🌺 Welcome to West Moloka'i
Turn-Key Ready. Quietly Beautiful. Yours.
Step inside and exhale. This 1-bedroom, 1-bath ground-floor unit at Ke Nani Kai is fully furnished and ready for the moment you arrive. Bring your toothbrush — everything else is already here. Furniture, linens, kitchenware, all of it stays with the home. Recently remodeled kitchen and bathroom, fresh paint throughout, ceramic tile floors, and plenty of storage make this an immediate move-in.
Step out onto your 219-square-foot lanai for morning coffee with the trade winds, or evening sunsets that pause time. Just across the parking lot you'll find the heated community pool, BBQ area, club house, mailbox, and tennis/pickleball courts — everything within an easy walk. And right out front: Papōhaku Beach, the longest white-sand beach in Hawai'i, stretches for nearly three miles.
Ke Nani Kai is a legal short-term rental zone — making this an option for owner-occupants, second-home buyers, or investors looking for income potential. Kaunakakai town is about a 25-minute drive, the Moloka'i bus runs through the complex, and USDA financing is accepted for those who qualify. This is the West Moloka'i life people quietly dream about — where the days slow down and the welcome is real. 🌺
