We had a fabulous week staying here! Everything was super clean, all the amenities were exactly as listed, Sara was extremely responsive and helpful. There is a wee bit of street noise, but the lovely waves crashing right next to the condo were so wonderful we didn’t pay much attention to the street. Easy location to get everywhere on the island as well.

We loved staying at this cozy property, perfect for my surfer husband and me. Great king bed, fully equipped kitchen, and a lovely ocean view from the patio. Maybe add one more lamp next to the loveseat. Thank you for providing baggies! So useful when traveling. Sara was completely accommodating to our schedule and all the instructions were very clear. We would stay here again!

You can tell Sara takes great care of this property. Super clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen had all the extras we need to cook breakfast, including baggies to take lunch to the beach. She has also thought of all the things you need on the beach but can't bring with you from the mainland- sand buckets for kids, cooler, bug spray, beach chairs, nice beach towels! She has thought of everything. She is right about opening the front slated door and the back door- you will get all the trade winds keeping you cool. And if that isn't enough, she has provided two loungers and a table and chairs to sit on the lanai for ocean gazing. The location was convenient to all the south shore activities. Would book again!

We loved this spot! Being on the ground floor with the ocean breeze flowing through was amazing. The view of the water, the short lawn walk to the best sunset-watching spot, and being literally next to The Beach House restaurant made it feel like the perfect location.Pro tip: Bring a bottle of wine and a beach towel out to the grass and order takeout from The Beach House at least once. It’s honestly better than eating inside—true oceanfront dining.One heads-up: the unit is close to the road, so it can be a bit loud at night. But with earplugs, it’s totally worth it. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed for a week of beach days and relaxing.A true sanctuary. We’d absolutely stay here again.

We stayed in this unit for two nights and found the unit to be neat and tidy, with many thoughtful touches added by the manager, Sara.Throughout the process and during the stay, the communications and instructions were excellent. There was an issue that came up during our stay and Sara jumped right on it and had the matter resolved quickly.I am certain you will not find a better Kauai Property Manager to insure you have a great stay.

We had a fantastic stay at Sara’s place. The condo was perfect and had all we needed. The back patio is jaw dropping as the ocean waves roll in right there! Amazing place for morning coffee or a night cap. The beach gear was so helpful. We took advantage and went snorkeling and to the beach. Sara was a great host; very responsive. She even came over and fixed a wifi issue. Thanks for having us!

The property was great, right on the water. One of our favorite things to do was to grab a coffee and watch the surgery in the morning. Very relaxing! We went all over the island while here, and this felt like a pretty good jumping off spot. Sara was great, very responsive and helpful. We would definitely pick this location when visiting again!

The condo is situated perfectly in the southern part of the island with access to beaches, restaurants and shopping. It serves as a great launching spot to travel to the other island regions for hiking, sightseeing and activities. This is our second stay at the condo and we will continue to stay here in the future. The host Sara is helpful, accommodating, and very kind. She was always available and communicated very quickly.

This is the perfect spot if you want to be close to the sea. A short stroll along the grass brings you to the best sunset views on the island. Condo was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend and would love to stay again soon.

Wonderful place to stay in Koloa, great property and perfect place to have as a home base. Walking distance to restaurants, the beach, shopping and also a close drive to much more. The condo was clean with a great view and the boat was kind and helpful. I will definitely stay again.

First of all: Sara was an extremely nice host and responded instantly to all our questions and requests. We found the apartment very clean and even equipped with a small welcome package of some local coffee and snacks - which we really enjoyed. The apartment Is perfectly located at the shore and you have a nice view over the sea from the terrace. As we are used to a bit lower temperatures we enjoyed the A/C

Amazing property right on the water next to world class surfing destination. This is a waterfront condo that has everything you need to have a great trip! The owners were very helpful and have everything in the unit, including snorkeling sets, beach chairs, boogie boards, coolers, ect... This property is set centrally located in town and close to all destinations. I would definitely stay here again!

It was a great place for our two last nights. Close to family in another unit and great restaurants. Just wish there had been a pool but watching the beautiful ocean was perfect.

Kemper D.6.0/10

The location is great. Grass outside the back for kids to play (I did yoga). If you walk around the property, there is some great surfing to watch. Condo is well worn and the pull out was super uncomfortable. You could barely cut with the dull knives. I had to kill a roach every day I was there.

Good complex location. Unit location does not have the best water views, but is nice. Unit smaller than I expected but ok for 2 people. Furnishings and accessories good. AC is good in main room, bedroom is difficult to keep cool. Size of unit dictates small amt of cloths hanging space. Overall decent value with price considered

Jason C.10.0/10

Stayed at Sara's for two days before hitting the Kalalau trail. She accommodated a 90' early check in, by ensuring the condo was pristine. Everything was well thought out and appointed, and the condo provided a relaxing zen feel that prepared me to enjoy the hike upon checking out. Would be interested in staying here for a proper holiday, rather than a luxury staging area before the beach.

Indra K.10.0/10

The condo is located in a beautiful area of Koloa in Poipu. The pictures are accurate. The interior of the condo was newly updated and decorated nicely. Everything was super clean and we had everything we needed. The owner Sara, was very responsive and communicated quickly. We didn’t need anything but I could tell she would have helped us if we did. Also, she loves her home and the island, too. There’s the personal commitment. There are beach chairs to take out to the lawn on the front of the building to watch the sunsets ( incredible), the surfers, listen to the surf or watch the wedding couples take pictures. For a fabulous dinner walk next door (literally) to The Beach House. But be sure to make reservations a few days in advance. The island itself is magical and the location of the condo allows you to go to Waimea Canyon, Waimea Falls, the Botanical Garden tour, Blowhole, then around the island to go tubing , Then to beautiful Hanalei Bay and the town of Hanalei and don’t forget to get a Shave Ice. Enjoy!!!
