Excellent choice for a family vacation, including our 16 month-old granddaughter. Location was super close to Shipwreck Beach (where the Grand Hyatt is located) and within a short walk of Brennecke and Poipu beaches. Baby Beach, a favorite for our grandaughter, was close by as well. Why we liked it: - the home is well appointed, with everything needed for an enjoyable beach stay. The labeling of what was where was very handy - no hunting to find things or to remember where things belonged. - we didn't have to haul any beach gear; they had everything we needed (and more) available. (Family members scuba diving did bring their own fins, snorkels and goggles, even though some were available to us)- we didn't have to haul any baby gear except a car seat and a few of her favorite small books. A stroller, pack & play bed and lots of toys were available.- the upstairs balcony was perfect. Safely enclosed for a toddler and lots of room for her to roam. Perfect for morning coffee/sunrise and evening cocktails/sunset. A couple of dinners on the grill there as well.- nice yard area for daily bocce ball matches and toddler exploration (not fenced, so we kept an eye on her). She loved spotting lizards and swinging on the shaded porch swing- Koloa is a very short drive away (Big Save, breweries, restaurants, etc) as well as two shopping centers. Lihue also close enough for a major Costco run.A perfect stay!

We loved our time here. The location was perfect for our family with adult kids. Lots to do and easy walk to multiple beaches. Accommodations were exactly as described and the space was clean and stocked with beach equipment. Check in was easy and communication with the host was prompt. We hope to return again in the future and would stay here if possible!

The VRBO was spacious, clean, and extremely well equipped. It had a chef’s kitchen, every beach Amenity you might need, and bicycles. The location is excellent, a quick walk to several beaches and trails. There was privacy for every guest. We can’t wait to return next year! We all had a wonderful time.

In short, we were delighted with our accommodations and accessibility to all the beach toys and recreational opportunities. The care, the cleaninesss, and beauty of the home can’t be overstated. We spoke often about the location and how affords vacationers with abundant choices with activities, shopping, and dining. We’re already working on plans for next year to again stay at this house in Poipu. We couldn’t be happier, and more grateful.

We had the best time at Hale Poipu! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay close to the beach with plenty of room and amazing views. Our family (with teens & kids) couldn't have asked for a better stay. We loved spending time on the huge front deck with ocean views. The rooms were clean, spacious and the kitchen had great appliances with everything you could have needed. The kids loved having the bikes and beach gear right there and ready to use. So close to great restaurants and multiple beaches!
Hosts had excellent communication and were very accommodating. Could not have asked for a better property or experience! We would love to come back again soon!

Everything about our stay was spectacular. The place was perfectly appointed exactly as stated online. The location was terrific - walk to just about everything you could want - beaches with sea turtles, monk seals, sunsets and surfing, Grand Hyatt luau and its amenities and swimming, tennis and pickleball if you wanted to. The host was very pleasant to communicate with. Wish we could visit this place every year!

Our young family of 5 (kids 6, 10 & 10) had a wonderful four days at Hale Poipu over my husband’s birthday. The house was as wonderful as we had hoped it would be. Our twin boys loved having their own space downstairs. The house was equipped with everything you could ever possibly want or need. The outside space was as awesome as the inside space and we spent more time at home than we had anticipated.
My boys used the tennis club daily and the pool at Poipu Kai. We had a wonderful walk on the cliff trail to the cave and spent a morning at Waimea Canyon which was easily accessible and worth doing.
I would recommend this place without question and we are already considering when we may be able to return.
Thank you for being wonderful hosts and for all the little touches that made a huge difference.

This property is top notch in every respect. We stayed with our kids, family and grandchild. Fantastic location - scenic and easy walks to the beaches. Beautiful home with plenty of comfortable space. In addition, this house had every amenity you could ask for - coolers, boogie boards, beach chairs, sand toys - they really thought of everything. I would absolutely recommend this property.

We had a fabulous week in Kauai with our two adult daughters, son (by marriage) and 18 month old grandson. Perfect location and perfect home. We had everything needed for cooking, baby and beach. Wonderful property! Couldn’t ask for anything more! Hope to be back soon for another stay at same home. Great communication for the few questions I had prior to our week. Highly recommend!
