☺Memorable Eastside Apartment Close to Ocean

Beautiful spacious apartment with "bonus room" - a screened lanai. 2 blocks to the beach & the amazing bike path. Secluded yet walking distance to many restaurants and stores. Gazebo and barbecue in the grounds, plus rocking chairs and small tables so you can enjoy a morning coffee or evening glass of wine with an unobstructed view of Sleeping Giant mountain and a field of grazing cows. The space The Space Whether you are visiting Kauai for a few days, a few weeks, or even a few months, this charming renovated apartment surrounded by tropical vegetation and whimsical statues and art objects will quickly make you feel settled and “at home'. It's part of a small and friendly community full of Aloha spirit. You can arrive, move in, unpack and unwind -- or head straight to the beach. The Space: The apartment is ideal for two people. It's very spacious with a separate screened lanai (sitting room) as well as an open-plan living/dining area & kitchen. It's fully furnished and equipped, and artistically decorated with Hawaiian art, granite counter top, etched glass mirrors, indirect lighting, and marble floor inserts that will remind you of Italy. The kitchen, living/dining area are open-plan with plantation shutters on the windows, two desk top fans and (if you need it) an air conditioner in the bedroom. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped with dishwasher, microwave, full-size refrigerator, blender, coffee-maker, toaster, and cooking equipment. The bedroom has a queen-size bed, a floor fan, storage drawers beneath the bed, and a mirrored closet. Off the bedroom is a private screened-in lanai (porch) - sitting room - with comfy chairs to relax in. The en suite bathroom has a walk-in stall shower and designer tiles on the walls and floor. The Immediate Neighborhood: The apartment community has a unique vibe. There's an outdoor table and stone seats near the entrance among the trees. There's a gazebo, barbecue facility, and open space in the field adjacent to the property. Several washers and dryers are on site (no charge). There's plenty of off-street parking. The Kauai bird As you may know, the entire island of Kauai has an abundance of wild roosters and chickens, and they love hanging around near the property. The roosters tend to be quiet in the evening after it gets dark (when they roost), but they are prone to wake up and crow at odd hours during the night. Some people sleep right through it from Day 1, others say they get used to it after 1-2 nights - especially if they have busy, active days and are zonked out by the time they go to bed. We can't do anything about the roosters' body clocks, but we do provide our guests with hermetically sealed packages of earplugs for sleeping! Also running the AC and/or fans during the night helps to block out the crowing sound. Some find the chickens and roosters charming (we've seen many of our guests photographing them!) Other people find them annoying. But they are a fact of life in Kauai. We ask our guests not to feed them or encourage them, but they are persistent birds. One reason the wild chickens and roosters are in such abundance in Kauai is that there were 2 hurricanes (in 1982 and 1992) and domesticated fowl escaped and bred. Unlike Maui and other Hawaiian islands, Kauai never let the mongoose (chicken predator) in to the island. OK now a warning: Kauai's chickens like to dig a hole to sit in. So where ever you walk be careful not to put your foot into a "chicken hole"- we know from first hand experience and the local hospital told us they get at least two patients every week who have seriously damaged their ankles by inadvertently stepped into a "chicken hole". Sprains take three weeks to heal but breaks take longer! Kapa'a: It's the largest city on the island, although it is a “village" compared with any major mainland city. Kapa'a is centrally located, friendly and picturesque - as noted by recent articles in the Garden Island newspaper, Forbes magazine and the Huffington Post. At a pinch, you could get around without a car – walking, biking, or using the local bus service – but a car is important for real exploration at your own pace. You can walk to many stores, the Kapa'a post office, banks, pharmacies, Big Save supermarket, the beach, and restaurants. Kapa'a has numerous fine dining, specialty and ethnic restaurants & cafes in all directions -- including seafood, burger places, coffee houses, food carts, Thai, Japanese, Mexican, Czech and Indian restaurants - as well as local Hawaiian cuisine. The Island of Kauai: There is no shortage of guidebooks and good Internet resources describing this piece of Paradise – but you are invited to relax and discover Kauai at your own pace: “Slow down – this ain’t the mainland”. You’ll find a few recommendations in our Guidebook on the website. After you book, we will provide you with a detailed “Welcome” message to help you plan your visit, including our personal insights into unique Kauai experiences and local secrets. Interaction: We have a great team! Matt, our on-site hospitality manager will be available during your stay by phone, e-mail, or in person to answer any questions or give you local information. I'm also available by email and sometimes in-person. Otherwise you will have the place entirely to yourself. We don’t disturb you (unless you have a problem), and we don’t put a chocolate on your pillow. Access: Kapa'a is about 8 miles north of Lihu'e airport. After you have made your reservation, we will give you specific directions for finding this apartment since it's well hidden, with no road signs. Although the apartment community is in a commercial area in the middle of town, it's surrounded by tropical foliage and an open rural area at the rear with a view of Nonou (Sleeping GIant). For days when you want to sightsee, you can drive easily to the north and south shores of Kauai. When you just want to relax, swim, or body-surf, you can walk to the closest beach (Kapa'a Beach Park) which is a beautiful crescent-shaped stretch of sand and good for swimming most of the time since it's protected by an offshore reef. Fuji Beach - also known as "Baby Beach" has shallow calm water and tidepools - great for young children to splash in. Or you can drive a short distance to Lydgate Park or - if you are a surfer - Kealia Beach. Those are good nearby eastside beaches. But be careful -- Kauai is not the languid Caribbean - there are strong waves and potential rip tides at some beaches. Whatever you do, don't miss the Kapa'a walk/bike path – Ke Ala Hele Makalae, the “The Path that Goes by the Coast". The path is 5 minutes from the apartment, and we have a selection of bikes available (see photo) that you can borrow and ride - at your own risk - for the entire 8-mile round trip to the far end of the paved path and back. They are "beach cruisers" - not fancy, and only 1-2 gears - but they are comfortable. The terrain is reasonably level - you don't need a 21-speed bike. Enjoy the experience of staying in Kapa'a, close to everything - but away from it all! The Price In addition to the accommodation charge and the cleaning fee, a 18.712% (as of Jan 1, 2026) Hawaii state and county "short term rental" occupancy tax is applicable, comprised of the General Excise Tax (GET) and the Transient Accommodation Tax (TAT). That tax is payable no matter where you stay in Kauai. Unlike many of the hotels and resorts, we have no “amenity fees,” no resort fees, no wi-fi fees, no linen fees, no management fees, no “energy” fees, no fees for use of the bikes, no parking fees, no fees for using the laundry machines – no kidding. The Fine Print: • Check-in after 3:00 pm, check-out by 11:00 am. Depending on our other bookings, we may be able to offer a late checkout for a small fee, but you will need to arrange that with us in advance. And please: • No smoking anywhere in the apartment or the grounds, except in the gazebo at the far end of the field where cars are parked - and then only if there isn't anyone else present who might object to the smoke. Please extinguish all cigarettes and dispose of the butts in the trash container (don't throw them on the ground). • Follow local Hawaiian custom and remove your shoes when inside the apartment. Otherwise Kauai's famous red dirt will follow you in! • Be sure to turn off the AC, fans, stove, burners, and coffee maker when you are not in the apartment -- and also when you check out. • No parties or loud noise -- except in or near the gazebo at the far end of the grounds. • Don’t hang beach towels, swimsuits or other personal items anywhere outside your apartment. • Don't leave your door open for long - mosquitoes will likely find their way in if you do. • Don't feed or encourage the wild chickens and roosters! • Don't let any of the cats inside your apartment. You may love the kitties, but be considerate of guests who stay after you (many people are allergic to cats). • We provide bikes for your use at no charge (basic beach cruisers that show signs of wear including some rust on the metal parts), and you use them at your own risk. Our bike rules are posted outside the bike shed. • Notify our on-site team immediately if something needs fixing. Guest access It’s a complete self-contained apartment with its own kitchen and bathroom and separate entrance. There is a large field adjacent to the apartments (where cars park) with strategically placed rocking chairs to enjoy the view of Sleeping Giant mountain and a field of grazing cows. Also, there’s a gazebo and a barbecue. Other things to note DISCOUNTS We offer the following discounts on your accommodation: • 7 or more nights 5% discount • 14 or more nights, 8% discount • 28 or more nights, 11% discount The discount will be automatically deducted from the cost of your stay. TRAVEL INSURANCE We strongly recommend that you obtain travel insurance for your trip. Airbnb now offers very good travel insurance to guests from the US, the UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, Austria, and Portugal through a partnership with a major global insurance provider, AON, & its subsidiaries: Europ Assistance Group and Generali Global Assistance. Besides covering up to 100% of your non-refundable Airbnb costs, the insurance also covers other travel-related items such as flight cancellations, travel delay, lost or damaged baggage, and medical expenses. You can buy this travel insurance at the time you book your accommodation – in much the same way as when you book airline travel. The cost is a small percentage of your total trip price. The specifics of what the policy covers will be displayed to you before you buy it. You can review a general description of the coverage if you go the Airbnb Help menu and use the search phrase "Travel Insurance". CLEANING BEFORE YOU CHECK IN This apartment will be deep cleaned before you check in. It’s for your protection! It is a very thorough process taking several hours.
