The condo was modern, with great kitchen cookware and appliances. We were stoked about the beach chairs, beach towels, and there was even a snorkel and flippers provided for our use. I think our favourite thing was watching the turtles from the balcony every day! Denise was attentive and communicative, which made our stay stress-free! The condo is in a great location, close to loads of restaurants and beaches. It is also right next door to the popular restaurant "The Beachhouse", so I would definitely plan to have a sundowner there! I wouldnât hesitate to book this place again if we are lucky enough to visit the gorgeous island of Kauai again!
We had a wonderful week-long stay at this Kauai property! The location is absolutely stunningâright on the edge of the ocean with sweeping views of both the water and the mountains. We especially loved watching the sunrise from the lanai, and while sunsets were visible from the opposite side of the condo, it was nice that both could be enjoyed within such a short distance of each other.The home itself was beautifully maintained and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly needâfrom kitchen essentials to beach gear. It was also close to several great beaches, making it easy to explore during the day and return to a relaxing home base in the evening.Our host was wonderfulâwelcoming, responsive, and made sure everything was just right for our stay.If youâre looking for a peaceful, scenic getaway with unbeatable views and all the comforts of home, this is the perfect place. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kauai!
Really enjoyed this beautiful condo. The view was spectacular and the location was very convenient to everything on that side of the island. The communication and check-in and out were seamless. Only negative comments would be that it was advertised as air conditioning but it was only in the bedroom and was an extra 10 a night if you used it. We did not really need it and did not use it but I thought the listing could make that more clear. Also, the unit said it had washer and dryer but it was down the hall and cost extra. We were only provided one bath towel which I thought it would have been nice to have at least two per person. I would highly recommend this place but just know and prepare for things mentioned.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. It was in a great location, so close to Poipu beach and KĆloa. The condo was modern with great kitchen cookware, appliances, etc. We were stoked about the beach chairs, beach towels, and ice chest provided for our use. Also, the sound of waves is constant, itâs incredible! Also, Denise was helpful and easy and accommodating. Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful stay in this condo! Everything you need and more. The condo is beautiful and modern. Very clean and comfortable. The view from the balcony over the water is incredible! We watched sea turtles everyday.
This Vrbo is excellent! We love staying in Poipu when we come to Kauai and this condo was the perfect oasis for relaxation. Every morning we would watch the sun rise and look for turtles and whales. Every evening we would walk over to Beach House to grab a Mai Tai and watch the sun set. We couldnât have asked for a better spot to launch our adventures. The condo had great amenities for beach relaxation and hiking trips. We canât wait to return!
This property was idyllic! We stayed here for our honeymoon:) The condo was beautiful and clean. Close proximity to everything, including stunning beaches within walking distance. We were even able to see sea turtles grazing in the waters and sunning themselves from our balcony. Would highly recommend staying here!
This was the most perfect place to stay on Kauaâi! It was even more beautiful than presented in the listing. We listened to the surf and watched the sea turtles frolic every afternoon. The condo was very comfortable and well stocked, providing pretty much everything we needed.
We canât wait to return to this wonderful spot we consider to be âheaven on earthâ.
The place was beautiful - very clean and well stocked. The waves are a little louder than expected with the doors and windows open, but that was exactly how it was described in the listing and the reason we chose this place over others. Everything was comfortable and the place had everything we needed for two people.
The area is great - "The Shops" were very close and Koloa is a short drive up the road. It's also a great central spot on the island, where Hanalei is the only destination that is a "long drive," even though it's really not that far. It was a nice spot for us so we could travel around the island.
We actually ran in to Denise one day downstairs and had a wonderful converasation with her! The communication the whole trip was great and I'm so appreciative for them opening their home to us.
All we needed to do was sit/lounge on the balcony...listen to the waves, watch sea turtles, feel the ocean breeze to enjoy our vacation. The spot is perfect. The condo has everything you need. Strolling the area is easy to do. Yummy places to eat. I can see why its a favorite to many-- its now ours as well!!
The condo was perfect for our couple of nights in Kauai. A beautiful ocean view on the side of the building and located near many beautiful beaches. Walking to the other side of the building was a perfect spot for watching the sunset!
The location is simply unbeatable. The sound of the waves crashing against the rocks just steps away from the condo supplied a soothing soundtrack to our entire stay. The condo itself was a true home away from home. The attention to detail in the interior design and furnishings created a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped with modern appliances, making it easy for us to prepare meals and dine with a view of the ocean. One of the highlights for me was the private lanai, where we spent mornings sipping coffee and evenings stargazing. It was the perfect spot to unwind and appreciate the natural beauty that Kauai has to offer, including the daily afternoon visit from sea turtles. The attention from Denise and Gordon was exceptional. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. Their recommendations and hospitality added an extra layer of warmth to our experience. The proximity to local attractions and activities was another advantage of staying at Kuhio Shores. Whether it was exploring nearby botanical gardens, embarking on a snorkeling adventure, checking out the local farmerâs markets or simply relaxing on the pristine beaches, everything was conveniently accessible.
Kuhio Shores is a hidden gem that we feel fortunate to have discovered. It's a haven for those seeking a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure. Weâre already dreaming of our next visit to this little slice of heaven on earth.
Donât think twice and book!! This is by far the most top notch couples retreat! From the layout, to the design and decor, the the breathtaking views from balcony - itâs just spectacular. Denise was amazing with communication and responded quickly every time I had a question. The condo was close to beaches, restaurants and shops. We spent majority of our stay on the island here and driving to and from various parts of the island was no issue at all. You will see sea turtles from the balcony on a daily basis and the sun rises from bed are a dream. We couldnât have been happier and will definitely rebook in the future!
Just a perfect place to return to after a day adventuring on Kauai.
Just the sound of the waves and the beauty of the ocean. Tastefully and functionally updated. Comfortable bed and furniture. Set up is great in that you can see the ocean from the living area and bedroom. Everything we needed and more (coolers, boogie boards, beach towels.. if you needed it, it was here). Parking always available close to the unit. We stayed 4 nights and never saw an insect. Five minute drive from Longs Drug if you needed anything. Great restaurant next door with killer sunset views. Poipu Beach minutes away by car. Resident turtle in the water beneath our balcony. Stayed perfect temperature without AC in August (highs in high 80âs), but must pull down sunshades in the early morning hours to keep the unit cool. Proactive owner told us about potential noise from the elevator being fixed (but we didnât hear anything). Itâs near the road, but you donât hear anything but the ocean. We were out and about everyday.. so canât comment on it as a âlaying on the beachâ stay. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
Waterfront property with crashing waves to lull you day and night; turtles were seen feeding just below the balcony. Modern and clean interior, with just about everything you could ever need.
Downside: No in-unit washer & dryer (on site though); bar-b-ques were situated next to the trash dumpsters...not terribly appealing (we didn't use); no pool or fitness center; near main street, so the occasional loud vehicle or stereo music would interrupt the solitude.
Despite these minor inconveniences, a wonderful place.
This property is in the most perfect location you could ever think of. It is right around the corner from the beach house restaurant that we went to that is amazing with excellent food and service. It is close to snorkeling and beaches. It is also close to many restaurants and little shops. We had either a short walk to places or we drove for maybe 2 to 3 minutes to go shopping, eat out, and enjoy ourselves. What a beautiful place she has put together inside as well. Has a beautiful air to it, and, everything worked well and was of excellent quality. You canât go wrong with this place. The views off the balcony are amazing. We were able to watch all the different weather patterns and the sunrise was gorgeous the other day. We even saw people fishing off of the lava rocks below us, which was pretty neat. Amazing place amazing stay!
My partner and I very much enjoyed this property. It is modern (with brand new appliances) and tastefully decorated. The view and sound of the ocean are spectacular. We saw sea turtles all the time from the lanai. The host was highly responsive and communicative. I would highly recommend this place.
We loved our stay at Deniseâs place. The condo is beautifully updated and was very clean. Loved having the view of the sunrise every morning and the condo stayed decently cool in the evening with using the AC. There was plenty of beach supplies, chairs, snorkels, etc. which was very nice to have. The bed was amazing and comfy. We truly enjoyed our stay for our honeymoon at this condo. The location was great and the hosts were very attentive.
