The weather on Kauai's west side was overcast and drizzly yesterday..... more the exception than the rule for the leeward side of the island.  I was among a few hardy Realtors who toured the following properties.

Remarks: Welcome to beautiful Hale Ilima. Kekaha's sandy shores await you. Located directly across the street from the sandy beach means this is an unbelievable location for this price on the island. Hear what one of the guests of Hale Ilima had to say; "The house was perfect & had everything we needed. It was far enough from the bustling parts of the island to make for a very relaxing vacation. The beach across the street was great for swimming and we had it to ourselves most of the time. I only wish we could have stayed longer." BJ, SanFrancisco, CA. This quality home was built by Ian Cronshaw, famous for his Pacific Island Homes. Cronshaw's signature features include, vaulted, open-beam ceilings, wood flooring, a soothing color palette and walls of windows to frame the ocean views. For those wishing to continue to use this property as a vacation rental, the TVR, (Transient Vacation Rental), application has been submitted to the County. This home comes complete with all of the lovely Hawaiiana furnishings - including a classic claw foot tub. The linens and kitchen package are also included. You'll have the best seat in the house for whale watching from your wrap around deck. French doors open up the front bedroom, but you can still see the ocean from the bed when you close them. (The artwork is not included because of its sentimental value but you'll want to find your own pieces to make the decor your own). Please note that the location of this property is incorrect on the "Google" mapping system. Aerial photos are attached with arrows that show the proper location.
