Prime Kauai Location

Positioned just minutes from the pristine sands of Pila‘a Beach and a short five-minute drive from the charming town of Kilauea, the Maile Wai Estate is perfectly positioned. Enjoy access to local organic markets, restaurants, yoga studios, juice bars, and boutique coffee shops; all while being tucked away in a quiet, gated sanctuary on Kauai’s North Shore.

Tucked along the serene Waikalua Reservoir and surrounded by lush green mountains, the Maile Wai Estate offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a private retreat that represents the pinnacle of luxury island living. Now offered through a live auction, this extraordinary property blends visionary architecture, elegant design, and untouched natural beauty, and bidding is officially open.

Craftsmanship and Nature Converge

At the heart of this 13.45-acre estate lies a breathtaking residence crafted by renowned architect Gary Tobey, who is celebrated for expertly and artfully integrating nature and structure. Designed to frame the lush surroundings and invite the outdoors in, every element of the Maile Wai home evokes peace, clarity, and refinement amongst the island’s raw beauty.

Spacious yet intimate, the residence features four private suites, each with outdoor access, allowing guests and residents alike to fully embrace the tropical environment. Expansive lanais, breezy open interiors, and stunning mountain and reservoir views make every moment here feel like a getaway.

A Designer’s Thoughtful Touch

As marvelous and awe-inspiring as the structure is amongst its natural surroundings, there is a distinct, warm, and nurturing atmosphere that greets you upon entering the estate. The interiors of Maile Wai are the work of Peggy North, founder of Fire and Crème in California, whose signature design style is evident throughout. With a refined blend of modern elegance and eclectic island charm, Peggy’s vision infuses the space with comfort and understated sophistication.

Very nice property. Is Short term vacation rental allowed on the property? If so what is the minimum night stay for a guest?

Thanks,
Shawn
