Rental Details

Property Overview

Pali Nui is a gorgeous luxury villa in Kukui'ula's exclusive Kula Makai neighborhood on Kauai's South Shore. This 6-bedroom estate blends tropical elegance with resort-level amenities, offering panoramic views of the ocean, golf course, and mountains. With a lagoon-style pool, swim-up bar, volcano spa hot tub, and garden-view rainforest showers, Pali Nui is ideal for families or groups seeking space, style, and privacy. Completed in 2024 and sleeping up to 14 guests, it's both a design masterpiece and a private paradise just minutes from world-famous beaches and attractions.

Jaw-dropping, breathtaking, spectacular: sometimes even the highest superlatives can seem like low-key understatement. Pali Nui—this uniquely gorgeous new Kukui'ula villa—is distinctively designed and stylishly curated, with artful décor, tropical allure, and delightful diversions at every turn. Whether it’s dazzling by daylight or radiantly aglow at night, Pali Nui’s sprawling, estate-like layout showcases the vivid, expansive views of ocean, mountains, golf course, and sunsets. Inside and out, this dramatic wood-and-glass masterpiece offers the luxurious amenities of a 5-star resort along with the casual comfort—and total privacy—of home. Six cool, inviting bedrooms (beguilingly named Hula, Kona, Lava, Puka, Coral, and Nani) adjoin glamorous en-suite baths, 4 of which boast their own walled gardens with rainforest showers. In the soaring, open-plan living space, an elegantly furnished great room segues into a congenial dining area and state-of-the-art kitchen, all with epic ocean views. Immediately adjacent, the capacious covered lanai overlooks a truly show stopping swimming pool: a sinuous, sparkling turquoise lagoon that flows around a festive “volcano spa” hot tub, a picturesque Pai Pai pavilion with TV and swim-up bar, and refreshing in-pool chaises. Pali Nui’s location is divine, as well; the pastoral Kula Makai neighborhood feels like verdant countryside, with scenic trails just steps away, yet it’s only minutes from the famous beaches, enticing recreations, and glittering attractions of the South Shore!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house rental is a mini resort.Everything screams Hawaiian elegance. Our family of 13 ages 6mo-45yo had an absolute amazing time here, we all enjoyed cooking, watching TV and even doing dishes in the main house and when we were ready for bed... we all had our own mini suites, we were not expecting that but we're thrilled to see. The pool and hot tub are top notch, the fire pit was a delight to sit by and watch the sky for shooting starts at night. I would book the rental again and again, not a bad thing to say about it. And the shopping less then 10 minutes away either direction were awesome little gems!

Pool needs to be cleaned more frequently. Several issues with enough hot water for showers in this size home.

Property is simply stunning! Pool was a “show stopper” for our family . . . we spent most of our family time around the pool. Would absolutely book this property again.

Our family of 10 (ages 3 years to 75 years) truly enjoyed our stay at Pali Nui. The common areas were fantastic, and everyone had a private respite to retreat to when desired. The outdoor amenities were constantly being enjoyed. Outside of construction vehicles passing by, the neighborhood is extremely quiet and private. Its location is close enough to Koloa, Poipu and Kukui'ula to afford quick, convenient access to shopping, restaurants and the beach. A definite winner!

And the concierge staff were SO nice and helpful. Spend the money to stay here--it's worth it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pali Nui is a fantastic rental property. We had a group of 10 family members staying and it was perfect for everyone. The living areas were large and open with expansive views out to sea. We used the kitchen extensively and it was well appointed and easy to cook in. The BBQ is great by the way. I would not hesitate to rent this property for my family again.

The property is a mini resort! The rooms were spacious and perfect for our group of 10. The central area was ideal for pool time, reading, games' and hanging out. One of the highlights was the dinner prepared by Chef Cameron and Daniel. Such a fun experience and the food was amazing. We will definitely return!

This home is perfect for large groups that enjoy spending time with each other, but like their own privacy as each suite felt like a hotel room. It was wonderful to have a large range of kitchen equipment for cooking as well.

Extremely relaxing and allowed privacy for everyone. Perfect for our family. We spent quite a bit of time outside. Kitchen was well equipped and comfortable. Felt very secure in such a lovely location. Private but close to the beach.

Beautiful setting and a very nice layout. It took a couple days to learn where everything was located and how to operate some of the appliances. Kitchen could use a few more utensils. Windows could be cleaned and door into kitchen definitely needs an adjustment. Overall I would recommend this property for a family gathering.

Beautiful house only 15 minutes from Poipu.

Staying at this beautiful property was like staying at a 5 star resort exclusively with our friends and family. Each en suite bedroom was very private, most with outdoor showers, all with beautiful decor and attention to detail. The common areas were stunning from the kitchen/great room to the resort like pool/bar area complete with an outdoor television. When we had minor issues, they were addressed immediately. Would definitely recommend for your next group or family trip.
