Kauai Beach House for the Perfect Island Vacation

Welcome to the serene and picturesque Moana Kai Beach House, your gateway to paradise on the beautiful island of Kauai. Nestled along the pristine shores of Waipouli Beach, this exquisite beachfront luxury property offers an unrivaled experience that words can hardly capture. Here, you'll be greeted by the soothing melody of ocean waves and enveloped by breathtaking views that stretch as far as the eye can see.

A Natural Oasis:
From your private lanai, sip island-grown coffee each morning and witness the magic of a Kauai sunrise. Feel the gentle caress of cool ocean breezes throughout the year, making it an ideal spot for whale watching during the winter months. This is not just a vacation; it's an immersion in the natural wonders of Hawaii.

The Poolside Paradise:
The Moana Kai Beach House boasts a unique and inviting private swimming pool adorned with a cascading waterfall, just steps away from your ocean-view lanai. This pool is a shared common area with two other houses on the property, providing a perfect spot for relaxation and rejuvenation while being tantalizingly close to the ocean's edge.

Luxury Accommodations:
Our 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom oceanfront beach house comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests. Step inside to discover a cozy and inviting living room with ample seating, a fully equipped kitchen ready for your culinary adventures, and spacious bedrooms furnished with supremely comfortable beds. The living room offers seating for 8, oceanfront dining for 6-8, and a generously appointed kitchen and pantry. With awe-inspiring ocean vistas, natural light fills the great room, creating a sense of boundless tranquility.

Convenience Meets Privacy:
Nestled in the heart of the charming old Kauai town of Kapa’a, you'll enjoy easy access to the island's best restaurants, shops, and attractions. Yet, the property maintains a tranquil privacy that allows you to unwind and enjoy quality time with your family.

- The primary bedroom features a king-size bed, a full bath, and a jacuzzi tub.
- The 2nd bedroom offers a queen-size bed with an attached full bath.
- The 3rd bedroom has two twin-size beds that can be combined into a king-size bed.
- The living room includes a queen-size pull-out bed and space to set up an additional blow-up mattress if needed.

Modern Comforts and Amenities:
The Moana Kai Beach House is equipped with all the modern conveniences to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Stay connected with high-speed WiFi, unwind with Smart TVs, and take care of laundry with a washer and dryer. There are two parking spaces available in the carport and additional street parking for your convenience.

Exploring the Island:
Our retreat is nestled in a tranquil neighborhood, with Waipouli Beach mere steps from your doorstep. For those who love outdoor activities, the property is situated at the start of the 6-mile-long Kapaa multi-use bike/walk/jog path. Whether you choose to explore or simply relax, the sound of the waves will serenade you.

Central Island Location:
You'll find yourself just a short drive from the Kauai Village Shopping Center, pristine beaches, eclectic boutiques, and the diverse culinary delights of Kapa’a. Must-visit attractions like Lydgate State Beach Park, Fern Grotto, Kamalani Playground, and Wailua Golf Course are easily accessible.

Adventure Awaits:
For the adventurous spirits, consider renting a kayak and paddling up the Wailua River, where you'll encounter breathtaking scenery and discover one of Kauai's hidden waterfalls. This central island location offers unparalleled access to the best Kauai has to offer.

Your journey at the Moana Kai Beach House is more than a vacation; it's an invitation to embrace the beauty and tranquility of Kauai. We look forward to hosting you and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Great Location & Amenities
Our family had a wonderful, relaxing holiday at this beach house. The location was great, the view was awesome, and the kids loved the pool! The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. The only drawback was the cleanliness. All of the dishes and pans could use a fresh cleaning, and the floors need a deep cleaning. Overall, though we were very happy!

Pretty much perfect
Wonderful place to stay in a great location. Very comfortable, well-outfitted house with lots of room to stretch out, great view of the ocean and a nice pool. Sit out on the lanai or inside and get great ocean breezes through the wide screen doors. House located at the beginning of the oceanfront beach walk, made for easy and beautiful early morning walks to Java Kai for coffee.

Perfect place for a family
We really enjoyed our stay and think this was a great location to access the entire island. There were lots of amenities that made our stay even more enjoyable, including beach chairs, a cooler, googles, and a paddle board. Also, there was plenty of space for the 5 of us to be comfortable and spread out. I really did my research before booking this house and it delivered. I especially appreciated the big well stocked kitchen. Having our 3 twenty something kids we used it a lot! And the open floor plan with the ocean view was incredible. Brenda was lovely and a big thank you to her as well. We really fell in love with Kauai and hope to come back someday. Thank you for the great experience! Mahalo Tisha

Look no further…
This property is amazing. We couldn’t be happier with our choice! There were seven of us in total, and we had the most amazing time. The property is perfectly located at the beginning of the bike path. You can walk to town, rent bikes, swim in the pool or hot tub, or hit the beach. We have five children that range in age from 7 years old to 13 years old. This house was absolutely perfect for a “free range “situation while we were cleaning up or packing for the beach or hiking, the kids could do their own thing safely with a short distance. The owner, Caleb, was super responsive. Check in and check out were super smooth. Thank you so much for having us! We hope to return someday!

Great host and location
This location is great to see both North and South of the island as it is centrally located on the East coast, near the airport. I find if you stay on the North or South, you may feel a bit limited. With Lihue/Kapaa/etc so close, you have plenty of dining aroud the corner. There are some very easily accessed beaches, or jump in the car to go to some of the more "top 10" beaches within 20-30 minutes. The host contacted us very kindly during our stay offering assistance. I honestly was enjoying myself so much, I forgot to even reach out. Also the guide book was surprisingly incredible! It became a running joke with our group of 4 adults It was nice to do a load of laundry. We caught a couple fish on a charter and had everything to prepare a full meal at the house. We enjoyed a nice hot tub to decompress at night after hike! All was clean and easy. A very friendly dog next door came to visit on occasion- big highlight with our crew.

We had a wonderful stay in the very well appointed Kauai Beach house in Kapa’a. The house is in a great central location for seeing Kauai’s sights! We enjoyed the lovely furnishings, the gorgeous view and well stocked kitchen as well.

Relaxing family vacation
We enjoyed a very relaxing vacation at this property. Pool is smallish and was chilly (Dec) but the kids still braved it. However the hot tub saw consistent use! Some of the jets had been turned off & shot out mold/algae scum when we turned them on, but it mostly cleared after a day. Appreciated the use of water toys, and we tried the paddle board just down the beach in the calm, protected tide pool area. Plenty of living space for family (4 adults, 2 kids) to spread out.

Calm Kauai
Great location - easy drive to Puipo, Waimea, Hanalei and obviously Kapa'a. The kitchen had all the small appliances we needed, plus the propane grill on the patio made a great way to save a bit on meals. We didn't get to see the sun rise out of the ocean because of the weather, but being steps from the beach and having nobody between our patio and the water was beautiful. The hot tub got used by somebody almost every night, and Brenda was a great help for quick questions. We would love to come back, and would recommend the place to friends.

Wonderful beach house
We stayed at the Moana Kai Beach House for a week in November and fell in love with the location and house. We visited with my brother-in-law, sister-in-law and mother-in-law that turned 90 this year, she said it was the best house she had ever stayed at in Hawaii…and this trip was her 22nd trip to the islands. We walked the bike path, watched the sun rise on the beach and really enjoyed watching the kite surfers that came out when the wind picked up near the end of our week. We appreciated how well stocked the kitchen was and cooked several meals at the house. The grocery store was close by. We also ate at several wonderful restaurants within a few miles of the house. We probably should have ventured out more but were so relaxed that we didn’t feel the need to leave the house much. The house was plenty big enough that we never felt like we were on top of each other, and the internet was great and supported a couple of us doing some work on our laptops in the morning before relaxing started. We would not hesitate to stay at the Moana Kai Beach house when traveling with family or friends in the future. Thank you...The Noah Family!

Overall a good place to stay
This house is located on the east part of the island, which makes it a grate location if you are wanting to visit different parts of the island. It felt very central and made it easy to visit the north and south parts of the island. The property manager, Brenda, is also very friendly and brought us donuts from her bakery one morning. The only issues we had when staying here were the fact that one of the showers was not usable for the first couple of days. They notified us the day before that it was being worked on and may not be fixed before our stay. They got it fixed fairly quickly, but communication throughout that process was pretty poor. Additionally, a few things to be aware of when booking this property, 2 of the 3 pool chairs are broken and unusable. There is also a chance you may find some cockroaches in the house. We encountered 3 or 4 throughout our stay, but Brenda brought us some roach houses to put out. Overall, we had a fantastic stay here. The views made up for any issues we had there and we loved hanging with the chickens in the yard!

Good location, right on the beach. Pool is shared between 3 houses, but not busy. Hot tub was not working when we were there, but wasn’t a necessity.

Beautiful setting convenient to beaches, restaurants and shops
This beautiful home with an ocean view and shared swimming pool met all of the needs of our six person, three generation family (ages 3-72). The eastside location was convenient for travel to the north shore and Waimea Canyon. We enjoyed walking to beaches, restaurants, and shops. We couldn't have imagined a better property for our visit to Kaua'i.

Great lanai
I didn’t think we would use the pool much but we ended up using it and the hot tub each night except for wed/Thurs. It (pool) was very dirty after the lawn was cut. Ocean view is nice with the waves not too distant from the back lanai. There is a water feature so you don’t really hear the surf but it is very peaceful with a private feel due to open grass and views. There is a house under construction next door. We didn’t notice any noise from the construction during our stay. The current stage when we were there June 4-10: waiting for siding, the roof was on so they are probably doing a lot of the interior work. It’s a couple minute walk (gate at rear)to the beach and pathway along the coast Wonderful sunrises! We spent most of our home time on the back patio. One neighbor used the pool briefly but it was like having our own pool for most of the stay. The management team was responsive. The first night was a bit warm and the ac wasn’t performing well in the primary bedroom. Brenda and team had it replaced the next day! Shout out to Brenda! Overall good location. Watch out for morning/evening traffic in Kapaa. We knew that going in. House was well stocked with towels,coolers, and other items necessary to cook. Though, only 2 beach chairs. Wish there was a better shade umbrella; any wind and the one provided didn’t do well. We would stay here again based on the overall location, cleanliness and response of the management.
