Beautiful View Honouliwai Hale - Island of Molokai
Big Round Ocean View Luxury Cedar Hawaii Vacation Rental Home with lots of decks, windows, air conditioning, fans, wild life, over nearby beaches and ocean pools.
*Make Angels in the Sand*
Be enveloped in an atmosphere of high ceilings in a round room with beautiful views caressed by soothing breezes and the music of the birds and the surf that will leave you relaxed and speechless--the true feeling of being on Moloka'i, the "most Hawaiian island." Watch the sunrises, sunsets, and waves breaking from the master bedroom, decks, and living areas.
From the deck, watch the birds and enjoy the beautiful, dreamlike view of blue-water Honouliwai Bay, waves crashing outside its protective reef where sea turtles make their home, with the Island of Maui, only eight miles away, looming large across the channel at the closest point between the two islands. You can see whales and dolphins jumping in the channel as they pass through the bay.
Swim in clear, shallow, gradually-deepening waters near the sandy shore between the sky and the sandy bottom. Snorkel along the beautiful reefs and look down over the reef "cliffs" into the deep blue channel. Kayak in the bay and to neighboring bays. Kids can ride the tiny waves on one side and two or three small boats can anchor on the other.
Just 200 yards along cock farms and taro fields, up the private driveway from white-sand Honouliwai beach. Relax in this serenely grand, comfortable cedarwood home, secluded on the valley bluff, surrounded by lush vegetation, including brilliant, sweetly scented plumeria and papaya trees right off the large sundeck--the fruit ripe for picking for your breakfast.
In the afternoons, watch the sunset from the deck that wraps halfway around the house, then enjoy a tranquil evening in the spacious rooms of this three-bedroom home--the hardwood floors, marble walls and counters, cedar walls and ceilings, lauhala mats and ceiling fans all add to the island atmosphere and give a warm, inviting sense of Aloha.
Take a short walk to the beaches. Swim, snorkel, or kayak and see a turtle looking back at you like a telescope. Jump off Morris Point into the deep tidal pools and lay on warm lava rocks and flat sand. Walk, jog, bike, or drive up and down the one-lane road along the ocean beaches, rocks, and mountains. Go to a "real" Hawaiian luau on Honouliwai Beach with real Hawaiians.
See actively farmed taro fields plowed by Molokai's only water buffalo "Big Foot". Take a boat tour right from Honouliwai to pristine Wailau Valley and take a jungle hike in this beautiful remote valley, catch a fish, see mountain goats, flying fish and more sea turtles.
Nestled in the heart of the East End Molokai Hawaiian Community known as Mana'e, with its own ancient sea fish pond, Honouliwai Bay at mile 20.5, is right between East Molokai's favorite surf spot, "Rock Point" and Molokai's largest and safest three to six foot-deep snorkel spot, Moanui Beach at mile 20, known as "Murphy's Beach".
Three miles to Neighborhood Store lunch counter, five miles to Pu'uohoku Ranch for horseback tours of mountains and beaches. There is the seven-mile scenic drive to Halawa Bay where you can hike to it's famous sky-high twin Falls at Mo'o'ula. Be sure to leave a gift for the mo'o (lizard) before you dive into the magnificent deep pool at the base of the falls.
