About this property

Hale Pohaku Kai: Poipu Seaside Stunner

Hale Pohaku Kai is a paradise of paradoxes: elegantly furnished, yet casually comfortable; spacious & airy yet cozy, too; wonderfully private, but with Poipu’s world-class sandy beaches, parks, restaurants, shopping & lively local events only a few minutes away. The property’s Hawaiian name (“Stonehouse by the Sea,” in English) reflects the dramatic location overlooking the Poipu seawall & the shimmering ocean beyond, with a nod to the stonework accents in lava rock & Pacific Rim limestone.

Inside and out, the open-plan design and tasteful tropical-themed décor create the gracious, laid-back ambience of an elevated plantation-style home by the shore—splashed with sunlight but with plenty of quiet, shady corners, and cooled by ceiling fans, tradewinds & gentle sea breezes. The large, west-facing wraparound lanai is perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or marveling at the vivid Polynesian sunsets, while the upstairs verandah (part of a master suite) offers thrilling seasonal glimpses of whales & dolphins. As if to complement the attractive art that adorns the walls, every single window in the house frames a striking, painterly view of ocean or mountains.

The fully equipped kitchen is an amateur chef’s dream, with gleaming appliances and plentiful counter space for creating delicious locavore meals—or dishing up tasty takeout from one of the many restaurants nearby. Charming details & pleasant surprises abound, from handsome Hawaiian quilts to lustrous hardwood floors to the melodic birdsong that drifts in from the plush, verdant garden. Hanging out at Hale Pohaku Kai is pure delight, but the location is also an ideal base for exploring the rest of this amazingly beautiful, endlessly intriguing island, with highway access just a short jaunt away. South, north, west, east: wherever you roam during the adventure-filled days, you can always look forward to returning to this lovely, restorative house by the sea.

Great house close to beaches
This was a great house for 6 adults, as each bedroom has an en suite bathroom. Nice places to gather as a family, inside and out. 10/10 would rent again!

Great Location
Location was great. Close to everything and walking distance to the beach. The only thing is the house was so hot and the fans didn’t really help. Other than that it was a great house for our family. Beautiful property!
