The jungle like foliage, the smell of plumeria, the ocean and the sky enchant you as the tradewinds of this perfect vacation cottage on stilts whispers its name, “Malanai”. Rather than describe it to you, here's what guests have written in the guest book: \*We watched the whales swim by from the lanai. \*The sound of the crashing waves put me to sleep every night. \*The beach is so close I had my morning coffee in my PJ’s on the beach. \*Your kids will actually like each other when you stay here! \*This is my dream house. \*From the very first moment it felt like home. \*I’m starting to save all my money now so I can buy a place on this street \*(Richard, 10 years old). \*The kitchen is so well stocked that we ate most meals here on the lanai. \*I’ve never stayed in a more perfect beach house. Hale Malanai is perfectly situated a few short steps from the crescent shaped Baby Beach. We supply the beach chairs, towels and toys. You supply the memories. It’s the best spot for sunset viewing. The advantage of being on stilts is that you not only get the “in your face” ocean view, you’ll catch the prevailing trade winds quite nicely as well. After all, Hale Malanai is named after those cooling winds! The back lanai has been described as a tropical treehouse. Palm trees surround the space creating a private jungle oasis making this spot the coolest lanai in Poipu. Got a rainy day?

Reviewer Comments: Our family of 4 loved the house it was perfect size for us, the view was beautiful and so close to the beach. We walked over to shopping, the stores were close and there were so many restaurants nearby. The house was clean and the kitchen was well appointed. The dishwasher was leaking which we reported and maintenance did come, it leaked again though so hopefully that will get fixed soon. The furnishings were high quality and well taken care of. Overall, we were very satisfied! ##### Tonya S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paulo B.

Reviewer Comments: Great experience for our vacation at Hale Malanai. Great communication from host prior to arrival. Found the property in IMMACULATE condition when got there. Very clean and well appointed. Loved the keyless entry, one less thing to keep track of when going snorkeling. 5 minute walk to Lawai beach for snorkeling, 30 second walk (not kidding) to Baby Beach for great sunsets and lounging beach side. Really cool neighborhood feel you don't get staying at a condo complex.Can't wait to stay there again. ##### DAN F. Stayed 9 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Caitlin L. Jul 5, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, house not ideal for babies or small kids Check in was smooth. Location was perfect for access to Baby Beach. The house was a little hot for a small child- so maybe not the best house for those with babies or very small children. The main rooms were cool, but the bedrooms were quite hot and stuffy for our 2 year old. There were some ants in the bedroom, even though we did not bring any food in there. Management very responsive to minor issues.Overall a nice stay, I would stay in the area, but probably somewhere with A/C until our kid is older. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c8bf3856-9dab-4f44-8844-f63472262181-1751733419501.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e7e1edf-08f3-4f31-87eb-77c9b6132da1-1751733781567.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e0be8910-84ab-4568-8650-f53bb6d5670f-1751733875136.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Caitlin L.

Reviewer Comments: This gem of a house is exactly as described and is a wonderful place to spend a vacation on Kauai. The design of the house is very well thought out. The fans and windows, especially in the cupola up top, work with the constant breeze to keep the house very comfortable during the day and at night. The location is perfect, with lots of stores and restaurants a quick walk away. Parking underneath the house is super easy and convenient. And the small troupe of sweet neighborhood cats that would visit now and then were the icing on the cake. We will absolutely stay here again. ##### michael h. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Beth G.

The home is exactly as we imagined it would be, with ample space to enjoy and a 15 second walk to the beach (good to run to catch the sunrise/sunset, or back if it sprinkles rain!). The house was stocked with absolutely everything you could imagine, and the beds were comfortable.We encountered some very minor maintenance issues but the property managers were prompt and professional to help.The only thing we wish we knew before hand were that there were multiple beach cats who hang out on the property. While very cute, we suffer from very bad cat allergies so it made it hard to enjoy the outside decks with them so close by consistently. Overall - a lovely stay! ##### Cameron P.

Interior was gorgeous, spacious, so comfortable. The lanai!!! Oh my goodness a wraparound lanai with a perfect view of the ocean. Hop over to the beach in 30 seconds. The little bed nook was our son’s heaven —he went there whenever he needed down time and loved it for reading and snoozing. The skylights and peaked ceilings—wow. The perfectly appointed kitchen. And the lovely personal touches, like Hawai-opoly board game that had us cracking up. We loved the kitties. Loved being able to walk to fine dining, grocery, shops—even while feeling tucked away from it all. We will be back! Thank you for an experience of a lifetime. ##### Michelle H.

Such a beautiful home with everything needed for a relaxing and fun vacation! We enjoyed dinner on the patio, listening to the waves at night, using the chairs/boogie boards/umbrellas at the beach. It was so nice to be steps from the beach so that we could enjoy sunrises and evenings at the beach! We hope to be able to come back someday and we would love to stay here again!

Baby beach is just steps away and a great place to relax away from the crowds. If you want to visit the more popular spots like poipu, it is a minimal drive. You can even walk to restaurants if you aren’t in the mood to cook. The house itself is open and spacious, and got wonderful breezes all day leaving sliding doors open throughout. Our family isn’t the type to stay at resorts, and found this property to be everything we were looking for. ##### garrett k.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a stellar time at Hale Malani. Our flights were late and when we arrived at 23:30 the outside and living room lights were on for us. Our two teens loved the front "double bedroom" that they made their own space. We talked and ate for hours every day on the lanai. The kitchen and all linens were extremely well outfitted. The location was fabulous and private parking a bonus. The beach, restaurants, bakeries, fabulous coffee, and shopping are all walkable. Thank you to the owners and Garden Island Rentals for making this house feel like home. ##### Martina M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yael S., San Jose, California Jan 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### What am amazing home! My family just got back from the most incredible stay at Hale Malanai. This home literally blew us away and the pictures, although lovely, don't even begin to do it justice. From the moment we walked in we were in love. The home is tranquil, peaceful, and full of light. It is decorated beautifully. Although it only has one true bedroom, it is very spacious and totally comfortable for my family of 4. No air conditioning, but it was truly not needed. It was so lovely opening all the windows and just letting the breeze float through. The views were just amazing, and we spent every morning on the balcony drinking coffee and just soaking it all up. The location by Baby Beach was just awesome and we spent lots of time there. Absolutely can't wait to return! ##### Yael S.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was exactly as described and is in a wonderful location. Although the property is accross the street, it really is just a few steps from the public access to the beach. The owners seemed to have thoiught of everything to help make your stay more enjoyable. They even have boogie boards, a surfboard, and many guidebooks that are available for use; not to mention all the kitchen appliances you will ever need. It sleeps four comfortably, although one person will need to sleep on a fold down bed. There is no air conditioning but there was a nice breeze blowing thru the house with the windows open. WIthin an hour after moving in, the house had cooled down and stayed comfortable thoughout our stay. Baby Beach is a great place to watch the sunset each evening. We spent the mnornings on the wrap around deck drinking our coffee. It is in a great little neighborhood and within wallking distance to the Beach House restaurant. We would definitely come back! ##### Brad S. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ilikai Hotel & Luxury Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Ilikai-Hotel-Luxury-Suites.h3479.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Waikiki-Beachcomber-By-Outrigger.h21123568.Hotel-Information) > > [Wailea Beach Resort - Marriott, Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Wailea-Beach-Resort-Marriott.h20303.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Waikiki-Beach.h2766.Hotel-Information) > > [Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa, Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Moana-Surfrider.h15534.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Waikiki-Beach.h25227.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Paradise Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OHANA-Waikiki-East-By-Outrigger.h14848.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Maui-At-Wailea.h14336.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Hawaiian-Village-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13857.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Reef-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h23249.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Waikiki.h7795.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Croix](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hotel-LaCroix.h49776.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Waikiki.h7385.Hotel-Information) > > [Palms at Wailea Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Palms-At-Wailea-Maui-By-Outrigger.h13093.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Waikiki-Beach.h22539.Hotel-Information) > > [Prince Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Prince-Waikiki.h287.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Waikiki-Beach-Walk.h1509657.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort, Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Royal-Hawaiian.h19184.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Wailea Maui, A Waldorf Astoria Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Grand-Wailea-Maui.h7867.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Princess-Kaiulani.h18246.Hotel-Information) > > [The Twin Fin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Twin-Fin-Hotel.h34498.Hotel-Information) > > ['Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Alohilani-Resort-Waikiki-Beach.h21781.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Kea Lani Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Fairmont-Kea-Lani-Maui.h8765.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Waikiki Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Waikiki-Banyan.h20880.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Waikiki-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h5306.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club The Modern Honolulu](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Modern-Honolulu.h3855608.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Shore Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Park-Shore-Waikiki.h13853.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13791.Hotel-Information) > > [Wayfinder Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Wayfinder-Waikiki.h6640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Waikiki-Beach-Resort-Spa.h19988.Hotel-Information)
