ON THE BEACH AT BALI HAI — MAKANA KAI

This is the essence of tropical perfection, for it is the very spot where the mountain known as Bali Hai, made famous in 'South Pacific', rises from azure waters. Widely regarded as one of the world's most beautiful beaches, it is a breathtaking meeting of ocean and mountains. These views frame this exquisitely positioned property situated right on Makua (Tunnels) Beach.

Surfing, swimming, shelling and Kauai's best snorkeling are just steps away, all sheltered by the fringing reef. It's a thrill to find green sea turtles feeding on the coral ... or to watch a whiskered monk seal 'haul out' onto the sand for a nap.

Makana Kai, an extremely rare offering, is a grand five-bedroom landmark home. It was designed to take full advantage of the pristine waters and white sands of Tunnels Beach. Glass doors disappear as the house opens to a 1,128 sq. ft. deck, perfect for watching the fabled sunsets. The living and dining areas, and both master suites, enjoy these unsurpassed views. A gracious expanse of lawn sweeps from the house to the beach on this unusually large 1.55 acre oceanfront parcel. Tucked away at sea level are a private guest suite and a gym/studio. The mature landscaping is a lush counterpoint to the shimmering ocean beyond. Exceptional appointments include marble baths, a granite kitchen island and countertops, electric skylights, a sound system ... and limestone, marble and wood flooring. The house also features cedar closets, and Italian cabinetry throughout the kitchen and master bathrooms. The generous master suite includes a large office with mountain and ocean views.

Rustling palm fronds and breaking waves lull you to sleep at night. And when there's a full moon over the water ... it is a dream come true.
