Photos and Description of the Kapaa vacation cottage rental
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Sleeps 6

Just steps from the water, Sunrise Cottage is the quintessential oceanfront beach cottage - comfy furniture, wide plank wood floors, warm salt air breezes, and ocean views to soothe the soul. The front porch is a favorite spot for watching the ocean's changing moods (and whales during winter months). A blend of east coast Cape Cod and Hawaiian plantation styles, our vintage cottage is spacious and light with simple furnishings - everything you will need for a relaxing, rejuvenating Kauai get-away.

An exciting NEW feature of the property is the Seaside Walking and Biking path that begins just 2 blocks to the north, following the coastline into Kapaa Town and beyond for stunning views.

Just in front, less than 30 steps from the front porch, is the soft sand and warm waters of ''Baby Beach,'' one of the safest swimming beaches on the island for small children. Here you can enjoy our kayaks, snorkeling, or even SCUBA for lobster in season.

Fabulous Family Vacation

Review Submitted: September 11, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Our family rented both cottages and could not have been more pleased. Both were very clean, well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans, centrally located, quiet, spacious, beautifully furnished, and the view out the front door can't be beat! Spent every sunrise sitting in the lawn chairs watching another wonderful day begin, and ended each night in the very same chairs watching the stars come out and counting shooting stars.
Can't say enough about the location either. Rode bikes on the path, walked to town for lunch and shopping. Only 40 mins from Ke'e beach (end of the road up north), 25 mins from Poipu (southern side with a great beach), and three supermarkets within a five min drive.
Can't thank Susan and Charlie enough for offering this home as a rental to share their special place. Wish I was on a return flight..................

Owner's Response: Thank you, Alison, for sharing your experiences at Aloha Cottages. It sounds like you had a wonderful time, taking full advantage of the amenities and our convenient location... it's a pretty amazing view, isn't it? Combining Moonrise and Sunrise Cottages is a good way to go with a larger group, giving everyone a little more space and privacy... we hope you'll return soon.

Delightful Kauai Experience!

Review Submitted: May 5, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
Sunrise Cottage is a delightful experience! The cottage is beautifully decorated, well stocked and within meters of a quiet section of the Baby Beach. With unobstructed views of the ocean and close to the “hubbub” of Kapa’a, the cottage still felt quite remote and provided a restful retreat with quick access to shopping and restaurants. Susan, Charlie and Dawn were welcoming and informative. If you want to experience the real Kauai (not the resort or condo version) plan to stay at Sunrise Cottage in Kapa’a.

Owner's Response: Thank you, Pat, for such a lovely review. I can tell how much you enjoyed your stay at Sunrise Cottage and our fantastic location, near everything but tucked away. We hope you'll find your way back to one of our Aloha Cottages soon.

We Didn't Want to Leave

Review Submitted: February 12, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2011
Sunrise Cottage exceeded all expectations. The kitchen was well equipped and we used the propane BBQ quite often. Safeway and Foodland were within walking distance and the farmers market on Wednesday was great for fresh bananas, pineapple, avacado, you name it. The layout of the cottage was wonderful for two couples to share without being in each others way. We all spent many hours sitting on the front porch watching the waves and the locals bringing their kids to Baby Beach. We rented bikes from a nearby shop and used the 4.5 mile bike path to explore Kapaa and other beaches. There are beach chairs and a small cooler available to take along which was great. Since the kayaks had been stolen prior to our arrival, we ended up taking a guided kayak trip up the Wailua River and hiked to Breadfruit Falls for a quick dip and lunch. Dawn, the property manager, was always available if we had any questions. Our time at Sunrise went by too quickly. Our last night, we sat outside on the lawn chairs looking at all the stars and saying to each other, "I don't want to go!" We hope to be able to return again - it was great!

Owner's Response: Thank you, Adrienne, it's a pleasure to read about your visit and how much you enjoyed your time at Sunrise Cottage. We strive to make Aloha Cottages The Best and to hear that Sunrise has exceeded your expectations makes my day! —Susan

Awesome updated cottage!!

Review Submitted: September 14, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
Great vacation at this well appointed cottage. Owners very accommodating. Cottage and grounds well kept. Awesome views of the ocean from front porch. Pleasing sounds of the ocean and birds. Centrally located between southern Poipu and northern Princeville. Two kayaks available for our use at the beach close by. Life jackets, beach chairs and umbrellas for using on our beach trips; Loved having bedrooms separated by the great room. Highly recommend this cottage for families. We had 5 people total one week; and 6 the second week.

Owner's Response: Thank you, Mary Jane, for your lovely review for your stay at Sunrise Cottage. It sounds like you had a great time and really enjoyed life at the beach on our little island of Kauai. I would like to add one thing, we highly recommend the cottage for families with small children, also, as Baby Beach is so "child friendly."
