Family vacation

Such a fantastic place for our family vacation, 2023. With 9 bedrooms, everyone had plenty of room. A lot of time was spent in the beautiful swimming pool. Views of the ocean were enjoyed as we sat on the lanai. The setting was so lovely. Would not hesitate to rent this "plantation" again.

Family Reunion

Lots of space and wonderful view of the ocean. The pool, with waterfall and hot tub is amazing. It was lovely to relax on the two separate lanais. Big remodled modern kitchen and master suite in the main house. The 2 kitchenettes are both at the poolhouse,1 on the lanai,1 in the bedroom with only a sink and refrigerator. Though it says recently renovated, the property is under construction with some features including some electrical and lighting not working, and some things in need of repair.The description and photos of the property are still not acurate despite the many reviews mentioning this. Walls are very thin in the tall house with the 6 bedrooms. Beds are very comfortable.The pickle ball court is the driveway /parking area with a roll-out net. It says bring your own paddles but we left ours so there should be 4.There is a great sand volleyball court with a net but you'll need a ball.There are also alot of pool toys. Stop at a store on your way and buy soap because there was soap in only 1 of the 10 bathrooms on the property. There are also no hand towels. For the kitchen,you'll need to buy some salt & pepper, spices and oil for cooking but otherwise is well equipt. Great snorkling up the road at Shark's Cove where you can rent gear. There are food trucks nearby and great shopping at The Polynesian Cultural Center and nearby open air market. Lovely swimming beach, good for little (and big) ones,just up the road from the house maybe 1/4 mile. We had a great time.

Amazing property!

My husband and I renewed our vows at Moli’i Gardens & needed a place to house some of our guests flying to Hawaii. This place exceeded our expectations! The rooms were really nice & everyone felt comfortable in their own spaces. The pictures posted are not up to date at all and there are so many other features that we all enjoyed! There was a sauna, a pickle ball court, an outdoor movie seating that we all loved and of course the gated pool. The owner greeted us when we arrived and was so nice & welcoming. We had a bbq one of the days & she was extremely accommodating. We would love to get a group back there again!

About the host

Hosted by Luisa

Why they chose this property

The Koolau Estate is located on the North Shore of Oahu which is home to some of the best beaches on the island. It is located in the "country" which truly gives you a taste of the local feel and aspect of Hawaii. The relaxed less rushed pace of the country and its friendly people really gives you a chance to enjoy Hawaii as it should be. Nestled between the mountains and the ocean is truly magical and the Plantation styled homes bring you away from the city feel.
