Our 2 week stay in Poipu was lovely. The condo was as described and though we had a minor issue we were able to communicate effectively with the local team to get it resolved. The AC was a nice option after long days in the sun. We would stay in Poipu and specifically this unit again.

Nice unit with ocean views. Location is great for South Island activities. Property is well maintained (although there was that kitchen window shade that has been broken since January—we were here in the first week of March). The atmosphere is congenial with an almost neighborhood feel. Great restaurant selections in the area. Would certainly return.

Property met our needs and AC a great amenity! Condo was comfortable but could use an update in decor to make it more pleasant for a vacation stay. Could use a better more thorough cleaning between guests. Location on the island is great.

It was a great property with an attentive host at an amazing ocean front location. We lost track of how many whales and dolphins we saw during our stay.......incredible!

The location is very nice with a pretty awesome view. The place is well stocked and has plenty of kitchen and beach items. We underestimated the amount of stairs. We stayed with our kids and grandkids. Every time we left the condo, it was 42 stairs to navigate, in addition to the stairs to get to the bedroom— keep in mind if you have knee problems or are advanced in years. The info implies an easy walk to Brenneke and Poipu beaches. It’s along the road and mostly uphill going back.Cleanliness is a big deal to me— the bedding (especially pillow covers) were stained and smelled funny. We washed them including the extra pillow cases stored in the closet before using. It is Hawaii and no matter where you stay, it’s a beautiful place! The owners were very responsive and helpful.

My family and loved the homeyness feeling of the unit. Boogie boards, small appliances, and feeling of the unit was great. Please be warned there is no air conditioning so leaving deck doors open was a needed. There are fans though aplenty

The condos are in a good location. It is close to Poipu beach and the cities of Poipu and Koala. Access to the Maha’ulepu Heritage Trail. Good access to a sunset and sunrise. Sunrise can be viewed from patio, though homes are being built on the adjacent land that blocks view of the ocean. Grocery shopping should be done Lihue as most markets around have less options and higher cost. Parking is good and convenient. No elevators to get to upper units with luggage.

The condo was great! I would stay here again. The condo was very spacious and clean. The views of the ocean and sunset from the balcony are breathtaking. It was very peaceful. The condo was well stocked. Very close to beaches, restaurants, and shops.I contacted the property manager to request a last minute early check-in and she responded very quickly.

My husband and I spent 12 days at this property. The contents and location are exactly as described. The whale watching was daily, dolphins on occasion and random spotting of sea turtles right from the lania!Awesome vacation

This unit is exactly as advertised. Everything was comfortable (couches, beds), the kitchen was very well stocked, and the seating on the lanai was perfect for whale watching. All of the administrative elements were a breeze, with proactive, clear, responsive, and friendly communication. Would stay again!

Owners were great with communication and numerous suggestions. They outlined restaurants, beaches, hiking trails, golf courses etc, etc. The condo was very clean, roomy and had a kitchen with every gadget you could posibly need. Beach towels, chairs and an umbrella were provided.We loved the sunsets and the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks.The only downside (which is out of the owners control) is the people who stay in condo above you. If you like to sleep in, it will not happen when families are up at 6:30 running all over.Despite this, we still would rate this a 5 star property.

We enjoyed our stay here in condo 2205 with a lovely view of the ocean( and whales!) from the living area and lanai. Sophia from management was quick to respond to any questions or requests we had and even supplied and delivered pickleball paddles to us so we could take advantage of the nearby court.The kitchen was neat and very clean and had everything we needed, including a welcome basket of goodies. Bedrooms were separated at opposite ends of the condo which allowed for privacy. Necessary to walk down nearby paths to get to enjoy the beaches as the complex was located on a higher elevation. Enjoyed our stay!

This place was perfect for myself and my family. All of us 18 and over. The loft area was great, however you have to be willing to have Someone come to your room to shower. This was not an issue for our kids, or us but just a heads up. There is a 1/2 bathroom down stairs but no shower. The two masters were perfect and the beds were comfortable. They provide everything.. and I mean everything from the beach to the bathroom to the kitchen. All the stuff provided was super nice and we got great use out of all of them. Especially the beach stuff. They provide lots of towels, and lots of beach towels. I would highly recommend this place for the views as we watched whales a few days swimming while we here staying .. 10/10 recommendation. Described perfectly in the listing. Communication was great. Check in and out was great.. until next time Kauai!

The complex location was superb with a nice unheated pool. We could walk both to Poipu Beach and the Grand Hyatt and beyond. The unit is partially underground with no actual view but the patio has a lifeguard-style chair from which there is a partial ocean view. Immediately on the other side of the fence there is a very active walking path with a view into the unit. The photos don't include a picture of the dated yellowed jacuzzi tub in the master bathroom which we didn't use and caused us to favor the newer bathroom shown in the photos. The King bed was much softer than we're used to but amazingly didn't hurt our backs. Parking went well and wasn't a problem.

The owners of this condo need to spend a little money to upgrade if they are going to charge 500 per night. The so-called living room furniture was outdoor furniture that was extremely uncomfortable even my outdoor furniture at home is more comfortable and who wants to lay on a board to relax and watch some tv before bed? Also, the view is not like the picture since they are now doing construction outside the deck. The lock box is so rusty it barely works - took us forever to put the key back. This could be a nice condo if you improve the furniture and replace the lock box with a new one.

Our stay at Makahuena Resort was nothing short of perfection. The location exceeded our expectations with perfect viewing for sunrises, sunsets and even whale and sea turtle sightings! The kids loved playing in the pool daily and it was just a short 3 min drive to several beaches. Every single bed was very comfortable and clean. The property manager was always prompt to respond to emails and texts and was always available. We will definitely plan to return in the near future!

We had a lovely time and enjoyed the property. It was in walking distance to two beaches. Also a short walk to see the turtles, whales, monk seals, dolphins, sunsets and sunrises.The condo was spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The only downfall were the beds as they were very soft and hot. Overall this is a lovely place.

This location works great for our family. We have four kids ages 7 to 12. Having the pool right below us was a must for those early morning or evening swims. That is before or after we went out hiking or hitting the beach. And speaking of beaches, both shipwreck and Poipu Beach, where an easy walk or a short drive away. The AC was a real nice touch in the evenings when the sun was blasting in and made for comfortable sleeps.

Spent a week in this beautiful update condo. Slept with the windows open and loved the sound of the surf on the ricks below. Breakfast lunch, cocktails and dinner on the deck over looking the vast ocean of whales, turtles below and dolphins. One of the nicest units we have ever stayed in. Did not have enough to do everything we wanted to on Kaui and will be back. Parish is a great property company to work with and did a great job communicating before, during, and after our stay.

We had an absolutely fantastic time in Poipu. We loved the location, it was very quiet and peaceful. Was able to see whales right from our lanai. Poipu Beach was fantastic - was able to see Sea Turtles and a Monk Seal - have awesome pictures. The condo was fantastic - not too close to the big resorts, but not far enough to be out of the way. Will definitely stay again!!!

Unit was in excellent condition. You can tell it was recently remodeled. The views of the ocean from the Lanai were great. So nice to sit there with coffee or wine and enjoy the ocean. Property management was VERY responsive to any inquiry. The only real downside was the # of stairs needed to get to the unit from the car - not a problem except when carrying luggage at the beginning or end of stay.

This is the second time we stayed at this property. It is always wonderful to stay so close to the ocean. We just walk outside to watch the sunset. The kitchen is well stocked. The beds are comfortable. The owners are very accommodating.

Location was perfect for the conference I was attending at the Grand Hyatt. I could walk along the beach to the conference daily. Views from the living room were great. Saw many whales. The supplies from the kitchen to beach items were fantastic. The place was dated, but was not a problem. The pictures were not accurate, that grassy area is now all dirt due to construction. I think they should update the photos to give the current look. This place is all about location. I would stay again.
