Photos and Description of the Kapaa vacation house rental
3 Bdrm, 2 Full Baths Oceanview w/Sunrises, Swimming, Walking Path, Dining

Honu Hale Kai is a warm and elegant home base for your family vacation adventure. This home sits upon an oceanfront property (one house back) with a white sand swimming beach only 80 steps away. Ocean views can be seen from this home. This vacation home is two stories. The upstairs level is the main living room with its own fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, disposal and washer & dryer. The master bedroom offers a teak wood queen size poster bed with a Tempur-pedic® mattress. Enjoy your own private spa tub and separate walk-in shower. A small covered lanai is a welcome area for those who want to enjoy their first cup of coffee or read a good book before others awake. Downstairs is great for a second and extended family joining you, or for the kids. One bedroom has a queen size bed and the other has two standard single beds. This level has its own living room with a TV, DVD & CD, and radio.

Enjoy kayaking, swimming, surfing, diving, snorkeling, windsurfing, kite surfing, and fishing. For those less active, take a long walk along the beautiful scenic Oceanside walkway along Kauai's eastern coconut coast. The paved walkway is a way for wheelchair assisted visitors to enjoy the scenery and for those with babies, it is a perfect stroll to soothe any child. We suggest early morning walks to capture the awesome sunrises that the coconut coast is known for. Be sure to take along your camera to capture the moment.

The majority of the walking path is paved for a smooth ride. For those more adventurous, an extended pathway continues along an old abandoned cane-hauling road, all along the ocean's edge.

This home is located within Kauai's historical walking town of Kapaa. Our guests can walk to fine dining as well as casual restaurants. Visit quaint curio shops, island art galleries, local handcrafters, and merchants.

Also, one will find fine jewelers and popular espresso bars with internet access. This town boasts of more than 15 different eateries that you can walk to and enjoy a variety of menus, for those who don't want to cook.

For those who like to dine at home, a complete kitchen package is available with service for 8 guests.

The town of Kapaa is centrally located on the coconut coast (east side) of the island, only 20 minutes from Lihue Airport. It is a beautiful 30 minute drive to majestic Hanalei Bay on the north shore and yet only 45 minutes to popular Poipu Beach on the south shore.

View Opaekaa Falls or take a boat ride up the Wailua River to the famous Fern Grotto. Water skiing, kayaking and canoe paddling are popular visitor activities and another way to enjoy the only navigable river in the state of Hawaii. It is only a short eight minute drive from your vacation home.

For the children, enjoy the local favorite, Lydgate Park where the keiki's will enjoy a labyrinth of slides, ladders, walking decks and fun activities for every age. This is known as Kamalani Bridge, built and created by the local community of Kauai for all children to enjoy.

Lydgate also features a baby pond and an adult safe swimming area circled by a reef structure to protect those who fear swimming in the open ocean. Lots of white sand beaches, picnic areas and restroom facilities are located throughout Lydgate Park.

Kapaa Town also has a small public skateboard park located within a baseball/basketball/tennis facility only a short walk away.

Bicycle rentals are available in town as well as surfboard, boogie board and kayak rentals. Scenic horseback riding is located only a short distance from home.

Linda is Great, Tom is a Hoot

  • Submitted: Jun 4, 2013

What a wonderful place. This is a purpose-built vacation home, beautifully appointed and built. VERY thoughtful layout. We had three couples staying in it and it worked well. Linda is wonderful. Tom is a hoot. He has lots of stories about working with Hollywood on the island. All stories are fun and enthusiastically shared. There is a bike path that runs 4 miles. We rented bikes from a local stand not more than 150 feet away. Best part of the trip. The helicopter ride was incredible. Suggestion: take it as early in the morning as allowed. Kapaa is funky and fun. Breakfasts at Kountry Kitchen were great. Shop at Big Save to save money on groceries. Go to Duke's restaurant for a beautiful restaurant and GREAT food., go to the Smith Family Lua. Very excellent entertainment.

Linda and Tom's place couldn't be nicer.

  • Submitted: May 7, 2013

We had such a fabulous vacation, we already booked to stay here again. Owners were exceptionally helpful with any request. Great house layout for families with tweens and teens (our are 13 & 11). Loved having a TV room and kitchenette downstairs as well as a full kitchen and TV upstairs, although we only watched one movie the whole week. Grandma was able to hang with the kids downstairs while we stayed upstairs. Ran almost every day along the running path in front of the house, and we loved boogie boarding at nearby Keaila beach. We basically cooked breakfast, snacked or bought lunch, and ate dinners out. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Olympic Cafe, Java Kai, and Tiki Tacos were some favorites. Smith Luau was entertaining and kayaking up to the Secret Falls was a blast. Already looking forward to next time. Mahalo! J&J

Wonderful Family Vacation

We so enjoyed our stay at Honu Hale Kai! The house was very comfortable, clean, nicely decorated and well-equipped. It's also convenient to the beach, walking path and shops/restaurants. Kaapa has a friendly and open atmosphere and is very enjoyable. Our family of 4 had plenty of space to relax.
I wish we could have stayed longer! I would definitely recommend this house and area.
Kauai is one of the most beautiful places on earth!

Loved Every Minute

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Mar 11, 2013
  • Stayed: Jan 2013
My husband and I, along with our 22 year old daughter, stayed here for 10 days and loved every minute of it. This is a great place to come "home" to after a busy day exploring the island and is located in a safe and secure area. We enjoyed all of our meals on the wrap around lanai with a view of the ocean and the feel of the cool trade winds. Honu Hale Kai is located within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the oceanfront walking/bike path. Combine all this with gracious host like Tom and Linda and you'll be hard pressed to find a better place to stay! Thanks Tom and Linda for the late checkout - it really made a difference for us.

My friends and I stayed at this beautiful vacation home for 11 nights – it was the perfect place for us - 5 girls- to stay. We enjoyed every minute at this very clean, well equipped and charming house.
Everything was even better than listed in the description or shown on the photos. We definitively would recommend this place to everyone. It´s located very close to the beach and there are a lot of restaurants and shops in walking distance.
Linda and Tom: thank you so much for your hospitality! We really had a fantastic time at this lovely property
