We loved this house and our stay. It really does not get much closer to the beach than this, and that alone was worth it for us. And we loved the big open living/kitchen/dining space, perfect for a big group.
Even though we spent each day driving to other beaches around Kauai, it was amazing to have the ocean in our backyard and be able to walk out there in the morning and evening. Note that the water is a bit calmer and more swimmable if you walk down the beach to the right.
My only minor complaint is it got quite hot in the house and made sleeping a bit uncomfortable for some, particularly in the downstairs rooms that don't have the ocean cross-breeze. It was August though, and most places in Kauai don't have AC so I wouldn't expect that, but a few more powerful fans would be nice.
