Our entire family enjoyed the fabulous view of the coast, crashing waves and sunsets. We had a difficult time with the access code but your local assistant helped us out. The kitchen had good appliances and cooking tools. A few more serrated knives would be nice. The photo misrepresented the property which was built in 1993. It is in great need of repair and paint. Many of the electrical outlets didn’t work and the air conditioning in the studio was more of a swamp cooler. Only 1 out of 3 portable fans worked. Cockroaches came into the master bath because the window needs repair. We hope to return in a few years but hope you make some well needed updates.

The view is what win is over. It alone putshines any negatives about this property. Definately lacking in a few features someone from out of state can't bring with them nor would want to purchase for such a short stay, including items such as spices and other items for cooking, foil, and extra rolls of paper towels.

We watched whales and turtles from our deck everyday. The location is amazing but the house could use a little TLC. It was enough space for all of us both inside and outside.

The views from this property are the best! The house needs a lot of TLC and updating and lots of creatures inside like roaches, lizards and ants as none of the doors or screens close tight so they can all just walk in whenever. Second level is extremely hot with no AC and does not cool down until around midnight. Having said all of that there was plenty of room and being on the ocean and listening to the waves was fantastic.

We loved staying here! The views and sound of the ocean absolutely cannot be beat. The location is great and very close to both Poipu and Shipwreck beaches. We stayed in January and except for one particularly warm day, did not miss the A/C. While we would agree with some other reviewers that certain parts of the property could use updating, we found the place to be very clean and the furnishings comfortable. The house was VERY well equipped with anything you might need for a beach vacation, such as boogie boards, snorkeling gear, chairs, etc. We have small kids and were also impressed with the assortment of kids’ items, including a high chair, pack n’ play, even baby gates to block the stairs. Overall, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again if/when we return to Kauai!

Rated as 3 stars, location and view are a 5, interior of the home is a 3. We loved the view, watching the wave action hitting the cliff side, the turtles that visited every day, and proximity to the beaches, a short walk. The downside is the home needs to address their maintenance issues. A small cost and effort would greatly improve the experience. Specifically, deep cleaning of the home, repair/replace window coverings (some are broken snd some are missing), sliding door and window tracts need cleaning for ease to operate, some furniture needs replacement/repair and some a cleaning. Certainly the value of this home is the location, exceptional view of the sea-life, sunsets and night sky.

This house had everything we wanted for a total Kauai experience. The view is outstanding for whales, dolphins, turtles and sunset. Quick walk to the beach for great swimming, surfing and snorkeling. Comfortable beds, clean. Well stocked kitchen. Beach gear including towels all provided. Had a couple of minor issues like coffee pot that were resolved very quickly by the very friendly staff. This is an older, classic house with some wear, but perfect for what we wanted. We didn't want to leave. Mahalo!

Location is amazing, view of the ocean is outstanding, with daily spotting a of whales, turtles, even a seal swimming by! Lots of room for our family of 12 to enjoy. The electrical in the house needs work with several lamps not working, otherwise, it was absolutely perfect!

I have been returning to this house for the past six years twice a year. I love this house so much. It’s beautiful charm, location, and comfort ability has everything that you could possibly dream of. Can’t wait to come back!

Location, Location, Location - The only thing that would have made this house better in my opinion would be air conditioning. I was under the impression that several rooms had AC, but it was only the studio that had outdoor access. The home was very uncomfortable during the day in July. Luckily, we found ourselves out and about most days. The evening cooled off enough to sleep comfortably. Enough complaining, this place is magnificent, I have been home one day and already miss the ocean waves crashing on the shore. Not sure how I will ever sleep well again without them it was hypnotic. The home has 3 bedrooms with king beds and the studio with king bed and two twin beds in a room with curtains which is perfect for 2 kids. There is also the loft which was my room this is also the hottest part of the house, but the views and the private deck made it worth it to me. if I travel with a large party to Koloa again, I will try and get this home. Our two weeks here included a lot of short walks to Poipu beach. Early morning and sunsets walks were worth the trip all by themselves. I highly recommend Koloa zip lines, and Island Helicopters. The Jurassic Landing tour was amazing and more than I expected. Our fishing trip was on rough waters so you don't want my opinion on that (lol). Aloha and Mahalo to Vacasa for providing this home!

We really enjoyed our week here on Kauai. Having a 2-level porch/deck overlooking the cliffs and ocean just can't be beat. The beds were very comfortable and the 9 of us had what we needed. The dining table seated us all and we enjoyed several meals there.. The kitchen had what we needed, but the ice maker was very slow. There are some issues where paint and repairs are needed, two of the sliding doors are quite difficult to slide and some cooling in the main house would be nice. It gets rather warm in the afternoon, but the ceiling fans and free standing fans do help and it does cool off in the evening. Having a home in FL we know about bugs and keeping them at bay. However we found more cockroaches in our week here than we do in a year in FL. Perhaps a new extermination service could do better. Overall, the pros outweigh the cons by a good margin. We would consider staying here again.

What a beautiful home! I loved all the options of where to sit and relax inside and outside. The landscape was gorgeous and so nice to be near some amazing beaches too.

This is the best home we have ever stayed at in all of our travels. We had all of our adult kids with us and we didn’t want to leave. The view is unmatched and my favorite part is sitting in the porch with a morning cup of coffee. The house is well equipped and very welcoming and comfortable.

Our family of 7 (all adults) throughly loved Hale Moku 🌴 Plenty big enough for every one to have their own BR with attached bath, table space for family meals and games. The view is beyond fantastic, with daily turtle sightings right off the balcony. Loved EVERY minute and truly hated leaving. Hope to be back soon

This is as advertised. Plan to spend a lot of time on the balcony watching the waves. We saw dolphins, rays, and humpbacks. Even schools of fish off the side. Some of the appointments are dated, but they have done a nice job with personality pieces. Like every rental I've done in Hawaii, the light switches are impossible to find and the house needs updates, but it is a fabulous price and the advertised rates are fair. Strong recommendation.

The views are amazing all around the home. Turtles and dolphins visited the property shores everyday we stayed at the property.
Thank you for contributing to a great vacation with this home.

We (three adult couples) scored 5 stars above solely for the perfect location of this house and the absolutely magnificent views. We sat on the deck every morning and evening and watched whales breach and sea turtles play in the cove below and the stunning sunrises and sunsets. We easily walked to Poipu Beach or caught the trail along the ocean to Shipwreck Beach and beyond. Beach towels, umbrellas and beach chairs were available for our use. The kitchen was supplied well with dishes, glasses, pots, pans, etc. The house is very private and we could not hear anything but the crashing waves and rooster every morning. Sadly, if we score the condition of the house, it would be about 2-3 stars. The house was definitely clean but needs some serious TLC. Many of the glass shutters on the windows don't work, some are missing. Some of the furniture was in sad shape, stuffing falling out of bottom of dining chairs, had to sit on pillows on these chairs to not feel like we would fall through. The electrical throughout the house was a mystery, many switches don't work and other switches and fan remotes turned on lights and fans in other locations. Some bathrooms, kitchen cabinets and other areas had serious mildew smells. Outside the decks and railings needed TLC and one railing leading down to a patio by the cove was downright dangerous having come loose. Deck chairs were usable but not in good shape. Vacasa could have supplied more soaps and shampoos in every bathroom as there was only enough for a couple of days. We fully understand how much maintenance it takes to keep up a property sitting right on the ocean, but they have let some maintenance go for way too long. It sounds like we had a miserable time, but we had a fabulous vacation there! As I started with, the views and location made up for a lot of deficiencies, probably one of the best locations in Poipu, it just needs some TLC.

One of the great things about this home is its fabulous location. Sitting atop the rocky coastline with the waves crashing just feet below is hard to beat. We spent hours sitting on the balcony watching for turtles below and whales further out. The night sky was beautiful. The home itself easily accommodated our family of eight and was very comfortable. One or two things could do with some TLC, but we still enjoyed our stay and would return again in the future.

We loved this home. This home is located in the best location on the island. The only set back was the main house has no AC. At night it was very nice, the winds are sufficient to cool the home. During the day the house is way too hot. We would stay again if they get AC.

Location was fantastic and we’d stay here again for sure. The electrical seems a bit off. Turn on one fan another turns off. Lights flickered also. Electrical should be checked out. Small maintenance on screens for doors and windows could be beneficial. Otherwise excellent house, unbelievable location and view!
