Elegant Secluded Beach Estate Plantation in Moloaa Bay, Hi Kauai TVR 4180

Looking for an EXPERIENCE different than what the resorts provide? Woodrose Plantation includes a breathtaking home nestled on two and one-half acres of lush, botanical, and fruit gardens in pristine Moloaa Bay. Some of the varieties of fruits are listed below. (This fruit has been sold to markets, health food stores, and restaurants for years). A very private beach is just steps from your back door. (actually, about 1500'or 5 min walk with small children)
This plantation-style home, is a dream, with high vaulted ceilings and views from every window. Hot water comes from energy-efficient Solar generated water heaters. The estate owners make this unique home available when owners are not on the island. Beautiful copper gate protecting property privacy, Enjoy your delicious fresh fruit (all you can eat that is in season) from 100s of tropical trees as you bask on spacious covered decks, listening to the waves and enjoy ocean breezes. You might try Starfruit, three varieties of Avocados, Oranges, three varieties of Papayas, four varieties of Bananas, Mangos, two varieties of Lemons, Limes, Tangelos, Tangerines, Ademoyas, Figs, Cheremoyas, Cream Apples, Passion fruit, Strawberry Guava, Surinam Cherries, Pomelos, Lychees, Coconuts, pomegranates, two varieties of pineapples and two varieties of Grapefruit. Some fruits take up to 2 years to propagate such as pineapples. You will find 100s of rare, exotic flowers including orchids, heliconias, anthuriums, plumeria, red, pink, blue, white, yellow ginger, wood roses, and gardenias, to adorn your tables, make flower leis, or just enjoy in your yard. You may eat and use all of the fruit and flowers you like for your personal use. (Woodrose makes no guarantee of any fruits or flowers being available at any given time due to seasons and other uncontrollable causes). Woodrose Plantation is a licensed rental property. TVR/NCU #4180 (for emergencies call 808-320-0363)
Moloaa Bay is one of the most private bays on the island. There is fun for all ages on the exposed reefs and tide pools, the sandy beaches, snorkeling, surfing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, or roasting marshmallows on fire at the beach when you are not picking fresh fruit or flowers and just want a rest. There is shade at the beach (large trees), for those with fair skin and protected areas for small children.
Our home has large bedrooms with beautiful, rare, hardwood floors, and hand-carved teak accent furniture make this 'fruit and flower picking' an experience to talk about for a lifetime. You will have an experience like never before while staying in this 'farmers market buffet' plantation. It is Very Private and out of view. Close to town, shopping, movies, restaurants, etc. Because you are in the "jungle" of Kauai you may be visited by a friendly gecko or two. Although we spray our Plantation its impossible to keep every ant and bug in nature and out of the house. We do our best but unlike resorts that are not located in secluded areas it is an impossible task and you may see some of these too. Woodrose is our family home, which means it is a home, not a resort with 24 hour people to fix the unknown item needed repair. We act as soon as we are made aware of anything broken but this is an island home and repairmen are not as available as you may like. We ask for patience in the unfortunate case something were to break.
Being close to the beach means that we are located in a Tsunami zone. In the case of a Tsunami take Moloaa road up to Koolau where you are out of the Tsunami zone.

Peaceful, close to the beach, and clean
We had such an amazing stay at this home. The kitchen had many cooking utensils, knives, pots and pans. We were able to easily cook out meals when we stayed at home. The property is full of numerous fruits we picked and enjoyed. The beach is a short walk and the place does have a supply of beach chairs and towels. The beds were comfortable and nicely fit our group of five adults. We would love to stay again in the future soon!

Great location and responsive host
The best things about this home are the great location just a quarter-mile from Moloaa beach, the wonderful secluded grounds and all the fruit trees, and Tiffany, the highly responsive host. We found the beds in the 3 bedrooms comfortable but felt the house was a bit run down.

A treat of a retreat
A secluded get-a-way with a short walk to an uncrowded beach. My recommendation for future guests is to spend late afternoons out on the covered deck, if you're not out adventuring, as the house can get quite toasty at this time. Our stay was lovely, lots of family time.

Incredible property by the beach!
We stayed here 10/11-16 and really enjoyed this property! The pics represent it exactly and the home is on a huge plantation surrounded by fruit trees and huge coconut palms. We were able to enjoy Oranges, Mangoes, Limes, Grapefruit, Avocado's and Coconuts (machete provided!). We stocked up on groceries for the kitchen. There aren’t any stores close by, so recommend grabbing supplies on your way. There is a Keurig and coffee maker provided, and more! There are 3 bedrooms and 2 have their own bathroom. A 3rd bathroom is in between 2 bedrooms. There is a loft above living room with Queen bed. There is a washer/dryer that came in handy! There is a Smart TV in living room, bedrooms do not have a TV. There is no AC, all rooms have ceiling fans and some portable fans. We kept cool enough at night with all the fans. You will hear Roosters most the time and there are Geckos that roam the outside decks and sometimes come indoors. It’s a tropical location, Critters included! It’s a very quiet area otherwise. Moloaa beach is a short walk and quite secluded. We only saw a few others there when we went, it was amazing! We swam and snorkeled. Bring water shoes! There are beach toys, chairs and snorkel gear provided. If you’re looking for a quiet, secluded area in a tropical paradise, with resident critters, this is it! We all loved it! Host was very nice and replies to all inquiries quickly!!

Worth it! Great house & secluded beach!
Our group of five had an incredible stay here! Tiffany’s house is fantastic. 3 king beds, a loft room and 3 bathrooms make it very comfortable. The great room with high ceilings and panoramic windows + wrap around porch is perfect for hanging out. The property is very secluded with plenty of fruit during our stay. Tiffany provides plenty of beach chair, umbrellas, 3 sets of snorkel gear, and beach toys which was a great bonus. The kitchen was well stocked and a washer/dryer is included. The beach is less than a 5 minute walk and is very secluded. Great swimming with a few snorkel reefs. Felt more like a private beach than because of the limited parking. 20-30 minutes Hanalei for dinners out and even closer to other small towns. Within 5-45 minutes or every north shore beach. Would highly recommend!

Wonderful, natural and special
The property was well-kept and uniquely situated on a beautiful tract of garden and land, surrounded by fruit trees and other flowering plants. The beach was about a 5 to 10 minute walk away and felt very exclusive compared to many of the crowded beaches in Kauai. I enjoyed the lack of air-conditioning, since the house was well ventilated with screening and fans, but some folks may get a bit uncomfortable. I wish we could’ve stayed much longer.

Large, great place to stay for groups
We had 6 people staying here and there was more than enough space for all of us. We enjoyed the closeness to the beach (about 10-15 minute walk) and fruit trees. There was only lemon, limes, and oranges ripe. There was more than enough beach equipment. It is a bit of drive from the airport and any grocery stores. And we got ate by mosquitos which prevented us from opening the windows to cool in down (no AC, but lots of fan). I would highly recommend for groups or anyone looking for a quieter area than the up and busy areas of Hawaii. The host is extremely helpful and fast to respond!

Beautiful location. Needs improvement.
Greeted upon arrival with overflowing garbage can and 5 bags of garbage next to the drive way as we pulled in. The house was not clean. The additional room beyond the laundry looked as if it had not been dusted in years. Some ceiling fans were gone, loose toilet, and other problems just made it a less than nice experience. Property manager was responsive but it’s clear they’re not as engaged with the cleaning/upkeep of the property. I feel as if the cleaning fee should have been refunded because we left the house cleaner than how we found it. For as much as is charged, the property needs better upkeep. There were broken or removed fixtures, etc. The main living room and two main rooms/bathrooms were nice but the house in general was very dusty and not clean. This trip was for a 50th wedding anniversary for my parents and having them worry about roaches was not nice. I’m not a picky person but this was beyond acceptable, especially for the price and cleaning fee. The property manager did offer to send the cleaner back in but it would have required interrupting our stay so we did a lot of cleaning ourselves. We stayed next door at Skippers years before and it was completely different experience. We came back to the area because it’s a nice getaway but we needed more space this trip. The property would be a great place with some money invested in fixing/replacing some items and getting a better cleaning crew. That being said, it is a peaceful location.

Great fruit; nice house
We stayed in a condo on the south shore for a few days before this. Staying here was so much more relaxing. Beach: walkable with great snorkeling (right side), great and safe kid swimming during high waves (left side), and sees little use since there isn’t much parking. Not great for surfing or boogie boarding. Property: amazing fruit trees but most weren’t ripe. We enjoyed what we was ripe. The grounds are maintained but have an air of it being just the minimum. It has the feel of a place that was once lived and is now slowly going wild. Location: easy to get to and off the beaten track. Quiet street. Not super close to anything other than it’s own beach. We spent most of our time at the beach but if you are looking spend daily time in Hanelei this is a bit far. House: overall the house has a feeling similar to the grounds: was loved and is slowly going downhill. With that in mind we greatly enjoyed it. Wonderful porch. Kitchen is sufficient. Plenty of fans to keep cool and nice cross breezes with the windows. The two bedrooms and bathrooms in the main part of the house were nicely done. The third bedroom and bath in the lower level had a feeling of being an after thought and weren’t in great condition. We did get to escort a large centipede and a few cockroaches out of the house but this is to be expected for a place in the rural setting. Amenities: there are a ton of beach toys, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels and mats. We added another biggie board and two kids scooters for going to the beach. Overall: it was very relaxing and we enjoyed it. Will we be back? We would weigh our options. We would come back if the price was right.

About the host

Hosted by Tiffany Burbidge

Host profile image
I am the daughter of the owner and manage the property. My father built the home and I have been traveling there for 32 years multiple times a year. I love Kauai and Moloaa is a piece of heaven for me. Woodrose Plantation has become a part of my family. I have 5 children and have been married for 33 years. We vacation here every summer for a month or more. This is truly a home away from home. My home is in Utah where I love to ski in the winter and escape to Kauai when the cold is dragging on.

Why they chose this property

Large beautifully landscaped property with many fruit trees for our use combined with rare and beautiful Plantation Architecture and modern amenities yet green and clean is rare. Proximity to beach and ocean yet enough distance to be safe for families with small children is also hard to find. Sufficient distance from noisy pounding surf in winter yet close enough to feel fresh breezes and hear ocean music requires the perfect distance to the beach. The privacy of this Beach makes it safer and devoid of crowds with trees for shade when we've had enough sun.

What makes this property unique

Moloaa is unique in that it is located in a banana belt and when it is raining in Princeville it is often still sunny in our little bay. We are in a semi-private bay and there is not much parking which makes it less crowded. We have many fruits and a great road to run or bike or walk up to the fruit stand. You can pick wild strawberry guava and passion fruit on your way. Moloaa is truly unlike any other place I have been and if you like to be away from the business of life this is a wonderful place to come.
