I don't think I've ever used the e-word before, but...here I go. This place is ENCHANTING. We loved every moment of our stay. The house is airy, spacious, and beautiful. From the front lanai you look out over a field toward the craggy mountains--a picture-perfect Kauai view. (And as often as not you'll see a rainbow too; I tell you, it's almost too much to bear.) But wait...there's more. In the field is a most handsome and delightful horse (we never learned his name but eventually dubbed him Horace); and in the next field over are many more horses (including Doris and Boris) and some donkeys! And I haven't mentioned all the wonderful cats roaming the "neigh"borhood. And, of course, the chickens and roosters, who mysteriously get along with the cats. But I guess that's how it goes in heaven.
There is a small group of yurt-like buildings next door, hidden by some trees, but we barely heard a peep from the people living there. You can walk to a beach, but the waves there are rather treacherous; we instead drove 10 minutes or so to Tunnels Beach each morning to snorkel. About 15 (?) minutes in the other direction is Hanalei town. The road takes a little getting used to, as it includes innumerable bends and several one-lane bridges, but it must be one of the top three most beautiful routes in the world.
P.S. The people at Oceanfront Realty are wonderful.
