Molokai

"Hawaiian By Nature"

The legendary birthplace of Hula, "the heartbeat of Hawaii", Molokai is a sanctuary for the spirit, a pristine and wild place. Fortunately, change has pretty much ignored Molokai. You will find no fast food chains, no elevators, traffic signals, or crowds. You will only find a sense of peace and serenity.

Seclusion is paramount on Molokai. Explore the island atop a rented bicycle, bask in the sun on a white sand beach, take a mule train ride down the switch back trail to Kalaupapa, or take a flight seeing tour, skimming the sea cliffs and waterfalls. At night, uncountable stars appear in the sky, and from the Western shore you can see the shimmering lights of Waikiki, only 40 miles across the channel, yet worlds from your little slice of paradise!




Where to stay

Accommodation choices are extremely limited on Molokai, the recent closure of The Molokai Ranch and lodge has left only two remaining areas providing a smattering of condominiums, and a hotel.

  • Kaunakakai, the main town on Molokai (don't blink or you'll miss it) located at the mid-way point of the southern shore, offering a limited choice of hotel or condominium style accommodations.


  • Kaluakoi- on the sunny West end of the island, you will find condominiums and an endless stretch of white sand beach.
