This was such a fantastic stay. Amazing house, beautifully decorated. We felt like everything we could possibly ask for had already been attended to and supplied. My husband and I slept in the bunk room upstairs with the kiddos and they are all true queens. Very comfortable beds. The other adults slept downstairs and they really enjoyed their rooms too. I took an afternoon nap on the swing bed (so peaceful)! Access to the Poipu Beach Athletic Club was a HUGE benefit for us. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the atmosphere and beverages. We ate fresh mangoes right off the tree and then walked down to Poipu Beach every evening to check out the turtles. Pro-tip #1: The turtles also surf in the waves all day at the little cove just at the end of the street. Pro-tip #2: Da Crack Mexican food makes for a wonderful and cost effective dinner! We brought it back to the house one night and had dinner on the gorgeous back deck. Mahalo, Tina! Thank you for sharing your lovely vacation home with us!

Beautiful, comfortable home in fabulous location. We loved being able to walk to beaches to swim, snorkel, body surf and see the turtles. One evening we saw the turtles by the full moon, simply magical. The use of the club was great to play pickleball just a short drive away. Thank you for sharing your home, we are grateful for the wonderful family memories created there.

The house was beautiful, just the right size for our family of 7. The location was perfect, super easy walk to two awesome beaches (one good for boogie boarding and the other good for snorkeling and calm swims ) Good central location to access interesting sites on the island . Absolutely LOVED it!

We recently stayed for the second time - both with family and friends. Honu House is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the Poipu beaches - just 1 block away. They provide everything needed for special cooking at home nights, to beach fun. We love the covered porch, outdoor showers and fully equipped kitchen. Can't say enough - the host is very responsive - thank you for another great stay!

We had the most amazing time staying in the Honu House. Well named with the Poi Pu Beach and turtles just a short walk away. Thank you for sharing your beautiful vacation home with our family. We found everything we could want including the beach chairs and wagon to pull them in. Simply the best VRBO we have experienced. We hope to visit again to see all the things that we didn't have the time to fit into the schedule.

We had a great trip for our entire family at the Honu House. It’s practically brand new, well laid out and has everything you need for a great stay at the beach. We plan on rebooking every time we come with kids/grandkids and friends.

Perfect location steps from the beach with plenty of room for our family. Well equipped kitchen and comfy mattresses. Excellent set up for hanging out in the large family room with accordion doors to lanai. All sorts of beach items available and the hot tub was fantastic!

We came to Kauai to celebrate my 40th birthday. There were 5 adults in our party. We loved the king size beds on the first floor and the queen bunk beds on the 2nd floor. The house had everything we needed, except the dryer was broken during our stay.
The house was super clean and beautiful. We sat out on the lanai for breakfast and we loved the house had AC and was always a great temperature.
The location was perfect. Walking to the beach or to get a hot dog. We also loved the access to the club to swim and play pickleball.
I would recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai. Tina was friendly and responsive. 10/10 recommend!

Your house was perfect for our group.
We were 7 adults and one baby 9 months old.
Your kitchen has all the necessary tools for preparing meals. The bedrooms are so nice with the AC. The outdoor covered lanai is so relaxing. Walking distance to the beach was the best. We took advantage of the beach chairs and umbrellas We will be returning. Thank you!!

This house has everything you would want for a perfect stay in Poipu paradise. We all loved the outdoor shower, hot tub, massive lanai for family dinners (grill Costco steaks), balcony lanai with swinging bench, short walk to the beach, great mix of fans and A/C, and overall charm of design and decor. Host Tina was extremely professional and accomodating. We hope we can make it back soon!

Tina is an amazing host, and this is an amazing house! It's right around the corner from Poipu Beach, making it a great launch pad to explore the island. It's our second time staying here and won't be our last.

We had two families stay 5 nights in this house. 2 couples with 2 kids each (total of 8). The upstairs bedroom has two sets of large bunk beds, each of which must’ve been at least a full sized bed. The kids loved having this space to themselves! The downstairs has 2 bedrooms with super cozy kings beds and the master bedroom even has an outdoor showers with 2 shower heads! This was a hit with the whole house. The kitchen is beautifully renovated, fully stocked, and had everything we needed, including seasoning. We really appreciated this since it allowed us to cook meals at home more often. The living room had very cozy couches and a big tv which was great for when we just wanted to relax. Best of all was the outside patio…we ate most of our meals out here and the kids loved the access to the back yard. The location is amazing and we walked to Poipu beach most days, which had sea turtles!!
Overall, I highly recommend this house for anyone but especially those with young kids. Both the house itself and the location is utterly amazing!! Tina, the host, was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed to have an amazing vacation.
