Good location, quiet and roomy, pools were fine, the A/C was lacking - okay at night, but unbearable in late afternoon & evening especially in the Livingroom/kitchen. I specifically paid for a place with A/C and was way disappointed with swamp coolers. bread went moldy in 3 days it was so hot! The furniture, stained carpet & fridge are very aged and not so clean. 50% of the dishes & Glasses were not clean, no auto dishwater liquid to use, a few dead bugs & mice droppings on top of refrigerator! Shower door would not close and leaked, I advised the owner of that and few other things, said someone would come by, no one ever did! i feel a bit ripped off.
This was our first time on Kauai and this unit is in a great location! The deck views of the ocean and the sunset were beautiful. The unit was larger and roomier than I thought, and the kitchen was well stocked. The beach toys/gear were plentiful and of good quality. Some of the rooms were hard to cool down with the stand-alone A/C units, but this is typical of the islands in general. Most places do not have central air conditioning. If you want this, you'll probably want a hotel. Overall, my family enjoyed staying in this property.
We absolutely loved the location; 5 minute walk to the beach! The whole area is very walkable and not crowded at all! We hope to stay here again
This was our fourth time staying in this general area in the last six years. We obviously love the area with its easy access to beautiful Poi Pu beach. We traveled with our son, daughter in law, and two grandsons ages 5 and 7. They stayed on the lower floor and my wife and I used the hide a bed on the upper floor. We made several meals in the kitchen although the upper floor was a bit warm. The bedrooms, bath, and showers on the first floor accommodated all of us. The short walk to the two pools was a perfect way for the boys who are not swimmers to enjoy water (minus sand).
The property has access to three great beaches, two pools and many wonderful hikes around the area. The owners are good communicators and have that Aloha spirit. The condo itself is both luxurious and spacious.
I loved this unit. Great location and free parking makes everything very accessible. Unfortunately half of our party (wife and son) came down with a cold but the unit was big enough and comfortable enough that it made convalescing a little bit easier. They spent a lot of time on the lanai looking at the ocean. My daughter and I were able to enjoy Kauai more fully, got a day of diving in and even 9-holes of barefoot golf in on a nearby super casual little course nearby. Plenty of space to relax, facilities were great especially the hot tub, and nearby showers to rinse sand off from the beach and dive gear off from diving and spacious secure lanais for everything to dry. Nice kitchen made it easy to cook breakfasts and even simple meals like shrimp scampi (the only thing I’d suggest adding to the kitchen is maybe a small rice cooker). Now, don’t get me wrong this isn’t a substitute for the Ritz - it’s not like you’ll be in a 5-star setting (spot AC units, can get a little warm upstairs if you’re not used to the climate, furniture and fixtures a little dated) but if you want a safe, family friendly, clean, comfortable, fairly priced home away from home setting and don’t want to be squeezed in a tiny hotel room for 3x the money then this is a great option. Full disclosure, I live in Oahu and appreciate the “Hawaiiana” aspect to this unit and would wholly recommend to any other local looking for a Poipu getaway to check this out.
We had a great stay at this great location. We are a family of six with kids of all ranges and it was good for all. We enjoyed daily dips in the two pools and daily walks to the beach. There are walking paths every which way with many restaurants and shops within walking distance. The home was great with all the things we needed. AC in the rooms that got the warmest with fans that keep you cool at night. Cooking in the kitchen was easy as they had all the supplies needed. The linens and towels were comfortable. The beach closet was full of stuff to take to Poupi. Parking was easily accessible and close to unit. This is a great place to stay for all reasons!
This property is the close to Poipu beach. You can walk to see the turtles in the morning and at night. Had all the beach necessities.
The location is amazing and the view is great. Owners are quick to answer questions. We knew from past reviews it was dated but I would also say rundown. Bathrooms were clean but that was it. Rusty fans. Duck tape fail fix on the AC unit. Kitchen dirty with almost unusable pans/supplies. Beach chairs are nice all other supplies broken and need replacing. I did give all our issues to the host and they did say they would look into it. So fingers crossed maybe better in the future.
This rental has a view and is a three minute walk to a beach with waves and 5 minute walk from a kid/snorkel beach. As a parent, packing up the kids in the car is a big hassle. The closet in the rental has all of the beach gear and a wagon to get you down there. Food, snacks and shave ice are right across the street. This location is also ideal for friends who want to cook or grab some take out and enjoy the view. My husband and I love running and long walks so the trails and pathways made for some great exercise opportunities. I really did not need to make contact with John while we were there, but he was always responsive before, during, and after our visit. Thank you! We hope to visit again soon!!!
Our stay was fantastic. The Condo was perfect. John was very accommodating to our requests. We had a great time looking forward to our next trip!
