Mid-century Remodeled Spectacular Ocean Views! 10% Discount for Week+ Stays!

Our spacious remodeled vacation home has amazing ocean, Bali Hai and golf course views and now boasts updated modern bathrooms with Hans Grohe rain showers and fixtures plus a free-standing tub in the master bathroom, state of the art kitchen with Caesarstone counters and Kitchen Aid appliances, all new windows and doors, 8 foot tall sliders leading to the rear lanai, two covered outdoor lanais for dining and unwinding, wall to wall hardwood flooring, wood patio decking, midcentury modern furnishings and an enclosed covered garage. Each room including the lanai is equipped with Big Ass fans, considered the most efficient and quietest fans on the market.

*** Please bear in mind that the trade winds blow so we do not have any air conditioners in the house. If you really need air conditioners, this may not be the house for you - the natural breezes are incredible through the house most of the time. We provide ceiling and floor fans in every room for your use.

Princeville is located just by Hanalei, on the island of Kauai, which is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful places on earth. Its pristine beaches are surrounded by a stunning array of waterfalls and emerald-green cliffs.

Melia Kai is a private home with a sweeping view of the cobalt blue Pacific Ocean and the cascading waterfalls of Namolokama. Located on the Princeville Makai golf course, our house offers the visitor a wonderful opportunity to do just about everything---but it is also a terrific place to do absolutely nothing!

The spectacular views invite you to walk barefoot across the fairway to the edge of a 150-foot cliff (security may ask you to leave so please do not go across before 7 pm after the golfing day is over), where you look down on waves crashing onto the lava rock below. If you watch closely, you will see turtles swimming in the coves beneath you.

You will find that Melia Kai offers the best of two worlds - the luxurious amenities of the Princeville resort area (security patrol, community center, shopping mall and golfing) and the exotic remoteness of Kauai's north shore. One minute you can be sipping a Mai Tai in a crisp summer outfit at the sumptuous One Hanalei Hotel and the next you can be navigating a jungle trail in your bathing suit looking for the waterfall at the head of the Kalihiwai Valley.

Note: Although our home is all on one floor, please note that we have 3 steps with handrails leading up to the front door landing and there is a step down between the entryway/dining area down to the living room area. This home may not work for guests who require handicap access, guests who cannot easily go up and down the step down or guests with small children who may fall easily.

Come stay the week at Melia Kai and experience paradise first hand! We offer discounts for weekly and monthly stays.

Due to neighborhood restrictions, our house is not available for rental for on-site retreats or for guest housing for off-site retreats. We are only available to groups of families and friends. Mahalo! ****

Great stay!

We had a great time staying at Melia Kai! The views are gorgeous and most evenings we walked across the golf course to watch the sunset over the ocean. Great walking to Queen's Bath! The house is really lovely and is in a very safe and convenient location. Meg was very accommodating and easy to work with! We would love to come again!

Amazing Princeville House

We loved our stay at Melia Kai! It was perfect for our family of 4 adults and 1 child. The communication was great, the views are spectacular, we had everything we needed, even received recommendations of what to do on our rainy days. The beach chairs and gear were great for the days we could go to the beach. Would highly recommend this house and look forward to coming back!!!

Wonderful Time

We had a wonderful time at this property. The house was beautiful and located exactly where we wanted to be. The cleanliness and comfort was exceptional. We had to deal with a little bit of ants but when you're in the tropics - that happens. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property.

INCREDIBLE

We rent from VRBO frequently and sometimes the photos don't always align . . . but this Princeville home exceeded our expectations! The location is stunning with views of the golf course, mountains and ocean in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. The home was a PERFECT size for the six of us (4 adults, 2 children). Meg has EVERYTHING you could possibly need in the kitchen, laundry, etc. The home is spotless and obviously well cared for. The hot tub was clean and a lovely respite after a lot of family activity! We HIGHLY recommend this home!!

Fantastic property for a relaxing stay on the Garden Isle!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Melia Kai. The property was spotless and had plenty of towels, dishware, etc. We enjoyed daily use of the deck out back, hot tub, and barbeque. The view of the ocean was wonderful, and many birds and sweet-smelling gardenia. The owner and on-island manager were very responsive to our questions, and easily accessible. We have stayed at many properties via vrbo and others and this is definitely one of the best.

Perfect Vacation Getaway

Stunning views. Island feel. Quiet. Safe neighborhood. Relaxing. Well appointed. Clean. Amazing sunsets. Would have loved to stay longer. Convenient location to get to Hanalei Bay. We have only positive things to say about this house after staying for a week. Enjoyed having beach accessories available (e.g., beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards).

Paradise!

Our stay at this incredible vacation rental was nothing short of magical! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean, visible from nearly every room. Enjoying coffee on the spacious deck in the morning and watching the sunset in the evenings was simply unforgettable.The home itself is impeccably maintained, beautifully decorated, and designed for comfort. The kitchen was one of the best-stocked we've ever experienced in a rental—every tool, gadget, and spice you could need was right at our fingertips, making cooking a delight. Whether we were preparing a bbq feast or simply enjoying a glass of wine with the ocean breeze, we had everything we needed.The hosts have truly thought of every detail, from cozy, high-quality linens to an excellent selection of books and board games for relaxing evenings. The location was perfect—secluded enough to feel like a private retreat, yet close to great restaurants, shops, and beaches.If you're looking for a peaceful, luxurious escape with stunning ocean views and all the comforts of home, this is the place. We can't wait to return!

Best spot in Princeville!

Meg’s place was clean, comfortable, stylish and large enough to accommodate 4 adults and 2 small kids. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, coffee maker etc. The pictures really don’t do it justice. The house itself is beautiful but the location on the golf course close to sweeping ocean views really made our trip unique. We had our 4 and 6 year old boys with us and thought the space was very kid friendly. We would love to stay here again on our next trip to Kauai!

Beautiful home, great location. We can't wait to come back!

We LOVED staying at Meg's home during our recent trip to Kauai. It's spacious, beautifully designed, and was very comfortable & relaxing for our family of four. We especially loved the luxurious master bathroom and the hot tub with a view! It was also fun to watch the baby albatross outside the window. We stayed at the Grand Hyatt in Poipu for the second half of our trip and MUCH preferred our time in Melia Kai. It was so nice to have a kitchen, laundry, extra space, and privacy. Check in was also very easy (just a keypad) and Meg was quick to respond to my requests. This home is a great value and so gorgeous. We would book it again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful location

My Father-in-law kept saying this is the life and he could get used to this. The house is beautiful and very updated. Everyone wanted to try out the shower and tub in the master bathroom. We showed up when a big storm came over all the islands but we were very safe in this location. Cell phone service is hit or miss in Princeville but there is WiFi and you can turn on Wifi - calling to get your text messages to go through. Make sure to take the short drive over to Hanalei Bay and see the pier.

Wonderful first anniversary trip

My wife and I decided to redo our honeymoon for our 1 year anniversary, but wanted to find a different place to stay. I searched through many homes and condos then found this one. It was fantastic! Everything we could have asked for from a stay in Princeville. We literally stayed right down the road from our honeymoon, but had a wonderful house versus a small, cramped and hot condo. The home itself is wonderfully redone and works perfectly for a family (my in-laws joined us for a week as well this year). The location can't be beat and the sweeping views of the mountains and the ocean are perfect. I highly recommend this home and will definitely stay in contact with Meg!

Highly recommend

Melia Kai is definitely one of the best finds in Princeville. It was our 6th visit to Kauai and Melia Kai is the only place we have come back to twice. There has been some amazing remodelling work done to make it even more outstanding (We had also stayed prior to the remodel). Lots of space in this 3 bedroom, 2 bath bungalow. Everything you need is supplied and more; even golf clubs. Communication with Meg was excellent. You will appreciate her prompt replies to any questions. Truly one of the best deals in a great location! You won't be disappointed!

Great stay but very involved checkin process

The house was great and in a beautiful location. Only complaint is that it did have a slight musty smell when we first got there. The checkin process was very involved with waivers that needed to be signed and a request for personal information (name, age, phone number, email, home address) about everyone staying. I wasn't too concerned about giving the information but it was very odd that all of that was required. I called VRBO and they told me that I was required to give this information if the owner requested it or I would have to forfeit the payment. I wasn't happy about it but after contacting the owner they were more lenient and didn't require me to give all of the information.

Beautiful!

This is a beautiful home and we loved our stay! It rained for a lot of our trip, but we expected this as it is north shore Kauai. We were worried about having no air conditioning, but we were very comfortable at night with the windows open. There were a few days with no trade winds where it got a little hot for a few hours in the afternoon, but nothing unmanageable. The house was clean and modern and it was well-stocked with the essentials. The location is absolutely gorgeous and within walking distance to Queen’s Bath and Hideaways Beach, which was very nice since parking is so limited. We really enjoyed grilling and eating out on the lanai. The house and yard were so beautiful and relaxing, it was sometimes hard to leave to do all the activities we had planned for our trip!

Wonderful home better than the pictures....

My wife and stayed here for our 3rd stop of our surprise honeymoon tour. My wife had no clue where we were staying and when she walked in the forst thing she said was... "It's absolutely perfect". When we arrived at the airport we rented a car and made one of the best 50 minute drives to this property. The drive was full of pull over and take a picture moments. Upon arrival the check-in directions that were sent gave an easy follow to plan for keys, rules, and house tips. I find the property to be in a good central location for all sorts of activities. Before booking I was a little nervous about not having A/C but that was a non factor, the cool breeze was more than sufficient. Spacious, Great views, good location. I would definitely recommend this property!
