I've stayed at a lot of VRBO properties, particularly in multiple islands in Hawaii, so I am familiar with what is great and what is ok with accomodations. This place is pretty meagerly set up. The bed and shower were great; the tv was problematic and the kitchen was poorly appointed, with what seem to be leftover dishes. There weren't any decent knives for cutting, and the sliding doors and screen doors were difficult to use. I cannot imagine staying there during the true heat of the summer as the only A/C unit is in the bedroom, and it didn't work that great in keeping the room cool at night. I think the rest of the unit would be insufferable during mid-summer. On the first night when the tv was causing problems, the owner was condescending with her responses to my need for help, and she acted like I wasn't following instructions. I ultimately had to insist on her sending someone to fix the issue and he was kind and very helpful. The set up for the tv was still difficult to manage as no apps could be added to watch on the not-so-smart tv. The rug edges are not all properly secured, creating tripping issues. On the 3rd day, the owner contacted me to tell me I couldn't use the clothes dryer. Given we'd only gotten two small beach towels, I told her that would be a problem; then she told me there were more towels we could use. Generally, her communication was inadequate and terse. Because of these issues, I would not stay there again or recommend it.
My husband and I came for an 8 day stay in the Poipu area. Being our third time to the area, we were pretty particular about where we wanted to stay, yet we had a budget. Jayne's place could not have been better!! Not only was it so close to all of the amazing things we love about Poipu, she even has a jeep that she will rent to you if available! The price of both was so good! The place was very clean and had everything a person needed to stay home and relax or go to the beach and relax.Dennis is A also. He is the contact that will pick you up and take you back to Lihue airport for a small fee. He had all the tips for where to eat as well as the most amazing places to make sure to see.We felt the Aloha spirit for sure and encourage you whether a newcomer or a returning visitor to stay here!!! Many Mahalos Jayne Michelle and Dwight
The property owner went above and beyond. Villa had beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella, one scuba set. Kitchen had everything you needed plus aluminum foil and saran wrap. The Linae was so peaceful. We went for a swim one morning and pool was lovely!! Definitely would love to return again!
Loved the unit and all that was available. It felt like home away from home with a paradise feel. Everything was very comfortable and the information in the notebook was super helpful on the beaches and restaurants. We weren’t aware of the availability of the Jeep, but will definitely use it next time. We left some snorkel gear to be used by future guess. Thank you for sharing your unit with us
Jayne’s place was the perfect location for morning walks, coffee runs, dinner, and shopping. We both slept well and had everything that we could need for our stay. Jayne was great to communicate with and flexible with a late checkout. Definitely looking forward to another stay.
My husband and I had the pleasure of staying in Kauai this fall and fell in love with Poipu. We loved sitting on the patio which felt like our own little tropical oasis every morning. Thanks Jayne for a wonderful stay!
Spacious and comfortable ground floor condo with a lovely tropical garden view. The sounds of nature from the birds, rustling leaves and bamboo, frogs in the stream made it feel more remote than it is. After busy days out exploring the island it was a peaceful oasis to come home to.
Everything was great : location, the property… we really enjoyed our stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the location was accommodating to everything we did. The condo had everything we needed, the bed was comfortable, the living space spacious, and the pool was peaceful and refreshing!
Loved every single thing about this place. Hope we can come back some day.
Close to shopping and beaches. Nice pool on property. Would suggest renting a car as island has too many beauty features/attractions. Owner has a car available to rent at very reasonable price.
We enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient to shopping and restaurants. It’s walkable to beach but will take about 15 minutes to get to a sandy beach where you can snorkel. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking tools and the condo is nicely set up and roomy. The pool and hot tub were not heated. The hosts were wonderful, providing lots of recommendations for activities and restaurants,
Had the beat time, everything you could need was there, felt like home away from home!
We just got home from a 10 day stay in this little condo in Poipu. It’s a great location, centrally located in Poipu. Within walking distance to shopping, a drug store, shave ice, and restaurants. The condo has been renovated. It’s clean and comfortable. The beach chairs, umbrellas and beach towels were very convenient to have. Washer and dryer in unit makes laundry easy. Parking is a breeze as you pull up right in front of the unit.
As others have mentioned, it backs up to a beautiful koi stream and there are bullfrogs that croak most of the night. It wasn’t bothersome, made us feel like we were in the jungle. Add in wild roosters crowing at 5am and you will be waking up pretty early. Wasn’t a problem for us and the host has ear plugs and a sound machine to help, though we didn’t need the ear plugs. Overall great stay.

Everything worked out perfectly as planned in our research and booking of this place. The host was beyond helpful during our planning. This place is a piece of serene and beautiful paradise that is for sure. (Side note - the interior is even more spacious than in the photos!) We will be back!!
We just stayed for our honeymoon. This is a beautiful condo and in a great location, walking distance to shopping, restaurants and the beach.
This garden view condo is the most spacious one bedroom place we have ever stayed in. The patio faces a small stream with koi and very loud bullfrogs which can be annoying at night. I loved the large bathroom and the shower was luxurious. The complex pool was beautiful and I was usually the only guest using it.
Great location, close to shopping and restaurants.
Ground floor was nice, creek right out from patio sitting area.
Washer and dryer a big plus.
Jayne was very responsive and answered all my questions.
Could have been cleaner, counters were in need of a good washing.
Overall a nice place to stay!
We spent 4 nights around thanksgiving. This is a highly recommended place. We had a comfortable stay for a family of 4. Everything (bedding, storage, facilities, kitchen, parking, and patios) worked as or above our expectations. The binder provided extremely useful information. The location is great, too, as many beaches and excellent food are all just a few steps away. When we come back to Kauai, we will like to return here!

This condo was in an excellent location in Poipu!
We were close to shops, restaurants, beaches and entertainment. There was everything you would need in the condo - beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, games, shopping bags,………We will definitely stay here on our next visit.

Nicely located in Kauai with a super beach close by. Great place for holidays.

Our family of 3 recently spent 3 nights at this beautiful apartment. The apartment is very clean, with very well stocked kitchen (utensils, cookware, etc), and all the beach necessities (umbrella, cooler, chairs, snorkeling gears, boogie board). The host also provided excellent recommendations for places to explore. The apartment is located within a complex that's beautifully landscaped and very close to a few Poipu beaches. Would definitely return!
