Haena Beachfront with Stunning Panoramic Ocean Views - TVNC#5134

About Steve Sedgwick

My wife and I fell in love with Kauai over 20+ years ago. We loved it so much we decided to build a house and rent it out so others could enjoy the beauty as well. We currently own two houses in Kauai. One on the North Shore, Oceanfront (Haena - near Tunnels Beach) and the other on the South, Oceanfront (Poipu - Brennecke's Beach). Our children loved both sides of the islands, so that is why we have one on the North and one on the South. It's funny, but the North and the South side are very different and hopefully you can enjoy both. My wife and I are currently full time Kauai residents and maintain the houses. My children are grown up, but still enjoy coming back. When you book either properties, I'm always available to answer questions via email or phone, before and during your trip. We love Kauai and would like you to experience the beautiful island of Kauai too. <a href="http://www.vrbo.com/88190" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.vrbo.com/haow/api/image/vrbo/vrbo/88190/tenure" alt="HomeAway Property" style="border:none;"/></a>

Steve Sedgwick purchased this house in 2001

Why Steve Sedgwick chose Wainiha

We picked this property because of the beautiful sandy beach in front of the house. The colors on the website, are the actual colors of the ocean, no filters. My wife isn't the best swimmer, but doesn't get scared because she can see fish and not go far out. She now goes far because the reef keeps her protected and she knows no sharks can get her because of he protection of the reef. Our friends fell in love with the property. They thought the house was a bonus. They just fell in love with the beach and the area. They loved seeing the endless stars in the sky. We love this house and have so many family memories, watching our children enjoy the property from being so little (3 and 5) to now. They are off in college, but anytime they can come, they are there. I hope you and your family can make memories like ours and experience the splendor of this property and the Island of Kauai.

What makes this house unique

The beach is unique because it doesn't have a beach access right next to it. So, the beach seems private and all yours. Other homes near us have rocks and hardly any sand and can't swim without having to walk to a clear path where it's sandy. The coral reef in front of the house is like a horse shoe, which gives you swimming year round. You don't have to go far out in the ocean to see all types of marine life. Don't be surprised if a turtle passes you by. The endangered Hawaiian Monk seal will sometimes sunbathe and relax by the house in the sand. Remember, they are endangered, so please give them their space. We have seen the whales in migration and have the privilege of seeing one of them breach. It was spectacular. Night time we can see the twinkling lights of Hanalei Bay and thousands of stars.
