The Big O'hana is a lovely property that features not only our main house, Ka Nani Hoa, that sleeps ten, but also our new O'Hana house (the guest house). The O'Hana house has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms as well as a kitchenette and sleeps up to four additional guests. The O'Hana house also has A/C as well as the Main House.
This home is located in the private upscale Poipu Estates neighborhood and is just minutes away from the beach, restaurants and shopping. It is a perfect vacation location for up to 14 guests including adults, children and toddlers.
When you arrive at our home, you will be greeted by a beautiful, ornate, hand carved wooden french entry doors and a porch swing that invites you to come, sit back, relax and enjoy the island breeze. Once inside, this home features coffered ceilings with a large open concept kitchen/living room. Our kitchen has exquisite emerald green granite counter tops and is fully stocked with dishes, utensils and several small appliances, i.e. coffee pot, Keurig, rice cooker, etc. It also has a center island that can accommodate five guests with a large round monkeypod dining table directly behind it; plenty of room for great dinners with great conversations.
The dining area has French doors that lead to the enormous private back yard where family and friends are able to play games and run around. We also have an outdoor eating area, with a propane grill, where you can sit back and relax while enjoying the views of Kauai's interior mountain scenery and feel the Hawaiian trade winds blowing through your hair. After a long day at the beach or playing in the backyard, you can rinse off at our outdoor shower.
The living room is comfortable and relaxing. There is a large flat screen TV that is equipped with Roku, YouTube TV and the home also comes with high speed internet. The property has A/C in every room. Although you can turn the A/C off, open the windows to allow the trade winds to blow right through the home which makes it very comfortable.
There is a separate TV/game room, with seating up to10, that has an attached lanai. Not only is there a separate TV/Game room upstairs, but there is also a playroom.
Kiahuna beach, where you can swim and boogie board, is 12 minute walk or less than a two minute drive from our home. With only a four minute drive, you will arrive at several other beaches; Poipu Beach and Brennecke's Beach. At these beaches you are able to snorkel, swim, boogie board or surf; your experience will depend on which beach fits you the best. You can also walk or drive to Kukui'ula Village Shopping Center. This shopping center is a premier shopping area with lots of boutique shops and an array of restaurants..

We had a wonderful stay. This immaculate house comfortably fit our entire extended family of 8 adults and 5 children. We appreciated all the personal touches, like providing toys and games and books for kids, boogie boards and beach toys and chairs and umbrellas for the beach. The enclosed backyard is perfect for keeping little children where you can supervise them. It is a beautiful property located close to everything. I highly recommend it for a family retreat.

This is a wonderful home in a great location on the south shore. Plenary of room for a large group. We were 8 adults and five children ages 1 to 7. The bedroom description is entirely accurate and the kids really enjoyed sharing a room together (the three toddlers). The home had a great yard. The two bedrooms in the second building are a wonderful oasis for a couple with a child. It is self contained with a kitchen and small living room. The number of bathrooms is ama9!( all around with each bedroom having an en suite. The living, dining and kitchen are are generous and comfortable. We had one issue and the team managing and owning the home were very responsive.

We absolutely loved this home! It was perfect for our size family! We did not want a pool because of little ones and the large area was a perfect size for whiffle ball games and running around! Location was awesome, could walk to shopping ,restaurants and beaches with a short drive to the town of Koaloa! Also beach chairs, towels and wagon were available.
The living area and bedrooms were super comfortable and nice large kitchen made it easy to cook and move around!
Loved this house and only wish we could have stayed another week! Highly recommend!

We had such a great time staying at the Big O’Hana property!! We had a group of 12 and everyone had their own space. We walked to shops and beach. Getting to excursions was so much easier than when we staying in Princeville 2 years ago. Would definitely stay here again!!

Our family of 13 had a wonderful stay. The big backyard is perfect for kids to run around. The house has a great collection of yard game, a hammock, and a ping pong room. Super. Beach equipment is stocked and there’s everything you need. The houses are spacious and well appointed. There’s room enough to gather together and room to find some solitary peace. We had a great time!

We stayed in this home with our Great Big Family, 8 kids, 4 in-laws. It was perfect. We enjoyed the access to the athletic club, the nearby beaches, sea turtles, kayaking, bike rides on the beach, and tour of the Na Pali coast. It was truly an amazing vacation. Our 6 year old called it our “Hawaii home.” We even found out we will be grandparents for the first time while enjoying the patio with everyone one evening. This home will always be special to us. The pictures don’t do it justice. The amenities, beach equipment, and prompt service made it the most enjoyable rental experience we have had. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Kauai will always have a piece of our hearts.
