About this property
A True Oceanfront Condo! Freshly Updated! Centrally Located 5 Star Views!
Aloha! Welcome to our freshly updated oceanfront condo located on the "Garden Island" Kauai. - The condo offers stunning views of the culturally significant Wailua Bay and the lush mountain range beyond. My grandparents’ home, the condo was sold, with regret, in 2016, but joyfully reacquired by us in 2021! This 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo is truly steps from the beach, as well as a short walk to fine dining and shopping. Completely remodeled and furnished in 2021, this condo has all the amenities including custom cabinets, wide plank oak flooring, designer-picked furniture, and art. This condo provides you with everything you need to relax and enjoy your island stay! *This condo does Not back to the parking lot. - The complex, appropriately named Lae Nani, meaning "beautiful face", boasts abundant tropical foliage and is nestled on the coast of Kauai's Wailua Bay. Wailua Bay is one of the most sacred places on the island and the ancestral home of the Hawaiian Royals. The stone remains of a sacred temple, known as a "heiau”, sit on the edge of this property, along the coast, and is still visited and used by local Hawaiians today. - Lae Nani has a private gated parking lot, a tennis court, a heated saltwater pool, gas grills, a beach, Keiki (children's) pool, fish, turtles, good snorkeling, and the occasional "endangered" native monk seal. - Lae Nani is located on the east shore in the town of Kapa’a. Kapa'a is centrally located on the island putting everything within easy driving distance, including the airport which is only 10-minutes away. In short, everything you need for a perfect getaway to paradise! *Maximum Occupancy 4 Persons *No Children Under 13 Years We provide: -Stocked kitchen - Living room with 55" smart HD TV - Front Bedroom - Ensuite - King Bed/ Full Bathroom - Back bedroom - Ensuite - King Bed, Full Bathroom, and 40" smart HD TV - Oceanview lanai - High-speed internet and cable - Free parking in a gated lot - Tennis court, swimming pool, beautiful beach, and lush tropical grounds - Boogie boards, beach chairs, ice chest This condo does Not have A/C - We rely on the Tradewind and ceiling fans to provide cool breezes throughout the apartment. The jalousie windows in the bedrooms as well as in the ocean-facing living room can be opened to allow for the flow of air. Kauai is in the tropics, and it does get warm in the summer, but we have never felt A/C was necessary and would detract from the Hawaiian experience as well as the island's sweet scent of plumeria. If you are unable to find availability for your holiday plans, please, view our "Brown Family" condo, also listed on VRBO. Listing# 2690924. It is located in building 5 - Unit #526 Many Mahalos

The unit was very clean with a beautiful view and very nice amenities. Our only minor complaint was the living room furniture was not real comfortable for relaxing/watching television, but we didn't need to do much of that in beautiful Hawai'i.
A bit late leaving this review, but we had an incredible time and enjoyed our Kauai visit while staying at this property. Amazing views, very clean and prime location! Our young boys loved the pool area and the beach.
This property was perfect! The condo was beautiful and the view of the ocean from the deck was spectacular! All the things we needed for the beach were there. We loved it and had a great time.
We had an absolutely wonderful visit! The condo was beautiful, classy and comfortable. Communication was superb. The location is near airport and central to all attractions.
The moment we walked into Kara's condo we knew we were in for a fabulous stay. The view from the patio was breathtaking, the rooms were perfect to support 2 couples and the kitchen was so well appointed we thoroughly enjoyed all meals in. Too many special decorating touches to list but the condo was top notch. The grounds of the property were also gorgeous. We took the 2-minute walk to the beach and/or the pool every morning then enjoyed coffee on the lanai. Couldn't be happier with our stay. Kara was also so responsive and helpful. Truly a 5-STAR stay.
Beautiful condo with a wonderful view! Condo was even better than the pictures and hotel quality, which was perfect for our stay. Nice beach, very convenient and short walk to restaurants and shops. Loved the restaurant on the beach next door where we chose to have cooked breakfast most days and drinks in the evening. Great location for driving around the island as well!
Very lovely property. Well kept grounds, salt water heated pool was a plus! Condo was very clean and comfortable. View from lanai was spectacular! Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful condo! Everything was perfect, comfortable beds, beautiful lanai with relaxing furniture and perfect view of the beach, so relaxing listening to the waves. Kitchen had everything you would need. Classy decor with great furniture and art work. Everything you need for the beach provided, beach chairs, umbrella, which was super important!! No detail was missed. Loved the two master suites with king beds! The grounds were impeccable. Parking is super convenient. The best unit in the complex! Thank you fior everything!
We managed to see wuite a lot: visits included the North area for Tunnel beach. The Botanical Garden Shipwreck Beach Kaapa Beach and even a Kayak Tour and Luau Fun times
Our stay at Lae Nani was everything we hoped it would be. The condo is extremely clean and the decor is beachy and charming. The view from the lanai is gorgeous. The beds and bedding are very comfy and there’s a fun restaurant, Lava Lava, right next door. Would love to stay here again.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our eight days at this condo with the spectacular view. The whole complex is well cared for, nicely landscaped, and in a good central location to easily go to all other parts of the island. The condo is exactly as listed - very nice!! We spent hours on the lanai - it is that scenic!
The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped for a short or long stay. The owner was extremely responsive. Pickleball court on property was an added bonus. Would and will stay here again. Mahalo!
Wonderful spot, outstanding views, pool, ocean cove, and landscaping! We appreciated all the fans, comfy beds and kitchen supplies. Worth every penny on our first trip to Hawaii.

We had a wonderful stay at this direct oceanfront condominium. Beautiful ocean and beach views. Very clean, updated and well cared for.
Everything was as presented in the description and the owner was great to work with.
I would definitely recommend this property to anyone!
This place is great! Lots of room, comfortable beds, the view is AMAZING! Nice little lagoon when you don’t want to play in the larger waves. The pool is great! There is lots of outdoor space to enjoy!
Thank you Kara and family for sharing your home!

The condo was beautiful and comfortable. The ocean view was perfect. The condo had absolutely everything we could have needed. I have never stayed in a condo like this before. The owners thought of everything.
Amazing property, view, location! The condo had everything we needed- well stocked kitchen, beach gear, even a washer and dryer. The beds were very comfortable (living room furniture less so but we were early home to even use the space). Best of all was the amazing view from the lanai and the beach outside. We had such a great time! Thank you for the amazing accommodations.
We stayed in this unit for 5 weeks during our Kauai visit and could not have been more pleased. It was everything we expected and more! The view was spectacular, with surfers frequenting the waters, and we enjoyed daily morning coffee and many dinners on the lanai. The unit itself was very comfortable and very nicely decorated with many island touches and the kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed. The mid-island location was ideal for both north and south activities. Kara was extremely responsive and it was comforting to know that she was there for advice or resolution. Overall, we were super happy with this property and would readily book there again!
Have a plan to see it all and relax early morning/nights listening to the sound of the ocean and seeing it? This is the place for you! Everything you need to relax...beautiful view, centrally located, pools, coffee shop near by, and close to the airport! Lovely little two bedroom condo.
Kara, your condo was just beautiful! Georgia and I enjoyed it so much! My friend is a neat freak so she was thrilled at how clean and well decorated it was! A wonderful getaway for me as a caregiver and Georgia as a large business owner. Thank you!
Located in town of Kapaa the condo has a lovely quiet, residential feel with direct beach and pool access. Eating places in walking distance- especially loved all the Coconut Market Place had to offer (farmers market -Tue and Thu), food trucks and close to Lava Lava beach club etc.
The house is clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and supplies were well stocked (dishwashing pods, washer dryer etc). We sat out
on the lanai every night enjoying the evening breeze, listening to the waves on the beach.
Overall, just what we needed for a relaxing vacation.
Rare find to have two master bed/bath suites, and even more rare to find one decorated so nicely & comfortable! There were so many small things that helped make it delightful, eg plenty of hangers & towels, kitchen with nice cookware, spices, etc, many hooks in bed & bath to hang towels, clothes, great W/D, clear directions for electronics... All of that on top of a great view/lanai & very comfortable beds, along with superb communication with Kara. Definitely recommend!
We really made ourselves at home for our 10-day stay. The view, charm, comfort, and thoughtful details made this place easy to enjoy. The condo had everything we needed although my son would say air conditioning please. With that said there are many great ceiling and mobile fans. I also enjoyed the grounds, pool, beach and walking path nearby. Being in the water or outside under a palm tree in the heat of the day was super enjoyable. This is truly a special place. Thank you to Kara and family for sharing it with us!
Amazing view! The pictures do not give it justice!
From the moment we arrived we knew we picked the right place to stay. The condo was so perfect and so comfortable. We had everything we could need and more. From the "extras" in the kitchen (juicer, spices, etc. and all the other items available to use such as chairs, boards, flippers and more! Trust me when I say that the pictures on VRBO do not do it justice because the view from the lanai is truly breathtaking! The condo was also perfect walking distance to Coconut Marketplace, Passion Bakery Cafe and of course the Lava Lava Beach Club. Kara was also very responsive if we ever needed anything. We would definitely stay here again!
