Malapua Ma Ke Kai -Little Garden by the Sea TVNCU-4268 This is an opportunity to own an active vacation rental in historic Hanalei. The number of permitted vacation rentals in Hanalei is severely limited and they don't come on the market very often. This special home is three bedrooms and two full baths. One of the hallmarks of this home is the huge covered lanai, over 700 square feet, with long-lasting Ipe decking - looking out over the stunning backyard toward the Hanalei Mountains and their waterfalls. As the name of this property implies, the backyard is a perfect slice of paradise, boasting manicured gardens and a serene mermaid fountain. Under the house is a screened in "fun room" inviting breezy family gatherings. There's a private outdoor shower, just right for showering off after a day at the beach, or simply enjoy the Polynesian lifestyle with an al fresco rinse. Come and get your big dose of Polynesian Paralysis - it's hard to resist. The home is perfectly situated between Hanalei Bay and the quaint town of Hanalei. The natural setting and the gardens that surround the home will bring a sense of serenity, privacy and joy for your family. Enjoy your meals or a good book on the covered lanai with it's oversized dining table and comfortable benches, chairs and lounges. Summer time swimming or winter time surfing make Hanalei a perfect year round destination. Rub elbows with world class surfers, stroll the beach, kayak on the river, all the water sports are here. Wander around the corner to the Farmer's Market on Saturday. Enjoy walks on Hanalei Bay day or night! Just a block to the beach, less than a block to town, ride your bike to the farmers market, shopping, and dining. This is the best lifestyle imaginable. More highlights of this stunning home include: Brazilian Cherry (cumaru) hardwood floors Gourmet kitchen with gas range, soft close drawers and custom cabinetry Solar electric panels Irrigation system
