Neighborhood Displays

Of course this is always a fun holiday experience that you can partake in anywhere, even on the island of Kauai! If you are passing through the town of Kalaheo, there are several holiday displays to get you in the Christmas spirit. This has become a popular social event that people enjoy this time of the year! The neighborhood behind the Old Camphouse Grill features decorations like the Nutcracker house, the Polar Express, and no holiday celebration is complete without Santa! He will be there to hand out special treats to the keiki.

On the East side, the Wailua house lots also feature a Christmas street where all the houses participate in lights and decorations!
