Location was very good! Air conditioning worked so well, kept cool and comfortable! No disturbance from upstairs guests. We enjoyed afternoons by the pool and hot tub. One evening did a BBQ conveniently located to the unit. A few minor suggestions: there were only 2 wine glasses, I donated 2 to the unit. There was no hand soap in the kitchen or bathrooms and no garbage bags for trash. The beds need new pillows.

We have been repeat customers (multiple times) in Pili Mai. We like the peaceful location that is centrally located in the Poipu area. The condo was great (as usual) and the property management team is very attentive. 5 STARS all around!

Solid spot, reasonably priced. The front door lock is tricky. You need to pull on the door while the unlocking mechanism goes.

10 people total (4 adults 6 children). We had a wonderful experience. Home was clean and well equipped with everything we needed to cook breakfast and dinner. We used the grills at the pool area most nights. Check-in was smooth. I would recommend.

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: Overall happy with our experience. Great location! The rental company was responsive and professional. Kitchen was VERY well stocked. Furniture, especially the outdoor ones are a bit more worn than the pictures show. The air conditioner was not great for the main room, but fine in bedrooms. The neighbor next door was a bit of a Karen and the pool area wouldn't let our kids have floaties, but didn't care when others did, felt a bit discriminatory. Despite that, would still recommend this property.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay. Spotlessly clean, except that the wonderful housekeeping staff that cleaned Pili Mai 13G said they didn’t find a backpack we forgot on the bench in front of 13G.Info in the condo said things happen and will mail lost items, we pay cost. Totally reasonable. However we called within an hour of check out .Took several tries to get through, then person we spoke to really didn’t care. The other two units on that floor checked out before us. The bench is not visible from below, how did housekeeping say they didn’t find anything. Asked if there’s security camera footage. Haven’t heard anything back at all. Bummer, otherwise a fabulous place to stay.

Had a great stay at this condo with 2 other couples. Views were beautiful, kitchen wonderfully equipped. Loved having the beach chairs/umbrellas and cooler for the beach. Bed in smallest bedroom was not terribly comfortable. Also, didn't receive check-in instructions until after 4pn. but got it shortly afterwards.

The unit was just as described online. Kitchen was well stocked with all plates, utensils, and all common kitchen needs, bathrooms were spacious and stocked with toilet paper, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and many towels. Laundry room was ready to use, including soap. Grounds are beautifully manicured, BBQ areas easy to use, nice pool, workout room, and hot tub.We were able to walk about 12 - 15 minutes to the beach and used the boogie boards, chairs, towels, etc. provided at the propery. The beach umbrella was small and the wind took it down easily, so next time I might rent a larger one. The walk to the town of Koloa was too far, so driving was necessary. The shopping you could walk to was fancy and pricey; the town of Koloa was much better to spend time in.

We really enjoyed all of the amenities and all of the beautiful grounds and plants around us. The view was amazing it was exactly how it was described and even more pretty in person. We enjoyed the pool and barbecuing and just sitting out on the back patio. It's close to everything it was only like a very short walk down to the water.

The place was beautiful. As far as the view it was not accurate. The dishwasher was out of order and was never fixed. As far as comfort the couch only fit 2 people and was probably one of the most uncomfortable couch’s I ever sat on. 2 chairs that are there are very uncomfortable. My family and I could not relax together after coming home from our daily activities. I feel this is not worth the price that I paid

This property was comfortable and the space was perfect for our needs. We appreciated the beach towels, beach chairs, and updated modern kitchen. The community was also nice and quiet, although we could hear the loud mechanical unit on the ceiling in the master bathroom as well as kids running on the floor above us. Other than that, our stay was peaceful.

3 years ago we enjoyed the same unit in building 8 and were equally pleased with this one in building 7. So nice to just sit on the patio with a book in hand or just gaze out over the green fairway toward the ocean. All was as advertised. Thanks!

Everything was perfect! We loved our stay. The condo is beautiful. We used the pool daily and also made use of the beach chairs. The location, so close to Poipu beach was awesome- so many sea turtles. Thank you for everything!

We spent most of our time on the porch while at the VRBO, it was comfortable and felt so good sitting out in the open air. The beds were comfortable and the place was well equipped. Beach chairs, umbrellas, boogy boards, an ice chest and plenty of beach towels made expeditions to poipu beach as well as the other beaches of Kauai so much fun. We we so busy siteseeing that we never took advantage of the other amenities offered with the VRBO like the grilling stations, the pool, hot tub or exercise room but they looked inviting. We were not disappointed.

Pros*location is nice with many restaurants and shops within walking distance*layout of the unit is nice and spacious*kitchen was well stocked with everything you could ever need including measuring cups, cake pans, Tupperware, etc *beautiful plant life and very well kept grounds Cons*pool is very cold, the first hour of the day only lane swimming is allowed and kids under 5 can’t warm up in the hot tub *owners of units that are staying on the property are quick to let you know they are owners and are not welcoming*found a cockroach and stem from an entire bunch of grapes in the bedroom. Sent an email about my concern about the cleanliness of the unit and received the response “thank you for notifying us of the debris”. Later found more bugs in drawers and broken glass on the lanai.•beds are dangerously high for small kids *3-4 hour mid-stay clean took over 4 hourseven with me offering to fold the towels that were still being laundered. 10-2 was a difficult time of day to have a baby and toddler out of the house so the fact that it took even longer was not ideal *child was sick during the 2nd scheduled mid-stay clean, which is an automatic 360 charge but no reschedule was offered

Husband and I picked this unit for a 2 week stay to celebrate our retirements. We were really looking forward to just relaxing, cooking in unit, and enjoying lanai. Contacted host specifically regarding view from lanai. Asked if view shown was correct. Response back from host was exactly this "You can see the ocean. However, it is a distant view." The vegetation was so tall, and thick, that you could not see anything in either direction from the lanai. We took pictures, but unable to attach here. We went to the host's office and they started to argue with us, until we showed them the pictures. At this point she started back pedaling and saying it was the HOA's fault for not maintaining the vegetation. It 100% falls on the host to give an accurate listing, including pictures, and to not lie when specifically asked. We knew the ocean would be way off in distant, we were 100% ok with this. We were not ok feeling claustrophobic on the lanai. The following morning when we showered, we realized that over half our towels were dirty. Some had dark footprints, some had brown streaks, some had red spots. Contacted host and was told there should be towels extra towels. The only "extra towels" were the ones hanging in other bathrooms, which had dirty ones as well. Multiple of the appliances did not work properly. We truly got tired of contacting the host and having to report broken, or missing, items. They also came into the condo with no notice. Horrible experience.

Condo is located is a great central location in Poipu- just a few minutes drive to multiple beaches. We never had any issues finding parking. On the property, we were a very short walk to the pool and hot tub which was a huge plus. The onsite grills were located in the pool area- which we used twice. The 4 bedrooms were very comfortable. Kitchen was generally well stocked with all things you would need, but we would have like to have the extras like aluminum foil, ziplock bags, and/or cling wrap. We ended up buying those items and leaving them behind so hopefully the next guests can use them. Lots of spices available for cooking which was helpful. We enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this condo.
