Melia Kai is a private home with a sweeping view of the cobalt blue Pacific Ocean and the cascading waterfalls of Namolokama. Located on the Princeville Makai golf course, our house offers the visitor a wonderful opportunity to do just about everything - but is also a terrific place to do absolutely nothing! Visit our website (see link below) to see spectacular aerial photos of the property and surrounding area - plus interior pictures.
The house is located on the north shore of the island of Kauai, a place considered by many to be one of the most beautiful places on earth. The movie South Pacific was filmed here because the filmmakers felt it represented the ultimate Polynesian paradise.
Melia Kai looks across the Makai golf course to the ocean beyond. The spectacular views invite you to walk barefoot across the fairway to the edge of a 150-foot cliff, where you look down on waves crashing onto the lava rock below. If you watch closely, you will see turtles swimming in the coves beneath you.
You will find that Melia Kai offers the best of two worlds - the luxurious amenities of the Princeville resort and the exotic remoteness of Kauai's north shore. One minute you can be sipping a Mai Tai in a crisp summer outfit at the sumptuous Princeville Hotel, and the next you can be navigating a jungle trail in your bathing suit looking for the waterfall at the head of the Kalihiwai Valley.
Come stay the week at Melia Kai and we will insure all your money through the VRBO Carefree Guarantee. Why worry about scams when you can come to this fantastic private home, worry free and insured.

This was our first trip to Kauai and it couldn't have been better. The location and views were amazing. Melia Kai was close to everything on the north coast. The house was clean, well maintained, and very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend Melia Kai to anyone considering a stay on Kauai

We just returned from our Kauai vacation and loved it! Melia Kai was the perfect place to stay for three couples or a small family. You can't beat the price or location. We loved being on the North Shore. We were so close to the best shopping and beaches. The guys really loved being right on the golf course. Our favorite little spot, Queen's Bath, was a 5 minute walk from the house. We can't wait to come back. Thanks again!

We just stayed here September 12-17, 2011 and we both loved it. It was ideal for us to have a place of our own while we were exploring Kauai. Loved being able to walk to Queen's Bath and watch the wonderful sunsets from the patio while eating the creations we made fom all the local food purchased in nearby Hanalei. Everything exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend this rental to couples that enjoy the simple pleasures and families who want to stay in a home that is comfortable, welcoming and close to the beautiful north shore part of Kauai!

Second time staying at Melia Kai. Great location on the North end of the island right on the Makai Golf course. Great evening walks on the golf course with beautiful views of the sunset and Hanalei Bay. Great snorkel/swim Beaches are very close. We particularly like staying here because it feels like a home and NOT a hotel or a condo. It's an older mid century house and has a spacious, relaxed feeling with great light from it's large windows and high ceiling. Also, we like to cook and BBQ instead of going out for every meal and the kitchen is decent and the deck is great with a good Weber BBQ. Our King bed was very comfortable too. Not some old heap that needs to be replaced. I think this is an incredible value and I will recommend it to my friends, family and to you. Enjoy!

This house is in a gorgeous location in Princeville and has a magnificent view of the golf course and the ocean. We found beaches within walking distance and the grocery store is just a five minute drive. The owners are very kind and helpful and the house is clean and roomy. We had a GREAT time and highly recommend it!!

My family stayed at Melia Kai for 2 weeks in December. I was stressed after a long year and really needed the time to unwind and relax with the kids. We LOVED it!! We were just a short walk to Queen's bath, and located within a few minutes from many beautiful beaches. My youngest (9) learned to both snorkel and boogie board on this trip. Absolutely beautiful! We've visited Hawaii on many occasions over the years and this was the most comfortable accommodations we've had yet! There's nothing like being in a home setting. You can stay at a condo and still cook for yourself, but being in a home really makes it special. Gives you the feeling of being home. Like I said...we loved it. Can't wait to make the trip back!!

We have been coming to Hawaii almost every year since 1999. Melia Kai is about the best value in Kauai especially being right on the golf course with a beautiful ocean, mountain and golf course view. A couple minute walk to the 7th hole of the Makai Golf Course will take you to one of the most beautiful par 3's in the world and is a fantastic place to watch the sunset and sunrise from the cliffs. The view is amazing. The house itself was perfect for us. We stayed for almost 3 weeks and our daughter and her family including 3 grandkids (1 a baby), stayed with us for 1 week. We had plenty of room. The owner went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable including going out and buying a new Pack N Play for the baby. The house was well stocked and had everything we needed. The view from the living room and deck were great. We watched the albatross everyday from the house and the whales from the cliff. The only negative I can say about the house is that 2 of the 3 bedrooms are a little on the small size to some. To us it was no inconvience at all and I would recommend this house to anyone from a couple to 6 people. We want to vacation in Hawaii in the next year or two and plan on staying here again.

The north shore is for us the most beautiful part of the island, Princeville is the most beautiful area on the north shore, and the house and its location have to be one of the best in Princeville! There are many places to see and many activities to enjoy , but it was difficult to leave the house each morning because of the incredible mountain and ocean views and unusual and beautiful birds that delighted us just from the windows and decks; all of that kept tugging us and saying, "Stay, stay." The home itself is charming and provides all that is needed and then some for a very comfortable vacation. We most certainly will recommend this property to anyone who plans to visit Kauai.

We rented this property for 10 days during September. There were six adults and this fit us perfectly. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. It is also a short walk to Queens Bath and under a mile to Hidden Beach which had amazing snorkeling. The sunsets from the back deck are such an added bonus of this property and the owner was very easy to deal with. We would absolutely book this property again.
