About this house rental

This lovely hilltop villa, Hale Makani Nui, or House of Strong Wind, is delightfully elevated, in every sense of the word. Its picturesque placement at the crown of a gently sloping lot gives an enchanting estate-like feel to the entire property, while also providing expansive sea-and-sunset views. The dramatic approach, flanked by plush lawns and pygmy palms, ascends to a beautiful home with graceful, soaring lines and a sage-painted façade that seems to echo the luxuriant tropical foliage all around.

Inside, the spacious, impeccably comfortable rooms, furnished in elevated-plantation style with an artful mix of luminous antiques and contemporary accessories, flow seamlessly onto inviting lanais that showcase sparkling views of blue horizon and vividly colorful sunsets. Pleasant surprises and bonus features abound: a mountain-view executive office; 2 refreshing outdoor showers; and a Jacuzzi® on the lanai near the living room, to name a few. As for location, world-famous Poipu beaches, golf courses, and hiking trails are a quick drive away, along with an appealing array of restaurants, shops, and activities. Convenience + comfort + charm: a classical equation that, in this case, equals a perfectly idyllic stay on the spectacular South Shore!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a trip we originally booked in 2020 but due to Covid and family schedules it was delayed 4 years!!! We finally made it to the beautiful island and were so very lucky to have found this wonderful home. First of all the views off the deck where we spent the majority of our time are spectacular, the deck was so special and the entire family loved it. The only complaints we have are the main room/kitchen not having AC made it a little uncomfortable in the afternoons and if we cooked anything in the oven. The bedrooms were perfect for our family ( only suggestion would be to have a tv available in all main bedrooms ). The home is absolutely amazing and we would definitely stay again during the cooler months. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

The house is beautiful and we didn’t want to leave! The living areas are airy, inviting, and comfortably accommodated our family. The bedrooms are cozy and restful, and the master bedroom in particular is wonderful. The large lanai is the star of the show and where we spent hours sipping coffee (and later, wine!), reading rooms, and playing games. The perfect vacation accommodations!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hale Makani Nui was the absolute perfect home for our Kauai stay. We are a family of 6 with 4 young adult children. The house and all of its details were great. True luxury living. For us the lanai off the living room was the feature that we most enjoyed, including the hot tub after long days away from the home. We traveled around the island quite a bit and found this location to be perfect, both for centrality to all things and proximity to great beaches and dozens of places to eat. I highly recommend this home and wouldn’t want to stay on Kauai again unless it was here.

Took the family to celebrate a 80th birthday for my father-in-law. The house was beautiful and a great location to the Poipu beaches. Only gripes were that since you are on the golf course, the lawn mowers and leaf blowers start at 7am, so bring ear plugs or play lots of white noise. The only other issue was the inside stairwell. Since the stairs and the floors are the same wood, 3 people out of our family of 6 missed the last step and fell within the first day. Ended up buying painters tape and marking the last step which ended all falling
