Property Description
An extraordinary opportunity awaits the discerning buyer seeking a truly exceptional sanctuary. This fully licensed and actively operating vacation rental (TVNCU-5132) is offered turnkey — beautifully furnished and with future reservations in place.
Lovingly held by the same family for 54 years and a successful vacation rental for 29, this magical riverfront haven was built in 1993 by a master craftsman and updated in 2006. The home blends timeless quality with modern upgrades including a solar water heating system and Tesla EV charging setup.
Privately nestled at the end of a secluded driveway, the home fronts the tranquil Wainiha River and is surrounded by lush natural beauty. Ideally located on Kauai's North Shore, it offers access to world-famous beaches, hiking, and attractions — yet feels worlds away. Guests return year after year, drawn by the healing energy, five-star comfort, and soulful ambiance. The property has been featured in national travel publications and maintains a flawless record of five-star reviews.
The spiritual aspects of Hawaiian properties—embodying Aloha, connection to nature, sacred sites, cultural traditions, and energy—are increasingly influential in real estate. They attract buyers seeking not just a home, but a meaningful, harmonious lifestyle deeply rooted in Hawaiian spiritual and cultural values.
