For those less active, take a long walk along the beautiful scenic Oceanside walkway along Kauai's eastern coconut coast. The paved walkway is a way for wheelchair assisted visitors to enjoy the scenery and for those with babies, it is a perfect stroll to soothe any child. We suggest early morning walks to capture the awesome sunrises that the coconut coast is known for. Be sure to take along your camera to capture the moment.
The majority of the walking path is paved for a smooth ride. For those more adventurous, an extended pathway continues along an old abandoned cane-hauling road, all along the ocean's edge.

This wonderful property has everything you could want. It has a beautiful view of the ocean from the upstairs balcony. It is just a short walk to the beach which was never really crowded. The house was exceptional. The furniture was true Hawaiian vintage. The master was upstairs with the bath along with the kitchen and living area. The downstairs had two bedrooms, bath, living area and a small kitchen. The location was perfect for walking to shopping and places to eat. The food trucks right across the road were fabulous. There was also a market and bakery close by. The owners, Tom and Linda, lived on the property and were great! Should any problem arise they were right there. You will not be disappointed if you decide to stay here.

The house was really nice and comfortable. The location was perfect: the town of Kapa'a was just across the street in the front and the beach and walking path just outside the back fence. Just as advertised and a great value. It was a great place to relax after a day of sight seeing. The hosts, Linda and Tom, were friendly and very helpful. I highly recommended staying here!

This house is conveniently located with in walking distance to many restaurants, coffee shops, food trucks, shops, and a walking/biking path on the beach. Bike rental place is across the street. It’s one street away from the main road, so less traffic noise.The house is well kept and clean. Like most available vacation rentals on the Island, the interior and furnishing are dated and the harsh salty air affects apparent. The beds are comfortable and multiple fans and ceiling fans kept us comfortable during our late March stay - as there is no A/C. More than enough towels available. The house had everything we needed to make simple breakfasts, do laundry, and a dishwasher.Linda is very kind and accommodating and allowed us to stay past check out for our late flight home, since there wasn't another reservation right after us.Some things to note - The house has vented windows all around so you can hear most things going on outside. There is a restaurant that plays music until 10pm but does not on Sundays. Roosters are everywhere in Kaua'i so if you want to sleep past 6am, bring ear plugs and sleep masks.

This home was perfect for our family and we fully enjoyed our 5 day stay. It was close to everything and specially the food truck area.
We fully enjoyed our morning walks by the beach, beautiful sunrises from the balcony
and from the beach.

Linda and Tom's house is only steps away from a beautiful swimming beach and is very centrally located for the shops and food vans. The beds were very comfortable, the showers hot and powerful and the house had everything in it that we needed. Would definitely recommend!

We had an amazing time. The house was perfect. The grumpy teens could stay in their area downstairs and hangout. The happier adults could enjoy the breeze and view off the upstairs lanai. We were in easy walking distance of both the beach and shopping/food trucks. Everything that you could possibly need was provided. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this beach front property. They say location, location, location. Well this one checks the box as the sunrises are spectacular and home is centrally located for those seeking to explore all parts of the island. Home is clean and stocked with the necessities you need. Thank you Tom and Linda, for being such great hosts during our stay. Until next time!

Wonderful location. The house is large and comfortable. Access to the water is closer than it appears in the pictures. Reasonable rate and hosts Tom and Linda are super friendly. You’re in a neighborhood just off the main drag so expect neighborhood activity, sometimes early in the morning.

The house was comfortable and well stocked. Not only right next to the beach but also in the heart of Kapa'a. Very convenient to restaurants and shopping.

Great location we had teenagers and they didn’t like the fact it didn’t have air conditioning 😜. My wife and I were fine. Great location on the beach with a walking path that goes 4-5miles
