About this property
Moani Kai - Beach, Pickleball, AC, 2 Kitchens
PLEASE INQUIRE FIRST.
Escape to a rare private beach estate where country charm meets breathtaking oceanfront living. Set on a full acre of beachfront land, this stunning 6-bedroom, 4-bath, two-story retreat is designed for unforgettable island getaways with family and friends.
Newly added expansive doors now open fully to the outdoors, blurring the line between inside and out and letting ocean breezes, sunlight, and the sound of waves flow through the home—perfect for true indoor-outdoor living.
The property features an outdoor Jacuzzi overlooking the ocean, a private all-sport court (pickleball, basketball, and badminton), and a fully fenced compound that offers both privacy and space to roam. Each floor includes its own ocean-view primary bedroom and a full kitchen, making the home ideal for two families traveling together. (Please note: there is no interior access between floors.) For added comfort, air conditioning has been added to four bedrooms.
Tucked beneath the trees, you’ll discover a secluded massage deck and hammock, just steps from the sand—your own hidden sanctuary. Gather for sunset dinners at the outdoor dining area seating 10, perfectly positioned under the trees for memorable BBQs. Wrap-around decks on both levels deliver panoramic views of one of the most beautiful and protected bays in the islands.
This is a quiet, upscale beach home, long cherished by Honolulu’s established families and favored by local artists and writers for its peaceful, inspiring atmosphere.
Located on Oahu’s legendary North Shore, you’re just minutes from iconic beaches like Sunset Beach, Waimea Bay, and Ehukai (Banzai Pipeline)—yet worlds away from the bustle of Honolulu.
If you’re seeking space, privacy, natural beauty, and an authentic North Shore experience, this extraordinary beachfront estate is truly one of a kind.

Reviews Moani Kai was a wonderful family friendly place to stay with a beautiful beach front view! The view was incredible, the relaxed atmosphere of that side of the island was so great, Carole was very friendly and accommodating and helped us when we needed additional pack and plays for the grandchildren. We loved the hot tub, the sport court, the beach, the porch, the barbecue grill and table set up for family dinners was awesome and we loved the atmosphere in the evenings when we turned on the lights around the dinner table and the trees nearby that were lit, it was really very relaxing and inviting. Thanks so much for making our stay such a pleasant one! Theresa Robertson; June 2, 2015
"Great home, quiet location, helpful caretaker" This home was great for 6 couples celebrating our father's 80th birthday. The house was clean and well maintained. There was plenty of space for 12 adults to visit together, and cozy nooks for individuals to read and enjoy the property. The weather on this side of the island was very windy while we were there. My brother was able to kite board on the beach outside the back door. However, the last day was still and perfect. Carol, the care taker, was friendly and provided great ideas for beaches, food, hikes, etc. Thanks Carol and Lavish Getaways for making this such a great vacation. We want to come back.

Best Weekend Ever!!!! The Moani Kai was absolutely beautiful....the house is well equipped inside and out........kitchen has everything you would need...... outdoors had surf boards, chairs, toys for kids, towels....just bring your swimsuit!! There's enough room to accommodate the young active ones and space for relaxing and peacefulness. The property is right on the beach yet private. We will rent again!!! The caretaker was friendly and helpful. Wendy Maher, Sept 7, 2014
Awesome We had the very best time at Moani Kai. Our children and their families spent four wonderful days at this totally enjoyable home. Being residents of O'ahu and most of our family coming in from the mainland we wanted to make sure that their stay was the best ever. Moani Kai did not disappoint. Highly recommended. I'd definitely stay here again. Paul Kapena Kim, Oahu, July 2014
Exceeded our expectations! The only thing wrong with our 5 day stay was it was too short! The house was perfectly located right on the beach which was also beautiful with soft golden sand. We enjoyed lunches and drinks on the lanai with the gorgeous yard sloping to the beach. The house has a wide open feel and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking for 2 or 12. (The caretaker) was sweet and helpful and a pleasure to work with. Lavish Getaways did an excellent job presenting several options of properties for us to pick from. We can't thank everyone enough for helping us have our dream wedding. Jeff and Cindi, Seattle, April 2014
We loved this place! This house was perfect for our group of married children & our grandkids. It was even better than the pictures could show. We had so much space and the kids all commented how we never felt crowded. The yard was so great for the kids to run around in when they were done with the sand. The beach was so beautiful in a bay which had a break so the surf wasn't too scary for the little ones. The sport court was fun, too! The hot tub was working great. A guy even came mid-week to clean it. It was especially nice after a day at the beach! The caretaker was adorable and friendly. She checked in with us to make sure we didn't need anything but was never invasive. We found plenty to do right around the area. Lots of fun food places. Loved Papa Ole's for breakfast. My husband was on grill duty for dinners and commented that a newer and bigger BBQ would be great, but we were grateful for all of the extras provided that we weren't expecting. There are 2 washers & 2 dryers to use which was so helpful for our big group. The unit provided plenty of beach & bath towels, lots of chairs in the yard for hanging out, and even beach toys for the kids. There were boogie boards & surf boards. There was DW soap & even TP...Just a few nice things we didn't have to run out & buy! Our biggest Thank You to the owners & rental agency & the caretaker for helping our family vacation be the best it could be! Everyone loved it so much and we really hope we can come back again!! You gotta come here if you want to get away from the crazy Waikiki and feel how Hawaii is supposed to be. Marsha; Draper, Utah; March 9, 2014
Great Beach house! I think our business club just found the best beach house ever! I
