The Bear getting ready to Scuba Dive in Kauai!

VRBO Bear stayed here - 05/20/2008 Upon opening the front door of Hale Pali Kai and seeing the entire opposite wall of the great room wide open to the lanai, we knew we were in for a very special stay. Much of our time here was spent on the lanai, watching the changing shadows on the mountains across the valley, the cruise ships arriving and departing from the harbor, and the many surfers, snorkelers, and beachcombers below and around Kalapaki Bay.

This is pure luxury, from the upper loft bedroom with a superb pullout sofa and private bath, through the great room and kitchen, to the lower two master suites, each with a massive bathroom and private lanai. This home is designed for entertaining and comes alive in the evening when the sun goes down and the lights of the nearby resort come on. My friends and I spent most evenings chatting around the large granite-topped kitchen island or watching the sunsets from the lanai. The entertainment system is amazing, as are the flat screen TVs throughout the home.

Everything you'll want including a wide variety of music (including traditional Hawaiian) and current movies on DVD is here. The free WiFi allowed us to keep in touch with the outside world...but we mostly ignored it! We golfed, dived, and even took a helicopter tour of the island. Everything is close by and Hale Pali Kai is the perfect place for a Bear and his friends to get away from the outside world.

Signed, The VRBO Bear

  • Fabulous! We had an amazing time at this upscale,well-appointed home perched on top of a cliff overlooking the breathtaking Kalapaki bay. It was perfectly fitted for our family of five, giving us plenty of space and privacy for both 3 small children and 2 adults. It's an easy walk down to the beach, which our kids loved for boogie boarding, as well as to the Mariott grounds, which provided us with a refreshing pool to cool off in after a day at the beach. Lihue offers a great central location, allowing an easy drive to both Poipu and the north side of the island. If you're thinking of staying at a hotel, especially if you are a family, think again....you can't beat this set up or the value. Can't wait to visit again.

  • We stayed at Hali Pali Kai in Oct. of 2008, with friends who had not been to Kauai before. The accomodations were incredible and the sunsets unforgetable. The beautiful home exceeded our expectations. When we gather with our friends the topic of conversation always turns to our stay at the breathtaking Hali Pali Kai.

  • What a wonderful surprise awaited us as we entered Hale Pali Kai... Truly an amazing architectural gem that makes you feel like royalty. The lay out of the home was perfect for our family. Each bedroom area was extremely well-appointed and private with luxurious bathrooms in each. The location perched on a cliff was ideal as was Hale Pali Kai proximity to restaurants, activities, etc. The owners have done a magnificent job creating one of the most beautiful vacation homes we ever rented. Thank you for making our vacation such a memorable one! The Partee Family- Dallas, TX 5/09

  • Picture yourself in the pages of Architectural Digest, seated in the great room of this home. Now imagine the words..."Kauai's Ocean Front Home of the year" as the headline. We stayed at this stunning home in February 2009, and felt we were privileged to do so. This is not a typical rental home. This is the place to rent, only if you demand the top of the line of everything. The owners could have scrimped on appliances, as most rentals do, but they did not. Bosch dishwasher, Bosch washer and dryer, refrigerator and coffee makers are just a few of the quality upgrades that you will find here. Designer choices that you would have in your own custom estate home. Every luxury was thought of, including the pot filling faucet over the stove top. Ocean front home? How about on top of the ocean! It's like being on a cruise ship...without the room moving around! Well planned, well thought out designs of massive window- like doors to view the beauty that is Kauai, from every room. With these mammoth sized sliding glass door/windows open, your olfactory senses go wild with the perfumed air of Kauai as well as the fresh ocean breezes. We go to Kauai about twice a year, and have stayed at the Grand Hyatt and other private homes in Poipu, as well as the Westin Resort and a private home in Princeville, and must say that my husband and I greatly prefer staying here, including the location of this property. Lihue is such a perfect central spot. And after the long flight to Kauai, it's fantastic to only have to drive 5 minutes to get "home". The view of Nawilliwilli harbor with the ever changing hues of the captivating topography, and watching the cruise ships sail into port is what dreams are made of. This if the rental home for you, if you deserve the very best. The thick concrete construction between levels, provides total silence within the walls of the home. Yet, the crashing waves below, soothe your tired soul.,and gently whisper you to sleep at night. The indoor paradise of Hale Pali Kai, mirrors the slice of heaven that is Kauai. Have I said too much? Quite frankly, no. In summation, once you've stayed here, you won't want to stay anywhere else on the island. Kathleen and Joe Kobryner. Jamul, CA

  • What a wonderful experience from the moment we walked through the door into this AMAZING home! Our group of 7 has been on many wonderful vacations over the years... and have stayed in tremendous homes. I must say, this is one of the best! It is spacious, luxurious and offers the best amenities that I could imagine. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone interested in a luxurious stay in the southern part of Kauai. A bonus was the "pass" available to the Mariott. We were able to take full advantage of a beach hotel while staying in a totally separate location (within easy walking distance). If we ever make it back to the island, this is where we will stay! I have already passed along my recommendation to several friends!

  • Beautiful, modern and the perfect way to become engulfed in the Hawaiian experience. Hale Pali Kai is much more than part of a duplex. It is a vacation retreat that sets a standard the Ritz hopes to achieve. Our family from on and off the island loved its central location, and access to the Marriott facilities, beach and golf. The two master suites are huge and beautifully appointed. The loft bedroom even exceeded our expectations since it was a full private suite on its own. Stay here and to love Kauai!

  • Hale Pali Kai is first rate. The house is everything advertised and more. The home is adjacent to the Marriott Resort and for a small fee you have full access to all of the amenities of the Marriott Resort. The pictures on the web page do not fully describe how dramatically beautiful the home is and how spectacular the views are. The owner makes renting the house very easy and he quickly responds to all questions. We highly recommend Hale Pali Kai, you will not regret staying at the house and will not want to leave.

  • I had the priviledge to stay at this beautiful house and for an 11 yr. old girl It felt like I was in a caslte! The view is magnificent over looking the mountains & Kalapaki Bay. I enjoyed watching sea turtles swimming down below off the lanai and watching the surfers, paddle boarders ride the waves and boats comming into the harbor. I even went out there and cought some waves myself. The beach is great and the pool at the Marriott is a lot of fun! My mom and I spent a lot of time on the lanai watching the colorful sunsets, reading and relaxing. Hale Pali Kai is beautiful, very roomy and very comfortable. I highly recommend this place.

  • FAB-U-LOUS! My wife and I stayed at this beautiful Pali Kai home for a week and loved every minute of it. Views, views, and more views. The great room, master and guest room all overlook Nawiliwili bay, Kalapaki beach and the Marriott. The modern finishes are top notch and the bed was ultra comfortable. When we weren't sitting on the lanai in awe, we enjoyed stepping over to Kawai Lagoons Golf Course for a round (with a healthy green fee discount as a Pali Kai guest), working out and swimming at the Marriott (another super guest 'perk') and chilling on the beach (p.s. - it's kinda fun to be on the beach and hear people say, "I wonder who stays in those homes on the bluff, wow!"). Everything was in walking distance: Marriott dining, ABC grocery and the fun 'town' bars and restaurants just behind the Marriott, but be sure to get back to the lanai for sunset and a glass of wine. The owner has a complete and friendly user guide and the house has all the amenities one could hope for on a vacation. I can't over emphasize how great it is to have access to the Marriott's facilities. There is also a complimentary Marriott shuttle 'to' and 'from' the airport which is great if you don't rent a car. Going to Kauai? This is THE place. Mahalo!
