We are in the town of Kapaa. Locals call Kapahi the 'Up country' part of Kapaa.

It is rural. Lots of trees, horses, goats, lambs. It is quaint with country roads, leading to magnificent trails taken on foot, bike, or horse back .

*Please note* Living in the country, you may come into contact with mosquitoes and ants and other critters. We have a mosquito net and organic spray that work for most people. Ants are attracted to food left out, sugar and water. We use a safe way to keep them away as best as we can*

Although we are in the country away from all the hustle and bustle of busy towns, We are only 3 miles to some of the most glorious beaches in the world as well as darling boutiques only minutes away!

On our road itself, we have many alternative healers, from acupuncturists, massage therapists, qi gong, yoga, biking , swimming in rivers, kayaks and lots more. Its really

the best of both worlds. Quiet and rural.

Other Activities: Surfing,swimming, body surfing, boogie boarding,snorkeling, kayaking, biking (there's an awesome bike path that runs along the coast, just 5 minutes from cottage) , horse back riding ,golf and so much more.

TRULY AMAZING IN EVERY WAY!

  • Submitted: Jan 23, 2013
  • Stayed: Jan 2013
My wife and I stayed at Hale Mala Pua for our honeymoon. It is SO absolutely gorgeous! As much as I rant and rave about this homestay it won't do any justice until you have stayed here! Hale Mala Pua was absolutely wonderful and romantic! My wife especially loved the jetted jacuzzi tub with all the bubbles! It was a perfect place to come home too after a day of going on adventures around Kaua'i! Hale Mala Pua was very clean and very private. The only time we saw Holly and Rick is when we actually sought them out to ask a question. My wife and I actually wish we could have seen Rick and Holly more as they are such lovely people! Truly, our lives are richer now knowing Holly and Rick and all the animals! We wish we could have stayed one more night just to take Rick up on his offer to have a bonfire and chat more! Rick and Holly have so much knowledge about the island and so much love for each of their guests! This love, kindness and respect shows itself throughout your stay and will definitely make an impact on you when you leave, leaving you feeling more enriched and blessed for having these amazing people in your life!
Hale Mala Pua was in an amazing location as well. We were only 10 minutes tops to the closest beach and the sports shack was such an amazing thing to have. I cannot tell you how much we saved not having to rent outdoor equipment for our activities! Such a huge bonus for anyone hoping to experience Kauai to the fullest!!!! The grounds are absolutely beautiful as well! It is so much more lush now, than the photos I am seeing while typing this review! SO BEAUTIFUL! Having the garden's was absolutely amazing too! I think we made orange juice every other day! SO GOOD! We could write pages and pages about how excellent our stay was at Hale Mala Pua! If you are considering vacationing in Kauai (for whatever reason) your search for a place to stay has ended! Don't hesitate and call Holly and Rick! You will not be disappointed in Hale Mala Pua!
Holly and Rick, we cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful honeymoon! We will recommend Hale Mala Pua to anyone and everyone who wants to vacation in Kauai. We will definitely be coming back (hopefully in the near future). We have felt like we have made lifelong friends and we cannot wait until we can see you and the animals again.

Much love and blessings to you all!!!

Cozy, elegant, clean, welcoming, serene....

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 7, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
When we arrived at the property, we were taken aback by the stunning landscaping and fruit trees with the backdrop of giant, lush green mountains all around us. We were immediately welcomed by Holly and Rick- some of the warmest, kindest people we've ever met- and as if the outdoor beauty weren't enough, the interior of the Hale Mala Pua was completely charming. Cozy, elegant, clean, welcoming, and serene are just some of the words I would use to describe the comfort of the home. The other huge bonus of the property (for us- a young, adventurous, outdoorsy couple) was the "Sports Shack," which saved us the money and hassle of renting the gear we wanted to use. We highly recommend Hale Mala Pua to anyone traveling to Kauai who wants the secluded serenity of the mountains with easy access to the beach.

Fantastic Visit!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 4, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
We really enjoyed our visit at Hale Mala Pua and it provided a great home away from home for our adventures on Kauai. If you want to explore the whole island without packing up and relocating during the week and you are looking for a place in "real Kauai" away from the "crowds" (such as they are on Kauai) and the resorts, this is the place! As soon as you meet Holly and Rick, they feel like family and will do whatever they can to make you feel at home. As animal lovers ourselves, we really enjoyed hanging out with their golden retriever, cats, and Lucy the pig! The only negative thing I can possibly come up with about our stay were the ants and mosquitoes (which seem to particularly like us) but that's life in the rainforest and Holly and Rick have remedies available as needed. Don't let that deter you, though, because you will be missing out (the other reviews are true)!

One Incredible Week!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: May 13, 2013
  • Stayed: Apr 2013
My partner and I just returned from a wonderful week in Rick and Holly's incredible little cottage and we loved every minute of our stay. It is the most private accommodation we have ever stayed at right from the outdoor sunken jetted tub to the outdoor shower on the lanai. We are having a hard time adjusting to having to shower inside now that we are home! The house is located ideally both in terms of its proximity to the beaches, hikes and exploration that make Kapa'a the ideal area on Kauai to spend time and the gorgeous grounds it is located on. I know that this is largely due to the tireless work that Rick and Holly have done since they acquired this house. They are both such warm, sharing people, a large part of our enjoyment came from meeting and getting to know them. We enjoyed all the equipment in the Sport's Shack and loaded up the kayak one day and two bicycles on another day. Rick was most helpful both in loading these items and sharing info on where to use them. Get him to tell you about the amazing river kayak/waterfall adventure that Kim and I shared. Holly took us down to the waterfall directly behind the property, it is incredible. They really have created a "slice of paradise" and we would thoroughly recommend their hale to anyone.

Hale Mala Pua- an Amazing Place

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 16, 2013

There is no matching anywhere the personal attention you will receive from Holly and Rick. Our flight was delayed and we arrived in Kauai very late. When we arrived, Rick had a delicious meal waiting for our hungry family of five. Rick and Holly were available and provided us with great tips about Kauai. We would text Holly with questions and she would promptly respond with very helpful information. We now consider them good friends and thank them for giving us an amazing week.

Their home sits on an acre of gorgeous land with beautiful trees, an organic garden, and a waterfall. In the mornings we would sit and enjoy the surrounding mountains from lawn chairs in their yard. We would then pick oranges and avacados from their trees for morning smoothies. Their garden produced beautiful lettuce for salads. After a day out exploring we loved pulling into their driveway and coming back to such a peaceful location. The interior of the space was spotless and beautifully decorated with attention to detail, including fresh hawaiian flowers. We loved the lanai with a hottub to soak in and barbecue to fix our own meals. My three teenagers loved the outdoor hot shower on the lanai to wash off the sand from the beach. While the space was intimate, the five of us felt very comfortable.

Their sports shack saved us time and money. We used boogie boards, surf boards, beach chairs, ice chests, water bottles, and other items. They provided bicycles to cycle along the new bike path down in Kapaa, just a few minutes away. Their location in Kapaa is ideal for exploring. One can easily get to the beaches on either the north shore or down to the south and westside beaches from Kapaa. The airport in Lihue is just a few minutes away too.

We highly recommend Hale Mala Pua. You will have an intimate experience you would not otherwise have at a resort or hotel. When we return to this beautiful island, we will be calling Holly and Rick. Thank you again for such a rich experience.
