The accommodations were very nice and it was well stocked , however the WiFi didn't work and we had a person on the trip who was working from home , also the screens were broken so the house was filled with mosquitoes every night

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location with ample space. We stayed here with our adult sons and their families. The home is equipped with three bedrooms, all with their own bathrooms attached. House well stocked with kitchen appliances and dinnerware. We particularly appreciated the location, within walking distance to two beaches, even for the littles. Also available was a rolling wagon that accommodated beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys (again, all supplied by the owners). Finally, the communication was mostly good (we had AC issues that they responded to immediately), and gave reminders about when to put out garbage and check out. Check-out, by the way, was a short list .... we've stayed other places that require quite a list of to-dos! If we were to come back to this island, we would stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of four, my sister's family of three and our parents all felt very comfortable in this beautiful home. The location is great, we walked to the pool and beach everyday. The only thing I would caution is there is no AC in the shared spaces (this was noted in the listing description). It wasn't a problem for us, the weather was nice, and the fan's provided kept the area cool enough, but I don't know how I would have felt if we came in the middle of the summer or if the weather was very hot!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Located in a very quiet neighborhood, our family of 10 enjoyed this home for a week celebrating an anniversary. One walking path led you to Shipwreck beach and another one the opposite direction led you to the pool, tennis/pickle ball courts, and Brennecke's Beach. Beach chairs, boogie boards, umbrellas, beach towels, ice chest, a wagon, and two bikes were all waiting for us in the garage to use and boy did we use them. Only recommendation would be to have a dining table that can accommodate 10 instead of 8.

Kai Nui was a great location, walking distance to Shipwreck and Poipu beaches. The house is very spacious for our 2 families of 8 people. Lots of beach gear available with a wagon to bring them to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped, but the kitchen table could use a few more chairs to accommodate more than 6 people. All the showers included shampoo, conditioner and body wash, which was nice to have. We would definitely recommend this house to others.

This was a beautiful home to spend our extended family vacation in. Perfect layout and the bunkbeds were great for the kids. Loved having access to extras like beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, sand toys, wagon for little kids, etc. The house is in a quiet, nice neighborhood and close to everything. The paved walking path to the pool and beach was great! Highly recommend this home and hope to stay again in the future!

The house was a wonderful home base for all of our adventures. We ate several meals and most breakfasts there. We enjoyed relaxing on the lanais. We loved walking on the paths to the coffee shop at the Hyatt, to watch the sunrise, to Poipu beach to swim/snorkel/watch the sunset n turtles, and to the pool. We enjoyed the restaurant right next to the pool. We admired all the beautiful flowers and plumeria trees along our walks. My son was so excited there was a lime tree in the back yard.

We had a wonderful time at Kai Nui. There were 8 of us total, 4 adults, 2 kids, and 2 teenagers. The pictures and description were accurate. The home was very clean and the island breeze was lovely with all of the windows open. The lanai was a great place to have a morning cup of coffee. The available beach gear was nice to have, although the umbrellas all could be replaced as they were either broken or barely functioning. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we would stay here again. Mahalo!

The house is beautiful. The location is within walking distance to the beach. The bedrooms and bathrooms are perfect for couples who need their own space. The attached lanai with extra sleeping is nice if you don't mind your children sleeping basically a few feet away from you. The upstairs living area/kitchen/dining area can get pretty warm as this area is not air conditioned, but opening the windows and using the screen door allows it to cool down in the evening. If you plan to be in your bedroom or out exploring during the heat of the day this really isn't an issue.

Beautiful home, clean, and close to everything in Poipu Beach area. We were able to walk to the beaches every day. Quiet and well manicured neighborhood.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home had everything out family of 8 needed to completely enjoy our 10 day vacation. The home is beautiful, clean, modern, and well stocked. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The lack of AC in the living area did not bother us at all. The cross breeze was enough to cool the space. The home is in a lovely quiet neighborhood with nearby walking paths. Poipu beach is a 15 minute walk, made easier with the wagon provided. The pool and tennis/pickle ball courts are a 10 minute walk through the green belt. So glad we booked this place!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a beautiful house in a great, quiet neighborhood, surrounded by palm trees. Every morning I took a 10 minute walk to Shipwreck beach to watch the sunrise. Every afternoon, the family walked to Poipu beach to swim, snorkel, watch the sea turtles. At night, we swam in the pools and hot tubs that were placed throughout the community (key-fab access only).
