OVERVIEW
Experience Kauai from an extraordinary oceanfront setting where the Pacific is your backyard. Perched dramatically above the lava-rock coastline in Poipu, Hale Moku offers sweeping ocean views, multiple lanais, generous spaces for gathering, and a front-row seat to some of Kauai's most unforgettable wildlife and sunsets. Watch sea turtles, monk seals, and whales from the comfort of home, then walk to nearby Poipu Beach for a day in the sun.
Some Kauai homes give you an ocean view. Hale Moku gives you the ocean as an experience.
Set directly along the dramatic Poipu coastline, this spacious oceanfront home sits above the Pacific on a lava-rock cliff, surrounded by tropical landscaping and the natural beauty of Kauai's sunny South Shore.
From the moment you arrive, the view commands your attention. Multiple lanais and expansive windows create countless opportunities to enjoy the ocean throughout the day—from a quiet cup of coffee as the sun rises to an evening gathering as the sky turns golden over the Pacific.
And the wildlife is part of the experience. Keep watch from the property for Hawaiian green sea turtles and monk seals in the water below, and during whale season, you may see humpbacks traveling along the coast. After sunset, the unobstructed setting creates an incredible opportunity for stargazing.
Inside, Hale Moku is designed for groups who want to spend time together without feeling crowded. The main living area offers comfortable gathering space framed by spectacular ocean views, while the fully equipped kitchen makes preparing meals together easy. A generous kitchen island provides additional workspace and a natural place for guests to gather.
Enjoy meals around the dining table surrounded by windows or take dinner outside to one of the ocean-facing outdoor spaces.
The home's bedroom layout provides privacy while maintaining a strong sense of connection. The main house includes four bedrooms, with three offering en suite bathrooms. A separate attached studio provides additional flexibility with a king bed, sofa bed, private bathroom, and air conditioning—ideal for grandparents, couples, or guests who appreciate having their own space.
With accommodations for up to 14 guests, Hale Moku is especially well suited for multigenerational family vacations, reunions, milestone celebrations, and groups of friends traveling together.
And then there's Poipu.
From the home, you can walk to beloved Poipu Beach for swimming, snorkeling, surfing, sunbathing, and some of the South Shore's most beautiful coastal scenery. Restaurants, shops, golf, and other Poipu attractions are also close by.
After a day of exploring, return to your private oceanfront setting. Gather on the lanai. Watch the turtles below. Listen to the surf. Pour a glass of wine and watch the sunset disappear beyond the Pacific.
Hale Moku isn't simply a place to stay in Kauai. It's a place to experience Kauai together.
PLEASE NOTE: The main house does not have air conditioning. The attached studio does have air conditioning. The main home is designed to take advantage of Kauai's natural ocean breezes and is equipped with ceiling fans and portable fans. Hale Moku is an authentic older Kauai home, and its character and extraordinary location are an important part of its appeal.
Guests have a private entrance, patio, garden backyard, outdoor seating, BBQ grill, and oceanfront setting near the beach. This unit has air conditioning in the attached studio and an in-unit washer and dryer.
Hale Moku is in Poipu, a sunny South Shore beach town with a mix of family-friendly coves and more dramatic coast. Poipu Beach Park is a popular place for swimming and snorkeling, while Shipwreck Beach offers cliffs, surf, and a wilder shoreline. Restaurants, shops, and resort dining are close by, and Old Koloa Town is a short drive inland for history and local food. This area works well for a large group that wants beach time and easy meal options nearby.
Lihue Airport (LIH) is about 30 to 40 minutes from Koloa. A rental car is recommended for Poipu beaches, dining, and the wider south shore. Old Koloa Town is walkable for boutiques and restaurants, while beaches are a short drive away. Parking is generally available at properties or in small town lots, which makes it easy to explore both on foot and by car.
We are a local Heavenly Vacations team based here on Kauai, and we look after this home ourselves. Send a message through Airbnb whenever something comes up and a real person will take care of it. Ask us where to find the quieter beach, the best shave ice, or which side of the island to choose on a rainy morning. We respect your privacy and will give you space while staying close by.
