What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Pili Mai at Poipu earns strong praise for its relaxed, residential vibe in a beautifully landscaped golf‑course setting. Guests love the convenient south‑shore location—usually a 10–20 minute walk or quick 3–5 minute drive to Poipu/Kiahuna/Shipwreck beaches, coffee, dining, and shops—making it an easy home base for exploring Kauai. The on‑site pool, hot tub, small gym, and communal grills are well liked, and many reviewers highlighted quiet evenings and sunrise/sunset coffees on the lanai with mountain, golf course, and occasional distant ocean views.

Condos are consistently described as spacious, modern, and well equipped—especially for families and groups. The popular 3 bed/3 bath (and some 4BR) layouts provide excellent privacy, beds are generally comfortable, and most units include central A/C with ceiling fans, in‑unit washer/dryer, and generously stocked kitchens. Many homes come with thoughtful extras like beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, coolers, pack ’n plays, and high chairs; welcome baskets and responsive hosts were frequently mentioned. Overall cleanliness and upkeep are rated highly across the community.

Common caveats to know: several reviewers noted A/C policies that cap the minimum temp (often around 72–74°F) and occasional uneven cooling in multi‑level units; portable units are sometimes provided when needed. Floors between levels can transmit footsteps, so downstairs units may hear upstairs neighbors. Garages and assigned parking can be tight for large SUVs, and some upper condos require stairs. As with most tropical locales, occasional bugs pop up, and a handful of guests cited periodic cleaning or maintenance hiccups, though managers typically respond quickly. Pool water can feel cool, and basic pantry items/condiments aren’t guaranteed. If sensitive to noise, consider an upper unit; if mobility or parking is a concern, opt for ground‑floor and a smaller vehicle. Despite these notes, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return.

Great location & great communication with property manager. Beautiful condo. Front room was extremely hot but they did have 3 fans that we had to utilize to keep that room cool.

We loved staying in this condo for our anniversary getaway! We also felt like it would be great to come back and bring our kids to so it's not just for couples but great for families or friend vacations as well. It was also very well decorated and the amenities in the house were thoughtfully included.

This condo was everything we could have hoped for. We ate dinner on the back deck every night and enjoyed the breeze. The walk to the ocean is doable and easy. If you prefer to drive it is a very short drive but parking is limited. Condo has all the things you need to take to the beach as well.

This house was wonderful! It was clean, comfortable and inviting for eight adults. Pili Mai is well situated and Poipu is a great location to stay on Kauai. Communication before and during our stay was clear and informative. We loved Kauai and would definitely stay here again.

The unit and the property were beautiful. The unit is very spacious with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. The children loved the pools. It was within walking distance of a nice little shopping center, and a short drive to the beach. Our only complaint was the lack of anything (hooks?) to hang towels and wet swim suits.

This spot was the perfect place to celebrate my 30th birthday with a small group of friends. The location was conveniently located near Poipu beach as well as cute shops and restaurants. The communication for check-in and check-out was clear and straightforward, making it a stress-free experience on both ends of our trip. The balcony offered a gorgeous view of the golf course and the three bathrooms allowed for all six of us to get cleaned up and ready for outings with ease. Although we only visited the pool/jacuzzi once, it was a very short walk from our unit and a wonderful added amenity to enjoy. The property even gifted us a bottle of champagne to celebrate my birthday. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to any families or groups looking for comfortable and well-kept accommodations during their vacation!

The property is modern and clean. The layout didn't work for what we needed but we made do. We thought the master was downstairs but it was upstairs so my parents had to sleep in twin beds which was not ideal. The complex was well maintained and very quiet.

This home was fabulous and perfect for us. It's at a central location, it was clean and spacious. The home is roughly a 5 min walk to Paco Tacos restaurant on the gold course, great food and rinks. Two minor things occurred but the local staff was quick to take care of our concerns. We would refer this location for your Kauai trip!

This a beautiful condo in a great location. It has plenty of space. We really enjoyed the two en suites. The kitchen island was nice and big. The kitchen and condo in general are well stocked. The only funny little quirk is the crooked artwork electrical outlet in the kitchen and cord hanging from the TV.

Excellent place for grandchildren families and grandparents. Everything accessible jogging trails stores and a gym at the complex. The key is the three separate bedrooms with their own bathroom. Supplies for the kitchen were abundant. Beach towels were abundant as well as chairs and toys.

Cute condo in an amazing location! Multiple beaches, restaurants and shops all nearby. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai every morning and watching the golfers. Beds are comfortable and the condo is well stocked. The pool and BBQs are just a few steps away. Highly recommend this condo!

Beautiful property.
Dan D.
July 2025

The condo was great. Everything was clean. Well appointed. Management was very responsive to our questions. Would highly recommend! Only word of caution is that if you are flying out in the evening, check out is early and there are no options for luggage storage, or guest passes to use the pool and facilities after 10am checkout. We ended up haulling all our luggage around with 7 adults, in one car, until we could check in our luggage for our flight. This is no fault of the owners, just something we didn’t think about ahead of time.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall was a great experience. Great location, clean and functional. Could use more comfortable seating in LR. Also, washer and dryer are wonky in closet and move around which makes it hard to use. I contacted rental co about no directions for TV and they never replied. It was nice they had everything you needed for beach outings in the garage. It would be great if they gave you all the codes in one mail or text rather than multiple.

Our stay at the Poipu condo was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, we were struck by how clean, comfortable (central AC), and well-appointed everything was. The location was perfect, offering easy access to the stunning Poipu beaches and nearby attractions. We especially loved the golf course views from the lanai. The communication with the rental team was good, making for stress-free and enjoyable vacation. We can't wait to come back!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Positives: This is a nice, open floor plan. Perfect for a family of 4. Beds were comfortable. Everyone had their own bathrooms which was a plus. Kitchen was well stocked and large with lots of cabinet space and a huge island. Lanai was really nice. Did appreciate the toilet paper, bathroom spray, lots of towels (bathing and for beach as well as beach chairs etc.) BBQ's were nice to have and close to the condo. Really liked that it had a washer and dryer as well as AC. Downsides...not super close to the beach so had to drive. Lots of dust on the fans as well as the tv's and windowsills so we had to get those wiped down and cleaned off (or else tons of black dust gets on the white comforter which we unfortunately found out). Sofa in main room could use a replacement. It is pretty worn and sinks when you sit down on it. One of the rooms was missing a remote for the tv which was unfortunate so no tv access in that room. Parking spot is very hard to get into if you have a larger vehicle. People staying at the condo upstairs were loud throughout the night (even though we thought there were quiet hours) and left beer cans near our front door. Pool is nice but very lots and lots of people use it. Workout area is nice and appeared clean.

Great place for our family to stay. Place was clean and spacious. Our only issue was the AC wouldn’t go down below 75.

Loved everything. Location, condo layout, Will have to say there is a grumpy old lady living down streets that I felt like unnecessarily complained about things during non-quiet hours (day time).

Stayed here with chosen family; total of 4 adults and 4 teenagers. We loved the layout as it gave everyone plenty of space and bathroom access. Pool, hot tub, fitness facility, lanai, everything was awesome. It was by far our best short term rental ever!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the 3 beds and 3 baths and all the windows. Definitely would rebook. Well stocked condo. The things I would change has to do with a different design aesthetic. Like the padding on the bench is too big and not comfortable. The TVs do not have the same access. One TV in the master bedroom has HBO where the one in the family room does not.
