Property Description
Walk to Brennecke's Beach, Poipu Beach Park, Kiahuna Beach, Shipwreck Beach, the Hyatt beach, and more. Restaurants in walking distance include Brennecke's Beach Broiler and Kalapaki Joe's, both Kauai classics you won't want to miss. Our Poipu rentals at Kahala at Poipu Kai share a wide variety of resort amenities. Kahala has its own swimming pool and jacuzzi and shares tennis courts with other units at the Poipu Kai complex. The tennis courts and pool are conveniently close to Kahala 123. A pleasant stroll through the grounds brings you to Brennecke's beach, and to the Poipu Beach Park just on the other side of that. The Poipu Beach Park is a sheltered white sand beach that's perfect for children to wade and swim.
Several dining options are also within walking distance, like Kalapaki Joe's, the westernmost sports bar and grill in the United States! A very short walk across the grounds and you'll be able to enjoy happy hour, Taco Tuesdays, poke bowls, burgers and more. Brennecke's Beach Broiler is only a couple minutes farther on foot. You can enjoy your day at the beach then stop in for anything from shave ice to sushi, or some of the best fish and chips around.
Kahala 123 is a spacious 1br/1ba with an ocean view. There are lovely wood floors throughout, and a private lanai where you can enjoy an informal al fresco meal while watching the ocean. The full kitchen means you can prepare your own meals and dine privately at home, though if you want to go out, Kalapaki Joe's is really close and Brennecke's Beach Broiler about a 10 minute walk. The bedroom is furnished with a queen size bed. The dining area seats 4.
Enjoy sunny south shore beaches from this comfortable ocean view apartment. Free parking onsite.
Air conditioning in bedroom only. It is a portable air conditioner and is not intended to cool the whole the unit. It will work best if all bedroom doors are shut.
This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down stairs. There are no elevators.
Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

Everything was nice...however, the AC was not for the entire unit Just the bedroom), and the bedroom AC unit was not exhausting the hot air outside, rather the hot air was going into the room and making it hotter! It was close 90 degrees in there when we arrived at 7:45 PM. We fixed it so it sent the hot air outside, but this was not something we should have had to do.Unit was nice, though dated, but was in a great locatiion!

The location is well located for exploring and easy to get in and out of, an important factor during busy times. It’s close the pool and an easy walk to Kalapaki Joe’s. The downside is the pool can get noisy in the evening until it closes at 10pm and the south facing lanai can get pretty hot during the day. All that said, after the sun goes down and the pool empties, it’s a real delight with a great view.

Great place, however unable to access local news or weather cable not work. We did contact the front desk, but nothing was ever done. Room needs a wine opener.

Our stay was wonderful. I love the Poipu Kai property. It was beautifully kept. Our room had a fantastic view and was a quick step to the pool, but the location was not ideal otherwise…close to main road and trash bins so kinda noisy. The room itself needs a complete clean of drapes and rugs and pillows. Also, the lanai furniture is pretty blah. Towels and linens need freshening as they are quite threadbare. The room is very dated in style and decor but functional. I would stay at Poipu Kai again but I would choose a room with a king bed (personal comfort) and further in from road.

Fabulous location! Walk to beach and restaurants. Condo is very spacious and the view is beautiful. The condo itself is in need of some maintenance and a few things are broken and nonfunctional . Regardless of the need for updating and checking to make sure everything is in working order we had a fantastic time and recommend this location

It was really great. It was so nice to have a little pamphlet to let us know what to do or where to go, as well as just items that needed to be done towards the end. Communication was amazing. In the perfect area to get to just about anything that we needed which was so nice.

The condo is great. A good location with an ocean view from the lanai. It’s a little outdated but I didn’t spend that much time inside so it was fine for me. The pool area is nice and very clean.

Fantastic location, nice view, close to the beach. A little noisy at times due to unit’s proximity to the pool and tennis courts, but being close to the pool was convenient, and, most importantly, it was quiet between 9 pm and 8 am. Unit could use some updating (kitchen & bathroom appliances & fixtures), but it was clean and comfortable. We would definitely return!

This property is in the perfect location for everything you want or need in the Poipu area. It's in the middle of Poipu Kai Resort, so easy walking distance to Shipwreck Beach all the way to Marriott Beach. The condo itself is very comfortable and well furnished with everything we needed to have a wonderful stay. And the views!! We sat on our lanai every morning and most evenings just enjoying the view. No a/c but we never missed it, because the breezes blow through for great sleeping! Everything was neat and clean, including the pool area. We enjoyed most nights in the hot tub located right below the condo. We will be back!!

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The condo was comfortable and nicely equipped, and has a very good ocean view. Plus, you can't beat the convenience of walking down to the beach, restaurants, and various coffee shops. I'd definitely stay here again.

Really enjoyed my time at this residence. 5 min walk to beach, with amazing ocean view from back patio. This was a great stay that I recommend for any other travelers to Poipu.
