About the host

Host profile image
We live on Kauai and have been connected to and travelling to this amazing Island for over 50 years. My family is originally from Colorado, Oklahoma and California and are fortunate to now live here permanently.

Why they chose this property

This home is a hidden gem with so much Hawaiian history. Even those who have lived here for generations are astounded when they experience this home. It truly is one-of-a-kind and this home is continually called the best view on the Island. Without question, the best on Kauai's sunny South Shore.

We love sharing our home and the Island with visitors. We enjoy sharing what we have learned by living here with others, so they may have the best possible experience while making life long memories.

What makes this property unique

"The best view and location on the Island". I know that is a bold statement, yet we are repeatedly told this by those who have lived here for generations.

Makahuena Point was a spiritual location for the Ancient Hawaiians. This is the Southernmost point of Kauai. This Home was built on the very edge of Makahuena Point. Walter Lappert, the founder of the legendary Lapperts handmade ice-cream in Hawaii chose to live in this home for many years.

The ocean at Makahuena Point becomes shallow and attracts Whales, Dolphins, Turtles and more are all visible from the Lanai, Pool, Bedrooms, and Living Room of the home.

The pool is perched on the ocean. Pools on Kauai can no longer be built on the ocean as this one was. You feel as if you are floating on the Ocean as you swim and lounge in the sun..

Sunsets are spectacular all year round from this location. You have your own lawn and garden area. The view is spectacular and sweeps beyond 200°. Ni'ihau, Spouting Horn and all of the South Shore is visible from this home.

The sound and sight of ocean waves breaking on the shore that is your back yard are hypnotically beautiful. Words can't describe the beauty and feeling of this place.
