Hale Nahele Makai — “The Jungle House by the Sea”
Perched on a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking Kauai's lush North Shore, Hale Nahele Makai offers an exceptional blend of tropical privacy, resort-style living, and sweeping ocean and jungle views. Nearby access to Sealodge Beach, year-round trade winds, colorful sunrises and sunsets, seasonal whale watching, waterfalls, rainbows, and abundant birdlife create an extraordinary island lifestyle.
Thoughtfully remodeled in 2012 and expanded and enhanced in 2024, this flexible split-level residence features approximately 2,960 square feet of interior living space, including a walkout basement and an attached 480-square-foot two-car garage. Architectural details include soaring open-beam wood ceilings, Brazilian Jatoba hardwood flooring, ceramic tile baths, and a gourmet kitchen highlighted by Brazilian Bahia Blue granite countertops.
Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home offers nearly 980 square feet of expansive lanais that capture breathtaking ocean and jungle vistas, along with covered storage for surfboards, kayaks, and outdoor gear.
Set on a beautifully landscaped 0.33-acre lot, the property features manicured lawns, privacy hedges, mature palms, plumeria, and lush tropical gardens. Lava rock terracing descends the valley-facing rear yard, creating an ideal setting for a private botanical retreat. A thriving orchard includes mature mango, avocado, citrus, banana, starfruit, and other fruit trees.
Ideal as a primary residence, second home, or vacation rental, the property also offers future expansion potential. A fifth bedroom sleeping area is possible. Previously approved County and HOA plans are available for a detached 525-square-foot garage, providing the option to convert the existing garage into additional living space.
A rare opportunity to own a private island sanctuary where ocean views, tropical beauty, and modern comfort come together in one exceptional Kauai property.
