Lovely 2 bdr 2 bath condo in prestigious Paniolo Hale, 4min walk to Kepuhi Beach

There is a place in the world where time seems to have stopped, where simplicity rules, where peace of mind can be found. Welcome to Molokai, the most Hawaiian of all the islands.

Here on Molokai, one can’t help but be allured by the ruggedness of the world’s largest sea cliffs towering above crystal clear, turquoise waters, or the gentle stretches of untamed beaches, including the second longest beach in Hawaii.

Take a leisurely drive, hike or ride a pack animal through misty rainforests, to the silvery waterfalls, or through royal coconut groves. Watch out for the wild spotted deer, Molokai is a place where authenticity reigns supreme, the only main island in which native Hawaiians are the majority - only 7,000 people live on the island. You will find a warm welcome and friendly conversation among the locals and delight in their stories reaching generations back. See how National Geographic rated it #6 out of 111 islands in an article as it was published in the November/December 2006 issue of National Geographic Traveler Read Article.

Come discover this little corner of the planet and lose yourself in its splendid beauty…or perhaps more accurately, find yourself.
Paniolo Hale is an intimate cluster of condominiums located on the sunset rich west end of Molokai. Densely landscaped and quietly private, the grounds are a tropical garden. The sounds of chirping birds, whistling trade winds and ocean waves will carry you into tranquility. Truly a place of seclusion at its best.

Our two-bedroom end unit, with 1900 square feet, sleeps five, is newly decorated and enjoys garden and partial ocean views. Completely redecorated and furnished, the two-level, two bedroom, two bath condo features a downstairs living room with stereo/CD player, cable television and VCR/DVD player with movies, dining room, a large lanai wrapping completely around two sides, fully equipped kitchen, a downstairs bedroom with two double beds and TV, and full bath. Upstairs is a spacious master bedroom with king-size bed, TV, full master bath and private sundeck. All linens are furnished, as well as boogey boards, snorkel equipment, and beach mats and other amenities.

Within the grounds of Paniolo Hale is an inviting swimming pool, an outdoor shower, and several outdoor grills and dining areas. Unfortunately the Kaluakoi golf course that is directly adjacent to Paniolo Hale has closed along with the Molokai Ranch Hotel. The picturesque shoreline is just steps away where you can enjoy the solitude of the many sugar-sand beaches, including Hawaii’s second longest sand beach, and the breathtaking sunset views famous to the islands.

Relaxing out of the way Hawaiian Hale

Wonderful Family Get Away
This trip was perfect. The location of the house was about 25 min from town but had a kitchen to cook in and great space for hanging out. The beach is a quick walk and everyone was so friendly. I wouldn't have changed a thing. We have kids ranging from 8-14 and everyone loved it.

This property was spacious and a great getaway! So close to the beaches in a beautifully secluded part of the island this property was amazing. The wraparound lanai area was perfect for outdoor dining and wonderful sunsets. The rooms were spacious and clean. Would definitely go back again!!

Unwinding on Molokai
We love Molokai! This property has been great for our family of 4 as it is very spacious and in a quiet setting. The condo has a very "aloha" feel and you can feel the love that has been shared here in the past. We look forward to returning soon.

Quiet and Relaxing
Internet connection very sketchy even after moving to different areas of house. Sporadic incoming messages and email every few hours beginning at 5:30pm until midnight. Upstairs shower had no hot water. Also no instructions for complicated tv. So due to no WiFi we were cut off from everything. Other than that we enjoyed celebrating 82yo birthday . It is not a place for seniors. Mahalo !

Relax in paradise.
We have rented in this complex before and enjoyed both times. If you seek a laid back relaxing vacation this hits the spot. This unit was well equipped . I love to cook and the kitchen had everything. When we went on outings there were beach chairs, coolers and other extras that we took along.. The unit itself is close to many beaches which you can walk to, but we also loaded up our rental vehicle when exploring the island. We would recommend this unit to everyone seeking excellent accomodation on an island that seems frozen in time.

Great townhouse
My entire family loved this place. It has a great wrap around screened in porch where we hung out and ate all of our meals. The place was very well equipped. Great for cooking meals for the entire family. The complex is quite nice with beautiful grounds and a nice pool. There are out door grills and the one next to the pool works better. This place is a very short walk to the beach with some good swimming nearby. The only downside of this property is that it is a 30 min drive to the main town, which has the restaurants and grocery stores. Nevertheless, I would stay here again if I return to Molokai.

Awesome setting
Condo located in beautifully landscaped and tended complex. It has a very clean and nice swimming area. Folks there were very friendly and the whole place very quiet. The beach is about a 5 minute walk down a slight hill. The unit was nice but slightly dated. It has a wonderful lanai that wraps around 2 sides and is fully screened. A few things like fans only worked at one speed (full speed) and lights (a couple would not come on). The beds were good and the bathrooms very roomy. The upper unit got quite warm in the heat of the day but cooled down enough for sleeping. All in all we enjoyed our stay and enjoyed staying at this unit. The owner was very helpful and responsive.

A serene Molokai experience
We had a wonderful time at this lovely Island home. It provided a perfect space for our little family. It was very authentically Hawaiian and we truly loved staying here. The condo was very well equipped and we were all happy to have such a spacious place to stay. There was much to appreciate about our stay. We loved the tranquility of Panioli Hale. Our children loved having access to the beautiful pool area and we all fell in love with the large screened in lanai. It was a perfect place for am yoga and we really enjoyed the daybed on the lanai. Wow! A great place to read and just relax. We also appreciated that the owners had numerous board games, books and movies for us all to enjoy. We cant wait to return to this fabulous condo again. It was perfect for our family and we hated to leave. Thank you Laura for sharing your beautiful Island home with us, we could feel the love and Ohana here. Brian and Amanda

Almost like living in a treehouse!
This corner unit at Paniolo Hale is almost like being outside in a treehouse! There's several large trees on the property, so it feels almost like you're right in the middle of them. The large wrap around lanai (porch) is screened in, so there's no need to worry about bugs, birds, etc., coming into the house. There's several chairs, a dining table, and even a bed out there, perfect for relaxing and listening to the birds. We figured out that the talkative ones are called Frankies. There also were myna birds and even wild turkeys! There are several beaches within walking distance from the condo. My son tried fishing, but didn't get any bites. There's also a surf spot with nice waves. Paniolo Hale is the perfect place to relax. So quiet, except for the bird chatter and ocean waves! Hope to be back soon.

Not well maintained
B building has the best location for trade winds wonderfully ventilating this unit and feeling removed from the others. Being an end unit is also a plus. Great pool, frequently all to ourselves, well done paintings of fish on the bottom giving the illusion that they're there. The first floor has a one step level change which might be trouble for some people. The maintenance of this unit is not up to what I've seen in other VRBO units: needs painting, some doors need repairs or replacing, the main bedroom closet was piled with stuff that I had to remove just to be able to hang things in it, one smoke detector out of three looks functional, switches for lights and fans are very hard to know what's what. I've owned rentals, so I always care about maintenance. Your past reviews are very positive, so visitors do love being there, that's always good to hear about Hawai'i and Molokai'i.

Best Vacation Rental We've Ever Stayed In... EVER
My husband and I, along with our two daughters ages 6 and 10 recently visited Molokai in August of 2019 for our first time and to say that we enjoyed our stay is an understatement. A lot of people questioned us when we told them we were planning to visit Molokai, which had us wondering if we had made the right choice, however from the moment we stepped into our vacation rental we just knew it was going to be the best vacation ever. The condo had everything we could need and more. We had some issues with cable and the wifi was out but we didn't go to Molokai to watch tv and browse the internet, in fact being "off the grid" ended up being the best thing that could have happened to us. Laura did say that she would have the wifi fixed and I'm sure she did. We utilized the large stereo and great collection of cd's (particularly Molokai Now and The Beach Boys) the entire time as we played Uno and Go Fish with our kids on the incredible screened in Lanai. We also loved taking walks to what we learned was the best beach on the island. The pool situation was a bit disappointing, there is a permanent sign outside the entry that states "Bees in pool area, swim at your own risk" to which we assumed was really no big deal however after spending some time using the pool skimmer to remove all of the bees from the pool we began to become swarmed and realize that the sign was no joke and we had to leave, without even being able to put a foot in the water. We did however learn that the condo next door had a lovely pool area over looking the ocean and made that our resident pool, we figured they would understand, however no one ever questioned us. Even with the bee issue, we were certain that after our exploring of the island and the other condo communities, this one really was the very best. We spent a week in this condo and then moved over to the Hyatt Regency on Maui for a week, at the end of our vacation we asked our daughters what their favorite part of the entire trip was they both said Molokai and when we asked what part of Molokai did you like the most they both answered "our home". If that doesn't tell you this really is the very best of the best, I don't know what will.

A Great Spot for a Unique Sleep
This unit has a large family room area with a pass through to the kitchen and a large lanai that wraps around the property with large doors that we never closed when we were there. It was very comfortable. It may sound funny, but the beds were a real highlight. Not only were they very comfortable, but there was a double bed outside on the screened-in lanai. I slept there every night and woke up with the birds when the sun rose. It was so unique and so great. The bottom bedroom has 2 beds in it while the upstairs has a king. The upstairs gets hotter during the day, but there is a portable a/c unit in that room that helps cool it down a bit for the hot nights. We loved this place and would gladly come back.
