The Space:
Hurricane Lowell Update (9/9/26): Our thoughts are with everyone on Kauai still recovering from Hurricane Lowell, especially those who lost their homes — parts of the island, including areas of Poipu, were hit hard. For guests with an upcoming stay: we inspected this property in person, found no storm damage, and roads and access here are normal. Recovery across the island is ongoing and will take time. Check kauai.gov for current conditions, or message us with questions about your dates. Mahalo for your patience.

Getting Around:
When visiting Kauai, we highly recommend renting a car to enhance your experience and give you the freedom to explore the island at your own pace. While there are other transportation options available, such as the Kauai Bus, it's important to note that the bus service may not run as frequently as you might expect.
Having a rental car allows you to easily access all the incredible sights and attractions that Kauai has to offer. From the stunning Na Pali Coast to the breathtaking Waimea Canyon, having your own transportation gives you the flexibility to visit these iconic locations on your own schedule.

Guest reviews
While the location is great, the condo definitely needs updating. Very worn, uncomfortable furniture, lights that don’t work, noisy plumbing and no hot water in the bathroom or kitchen sinks. The beach chairs and umbrella were good quality.
Perfect location! The beach is in walking distance. Sea turtles and seals visited the beach daily. The condo was great! We had all the amenities we needed. The portable A/C was wonderful. Stores, restaurant's and food trucks were close by.
