Bob and Kathy Offley came to the islands over 40 years ago and immediately fell in love with Kaua’i. They decided to start a Bed & Breakfast to offer visitors to the island the magical experience of their paradise home. In 1991 they opened one unit and soon found that it was so popular they had to add two more. Bob’s many years of experience as a finish carpenter came in handy in the design and construction of the beautiful woodwork in the Bed & Breakfasts units.
Bob passed away in Sept of 2007 but lives on through his many construction projects completed on the property and Kathy carries on the tradition and rare privilege of sharing the Kauai they came to know and love.
A true kama’aina, Kathy has come to know the many secret spots that will make your stay a unique experience and she would be happy to suggest and book day-trips, helicopter tours, luaus, boat tours, places to eat, and many other Kaua’i activities.
In addition to her inn keeping duties, Kathy always finds time to spend time with her tropical flowers. You can be sure that for a few hours every day she’ll be busy working with the many exotic varieties of flowers in her three-acre garden. It’s a passion that’s contagious! Ask Kathy about sending some of the exotic flowers to those who couldn’t be with you on the Garden Island.
Kakalina’s is truly a reflection of Kathy’s love of the island and joy in sharing the hospitality of her Bed & Breakfast.
