About this property

DIRECT OCEAN FRONT W/BIG VIEWS... Kapaa Sands

Centrally located on east coast of Kauai, commonly known as the Royal Coconut Coast. If you have found this property you have found a jewel. No other coastline provides you with central access to both north and south shores; no other coastline provides you the famous Kauai coastal bike path to deserted white sand beaches. Kapa'a Sands is one of the most sought after destination points due to its island access and uniqueness. No Parking fees, no wifi fees, no resort fees, and no amenity fees. This is a small boutique property that is preserved in the 'old Hawaiian charm' and is the closest property to waters edge. (Tax Map Key: 430020020000)

Right on the beach, sleep to the sound of the waves.
The location is great as you can easily explore both ends of the Kauai from here. You are staying metres away from a beach that is great for adults and kids, It has a rock pool for swimming and is a popular fishing spot. The apartment is nicely appointed: the bed is comfy, kitchen is great. The bathroom is tiny but it works. Only problems were we couldn't get the TV to work (and TV is quite small) and we would've appreciated some washing powder for the laundry,

Loved that we were just steps from the ocean. There was no A/C but the wind blowing through the windows and door was sufficient. Could hear the surf all night long. Very relaxing. Was able to see the sunrise from our balcony.

The ocean really is the star of the show! With a lanai to sit, to eat, to drink morning coffee with the ocean right there. Nearby beaches, comfortable bed and well-equipped kitchen.

This studio apartment was just lovely. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves every night. The studio apartment had everything we needed. Christine and Dennis addressed every question we had. We also highly recommend Lemongrass seafood grill. Wonderful dishes.

Ocean, ocean, ocean
If you love the sound of the ocean you’ll love this property. We so enjoyed the crashing waves and the quick walk down to our little beach area. The home had everything we needed and was in walking distance to shopping and restaurants. The bathroom is tight but we didn’t plan to spend much time in there so it wasn’t a problem. I might suggest blinds on the side windows to reduce light from the other townhouse shining through at night. Having said that you won’t be disappointed at this property.

Honeymoon
Small simple place looking right down of the beach and ocean. We enjoyed fixing breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the kitchen and eating on the balcony overlooking the ocean. The sound of the waves as night were peaceful. This is not a luxury resort, but it was quiet, uncrowded, and a beautiful setting. I would come here again.

Absolutely perfect!
The location in the middle of the east coast, right on the beach - best, most relaxing vacation ever! Clean, tasteful decor, comfortable bed, super easy checkin, walking distance to Coconut Marketplace with great shops, and happy hour at lava lava beach club. Can't wait to go back! Just bring ear plugs and sound screen unless u dont mind roosters crowing before dawn...

Everything You Need
Perfect location for staying home and watching the waves or heading to a local attraction for an adventure. The kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed many meals from the balcony as we watched the waves. We saw whales in the distance on day 1. The owners provide all the necessities for a day down by the water. We didn’t use the pool because the ocean was perfect for a refreshing dip and a little snorkel action. We loved every minute of our stay. This condo is a gem.

Fantastic property!
Everything was as described, but you can hardly do this location justice. We loved every aspect of our stay. The location is superb, right on the beach, the second story made the ocean views and privacy perfect. It was a short walk to shops and a market, short drive to everything on the island we wanted to see. There are famers markets all over the island, everyday there is a new one, so we shopped those and with the full kitchen an the grocery story a mile away we were able to cook excellent meals when we did not feel like going out. Lots of restaurants nearby to chose from when we did want to go out. There was all the beach stuff you could want right on the balcony, beach towels, umbrella, snorkel gear and boogy boards. Coolers in the cupboard for the beach. All very useful. Look forward to our next visit!

Amazing View
My husband and I stayed for 10 days on our honeymoon. We enjoyed our stay and spent most time at the condo on the balcony enjoying the AMAZING view. The beach is even only steps away from the room so we visited it often as well. This is a wonderfully located place to stay on the island as you can visit both the North Shore or South Shore of the island without having too far to drive. There are several restaurants within walking distance of the room and wonderful activities within a short drive. The view from the balcony will still remain my favorite part of our whole vacation. I could sit and watch the beach and ocean all day. We even saw sea turtles!

It was a nice space with beauty on all sides. We had everything we needed during our stay, great communication leading up to our stay, and the sounds of the ocean lulled us to sleep. Plus, it's close to the airport, restaurants and shopping.

A Hidden Jewel
Christine and Dennis’ place is very special. There are not many places with such a beautiful ON A BEACH location. The old Hawaiian style of buildings is quiet and serene (excepting the morning rooster wake-up that you get everywhere on the island!). Beautifully appointed and perfect for two! Thanks for letting us share your paradise!!

The View, the location the unit Perfect!
You cannot go wrong with this VRBO, from the moment you walk in you know you are in the perfect vacation place. The condo is a studio but felt open and much bigger than most studios. Wide open views of the most spectacular beach, crashing waves, turtles, surfers and beach walkers. The beach is right outside the unit, you are on the oceanfront. A quick short set of steps and you are at the beach at the water, which is clean and beautiful. The condo is beautifully decorated, has every kitchen amenity you could need, all in good working order. Ceiling and floor fan along with breeze off the water made us very comfortable, we would not have needed AC even if there. Added bonus of ice trays which we made everyday and used with the provided cooler for our adventures out and happy hours in the evenings. Every beach item you could want is there. Local condo owners and other vacationers were delightful and very welcoming. This was a wonderful central location for going anywhere on the island. We are use to heavy traffic from home and found getting around not a problem and quite easy. Dining options are close and some even within walking distance if desired. We loved the local food trucks especially Musubi and really liked the food at Pono Market. The unit is accessed by a keypad which the owners send you a code before arrival, we found this perfect to not have to worry about a key. This place was refreshing and relaxing, the sound of the waves never goes away. We loved our stay here.

About the host

Host profile image
My wife Christine and I came to Kauai and immediately fell in love with this place. We are so excited to have been given the opportunity to own and share it as a vacation rental with you!

Why they chose this property

After touring the island and then walking and biking along the coconut coast, It became very apparent to us that this location offered a unique opportunity to experience 'old Hawaii' the way it used to be. Other places are quite nice but none have the 'end of the road' feeling of peaceful seclusion and being lost in paradise.

What makes this property unique

Built on the historical site of an old Shinto temple where mountains, gardens, rivers and ocean meet have made this the best location on island.
