project and really made it our own.

Why they chose this property

Kaha Lani's location was the main reason we bought this property. Beautifully located in the perfect climate on the Coconut coast, it is situated right between the desert south and the rainforest north of Kauai. Any spot on the island is easily accessible from this central location. This condo provides a second life, away from the normal grind. Relaxing, serene, with beautiful scenery, wonderful sounds and sensation, and friendly inviting island atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

Walks on the beach where you are virtually the only ones there. Over 6 miles of undeveloped beach are right at our doorstep. Listening to the ocean crash on the beach from the unit, and fantastic snorkling just a few steps away. Our children loved the playground and massive park surrounding the complex
