About this property

Kauai -Anahola Beach Front

NA PAINA is a spacious 2-story cedar house nestled in ironwood trees right on the sandy beach at Anahola Bay. This classic beach house has two decks and spectacular ocean views. Anahola is a secluded bay, located in a small residential community and has a sand-bottom (not coral) beach suited for swimming and surfing. Tide pools and snorkeling areas are located at each end of the bay, a short walk down the beach. If you are looking for a resort experience, this is not it! The house is perfect for family gatherings or small groups and sleeps up to ten people. It is within easy driving distance of restaurants, golf, and shopping.

This property is located in a tsunami evacuation zone. See tsunami evacuation information attached to your rental agreement.

Family Fun

The house was very comfortable for our ten person extended family. Of all our VRBO vacations, this house was the best stocked with beach equipment, picnic coolers, ice packs, kitchen utensils/cooking gear, and house basics like dishwasher pods, toilet paper, and washing machine soap. Centrally located to both the east shore and north shore attractions. Beach was perfect for boogie boarding. One downside was cars and trucks driving on the beach near the tree.line.

School Choir Trip

We traveled with a 26 student high school choir around Kauai, singing in churches, retirement homes, and community centers. Most of the kids and a few chaperones stayed at Kumu Camp, which is very close proximity to this home. 8 chaperones and 2 students stayed in the house and it was perfect for preparing food for the kids and chaperones at the camp. We were la very short walking distance to them and able to deliver food easily. Check-in was super easy. The house gets warm during mid-day, but the breeze cools it during the evenings and mornings if you keep the fan running. The view of the ocean from the deck is phenomenal! The owners are extremely quick to respond and very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for the great memories!!

Excellent location next to an awesome beach

The house is older and wonderfully rustic but well appointed. Very spacious with plenty of room for 10-12 depending if some folks can double up. The large deck with views overlooking the beach and ocean is spectacular. Beach access couldn’t be easier too. Finding the driveway can be tricky, look for a a black iron gate at the end of a concrete wall. The driveway is narrow so large vehicles might be a problem but it makes the parking area very private. We had such a wonderful week, will consider this house again in the future.

Outdated house with impossible curtains

Great home in a residential neighborhood. The house itself is outdated but comfortable. My only complaint is the window treatments. They are almost impossible to utilize, the wooden rods are too large for the metal grommets and therefore the curtains do not move along the rod and make it really hard to actually get privacy.

Awesome Family Trip

We had an amazing stay at this house. The house was right on a great beach, 2nd story view from the deck was incredible, beach supplies were more than we expected as well as the rest of the house was well equipped. The entire family absolutely loved the house and if we return to Kauai with a large group again we will definitely stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful vacation in Kauai.

Beautiful setting, close to many activities

This is a great house for a family gathering or group of friends. It's large and well equipped. The view is spectacular. The beach is lovely with a tidal river that allows for calmer swimming or paddling just up the beach. The yard is full of exotic birds, and monarch butterflies, and yes the Hawaiian bird-chickens. A note: There are vehicles allowed on the beach. Mostly the local surfers, but they drive carefully, and there are not many. It didn't bother us. The Dockins are great hosts, and were very communicative though our reservation and stay.

This house is a home! It is well stocked in every area for a family of 9. Beautiful views! Only draw back is it's very close to a local beach access and campground. That made for a lot of vehicles and people.

Glorious Vacation with our family

We loved every minute of our week in Kauai and Na Paina was everything we hoped it would be. Glorious ocean and beach right in our back yard, and we savored our time on the beautiful deck too ~ especially watching the sunrise every morning. Such a comfortable home, in a great location for all of our play and adventures. Thank you!

Great house

The house was perfect for our family. All of the child and baby amenities were very helpful. Plenty of space and having a bedroom for each bathroom was perfect. Beautiful scenery from the deck. There are people who drive on the beach with loud exhaust but they were careful to drive around us and they were quiet once the sun went down. There was a problem with screen doors but Annie was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay there again.
