Rental Details
Property Overview
Aloha! Come bring your ohana (family) and friends to sit on our beautiful wrap around patio at our beautiful Pu'uhonua (place of refuge) with breathtaking tropical views. The great room and kitchen are the heart of Pu'uhonua located on the 2nd floor featuring wrap around windows making it feel like you are experiencing the outside from within. This arrangement allows guests the option of making meals at home while still enjoying every part of Kauai's beauty. The amazingly grand lanai allows for outdoor dining under the stars providing a large gathering area, but Pu'uhonua also offers the privacy of three bedrooms (1 upstairs and 2 downstairs) each having their own complete bathroom and private tranquil lanai. Each room has its own ceiling fan for additional comfort with the cool tropical trade wind breeze. For those of you who need to stay in touch with the real world we offer free wireless internet service.
When you are on vacation it is all about location and our open air Pu'uhonua home sits in the lushly landscaped 70 acre Poipu Kai Resort conveniently located between Shipwrecks Beach and Poipu
Beach. Poipu Beach has been rated as one of the top ten beaches in North America featuring a peaceful 'baby beach' for keiki (child) to play in the sun, while still staying cool. If you are interested in snorkeling, then Poipu beach can offer you a variable paradise of beautiful and exotic tropical fish. If you are more of a boogie boarding thrill seeker then Shipwrecks Beach is the place for you with some of the best surf on the island. The best part about all of this is that these beaches are simply a 15 minute walk on the green belt of Poipu Kai and we will provide everything you will need to enjoy a day at the beach including snorkel gear, boogie boards, umbrellas, coolers, beach chairs, mats, and beach towels!!!
If you need a break from the beach, this rental is also apart of the Poipu Kai Resort Complex allowing access to numerous amenities including resort pool, jacuzzi, and multiple tennis courts. If you are interested in taking a swing at Kauai's most prestigious golf courses than you need to look no further than Poipu. Our rental is down the road to the Poipu Bay Golf course, which is home to the illustrious PGA Grand Slam.
Historic Koloa Town, Poipu Shopping Center, and Kukui'ula Village Shopping Center are about 3 miles away from the rental offering a mixture of amazing restaurants (Keoki's and Roy's are amazing), unique shops, and convenient grocery stores. Poipu is ideally located on the sunny south side of the island with equal traveling distance between the lushly vibrant North Shore and the scenic 'West Side' with it's breathtaking Waimea Canyon (The Grand Canyon of the Pacific) and the spectacular shear cliffs of the Na Pali Coast all seen from Koke'e State Park.
Having all of this adds up to a restful and invigorating stay on this beautiful Garden island of Kauai! E komo mai (come and enjoy)!!

Guest Reviews
Reviews
We enjoyed our stay immensely. The house is very accommodating and the location is perfect for walking to either shipwreck or poipu beach. No AC in the house so it did get warm on occassion (we stayed in December) but overall, loved it and would stay here again!
Home was in a great location and plenty of room for our family. My only negative was it wasn’t very clean in some spots and a lot of the lights and fans didn’t work. I would stay here again. I enjoyed the beach gear provided and a huge washer and dryer!
The host was very accommodating for an early check in. The place felt very homey and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend.
The location of the property was beautiful, situated in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The check-in process was seamless and efficient. However, we did encounter a few issues during our stay. One of the guests experienced itching after using the duvet cover, which was concerning. Additionally, small cockroaches appeared from the shower drain, which was quite unpleasant. The sound of the shower faucet was also extremely loud, making it somewhat uncomfortable to use.
We have been to several islands but this house was by far the most comfortable place we’ve stayed in. Spacious and well stocked. It had most of what was needed for a perfect vacation. Hedy provided beach necessities, like toys, towels, chairs, umbrellas, snorkeling gear, etc. What really caught my eye was how well organized and labeled everything was. My family and I all agreed that this felt like a home away from home!
We had a great time in this house. Big enough for family of 5 adults and one toddler. Have everything we need.
The house had everything we needed. It was spacious and accommodating. Very close to everything, just in the perfect location.
I really liked that it was quiet and right next to the grass/Path walk way down to a.good view beach. Good restaurants and snorkeling/surfing was less than 10 minutes away (I didnt surf). I did golf the corse that was 3 mintues down the road, Poipu Bay and it was great, pricy, but great views. I was there for a week long golf trip and didnt want to do the hotel/condo thing and this place was perfect.
We hope to return. It is a magical home.Perfect location, property & amenities. Excellent communication with the host. I had trouble with the key to the pool gate, so we weren’t able to see the pool/hot tub after a walk, but we preferred the beaches. I’m curious if other times of the year are hotter, because my mother-in-law took some time to get used to the fact that like most homes in Hawaii, they don’t have full house AC, but have excellent ocean breezes,
We were a group of scuba divers who need lots of space to rinse, hang and dry our scuba gear. The house was wonderful for this purpose. In particular, there is a large deck area for drying equipment. This is an older home, yet was very clean and well equiped for our group. We did not have any issues during our stay so interaction with the property manager was limited. We were grateful to be allowed access to the garage which is where the washer / dryer are located. Beds and bedrooms were comfortable, AC and fans were very effective. We would definately stay at this home again.
Our time at this house was so so amazing! I have three kids ages 12,14,24 this house was so perfect for us literally could not have been better! Each of us had so much privacy we all were able to feel so at home! My oldest had the room with the queen bed and he was surprised the first use of the bathroom with a spray in the face we all died laughing there is a bidet so be warned but we all had a good laugh! We loved the location we would all walk barefoot to the beach at sunset to literally swim with the sea turtles. While we watched the sunset! Our time was so magical and I don’t think it could have been better!
This home is incredible. It's beautiful, spacious, is in a perfect location to walk to the beach, and everything is well stocked and planned out inside. Can't wait to come back!
Great house just off the greenbelt that connects Poipu Kai to the Grand Hyatt. The location is excellent. The house was very comfortable for our group of 4 adults and 2 children. The house is very well stocked with beach supplies (towels, chairs, mats, boogie boards, wagon, snorkles, flippers) which allowed to enjoy days at the many nearby beaches. The rental provides access to the large swimming pool near Kalapaki Joe's. There is also a tennis centre which can be used for a modest fee and has numerous courts for tennis and pickle ball. The host was extremely accommodating and allowed us to have a late check-out which was very much appreciated as we had a late flight home. Overall a great property in an amazing location.
Our family friend group travel to places to dive and we found this house to be perfect for our group! Pictures are accurate, lots of communal and private areas and perfect location. It was so easy and pleasant to get around. We'd come back in a heartbeat! Oh, and the host wasr responsive and accommodating!
We were delighted with the location, outdoor space and overall soul of this home. It’s weathered and thoughtfully laid out for privacy and good times.
Everything you could ever need to feel at home and HAPPY. Perfect location, wonderful spaces in and outdoors. Seriously, this place is stocked with all the things you’d want from umbrellas, chairs, snorkel gear, to high chairs, and I’d bet they’d even include a Christmas tree. Thanks again for another wonderful stay.
The check-in process was so easy!! Communication back and forth with the owner was effortless. If I had a question, Heddy responded promptly without hesitation. Once we were checked in, we enjoyed getting to know more about the home and the area and island in a collection of notes and literature kept on the coffee table. We were over 5,000 miles away from home, yet we had the comforts of home. The kitchen had quite a few staples in terms of basic oils and seasonings and any kind of cookware or dishes you may need. I loved that we could have the convenience of cooking some meals at home. One of my favorite things about the home was how each bedroom had its own little private lanai. Everyone had their own space to get away from the group if needed or to read one of the many novels and books throughout the home. Our family also appreciated the on site laundry facilities and having access to numerous snorkel gear sets and boogie boards and beach chairs. Nothing beats the Poipu beaches. We were on the island for a family wedding and the location offered activities and things to do for a variety of age groups. We loved our stay and would love to come back here in the future!
Had a lot to offer
This booking was a nightmare! We arrived for checkin a little after 5 as check in is not till that time. We were on a tight schedule as we had dinner to go to for a relatives birthday. We were shocked to arrive with nothing cleaned, beds not made, dirty linens on one of the beds, dirty towels, dirty sinks, cockroaches, ants, hair, dirty floors, dirty kleenex on bathroom counters, old food all in the fridge, others belongings and so much more! I pulled the dirty linens off of the main bed upstairs and there was grass all over the bed protector and even worse all the pillows had large yellow stains on them! We messaged this host but we got no response, we called VRBO who contacted the host and said she told them she got no messages which was false. We had to leave for dinner and it wasnt till another half hour later that she responded to the messages she claimed "she never got". We were upset and asked for a refund as we did not want to stay there with as filthy as it was and with what the actual bedding looked like. The host insisted this was fixable and was sending her cleaner while we were out to dinner. We got back and it was poorly cleaned! Same linen and same nasty bedding and pillows yet host insists on only a one night refund as she claims this was fixable and "we chose to leave" How can someone justify allowing guests to sleep on nasty bedding like that under those circumstances! We were fooled by previous reviews!!!! Would never recommend this place!
Our group consisted of 3 fathers and 3 sons for a basketball tournament in Kalaheo. The house was perfect and had everything we needed. Great location too.
Such a great home and location. We split our time between two properties but I would have been happy with just this place! Perfect location.
I stayed here with my husband, our 5 year old son and his 2 grandmas. It was the perfect location to our favorite beaches. This house was very comfortable and spacious, we would stay here again!
This house was great…better than expected and better than the pictures. Close to great beaches. Plenty of room for all of us.
My stay was full of great memories! I could find everything I needed.
This house felt like our home! A great place to start off our day with a big hearty breakfast, and be able to come home at the end of our day exploring the island and make a delicious dinner in a short amount of time. The amenities were great and we had everything we needed - well stocked kitchen tools and dishes/cookware for cooking. Comfortable living and sleeping areas. Great location with a short walk to multiple beaches in the area. Enjoyed the use of the pool and hot tub not too far walking distance away.
This house was in a great location for all island activities--all within an hours drive. There was a large open kitchen, dinning, and living area with comfortable seating to watch movies (which we did every night after our busy daytime activities.) The house is in a safe neighborhood with access to a pool and jacuzzi and only about a ten minute walk to the beach--for the two young adults and about a 15 minute walk for the older generation. (There were five adults in our group--three parents and two adult children in their twenties.) Located in the garage and available for use, is everything a guest may need for a day at the beach. We used the towels, umbrella, snorkeling gear, body boards, foldable wagon, cooler on wheels, backpack cooler, and beach chairs. There are also items for use for small children and babies. The home was decorated with a personal, homey, island touch. (Not ABC Store touristy at all.) Each of the three bedrooms were very private and had their own lanai. When we were there, Poipu beach had 12 sea turtles on the beach and 1-2 sea lions basking/sleeping in the sun during the day. There are jigsaw puzzles, playing cards, board games provided for rainy day activities as well. (We had only a half day of rain and we decided to spend that time buying groceries at Costco and Walmart and eating at area restaurants.) We had an enjoyable time and would definitely stay here again!
We split our trip between two locations, and we wish we had more time here. It was a great, relaxing house.
Loved the location! Such a great spot!
