Pu'u O Hoku Ranch offers a unique getaway for travelers seeking a rustic retreat. You can hike, swim, stargaze, surf, and see a working ranch in action. Pu'u O Hoku is one of the few places in the islands where you can feel Hawaii as it once was. The Sunrise cottage is just a short drive from the black-sand beaches of Halawa Valley.
On the hill above the bustle of the ranch, surrounded by tropical gardens, with panoramic windows offering views over the bluffs to the ocean, the Sunrise Cottage is perfect for romantic getaways or small groups. Master bedroom with a queen bed, second bedroom with two twins, spacious living and dining room, fully-equipped kitchen, two bathrooms, and a shaded lanai.
The Sunrise cottage was built in the 1930s in a classic Hawaiian ranch style, furnished with Balinese and Hawaiian wood and textiles. The cottage is off the grid and runs on renewable energy, the water onsite is from our well.
We can also deliver fresh biodynamic and organic produce as well as fresh beef and venison to your cottage for you to cook during your stay!

My son and I really loved staying at the sunrise cottage. We felt like we had the ranch to ourselves! The fresh food provided was amazing and the cottage had everything we needed. We’ll be recommending it to our friends and family and would love to return.

The sunrise cabin was everything we wanted when we disconnected from work. Everything from the location, beautiful scenery, comfy bed, great meat and produce from the host … we could have asked for a more perfect vacation. 10/10 would stay here again!

My family had been looking forward to this trip for over a year, and I was prepared for something much more rustic but the cottage was wonderfully modern with recently renovated bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, and even super-fast WiFi. Even when it was raining hard outside, we felt safe and cozy indoors and it was nice to have almost the whole property to ourselves since no one was in the lodge at the time. Nani was so sweet and wonderful and I was glad we got to meet her in person.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at the sunrise cottage. We appreciated our host stocking the kitchen with fresh fruit, veggies, eggs and meat from the ranch as our flight got in late and we didn’t have time to grocery shop. We enjoyed a hike right from the cottage up into the hills.

We loved everything about our stay. Nani was super helpful, ensuring everything was nothing less than perfect. It really was like stepping back in time. The cottage is beautiful and comfortable, the ranch grounds gorgeous and mystical, the produce and meat from the ranch store fresh and delicious. One of those trips that stays with you, a memory in which the mind can wander and take refuge.

Rising early at the Sunrise House, I was gifted with an amazing greeting from a Hawaiian Pueo (Owl) that flew up from the canyon below, back lit by the rising sun, and then flew over the house. There is something magical about this place - the gentle breeze that flows through the house, the quiet, the distant horizon, and of course, the stars at night.

My partner and I were absolutely enchanted by the sunrise cottage, the ranch and the entire island. The cottage itself is roomy, well cared for, clean and full of beautiful character -- not to mention it's a one-of-a-kind abode on a magical tropical hilltop! We felt very much at home there. Nani and the ranch team were so wonderful, and we want to give Nani and Zoe special shout outs for helping us with horseback and beach adventures. We really felt so lucky to find this place and to spend time there. A true gem which feels harder and harder to find. Thank you so much, Nani and team! <3

We had an incredible week at Pu’u O Hoku Ranch. Nani and the entire ranch team were incredibly communicative both before and during our stay, and suggested so many wonderful activities both on and off the ranch property. The cottage was amazing, with beautiful view overlooking the green hills of the ranch and glimpses of the sea. The day bed with huge picture frame windows was perfect for afternoon naps. We did all the suggested hikes and made a point to watch the sunrise every morning. We hope to visit again soon.

Was on a mom daughter trip and went to a yoga retreat at the lodge. It was lovely to stay at the Sunrise Cottage and live simply for five nights. Best to buy your groceries in the small town by the airport as there is not much out there. There can be mosquitoes so bring bug spray. Beds were comfortable and great water pressure! I brought some more light to do and laundry as there are no laundry facilities on site. Would definitely stay there again on the island.

The cottage at the ranch is a lovely and quiet getaway on the east side of Molokai. It has beautiful views of the hillsides and huge windows to feel immersed in the natural beauty of the island. The kitchen, bathroom and cottage itself are well stocked and comfortable for all you need. Grab some groceries in town, hike the ranch, take a horseback ride and enjoy!
