DREAMY BEACH, STUNNING VIEWS, AMAZING LOCATION! TVR 1328

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. 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 cqqFrench doors in the front master suite brings in those beautiful trade winds. A new TV Console, Nice dining room table that seats 6 plus 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.

Fantastic Ocean View
The location is great. Quick walk down to a sandy beach. Water is clear and great swimming. We were lucky to be there during whale season and could watch them from sitting in the yard. We had a group of 7 adults and the property provided lots of room for everyone to sleep and enjoy time together both inside and outside.

Beautiful view
Our family of 4 adults and 2 children had a wonderful stay. We were able to check in early to enjoy a sunny day at the beach which was a short walk down the driveway with cart already packed with beach chairs, cooler, and towels. The house had everything we needed to stay in and cook so we could spend more time watching whales from the gazebo. The host was very helpful. We would definitely rent this house again.

Bug infested
Issue number one: Bugs! Arrived found cockroaches and contacted owner about the bugs and being in the jungle were not surprised. Owner said they treated the home and bugs will be dying off. Bug sightings only increase during our stay, crawling on my brothers backs while sleeping, getting onto food in kitchen, falling from ceiling onto dinner plates and we had enough. Were able to contact VRBO and get reimbursed and leave the rental. Owners of the rental only reached out a day after we had left to ask what they could do to make our stay more comfortable. Issue number 2: Poor upkeep. Drawers broken, Toilet broken, 8 people had to use just one toilet. Freezer did not keep things cold. Overall there are better places to stay as we found once we moved to another rental. Maybe they address the issues but not worth the risk as they did not alert us to the toilet or bugs prior to arrival and clearly did not care about the comfort of their guests stay.

A Hawaiian Gem.
I stayed here with 4 other 40 year-adult college friends. My friends were new to the island, I was the tour guide. I’ve been to Kauai 20 times and have never been to Moloaa Beach because it is sooo private. This hands down is my favorite beach on Kauai. And this is the best house property on the bay. This is a real plantation style home with history. The owner is planning a remodel that would put this property way out of reach for the normal vacationer. Book now!! There are four private gates you must through to get to the beach and then this stunning property overlooking the crystal clear snorkeling and swimming bay. Huge private property with two gazebos we hung 5 hammocks from. (Bring hammocks!) It was perfect for us and I had a hard time getting my newbie friends to leave and explore the rest of the island. Phenomenal experience and a great helpful host on call. I will be back to this property and only this property for future trips. When we showed up we felt the photos on vrbo significantly downplayed this stunning property.

Charming house in a spectacular, magical location
Our family stayed here to celebrate my 75th birthday, and every day we pinched ourselves, thrilled to wake up to the spectacular view across the wide lawn overlooking a very private beach. this is not a "resort-type" home but an older, quirky plantation-style home that was perfect for our casual family. It's very private, and the first time a little hard to get to because it's down a long private road; but after that we had no problem. The house was well-equipped with appliances, barbecues, snorkeling equipment and beach toys for our three-year old. There were some issues with the stove; the owner had ordered a new one that was taking a while to come. So we happily barbecued in the outdoor pavilion! There are LOTS of mosquitoes, so we had to keep the doors closed at certain times of day; no air conditioning, but plenty of fans. This is a unique and beautiful property, in a magical location that we felt very lucky to stay in.

Location, location, LOCATION!
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

Million dollar view and privacy
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.

Fabulous Location!!
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 view and location is perfection
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.

Beautiful location amazing trip
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!

Moloaa Magic
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!

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.

Magical Home Away from Home
This property was the perfect place for us. Nestled in the woods on a plateau overlooking Maloa'a Bay, there is comfort, privacy and the most wonderful views of the bay, the ocean, the mountains, the stars, the waves and all that they have to offer. It is ground level making it easy to access for those with mobility concerns. There were lots of dishes and cookware which meant our leaving the property happened very little. The furniture was all comfortable!!! What a treat that was. The beach is a short walk down the slightly steep driveway. Most of the folks on the beach were locals and were very helpful and pleasant. Joy was easily available via text for any questions we had. The property is not a new resort, it is an old family home. It was comfortable inside but more importantly, it was fabulous outside. The breeze was magnificent and even on the day it rained like cats and dogs, it was great to be all the different places on the property. Easy to take care of, too. This is my Hawaiian Home Away from Home.

Beautiful, private paradise
Our foursome enjoyed an idyllic week at this beachfront paradise. The privacy here is impressive, the beach so accessible with fine sand, coral reefs and great wildlife (sea turtles, stingrays, many fish and birds). Stargazing was really enjoyable at night. We swam and snorkeled every day! The older home had its charms and expected limitations. Joy & Michael were responsive to a water issue, a leaky pipe outside, and had people fixing it before we returned from an excellent Saturday farmer’s market in Lihue near the community college. We really enjoyed the comfortable, rustic vibe of the place and would stay here again!

“The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Psalm19:1
My husband and I finally got the privilege of introducing our children to our favorite place on earth...Kauai! We were so blessed to have the opportunity to vacation at Joy’s lovely residence for two magnificent weeks. This inviting Hawaiian plantation home was absolutely perfect for our active family’s needs. To begin each morning absorbing such spectacular views of the serene bay at sunrise to concluding each evening enjoying the sensational sunsets descending behind the impressive mountain backdrop was truly reviving to the soul! Just as the psalmist declared, “From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised” (Psalm 113:3) and that was exactly our reaction to such breathtaking scenery! It was so intriguing discovering all the exotic vegetation and various fruit trees surrounding the well-manicured property, too. The uncrowded northeast section of Kauai is our favorite area due to its beauty and easy accessibility to the north and south portions of the island. Moloa’a Bay is a very desirable beach that others seek out to spend the day. Fabulous trees around the bay provide wonderful shade that most beaches lack. We loved the privacy and security of the residence with it situated on a small bluff overlooking Moloa’a Bay, yet the beach was only a short walk down the driveway. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring around the lava rock and walking the perimeter of the beach. We had the convenience of being able to use the stand up paddle board, snorkel around the reef and boogie board with the equipment available at the house. We managed to visit other beaches during our stay but decided this incredible one at our front door was undeniably the best! Joy’s place was well stocked with kitchen supplies, linens, paper towels, beach towels, etc. She has obviously made significant updates to this charming plantation home, incorporated comfy bedding, new furniture, a fresh coat of paint in addition to future improvements down the road. Joy was an excellent communicator, and we really appreciated the effort she put in to ensuring our stay was comfortable and unproblematic. She was so accommodating throughout our entire time spent on the island, willing to answer any questions or provide us with extra departure time if needed. Our family looks forward to returning to this wonderful paradise and creating more unforgettable memories! It was our tropical home away from home!

For me, this is the most beautiful place on Earth. Overlooking the pristine bay and then out to the horizon. There are no visible neighbors. I love old houses and this one suited me just fine. The beds are very comfortable, the appliances upgraded and hot water coming out of the faucets. If you need more, probably a resort would suit you better. We hardly ever left in the car we rented. The beach is my favorite and just a short walk down the driveway. We will rent again. The reason for the four stars on cleanliness was an issue with the coffee maker. Not a crisis at all and we corrected it ourselves. Joy is windstorm work with and we loved the chocolate macadamias and flowers put out for us as a welcome. Mahalo, Joy for an unforgettable journey to paradise. I hope to return next year!

What a unique and restful property. Moloaa Bay is a remote, country like setting away from the density of condo holiday vacations. Beautiful views across the bay, uncrowded beach to walk on, and swimming right out front. The house is an older, but very functional plantation style place to stay with family and friends.
