Island Enchantment
A Healthy, Fun Tropical Retreat and Hawaiian Paradise Adventure
Aloha. We invite you to enjoy a special island paradise experience
on Kauai.
Your vacation retreat, a beautiful island-style home, rests in a lush tropical
setting.
Birds splash in the river as it flows by and mountain peaks rise close behind.
The sound of ocean waves calls you to an uncrowded beach just a five minute drive away.
Relax on our huge lanai (deck) and enjoy papayas, bananas, or coconuts you've
picked from a tree bordering the lanai. Walk over the wide lawn for a quiet
moment by the river bank (and catch the swing under our giant shade tree).
Everywhere you look, you are soothed by shades of green--fields, jungle,
coconut groves. .... It's truly an idyllic rest spot in a healthy, nonsmoking
environment.
Your
river-front room has a private French door entry off the lanai, a private bathroom
and is appointed island-style. Guests enjoy the use of all common areas in our relaxing,
4-bedroom, island-style house: video loft, kitchen & dining
room, entry area and giant lanai. Enjoy preparing your own
meals while looking out on our tropical surroundings.
For your explorations we provide (free) boogie boards, snorkel equipment
and bikes. Or rent a kayak, launch into our river and paddle to our beautiful
white sand beach with its crystal clear tide pools!
Centrally located in Anahola on the east coast of Kaua'i, we are midway
between the rugged Na Pali cliffs of the north shore and the serene beauty
of the Waimea Canyon on the west side of the island.
