Aikane is Hawaiian for 'friendly' which best describes this delightful beach house. Ocean proximity gives you the convenience of a short walk to a variety of beaches. Walk past 2 homes to the ocean then along the coast past 3 more to reach the first of several beaches, body surfing, snorkeling lagoon and grassy play areas.
Cool and comfortable, I designed our home to harness cross ventilation from the cooling trade winds. Ceiling fans, quiet split-system ductless A/C and covered parking at your front door are especially nice on the warmest Hawaiian days.
Our home was extensively renovated in 2023 including new windows, quiet split-system A/C units, thermal reflective roof, solar and more. This really is a cool place to stay.
Travel Light. Aikane is equipped with lots of beach stuff (boogie boards, noodles, beach chairs, coolers, sand toys). We also provide cable WiFi, drip coffee maker, full separate sets of bath and beach towels, washer/dryer and lots more. We recommend guests bring their own masks, snorkels, fins and life jackets, if desired, to ensure proper fit.
Bedroom 1: king size bed with ensuite full bath and walk-in double shower.
Bedroom 2: 2 twins OR convert to 1 comfortable king bed.
Bedroom 3: 2 twins OR convert to 1 comfortable king bed.
For king beds, we secure the twins together with a special horizontal strap and center piece covered with a king size topper and quality bedding. We'll have everything set to your preference before arrival.
The 6 person maximum counts the youngest to oldest. We have bedding for 6 guests. No sofa sleepers or futons. Please read through the policies to be sure this is a good fit before booking.

This house was perfect for the 6 of us and the host Chris was so helpful and attentive. The house is 100 yards from the ocean and had all the amenities we needed. It is also stocked with plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc. Look no further for your place to stay in Poipu. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai.

Lovely home to spend a week in Kauai. Clean and extremely well stocked with additional items typically not provided in rental properties (toiletries, paper products, number of beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels, etc.) Chris (the owner) stopped by to bring us some fresh fruit and removed some ripe bananas from the property's tree. Along with the additional fruit we purchased, we make unbelievable smoothies during the week. The location could not be better. Two minute walks to see sunrises and sunsets at Poipu Beach. We drove over 800 miles during our 9 days visiting so many beautiful beaches, sites and hiked several half and all day trails. Also always fun to stop and shop at some great outdoor malls. We were so fortunate that the weather was perfect the week between Christmas to after New Years. Chris sent a thoughtful thank you text after our stay and we replied that we hope our future travels take us back to their home and Kauai. If you are thinking of staying at this home you don't be disappointed!

We chose this location because we read that good weather in the winter is on the South Shore and we were not disappointed. Brennecke's Beach for riding the waves was just a short walk and with a beach cart available it made carrying chairs, boogie boards, snorkling gear, etc (all of which Chris has available!) an easy trek. Poipu Beach located adjacent to Brennecke's is great for snorkeling. And the location is an easy drive from the airport as well as convenient to Costco and Walmart for grocery runs. Chris was a wonderful host and his place provided an inviting and comfortable place to stay during our visit. Should we find an opportunity to return to this beautiful island, we most certainly would choose to stay at Chris'.

Great location in Poipu - easy walking to Brennecke's, Poipu and Waiohai Beach. House was well equipped with beach chairs, boogie boards, coolers etc. Host was very responsive to any texts.

The house was beautiful -- clean, all the appliances worked and close to the beach. The host was truly outstanding. I had one minor problem, texted him, and he replied immediately and fixed it on our schedule. He also told us some history of Kauai only a local would know!

Chris was a fabulous host, and the house was terrific to stay at. Steps to the beach, which we did every day, nice and quiet in the evenings.
We will look forward to returning again in the future for another fun filled week!

We really enjoyed our stay! The location is perfect with a quick walk to two of the best beaches (Brenneckes & Poipu). Plus the layout of the house is great (where the downstairs quarters could be completely secluded if one desires). The host was great and easy to work with. We already miss waking up to that ocean view every day!

Excellent location and Chris does a great job of providing tips for local activities and sights. Great spot on a beautiful island, the beach supplies were much appreciated as well.

There were five of us staying in this wonderful home. the home was well-equipped with everything to prepare meals. There were plenty of beach toys. Nice having the line outside to hang our wet clothing. The outdoor tap/shower to rinse the sand off our feet. We loved the location near Brennecke Beach for boogie boarding, close to restaurants, the Heritage trail, and Poipu Beach. Watching the turtles come to shore at night.
Chris was an excellent host.
