Aikane Kauai is one of the closest and newest homes to Poipu Beach. Central to Kauai and ideal for families, couples and small groups. The home has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths and sleeps from 2 to 7. It is fully equipped with snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, free high speed internet access (WiFi) and lots more. It is also one of the few homes with air conditioned bedrooms. Aikane is Hawaiian for "friendly" which best describes this delightful beach house. All new in 2001.

Please refer to the map on my web site for the actual location of this house. The map quest location is incorrect.

The house is one of the closest to Poipu Beach Park with its protected lagoon, wide open grassy areas and playground equipment over a spongy ground surface. Poipu was voted the best kids' beach in the state by readers of Hawaii Magazine and the best beach in America (2003) by Travel Channel TV which selected Poipu for its beauty, sandy bottom lagoon, sunsets, warm people, safety, climate, creature comforts, and other area activities. The shallow sandy lagoon is excellent for the smallest babies. Since this is a family vacation, also consider the superb snorkeling in the adjacent bay, and for the more advanced, body surfing and boogie boarding at Brennecke's Beach and surfing on the outer reefs.

Families are welcome at Aikane Kauai. I tried to be mindful of the creativity and natural inquisitiveness of children so parents can have a relaxing time. The house is equipped with a baby gate for the stairs, a high chair, day crib, board games and a collection of Disney videos. Best of all there is no need to pile into a car, drive, look for parking, etc. Just put on a swim suit and walk around the corner to the beach. See the map.

Travel Light. No need to rent, buy or lug gear. The house comes equipped with about everything you might want for the beach including masks, snorkels, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach towels, cooler and sand castle building equipment.

In utilizing the abundant Poipu sunshine, hot water and electricity are provided by roof mounted solar panels and photovoltaic cells. We have utility back up for nights and the rare cloudy day. Recycle bins are provided.
