With indoor and outdoor living spread across almost 1/4 acre of gardens, our 2 bedroom/2 bath/large lanai plantation-style bungalow provides convenient access to all of Kauai. The beautifully landscaped cottage lies just a 5 minute drive from gorgeous Poipu Beach, and a five minute walk to the best eating and shopping of Old Koloa town. We also offer access to the pool, gym, yoga and court sports at the Poipu Beach Athletic Club. TVRNCU#1090

The space
Blessed by the great light and breezes of the tropics, the cottage flows from comfortable bedrooms and a spacious all-tile bath with walk-in shower, to a well-equipped open kitchen and art-filled living area with a pull-out queen sofa, to the front lanai with comfy seating, dining for 6 and an a second all-tile lanai bath. Then step out into the large, professionally landscaped yard with tropical flowers and fruit trees, and a third shower, private and perfect for that refreshing cleanse after beach or hike. The stainless-steel gas range, refrigerator, dishwasher and SMEG coffeemaker, as well as the full-sized washer and dryer, are all new within the past few years. There is plenty of parking in front of the house reserved for our guests.

The cottage is within easy walking distance of great shopping, grocery stores, and restaurants in Old Koloa Town. Just a few steps away, check out the Koloa Fish Market for fresh poke, Java Kai for great coffee and brunch, and the Fresh Shave for delicious shave ice.

We offer access to the wonderful Poipu Beach Athletic Club, just minutes from the cottage and across the street from Poipu Beach. A full service club, PBAC offer a “nature scape” 25 meter pool with a water slide, machine and free weights, cardio machines, TRX, a variety of classes, and a full restaurant and bar.

The cottage received a positive review in the Frommer's Guidebook for Kauai:

"A renovated old plantation house in the heart of Koloa, this two-bedroom/two-bathroom home, surrounded by tropical gardens, is for the traveler who wants a “real” Hawaii experience living in a residential area, like a local resident.

A whimsical tropical cottage, the entry is through a plant-filled, outdoor lanai, where you will find you will spend all your time — just like Hawaii residents."

The house has overhead fans in every room, a well-stocked kitchen, coffee maker, smart TV, washer and dryer, Weber barbecue, and everything you can think of to make your vacation a success.

In addition to serving as our second home, the cottage is a vacation rental authorized under Kauai County Code, TVRNCU#1090.

Guest access
Guests are free to use the entire house and all within!

Please be mindful that electricity, gas and fresh water are scarce resources on the island of Kauai and are, accordingly, expensive. Mahalo for making wise use!

Neighborhood highlights

Five minutes by car brings you to a long stretch of Poipu beaches, where you can safely swim, surf, boogie board, snorkel, and enjoy scenic hikes that connect one beach to the other. A short walk from the cottage brings you to Old Koloa Town, the buildings of a former sugar plantation that now contain restaurants and shops. Koloa also offers a gas station, a bank, two grocery stores, and a great fish market with an assortment of that day's fresh catch and lots of delicious poke. And for exercise, more shopping and great eating and drinking options very nearby, don't miss The Poipu Beach Athletic Club, The Poipu Shopping Village or The Shops at Kukui'ula. Hiking enthusiasts can also drive to the spectacular Waimea Canyon, less than an hour away, and there is a public golf course about 1/2 mile from the house.
