Hotel on Molokai
Molokai Ranch
Lodge
At the Molokai Ranch Lodge, you'll feel as if you've stepped back in time to an era where the lilting sounds of the ukulele and graceful sway of hula dancers beckoned visitors. Capturing the warmth and ambiance of Hawaii's cherished 1920's and '30s, the Lodge is an inviting home away from home.
Set upon eight acres at the entrance to quaint Maunaloa Town, the two-story Lodge overlooks wide open pastures and the sparkling Pacific Ocean. Offering the perfect island getaway, the Lodge ensconces guests in casual elegance and rustic charm, capturing the essence of Hawaii's early paniolo and plantation era.
Surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, the Lodge features a cozy Living Room with fireplace, fine dining room, a library, bar & lounge, and wrap-around verandas with spectacular panoramic views. Each of the Lodge's 22 spacious guest rooms offer unsurpassed views of the ocean and are individually appointed with elegant furnishings and cheerful upcountry decor.
Other amenities include a heated swimming pool, fitness center, sauna, and business meeting rooms. Numerous walking paths are located throughout the landscaped grounds as are an herb garden and greenhouse, ideal for private parties and weddings. In addition, Lodge guests have access to all of the activities offered at Molokai Ranch, including horseback riding, mountain biking, ocean kayaking, cultural walks and many more.
