Cottage 1B Kepuhi Beach Resort Molokai- Awesome Ocean Views from Lovely Cottage

Enjoy watching the video tour!
It is on YouTube Molokai 1B Kepuhi!
Our wonderful cottage is located just steps from the pristine white sand beaches on Molokai's west end. We have stunning ocean and sunset views of Kepuhi Beach even from inside the cottage.

The cottage is in one of the 8 duplex type larger units in Kepuhi Beach Resort. It is a side by side unit with a private entrance and lanai.

Molokai is a quiet island that is only a short flight from the islands of Oahu or Maui. You won't find a more private, beautiful paradise in this resort or most resorts in Hawaii, especially this close to the ocean!

Our guests are blown away by the spectacular ocean views and surf sounds. The spacious lanai is shaded and wind protected, both perfect for relaxing and dining. Beautiful Kepuhi Beach offers a great surf spot in the winter months, and a calm, snorkeling and swimming spot in the other months. No driving necessary to enjoy watching surfers, spotting whales or green sea turtles, monk seals or beach combing.

For parties of 2-4 adults, this spacious cottage provides the all the comforts of home to meet your vacation needs.

Featuring island decor, it has a casual open interior layout with a spacious kitchen, dining area, and living area with high ceilings, and a flatscreen television.

The lovely large private master bedroom has a sliding wall to separate it from the living area or can be open for full cottage and ocean breezes. Enjoy the ocean view from the California King bed.

A large separate double vanity area and huge mirrored closet has room for your clothing, luggage and the beach chairs, cooler and pool toys.

The bathroom is separate from the vanity with a pocket door for privacy, a toilet, a standing shower, and new full-size stacking washer and dryer for your convenience.

A spiral stair takes you to the generous loft bedroom with a queen size bed and open views of the cottage.

There are ventilated screens and ceiling fans throughout the cottage, as no AC is available in this resort.

The great room opens to the oceanfront covered lanai with dining and lounging furniture provided.

The kitchen is well stocked with all your cookware, utensils, crockpot, rice cooker, blender, coffee maker and dining needs.

We provide beach towels, beach chairs, beach bag and a cooler. There is a small convenience store just beyond our parking lot with food , souvenirs and sundries. It is conveniently open from 9am til 5 pm daily.

Kepuhi Beach Resort was built in the late 70's. It used to be a Sheraton Resort with a golf course, restaurant, and several buildings that were never occupied given the small tourism trade on the island. Since the mid 2000's an active homeowners group of about 150 units have maintained the privately owned individual units and the pool, with community grills and picnic tables in the courtyard area. The property landscaping around the active units are well maintained by our staff. Despite the unused portions of the old resort, the incredible beauty of this area so very close to the ocean is what makes it such a special place to visit.

Come stay with us! You simply will not find a more wonderful island vacation retreat on Molokai!

Calm and with pretty sunsets

The house was equipped with everything we needed, there even were a new washing machine and dryer including detergent. The best thing was to see and hear the ocean so close by. The beach resort around it is mostly run down, but the cottage is a jewel within. There even was a pool and a small store in the vicinity. For our family of 4 it was the perfect getaway on this lovely quiet island.

Absolutley the best cottage on the west side

This is going to be my go to cottage every year when visiting Molokai. The inside is perfectly furnished with a total of 3 beds to sleep on. Restrooms were clean and available washers and dryer to clean your clothes. The kitchen was well stocked with common goods and items. A very important part of the cottage that I enjoyed was something that most people don't think here on Molokai. During the day its gets hot there on Molokai, the patio stays fully shaded the whole day and the trades winds blow straight on there. It has a beautiful view from the patio of the ocean and the surf break. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone visiting this beautiful island.

Fantastic Oceanside condo

Fantastic oceanfront condo on Molokai. Perfect amenities. Complete with ice packs, cooler bags, beach chairs, towels. Lanai had great views and nice patio furniture. Washer and dryer were very handy. Adequate amount of fans and windows that open to get air flow. We loved our stay and couldn’t have asked for a better vacation spot. Access to pool and several beaches. We could see surfers and axis deer and turkeys daily. The area used to be a fully functional resort but now many buildings are vacant and forlorn looking. However there is still some activity but minimal tourists. Great secluded place with a general store within walking distance by the pool if you forgot any basic essentials.

Perfect location to get away from it ALL.

First of all I've been coming back every year for many years now to this rental and there is reason for this. From the check in to check out everything was just as expected. Home was clean and stocked. All supplies and aplliances that we needed was availible. Beds were clean and confortable, bathrooms were clean also. A big plus was the afternoon shade. The patio is always in the shade even during the mid afternoon sun. Its always cool and the trade winds were there to help. Do I recommend this property for rent? Yes. Will I be back next year? Yes

The view is to die for

It’s a lovely cottage and is well supplied, however, the cottage needed to be cleaned. There was dust as well as lots of dead bugs on most of the tables. Also, even though there was usually a wonderful breeze, we weren’t able to take advantage of it to cool the house because most of the doors leading out to the lanai were either painted shut (exterior doors) or didn’t work (the bottom rows of windows) which made for some uncomfortable days. Despite the issues above, my husband, daughter and I had a good time. Probably the one most exciting thing we found was that the old building down on the beach that blocked the views was gone!! We had heard that it was supposed to be demolished at some point but we couldn’t find any info that it was gone. Now the cottages have unobstructed views of the ocean. Game changer! Kathy, all the renovation work you had done was lovely. Molly

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Oct, 2022
Very sorry hear that. We strive to do a last minute sweep up after a bug spray and wind event. Our cottage flow through ventilation usually works quite well if upper kitchen louvers and interior doors are open, since there are some screens on the lower lanai doors. The plexiglass in some of the lower lanai areas has done a great job keeping the pesky rodents out but does cut down on some of the flow through air. This fall has been quite warm.

Amaaaazing location and views!!

This was our first trip to Molokai and our very best Hawaiian vacation ever after having visited all of the other islands multiple times. It simply defies belief that there is a place this beautiful that is not overcrowded! We chose to take in a few of the islands activities like snorkeling, a culture hike, sea kayaking, and boating to the inaccessible north side of the island. But honestly it was difficult to make the choice to leave the beautiful shady lanai with the sound of breaking waves and incredible sunrise and sunset views. There are stunning beaches to walk and swim in just in front of the house but also to the north and south of the location. There is a small store on site that will cover almost any need in pinch, and a lovely pool with swaying palms and a view of the ocean. You will have all this to share with only a handful of other people. It was heaven for us! But if you are looking for high end shopping, restaurants, and luxurious marble swathed lobbies, this is not your place. It is remote, and shares the same grounds as an old Sheraton that was shut down long ago. But the cottage itself is well appointed in terms of kitchen gear and art, and was very homey and comfortable for the three of us. We are already planning our next trip back as I am not sure I want to stay anywhere else in Hawaii.

Some Ups and Downs

We recently stayed at this unit after a week long wedding event in Kauai. We have been to the islands many time but never to Molokai. While I had read previous reviews of the "vacant" buildings nearby, I was unprepared to actually see just how dilapidated these buildings are. It was dark when we arrived so I'll touch on these later. There is a small parking area and a short path to get to this unit. There is a rusted, run down fence around this area. But knowing that we would be close to the beach, we forged on. Once inside the unit we had to deal with a large island roach crawling up the living room wall and another scurrying around inside the shower stall. Once my husband took care of them, he then had to deal with a rodent that was sitting on the mat in the living room. I get it, there are island bugs etc...but in all of my years of visiting, I've never had to deal with this problem. We were provided with a local contact person in case we had any problems etc.... I texted this woman the next day to report what we had to deal with the night before. She responded that she hopes we do not have any more of these "yucky moments". Now that it was daylight, we were now able to take in our surrounding area. The beach is to the right of this unit and the water view is great. However, there is an abandoned two-unit structure in front of our unit. This unit sits right on the beach and the deck has fallen onto the beach. There is graffiti on the building and rotted boards over the windows etc... There are several other abandoned buildings surrounding our unit as well. One is quite large with many units that sits behind this unit. It is unsettling at night when you return and you see these buildings completely dark and looming. It's like being in episode of "Lost". I've read the owner "Kathy's" response to other reviewers about these buildings. She does a great job of deflecting and denying that this is as severe as it is. I have no agenda not to tell the truth so future renters, make your own choice. I will say that the unit itself is quite nice. It has a well equipped kitchen etc... There are sliding doors in the bedroom area but they cannot be opened. There is a sign that says this is for "safety" and to "keep rodents out". This whole area was owned by a hotel chain. There are other abandoned buildings on the property including a restaurant, clubhouse and other units. Sorry to say we would not rent here again.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr, 2020
Thank you for staying at our cottage. We understand that our piece of Hawaiian paradise is not for everyone. Molokai is a more adventurous island, and while that is what attracts many people to it in the first place, it has some downsides. We are a single-unit owner within a resort. Our homeowners association works hard to keep the active parts of the resort looking safe and landscaped nicely, but the association does not own the empty buildings and fencing. Your complaints are valid, and rest assured we battle with those owners constantly to upgrade and maintain areas not in use. Despite there being some abandoned buildings, all areas that our guests interact with are well cared for. You may walk past an old building, or an old fence. The old surf shack is awaiting permit to be taken down. It has a long history of being a gathering place for the native Hawaiians to enjoy the beach, surfing and picnicking. We love watching the surfers and have met many wonderful people on the beach. That being said, most of our renters (as evident by our other outstanding reviews) can see beyond the imperfections to the beautiful vast ocean view, the amazing proximity to the beach and lovely sounds of the surf, and very much enjoy their stay. We do apologize for the mouse. The resort has an open-air design and because we cannot make changes to the external structure of our cottage, we do make great efforts to critter-proof our cottage. This is the only mouse sighting this year, and when our unit is not occupied, we set traps out. We do an annual check for entry holes and seal them when we live there for several months each year. With regards to the bedroom lanai door, it is locked for the very reason of keeping those unwanted critters out of the cottage, and we have had problems with renters consistently leaving those doors open in the past. As for the cockroaches, you'd be hard pressed to stay anywhere on the island of Molokai without running into a couple.

Lovely beachside location

Molokai is not for everyone, but for a chill time on a lively bit of beach, this place is perfect. The kitchen is outfitted better than the average — a good thing since it is 20 minutes to the nearest restaurant. The lenai is perfect and catches the ocean breezes. Bed and sitting area are comfortable. Wi-Fi is reliable. We had a very nice time. The setting is slightly weird in that the surrounding resort is halfway abandoned, but our eyes were definitely focused beachward.

Magic on Molokai

My wife and I had a magical experience while staying here and on Molokai. Molokai is not a typical Hawaiian island or tourist destination but if it is your style, stay here!! A little further from town, the privacy of amazing beaches, few people and plenty of natural beauty is worth the drive. While in town, we had great experiences scuba diving, renting bikes and dining out. The owners are great and are very responsive and the home provides all the conveniences that make a stay very relaxing! Good people, great place, amazing memories!! Big thanks and we hope to return again!!

Kepuhi Cottage

This is our absolute favorite place to stay on Molokai. It’s on a quiet corner of the complex with a beautiful view. Close as it gets to the ocean! We were able to fish at night and see & hear the poles from the condo lanai. The home itself is well equipped. Everything we needed was there from cooking gadgets to beach equipment. We lovingly call the view from the living room, bedroom and lanai the Surf Channel and could sit and watch all day long. Left feeling blissed out and relaxed. I highly recommend this cottage to anyone seeking a little slice of paradise at the Kepuhi Beach Resort.

Special place away from it all

Having been to the Hawaiian islands 7 times, we were ready to explore the path less traveled and we're glad we did. The cottage has a great Hawaiian feel with lots of island style decor, is very well appointed with anything you'd need and the ocean view is fantastic. (There was an temporary orange safety fence visable from the lanai. I think it is around the area where a building was recently removed and they are trying to grow grass now). The areas in the front and back are well manicured, inviting and well lit at night Our favorite spot was the lanai and it's better than the picture shows since the tile floor was installed. Inside is airy and breezy. There is no air conditioning. Yes, it would've been nice but the breezes and fans made it ok. Sleeping was no problem. (Electricity is very expensive in Hawaii and we were outdoors at the warmer times anyway). The beach is really amazing although the water may be a little rough for some swimmers. We did enjoy some fantastic days there - cooler and beach chairs provided! The pool area is great also. There were times where we had it all to ourselves and the ocean views from there were second to none. We especially enjoyed walking the grounds around sunset. As for the overall resort: yes, there are numerous abandoned buildings and lots of the windows are boarded or are dirty (ocean mist + dust + breezes), there were some visible pieces of heavy equipment (backhoe, skid steer) on site. There is a general store on site, which we were thankful for, that sells basic groceries (no alcohol) and souveniers. During the daytime, we always saw groundskeeping and maintainance so the areas were being kept. My review is for the cottage itself which is truly a special place, and for my experience with the owner/manager - excellent communication and fast to respond to any concerns. Do your research and if you want to get away from it all and enjoy a peaceful Hawaiian experience, I definitely recommend this cottage.

Host profile image
This cottage is owned, operated and treasured by an adventurous family from the foothills of Colorado.

Why they chose this property

With its beachfront location and amazing ocean views, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to have such a special place in our lives. Since we purchased the property in 1996, our Molokai Ohana has become even more special to us and we never tire of the view from the lanai.

What makes this property unique

Molokai is an incredibly beautiful place and we try to make our Ohana as special as the beauty around us! Our family shares our custom photo art from our favorite Molokai sites and adventures, pressed flower pictures, and paintings.
