This sophisticated, spacious, stylish, newly remodeled tropical villa seems to exist in an enchanting, resort-like world of its own, yet it’s just a few minutes from world-class beaches and all the other attractions of Poipu, Koloa and the South Shore. From top to bottom, the exceptionally charming 2-story home is artfully enhanced with tasteful furnishings and custom finishes, and every window frames a stirring view of Mount Hau‘pu, lush tropical foliage, or the sparkling sea.
The 5 airy, well-appointed bedrooms are cool and private, while the 3.5 baths are elegantly embellished with marble, glass, and wood. There’s a fully equipped gourmet kitchen with casual counter seating (and a painterly view), a full-fledged dining room, and a wet bar with wine fridge. Classy details and unexpected touches add to the appeal, from the luminous woodwork and the glossy green-granite counters. All the common areas (including lanais on both levels) are irresistibly inviting, and the natural indoor-outdoor flow is ideally suited for languid relaxation or convivial socializing. Downstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. All bedrooms have sliding doors which segue to a sun-splashed, extra-large lanai with a garden where luxuriant tropical landscaping and attractive lounging furniture. To top it all off, a distinctive black-bottomed salt water swimming pool with raised spa and lava-rock waterfall provides at-home entertainment.
The house and garden are almost too delightful to leave, but when you do venture out, you’ll discover a bonus perk: guest privileges at the Poipu Kai complex’s swimming pool and top-flight tennis courts. It’s a pleasant stroll to breathtaking beaches and the opulent Grand Hyatt Resort, and the scenic Green Belt walkway is a small wonder in itself. Not far away, by car, are The Shops at Kukui‘ula: an upscale yet laid-back marketplace with restaurants, stores, boutiques, galleries, special events, and a friendly, festive atmosphere. The Shops are also the site of the lively Culinary Market, where (on Wednesdays) you can find everything from breakfast papayas to artistic T-shirts to delicious local-style treats, icy cold or hot off the grill. And when you’re ready to explore the rest of the island, it’s less than two miles to a highway heading West, East, or North—with breathtaking scenery and once-in-a-lifetime adventures awaiting, in any direction you choose.

The house was perfect for my whole family. There were 11 of us and we had the most amazing time.
It was the perfect location and the communication with the owner was excellent.
Highly recommend!

This house was a perfect fit for our family of 9. We had a blast in the lovely pool with waterfall, relaxed in the spa, and enjoyed being able to cook and barbecue right at home throughout the trip. We loved the huge island with cooktop, oven and microwave, and everything we needed was there. Lovely home with stained wood details everywhere. The tiki torches around the pool are a great touch!! We loved our stay.

We visited with a group of six adults and one toddler and had a wonderful time in Kauai. The property was lovely, very comfortable for our family. Very user friendly in terms finding things and USING the kitchen. The few small things that needed repair were immediately addressed. The flowers snacks and coffee on arrival were a nice touch.
The property has a peak view at Hideaways beach and is an easy walk to the Hyatt and to Poipu Beach for active people. It’s also single story for the main level for less active people which was ideal for our group.
We were blessed to have a full moon during our visit and spent every night in the pool. It was magical!

We had a wonderful week in Kauai. Rental was as advertised and suited our group of 10 perfectly. Loved the location - short walks to three different beaches, and we ate at excellent nearby restaurants. Great location to get to other island activities and experiences. Staff was terrific in responding to our requests. One small issue - our week in Hawaii was really on the windy and rainy side. The pool was not as warm as we wanted. It would have been nice to be able to pooch up the temp a bit. Would return in a minute.

This is a great house for a family, plenty of room for all to spread out. We enjoyed the lanai and the hot tub for end of day beers and relaxation. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well-appointed for cooking. (Plastic bags/foil would be a good addition) The location is fabulous for easy walks to the beaches and the great walking paths. The lanai has great views of both the mountains and a bit of the ocean. The concierge was great to deal with, she helped set up a few things for us. My only quibble is the lower level smells musty, and some of the furniture on the lanai was pretty stained. Didnt stop us from eating meals and morning coffee outside!

From the initial drive up the steep driveway, we were in awe! Gorgeous property. Listing photos were very accurate. The views from the lanai and the kitchen window were breathtaking.
The home was spacious and comfortable for our large family of 11. Sliding doors that opened from the lanai to the living space was a highlight of the interior space.
The pool and the hot tub were another highlight of the outdoor space.
This home had everything we needed. We did a lot of cooking and enjoying all aspects of the space. The home is situated high up on a hill and its placement definitely added to its peacefulness. Quiet and private.
There is an easy and quick walk to Shipwreck Beach. Easy and short drive to the adorable town of Koloa.
We loved it so much here that we didn’t want to leave.
We have decided to make a point to come back to the same house in a few years if it’s still a listing.
Communication with property management was 100%. Very helpful and cordial. They even saved us booking fees on an excursion on island.
We will definitely return. Thank you for such a wonderful adventure😊

We visited Hale Keoniloa with my wife's extended family in February 2024. The property is in an excellent neighborhood, was clean and inviting, and met all of our expectations. A few refrigeration units were not working, but management brought in an extra fridge/freezer for the garage, so all needs were met. The team at Wailani was responsive and kind at all times relevant, and I would recommend their managed properties to anyone interested in visiting the island. Mahalo!
