The property was as advertised, with beautiful views and the amenities we needed. Washer-dryer are in the building but plan ahead if you want to use them because it's not open 24 hours. The beaches within walking distance were OK. Better beaches are within short driving distance and a mall with lots of places to eat is within a 15 minute walk
Our stay was incredible. Perfect location, spacious, comfortable, with the most beautiful sunset views. Fully equipped condo, everything was just as described. We had a wonderful week. Thank you Walter for sharing your place with us!
Didnât meet expectations. The location was fantastic!
The location of the condo was absolutely perfect! You really canât beat it!That said, the condo itself didnât quite meet my expectations. While the photos may make it look more polished, the reality was a bit different. The living room couch was worn and uncomfortable, the patio furniture wasnât very comfortable-definitely not the cozy furniture I was hoping for. One of the bedrooms had a headboard, but every time you moved the headboard would hit the wall, which made it less-than-ideal sleep situation. Iâm pretty sure I forgot to move the pillows that I placed behind the headboard. There was noticeable dust on the curtain just above my head in one of the bedrooms. A few windows donât have screens. There areas around the front door and stove was pretty dirty, some of the shutters were broken, there were area that could use a cleaning.I would recommend this place for the location, but just be aware that itâs not as nice as the photos might suggest.
The condo has amazing views. We got to see so many marine animals. We saw dolphins, whales, seals, turtles-all from the lanai. We were able to drive to any of our destinations within an hour and traffic was not really that bad. The sunsets from our window were amazing.
Overall a good stay, with a few areas that need attention
Pros:Great communication from the property manager â quick to respond and very helpful throughout the reservation and stay.Fantastic location with a beautiful ocean view right from the property.Convenient elevator access to the floor made coming and going easy.Excellent air conditioning â the two mini-split units provided true refrigerated air and kept the space comfortable throughout our stay.Comfortable beds made for restful nights.Cons:Housekeeping needs improvement â surfaces could have been cleaner, and more attention to detail would go a long way.Living area furniture is worn â one kitchen chair was held together with zip ties, and a living room chair back kept pulling out and needs repair.Washer/Dryer situation was misleading â the listing implies an in-unit washer/dryer, but itâs a shared machine on the floor, which unfortunately was out of service during our entire 7-day stay.Bedding was dated â the sheets were clean but worn, with visible bleached spots on the bottom sheet.Summary:We enjoyed our time overall â the ocean view and AC were highlights â but a few maintenance and housekeeping upgrades would make this unit truly shine.
The location of the condo is simply amazing. Watching from the comfort of our deck, the whales, dolphins, turtles and P20 the monk seal are experiences of a lifetime. The icing on the cake was meeting Walt and Joy. They truly are the most gracious hosts. Thank you for everything and we will see you again in 2 years.
The condo is called Surf Song and that is spot on. It is steps from the ocean with floor to ceiling windows. We kept the doors and windows open every day to enjoy the music of the sea.
A beautiful panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean from the Poipu shores of Kauai awaits you at this upscale condo. The gracious hosts provided everything we needed for beach fun activities. We highly recommend this property for a great and memorable Hawaiian vacation.
Enjoyed the ocean front views and watching surfers daily. Liked that it provided all kitchenware to cook meals and necessary beach items. Beds were comfortable.
This was a very peaceful place, great ocean views, close to shops and restaurants, Condo was well equipped with beach supplies making it easy to enjoy the many locations on the island. The Sheraton close by had a wonderful luau. The A/C units helped as it was above average temps, so we were very comfortable during the day. The owners responded quickly to our questions. The outdoor grill was great for cooking local seafood from Koloa Seafood Market. A very enjoyable stay and will put on list to return to this ocean paradise.
Just a Marvelous property on all aspects- views - surfing- snorkeling - closeness tot ocean.
We used the Shaka guided driving app to explore the island and loved it. Aloha Greg & Connie from Scottsdale

This is amazing condo with great host, awesome views and great location. Host Walt & Joy are great people. Communication with them was breeze and check-in process was very easy. Location of the condo is great and it has fascinating views of the ocean all around. Amenities are great and they have provided beach related stuff in the closet and kitchen with all possible utensils.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone and we will definitely come back here again.
Thank you Walt & Joy for providing us with a great stay and making our Kauai visit very memorable.
This cozy oceanfront condo was amazing. It had everything we needed and we loved being REALLY oceanfront. We enjoyed the waves, beach, surfers, turtles, rainbows, sunsets, snorkelers, restaurant next door, views! So close to the best shops, restaurants, and beaches. Perfect hosts. We would come back!
We fell in love with Kauai almost 20 years ago on our very first trip, when we visited our daughter Debi and our three delightful young grandchildren in Poipu. They had just moved into a new oceanfront home located right across a small bay from The Kuhio Shores Condominium building. We have since often spent time on Kauai, and have purchased several different condos in Poipu over the years, all of them special, but the most spectacular without a doubt is Surf Song. We are thrilled to welcome others to share it with us, and love to hear the many stories of our guests' special experiences while enjoying the rare opportunity to spend a few days in Surf Song Condo.
Surf, sunsets, and sunshine, all enjoyed in Surf Song. Guests agree that Surf Song is the "Best Location in Poipu and on Kauai" for its proximity to the surf and famous sunsets over the water. There is really no down season. Surf Song is usually booked solid throughout the year!
A superior, absolute oceanfront corner unit condo with sweeping views of the surf and sunset. The living room, dining room, and bedrooms all have windows on the waves and the Poipu coastline.
Where else on Kauai can you be this close to the waves?
Whales, dolphins, and so many sea turtles can be enjoyed in their seasons from your couch!
Some of Kauai's best snorkel, surf spots, and white sand beaches are all right here. A gorgeous lawn borders your view of the waves, the ocean, and sunsets!
