About this property

Hale Nalu: Tropical Cottage in Poipu-Walk to Beach

Scenically situated on the Green Belt pedestrian pathway, this enchanting island-style home combines the casually elegant charm of a country-plantation retreat with an ideally convenient location. Not only is it close to everything—an easy stroll to beaches and restaurants, and a short drive to myriad other South Shore attractions—but the bonus perks include guest privileges at Poipu Kai’s nearby facilities: resort-caliber swimming pool, hot tub, and tennis courts.

Inside, every hardwood-floored room is light, bright, beautifully furnished, and filled with art, from the inviting living area to the cheerful bedrooms to the impeccably equipped kitchen. There are thoughtfully curated details everywhere: vivid Hawaiian-themed paintings; ceiling fans with leaf-shaped blades; seahorse lamps; shelves adorned with sculptures, seashells, and other decorative objects; and a master bath with a dramatic Mediterranean-style soaking tub, to name a few. The attractive, many-windowed rooms flow into a large, lovely lanai that offers ample seating on lava-gray rattan furniture with indigo upholstery and throw pillows in shades of sea and sky. All in all, it’s the perfect setting for casual meals, celebrations, BBQ feasts, or leisurely relaxation.

Just a few yards beyond the main lanai and grassy backyard is Poipu’s iconic Green Belt: a pedestrian pathway that leads to idyllic beaches, appealing restaurants, and the Grand Hyatt Resort. (Bonus treat: the route winds through picturesque landscapes, with the glittering ocean never far from sight.) Slightly farther down the road are even more delights—world-class beaches, irresistible restaurants, intriguing shopping centers, exciting recreations—as well as highway access to the rest of the wondrous island of Kaua‘i, where thrilling sightseeing and unforgettable adventures beckon in every direction.

Absolutely amazing!
We couldn’t have been happier with our accommodation! Even better than the photos appear on the listing. Every room was spacious and well appointed. Location was amazing. Community pool access was better than expected as well. Few times that we contacted the the host they were helpful and responsive. Would absolutely recommend. Deserves the 5 star rating.
