Newly RENOVATED baths and kitchen...stunning. Pictures to come soon. To be completed for December 2023.

Absolutely one of the BEST VIEWS, in Poipu Sands, from this second floor OCEAN VIEW condo. Poipu Sands is a low density condo development, featuring wide open green lawns leading down to the ocean. This unit has the largest double lanai of any condo in the complex. The spacious lanai has all new furnishings, including chaises and a dining table. Parking is right in front of the unit, and there are walkways connecting Poipu Sands to the Grand Hyatt, and Shipwreck Beach. There are also trails, along the ocean, where you can watch turtles play in the surf, and whales pass by during the winter months.

Inside the unit you will fine all updated furnishings, linens, and carpeting. The "refresh" was completed by an interior designer on Kauai, and features soothing ocean colors.
There is a king bed in ocean view master bedroom, and the guest room has twin beds, that can be made into a King bed upon request. Each bedroom has it's own en suite bath to insure privacy for you, and your traveling companions. There is also a washer and dryer contained within the unit, making it possible to pack light for your trip.

There is free high speed wireless internet, and cable TV. There are TV's in the living room, and the master bedroom.

A fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a breeze. There is a table for indoor dining, as well as one on the lanai, where you can enjoy an ocean view.

The recently completed pool renovation has only made the best pool on the island, even more spectacular! It has an ocean view, as well as several gas grills to prepare an outdoor BBQ. There are even tables poolside, if that is your preference.

A short walk over to the Grand Hyatt provides you with the opportunity to enjoy some of the fine dining options located there, as well as entertainment nightly on the lanai, overlooking the grounds and ocean beyond. Why pay to stay there in a single room, when you can enjoy your own private 2 bedroom condo next door, at half the price?

The location is ideal, being only minutes from some of Poipu's finest beaches. Poipu is also the culinary center of the island, and you will find many options to satisfy almost any taste. There is a gourmet Farmer's Market on Wednesday afternoons, that is an event not to be missed. There is also a Friday night musical series at the Kukui'ula Shoppes nearby.
There you will find an upscale shopping and dining venue, and it's only 5 minutes away.
Poipu is also is location of two famous botanical gardens, where you can wander amongst the wide variety of plants that grow in Kauai, in a peaceful environment.
Poipu is also close to many of the islands activities. There are zip lines, ATV tours, authentic luaus, and hiking near by. A helicopter tour can also be the highlight of any stay in Kauai, offering you the opportunity to see many of Kauai's areas of natural beauty, that are inaccessible by car.

Your vacation in paradise will begin when you open the door, and walk out onto the lanai.
There, you will feel the ocean breezes, and breathe in the cleanest air in the world. Days of sun and warm temperatures await you. Come visit and enjoy the island of Kauai, and make this your home in paradise. You will have lasting memories of your stay at Poipu Sands 323.

We look forward to having you as our special guest. ALOHA!

We booked before the renovation but got to enjoy the completed re-do. It is gorgeous and so nicely done! Our fifth stay at Poipu Sands because the location is the best. Had everything we needed and had a quick reply and fix to a minor problem. Hope to be back to stay here again!

Stayed here for our niece's wedding on Naval base, was perfect location for sightseeing whole island. Was able to enjoy beautiful sunrise over Shipwreck Beach and the Heritage trail coast line. Close to shopping, enjoyed Turtles on Poipu Beach. Place was everything we needed and very nicely decorated. Felt at home.

This apartment is absolutely wonderful. It has a large balcony with a sea and pool view. We loved watching the sun rise with our morning coffee. The furniture and decor are beautiful. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. There are beach chairs, boogie boards and a cooler. We even found hair straighteners and curling irons!! Poipu and Shipwreck beach are within easy walking distance. The pool area was spotlessly clean and never crowded. We would not hesitate to stay here again if we ever make it back to this magical island.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay. The place was big and clean. Fully stocked with all the beach toys we needed. The lanai was amazing with a fantastic view. We stayed at the end of July and the temperature was very comfortable with the windows and doors open and the fans going. Would stay again!

We had a wonderful time at this very spacious condo. We enjoyed the pool and walking to the beaches Our favorite part was the back lanai. The view of the ocean and the gentle breeze made it a perfect place to eat, read, relax and play games We were able to grill out twice which was nice. We did okay without air conditioning, but our family doesn't get hot easy. The secondary bedroom definitely has a better breeze especially at night. If the master bedroom door is closed, there is no cross breeze... there were some nights that we were a bit warm.

The unit was conveniently located, beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and wonderfully supplied with all items we could need. Spent hours every day on the huge lanai, just looking out at the property and the ocean. Took many hikes up & down the beach. Many good places to eat nearby. Would love to return!

Well equipped, beautifully decorated, Oceanview condo steps away from the ocean! We loved our stay from the moment we walked through the door. The condo was perfect. It is well equipped with beach chairs, beach umbrellas, ice chest, beach towels. Everything you need for a day at the beach. The condo is located less than a 5 minute walk (you walk in front of the ocean) to Shipwreck beach via the Grand Hyatt walkway, which is a beautiful area. Walking the other direction from the condo, the walkway takes you on a beautiful walk in front of the ocean with a cliff below. Gorgeous scenery! The pool was perfect, heated, but not too warm. Poipu Sands is very well maintained with beautiful flowers and plants everywhere. The host is great…answered my questions right away. Check in was easy, he gave perfect instructions. We will definitely stay here again!

Two couples in their 70s stayed for a week. This condo has incredible views from a huge lanai furnished with both loungers and dining for four. The pool is superb and located very close to the condo. The neighborhood is great for walks! You can walk to Shipwreck Beach in front of the Grand Hyatt Kauai and if you are energetic to both Poipu and Brenneke beaches as well. The condo is well equipped with kitchen wear and even beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, boogie boards and coolers. We were delighted to find condiments in the fridge! One must be aware that Kauai is often very humid. If there is a strong breeze, the condo is delightful. However if not and you are an AC person , this might not be the best choice. However condos with AC are scarce on Kauai. We didn’t eat our a lot but we really enjoyed Koloa town and Friendly Wave who has superb wings in an open are casual setting. We highly recommend a Na Pali Coast cruise. Capitan Jacks was a wonderful choice for us!

This was the perfect place for our visit! The condo had plenty of room, was beautifully furnished and had a lovely view! We loved sitting out on the lanai. And watching the sunrise over the ocean was a treat. We enjoyed the swimming pool and it was just a short walk to the ocean. Our host was quick to respond when we had a question. Our only note was the master bath/shower was a bit worn. But everything else was marvelous! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

My wife and I were very happy with our stay at Poipu Sands. The property was quiet, attractive, and it was a good base to explore the south side of Kauai. The bed was extremely comfortable. As others have mentioned, there is no AC, but there are plenty of fans available to keep air moving. The laundry room contained all of the items we needed but didn't bring: beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, a cooler, and plenty of supplies to use the in-unit washer/dryer. All in all, a well appointed and comfortable place to stay.

Great place to stay for a relaxing get away. Loved hearing the ocean waking up and going to sleep each day. Sea turtles were fun to watch along the walking trail. Pool was large, clean and comfortable. The unit had everything you would need for daily excursions and beach trips. We visited many different beaches on the island and having a cooler, chairs, boogie boards and towels provided was a great bonus! Property clean and well taken care of. Overall an excellent location -would recommend and definitely return.

Scott's place was exactly what we were looking for? It's a great condo in the perfect spot. We got to fall asleep to the sound of waves and walk every morning along the waterfront. The entire complex was very well kept and quiet. We almost always had the pool and grill to ourselves. Though there is no A/C, there was always an ocean breeze blowing through keeping it comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Our family recently spent a week here and we loved the condo. Clean, very roomy, quiet, great location and pretty view. Every step of the process was easy and effortless. I usually make coffee at home in a French press so had a little technical issue with the coffee maker (totally user error). Scott was very quick to respond with help. I can definitely recommend it and would stay here again.

The condo is clean and beautifully decorated. The ocean view is better then pictured. It is well stocked with the basics, including beach chairs, towels, umbrella and boogie boards. The location is close to the greenbelt path, a 5 minute walk to shipwrecks beach or a 15 minute walk to brenneckes. Another perfect Kauai vacation!

We just spent a week at this property and it's as advertised. Scott was extremely helpful and super easy to communicate with. This location was perfect for us. Easy trip from the airport. The property is very quiet and well manicured. Tons of spots for parking along with walking and biking paths everywhere. There was plenty of space for our family of four. It was really nice to pack light and take advantage of the launrdy in the unit. There were 4 beach towels (we did buy a few more at Costco). 4 beach chairs, umbrella and a cooler. The views from the lanai were amazing and a great place to start and end your day. The unit was well stocked with anything you need to prepare meals etc. We ended up at the 'sheraton' beach a few days since it was a 5 minute drive' less people than the others and very swimable. The food options are endless. HIGHLY recommend exploring the food options in 'downtown' Koloa for foodtrucks and fantastic food. The drive to the north shore runs an hour plus simply based on traffic and one road. It's worth the trip.

My family and I stayed here for 6 nights. We absolutely loved it. The unit was very spacious, clean, fully equipped kitchen, large balcony, and very comfortable bed mattress. The location was ideal. We walked to nearby Poipu beach each morning for fantastic snorkeling and coffee shops. The landscaping was immaculate. The adjacent Hyatt property was a great place to walk through with a great beach and short hike up to the cliffs. This was out first visit to Kauaia. We drove around the island to visit other areas and still felt that we picked the best location for our vacation. Highly recommend it and look forward to going back in the future.

overall we were pleased with our stay. the location was good, view was nice and the area felt safe. the only "issues" we had were that there was no air conditioning in our condo, which is not huge until we went to sleep because we sleep in the cold at home. the other 2 things we dealt with were that we texted the handy man and he never replied to our message. and lastly vrbo was able to add on a $52 tax to our room after we had already booked and paid for the room without providing any legit info as to actual legislation, which i felt was pretty crappy

This condo is in the perfect location if you like Shipwrecks Beach like my family does. It is decorated beautifully and has a fantastic ocean view from the large balcony. My only slight concern was that it had carpeting throughout most of the rooms and I personally prefer a hard surface floor so it's easier to deal with. Carpet in a tropical climate is a little hot for me personally.

After a five week stay I can't say enough about the location, and the unit itself. Both bedrooms and bathrooms were great. The living area was very comfortable. The Lanai was large and has a great view looking out toward Shipwreck beach. The kitchen is well equipped to make most meals and comes with a blender, toaster, coffee maker, etc.. Not sure it's mentioned but there is a good dishwasher, and a nice laundry room. The BBQ grill locations are close by and are cleaned daily. The pool is very nice. The grounds are meticulously taken care of. At the time there were backpack beach chairs and boogey boards. Parking was easy. The management team is very helpful and responsive. I can't thank Scott and his staff enough for making our stay a great one! Thanks!
