Beautiful high-end home with views directly to the ocean below. Have your own private retreat within a secure, gated community in an expansive open home. Stay in perhaps one of the most unique homes in Hawaii where it rains into the house, filling the entry waterway. Walk under the copper rainfall screen, across the pond with seemingly floating carved rock steps. This home is all about celebrating the Hawaiian outdoors/indoors lifestyle. The living room and master bedrooms feature huge sliders opening up to the pool and hot tub area and astounding views of the ocean. Water features surround the home with waterfalls cascading into multiple coy ponds. Water is the reason you come to Hawaii, and the main reason to rent this home. You'll be surrounded by water from the moment you enter the home, from the entry pond, to the indoor rainfall feature, to the coy ponds, to pool and hot tub. The sounds of water envelop the home: the rain falls into the entry water feature, the waterfalls by the dining room aerate the multiple coy ponds, and the lava rock hot tub pours into the pool directly below it.
Like many Hawaiian homes, this unit does not have air conditioning (with the exception of the Ohana). Most every window in the home is screened and opens up to let in the fresh breezes. All rooms have fans, and you can cool off in the pool any time. This home is about being outdoors when you are indoors. Open up the windows, turn on the water features, and enjoy the sounds and feel of nature while gazing across the pool to the ocean. You'll probably spend more time on the expansive covered lanai than anywhere else. Brand new high-end patio furniture, a stainless steel grill, an outdoor section couch, misters, and the pool and hot, make this the place to be. *The home has recently been upgraded to have air conditioning! Due to the high electricity costs in Hawaii, a fee will automatically be added to your stay for Air Conditioning. Please keep all windows closed while the AC is on.*
The study is detached from the main home and provides a nice secluded area for members of your party that want more privacy. Attached to the garage, the study is a great place to go cool off under the air conditioning, read a book, or watch some TV. Offering 2 twin beds, it's a great location for members of your group that are on a different schedule as they can come and go without disturbing the group in the main house. There is no bathroom in the study, so guests will need to use one of the 3.5 bathrooms in the main house.
In order to protect you and the property we have partnered with Safely, a 3rd party screening and property insurance company. This screening is very quick and simply verifies your ID and checks against criminal and internal databases. It provides peace of mind should any small damage occur during your stay, and helps to eliminate credit card fraud. You should receive an email from Safely shortly after booking (please check your SPAM or junk mail). Please follow the included instructions to complete the process and verify your reservation. Special monthly rates for Safely Insurance and Screening are available for longer stays and may be added on to stays over 30 nights after booking. Please contact Moab Lodging Vacation Rentals with any questions.
While we love children, this home's unique water features aren't conducive to small kids. There are multiple water features, some indoors, that are not childproof. There are doors...

Everyone in our group myself included had a great time.
The setting is idyllic.The grounds of the property are beautiful, and the view is stunning.
There are a few things worth mentioning
1-some guests may be put off by the “property rule book” an example is the noise rules
I understand that you’re in a neighborhood and you certainly don’t want to disturb the neighbors but going to the extent of threatening fines and eviction is over the top. The management has gone as far as disabling the stereo.
2-The air conditioning is an issue
They charge for its use lol ! I found this offensive given the five star daily rate.
We didn’t touch the AC but two units were on upon our arrival and leaking water through the ceiling and onto the floor. Management was notified and the problem was resolved.
3-The property advertises the pool and spa. Unfortunately the remote control to heat the system was missing. Speaking of remote controls, many that control the tv’s had no batteries that we ended up replacing
4-The house had no wine glasses, no corkscrew, no decent kitchen knives, and no steak knives
5-several lights were burned out including motion lights over exterior stair’s which is a safety issue
6-two bedroom closet doors were off their tracks
7-one of the bedroom showers had no bracket for the hand spray, so it just had to lay on the shower floor
8-two of the bathrooms had bug issues especially in the mornings-tiny gnats
Lots of little frustrations that add up

Besides the security guy interrogating and scanning IDs. Entering property was nice.
House set up is super cool. I’m a local so I definitely appreciated the views. The rule book!!!! Is something that is good to shared with the renters. To keep the noise to a minimum. But if that stuff is really true. This house is absolutely a no go. Pool was awesome. Pool guy was super helpful. How was nice. And I left it in good shape

I will say my family and I LOVED this house with the amazing water features, view and pool. We spent a lot of time outside. The house was clean.
My husband was quite disappointed there was no coffee. With all the rules and energy in this house, we felt VERY unwelcome and unwanted in this space- we've never felt this way at any rental before.
I made sure to get confirmation that the hot tub was indeed working before I booked and was assured it was. Yet when we arrived the heater would not cycle on. My partner had to manually turn on the heater for it to work. I reached out to the property managers who were very short and acted like I didn't know how to press a button. So, unless you know how to manually do this, plan on not having a "hot" tub you will be charged extra for.
Keep in mind the thermostats are kept at over 90 degrees unless you want to pay-extra for AC during your stay. One of the bedrooms did not have a working fan and the pm didn't seem to care when I mentioned it, yet we did get AC in that room, so maybe something was done about it.
The detached room off the garage smelled of mold and mildew and does not have a bathroom. I did not feel it was safe for anyone to sleep there.
I wanted to give this place raving reviews, yet I just can't due to the noted issues. We did love the actual house!

Family and I stayed at the waterfall house in July 2023. We chose the property as the pics were beautiful and the reviews were great. I will admit that the property has a spectacular view, however we encountered some significant issues that would deter us from renting here again. On the 2nd day of our stay, we discovered that the remote control for the jacuzzi was malfunctioning. We reached out to the property manager, and he promptly came over to troubleshoot. The issue was beyond his ability to resolve. This led to a visit by the pool technician, and we were told that there was a significant electrical issue that would not be fixed before our visit was over. It was also implied that the jacuzzi had been having issues for a while, but the property continued to be advertised despite it not being fixed. Though we were reimbursed for the "spa fee", it was disappointing that we weren't able to use that amenity. The older people in my family were not interested in swimming in the cold pool. We never got down to exactly what it was (gecko?) but something was living in the rafters of the living room. It was leaving droppings on the table and the couch in the living room, making that space unusable. We also had a VERY large spider (palm size) we had to kill. There were dead bugs found in all of the rooms. Very few of the doors locked, and someone came unto the property unannounced. I would reach out to management before renting. So many rules to abide by, but respect goes both ways.

This home had beautiful views and it was great to be outside. We had a wonderful time with our family and appreciated the great room and indoor/outdoor feeling.
With the investment made to stay here, there were some opportunities, esp with the book outlining how many fees we’d incur for our actions (leaving someone by accident in the fridge had a $100+ fee). I suppose they have had complaints or parties there before bc the book was intense, but we didn’t have any issues following the rules. Some opportunities for the property management include more consistent cleaning (some rooms/bathrooms were cleaner than others, checking all electronics/features of the home (the heater did not consistently work for the pool or hot tub), the washer leaked water on the floor with each load, and updating the book (there is no recycling trash can outside).
Given the investment, we expect excellence and though the experience in total was more positive/favorable than not, the items listed above are why we would not stay at this property again bc at a certain price, these things should be right.

1st, the guard/ check in lady upfront is not pleasant. Instead of a welcome, we got interrogated about who was staying there, who we were expecting with regard to friends or visitors. Even after we made it very clear that it would just be us, then she went on interrogating us about if we were gonna have a party. As if we could; they don't give you access to the sound system so that you won't make too much noise.
If that wasn't enough, apparently the people who stayed there before us said they left their suitcase there, so while we were trying to have dinner, they insisted that they were going to come on property and check for themselves, even though I told them I already checked. I also let them know that I was inappropriate (in a nighty after a long day of travel), but they didn't care. They said the people tracked their bag to the house.
Well that brings me to my next part. The 4th bedroom is outside, separate from the house. Since they were going to come with no regard for us, I asked them to help us fix the issues while they were there. As it turned out, the suitcase was in the outside room, which we hadn't entered or even realize was there. The guy came and got it, unannounced, and left. Apparently, he came in the house where we were, and we didn't even see him!!!!!! He didn't come over to try to help us at all either. We were waiting and waiting, all while trying to have dinner. The only reason we found out that he came was because we called to ask where he was.
Several lights didn't work, and we never could get them to help us get the tv going. We also tried calling about the hot tub that we couldn't get to warm up. They just said, "did you read the book?" Yes, we did, but it just wasn't working.
The coming over unannounced is unacceptable because if you have any blinds up you can see everything, including in the master bedroom and bathroom. If that's not bad enough, they also have video cameras in the house!! When our kids saw that, they were completely freaked out and were afraid to sleep in their own rooms, and they're 12 and almost 15!!
Lastly, they had a used old candle in the candle holder on the patio so we had to go buy one, and every dish we used, we had to wash because they were dirty. Yuk!
This place has a nice view and many people asked me for the information on it after posting on my social media, but I told them I wouldn't recommend it due to all the problems. Had I known all of this, I wouldn't have picked it!

House has gorgeous west facing ocean views, amazing at sunset but beautiful all day long. Outdoor area comfortable and spacious - we loved pool and spa and hung out there a lot. Didn’t use interior living/dining much. Kitchen well equipped. It was all great.

We stayed here for a honeymoon and the house itself, the views, and the upkeep were phenomenal! In addition the location was really nice and quiet which we appreciated. We highly recommend renting this property! Be prepared there is no flexibility at all on check-in or checkout time.
