About this property

Large family home along the ocean and bike path in Kauai. Sleeps 7! TVNC #4247

Live like a local at Oceanfront Harmony, a professionally managed and operated vacation rental located -- as the name says -- on the oceanfront. This 4- bedroom, 3-bathroom classic Hawaiian historic home, is fully equipped with large kitchen, bar area, living room, private decks, and "al fresco" lanai/dining room, offering plenty of space for friends and family. Sleeps 7 comfortably. Works well for multi generation families (grandparents and parents in two bedrooms with King beds) and kids in the other rooms; we've also hosted several couples or groups of friends. Enjoy gorgeous ocean views and stunning sunrises/sunsets within a charming Kauai neighborhood.

Fuji Beach (aka Baby's Beach) for gentle swimming is right outside the front door, and some of the best beaches on the island are just a short walk or bike ride away. You'll have easy access by hopping on the 7-mile bike path that runs along Kauai's eastern "coconut coast" just in front of the home. Located minutes away from historic Kapa'a town with plenty of shopping and restaurant options. Also convenient to both the north and south shores of Kauai, the Wailua river (waterfalls and kayaking!), and all the breathtaking scenery the island has to offer. Comes fully equipped with all the comforts of home....plus the sound of the ocean waves to soothe you to sleep.

The "cabana" next to the water provides a great covered area for lounging, dining, reading, grilling, doing yoga or just hanging out. We recently upgraded the internet connectivity to better accommodate those who will be working from paradise. We also have a variety of beach equipment for you to use, including towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, yoga mats, a cooler and an umbrella.

Need space for 11? Inquire about renting both Oceanfront Harmony (sleeps 7) and our sister property, Oceanfront Rhythm (sleeps 4) to accommodate the entire gang!

Finally, please note that the property is located in the Tsunami Evacuation Zone. A map with evacuation procedures is provided in the home.

Issues
Great location, but the house was not clean, and had roaches. Needs major attention and good cleaning. The outdoor seating area hasn’t been cleaned in a while. The Jack and Jill bathroom didn’t have hot water. The hosts were very nice but I would not recommend until these issues are taken care of after each renter.

This was a perfect home for our family trip! It had everything we needed for 7 of us. The beach was right there for taking a dip after our days adventures. Kapaa is our favorite part of the island, right in the middle of everything.

Great location- local ambiance
This house is in South Kapaa so you miss the traffic when going south. It’s in a neighborhood and a few steps from a beach that locals use. We loved the walking path to beach and town. The host, Ellen, was so nice and very accommodating. The house is an older island home so it has some wear and tear, but is clean, spacious and very comfortable for large groups- we were 5 adults and 2 children.

Family Reunion in Kauai
The stay at Oceanfront Harmony was fantastic! Six adults stayed in Oceanfront Harmony and four adults stayed in the neighboring property Oceanfront Rhythm. There was plenty of room for everyone. The neighborhood was nice. Ellen was a fabulous hostess. She is very kind. She checked in with us a couple times to see how we were doing. She was readily available to answer questions.

Beach house
Beautiful location walking distance to grocery stores, shopping, 4 beaches and restaurants! Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook meals. Loved the in and outdoor games. Only drawback, being from dry Colorado was the hot humid house. It has a whole house fan, ceiling fans, floor fans but was still hot enough I didn’t sleep at night.

Family Vacation
There is not enough positive things I can say about the Ocean Front properties. The homes were very clean when we arrived, with a wonderful welcoming gift basket in each house. Mrs Ellen was extremely helpful by sending me a full list of recommendations for activities, beaches and restaurants. The houses comfortably accommodated 11 people ranging from 15-69 years old for 10 days. Mrs Ellen stopped in to check on us, provided us with whatever we needed, and brought her puppies by to allow the kids to get in all the dog loving they could handle. The location is absolutely perfect. We grilled nightly, played yard Yahtzee, corn hole, and cards. We were able to watch the sunrise everyday from the front yard and the beach. We were provided with coolers, chairs, boogie boards, umbrellas and all the sand toys! I can’t wait to return for another visit with this amazing host and property. 10/10 recommend.

Spring Break with the extended family
Great place for our extended family to vacation together. The two elementary age grandkids each had a small room of their own with a desk, which our granddaughter used for her drawing. The adults’ accommodations were good. We used the screened in porch for most meals. The shared cabana was a good location for yoga or relaxing with a book. We enjoyed walking or jogging along the shoreline paved path that passed Baby Beach and other nice beaches for swimming. Another nice family was staying at the adjoining property and all the kids had a great time playing together. Ellen was very helpful in sending emails with lots of ideas on things to do.

Huge, well-stocked, great property and location!
The house was meticulous and very spacious for our party of 4 adults plus 2 kids. It's rare to find such a large place on Kauai. Loved all the outdoor seating and private yard, the screened in porch, and heated outdoor shower. The nearby beach is best for sunbathing and wading with the toddler, which we did almost daily! This is the best stocked rental I've ever stayed at!! PLENTY of needed supplies (not just a few random things, but a surplus of everything you need - detergent, paper towels, beach towels, USEFUL kitchen supplies, beach gear, baby gear, etc.). It sounds odd but I especially appreciated the tupperware! Ellen was very welcoming and helpful, left the lights on for our late arrival, and left the BEST welcome gifts (fresh pineapple and a sampling of local foods)! Remember air conditioning is rare on Kauai and the house does get very hot during the day. The house fan and multiple ceiling fans in every room are crucial! Would definitely rent here again.

Amazing house in Kapa’a!
We had an incredible stay at Oceanfront Harmony! The house was perfect for our group (seven adults) and we took advantage of the lanais, outdoor cabana, and all the beach items that were provided. You cannot beat the location, the ocean was literally right out front, with a small beach half a block away. Plus it’s location in Kapa’a was very central to the entire island and walking distance to the cute downtown area. Ellen was an extremely friendly and accommodating host who provided lots of info on all the different areas on the island. She definitely helped make our stay amazing! We loved our time at Oceanfront Harmony and highly recommend it to all!

Beautiful Property/Excellent Stay!
The home was lovely; the view was amazing. We enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of waves. Comfortable furnishings, everything you need for the beach: towels, chairs, umbrellas, lots of snorkel equipment, boogie boards. Ellen is a wonderful host. She provides a customized list of recommendations of things to do, places to eat, and local information. The house is large enough for a big/extended family vacation. The beach across road from the property is protected with about 2 feet of water, a perk for families with children. I loved sitting on the deck in the morning with coffee, my book, and the ocean. Peaceful. Relaxing. Rejuvenating. We would stay here again. We had a wonderful stay.

Best way to experience Kauai!
We've rented this house almost half a dozen times now and it never fails to be fantastic. The host is excellent and responsive, the house is fully stocked from laundry detergent to flashlights by every bed to snorkel gear and boogie boards. Directly oceanfront with just a small driving path to cross, it's ideally located in Kapa'a which offers easy access to the whole island. Definitely a gem.

Absolutely Beautiful!
We stayed one week with friends and family at Ocean Harmony! We've stayed at quite a few VRBO properties in the past and I have to say this was well beyond our expectations. Everything we needed was provided and more. The home provided more than enough space for 5 of us with amazing views and sounds of the ocean. Ellen was a dream to deal with and helped with anything we needed. The list of attractions she provided us before our arrival also helped make the trip amazing. We will be back!

Million Dollar Location
This property was an all around hit with our family. The layout was perfect for traveling with our adult children and teenage nephew. Everyone had plenty of privacy and the lanai was perfect for meals and game nights. The outdoor shower was a perfect way to start or end your day. I didn't think we would use the large soaking tub but it was great after riding the bike trail. We loved swimming in the little beach up the street. We walked to town for shopping and meals. The neighborhood was extremely quiet and safe. Ellen met us at the house before check in to let us drop off our luggage. By the time we went to lunch and got groceries, the house was ready for us. This was a big help. The house was well supplied. We had everything we needed. The cabana area was perfect morning yoga or just relaxing.

Absolutely beautiful house to stay in! We have friends living on each end of the island so it was perfect to be located somewhat in between. Convenient to shopping and beach right next to the house. We had an absolute blast staying in that house and we can’t thank Ellen and her husband enough for being the perfect hosts.

About the host

Hosted by Ellen Berkowitz

Host profile image
We delight in sharing Oceanfront Harmony with guests from all over the world. You may see us bike riding or walking our dogs (two Aussies!) along the bike path from our home just down the street. We love the neighborhood, the restaurants, the beaches, and think there is no better place on earth than the eastern shores of Kauai. We are always available if you have questions about the area or recommendations, or if you need any other assistance during your stay.

Why they chose this property

If you want an authentic Hawaiian experience living among the locals in a "real" Hawaiian neighborhood, away from the tourists but close to all the amenities and action, this is the place for you. You'll be close to both the north and south shores of the island, with easy access to Waimea on the west, while staying in the heart of historic Kapa'a Town and its plentiful shopping, dining and fantastic nearby beaches. As a dedicated vacation rental, Oceanfront Rhythm and Harmony are professionally cleaned and designed with the traveler in mind, meaning you won't be living in someone else's home. But, we've put all the care into decorating and designing it as if it was our home, so you get the best of both worlds. We would be honored to have you as our guest.

What makes this property unique

At Oceanfront, we are committed to supporting our local community. We provide our guests with a gift basket with locally made treats, such as honey from our local beekeeper and coffee from our local roaster. We also believe in sharing with the community and donate 5% of our proceeds to local non-profit organizations, such as Foodbank Kauai, Friendship House Kauai, Friends of Kamalani and Lydgate Park, and the YWCA Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Services. We also want to make sure you have all the information you need to make your trip memorable. Want to relax? We'll tell you about the best beaches. Interested in wellness? We'll tell you about massage therapies, farmers markets and yoga studios. Outdoor activities? We'll tell you about the best hiking, farm tours, botanical gardens, NaPali Coast tours and snorkeling. Interested in extreme adventures? We'll tell you about helicopter tours, ziplining, ATV tours and more. Some visitors ask if the Oceanfront Cottages are air conditioned. The answer is no . . . intentionally. While condos (which may not have cross-ventilation and can trap heat) or inland homes (which do not get fresh air circulating off the ocean) may need air conditioning to be comfortable, this is not true of a home on the ocean with lots of windows. At Oceanfront, you can live in harmony with the natural environment and have a richer connection to the trade winds, the sounds of the waves lapping on the shore, the delicate scent of the ocean air, the feel of the sunshine and the gentle breezes. No closed up spaces with air conditioning to steal away from the experience and romance of the Pacific Tropics. Instead, you are invited to embrace the rhythm and grace of the Hawaiian climate; it will stay resident in your soul for months . . . or years from now. If vacationing in conditioned air, Kauai may just be another postcard view out your window . . . the soul on ice!
