About this apartment rental
Welcome to "Aloha Kai" -- the newest-renovated condo in Lae Nani. Here, modern design meets jaw-dropping, unobstructed ocean views. Inside: AC; a fully-equipped kitchen; stone countertops; all-new, comfortable bedding and furniture; and a spa-like standing shower await. Outside: the crashing waves of Wailua Bay are so close you can smell them (30-second walk to the beach). If you've never been to award-winning Lae Nani before, come discover why so many guests return year after year. Unit sleeps 4 comfortably.
-WHY IT'S SPECIAL-
Look no further for beachfront bliss than Lae Nani Unit #323, Aloha Kai. Our labor-of-love full unit remodel was completed in June 2024. Steps from a secluded beach, sunrise views, heated saltwater pool & tennis courts. Shops and restaurants walkable; Wailua River kayak and Sleeping Giant trailhead just a 5 min drive.
Wailua/Kapa'a, where our unit is located, is centrally located, ideal for exploring both the North and South shores.
-THE PROPERTY-
The well-maintained Lae Nani complex is known for its exquisite landscaping, ‘Great Lawn’ along the beachfront, and quiet beach (with a calmer, protected ‘Keiki Cove’ for kids) a literal stone’s throw from the unit. The recently-redone heated saltwater pool and BBQ area are guest favorites. Breathtaking sunrise views and open-to-the-public morning yoga classes can be found just a 2-minute walk away, outside the Lava Lava Beach Club (property next door).
The unit has all you need for home cooking -- from full cookware, to an Instapot and Air Fryer. But walkable dining options are plentiful:
*LAVA LAVA BEACH CLUB for breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails with your feet in the sand.
*COCONUT MARKETPLACE for groceries, shops, live music, and the famous ‘Chicken in a Barrel BBQ.’ Sushi, Italian, Shaved Ice, bike rental and more are all available in the same complex.
Our location in Wailua, on the east side of Kauai, offers ultimate convenience. Being equidistant from the North (Hanalei) and South (Poipu) shores makes our unit the perfect home base for those keen to explore the island. The trailhead to the Sleeping Giant hike is just a 5-minute drive down the road, as is the entrance to our coastal bike/pedestrian path Ka Ala Hele Makalae, which meanders along the coastline for beautiful ocean side exercise. And don’t forget kayaking Wailua River, snorkeling at Lyngate Park (5 minutes south), or stocking up on provisions at Safeway or Long’s (all within 1 mile of the unit).
The tennis court was just resurfaced in 2020 and has pickleball lines as well.
-OTHER DETAILS-
Free parking. Cable TV available in living and bedroom. Free Disney+. No resort fees. One King Bed + brand new sleeper sofa in living room with memory foam mattress.
GEAR: We provide plenty of beach gear for your use, including: beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, toys and cooler bag. Snorkel and bike rental shops are just down the street for any additional gear you need!
LAUNDRY: Coin (or app) operated washer/dryers available on premises.
ACCESSIBILITY: 2nd floor unit (about 20 stairs) – no elevator.
A NOTE ON TAXES: We are fully licensed and pay all state and county taxes, which show up in your final total before booking as the 'Tax' line item. As of 2024: State General Excise Tax (GET): 4.5%, State Transient Accommodations Tax (TAT): 6.25%, and Kauai County Transient Accommodations Tax: 9.35%. Your stay ensures that our beaches, hiking trails, and roads receive the funding needed to maintain our beautiful ‘Garden Island’.

The property was beautiful and the upgrade on the unit we rented and its amenities were outstanding. The view was exactly as advertised (no exaggerated photograghsetc.) It was amazing

Jon & Sabrina were fantastic hosts that went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The rental had EVERYTHING we needed, from a well equipped kitchen, beach towels, ice chest, and boogie boards for our boys. You just can't beat the centralized location between the north and south shores, the beautiful landscaping and scenery for morning coffee, and the walkable market and restaurants . Napali Brewing Company's live music and good eats, as well as Lotus Ramen were both hits for our family! We would definitely stay here again!

Our 2 weeks at Lae Nani paradise was enhanced by staying in this beautiful condominium! The location and view are amazing but having such a well equipped and beautifully decorated condominium to reside in was the icing on the cake! We will plan to return!

We took a shot on this new listing because we had been to Lae Nani before, and we are very happy we did. The view from Jon’s place alone is enough to make me want to stay in this unit again. We loved taking in the ocean and lawn over coffee in the morning. We were also one of the first to stay in this newly renovated unit and everything inside was great and exactly as described. Very tastefully furnished, brand new bathrooms, air-conditioned---a welcome relief from a lot of the older, more tired stuff we’ve seen on the island. Great kitchen with bar seating and very comfortable bed. The shower was one of the better one’s we’ve used on any vacation. And the Lae Nani grounds are just the best, which we knew. Jon was a very good host. He made sure we had everything we needed and was easy to communicate with. Would return to Jon’s place again without hesitation!
