Location! Location! Location!

You can't judge a book by it's cover. This place looks run-down from the outside, but the living space upstairs is beautiful, clean, comfortable and has an incredible view! The ocean is right out the windows and beach is reached just by walking downstairs. We spotted whales and turtles from the many windows. We found ourselves not wanting to go anywhere else! Do note, you do need to be able to walk up about 30 steps to get to the living quarters, and the parking area would only accommodate a car (no SUVs, etc). The kitchen was well stocked, all linens were clean. You'll need your own shower soap and shampoo. We loved our stay and would stay again.

We showed up a little early and the property manager gave us the okay to check in early to accompany us. When we parked we quickly realized that we booked a gem. You park and literally five steps from sand. The house is very rustic and we loved it. It was perfect for our get away with our 1yr 9month old. Would recommend to any couple or small family. Moala beach is amazing and your within 15min iof several other beaches. Can’t wait to go back.

10/10 Would Stay Again

We LOVED this place. The location is idyllic for a couple looking to get away somewhere probate and unique. This rustic cabin was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a one week stay in Kauai. We had friends staying in Princeville and appreciated how close the cabin was to other neighboring towns while still remaining quiet and peaceful.

My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights in December and it was amazing. The ocean comes right up to the building almost, the breeze and the surf are fantastic. There are a lot of stairs and the a/c really only applies to the bedroom but, whatever, if you are looking for a posh resort, this is not it. You might see a bug or two, get over it, because you will have the most amazing view and beach almost entirely to yourself. We saw maybe 3 people a day on the beach. All day. Moloa'a Bay is spectacular. Where else in HA can you have an ENTIRE BAY to yourself with the surf so loud in your place that you will have to close some windows to be able to hear the tv? The vintage mahigany woodwork is awesome (there are 3 pocket doors), at times it feels like you are on a ship, because all you see when you glance outside is water. Tremendous spot. Brian was very responsive and helpful. We will be back.
