Island Estate Guesthouses

Completed 2003

Kauai, HI

The theme of this 170-acre ocean front ranch is old Hawaiian plantation style. In addition to the 18,000 square-foot house, two 4000 square-foot guest cottages, a yoga house, a ranch manager's house and a work building were located, designed and built to complement the natural beauty of this ocean valley.

The guest cottages were built first, sited between kamani trees, and separated in height for privacy. Golf cart pathways, private entries and spacious interior areas with deep, covered lanais incorporate traditional Hawaiian imagery. The yoga house, sited to maximize views of the waterfall, the workshop and the caretaker's house, followed sequentially.
