Pua Hale was perfect for our travel needs! Andrew sent us very detailed and clear check in instructions and the property was accurately advertised, with all the amenities we needed, from a well-stocked kitchen, to the beach chairs/towels/boogie boards, the close proximity to the beach…and a sweet orange kitty (Bullet) who greeted us frequently as well as the geckos that hung around outside. We had a mishap were we accidentally broke a small hole in the carafe of the coffee maker while washing it, but Andrew brought us a back up carafe in a jiffy, which was very kind. I would definitely stay again at Pua Hale and would recommend to anyone! Mahalo Andrew!
All the amenities you need, easy walk to the beach.
Loved our stay. The accessory dwelling unit was just a couple blocks to the beach, bed was super comfortable, kitchen well equipped, and it was quiet, private, serene and surrounded by lovely landscaping to admire through the windows just as the listing pics show. It’s an older place, and a great value for the price. Plus the owners actually live in the neighboring house so you’re supporting local. The beach chairs, pool noodles, boogie boards and beach towels and laundry room were great to have available. I highly recommend it and would love to stay again some day.
Excellent property very private and serene! A/C if it gets too hot outside! Wonderful owners highly recommend Pua Hale!!
Very clean and functional house with master bedroom with a Japanese flair paper sliding doors for privacy. Very private house with nice garden surround, outdoor private seating and grill. Laundry and garbage disposal! Wonderfully sweet owners! Highly recommend Pua Hale!!! Thank you for a wonderful stay!!
It was clean, comfortable, and private. It was close to the beach, and had everything we needed to cook and hang out at the beach. Andrew was friendly and responded to our requests quickly. We'd stay there again.

All good. Thanks
Our stay was perfect from start to finish! We really enjoyed how relaxing the house was and its proximity to the beach. Everything was super clean and exactly as advertised. We also loved seeing the cute little house lizards on the fence posts. Would definitely stay again!
Very private cottage surrounded by tropical plants and six foot high fence. 9 minute easy walk to poipu beach, puki dog, brennekes restaurant bar.Very affordable. Bed was comfortable. Would totally rent again.
We had a great stay. Pua Hale had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The AC was a plus especially since many properties do not have this amenity. The location is centrally located to the beach and shops around town.
Very private older property that had everything we needed. Kitchen was well equipped but needed maintence and could have been cleaner. Easy straight shot walk to the beach. Great location.
Property is ok. Some minor maintenance on the property would be great. The front gate does not open like it should and sliding glass doors and screens are hard to open. The slats the hold up the mattress have sagged so when you lay in bed your head is lower than the rest of your body, even with pillows.
We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Pua Hale. This home has everything you need to be very comfortable. The host family were amazing. Location was in excellent proximity to Poipu beach and the beautiful southside of Kauai (our favorite). We have found our home away from home!
Nice place, great location. Perfect for my wife and I and two small kids.
We just checked out after an amazing 2 week stay at this property. Very clean & comfortable cottage. Andrew was Great & very helpful with anything we needed. Highly recommend this cottage.
We had a wonderful stay in Kauai and would use this house if we go again
We had a wonderful week stay in this classic, comfortable cottage an easy 20 minute walk from gorgeous Poipu Beach. Everything was as described and pictured. The owner was responsive and helpful in all respects. The cottage sits on his property, but feels completely private and self-contained. Would definitely stay there again.
Perfect location, private & comfortable, couldn't recommend more highly.
Cute stand-alone unit that is very comfortable for couple. Walking to beach(10-15min), shopping, restaurants. Excellent parking off street. Convenient laundry. Unique bathtub/shower combo. Extra amenities include beach chairs, umbrella, towels, boogie boards, etc. Price was better than resorts with much more privacy in clean neighborhood.
We had a great 10-day stay at Pua Hale in Poipu. The place is actually bigger than the pictures - especially the living/dining/kitchen area. It's in a great location - walkable to Poipu Beach (you must go at sunset to watch the turtles come sleep for the night on the shore) and close to shopping/dining, and other beaches. You are at one with nature in the cottage as you'll see and hear tons of birds and geckos. The patio was a nice private area to relax and BBQ in. Loved having a washer/dryer, beach supplies all in great condition (umbrella, towels, chairs, boogie boards) during our stay. Andrew was a great host - we enjoyed chatting with him and meeting his friendly pup!
