NO EXTRA COSTS for early check-in and late check-out in the TRUE SPIRIT OF ALOHA if it is possible with the property caretaker. Late check-outs are great with a later flight...and works out when there is NOT a check-in by another guest later that same day of check-out. Easy to just communicate with us a couple weeks ahead of your reservation with us at Aloha Beach Vacations and share that extra bit of Aloha!

Perched on a fabulous white sand beach in the middle of secluded and crescent-shaped Moloa'a Bay. Moloa'a Bay is quiet and not frequented by tourists – you will truly feel like you have escaped to an island paradise!
In fact, this is the beach where Gilligan's Island the hit TV show from the 1970's filmed the opening seen.
This cottage was built with wood imported from the Philippines. It has a master bedroom with a queen bed, a kitchen and a living room with panoramic ocean views.
There is excellent swimming, diving, and snorkeling only steps away. Hawaiian monk seals, whales and dolphins are frequently sighted from the balcony. The towns of Princeville, Kilauea and Kapaa are all about a 10-15 minute drive away.

    I couldn't think of a better, more gorgeous setting to celebrate my milestone birthday. The place was fabulous! Lulled to sleep every night with the sounds of waves, wake to the same and spent the days watching the water turn from emerald to various shades of blue, sighting sea turtles, seals and birds too. Nights were filled with star and moon gazing, seeing shooting stars and marveling at the Milky Way and constellations all from the balcony! Doesn't get any better than that! We bought fresh fish from a local fish market, cooked at the rental every day and dinned on the balcony. No restaurant had that tasty of meals and there is no better view in all of Kauai than here. And it was just the two of us so private also! The place was fully stocked and we wanted for nothing. The manager Brian was great. He spent plenty of time talking with me and answering ALL my many questions months before our stay, during and even after. He was kind, considerate, giving and prompt in replies. One of my best VRBO rentals!

    This was the perfect place for our second honeymoon. Just thinking about it makes me miss Hawaii. My only nit-pick is that the bedroom windows didn’t close, but with everything this property had to offer, the windows were easy to overlook.

    We had an amazing stay at the house. It is right in the beach and you couldn’t ask for more! I hope we are able to return one day! Thank you for letting us stay in your home in paradise!

    Quaint, rustic but everything you need is there. You'll climb 30 stairs so be prepared. The first thing you will see is the view!!! If it doesn't knock your socks then there is something wrong with you. If your socks aren't already off, get them off. Enjoy the locals and just let go.

    The rental is mostly as described, a bit weatherworn but generally serviceable except that we were without running water for almost half our stay. Our issue was with the property manager, Brian V. at ALOHA BEACH VACATIONS. Upon arrival we realized we had no running water. This continued for 3 days, during this period, we had to purchase drinking water and eat out practically every meal, as cooking was not an option. For flushing the toilet, we found a 5-gallon bucket in the garage, collected water from the ocean and carried it up multiple flights of stairs to the 3rd floor rental repeatedly over the 3 FULL days. After 48 hours of no water, we were offered temporary alternate accommodation which allowed us to shower but it meant going back and forth between two locations, a 30-minute drive each way. We were in daily contact with Brian, who made a lot of promises but didn’t follow through on any of them. We would have been satisfied if he had just been willing to meet us halfway on this and comp us for the nights without water, but he refused. After 3 days, we got water, (via a garden hose) but no Hot water for remainder of stay. We contacted VRBO, they reached out to Brian directly and were told that he would not provide us with any compensation for being out of water, as there was a NO-Refund policy. There are people in this world that do the right thing and others that do what they can get away with. Renters-Beware when dealing with Aloha Beach Vacations.

    Absolutely spectacular. My husband and I stayed here during our honeymoon, which was also our first trip to Kauai. We fell in love with Moloa’a bay and couldn’t believe we were lucky enough to stay directly on it. This place had everything we needed for a perfect stay.

    The house is definitely right on the beach, My wife and myself spent our honeymoon here, this was exactly what I had hoped for, very low key a perfect little place to spend some one on one time with each other. The area is beautiful, we saw seals manta rays We would definitely stay here again. My only complaint would be the entry door at the garage level, lots of fish while snorkeling

    We have stayed in many VRBO’s. This listing had many great reviews so I was quite hopeful. However upon arrival the key was hard to get at, it was late, dark, unlit & salt water has made it very hard to open the box. There are (as reviews state) many repairs that need to be made. The front door has been busted & haphazardly fixed, the upstairs door window busted, upstairs multiple screens bent, coming loose. BUT the most upsetting was that the washing machine broke & water went everywhere. I was told to wring out my clothes (we found a laundromat). They also list the bed as a Queen size bed which is false-it is a full size bed. Had this been properly mentioned I would not have booked as this made things quite miserable for 2 grown adults to sleep together for 2 weeks. It is also listed as a private beach which is not the case as the public is constantly parked on either side of the small road to get to the secluded beach. The beach is not a good swimming beach, but is nice to look at. Go to Poipu Beach.
