Kapaa Sands sits on a beachfront property in Kapaa, with residences that are as close as 40 yards from the ocean.
Out of the eight buildings, four exclusively hold two two-story townhomes, while the other four buildings have four studios in them, two on each floor. The studio and two bedroom condos’ interiors measure from 364 to 728 Sq Ft with one or two lanais exterior. In the townhomes both bedrooms are on the second level, with a lanai off of the master bedroom.
Each residence has one unassigned, uncovered parking space to use. Ceiling fans are in the living areas and, in the case of the townhomes, the bedrooms. A coin laundry facility is on-site for both residents and guests. Every building is a walk-up so there are no elevators in the complex.
Many of the homes have wide-angled partial ocean views, the thick greenery on the property bringing at least some down from completely unobstructed status.
Amenities & Things To Do The secluded beach in front of your home is
Lae Nani Beach. This part of the coastline is not easy to access from outside, so there are rarely many others here. It can feel like your own private beach at times. Although wading near the shore can be done sometimes, the active swells and rocky bed mean that this is not a swimmers’ beach. If you go to the north end of Lae Nani, though, you’ll find a tidepool enclosed by rocks that you can swim in anytime. It’s calm in there and you have the same views out across the ocean as you would outside of it.
When you need something different, you live right on the route of the
Ke Ala Hele Makalae pathway, which extends for 8.5 miles up and down this coast. Its paved path can take you south to
Wailua Beach or
Lydgate Beach Park, where there are two more enclosed ocean pools and a huge playground for the kids. Or take it north to
Waipouli Beach and
Kapaa Beach Park that offer miles of beach and places to get in the water.
