Bali Hai
Dream House
Casual Elegance on Tunnels Beach
|
It's hard to imagine a
more idyllic setting for a beachfront vacation
house. The pristinely beautiful bay of Makua
(Tunnels) Beach, with its soft golden sand and warm,
clear water, has been called “the perfect meeting of
mountain and ocean.” The house is graced with
breathtaking views of both. Rising dramatically
above the ocean is Kauai's signature peak, Mt.
Makana, made famous as Bali Hai in “South Pacific”
and also featured in “The Thornbirds.” The setting
is magical, the house is a dream. In fact it has
become known as the Bali Hai Dream House.
Makua is truly a premier beach on an island of
premier beaches. A natural coral barrier reef
protects the shore from big surf most of the year;
it is a snorkeler's paradise. Divers can explore
underwater tunnels and caves formed eons ago by lava
tubes. Just around the bend, a favorite windsurfing
beach brings flashes of colorful sails gliding and
dipping over the water. Beachgoers are sometimes
entertained by passing whales and dolphins; monk
seals “haul out” and rest on the sand. Sunsets here
are dreamy and irresistably photogenic.
Captivating sunsets (and ageless sea turtles) can
also be found minutes away, where the road ends at
Ke‘e Beach. Here is the gateway to the legendary Na
Pali Coast, with its towering cliffs and
incomparable hiking trails. Beautiful Limahuli
Gardens, a world-renowned National Botanical Garden,
offers remnants of early Hawaiian terracing, rare
foliage, and a heart-stopping ocean view.
The nearest town is charming and historic Hanalei, a
15-minute drive. Along the way, there are one-lane
bridges, enticing beaches, and (if you're lucky)
misty waterfalls cascading down green mountainsides.
Whether you're unwinding at the Dream House or
exploring the island, enchantment is everywhere.

The
interior of the Bali Hai Dream
House has dramatic ocean and mountain views,
bringing the exquisite tropical location inside.
The house itself is both elegant and warmly
welcoming, with a spacious, light-filled
ambience...thanks to timberframe construction and
open-beam ceilings. Furnished with comfortable
couches, pine pieces, tropical rattan and a few
Hawaiiana antiques, the Dream House quickly feels
like a second home. There’s cozy seating around the
large fireplace. An oversized pine trestle table is
another favorite gathering place for dining,
crossword puzzles or games.
Spectacular beach, mountain and sunset views from
the lanai makes it a photographer’s dream. This
large deck has a picnic table as well as chaises.
It’s the ideal spot for an al fresco breakfast or
lunch.
The spacious kitchen can accommodate everything from
pancakes on the griddle to elegantly catered
dinners. It features two sinks, a SubZero
refrigerator/freezer, a Viking range, granite
countertops, a charming window seat, and a walk-in
pantry.
“I thought it was a
mural!” People are dazzled by photos of the
master bedroom, with its picture-perfect view of the
beach and Mt. Makana. The room has a king-sized
sleigh bed and an antique armoire. There's a walk-in
closet, and a private bathroom with granite
countertops and a vintage-look free-standing tub.
Two more generous bedrooms and baths are upstairs,
and another bedroom is at beach level. All have
queen beds and ample closet space.
The popular media room has comfortable seating, a
bookshelf wall, a wide window seat and a
large-screen built-in TV. The house is cooled the
Hawaiian way — with soft sea breezes and ceiling
fans.
Film and TV stars, musicians, writers and world
travelers have raved about their weeks at the Bali
Hai Dream House.
Wish you were here?
Maybe it’s the perfect time to make some
magical Hawaiian memories of your own.
