Our family of 12 had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous home. The accommodations were everything we had hoped for. We cooked lots of meals at home, and found this kitchen to be set up and stocked with every utensil and device you could think of... truly a cooking pleasure. The pool was used by all, and we continually were accessing the ocean with all the play toys that were provided. Owner was very responsive and quickly resolved a WIFI issues due to a power surge. We all had enough space to sprawl and relax. Mahalo

Great house and perfect location to Honolulu. The house is on a Main Street but is set back and gated. Worked well with younger kids.

We had an wonderful family get-together at Moana Lani. In addition to 3 adult couples, we had kids from 2 to 16 years old, and 3 grandparents. Even with such a diverse group, this rental satisfied in every way. The kids enjoyed all of the thoughtful amenities, like the kayaks, ping pong table, billiards, basketball hoop, and media room. There wasn't a moment of boredom. The adults loved the spacious accomodations, and enjoyed cooking together in the kitchen and on the outdoor grill. And the house had so many unique and private areas that people could get away for a little quiet time if they wanted. The photos did not lie... the house is as beautiful as it looks, and what you can't see from the photos is that it is also immaculately clean, well supplied, and thoughtfully organized. Location was great too... grocery stores and restaurants nearby, and perfectly situated to visit both downtown Honolulu as well as beaches northward up the coast. And a final shout out to the rental managers, who even set up holiday decorations for us, because we came during Christmas! Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

My family and I stay at Moana Lani from July 7 through the 14th of 2018. The property was truly amazing. The house had all that was needed to spend your time away. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes, glassware, large refrigerator and double oven and dishwasher for those who feel like cooking. We spent our nights eating outside in an outdoor dining area and watched the ocean and listened to the sound of the waves coming into the bay.. That was just the beginning. The whole house is truly set up for a large group with two master bedrooms with beautiful bathrooms and Lani’s off each of them... more bedrooms spread through the house, each with their own baths, also a separate bedroom/ apartment over the garage which has a workout area, pooltable, the perfect spot for extra guest who need their space. Let’s talk about the pool...ahh... perfect, we never missed going to the beach as we had 3 children ages 4-5-6. When we were not sightseeing, we were always in the pool. Owners supplied beach towels and pool floats and toys, had a hot tub, very clean and the setting was relaxing. The house also had a movie room which we took advantage of for the children and had a laundry room which really came in handy as we had more traveling to do after our stay at here. It helps so you can pack less as you are able to wash if needed. It has a whole house stereo system which impressed my adult children as we had music flowing throughout the house all day. The outdoor area was fabulous as well. Besides the covered covered porch there was a grill, bar area, large yard for children to run around in and again all that you need for the outdoor space is provided. The outdoor pingpong table was a hit as well. The home, yard and pool was far above our expectations and we loved this home so so much.. my grandchildren cried when it was time to say goodbye. Chelsey, our house manager, made us feel very welcomed and she was very informed about the property so if questions come up, she responds in a timely manner.. I really could go on and on about how lovely this home is but it’s true, my search took me to Moana Lani, my little piece of heaven. Karen

This home delivered as promised and then some! The layout and amenities were perfect for our family vacation. The home is very well maintained and has absolutely everything needed for relaxing and cooking family meals as well as entertainment options for all ages. Our family made good use of the paddle boards and kayaks! The grounds are impeccably kept and the views are just amazing. The location is quite convenient to the attractions we visited including Pearl Harbor and the Polynesian Cultural Center. There is also great shopping and nice beaches right up the road. We were greeted by our concierge when we arrived and shown everything we needed to know. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for the perfect place to relax in luxury and pricacy.

We had two families meet up on Oahu for a spring break vacation. We have all traveled quite extensively so our expectations were set pretty high. Our expectations were more than met, they were exceeded with this property. The bedroom linens were new and fresh, kitchen appointed perfectly and there were more than enough pool and ocean toys for our families to enjoy...stand up paddle boards, surfboards, kayaks, etc....The oceanfront lanai and backyard were our favorites and we enjoyed outside dining and entertaining every night. Fire bowls and tiki torches made it perfect. This place is truly amazing and we're definitely coming back! Aloha, Jeff Dodge Lincoln, NE

We are a family of 4 and visited the home for a week in August. Wow! What an absolute perfect property and a great home-base for our Island Excursions. The house is laid out perfect for the family with glorious bedrooms upstairs and fantastic views to wake to. The kitchen was certainly our gathering place as the kids dipped in the pool while we prepared our breakfast in the perfect kitchen. The dining and living areas were great, but being from Colorado, we ate all our meals on the Lenai and enjoyed true Hawaii! We enjoyed daily excursions to nearby locations like Diamond Head, Waikiki and a fantastic visit to the Pearl Harbor Memorial. Other strips to surf beaches, beach communities and a pineapple plantation, with several wonderful hikes in between. Back at the house, we enjoyed cooking dinners together, followed by movies in the great home theatre. Kids loved the endless variety of shows and movies available. We always ended the night out at the fire pit, sipping a night-cap, and staring at the stars glistening on the calm waters just a reach away! Plenty of room for more than 4 in the super clean and well appointed property. Owners Jon and Mary were awesome to work with and were quick to help fulfill every need. They are also great concierges and recommended some great activities and local restaurants! Absolutely loved our stay in the beautiful property, and would recommend to anyone looking for a five star experience on private waterfront home in a tranquil Hawaii setting!!!

Moana Lani was the third house we rented in Oahu. One of them was shabbier than the photos shown at the website. But Moana Lani was more beautiful and spacious than we expected. Everybody of my whole family including four kids (2,6,7,10 years old) was fully satisfied with the life at this house. We jumped in the pool from every common room. We could walk at the front shore while the tide was low and quiet to see turtles. Elite was very responsive and quick from the first inquiry to the end of our vacation. We want come back to Moana Lani again next year !
