This property was perfect for our stay The layout was spacious enough for our family. The kitchen is very well stocked and has everything you could want or need for meal prep/cooking. A full sized washer and dryer made laundry so easy as I’m very used to seeing the compact versions in units. The unit has nicely updated bathrooms and the beds were quite comfortable. We spent mornings and evenings enjoying the stunning views from the patio. An unexpected bonus was a large selection of board games, cards, and books. The location is great, and it is an easy walk to several nearby beaches, a quick drive to restaurants and shopping, and exploring. Communication with the property management was fantastic! Every email had all the pertinent information, and all my additional questions received prompt replies. We would definitely stay here again!

Loved having space for all of us. The AC was much appreciated after a long day of sightseeing and the beach. Plenty of dish soap, laundry detergent, and even bathroom supplies. And the sunrise mornings were exactly what we needed. Thank you!

We stayed over the new year holiday and while the location of the property was great the unit is showing its age in many locations. The chairs outside by the table are old and paint is falling off. There is very little places to sit on patio which is the best part of the unit and huge. We had to find the 4th chair that was hidden under the stairs. The labels for the switches have faded away so they are hard to read. The showers both seem to be in need of new doors and a deep clean. The bedding and rug did not match the pictures. The plantation shutters are mostly broken. Overall the location is excellent and watching the sunset and the waves crash on the rocks tried to make up for the condition of the unit. Overall would not stay again especially for the price.

Friendly well-situated condo complex - great to walk along trail to Hyatt and to Poipu Beach. Condo had well-stocked kitchen, bathroom toiletries and towels. We were very comfortable! Easy relaxing stay. Thank you!

I have been using VBRO (and formerly HomeAway) for over a decade and have always had very positive experiences. No complaints with VBRO. However, this property was the first I've ever rented that was managed by Vacasa, vs a private owner, and this is my first bad review. The condo property itself & location were nice. However, I've never been in a unit that was so poorly stocked. We were a party of 6 staying 8 days and were provided just 3 kitchen trash bags, one roll of TP in 1 bathroom and 2 rolls in the other. Only 5 coffee mugs. There was one pasta pot (fine) but every other pot & pan was about 6", barely large enough to cook or 2. More troubling was, we went to use, what was a large, nice rice cooker only to find it had been put away, uncleaned and was moldy with rotten rice and infested with little flies. I called/texted the numbers provided for local assistance but received no response. Only after messaging via VBRO that I received any response and then it took over 48 hours to come pick up the cooker (which we put on the porch) and replace it with a tiny one. I also texted the local contact about more trash bags, but never received a response so we improvised with our opened Christmas boxes. The master bath also has no actual towel bars but just cheap Command strip hooks so towels never dry. Master bath shower fixtures also old and corroded with a handle missing. Long story short, I will continue to rent via VBRO but never again a Vacasa managed property.

We stayed Dec 2023 for 5 nights and it was very nice. Clean, full kitchen, 3 bathrooms for 4 adults was a plus as was the washer and dryer. We didn’t have great weather to enjoy the balcony but liked having it just the same. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

We had a nice stay at this property - great views, ability to walk to the beach, easy access to other parts of Kauai. We had a few issues with necessary kitchen supplies, but I am confident those will be corrected in the future. I would highly recommend this property in the future.

We recently stayed at this vacation rental in Kauai with my partner and son. The location was great, offering beautiful views and a convenient setting. However, we faced some challenges during our stay. The louvered windows in the upstairs bedrooms were heavily soiled and sealed shut, limiting our ability to appreciate the wonderful views, cross-breeze, and shoreline sounds. Additionally, the kitchen was not fully functioning. Communication with the management was strained, which further impacted our experience. While the location is promising, improvements are needed for a more enjoyable stay.

Spent two weeks here and enjoyed every minute. All the comforts of home in paradise. Nice to be only a few steps from your car, grill and also the pool and cliffs for sunset. All main beaches are an easy 10 min walk away. Looking forward to another extended stay in the future.

The property was absolutely beautiful and well kept. The condo itself was better than even the pictures and the pictures are nice! The view of the ocean from the balcony and then walking right out front and watching the sunrise and also sunset topped it all!

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

Condo over all was clean and had amazing beds. Down side is we were not made aware that the lanai was not usable until we arrived and seen note on the door. At the time of the booking it was available. The hot tub at the complex was down also. After stopping for a weeks worth of food, to save money amd eat in. We ended up having to throw most of it out. As the refrigerator went out the following day. So cost more money to eat out. They did have a cooler, but no where close to get ice. The unit is up stairs which wasn't bad. Overall it was an okay unit. Just a few frustrating things that will keep us from booking again.

My family and I have enjoyed staying in Unit 1307. We love its location and have enjoyed the sunrise and sunset each day from the balcony. The kitchen has all the features necessary to prepare wonderful meals and we enjoyed the use of the barbecues too! Poipu beach has been a favourite place to enjoy snorkelling and it’s a short walk away. Most evenings included a swim in the pool after dinner. We have explored the island and enjoyed the shopping in various areas including a craft show. We have many memories of time well spent on the island and hope to return sometime in the future. The air conditioning in the bedrooms has been a welcome touch and most appreciated!

We absolutely loved this condo!! The host was amazing at suggesting everything to do, see and eat in the area. The condo is spacious, clean and there was champagne and snacks waiting for us upon checkin. Although no AC, sleeping with the windows open and listening to the waves was so so peaceful. You can walk to Poipu beach to snorkle and see the sea turtles, you can walk to food and coffee, as well as jump on the beautiful heritage trail, that takes you to the Hyatt Beach and to some cliffs with amazing ocean views. You are smack in the middle of Waimea canyon and Hanalei beach, one hour in opposite directions. We saw whales from our balcony and enjoyed every morning on the porch. I would absolutely stay here again!

The place was clean, cozy, and well stocked with all kinds of supplies from Kitchen to outdoor activities. The down side was the view from the Lanai. There was construction going on, but we were warned in advance and given an option to change and we didn't so it's on us. The pool had no shaded area and the hot tub was out of commission. The walking path along the coast had such beautiful views. It was a good stay.

Had a pleasant stay at this condo. It has everything you need. Great view with waves that crash into the rocks right outside. The deck gets a bit warm in the afternoon sun, wish there was some shade, but that is expected in Kauai. Saw turtles everyday, dolphins a couple times, and whales twice. Everything in the condo was as pictured and in working order.

We absolutely loved our stay in Kauai. It was our first time on the island and our first time staying at this property. The views are phenomenal! The sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous as well as the moonlit views. You can enjoy your morning brew watching the sunrise and moonlit walks to close out your day sipping wine on the lanai. There's also an area looking over the ocean and we even saw turtles and dolphins swimming by. The condo has all the amenities you'll need and the beds are very comfortable too. We loved it so much that we extended our vacation and the property manager was very helpful and accommodating. We will be back!! Thank you so much! Mahalo nui loa!

The house was immaculate, generously stocked, and conveniently located where we could enjoy stunning sunsets, visit the giant turtles at their overnight hang-out on Poipu Beach, choose from many restaurants, and walk to the nearby hotel beach. I did not need to contact the hosts for anything (which is more than I can say about the other two places I rented for my three-island Hawaii trip). I would love to stay here again.

Wonderful upgraded and appointed multi-level condo! Entrance up a flight of stairs, and all bedrooms upstairs as well. Nice full kitchen. Ocean and cliff views. Nearby construction does not obstruct views. Next to great trail... catch the sunrise over the ocean and crashing waves! 15-minute walk from Grand Hyatt and Shipwreck Beach either by trail or sidewalks and paths.

We were very comfortable in this spacious 2 bedroom condo. The kitchen was well equipped, having everything we needed to cook all our meals. It was a short walk to either Poipu or Shipwreck beach; it was also possible to watch the sunset from the grassy area just past the pool.
We really appreciated the detailed instructions sent to us, which made our late night arrival easy.
