Evacuation procedures are detailed in the rental agreement, as well as posted inside the house. Beach conditions: As a note about the beach, directly in front of the property. Due to Mother Nature, currents, and seasonal changes there is a changing dynamic of the amount of beach at any given time. However, the beach is always in place, beginning just before MacArthur beach park, which is about 1/2 mile west. There are lifeguards, picnic shelters, and a shower located here. The white sand beach goes west for many miles from there, making it one of the longest beaches on Kauai. This property is restricted to TWO vehicles during a stay due to limited parking. While you may have an SUV, you are discouraged from having two of the larger type models (such as a Yukon Denali or similar) due to the confined space on the property. Parking on the private drive and along the roads is not permitted, and will be ticketed and/or towed by the police. E Komo Mai and Welcome to Hale Akala (HOUSE OF THE SUN) Kekaha is the last town westward along Highway 50. It is a collection of rural neighborhoods sewn together where people know each other, and will return a smile. This contemporary home is nothing short of SPECTACULAR! Nothing like it. Stretched out in near-constant sunshine and a long white sandy beach, the town sits at the base of Waimea Canyon. If it's raining everywhere else on Kauai, chances are it’s sunny and dry in Kekaha, especially in the winter months. Residents enjoy a laid-back atmosphere with pristine beaches, enchanting views, and a small-town lifestyle. Above all else, this is a beach town, where everyone owns a surfboard. This designer custom home features an open concept floor plan with high vaulted ceilings, giving the house a tropical airy feeling, perfect for that person who loves COASTAL LIVING in the SUN. As you enter through a landscaped enclosed courtyard with a water feature bridge, it welcomes you into the foyer. The first thing you notice is the open design and soaring ceilings, with a windowed wall of glass looking the ocean. The two master bedroom suites, laundry, kitchen, dining, and living areas are located on the first floor. There are two primary suites on the first floor, each with their own en-suite bathrooms.. The shower in the first suite features an Ann Sacks tiled bath with large, dual head, walk-in shower. The second bath has a large tub and shower clad in Carrera Marble.. The well equipped kitchen features a gas Wolf range and Sub Zero refrigerator, and marble counters with a very large work island, offering ample seating for family and guests. Overlooking the great room is a large lofted bedroom area, accessed by an architecturally inspired stainless steel circular staircase. The loft features the third bedroom with a sitting area, complete with a sofa and large screen TV. There is a third bathroom that has beautiful travertine throughout. From the loft, there are windows looking west, down the shore, providing views of the island of Niihau, and those famous Kekaha sunsets. A generous ocean side lanai offers views of the Kekaha coastline to Niihau and beyond. This location, across the road from the ocean, offers BEAUTIFUL OCEAN VIEWS, and the SOUND OF CRASHING SURF, while enjoying a colorful SUNSET. Close by are several surf breaks, for that person looking for a surfing vacation. The views from this home are truly exceptional. The location of this home, in the area known as Kekaha Sunset, is near the pristine dune backed Polihale Beach Park, the hiking trails of Kokee, the stunning scenery of the Waimea Canyon, and the shopping and restaurants in Waimea town.
