Dramatic New Kukui'ula Estate: Dazzling Style + Seaviews + Unique Pool & Spa
Jaw-dropping, breathtaking, spectacular: sometimes even the highest superlatives can seem like low-key understatement. Pali Nui—this uniquely gorgeous new Kukui'ula villa—is distinctively designed and stylishly curated, with artful décor, tropical allure, and delightful diversions at every turn. Whether it’s dazzling by daylight or radiantly aglow at night, Pali Nui’s sprawling, estate-like layout showcases the vivid, expansive views of ocean, mountains, golf course, and sunsets. Inside and out, this dramatic wood-and-glass masterpiece offers the luxurious amenities of a 5-star resort along with the casual comfort—and total privacy—of home. Six cool, inviting bedrooms (beguilingly named Hula, Kona, Lava, Puka, Coral, and Nani) adjoin glamorous en-suite baths, 4 of which boast their own walled gardens with rainforest showers. In the soaring, open-plan living space, an elegantly furnished great room segues into a congenial dining area and state-of-the-art kitchen, all with epic ocean views. Immediately adjacent, the capacious covered lanai overlooks a truly show stopping swimming pool: a sinuous, sparkling turquoise lagoon that flows around a festive “volcano spa” hot tub, a picturesque Pai Pai pavilion with TV and swim-up bar, and refreshing in-pool chaises. Pali Nui’s location is divine, as well; the pastoral Kula Makai neighborhood feels like verdant countryside, with scenic trails just steps away, yet it’s only minutes from the famous beaches, enticing recreations, and glittering attractions of the South Shore!

Poipu Paradise
The property is a mini resort! The rooms were spacious and perfect for our group of 10. The central area was ideal for pool time, reading, games' and hanging out. One of the highlights was the dinner prepared by Chef Cameron and Daniel. Such a fun experience and the food was amazing. We will definitely return!

Great Family Vacation
This home is perfect for large groups that enjoy spending time with each other, but like their own privacy as each suite felt like a hotel room. It was wonderful to have a large range of kitchen equipment for cooking as well.

Great family house!
Extremely relaxing and allowed privacy for everyone. Perfect for our family. We spent quite a bit of time outside. Kitchen was well equipped and comfortable. Felt very secure in such a lovely location. Private but close to the beach.

Wonderful Property
Beautiful setting and a very nice layout. It took a couple days to learn where everything was located and how to operate some of the appliances. Kitchen could use a few more utensils. Windows could be cleaned and door into kitchen definitely needs an adjustment. Overall I would recommend this property for a family gathering.

Paradise
Staying at this beautiful property was like staying at a 5 star resort exclusively with our friends and family. Each en suite bedroom was very private, most with outdoor showers, all with beautiful decor and attention to detail. The common areas were stunning from the kitchen/great room to the resort like pool/bar area complete with an outdoor television. When we had minor issues, they were addressed immediately. Would definitely recommend for your next group or family trip.
