Rental Details
Property Overview
Yea! Our WiFi has just been upgraded, September 2022, in our remodeled, privately owned unit.
Our oceanside condo is located in the only hotel on the island, Hotel Moloka’i, and is within a 2 mile walking distance from Kaunakakai town.
There is no keeping track of keys. After registering at the front desk, you may go directly to our second floor condo and use your code for entry. Early check-in and late check out is normally given knowing your flight schedule.
This renovated studio condo comes with a loft & a spacious covered lanai that overlooks from above the beautifully manicured grounds and walkways. A few feet away is the restaurant/ bar/pool/ocean.
This award winning restaurant, Hiro’s Ohana Grill, has great food and reviews. Dinner by the ocean usually comes with breathtaking sunsets and nightly live music.
The hotel also has laundry facilities, outside restrooms, and a filtered water ice machine for you to utilize. Don’t forget to load up ice with your provided ice bucket and cooler.
What could be finer than an oceanside pool to enhance your relaxing getaway. Enjoy also one of several hammocks near the pool as well as directly outside the condo.
If grilling is something you enjoy doing, we have propane grills that you can sign out.
Our full bath unit includes A/C, ceiling fan, and could comfortably accommodate 5. The main floor has 1 full bed, good for a couple, & a couch, as an added single bed. The loft has two twin beds and is perfect for children because of its low ceiling. Adults would have to bend their heads but could be managed.
Kitchenette has a 2 burner built in stove, a portable 1 burner stove, mini fridge, toaster oven, microwave, instant pot, tea pot & coffee maker.
If you prefer going on a guided tour, or inquiring about the best beaches, or best areas for snorkeling, an activities desk in the lobby of the hotel is there to assist in your planning.
When you put all the wonderful things available to our guests, ie: free parking, Security officer, maintenance, laundry facilities, pool, restaurant, bar, bbq propane grills, activity desk, gift shop, vending machine, unlimited free ice and a cooler, including beach chairs for beach trips, plus bus shuttle to town, there really is no need to find accommodations anywhere else but right here with us.
An upgraded WiFi is a huge plus. The only other places that we know of is in town at either the library or Bob’s Burger.
We have an absolute amazing house keeper that is a stickler for sanitizing and disinfecting the condo. She has always done it, even before Covid hit. “There’s clorox wipes on the counter next to the stove. I take my disinfectant with me when I clean. I use gloves to clean. I sanitize all surfaces including furniture, door knobs, door trims, lamp, light switches, tv & ac control, and all appliances plus the floor. Refrigerator is also wiped along with the other small
appliances. All beddings are laundered after each rental.”
And maybe best of all, with today’s hectic schedules, and/or change of plans, we’ll refund the full amount if you cancel before two weeks from your first night’s stay in our condo. If it’s a covid issue, further refund is possible.
We want your stay to be filled with aloha, relaxation and comfort as you enjoy our beautiful “friendly isle” and it’s people.
Mahalo nui, Martha and Walter

Moloka’i is an amazing place to rest and unwind. The hosts were easy to work with and the apartment was clean enough except for the two large cockroaches we killed during our stay. There was a musty smell to the place when we first walked in, I’m guessing that’s from the humid climate. The screen door was off its track and didn’t work so we weren’t able to leave the sliding door to the lanai open to enjoy the beautiful weather or air out the space. We picked up some plumerias from the local plumeria farm and placed them in a bowl with some water, which made the room more pleasant. There were also some holes in the screens on the windows which allowed the mosquitos in, so we came home with half a dozen mosquito bites each!! Also, we found out when we arrived that the restaurant at the hotel was closed. This was troubling since we arrived on Christmas Day and everything was closed. I believe the restaurant will be reopening in the near future, but there wasn’t an exact date for that. Luckily, the next day we were able to go to the store and pick up some provisions. The cookware and dishes were very nice and well maintained and there is a coffee maker as well as a hot water kettle! Both great amenities! If you’re looking to go to the beach, you may want to consider a place closer to the west side or further east on the south side of the island. The beach around Kaunakakai has a lot of erosion so not the nicest for laying out or enjoying a swim. Pool is nice though!
Walter was fantastic - very communicative early on and gave me peace of mind heading into our trip that everything was in order. The hotel staff was also very nice. Currently the pool, restaurant and gift store are closed for renovations which was a bummer but not a huge deal. There were plenty of towels in the hotel which was very nice and the AC worked great (which is hard to find on the island). My only complaint is that the bathroom and overhead fans were not cleaned very well and had some dirt and dust on them, and the bathroom sink water consistently came out brown, so I bought bottled water to use instead. That being said given the lowkey laid back nature of the island, this was by far a great option to stay at and I would recommend!
Host was wonderful, property was beautiful and well maintained, very comfortable, everything we needed
The host provided so much helpful information. The unit was nicely located central on the island for easy convenience. It was comfortable enough, but after so much written about sanitary upkeep, I was surprised by the dirtiness. As a former professional str cleaner, I do have a keen eye. But that didn't stop us from having the best little weekend getaway. The unit could use a maintenance crew to replace the broken louvers, and the tv has a very blurry screen, but we barely watched since we were busy enjoying the island. The restaurant was closed and i guess has been for a while. All hotel staff were amazing. Molokai mo beta for sure
We really enjoy our place, the grounds were spotless and the hammocks were nice touch. We did pick this place because it said they have a Bar/Restaurant/Live music on the premises, which were closed. Not a big deal, we had a kitchenette. We would definitely stay there again..
Property was great, the only thing was that the water from the bathroom vanity was tinged brownish and the floors were a bit dusty. But other than that it was comfortable, quiet and relaxing and felt like home away from home!! Thank you very much!
Pretty little place
Best place on Molokai to stay
Clean, tastefully furnished, efficient apartment in a great location with a good restaurant onsite. Easy, outstanding communications with our host. Outstanding in every way.
Nice little place enjoyed our stay. The host was super easy to communicate with.
We very much enjoyed our stay in the condo. Pre-visit communication with Walter and Martha was great; checkin went super-smoothly; the unit itself was wonderful; the whole Hotel Molokai campus is lovely; the location is perfect for access to the the North and the East and the West ends of the island. We look forward to our next stay.
It was a good Place to be. The Moskitonet had holes. The Restaurant wasnt realy good
Property exceptionally clean and comfortable. Great wifi as my cell reception was spotty there. Location is close to town, and quiet at night.
The property was located close to town, which was super convenient. There was a restaurant on property that had dinner and live music which was great. There is an activities desk that helped us book some excursions, very helpful.
Well run with best restaurant/bar on island.
Walter was a great host, getting us in early so we could get on with our day without lugging around all our gear. We were on island to do work in conservation, and having a quiet, comfy, and clean place to return to at the end of the day was wonderful. Highly recommended for work trips, or just a great spot to get away. Molokai is the best, and Walter's place is perfectly situated to enjoy the island.
Stayed at this A frame for 2 nights and it was the most peaceful, cozy, and comfortable stay in a warm climate that we ever had. The place was clean with everything that you might need for a vacation. It was so quiet and peaceful, except for the roosters. This is the place to get away from city life. The hosts were so prompt and informative. I will definetely stay there again when I am on island.
Everything went GREAT from checking in to checking out.Walter was VERY responsive to all our questions and concerns. We have family on island and it always a treat to come back to a room that was nice,clean and comfy. We will definitely rent this room again. Thank You
Everything was very fine except for the loft beds. At our age, the first floor bed was too small and getting to the loft beds was tricky (had to climb a ladder to a low ceiling bedroom. Other than that surprise, all was great.
This property had a traditional Polynesian look to it . We had plenty of room in our suite. The resort staff was super friendly. The grounds were nice. The outdoor activities company (Molokai outdoor activities) was top notch. This was a wonderful stay on a beautiful island
The residence was what we wanted. The owner was incredibly helpful and there was no problems or surprises with the unit. We would stay there again the next time we come to Molokai. Thank you Walter for a very comfortable place to stay and visit this beautiful island.
An overall excellent place to stay. While the accommodations could use an upgrade, everything we used was totally acceptable. The bed was comfortable and the Lanai was fantastic for late afternoon breezes. Walter was quick to respond when we had a small problem and very easy to work with.
Nice, clean and comfortable
Nice clean room at the hotel Molokai
the unit is within hotel molokai so you get the best of both worlds with hotel molokais amenities (pool, bar, restaurant, parking). the unit is well furnished and walter is really responsive and clear with communication. highly recommend!
Nice cozy unit on Molokai Hotel property. Unit was as described and was funished well. It was as nice place as expected. Hosts were very responsive, welcoming, and easy to communicate with. Thanks for opening up your place in Molokai hotel for others to enjoy!
Awesome condo. When we go back again, definitely staying there again.
We really enjoyed our self at your condo it was such a great experience and I will return when I come back to visit Molokai.
We had a great relaxing stay. The rental was in a great location. The lanai was a wonderful place to sit, drink coffee, read, and soak in the sounds of the local birds. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was stocked well. We had plenty of bath and beach towels. Having a cooler and lawn chairs was a huge plus. Visiting molokai was wonderful. We enjoyed the variety the island had to offer from private beaches to the forest with waterfalls. We were able to unplug and slow down! I highly recommend visiting and this VRBO is in a great place!
Quiet hotel. Room included amenities we were looking for during our short family visit.
Great location! Walter is very helpful
We had the most relaxing vacation in years staying at the Hotel Molokai. It served our needs perfectly from being able to prepare our own meals to having a wonderful bar and restaurant on property for when we wanted to be more pampered. The pool was wonderful and the nightly entertainment was great. The only reason I submitted a four star overall rating instead of five was because we felt it odd that there was no shampoo provided. We purchased our own at a local market. We don’t travel with our own shampoo because of the airlines restrictions of no liquids over 3.5 ounces. That being said, it certainly didn’t affect our amazing stay and wonderful time on this beautiful island. Mahalo.
It was a really convenient location. Close to town and close to the festivities we were attending.
Condo was clean and well-stocked with all necessities. Communication with owner was superior. Atmosphere could not be beat.
12th trip to the islands, but first to Molokai. Very nice property.
Exactly as described, super cute space that had everything we needed . Beach chairs , a cooler and beach towels included . The bed is a double which was tight for us but we made do . There are two other beds upstairs but we didn’t trust ourselves on the ladder in the night ! There is an amazing restaurant on sight as well as a bar and pool . A bonus was the little store onsite that we rented a beach umbrella for the day for 5 dollars . The grounds are gorgeous and well maintained. The info book left by the owner was full of helpful information. We rented a car for the week which allowed us to explore this beautiful island . Wonderful vacation!
From the moment we began our booking process, then shuttle from the airport to Hotel Molokai, to service at the hotel bar, restaurant, friendliness in town, to departure - was a truly superior experience! Mahalo Nui Loa to Walter and Martha for all your information and kindness! We loved your hale and will definitely be back. With Aloha, Deb and JaNeen!
Did not understand it was on the second floor. Hard for old people with heavy luggage. Much smaller than anticipated. No body wash or shampoo. First vrbo without those items. No sheets on the bed.
Great stay, nice spacious condo on Molokai. Condo is set up very well (except soap and shampoo ;-) ). Onsite restaurant very good. Sketchy WiFi, but that’s ok, you’re on Molokai. I would stay at this location again.
We're so glad we found this accommodation on Moloka'i! Everything was as described and the location was perfect--near to town and easy to drive to all other parts of the island. The owner, Walter, provided complete info and extra tips. I recommend it!
