Hale 'Imi Ola: Ocean Views, Luxury, Balinese Charm
Hawaiian ease meets Balinese charm in this uniquely elegant, custom-designed South Shore villa, with luxuries galore & views for miles. Brand-new & wonderfully spacious, Hale 'Imi Ola offers the ultimate in stylish, relaxing indoor-outdoor living, complete with pool/spa & an inviting lanai that’s perfect for entertaining. The expansive layout—3 BR/3.5BA in the main house, plus a 4th suite in the enchanting, detached ohana cottage—is ideal for family groups of all sizes, and every space (inside & out) is replete with tastefully luxe furnishings, state-of-the-art appliances & attractive island-style amenities.
Each of the 4 full baths features the ultimate in tropical delight: an outdoor shower set in a private garden behind lava-rock walls. Beguiling Balinese touches include vast swathes of rich, luminous mahogany; gorgeously crafted furniture; and eye-pleasing wall art & textiles in botanical motifs. Color abounds, with the brilliant blues & glorious greens of the grassy pool area echoed in the idyllic vistas of golf course, palm trees, sea & sky.
Hale ‘Imi Ola’s location, in the prime Kukui'ula community overlooking a world-class golf course, is incredibly convenient. The house is wonderfully quiet & private—tucked away behind lava-rock walls—yet it’s a short walk or drive to all the wonders of Poipu: legendary beaches, intriguing shopping, exciting restaurants & must-see landmarks. And when you’re ready to venture farther afield, there’s quick, easy access to highways that will take you to every amazing corner of this beautiful, fascinating, irresistible island.

Wonderful short stay at this property. Beautiful home with much valued outdoor amenities -- pool, fire pit, outdoor showers, outdoor TV area. We spent most of the week outside as a result. Highly recommend this property.
This house was excellent. Beautiful, clean, cozy. The landscaping is excellently maintained and outdoor areas are super functional. Highly recommend.

The house and property and views are gorgeous - could not have asked for a better place to stay! From the amazing hand soap to the super comfy furniture you can tell no details were spared. Outdoor showers were also incredible!
We loved our week in this gorgeous home. It is even more beautiful in person than in the photos. Our family of seven had more than enough space for all of us, and the house layout allowed privacy and togetherness. The outdoor showers are fun. The pool and jacuzzi are perfect, and the view is a golf course and the ocean. This is truly a 5-star vacation home. We would love to return ASAP.

This was our second time renting this house and we couldn't have been happier. Perfect location, great house and pool, and very helpful staff. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay. We'll definitely be back.
We brought our family of six with 4 adult children. The house was perfect. There was plenty of space for individual time and the lanai was a great space for all of us to come together. The house itself was incredible architecturally and functionally. The location was perfect, quieter than a hotel with much more room for family fun! It was a great escape for a week!
Wailani is the BEST rental company on the island. Don't fall for the hype of the others. This group of people makes everything easier and friendlier than the rest. And, their houses are much newer and nicer. Mahalo for another great stay!
Absolutely perfect! I can’t say enough good things about this home. The tropical vibe is off the charts. The landscaping is lush, tropical and beautifully kept, the house is spacious but cozy and comfortable and super clean. The ocean view…. gorgeous. The outdoor showers…. Heaven. The pool, A/C in every room, washer, dryer, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, a cooler available for use, this house had everything you could think of. Everyone we spoke to at Wailani Kauai was amazing. So friendly and helpful and responded right away to any inquiries we had. Thank you so very much for a beautiful stay, if I could give you 10 stars I would.

This is a great property in a great location. It is near shopping, beaches, golf, and all the best dining locations. We will definitely be back.The only small changes they could make would be to have a second set of keys or a keypad on the main house, as well as a microwave in the Ohana/Casita.
This was a wonderful home. It was fully stocked with everything we needed. It was so nice to have the pool and hot tub in the back to come home to after the beach or hiking. We used the Sonos the entire time as well as the outdoor TV for one football game! The home itself is beautiful and as pictured as are the furnishings. The neighborhood is beautiful, safe, and 7 minutes from town. The neighborhood is great for a long walk in the mornings. And everyone in the neighborhood was so nice. Kauai is a wonderful island for a family vacation and this home was great for coming together as a family. I highly recommend it and we would love to come again.
This property is exceptional. The pictures really don't do it justice - it is just amazing in person. Our family of 6, including an infant, enjoyed our stay so much. The space was perfect for everyone to have privacy, interact, enjoy the pool, the spa, the kitchen, etc. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, and the view....well the view each morning was outstanding. The management company was very responsive with any questions, and everything was super easy - check in, check out, and the upgraded provisions (beach equipment, Sonos music system, etc.) were so nice to have. The house is unbelievably beautiful inside and out - we hope to come back again soon!
We celebrated my mom's 70th here, and this house was perfect for our needs. We had kids, grandparents, and a single aunt in addition to my husband and me, and we were easily able to spread out and have our own space as needed. The pool and hot tub were in constant use when we were at the house. We cooked in a lot and had all the utensils we needed, although the only spices available were salt and pepper. The outside patio was perfect for dinners. I felt the house was exactly as billed. The only very minor issue was lack of spices and lack of beach toys (boogie boards, sand toys) but the chairs and umbrellas were clutch. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
This gorgeous property with the wonderful communication we got from the management company made this vacation perfect! We had the best and most relaxing stay. The only thing that would have made it better would have been us staying longer.
Clean, perfectly decorated and appointed. The outdoor showers in every room are my absolute favorite! Property management is always available and extremely helpful. This was our second stay and we will be back!
Pictures do not do this property justice it far exceeded all of our expectations! We definitely will be staying at this property again!

Great view, setting and location. All appliances were great. Only the dish washer tray would come off the track. Bathrooms and outdoor sowers were fun. Air conditioning was excellent. Would recommend this home to friends.
Our group of 8 had a great time at this property. Definitely could have stayed here for a week. Why did we enjoy it so much?
1 - House in located in convenient area of Poipu - beach, food shopping, golf and many activities in close proximity
2 - Property management is really good - very attentive and easy to work with - helped with a couple of special requests and coordinated some activities
3 - House is in great shape / new construction and amenities
4 - Constant breeze on back patio - we spent many evenings out here playing games, grilling, using hot tub and watching movies
5 - Great view out back of house - the photos you see in this listing is exactly what you get
Everything was great with the property and lush grounds. We were just confused as to why the master bedroom only had an outside shower and all other bedrooms had both an inside and outside shower. There was no lock on the outside shower door. Took a bit getting used to- Otherwise we really enjoyed the outdoor living spaces.

Reviewer Comments:
The home is spectacular - beautiful and very well appointed. The landscaping and view are breathtaking. Would have given 5 stars but for 2 things:(1) Privacy - Tuesday through Friday we had people out every day in the house or on the property looking after plants, landscaping, etc. The plants caretaker entered the home on Friday while we were there when we asleep when we didn't answer the knock and we were not expecting anyone on that day. The landscapers also arrived unannounced in our back yard on Friday looking for a lost blower. (2) The driveway is a trip hazard due to the grass between lava slabs. One of our party fell on two separate occasions and hurt her leg. We were glad nothing was broken.
