Description

Just imagine being the fortunate one to seize this extraordinary opportunity to own one of Kauai’s longest-operating and most successful vacation rentals with grandfathered legal status. Offered for the first time ever, this legacy property has been lovingly maintained by the original owner, now retiring after 55 years on Kauai. His dedication has built an impeccable business and local reputation.

In a market where legal non-conforming vacation rentals are increasingly scarce and demand continues to soar, this is a rare gem for the discerning investor or lifestyle buyer seeking both strong income potential and a personal retreat. The Hawaiian energy of the property, paired with the cozy feel of the home, creates a palpable sense of peace, familiarity, and comfort.

Located in one of the North Shore’s most desirable settings, the property offers ultra-privacy and effortless access to everything that makes Kauai magical. Just 5 minutes east is Hanalei town; 5 minutes west is Haena State Park. Between them lie miles of world-famous beaches—the nearest just 3 blocks away.

Whether you seek a high-performing vacation rental, a rejuvenating personal sanctuary, or the best of both worlds, this one-of-a-kind offering truly embodies the spirit and soul of Kauai.

Don’t miss this chance to own a proven income-producing property in one of Hawai‘i’s most sought-after locations.The ability to step into a fully operational business with a 30-year track record and built-in clientele is an opportunity that rarely comes along.
