Absolutely WONDERFUL place to stay..Recommended with 10 stars!

WOW, we are all still pinching ourselves at the wonderful beauty of Moloaa Shangrila! It is a breathtaking experience into paridise! Cheryl, the owner, is an absolute doll and amazing woman. She has decorated this place (and designed and built the property) and it seems as if every inch of space has her creative touches. She has a flare for design that is most extrodinary to say the least! She is truely inspirational woman and the feel of this place is magical! You will literally feel like your world has stood still in the most beautiful place on earth! From the moment we entered the property, we were in a world of paradise. It is very calming place and very spiritually uplifting. We hardly needed to venture off because the place was so fantastic. We had all of the comforts of home and then some. It was a girls retreat with my daughter and friends, however; this would be ideal place for anyone; kids, wedding would be perfect, or we are now talking about a reunion here next year. Whether small party or large, this is the perfect place! The flowers and follage is wonderful. A small creek runs through the property and the birds are everywhere! The ocean is just a short walk and Cheryl has everything you need to snorkel, boogie board, or just lounge on matts or chairs. The fruit stand at the end of the road was a hit with us because the girls like their healthy smoothies and sandwiches. We shopped for major groceries a few minutes away in Kappa, but did pick a few items up at a local store just a few miles. We also loved going north to Princeville where the girls did a venture consisting of a hike, zip line, and kayak, ending up at a pool where they swam! It was all amazing. I recommend this to all of my friends and will be coming back for years to come. The trip was amazing and one that we will remember for a lifetime! Thank you Cheryl and Mike for your hospitality and allowing us to explore your world. -Becky, Kim, and Brittany 11-11-11

Hello fellow travelers, I am a past resident of the island of Kauai. I have been to Moloaa Shangila many many times and will be taking my boyfriend there in two days. It is his very first trip to Kauai and I am thrilled that he will be able to experience the island from such an amazing base as Moloaa Shangrila Estate (it is going to be hard to get him to leave the property!). As a past resident of the island let me share a little of Moloaa Shangrila Estate’s history with you. It started out as a simple Hawaiian home on a small plot of land surrounded by a cow pasture. With the amazing vision, hard work and literal sweat of its owner, she slowly and painstakingly turned this cow pasture into the beautiful estate you see on this page. The pictures are truly representative of its understated opulence and good taste. The houses on the property are filled with amazing Balinese carvings, art and furniture. The setting is tranquil and uber private. I would highly recommend Moloaa Shangrila Estate. It is an amazing experience.

My Husand and I just returned from our amazing wedding/honeymoon at the Shangri-La Estate. Our wedding truly could not have been set in a more magical place! From the moment you enter this beautiful home, you are transported to a whole new world! You feel like the only one, in a true paradise! The house it's self is decorated beautifully, but the grounds left us speechless. We spend hours exploring the area, and I am confident we did not see it all! Every where we looked during our 5 day stay we would discover a new gem to admire! We enjoyed the hot tub every night, picking fresh fruit, lounging by the pool, and enjoyed some ping pong tournements! We lounged with the geckos and listened to the frogs near the river. If you are looking for a true escape, this is it! Moloa'a Bay is a short walk down the road and is a beautiful bay! We were married there and had a beautiful reception on the property. Thank you so much to Cheryl and Mike for such a wonderful experience! They were very helpful! Mike came to tend to the pool and set up the fires for us. I would recommend this property for any type of event, however, weddings are stunning here! If you are taking a small family vacation or planning your dream wedding, Shangri-la is the perfect setting for it! Words can not explain the memories we will carry with us for the rest of our lives from Shangri-la! Thank you again!!

Moloa'a Shangrila is an absolutely exquisite estate. With the owner's unique and beautiful decorating, landscaping & architectural design, you feel transported to a far and away tropical dreamplace somewhere between Hawaii & Bali. Our family of five (3 children: 11, 8 & 6yrs) fell in love with this magical place! We spent endless hours exploring the grounds with its fruit trees, pools, waterfalls and running creek..bbq'd and relaxed on the lanais, made s'mores under the stars in the huge outdoor fireplace..and enjoyed the comfort and beauty of the well-equipped house. When finally stepping off of the property, Moloa'a Beach is a walk down the road, and the house is equipped with surfboards, boogieboards, sandtoys, chairs, coolers...since there are only private properties surrounding the bay, this beach is secluded and practically deserted, save for a few locals,fishermen and lucky vacationers. We are already missing Kauai and can't wait for our next visit... Thank you Cheryl for your warmest of aloha spirits and lovely piece of paradise!

Thank you for three nights in paradise. We would have stayed for a month if possible. We couldn’t have imagined a more wonderful place to be. We took my mother-in-law up to Hanalei to see it for the first time since 1940 when she stayed in the middle of one of the three cottages that were the only structures along the beach at the time. Then we had lunch at the St. Regis Resort. Between the crowded development of Hanalei and the gaudiness of the resort, it was a bit overwhelming, and my mother-in-law kept saying, “Thank goodness for Shagri-la.” She, like us, couldn’t wait to get back. You truly have created a magical place. Thank you for sharing it with us.

My sweetie and I stayed at Moloaa-Shangri la only three nights, we will come back for many more. This place is true to it's name. We stayed in the honeymoon cottage, the only bad thing about this wonderful place is that it's so hard to want to go anywhere else and explore. It's very romantic. The pictures just don't do it justice. If your looking for a great quiet place to get away from it all and have a truly romantic experience, this is it. The owner took us on a tour of the main house too, amazing, it's like going to Indonesia. Eleven beautiful acres of bliss.

We very much enjoyed our Honeymoon stay at the Shangri-La Moloa’a Estate. We stayed at the Main House and it is very unique with its architecture and décor. The home is filled with lots of vintage Asian lamps and knick knacks, with beautiful wood floors. Though the best part of the large estate are the beautiful grounds and colorful gardens, along with the obligatory chickens and geckos. The groundskeeper was very helpful getting us situated when we arrived. The Moloa’a beach is just a quick 4-5 minute walk from the estate, still close enough to hear the waves breaking from our bed at night. The Estate is located within an easy 30-45 minutes drive of most every corner of the island. The total environment made our stay on Kauai a very memorable one, much better than staying at a sterile hotel room. We hope to return soon.

50 YRS + 3 TROPICAL ISLES + 7 NIGHTS IN SHANGRILA + 1 BALI HAI RENEWAL = PRICELESS MEMORIES.

Moloaa Shangrila was our base for the last 7 nights of our 2 week, 3 island, 1st time Hawaiian trip courtesy of our son Jeffrey and his partner Jay, 4-time visitors to Hawaii, who also acted as our tour guides. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. Nothing like the usual cookie-cutter vacation accommodations and a gourmet kitchen that thrilled chef Jay. As Cheryl’s only guests that week we were lucky enough to have exclusive use of the pool and hot tub. The grounds were secluded and the Bali-decor theme made it seem as if we were on our own private island - one with every modern convenience and comfortable beds. Separate house levels assured everyone’s privacy. A very short walk took us to Moloaa Bay for beach and snorkeling. Princeville golf and spa facilities, as well as shopping in Kappa and Hanalai were only a few minutes drive. To cap the experience, we were able to renew our vows on our 50th anniversary Nov. 5, 2010 on Kee Beach at the base of Mount Makana, better known as Bali Hai in my favorite musical “South Pacific.” You can’t go wrong with Moloaa Shangrila. Mahalo, Cheryl. Thanks for the memories. Trish & Jerry Skillman New Braunfels, TX

My wife and I decided on ShangriLa for our belated honeymoon vacation. We've been to Hawaii many times but never experienced it like this - it truly is a Shangrila paradise. The photos on the website reveal some of the beauty but it is even better in real life. We simply didn't want to leave. If you want to experience real Hawaiian living without all the problems that goes along with hotels/resorts, this is it. We also found it to be ideally located on the island for our needs, centrally positioned so getting to all the places and activities we wanted was very easy. At the end of the day a private drive down into the valley by the beach to ShangriLa, away from everything. The house is extremely clean and well maintained, and the hosts are a joy to work with and very gracious. We highly recommend it!

A Tropical Fairytale Wedding

My daughter was married here in late June and we could not have picked a more idyllic or beautiful place. From the moment I booked with Cheryl months in advance I knew we had made the right choice. Cheryl was a dream to work with from the beginning to end. She helped put a yoga session together the morning of the wedding, let us come see the house on short notice and made sure we had provisions for breakfast the first morning we arrived. Our family and the groom's family took over the entire estate and had one of the best weeks of our life. The house is welcoming and beautifully decorated, the beds are comfy and the bathrooms are luxurious. The wedding guests were in awe of the magnificent house and the tropical lushness of the property. If you want a true tropical vacation book this property, you will experience the real meaning of paradise. We have been coming to Kauai for over 30 years and this was by far the best trip of them all.
