Convenient location, great layout on Kauai
I’m so grateful that Tom and Linda make their home available for guests. They are friendly, active seniors who live next door. They care about you having a nice vacation.The home is located 1 block away from the Hwy and the center of Kapa’a town. Also, this location is on the Eastern side of the island which makes it a very convenient location for visiting other parts of the island. Don’t miss Waimea Canyon!The home doesn’t have air conditioning (it has many fans), so you have to leave the windows open. Which is lovely and commonplace for Hawai’i. However there are a lot of noises. You will hear bands playing, motors revving, sirens, trucks backing up, and garbage trucks at all hours of the day and night. It is not for a light sleeper, even with ear plugs and white fan noise.The home has a great layout. We were 5 people: grandma, mom, dad and teenage daughters. Everyone had a place to retreat to for down time. I loved the vintage Hawaiian decor. The home has a great vibe. There are lovely views facing the ocean and the mountains, including “sleeping giant”.It’s steps to the beach. However, if you want to take a walk on the bike path, you are going to run into sketchy individuals whether or not you head north or south. The beach also has a lot of washed up plastic and trash unfortunately. There is a shed stocked with beach chairs, pool noodles, umbrella, boogie boards, etc. All in good condition.There is no shampoo or conditioner, but I left some for the next guests.

Great week on Kauai!
Our family had an amazing week on Kauai. Tom and Linda were friendly, courteous and went beyond what one would expect from a host. We saw Tom quite frequently and enjoyed the things he told us about the island and their time on it. The house is big and had everything we needed and more for our stay. There is a view of the ocean from the upper deck which we enjoyed sitting on. The walk to the ocean was a couple of minutes and there were chairs, towels and beach toys available to take with. The town of Kapa'a is across the street from the home with many restaurants and shops. The location on the island made it easy to get both north and south for activities. We highly recommend this as a place to stay and thank Tom and Linda for allowing us to stay in their wonderful home!

My wife and our and 4 adult children/partners/friends stayed here for a week. A big place with 1 master suite upstairs and 2 beds plus bath downstairs. The deck is a great place to relax and watch the ocean. the owners live right next door and are very friendly and helpful. About a two block walk into the little town with restaurants, shops and always popular ABC store.

A Little Piece of Paradise in Kapaa
This wonderful property has everything you could want. It has a beautiful view of the ocean from the upstairs balcony. It is just a short walk to the beach which was never really crowded. The house was exceptional. The furniture was true Hawaiian vintage. The master was upstairs with the bath along with the kitchen and living area. The downstairs had two bedrooms, bath, living area and a small kitchen. The location was perfect for walking to shopping and places to eat. The food trucks right across the road were fabulous. There was also a market and bakery close by. The owners, Tom and Linda, lived on the property and were great! Should any problem arise they were right there. You will not be disappointed if you decide to stay here.

Spacious, convenient location, close to beach
This house is conveniently located with in walking distance to many restaurants, coffee shops, food trucks, shops, and a walking/biking path on the beach. Bike rental place is across the street. It’s one street away from the main road, so less traffic noise.The house is well kept and clean. Like most available vacation rentals on the Island, the interior and furnishing are dated and the harsh salty air affects apparent. The beds are comfortable and multiple fans and ceiling fans kept us comfortable during our late March stay - as there is no A/C. More than enough towels available. The house had everything we needed to make simple breakfasts, do laundry, and a dishwasher.Linda is very kind and accommodating and allowed us to stay past check out for our late flight home, since there wasn't another reservation right after us.Some things to note - The house has vented windows all around so you can hear most things going on outside. There is a restaurant that plays music until 10pm but does not on Sundays. Roosters are everywhere in Kaua'i so if you want to sleep past 6am, bring ear plugs and sleep masks.
