THE TIDES 
Location:  Poipu Beach, Kauai
3 bedroom / 3 bath / 3000sqr ft

Fabulous oceanfront living! Sophisticated, tasteful furnishings, comfort galore and lots of privacy best describe this very special 3 bedroom/3 bath home. Enjoy unbelievable ocean views from every room. The living area, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths are upstairs; a separate entrance downstairs brings you to a cozy 3rd bedroom, bath, living area, galley kitchen and lanai. The large, covered lanai invites you to enjoy oceanfront dining or just relaxing on the very private and very large oceanfront lawn. Whether a vacation with friends and family or just a romantic holiday for two, this unique home affords the drama of oceanfront living at its best.

This beautiful home with its rugged ocean shoreline, has lava rock tide pools suitable for shoreline fishing but not safe for swimming. There's a great boat harbor just steps away with it's own sandy beach for swimming, shelling and just watching the ocean activities that are part of this wonderful community. The closest good swimming and great snorkeling beach is just 4 blocks away at Lawai Beach. The famed Poipu Beach, well known for swimming and snorkeling, is less than a 10-minute drive down the coast.

This is a very special house. The abundance of glass and the open floor plan maximize the spectacular ocean views from every room. Custom Hawaiian koa wood cabinetry in the well-equipped kitchen, vaulted ceilings, upper and lower level private lanais, and the unique decorating features, all create that special sense of place. Lots of fun furnishings such as the pune'e in the living room that doubles as a comfy Hawaiian bed for watching TV at night, and swivels toward the ocean for whale watching during the day. There are CD players, VCRs and TVs in the master suites and living room upstairs, and a TV, VCR and video game system in the 3rd bedroom downstairs. No air-conditioning, but lots of fans to enhance those wonderful, tropical breezes. Two full baths with tub/showers upstairs, and one bath with shower downstairs. There's an oceanside gas BBQ, and lots of teak outdoor furniture for divine island living.

Upstairs (High Tide) there's a king bed in one of the master bedrooms and a queen bed in the other, along with a double pune'e (daybed) in the living room. Downstairs (Low Tide) there's a queen bed in the bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the living room
