It is a very beautiful setting and the grounds are extremely lovely cultivated Hawaiian gardens. We saw a wild pig the first day we were there with her two little babies. Our hut was decorated in a Chinese theme and a ceramic dragon overlooked our room keeping us safe at night. The room is a little aged and a few things are rusty from the sea air, which I'm assuming is unavoidable due to how close it is to the ocean. It is slightly rustic accommodations, meaning there is window with screens for airflow rather than air conditioning. But there is a full bathroom and a kitchen without any cooking capabilities. But a sink and cupboards with the basics stocked and a fridge and microwave. You can see the ocean from the bed and you can hear the crashing waves day and night. There is bird song all day and bugs join in at night. It was very peaceful and quiet. We were able to go to a black sand beach nearby that was beautiful but had powerful rough waves and we saw about 20 dolphins jumping and playing in the water. There was a specific type of people in the area, a sort of new age hippie thing going on. The black sand beach nearby is a clothing optional beach but we went in the morning and everyone was clothed. But if yoga, vegan, pagan vibes are your vibes, this place is the spot. Very beautiful, peaceful, and quiet. Also quite remote, so be aware. Not much in the form of amenities. There is an outdoor shower that was really cool to use.

We were so lucky to find this lovely place while the tsunami alert was in place. The people were so welcoming and helpful. The setting is delightful and the sound of the birds is so peaceful.

This is my second time I wanted to show my granddaughter why her Nana is moving to Hawaii and this is one of the places she fell in love with her. I fell in love with the place has been renovated, so it’s very shiny and clean, but only takes secondsplace when it comes to the view always moving. Unpredictable and so much marine life this time we saw dolphins and turtles. The Dolphins were showing off. I’d like to share some of the pictures of this home and I must say the pictures do not do it justice! Mahalo

May be one of the best places I’ve stayed at. I was able to relax, and feel at peace. The cottage was comfortable, clean and had a well set up kitchen, three lanai and lovely decor. The beauty of the surroundings was wonderful; trees, plants, ocean, and our own good luck gecko:). The owners were kind and respectful of our time there. Putting my phone away for a bit, other than taking photos also increased my joy. Thank you David and ClayWe hope to be back again soon!

We loved our stay at Kehena house! We were greeted by Stephen when we arrived and given a quick tour. They were hosting a Pride potluck that day and he kindly invited us to come eat and join in as guests of the house. Everyone we met was friendly and we felt safe to be ourselves. In the room, there was a list of unique weekly activities and opportunities near by, which made the experience feel even more welcoming. The property is *amazing*. Might as well be a mini botanical gardens between the flowers, fawna, and the fruit trees. You can tell its cared for, but not obsessively manicured, a natural look. The inside of the house looks better than the pictures, perfectly clean. Thoughtful touches as well. I selected the room that is more exposed to the outside night noises, and ear plugs were provided (i didnt need them, I enjoyed the experience). There is a house cat, but she minds to herself and was friendly when approached. I enjoyed the serenity of the outdoor shower one morning. It was so peaceful, great water pressure too. The bathtub available is deep and looked great for soaking tired traveler muscles, but I didnt use it. We did walk down to the beach. There is no specific easy path down, but there are some trails and it wasnt too difficult. The water was way too rough to get in when we visited, but we got some great pics. I plan to stay here again next time I visit Hawaii.

My family of six had a wonderful stay at Kai Malolo. The location is one of a kind and having the pool was an added bonus. We really liked being away from everything, but not being too far of a drive to get something that you might need. I thought a house off the grid would be a little hard to relax and enjoy, especially when reading the house instructions about how to restart the generator if the batteries were empty, but if we weren’t told, we wouldn’t have known we were off the grid. And having the AC - at least in the family room- was marvelous!!! We rented houses on four of the islands on this trip, and this one was one of the best, although I would prefer working with the owner rather than a rental agent as in this case. Terry was very thorough but I thought I might have to get a lawyer to help me understand the many pages of the rental agreement that I has to sign. But we had everything we needed. The appliances may be a little past their prime - a few things had a hand written note of them to show that they were not working (the microwave and freezer in the kitchen for example). But they had replacements on other counters and/or in different rooms, and we didn’t feel like we were lacking anything. The record player/phonograph would not power on, but who needs that kind of entertainment when you can enjoy the wonderful sounds of the ocean just outside. All in all, it was a wonderful location with a well designed home that allowed my family greatly enjoyed!!
