Ke Nani Kai 121

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

One of the loveliest condos on the property, Ke Nani Kai 121 is a ground-floor escape where you can step out onto the grass from your private lanai and take in views of the ocean, the beach, and the palms rustling in the breeze. Recently and tastefully remodeled, this condo features a living room with oversize couches and armchairs to relax you after a day spent at the beach, a private washer/dryer to refresh your swimsuits each evening, and a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a three-person breakfast bar. Enjoy the convenience of free WiFi and cable service at home, as well as an outdoor pool, a hot tub, tennis courts, and barbecues on the surrounding grounds - all within walking distance of the beautiful beaches on Molokai's west end. It's a wonderful place to take a vacation!

What's nearby:
Ke Nani Kai is a lovely property located on the west side of the island of Molokai, with grounds that include a large outdoor swimming pool, a hot tub, two tennis courts, gas grills, lounge chairs for sunbathing, and tables for al fresco meals. It's about a five-minute walk down an access road to Kepuhi Beach, which is great for surfing in the winter months, ideal for swimming and snorkeling come summer, and the site of many paddle races to Oahu. You'll also be a short stroll across the old golf course from Papohaku Beach, one of the longest beaches in the state of Hawaii with waters that are rough in the winter but calmer for ocean swimming in summer. Ke Nani Kai is a half-mile stroll from Make Horse and its many tidepools, six miles northwest of the town of Maunaloa (the only town on the west end), and 19 miles west of Kaunakakai, where most grocery stores, art/gift shops, mini markets, restaurants, and equipment rentals are located.

This arid west side of Molokai, just 12 miles from the airport, is known for having less rain than the east side of the island. And the island-wide evening quiet hours make Molokai perfect for romance, families, solitude, and experiencing a glimpse of the real Hawaii away from the tourist crowds.

Things to know:
Free WiFi (but please note that WiFi can be spotty)

Property furniture( couch and two chairs) very stained and dirty. ( see photos) I reported to vacasa immediately. I also did not receive our pool code until two days into the stay after multiple phone calls, text messages. Bed was comfortable and clean, room smelled of mildew upon entering. Better once we opened up windows and got fans going.

You will love the tranquil setting. No noise except the moments you can concentrate on hearing you breath. Sea Air wafting through from the beach. The picturesque sunset. No need to turn on the TV. You do have internet. However just take the time in and soak in the stillness of the evening and gain peace from the outside hustle and bustle.

Room offered the basic amenities and was clean. I believe the rate was good.

It is where time stood still. The simple beauty of Moloka'i captures days gone by. You fly from the main airports from Mokulele Airlines and it is you have passed through a portal of nostalgia. Go to Molokai and stay here. Captivate the do it yourself nature of things. Aloha and Mahalo Moloka'i.

My husband and I enjoyed staying at this property! It was the perfect escape to relax and unwind. The place was quiet, clean, and very inviting. There was access to the beach, pool/ hot tub, and other amenties. The host was fantastic, and it was only a short ride to town. We look forward to our return to Moloaki in the future!

First off, we love the Ke Nani Kai resort and this is our second unit. We loved the fit and finish of this unit, a bit more like a vacation at a hotel. It was exceptionally clean with a good bed. Pillows could be a bit better but were adequate. We also liked having access to the dishwasher, as the other unit did not have one. It is on the ground floor with lovely garden views. The garden at the sides of the terrace could do with a little maintance and new plants. Another added touch would be cushions for the chairs and loungers - they are really hard after a while. The resort is ultra quiet and beautifully landscaped. We truly enjoy coming here, and this unit did not disappoint.

Perfect studio for a couple or small family. Nice view of the islands largest white sand beach from the lanai and perfect place to watch the stars at night. Kitchen was equipped with everything you need to cook almost any meal imaginable.
