If you are looking for a beautiful, spacious, incredibly clean, affordable condo with fantastic amenities located right in the heart of Poipu….you've come to the right place!! Pakele Kahakai or "Beach Escape" is what our family calls our dream Kauai home. This condo puts you in easy walking distance to world famous beaches, and a very short drive to fantastic shopping, restaurants, golfing, and many other popular attractions! Take a quick stroll just outside the condo on the “Greenbelt Walkway” and you will arrive at Brennecke’s Beach and Poipu Beach in about five minutes, or head the other direction and you can walk to the Grand Hyatt Hotel and Shipwreck Beach in under ten minutes. You could not ask for a more central location in the middle of the action! Poipu Beach has been voted "Best Beach in America" by the Travel Channel and it is not hard to see why. Poipu Beach has a section of calm waters perfect for families with young children, but is also great for snorkeling, swimming, boogie boarding, and surfing.

The front lanai looks out to lush tropical green surroundings with mountain views, and each bedroom has its own private lanai with stunning garden views. Time your stay right and you can literally pick fresh bananas from the tree off the bedroom lanai! Both bedrooms have king beds, and a queen-size very comfy Murphy bed is conveniently tucked away in the dining room area, making for very relaxing sleeping arrangements for up to six guests.

My husband and I stayed here for our 9-day trip, the first vacation we’ve taken just for us in 14 years! We wanted a quiet, comfortable place to call home during our trip. It was important to us to have AC, a full kitchen, and a resort experience. The location couldn’t have been better, with the beach a 10 minute walk away and a pool basically right outside the door. We rented a car so we could easily see the whole island, but there are restaurants in walking distance. The patios were perfect for morning coffee. The AC was ice cold and the furniture was comfortable. We had an excellent stay and found the hosts to be great communicators and very gracious about our requested late checkout. When we return to Kauai, we will definitely book here again!

We loved the condo! Short walk to the beach, had tons of swimming and beach gear. The whole place was spotless! My only complaint is that we were walked in on by the person cleaning the condo at checkout time. As a family with kids we were running a few minutes late and at exactly 10 o' clock the door opened without a knock by the cleaning person. I would stay here again dispite our surprise at checkout lol.

This property is very clean and had many amenities. The washer and dryer in the condo was a big plus.
The downside was the we could not stay longer.

Quick 3 night stay from Oahu…enjoyed our location of the place. Great food at Joe’s pub and close walking access to the beach. We definitely will come back!

We will definitely stay here again! The location is perfect, a 5 minute walk to the beach with everything you need to enjoy yourself from towels to boogie boards to snorkels, chairs, and beach toys plus a wagon to pull it all.
The three lanais are wonderful for sitting out at night or anytime you're in the condo.

The condo was exactly as advertised with bone chilling air conditioners in the bedrooms and fully stocked kitchen and bathroom/showers.
I've actually never stayed in of Vrbo that was as fully stocked. The owner even put frozen juice Popsicles and a bag of ice in the freezer.
The parking was no issue and there was even visitor parking if the second couple had their own rental, so when assigned parking space and one visitor space.
The pools were very nice and uncrowded.
There were no noisy neighbors.
I liked the proximity to Kalapaki Joes and the short walk to the beach and Poipu Park for sunsets..

We had a great stay in this lovely property. Four adults and one infant stayed for a full week. The property was clean, well maintained, and very close to beaches. We were having problems with the VRBO Website and couldn’t access the entry directions. We reachied out to the hosts and they were very gracious in returning our call promptly. When we come back to Kauai we will try to book this property again!

All of the positive reviews of this property were 100% correct. It was clean, comfortable, spacious, and the owners have put a lot of thought and effort into providing everything one could possibly need during a stay. It was an easy 10 minute walk down to the beach and to a couple of casual eating places. After a busy day out, it really felt like we were “coming home”, which you could never say about a hotel room.
We will definitely stay here again when we return to Kauai.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property! Super clean, VERY roomy and close to the beach. The best part about the beach that’s close is it’s literally the best boogie board beach on the island! Beautiful sunsets to be had right down there as well. We also have to say that the closet out the master bedroom had everything imaginable for your visit to the beach. Thank you for sharing all that with us.

Our stay at Poipu Kai was magical! We have three teenage daughters and the condo was nice and spacious. We put one daughter in the Murphy Bed and that worked well. Great to have coffee on the lanai next to the geckos. The condo was well-furnished and a great central location for an easy walk to Poipu Beach and the Hyatt Grand Regency. We had so much fun and highly recommend this place. Thanks!

We had a wonderful time. The property listing is accurate and the property owner/manager was very responsive and let us check out late for a fee which was really helpful as our flight out was not until 10pm. The beach was amazing and the condo property/landscaping was beautiful. Would recommend to anyone. There is a strange smell to the place but if you open up the doors to get the island breeze going it goes away and you don't notice it at all. The murphy bed was comfortable and the air conditioning in the other bedrooms was great. If you plan on using the murphy bed just be aware that there is only a fan in that area so it is hotter than the other rooms for sleeping. So happy we were able to visit this beautiful place.

My family and I stayed in this condo and would easily recommend it to family and friends. The condo was spacious, big comfortable beds and lots of room in the living spaces. The kitchen had all the essentials you need to get through your stay. The real shining moment for this condo is their beach supply closet. Truly you don’t need to think about bringing anything beach related. They have coolers of all types, a beach blanket, beach toys, boogie boards, fins, snorkels, swim shoes, floaties, beach chairs, umbrella, wagon, and things for nearby activities like golf and tennis. We brought a few things like floaties for the kids and beach bags to hold our things and truly we could have skipped it and used things they had. My only hesitation with the condo was the carpet, it was everywhere and very close to white. In a lot of their instructions they were very clear about keeping the carpet pristine and being charged for any spots. I understand this completely but with kids (5y, 3y, and 1y) it is a bit nerve wracking. Overall I suspect we will be staying here again on any subsequent trips to Kauai.
