The Charter Cottage and Charter House both share the same landscape of coco palms, limes, oranges, avocado, breadfruit papayas, and other tropical ornamentals. The premises are located one block from Hanalei Bay on the North Shore of Kaua'i.
Charter House (located on the same property as The Charter Cottage) is a colorful three bedroom tropical vacation rental, capable of sleeping up to six, with all the amenities you would want or expect.
Charter House is built in the old style of "board and batten" and on stilts; graced with high ceilings to keep the days cool. You'll find ceiling fans in every room as well. Old fashioned double hung windows are found throughout and will keep the hottest day at bay, as well as offer great views from most rooms.
The panorama from the spacious lanai, kitchen, and dining room offers some exquisite views of waterfalls cascading in the distance. The tiled lanai has a hammock and two lazy rocking chairs where you can spend the day counting waterfalls.
The dining and living area boasts a big dining room table with chairs and two comfortable couches. Both areas are great to linger and to lounge. A VCR and small inventory of Videos are there to entertain. A radio/CD player and a compliment of CD's will set the mood. Click on the picture for a larger image.
Custom kitchen cabinetry with a counter of blue tile work encloses a refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and a vented four burner stove and oven. The kitchen is well supplied with all the essentials necessary to easily cook and eat well at home. A telephone is within easy reach.
Multicolored bright tinted plastered walls with arches and custom motifs have ceramic wall sconces highlighting Brazilian red cherry floors in every room. Each bedroom is tastefully well appointed with a queen sized bed, closet, curtains, and linens. Click on the picture for a larger image.
Two bathrooms are colorfully tiled with contrasting pedestal sinks and showers. One bathroom has a tub which is especially useful for a "soak " after a day of hiking or surfing.
Below, on the first floor is the entrance leading into a small foyer with a private entrance leading to a tiled laundry area equipped with a washer and dryer, that is shared with the occupants of Charter Cottage.
An outdoor shower is located conveniently outside the laundry area. There is parking under the structure.
Both Charter Cottage and Charter House are within a short walk or bicycle ride of the nearby town of Hanalei, which lies sandwiched between mountain peaks cascading with distant waterfalls and the emerald shores of Hanalei Bay.
Hanalei is an hour drive from the airport of Lihu'e and is the gateway to the Na Pali Coast.
Activities and amenities within walking distance include: surfing, swimming, snorkeling, beach-combing, bird-watching, pier fishing, river or sea kayaking, bicycling, post office, bank, grocery store, shops, churches, restaurants, and faxes.
Activities within a short drive include: golf, tennis, horseback riding, helicopter rides, hiking, and wind-surfing.
