The condo is on the top floor overlooking the ocean. We stayed 18 days enjoyed our stay just wish there was a washing machine in the unit rather than the one on each floor as when you stay so long you have to pay to wash sheets and towels during the stay but if your stay is only a few days then you'll be fine.

We had an amazing stay! The place was exactly as described. It was also well stocked, and the owners even have beach supplies for guests to use.

We loved our stay here! Super clean, amazing views (with turtles!), and hosts that had clearly put so much thought into making sure we had everything we needed for a fantastic stay.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Surf Song and would recommend to those looking for a spot with excellent views and easy access to The Beach House Restaurant. Highlights -- a) beautiful lanai spot with views of sea turtles and surfers all day! b) good parking availability. c) large panoramic window views of ocean and sunset. d) owners provided beach equipment which was extremely helpful (although one of the umbrellas seemed damaged). e) when we arrived there was a wedding out the side window at the Beach House with loud music BUT the community has quiet hours that is honored by the restaurant which was great. f) responsive host when contacted. Feedback -- a) perhaps we misread the original listing, but we were under the impression the unit had a washer/dryer for laundry. Turned out not to be the case and although there was one community unit on each floor of the complex, we ended up paying 40 to do laundry during our stay (quarters are not easy to come by BTW). b) for the first half of our stay we battled wasp nests right in front of the entry door, this was a pain and safety issue for our kids. c) the main bedroom was not as described in the photos. d) the oven needs to be properly cleaned; we made pizza one night and the oven smell was so bad we flat out stopped cooking during the trip. e) for the money we spent, we would have liked it if the bath towels did not have a bunch of stains in them. f) multiple windows screens were missing, so we could not open those windows.

This is our sixth stay over 14 years at Kuhio Shores Surf Song unit. Prior we stayed in Maui but fell in love with Kauai and the mountains. This Condo sets close enough to the ocean we can see turtles from the Lanai. It has everything you will need plus spectacular views of the ocean.Mahalo Greg & Connie Scottsdale AZ

An outstanding condo. The location and view are unbeatable. We watched sea turtles off the balcony for hours and swam at the beach steps away from the unit every day. This was also the cleanest rental we’ve ever had. The only negative was that there were only 4 towels for 4 people and the laundry was expensive, but that is nit-picking. Otherwise, it was a perfect stay. 10 out of 10. We will be back!

Amazing! My husband had no idea that I booked Kuhio Shores and questioned why we weren’t in a hotel. We opened the door to the condo and blown away by the views and privacy. Very clean, great location and could not be easier to book. Thank you, we’ll be back!

We soaked up every moment of our 15‑day stay here. The full ocean view from the condo was the kind of sight that hits you right in the soul. Waking up to that endless blue felt like a gift. And at night, drifting off to the rhythm of the waves was pure therapy.This was our fourth visit to Kauai, and the island is just stunning every single time. Beaches, trails, ocean drives & beauty everywhere you look. After a long day exploring, coming back to our oceanfront condo was the perfect way to wind down. Opening the lanai door, hearing the waves, feeling that soft Kauai breeze… nothing beats it.The condo was spotless, comfortable, and easy to settle into. Check‑in was simple and stress‑free, and communication with the host was excellent. Quick, friendly, and helpful from start to finish.From our lanai we had front‑row seats to turtles cruising by, rainbows &surfers carving up the water like it was their personal playground. Coffee in hand, ocean breeze rolling through. It became our favorite daily ritual.Baby Beach, right by The Beach House restaurant (great for fine dining), was a highlight. We were lucky enough to see Hawaiian monk seals resting peacefully on the sand. Moments like that stay with you.And the nights? Unreal. The sky lit up with a galaxy of stars. The kind you only see far from city lights.This place delivered everything we hoped for and more. Beautiful, relaxing, memorable. A stay you appreciate long after you’ve unpacked your bags. A forever memory.

The condo was great and very comfortable. Awesome views from the lanai. It had any the beach supplies you would need. We had a little trouble with the AC but that might have been due to us having it too low. The owners quickly responded and resolved the problem. Food places were close but not walkable. You need a car to get around. We would definitely recommend it.

Lovely, well equipped 1 bedroom. This condo is in a great location - close to beaches, shops; the highlight is sitting on the lanai or in the main room watching the shifting tides, seeing the sea turtles near the surface, listening to the waves crash, watching the moonlight light up the ocean. This is a quiet peaceful place. The condo also offers the ability to go to the Poipu Athletic Club, and the excellent Beach House restaurant is next door to the condo.

A condo with wonderful views and in a quiet location. Very well equipped, nice linens and towels. Fabulous hosts, quick responses to any queries. Check in very straightforward, with clear instructions for arrival and departure. Appreciated the books and puzzles in the unit for quiet times. We didn't need the air con as the fans worked well in the bedroom and living room. Great location for travelling West or North. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

The room was as advertised except the AC did not get cool. It was cooler with the windows open. The area was great, very close to everything and the view can’t be beat. 2 monk seals next door on Lawai Beach all day, every day.

Very comfortable apartment for two adults and a 6 year old, easy walking distance to a lovely kid-friendly beach. Communication with host and housekeeper was friendly and helpful. Spent all of our time on the balcony enjoying the spectacular view. I would book again!

The unit has many positive features and is in a fantastic location. Items we experienced during our stay:- The kitchen fluorescent light became increasingly unreliable. It would sometimes take several minutes to come on and, during the last three days of our stay, stopped working altogether.- The bathroom fan is quite loud and appears to have some mechanical wear.- Several cabinet drawers and doors are misaligned and do not close properly.- The AC unit occasionally rattled and made loud noises during the night. Adjusting the fan speed or turning it off temporarily usually resolved the issue.- Many of the electrical outlets no longer hold plugs securely. Some plugs become loose or fall out. - We were unable to get the smoke detector to function. We recognize that wear and tear are inevitable in a vacation property, and we appreciate the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful location. However, given the premium price associated with a beachfront property, we were somewhat surprised by the number of maintenance items that needed attention. I hope this feedback is helpful and taken in the spirit intended. We enjoyed our stay overall and wanted to pass along these observations so that future guests can have an even better experience. Molla took our feedback well.

Our stay was just magical, enjoying the ocean and surf view right outside the windows, sitting on the lanai with a cool drink and snacks, watching those sweet sea turtles swimming in the waves, and the surfers were fun to watch too! The view of the ocean greeted us as soon as we opened the door. We did not over-plan our itinerary to be gone every day because it was so pleasant and restful to stay home to make the best of that view opportunity. The location was a good hub for getting around to various points of interest, shopping, and restaurants. Our host was very responsive if we had a question come up now and again. A delightful 5-star vacation accommodation!

This was an awesome property that was perfect for 2 people staying for a week in Poipu. The ocean sounds from the crashing waves are priceless. The room was stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, beach chairs, coolers and a whole bunch more! We loved this place. The only reason we are not a 5 out of 5 is the cockroach we saw in the bathroom. That was not a great experience for my wife, unfortunately. I know that bugs in Hawaii are a reality so it is hard to have a perfectly pest free environment. I’m not “bugged” by that one thing. One thing I really appreciate is the A/C. Wow, what a difference maker. Overall, we are very pleased with this unit and the overall location. If we are going to Poipu, this will be on the top of the list to re-rent if it is available! Well done!!!

Great snorkeling around the corner at Lawai beach and to finish the day off with save ice across the street at the little hut! Definitely will be staying here again!

This stay was absolutely unreal! My husband and I came to Kauai for a week for our honeymoon and Denise was the kindest host and always responded so promptly to my messages! The condo was absolutely beautiful and the sound of the waves put us to sleep so fast every night, not to mention the turtles every day feeding on the reef! Overall this condo was 10/10 and we will absolutely be staying here when we come back!!

The property was absolutely gorgeous, and the scenery incredible! We had so much fun watching the sea turtles and surfers right from the back patio. We also loved the convenient location, so close to all you could need; a variety of restaurants, shopping and specialty stores, drug store, farmers market, etc., just a short drive or walk away. We would love to return to this property!!!

Really an amazing property. The view was awesome and the place was very clean. The only negative was the 78 degree rule for the AC. This is too hot to sleep. We opted to open doors and windows to get a nice sea breeze at night but was still a bit warm and noisy. However, the place was great and I would stay there again as I already miss watching the surfers every day.

The ocean is so close. We loved sitting on the balcony watching the sea turtles and the surfers. The sound of waves crashing lulls you to sleep. The condo and property are a little older, but well kept. The condo was FULLY stocked with anything you’d need inside or outside. The entire process was very easy. We were very pleased with the whole experience.

Great place to stay with a great host! Greg was very accommodating and I spent both nights out in front of the condo watching some phenomenal surfers which was so much better than watching TV! The location could not have been better and Greg could not have been a better host.
