About the Business

Located at 6867 Koolau Road in Kilauea, Hawaii, The Palmwood is a unique lodging experience inspired by the mountain Ryokans of Japan. Nestled among the lush green hills of Moloa'a on the North Shore of Kauai, this premium villa offers a tranquil retreat close to Batu Bolong beach. Founded by Eddi Henry in 2006, The Palmwood serves as a "think and action tank" dedicated to addressing pressing social justice issues. Guests have the opportunity to engage in conversations about social renewal and be part of a revolution for change.
Embodying the Japanese principles of Wabi Sabi, The Palmwood celebrates the perfectly imperfect and provides a sanctuary for both body and mind. The elegantly appointed spaces feature furniture from Australian brand Pacific Green Furniture and local artisans, offering rustic charm with modern luxuries. The location is ideal for those seeking a peaceful destination away from the crowds, yet central enough to explore all sides of the island.
The East Room, the Bungalow, and the West Room are popular accommodation options at The Palmwood, each offering unique amenities such as private entrances, en-suite showers, and hot tubs nestled in private gardens. Guests can enjoy the lush surroundings and serene atmosphere while experiencing the transformative power of responsibility and empowerment.
Testimonials from guests praise The Palmwood for its luxurious yet authentic atmosphere, generous hosts, and commitment to giving back to the community through donations to the Delancey Street Foundation. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or a place to engage in meaningful conversations about social change, The Palmwood offers a truly unforgettable experience in the heart of Hawaii.
Reviews
"Palmwood is a beautiful and private slice of the paradise that is Kauai. The grounds and the amenities are terrific and the service is amazing. Kelly and Michael are wonderful hosts. They were so attentive and helpful for us to find things around the island that would be of interest to us. The breakfasts and treats were unexpectedly amazing and delightfully delicious. We cannot recommend Palmwood enough for the serenity that is so complimentary of Kauai."
"Our stay at the Palmwood was absolutely incredible!! Everything about it was almost straight out of a dream. I even told my husband that I imagined this was what heaven would look like. We stayed in the Bungalow—it was comfortable, immaculately clean, and peaceful. The grounds were covered in beautiful flowers and trees with the most beautiful jungle mountain backdrop. Breakfast was delightful and coffee on the lanai was my favorite part of the day. I highly recommend the Palmwood!! If you want to connect with nature and feel at peace, stay here. The entire team was so kind and made our stay perfect. I can only hope that one day we will make it back to Kauai! I’ve already sent the link to the Palmwood to several people telling them they need to visit! Thank you for a wonderful experience and hope we meet again. Thank you for creating an atmosphere for my husband and I to reconnect on our 11 year anniversary trip."
"The Palmwood is a truly magical place. My fiance and I stayed in the Bungalow for our birthdays and we were awestruck by the room, the views, and the staff. Kelly made the most incredible breakfasts that were somehow a perfect balance of healthy and flavorful. She was also very helpful in providing recommendations for hikes, restaurants, and other activities. We were sad to go and will definitely be back!"
"We had an absolutely incredible stay at the palmwood. The grounds are gorgeous- West room view from the hot tub is INCREDIBLE. Kelly was a delightful host and we appreciated all the local and fresh produce incorporated into the daily breakfast. This is the only place we would consider staying again if we come back to Kauai."
"Beautifully situated in the mountains, in between the lively Princeville town in the North and the airport in the East. Service is fantastic. Kelly took care of us, catering to our specific dietary needs for our daily breakfasts and ensured our room was tidy and well kept. The West Room is modern with new amenities and the private hot tub with a backdrop of the lush mountains is a huge plus! Eddi, the owner, was attentive and helped connect us to local planners to ensure our trip was filled with fun. This is a must for special anniversaries and honeymoon, perfect for romantic getaways! I hope we get the privilege of coming back one day. Thanks again Palmwood crew, for the trip of a lifetime."
