About this property

Beautiful top floor condo w/ amazing view of Papohaku Beach

Hale Kamaluhia, Hawaiian for House of Serenity is our tropical retreat on the West coast of Molokai. Our desirable second floor condo has vaulted ceilings and is in one of the few buildings in the resort that has an unobstructed view of Papohaku Beach, one of the longest white sand beaches in Hawaii.
Hale Kamaluhia is a passion of ours and we want guests to feel like they are coming to a cherished family retreat. We strive to provide most of what you might need except for food and clothing. For your convenience we have provided beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella, a small cooler, small beverage cooler, snorkel gear, tennis rackets, and binoculars for whale watching in the Winter months. You will find our kitchen fully stocked with starter coffee, tea, spices, etc.
You may read past reviews about guests renting our vehicles, but because we no longer live on Molokai, we no longer have vehicles to rent.
Mahalo for considering Hale Kamaluhia for your next getaway and we hope to see you soon.

Fantastic!

A well appointed condo in such a unique place. The space itself is well stocked and nicely laid out. The views from the comfortable lanai furniture can not be beat. The grounds are well maintained. The pool and beaches were beautiful and never over-crowded. This was our first visit to Molokai and we will most definitely be back!

Best stay!

This condo was fantastic! It was close to the lovely west side beaches which was convenient. They provided us with everything we needed besides groceries, of course. The condo was clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. This was our home away from home and we are incredibly sad to leave. Host was responsive and very helpful.

Fantastic Experience

We had a fantastic experience staying in this condo. Everything was very well organized and prepared for our visit. The location is perfect; close enough to easily walk to the pool but very quiet with an amazing ocean view. We loved gazing at the stars at night. The owners are kind and great with communication. We cannot wait for our next visit and stay in this condo.

Paradise Found

This unit was just what we were looking for. The location was ideal. The bed was very comfortable and the view was excellent! The beach accessories were much appreciated. I personally would like to have had a more comfortable chair to sit on indoors due to my back issues but we spent most of our time outside any way. This was the most relaxing and enjoyable vacation we have had! Everyone was very nice and friendly and the beings at the hot tub were great! We will definitely be returning next year!! We already can’t wait!

Your own piece of paradise

Our biggest issue was we did not realize how early the island closed now and we arrived late from Maui from California. Had I known that we planned a little different. The beach was out amazing we had it too ourselves for most of the day. We will diffinitely stay again. Mahalo.

Beautiful view and spotless accommodation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Yvette’s place! The view was breathtaking over the westcoast from the comfortable balcony with lounge chairs, in which we enjoyed incredible, star-filled night skies! The condo was spotless, had EVERYTHING we needed and even had a nice beach tote with towels all ready for our excursions. It has a nice, airy feeling and is the perfect, quiet spot to rest and relax in between island adventures. Yvette’s instructions and communications were well throughout and and we always received a quick answer when we needed it. (And the rental of her car went very smoothly and is to recommend!) If we ever make it back to Moloka’i, we would definitely want to stay again at Yvette’s condo (swim pool access inclusive!)

Hale Kamaluhia, indeed!

Hale Kamaluhia is definitely befitting of its name – calm and peaceful in every way. We appreciated the attention to detail, the tasteful décor, and the absolute all-around charm that this beautiful hale had to offer. The Ke Nani Kai resort's facilities accommodated us very nicely. We utilized all of their offerings: pool, heated whirlpool, gas BBQ area, even their tennis courts, and they have the cutest lending library! Our hosts, Mike and Yvette, were great. The communication back and forth was spot-on and we were happy to have been able to score one of their vehicles as a rental via Turo. Coordination of pick-up and drop-off was seamless. We loved every bit of our stay and wished we could’ve stayed longer. Friendly Isle, we’ll be back! A hui hou until then!

Tranquility

Our first time in Molokai. It is a beautiful and tranquil place. Enjoyed the natural beauty of the island. The condo is in a very quiet area. Well supplied, comfortable and clean. It has a good view of the beach. Yvette was very polite and responded quickly to all the questions we had regarding the condo, activities and where to get supplies. The beaches near by are beautiful although not for snorkeling. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Mahalo

We loved Mike and Yvette s place. Their attention to detail, the beautiful decor, the mornings and evening on the lanai were just what we meeded. Everyone at the complex were very welcoming. And we especially loved all the hiking close by to all of Molokia s beautiful beaches Thank you.

Spotless and comfortable

This is such an adorable condo. And it was just impeccably clean, neat and cute. The beds were both comfy, and beach supplies good. My friend and I really enjoyed staying here. I would recommend that guests bring their own food supplies.

Relaxing paradise!

We spent 2 weeks at Mike and Yvette’s condo. It was wonderful. Nicer than the pictures portray. Super clean and spacious. The complex is well maintained, great pool facilities as well. We rented the Versa for the 2 weeks which was super easy for pick up and drop off. Everyone we met was super friendly. The beaches beautiful and empty! Rarely ran into more than a handful of other beach walkers. The only disappointment was ocean too rough for swimming. The two towns were like a throwback in time, which we loved. Also highly recommend the mule ride to Kalaupapa. Well worth the money. If you like to relax and “do nothing” (read, walk, swim) then this is paradise waiting for you. If you like lots of people and activities then not so much. Highly recommend this condo.

About the host

Hosted by Yvette Carlton

Host profile image
We came to Hawaii (Oahu) from New England with the Navy back in 1989 and fell in love with the people, the island, and the climate. We were blessed to return to Oahu again in 2009, but the increasing traffic made it less enjoyable & took a toll on us. In May of 2015, we made our first visit to Molokai & immediately fell in love with the island and the people. It's like "country" in the tropics. Imagine Hawaii of the past, unspoiled country and untouched beaches, no traffic & no stoplights! It reminded us a bit of the Oahu we knew 25 years ago, but even less developed. We retired from the Air Force in 2016 and moved to Molokai full time until 2020 when we were forced to close our B&B due to government COVID restrictions. If you like lights, noise, chain stores & restaurants, construction and need constant entertainment, then Molokai may not be for you. But if you love the ocean, are looking for peace, tranquility, beauty and want to see the Hawaii of yesterday, you may never want to leave.

Why they chose this property

Molokai is an amazing place. Unless you have actually been here, it is hard to explain. It is surreal to be the only one on a beautiful pristine beach in Hawaii or to come to a stop on the road only because you want to, or because you've arrived at your destination. There are only 2 gas stations, 2 grocery stores, and a few restaurants in town. You can buy organic produce and fruit from Kumu Farms (open Tues-Fri) and grass-fed meat fresh from Moloka'i Livestock Cooperative (M-F 7:30 am - 3:00 pm). Because the closest restaurant is 20 miles away, you'll want to cook most of your meals. There are grills right at the condo to help you do just that, as well as a kitchen stocked with everything you need to prepare anything from scrambled eggs to a full hardy meal. We strive to provide everything you need to enjoy your stay and to continuously improve.

What makes this property unique

Hale Kamaluhia is not just another vacation rental, it is a passion and our 2nd home. We want our guests to feel like they are coming home so we strive to provide everything you might need except food & clothes. Our condo and Molokai offer the chance to get away from it all. Enjoy the view of Papohaku Beach from our large lanai, walk along the beautiful pristine isolated beaches, drive on roads where there are very few other travelers, listen to the sounds of nature when there are no man made noises to clutter it. Fall asleep to the sound of the wind or the waves crashing on the rocks. On Molokai, you can truly relax and unwind. Mahalo for considering our place for you next getaway.
