Just steps from the beach, this cozy two-bedroom, two-bathroom oceanfront cottage at Kepuhi Beach Resort has everything you need. The private lanai is covered for shade, allowing you to relax, watch the sunset over the horizon, and fill the cottage with delightfully cool ocean breezes. You'll be very close to the property's oceanfront pool and a short walk from the barbecue area, with breaching whales visible out front in the wintertime. Enjoy the convenience of a fully appointed kitchen, a flatscreen TV with cable, and free WiFi. On the ground floor, you'll find one bedroom with a queen-size bed, a sleeper sofa in the living room, a bathroom with a tub/shower, and a private washer/dryer. The upper-level bedroom has two twin beds and a bathroom with a shower.

What's nearby:
Kepuhi Beach Resort is an oceanfront property on the west end of the island of Molokai, with grounds that include an oceanfront swimming pool, gas grills with picnic tables, and a sundry shop with trinkets and food to purchase. Right out front, on both sides of the old hotel, is 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. Kepuhi Beach Resort is less than a mile from Make Horse and its many tidepools, seven miles northwest of the town of Maunaloa (the only town on the west end), and 20 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. Molokai is about entertaining yourselves, although Hotel Molokai on a Friday night is entertaining itself!

Check in was easy, once we found the cottage. The cottage is located in an abandoned resort. This place would have been beautiful 30 years ago. The cottage was filthy dirty. The kitchen facilities and inside cupboards and drawers was disgusting. I needed to wash everything that we used. WiFi was great and the location was amazing.

Closet home to ocean. Beautiful views, sun set from lanai. I rent this home every year with no disappointments. Will be back next years to come.

This unit has the best view of and proximity to the beach and surf. However, it needs serious refurbishment--paint is flaking off the walls, the finish is wearing off the floor, and the electrical system is failing. None of the electrical outlets in the kitchen work. We had to plug in the coffee maker by the bathroom sink and the toaster on the floor in the dining area. The lamp by the bed doesn't work: the switch is missing. Someone from the resort management had to come turn on the TV connection. However, we had a great time exploring on foot and by car--got plenty of exercise hiking around.

Incredible atmosphere with the constant roar of the Pacific! Really appreciate the constant attention to detail, care, and hospitality provided by Tammy from the main office on Maui! She’s amazing!

I’ve stayed here before and you cannot beat the view and location. I give it one star because as it used to be funky and dated, now it is neglected and run down. Management is distant, polite and useless. As the price has gone up and the quality tanks, I can not recommend staying in this unit.

Property location was great - ocean front and very quiet. The interior was not well maintain - found a dead centipde on the kitchen floor. Many of the buildings in the complex were boarded up.

This is our second time staying at the oceanfront cottage (we frequently visit Kepuhi, but it's always booked). The west end isn't for everyone, but if you know, you know, and you can't get any closer to the water. Great setup for a family or 2 couples.

We loved the property The cottage itself needs maintenance attention; We could not fully secure our place because 1 of the sliding locks to the bedroom doors was frozen from the salt air. (that was a bit unsettling whenever we left the place to go to the beach or town) Also the upstairs shower curtain was very corroded with mold & because it was too long for the fit of the shower it always was wet adding to mosquitos gathering in the bathroom. All in all we loved the stay & I hope to rent this & the next door cottage for my family in the future
