About this property
Makahuena Estates is a brand-new exclusive gated enclave of just 10 private residences, perfectly positioned above Kauai's dramatic South Shore coastline with panoramic ocean views, coastal walking paths, and direct access to the Mahaulepu Heritage Trail and nearby Shipwreck Beach.
Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, Hale Makau is a spectacular five-bedroom retreat, centered around an expansive great room with soaring open-beam ceilings and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that open to an incredible outdoor living space. Whether you're gathering with family, celebrating with friends, or simply soaking in the views, every space was designed to make the most of Kauai's year-round sunshine.
The chef's kitchen features premium appliances, a waterfall-edge island with bar seating, and everything needed to prepare memorable meals. Outside, you'll find an ocean view covered lanai with comfortable seating, alfresco dining, a propane fire pit, and an infinity-edge pool complete with a spa and Baja shelf perfect for lounging in the Poipu sun.
Five beautifully appointed bedroom suites provide luxurious comfort and privacy for every guest. Each features spa-inspired bathrooms, large smart TVs, and private lanai access to enjoy the ocean breeze. The dedicated bunk room offers a fun retreat for children or additional guests, while the primary suite elevates the experience with sweeping ocean views, a soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in shower.
Guests also enjoy access to Makahuena Estates' private amenity center, featuring a fitness studio, putting green, showers, luggage storage, and comfortable lounge spaces—ideal for early arrivals, late departures, or fitting in one last workout before your flight home.
From sunrise coffee overlooking the Pacific to evenings spent around the fire pit under the stars, this is the kind of home where unforgettable Kauai memories come naturally.
