Our family had a great time in Kauai and the condo fit our needs well. The condo was very clean and is well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. This is a great location and within walking distance of popular beaches and beach walks with great views.
We usually stay in Princeville but decided to stretch out try South Shore. It was very nice. Close to shopping, restaurants and local businesses. Even went to the Farmers Market at Kukui Grove.We did travel to Kaapa and went to Kealia Beach. Good body surfing conditions there. We'll be back!
Despite the tsunami warning, it was a good stay. Awkward to have to pack up in middle of stay and the unpack again andpack when we left.Felt that property managers were a little slow on responding, especially my request for later check out time(didnât even answer my request).Besides tsunami warning and slow/no communication, property was well stocked, clean, and accessible.
We quite enjoyed our time here! Everything was clean, the property was exactly as described/photographed, and the location was perfect for us. The kitchen was the most well stocked of any rental I've stayed in, and they even included a lot of other extras in the unit like beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, a cooler, body boards, etc. Would absolutely stay here again!
Nice condo, true to the description and photos. Very well stocked kitchen, and a closet full of beach gear: umbrella, beach bags, beach towels, body boards... The separation between the master bedroom and the living room is a Japanese style sliding paper wall, so not a lot of privacy, which did not bother us since it was just the two of us. Also, the condo is located on the lowest floor, below the level of the walkway to the buildings, which means that the windows of the second bedroom and the kitchen are at the level of said walkway. Not an issue in the kitchen, but it makes the second bedroom a bit cave-like.It's very close to the ocean, and we enjoyed sleeping with open windows, to the sound of waves. There is a hiking trail behind the fence along the patio, that gets busy in the morning with hikers and joggers, but it's a gorgeous trail along the coast line, passing by a lava arch, the beautiful Grand Hyatt, Shipwreck Beach, and all the way to beautiful bluffs. It's about a ten minute walk to Poipu Beach. We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub after our hike. Overall a lovely stay.
We really enjoyed our stay! It was comfortable and in a great location! We were concerned about no AC, but found it comfortable with the doors open and fans on. We would definitely stay again!
The property was clean and had all the amenities we needed for meal prep and beach days. There were days that we wished the unit had air conditioning but the ocean breeze helped cool down at night. Being so close to the cliffs was perfect for us. We spent many hours watching the waves crash against the rocks and the turtles catching food. Traveling to Poipu beach was easy as it is an easy 10 minute walk.We would recommend this unit and hope to make it back for another visit!
Great location and property. The kitchen is well maintained and set up.
The property lacks ac and the back bedroom got very hot. A screen on the entrance or cooling system is suggested. The patio area is nice- unfortunately the furniture has rusted through and was not able to be used. Would stay again if there was ac and the patio was fixed as the location is absolutely wonderful. Beautiful pool area and views.
Spacious, well equipped unit. Kitchen was incredibly supplied with all the large and small appliances you could ask for. Perfect to have in suite laundry and showers were supplied with lovely shampoo and body wash. The host communication was excellent and was by far the best Iâve ever experienced. Small issue with a toilet was fixed immediately without an inconvenience. No AC, the unit does get incredibly hot. 2 X standing fans and some ceiling fans. The front bedroom was the most challenging and some difficulty getting the window open created some hot yoga type of nights. For tall adults those beds were also short. Would be perfect for kids. There were 4 adults in our party and the unit was perfect. Close to shipwreck and Poipu beach. Car is a must on this island parking was ample. PoolAnd hot tub area were well maintained, excessively clean and there was no issue with noise. Large storage closet that has a lot of miscellaneous items for use. A couple beach chairs need to be replaced. One doesnât close for carrying on the back and several leave rust stains on clothing. Otherwise access to a cooler. Snorkelling gear, water shoes, umbrella, etc. Tjanks for a great stay!
I came here for my Honeymoon with my wife. Stayed two full weeks and could have stayed longer. This property was beautiful, had everything we could have wanted and more. Incredible location, view, and pool area also. Anne and Benjamin were super friendly and made sure we were accommodated and gave us good ideas of what to enjoy around the island as well. We will definitely be back.
Wonderful property location.... Great hikes around the rocks and views were gorgeous and beaches within walking distance. Loved seeing the turtles in the little coves.
The unit was one of the best stocked places we've stayed in with any beach gear you could want. The kitchen was equally well stocked with all appliances necessary and plenty of dishes for 4-6 people. We had everything we needed and loved our stay in this roomy unit. We also have to mention that the master bedroom had a very comfortable king sized bed!
Very well-equipped, roomy and clean comfortable condo. Property was even stocked with all sorts of gear like beach chairs, umbrellas, scuba gear for enjoying the ocean/beaches. sits on a spectacular location on cliffs over-looking the ocean with dramatic views. We really enjoyed the sunsets and meeting lots of other residents/occupants gathering to watch the sunset. Property sits very close to both Shipwreck Beach and Poipu Beach. Kauai is definitely one of, if not the, most beautiful places we have ever travelled to. We hope to return soon and would absolutely stay here again.
My family and I enjoyed our stay here. The checkin process somehow got mixed up so I wasn't able to access the condo right away. I called the number provided and we received immediate assistance! Everything about the condo we adored. from the simple decorative pieces, to the outside lounging area. The breeze through the condo made the Hawaii heat bare able. Thank you folks again for our beautiful stay!

This property is in a fantastic location. We would give it a solid 4/5. The property management team is 5/5! They were easy to get ahold of and very speedy with response. They had said in an email we would have use of boogie boards but none were there when we got there so we enquired. Right away we got use of two brand new ones. The place is well equipped. We did miss having A/C tho and a view from the lanai. We would recommend this place to anyone visiting
The property was very large and roomy. There is no air conditioning in the unit. Nights were hot so it was hard to sleep. We had to leave the sliding door open. I didnât feel safe knowing the door was open.
The unit provided extras such as beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear.
The lodging is roughly as expected given the provided pictures and amenities listed in Vrbo. The location was a big plus; you are right next to Poipu's ocean cliffs, the southernmost point on the island, so you have unobstructed views of sunrise / sunset via a short 3-5 min walk.
However, our trip experience was hampered by an unresponsive host experience. We found a large cockroach in the lodging upon return from our first dinner in Kauai. The hosts told us to expect critters given the tropics, although I've been to Hawaii twice before and this was the first time I've had a cockroach problem. We immediately communicated to the host that we'd like to be moved to another, cockroach-free unit, if possible. We communicated via the Vrbo app, which we got no response despite multiple follow up messages over the app, and texted another member of the host team that came to meet us when we were moving into unit. Again, no response from that individual. We had to find the local Pipou Reality (host company) office, located a town over, and knocked on their door during business hours, but still had no response. There was a business card hanging in the window of the office which we called the number on, and then finally, after calling the number 3-4 times, someone picked up and heard our case (they did nothing, but hey at least we got a response!).
All this to say this: stay at your own risk. The lodging is fine, but I wouldn't trust the management team to solve any problems that arise
My family and loved the homeyness feeling of the unit. Boogie boards, small appliances, and feeling of the unit was great. Please be warned there is no air conditioning so leaving deck doors open was a needed. There are fans though aplenty
