Family Wish Come True

This home was perfect for our family. My girls made a vacation vision board years ago and have been working and recycling and selling eggs for months to save for this trip. This home suited our needs so well. Had a well stocked kitchen great for meals was tidy and well cared for. I cried when I saw the ocean. I couldn’t believe we were able to take our kids there!

This was the perfect house for us. We enjoyed time on the beach out front, quiet time on the balcony, the location worked great for fun trips in either direction, and no one in our group wanted to leave.

Beautiful beach in a dorm room house

It's in a beautiful setting on a somewhat secluded beach with maintenance crews working what seemed every morning and afternoon. A Princeville facility is one door away and constantly being maintained. We loved being able to walk right onto the beach. The house comes with only the most basic of amenities. You will need to buy all of your own paper products. If your young and used to this type of place you'll love it but for more experienced travelers you'll be disappointed.you'll be disaapointed be r place panbeach

Perfect relaxing beachfront vacation

Clean, well maintained home, exactly as advertised. The house had everything we needed, and the property owner, Suzi, was great to work with. We have stayed on Anini before, so we knew what to expect - crowds during the day, and campers nearby. Mornings and evenings are very quiet, so you have a great beach, snorkeling, paddleboarding, etc, mostly to yourself!

Essence of the island

What an incredibly magical stay. If you want a true island experience this is it! Steps to the number 1 rated snorkeling beach, so many sea turtles! We saw humuhumus, sea cucumbers, so many crabs, schools of iridescent fish everywhere. The home is so cozy with a generous lanai. Laundry and all appliances were easy to use and hosts even offered to restock supplies midway through our stay. We made breakfast every morning and enjoyed our coffees walking along the shoreline. The peace and quiet of being near the end of a dirt road did not disappoint. And the stars!!! All the stars! We hope to come back again and hope to stay at the home everytime!

Fantastic Views of Nature

We thoroughly enjoyed watching the waves and sitting on the beach. We even saw whales breaching outside the surf line and turtles inside the surf line on consecutive days. This was exciting and relaxing at the same time.

About the host

Hosted by Bob and Suzi Nakea

Nakea Kauai Vacation rentals offers three properties for rent, a one bedroom ocean bluff condo at Sealodge in Princeville (Kai Nani), a three bedroom beachfront home (Hale Kai) and a one bedroom beachfront cottage (Punana Aloha). The latter two are both located at the secluded end of incredible Anini Beach. All three properties are owned and lovingly cared for by Bob Nakea and his daughter Suzi. Bob and Suzi are native Hawaiians whose family's roots on Kauai go back to the 1800's. No attention to detail on the properties is overlooked, and each home is furnished with the comfort of its guests foremost in mind.

Why they chose this property

In the North Shore's idyllic setting you can: swim, surf; sunbathe, scuba dive or snorkel, wind surf (with rental boards and lessons available at Anini Beach Park), go shore fishing, book a deep water charter; beach comb, go horseback riding at Princeville Stables, watch polo games at Anini Beach, hike the island's awesome trails, enjoy gourmet dining, work out at the Princeville Spa (featuring daily and weekly memberships giving access to the latest exercise equipment, large lap pool, Jacuzzi, wet and dry saunas, and numerous aerobics, yoga, aqua -size and weight training classes), pamper yourself with a facial treatment or full body massage, whale watch, take a Na Pali Coast boat tour or a sunset sailing cruise in Hanalei Bay, book a helicopter tour of fabulous Waimea Canyon, play tennis, enjoy worldclass golfing (with discounts at Princeville's Makai and Prince courses), drive around the island and take in the sights, or just simply lie back and bask in the simple glory of being in one of earth's most naturally beautiful and peaceful places.

What makes this property unique

Hale Kai's location almost at the dead end of Anini Road (1/5 mile after paved road ends and gravel and sand road begins), where there is only a single row of homes along the beach, means that our guests enjoy quiet and privacy not found along most of the rest of Anini. The protecting reef (one of the largest in Hawaii) assures that the waves break far out and not on the shore, and the calm shoreline and shallow waters make the area in front of the house ideal for swimming and snorkeling most of the year (except during periods of high winter surf). It is a wonderful beach for small children as it has a smooth sandy bottom (no holes to worry about!).
