 If your vision of a Kaua`i vacation is set in a charming, two-story cottage that appears to rise out of a jungle clearing, take a look at Mapuana. Surrounded by lush tropical vegetation that shelters a pleasant second-story lanai, this is a retreat from the busy world with plenty of privacy.
|
|  In the Hawaiian language, Mapuana refers to the delightful fragrance of the laua'e fern that thrives in the Ha'ena area of the north shore. This dark green fern is frequently used for decoration when performing kahiko, the ancient form of hula.
|
|  To make it even more inviting, this home is newly remodeled and decorated. There are four bedrooms, two on the lower level and two on the upper level where the kitchen, dining area and living room are located. The deck off the living room is comfortably furnished and thoroughly enticing. New appliances have been installed with granite counter tops in the kitchen. An enclosed outdoor shower is an added bonus.
|
|  The ocean, with long stretches of sparsely populated beaches, is just beyond the trees. The address is Ha`ena, which is a peaceful community situated on Kauai’s dazzling North Shore. Buying groceries in any volume will mean a trip to Hanalei, though the Wainiha Store stocks beverages and snacks.
|
|  This home is a short distance from Ke’e Beach at the end of the road and close to the magnificent Na Pali Coast. The 11-mile Kalalau Trail, which winds along the rugged Na Pali coastline crossing one stunning beach after another, begins at Ke’e. And you don’t have to hike the trail to find some of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
|
|  The Princeville Resort provides two world-class golf courses, helicopter and horseback rides are available nearby, and in the summer, you can try sea kayaking along the Na Pali. Hanalei, with its old plantation-style stores and variety of restaurants and coffee shops, is a good place to wile away a day or spend an evening. |
