Kendall's house is absolutely beautiful. We loved staying at this very cozy, beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean house. Stepping outside of the house, beautiful mountains are to your right, and the ocean is to your left. Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean was so wonderful and relaxing.
A quick note on the dogs since a few comments were made about them: they only barked sometimes, not any more than your neighbours' dogs bark when people pass by their house. It was not an issue at all.
Kendall's house is about a 30 minute drive to Poipu beach which is a very lively and popular beach with great snorkelling, and shops and food places. The Weimea Canyon is about a 30 minute drive. Surfing lessons we did in the north in a cool town called Hanaley, it was just under 2 hours drive. A great grocery store was about an 8 minute drive from us. We recommend that you rent a car.
We loved staying at Kendall's house and if we come back to Kauai, we'll definitely reach out to her for our stay again.
