Carved into a mountain and Perched on a bluff with Stunning 280 degree Beach front Amazing Views. This locations is Unique, one of thr best on the island. With Unspoiled Beauty with a Raw Organic feel to it. Just a few Steps away to a golden Sandy Beach. The reef is Amazing , great for snorkeling, it can only seen from this property. Many locals say that It is the Trump Card of "Moloaa Bay." There is no other place like it . If you like the hustle and Bustle that you have at resorts with lots of people and pools, this is not the place for you. Truely a place of tranquilty and Serenity. Relax and unwind. Lots of fum activities for Family fun.
Many Beachfront properties lack privacy because of being at sea level. Tourist can park there beach gear right in front of your view for the day, taking away the aviance and privacy. The views from the bluff are absolutely stunning, so much more advantageous from higher up, yet and only a few steps to a beautiful white sandy beach. Sometimes monk seals will come in to bask in the sun. Its not uncommon to see a pod of dolphins come in to the bay.
Its a Historical Hawaiian style home that brings you back into that era. Giving you the true feeling of Hawaiian heritage . A charming bungalow with Many updates. The shower has been replaced with a beautiful Green bamboo tile shower. But many guests prefer to use the outdoor shower. New living furniture set with 2 beautiful sofas. Viking stove , updated windows with French doors leading out from the kitchen. The views are amazing right from the Master Beautiful teak canopy bed with French doors leading out to the yard. Outdoor dining Under The lighted Pavilion which features a Gas and kettle BBQ 's for a Great Outdoor dining ce. French doors in the front master suite brings in those beautiful trade winds. A new TV Console, Nice dining room table that seats 6 plur outdoor dining table under covered pavillion. There is a second Pavilion at the end of a spacious lawn area by a fire pit, which is truly a wonderful place to hang out during the day for shade and relaxation. In the evening The whole family will love to roast marshmallows while gazing at the stars. Have a glass of Vino while listening to the waves. Its truly lovely to look at the ocean at night with the few homes on the bay lighting up the shore with little twinkling lights. Its Truly a wonderful place for a family a vacation or a romantic getaway.

Very private. Sitting on a bluff overlooking a quiet bay. Watching whales and dolphins play in the water. Walking the beach and finding monk seals sleeping. Boogie boarding in crystal clear ocean. Snorkeling around the reef.
..... and you can do all that without getting into your car!
Like other reviews have said, it is not a resort. But when you spend all your time outside soaking up the sun and beauty the inside is not so important.
Beds were clean and comfortable. Back bedroom with attached bathroom has screens for windows, felt like you were sleeping outside! Clean bathrooms. Outdoor shower for rinsing the beach off. Big screen TV with comfy couch. Side room with another comfortable couch. Large dining room table. We did not eat meals at the house. Toaster oven for bagels in the morning, packed meat sandwiches and waters for picnic lunch and dinner out. Large fridge to hold waters to drink and freezer to hold waters for icepacks. Cooler provided.
Two pavilions. One just off the dining room with table and chairs. One at the corner of bluff with chairs for relaxing. Boogie boards, swim noodles, beach chairs and blankets, snorkeling gear, sand toys all provided.
Lynette was awesome and quick to respond whenever we had a question. She seemed genuinely happy to host us, treating us more like friends visiting than customers renting.
I was the planner for my brother, husband and daughter. I had it narrowed to a beautiful condo in Princeville or this rustic home on Moa

We got in a little late and had some issues with getting in (locks in the dark for privacy gates). Lynn was completely accessible and talked us through other options. We had a couple of questions during our stay and she was always available to help.
The property location can’t be beat. The beach is very private, the property gives you room to breathe. It’s a little quirky - as other reviews have said, it definitely feels like an authentic old-school home that you get to settle in to. Our family adored being able to grill out, walk to the beach, look for whales, and feel like we could relax. The location was great for exploring the whole island. We hope to come back in the future and stay here again - it’s a hidden gem for people who are not looking for a resort type stay.

Absolutely gorgeous views from the outside gazebos!!! Very private, and felt like a step back in time on the lovely uncrowded beach, with good snorkeling around the reef. Woderful spot for a family vacation.
House is comfortable, though there were issues with the stove during our stay. Host was attentive & is working on improving the property.

The house sits on top of the bluff overlooking the bay. It is quite spectacular. The house is well appointed with body boards, beach chairs and sand toys. The grounds were so well kept with beautiful trees and mature tropical plants. My only complaint really had nothing or little to do with the property management and more with the guest before us. They were late checking out which meant we were late being able to check in. Check in was 4:00 but we got in at 5:30. We were not compensated for the late check in but the host was apologetic about it; explaining it was the people before us were late in leaving. (Fellow travelers please be courteous we had to eat cold take out and we had traveled all day and were looking forward to eating dinner right away).
All in all waking up to the beautiful ocean was spectacular. The house is secluded from other people/neighbors making it an ideal get away.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house sits overlooking incredible views. Just a very short walk to the sand, less than a minute. The house is well equipped and the layout is perfect. We were very comfortable in the beds! The property is beyond beautiful with luscious plants and trees. We had coffee every morning overlooking the beautiful water and low tide mornings. In the morning we saw many sea creatures in the rocks and reef be careful when you walk on the grass that you don’t step on a mollusk because they are good creatures! And be careful when walking on the reef that you don’t step on sea cucumbers and injure them. This is our 6th time to Moloa’a Bay, and we can’t wait to rent this house again. The owner was very nice and communicated well for the little things we had questions on. Wonderful stay!

My wife and I met and fell in love while we were living on Kauai back in 1984 . I used live in the 3 story home on the beach where the Moloaa stream runs into the bay in 1982 until Hurricane Iwa made the house uninhabitable. Mary and I were so excited to find this old Plantation style home perched over the bay with panoramic views of the bay and ocean. The privacy of the gated road up to the home with the 1 minute walk down the driveway to the beach below the home was awesome. This older home made us feel like we went back in time and were once again living back on Kauai.
There was not one touch of “ Fancy Resort” with everything all shiny and new. Just plain old Hawaiian style casual beach house living. So if you want a 5 star resort this home is not for you. You will spend most of your time on the bay edge of the property taking in the waves breaking on the reef. We saw whales going by a 1/2 mile out and a pod of dolphins just outside the bay.
3 sea turtles were feeding below the house on the edge of the reef. The snorkeling in one of small shallow channels of the reef closest to the end of the beach below us was an easy swim and had clear water with fish grazing on the reef. The property is backed by thick steep jungly coastal foliage so you are at the edge of the normal Hawaiian mosquito zone. Keep the house doors closed and have bug repellent handy while barbecuing and sitting outside. No air conditioning but plenty fans. Tropical Moloaa Magic!

Feel so lucky that someone could have a home like this and share it! Amazing location! Truly nothing like it. Our family enjoyed this home every day! Neighbors were super cool and we really felt like we lived here. Will be back for sure!

Our week here was awesome. The property and privacy cannot be beat. The house itself is a clean, older plantation style home with all of the amenities in the kitchen to cook delicious meals. Enjoyed streaming a couple of movies at night too. Beds were comfortable. Great washer and dryer in unit. Our home away from home. If you are desiring resort style accommodations then book at a resort. We loved the privacy of this rental and it had everything we needed. Would book again given the chance. One of the best on the ocean bookings we have ever made! Mahalao.

We loved this place. Sits just above the ocean. Ocean views for days. Just a short 30 sec walk down the driveway to the beach. Pretty much a private beach all to ourselves. Saw turtles, seals and chickens. Lol. Swam with a turtle and an octopus. And of course fish. This island is now my favorite very chill. Loved everything about our trip. Host was great! We plan on coming back in the summer time.
