It was great having a standalone house with lots of space for our family to gather.
We booked the Plumeria House for a week during the Christmas holiday 2025 for a family trip that included 12 of us - two grandparents, two sets of parents, three grown grandchildren, two with significant others, and a five-year old grandchild. The house was perfect. Although we initially had to negotiate room arrangements, it all worked out reasonably well for everyone. The house is beautiful with everything we needed for cooking, having pool-side barbecues, lounging around and in the pool, and going to the beach. The owner provided an excess of towels, bedding, pool and beach equipment/toys, and cooking and dining supplies. The house is also perfectly situated. Poipu Beach is close by, a very easy 10 minute walk, as is the walkway/trail along the ocean. Koloa Town is only a couple of minutes drive and Lihue is 20-30 minutes away depending on the traffic. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful. Everyone in our group loved the house and its location. The only suggestion we would make concerns the room downstairs with the futons. Although the grandkids who stayed in that room did not complain, having a couple of real beds with new mattresses would have been ideal. Nevertheless, we were all extremely pleased with the rental and would rent it again in an instant for a return visit.
Great location and property. Host very responsive with excellent on site team. Pool area super fun for little ones. Poipu does not dissapoint.
No hot water, no clothes dryer, no stove for 3 days. propane tank was empty. When company came to fill tank they discovered big propane leak. That evening handy man filled house with propane. Owner did not care he put us in danger. Swimming pool step rail loose. Multiple bare electrical wires near trash and recycling.
The house had Hawaiian music playing when we first got there. The Blackstone was perfect for cooking for the family. The propane was empty but the host made sure to get is a new one within an hour. Would definitely recommend!
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving vacation! The location was so perfect, just a few minute walk to the beach with sea turtles, boogie bording, a restaurant, shaved ice. Other shopping centers with good restaurants were nearby. The views from the living room were awesome! The kids loved the pool every day!
The Plumeria House was perfect for our family of 12! Everyone had their own space and we could gather in the living area all together. There was everything we needed from beach towels, beach toys, wagons, umbrellas, etc! It was perfect for us! We loved being close enough to walk to the beach! Such a beautiful view, too! Craig was a wonderful host and we appreciated being able to put our luggage and some food in the house before our check in time! Thank you so much!
Our host Craig was amazing thank you so much for your quick response
The house had a fully stocked kitchen that we took full advantage of. Location was very convenient. We had a great time. Lots of pool and beach amenities at our disposal.
The pool was the best with the kids. So nice not to have to walk to the pool.
We had a great time. Everything we needed was there. Very spacious for our group and felt like home away from home!
The house is well equipped in the kitchen and extras around the house. The property manager was very responsive to any questions we had.
We loved having the pool for the 9 yr old, and waking up to beautiful sunrises every morning with coffee on the front porch.
This is a perfectly appointed home in a great location. It was a wonderful space to spend time with family. Check in was easy and there are clear instructions to help use things in the home. Thank you for letting us stay at your property!
Fantastic location as base to go anywhere on island! Home outfitted with all you will need and more! Great communication with owners!Clean!View out the front window -gorgeous
We love this property!Our whole family stayed there 3 years ago for our 50th wedding anniversary.Now we brought our friends celebrating their 50th anniversary and cousins ,who had never been to Kauai.Perfect place for walking to beaches and shops and restaurants. Great to have pool at the house, too.
Our family had a great time! Beautiful home in a perfect location in Poipu. Plenty of space. The private pool was a fantastic bonus. Would love to stay here again.
We had the most amazing time at the plumeria house. Our family, all 11 of us, were so happy with the beauty and layout of the home. We spent a lot of time out on the patio watching the grandkids swim while visiting and playing games with our kids. We loved going to Poipu beach. The sea turtles would come up to the beach and rest every evening. We could watch the sunrise in thr master bedroom suite. Such an amazing vacation.
The Plumeria House was the perfect location to Koloa and beaches. It offered ample space for 3 families and great areas for relaxing by the pool and dining outside.
Absolutely beautiful. Perfect for our party of 10 adults.
Wonderful place for a multi-generational family celebration.
We came to Kauai for our 40th wedding anniversary with our kids and grands. All I can say is WOW, we had such a great time. Everything we needed was there, including sand toys, snorkel equipment, life vests/floats, books, games, etc. Poipu beach is real close. Having the pool on the deck was so much fun, and the kids all improved with their swimming! We were able to have my husband's sisters and family come over to visit, he is from Hawaii and we had the best time. Kitchen is well stocked, too. Highly recommend this beautiful property!!
House offered enough room for 6 adults and children (8,5,4,2). Great location to enjoy sunrises with view of mountains and partial views of ocean. Walking to Poipu Beach for sunsets and turtles. Good location to explore the South and West side of Kauai. The pool was great for the kids.
Location was great and plenty of space. Had trouble with outdoor grill which made dinner preparation lengthy. Eventually they got grill working better. Enjoyed our family time in beautiful area!
The property was in a fabulous location close to other family members at the resorts. Beautiful “lived in” home that was welcoming and comfortable without feeling like a manicured resort. Family friendly pool for the keikis, just enough for the little ones to get wet or for the adults to cool off in the evening. Great views of the mountains after being on the beach all day. Thanking you for hosting my family.
This home is everything you could ask for when staying in Poipu. Great location, clean, plenty of room, very well equipped, and having the private pool was amazing. The owners were great and very easy to communicate with. We came with two other couples and we each had plenty of space and privacy. It would be perfect for a large family as well. Would definitely come back to this home!!!
This property was perfect for our group of 8! Lots of space, clean and open layout, and great toys for the beach. Kitchen had ample room for our group and all the things to make perfect dinners. Would love to come back any day!
The house was awesome! Lots of space and bonus room. The pool was perfect size. Back yard had great ratio of sun and shade spots for everyone to find what they liked. I would definitely recommend for large family or up to 4 couples.
My family truly enjoyed our week at the Plumeria House. The property was really well done. Everything you expect from VRBO was available. Thank you to the owners for making our family vacation in Kauai so enjoyable.
