Waimea House | Kai Nalu, Spacious, Beachfront Home, A/C

Experience the Luxury of a Spacious, Beachfront Home in Waimea

Welcome to Kai Nalu, which translates to "Ocean Wave" in Hawaiian. This stunning spacious beachfront home is perfectly situated right on the sands of Waimea, nestled between the tranquil river and the historic Waimea Pier. Located on the sun-kissed west side of Kauai, this exquisite property sets the stage for your unforgettable getaway in paradise.

As you unwind here, be mesmerized by the breathtaking ocean views, which include a spectacular sight of Ni'ihau, known as the Forbidden Island. Each evening, you can witness the sun gracefully setting into the sea from an almost endless stretch of charcoal sand beach. For swimming adventures, we recommend visiting nearby life-guarded beaches. Take your time strolling along the shoreline where you may spot shimmering green crystals in the sand; these are olivine, the gem-quality version of which is known as peridot, the August birthstone.

The home features two expansive lanais that showcase mesmerizing vistas of Ni'ihau sunsets, making it an ideal spot to savor your morning coffee or relax with a refreshing drink while soaking in the beautiful scenery.

The bright and inviting living room is designed to highlight the gorgeous ocean backdrop. The massive master bedroom suite offers a cozy sitting area accompanied by equally stunning views. Indulge in the luxurious master bath, complete with marble flooring, an oversized glass block shower, and a jacuzzi tub featuring an ocean view. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with a gas island cooktop, tiled counters, and modern appliances that cater to all your culinary needs.

This environmentally conscious home employs innovative green technology, including solar hot water and electricity, ensuring a sustainable stay without compromising luxury.
