Family friendly, quite, clean, and close to the beach. Minor issues with insects which was indicated as a small possibility due to climate.
Quiet hideaway in a growing resort area. Although older, the unit is well maintained, is superbly equipped with amenities for a comfortable life over the 7 weeks we spent there.
We have stayed multiple times in this resort and we enjoy it. We particularly appreciated that this condo was not in direct sunlight. This kept the daytime temperatures very reasonable.
Jean's communication ahead of time was excellent and the listing and the photos gave us accurate information as to what to expect.

It is a nice place. It is a old property but the owner try to make the place nice .we find all we need .
The online description was accurate, the owner is quick to email and answer any questions and gives you lots of information specific to the island beforehand. Check in and out was very easy. Linens all smelled fresh, though there was a little dead millipede(?) in one of the beds, and more and more came into the condo each day. It is the rainiest island, so maybe that just comes with the territory. I don't know that anywhere else would have been any different. The A/C was a must. I can't imagine staying on the island without it. We seemed to have neighbors (saw cars in the parking lot) but for the most part the grounds were quiet and the pool was mostly ours. There were plenty of neat beaches/hikes/sites nearby. We didn't walk to them because we didn't want to carry our gear, but it was probably possible. Condo had nice beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, an umbrella, and plenty of towels. One caveat, we are a 6 person family, and though our little kids didn't mind sleeping on the hide-a-bed, it was cramped when we tried to gather in the family room or kitchen. For those with a 6 person family, you might opt to say somewhere bigger.
This condo was in a fantastic location in Poipu! It was a 10 minute walk to Brennecke’s Beach and a 6 min drive to Shipwreck Beach. The condo complex was very quiet and peaceful when we were there, which was perfect for using the onsite pool. The condo had all the kitchen amenities we needed for making meals, but we did for most of our meals. I couldn’t figure out how to work the air conditioner in the upstairs bedroom so we just slept in the downstairs bedroom. There were three large tower fans and a ceiling fan in the kitchen that we kept on all of the time with the windows open. The condo stayed pretty comfortable with the fans and windows open. The best part of the condo was Jean, the host. She is excellent with communication. There were a couple of minor glitches while we were there and Jean was very attentive to address them. For example, the carafe for the coffee maker had a crack and Jean responded to my email within 30 minutes and ordered a new one as soon as I let her know. Jean relies on her guests to address anything that needs to be fixed in the condo and she was very appreciative of me letting her know about the minor things that needed to be fixed. The condo is a little dated in some aspects but, overall, it was a great place to stay. If we visit Kauai again, I will be booking Jean’s condo again.
The unit had all of the accommodations we needed and was very comfortable for our stay.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the property. The owner was great to work with and provided a lot of helpful local information. One of the best stock condos I have ever rented. The pool was recently resurfaced and was great and very convenient. The location was close to beaches and restaurants although there is some hilly terrain (since you are in a crater) Loved all the vegetation and bird life. And no chickens in sight!
My partner and I had a lovely time staying here. The location was great and we loved how quiet the neighborhood is. The house is really nice too. Highly recommended!
The property was clean and comfortable and very close to the beach. Lots of beach equipment available for use. The property owner was great to work with and provided lots of helpful information about the area.

We enjoyed the thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the condo, we just wish we could have stayed longer! :) Everything was awesome!
I have stayed twice before on Kauai. This was far and above the best home I have had there. I say home because I felt at home as soon as we walked in. It is in a small crater, don't worry it's extinct, as a result there is no sounds from the surrounding area. The area in lush and green, this helps reduce sounds from within the crater. There are NO chickens. The house itself is fully stocked with everything you need for keeping house, far beyond anywhere else I have stayed in all of Hawaii. The bed in the master bedroom is perfect. I can't think of anything negative to say about our experience there. I want to thank the owners for making this a perfect vacation.
We loved the convenient location of this condo. It was so close to the beach and local restaurants. It was comfortable for a family, with two floors. We had some issues with bugs, but the host responded promptly and had them out to spray as soon as they could come, given the holiday. It was nice to have boogie boards and beach chairs available, as we were traveling from far away! Laundry on-site was a plus.
Excellent communication from Jean on everything needed for a trip to Kauai and details about the condo. Beautiful grounds, very close to the ocean and places to eat.
The property was close enough to the beach for a short walk to Poipu Beach and Shipwreck Beach. You can reward yourself with great food at Brennecke's or Puka Hot Dog, which are right across from Poipu Breach. The owner (Jean) provided all the details we needed to know about the property and Kauai. You only share a common wall with one other unit and since it's 2-stories, you have no one above you. There is plenty of parking and each condo has assigned parking. It's very quiet during the day and night. The condo has everything you need away from and just need food if you'd like to cook your own meals. They have a grill and covered patio by the pool house. The condo is well-maintained and clean. My only complaint would be the sprinkler going off at 5am daily and when it shoots at the dried-up rubber tree leaves, it's not easy trying to sleep in. I would definitely stay at condo 27 again!
