This place was simply amazing! We rented the entire house: upstairs, downstairs, and attached studio. We mainly entertained upstairs, as it was very open, had access to the outdoor deck areas, and could accommodate all of our visiting friends, with plenty of room to mingle. There’s so many aspects to speak highly of, that made our stay comfortable. I’ll start with the kitchen, which was spacious, with plenty of storage, cookware, and a very open floor plan for everyone to hang out. Off the kitchen area was the outside decks, which is where we spent most of our time. There’s a picnic table, and seating for 4-6 others, and standing room to roam.
Down the stairs below is the grill, which was used almost nightly for dinner. The bedrooms and bathrooms were simple, but felt cozy and typical in the traditional island style. Specifically, the master bedroom was great, with the private bathroom and roomy deck overlooking the backyard, we loved it. Which We got married during our stay and had the reception in the backyard. Let me tell you, it was gorgeous. Not having many neighbors in the back felt very private, and in a nice jungle-like setting. There’s also lime and avocado tress with fruit, at least while we were there, which is nice for having fresh ingredients to pluck and use on-premises.
There’s a large closet full of beach stuff. Chairs, coolers, bodyboards, masks, snorkels, fins, umbrellas, etc. And, with a short walk to the beach, you can head out for the day, or any evening stroll, within a few minutes. I’d highly recommend this rental. Plenty of space, a nice yard, and walking proximity to one of the nicest beaches on Kauai.
We were two families (total of 10 people) renting the main house and the apartment below. It was absolutely perfect for us! After nearly 5 years of planning, we were finally able to enjoy this wonderful home! Marney was incredibly accommodating, going above and beyond in the planning and procuring of our vacation rental.
The house and apartment were perfect for our 2 families. Having stayed in several VRBO homes before, I was incredibly impressed at how well it was stocked. One of my favorite family traditions while in Kauai is to go to the fish market and get fresh fish then make up new recipes on the spot, based on what we have on hand.
We call it “kitchen cupboard fish”. Marney had every single spice I could imagine. Combined with her excellent kitchen supplies and utensils, I made an utterly fabulous gourmet meal. We had 5 children with us, ranging in age from 2-8 years of age.
There was a toy or activity for every single age group! For 7-10 days at a time, each new family feels like they live in a slice of paradise. It feels like your own home and for that short period, you are the exquisite owner in the most magical place on earth. Marney, thank you for creating such an inviting home to entertain our wildest daydreams! We’ll be back to make more precious memories!
