Family Wish Come True
This home was perfect for our family. My girls made a vacation vision board years ago and have been working and recycling and selling eggs for months to save for this trip. This home suited our needs so well. Had a well stocked kitchen great for meals was tidy and well cared for. I cried when I saw the ocean. I couldn’t believe we were able to take our kids there!

Beautiful beach in a dorm room house
It's in a beautiful setting on a somewhat secluded beach with maintenance crews working what seemed every morning and afternoon. A Princeville facility is one door away and constantly being maintained. We loved being able to walk right onto the beach. The house comes with only the most basic of amenities. You will need to buy all of your own paper products. If your young and used to this type of place you'll love it but for more experienced travelers you'll be disappointed.you'll be disaapointed be r place panbeach

Essence of the island
What an incredibly magical stay. If you want a true island experience this is it! Steps to the number 1 rated snorkeling beach, so many sea turtles! We saw humuhumus, sea cucumbers, so many crabs, schools of iridescent fish everywhere. The home is so cozy with a generous lanai. Laundry and all appliances were easy to use and hosts even offered to restock supplies midway through our stay. We made breakfast every morning and enjoyed our coffees walking along the shoreline. The peace and quiet of being near the end of a dirt road did not disappoint. And the stars!!! All the stars! We hope to come back again and hope to stay at the home everytime!

We have enjoyed Hali Kai on Wanini beach four times before this stay. Last time we stayed was 21 years ago. The house and beach are still perfect paradise. :) The only change was more day beach users :(

Another stay in paradise.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and well maintained. Nice large yard, and great view of Anini. Just steps away from the beach. Beds were comfortable. lots of chairs and a few toys for the kids. We left some boogie boards, we purchased there for the future guests to use. Just an all around wonderful place. This was our third trip renting on Anini Beach and this house was great for 6 people. Suzi and Bob were quick with communications. I highly reccommend this house.

Perfect relaxing beachfront vacation
Clean, well maintained home, exactly as advertised. The house had everything we needed, and the property owner, Suzi, was great to work with. We have stayed on Anini before, so we knew what to expect - crowds during the day, and campers nearby. Mornings and evenings are very quiet, so you have a great beach, snorkeling, paddleboarding, etc, mostly to yourself!

Nice Home on a Nice Beach
The home is very nice and on a calm, sandy, warm, shallow beach. Close to all north shore attractions including the majestic Na Pali coast. Beach goers will park between the house and the beach though and you will need a good vehicle that won’t scrape on the potholes over the last 1/4 mile or so of road. There is no A/C but plenty of fans and cross breeze. In our opinion, much better than a congested resort.

Paradise
Love Anini Beach! We spent 10 nights at the Nakea house. The perfect place for a family with small children. The house was located right at the beach and has good sized rooms. We enjoyed our stay in Suzi’s house and recommend it highly. She provides everything you need to be comfortable including all soaps, towels, linens, kitchen utensils and even an ice maker. So wonderful to wake up to the beautiful beach each day and swim with the turtles! So easy to grab one of the beach chairs and walk steps to sit under a shady tree on the calm beach with no waves. The unpaved portion of the road is short but you will bottom out on the dips so a higher vehicle is advisable. This is a Very secluded area Away from the usual tourist hassles. This is truly paradise!

We knew the location of this incredible residence prior to booking, and it was 100% why we chose Hale Kai. It was better than imagined when we arrived, loving the beautiful end to end Anini Beach view from the Lanai and dining room. Our 11 year old loved the location as well, and enjoyed some fun ball games on the lawn during the day and Bull Frog catching at night. We even had our own Frog Jumping competition! The water is absolutely perfect here for wading and especially snorkeling. During all weather, the protected reef is a huge playground for swimming and snorkeling. As with anywhere, be smart about going out. When in doubt, just don't go out. That being said, it was perfect everyday for us and we even hit Tunnels Beach one of the days we were there. It was a perfect week. Happy Father's Day to me!

Beach House on Anini
I stayed here with my wife and three young daughters. It was a pleasure to have a house right next to a family friendly beach. My girls loved being able to simply cross the road and be at the beach. Suzie was incredibly kind, and we are grateful we were able to stay at her amazing house! Mahalo

Loved being here
There are beautiful beaches in Kauai and Anini is very special. To be here and look out at the water could not be better. The only problem was when people came down here, parked in front of the house and then made noise into the night. Not a constant problem. Overall, I'd highly recommend the stay.

About the host

Hosted by Bob and Suzi Nakea

Host profile image
Nakea Kauai Vacation rentals offers three properties for rent, a one bedroom ocean bluff condo at Sealodge in Princeville (Kai Nani), a three bedroom beachfront home (Hale Kai) and a one bedroom beachfront cottage (Punana Aloha). The latter two are both located at the secluded end of incredible Anini Beach. All three properties are owned and lovingly cared for by Bob Nakea and his daughter Suzi. Bob and Suzi are native Hawaiians whose family's roots on Kauai go back to the 1800's. No attention to detail on the properties is overlooked, and each home is furnished with the comfort of its guests foremost in mind.

Why they chose this property

In the North Shore's idyllic setting you can: swim, surf; sunbathe, scuba dive or snorkel, wind surf (with rental boards and lessons available at Anini Beach Park), go shore fishing, book a deep water charter; beach comb, go horseback riding at Princeville Stables, watch polo games at Anini Beach, hike the island's awesome trails, enjoy gourmet dining, work out at the Princeville Spa (featuring daily and weekly memberships giving access to the latest exercise equipment, large lap pool, Jacuzzi, wet and dry saunas, and numerous aerobics, yoga, aqua -size and weight training classes), pamper yourself with a facial treatment or full body massage, whale watch, take a Na Pali Coast boat tour or a sunset sailing cruise in Hanalei Bay, book a helicopter tour of fabulous Waimea Canyon, play tennis, enjoy worldclass golfing (with discounts at Princeville's Makai and Prince courses), drive around the island and take in the sights, or just simply lie back and bask in the simple glory of being in one of earth's most naturally beautiful and peaceful places.

What makes this property unique

Hale Kai's location almost at the dead end of Anini Road (1/5 mile after paved road ends and gravel and sand road begins), where there is only a single row of homes along the beach, means that our guests enjoy quiet and privacy not found along most of the rest of Anini. The protecting reef (one of the largest in Hawaii) assures that the waves break far out and not on the shore, and the calm shoreline and shallow waters make the area in front of the house ideal for swimming and snorkeling most of the year (except during periods of high winter surf). It is a wonderful beach for small children as it has a smooth sandy bottom (no holes to worry about!).
