The sun slowly sinks in the sky, touching the spot where the water meets the sky in a spectacular blast of colors. Bring the ohana (family)and experience these amazing sunsets for yourself from the private lanai of Poipu Palms 30!

Inside, you’ll find new furnishings and new wood laminate flooring. Open and airy, the fully-equipped kitchen has everything you’ll need for meal prep, including coffee and condiments. Having the ocean right out the kitchen window while your cooking doesn’t hurt either!

Sit down for meals at the four-person dining table, with room for two more at the kitchen bar. The oceanfront views continue into the living room, where floor-to-ceiling patio doors let the outside in. Crash on the couch or armchair, doing a little channel surfing on the flat-screen TV with cable.

Both bedrooms have fun tropical décor, queen beds, and en-suite bathrooms, ideal for two couples traveling together. You also get all the comforts of home with amenities like free WiFi, a private washer and dryer, linens and beach towels, and a starter kit of paper and cleaning supplies.

Why We Love This Home

Sea Turtles, Dolphins, and Whales - Oh My! Grab a front-row seat on the private lanai to an amazing show. From your perch on the top floor, you’ll see turtles and dolphins playing in the waves year-round, and humpback whales swimming through the area during the winter months.

Upscale Pool and Deck: Clear your schedule, because you’re going to want to spend all day soaking up the sun on the gorgeous deck with multiple levels, tiki hut, and lounge chairs. Splashdown in the plunge pool to cool off with the waves of the Pacific rolling in the background.

Quiet Condo Complex: Part of the intimate Poipu Palms community, the condo is one of 12 and sits on the top floor for privacy, peace, and quiet.

Gather up the beach chairs, umbrellas, and sand toys and walk the 10 minutes down to pretty Poipu Beach. If you’ve got enough stuff for an army, pack up the car instead and make the quick two-minute drive.

If you want to get the blood pumping, hike the Maha'ulepu Heritage Trail, which is chock full of amazing photo stops. Adrenaline junkies will love zip-lining, aerial obstacle courses, and a wide variety of watersports.

This condo is located on the third floor and is only accessible by stairs.

Poipu Palms 302 Reviews

Property had a great view and a Nice view from the lanai. There’s no AC, which we were aware of, but the windows in main bedroom were unusable and we had no glass sliding door, which was a security/safety issue. It only had the Screen door. The hostess unacceptable. Looked like the glass door had been missing for awhile. Vacasa was fabulous about moving us. Their team gets the five stars. But the unit itself needs updating and had a bug issue, maybe due to no door. It was unfortunate.

Hearing the waves from almost every room and watching the palms sway in the breeze was everything I had hoped for and almost made up for the various mechanical items that were in need of repair. The secondary bathroom toilet ran intermittently, the windows in the main bedroom had a sign saying they were out of order, one of the screens on another window was falling off, and a shower valve was loose. The property management company was responsive and offered to fix all the issues immediately. While we appreciated their willingness to come right over, we didn’t want to interrupt our vacation time to deal with homeowner repairs and because there were only two of us, we were able to work around the issues. I hope the homeowners do the repairs soon so that the next group of vacationers will be able to fully enjoy this spectacular spot.

Had a great stay. Best part was the view and how close we were to the ocean. Loved hearing the waves all day and night. Only part that was hard to get use to was no air conditioning. Most places on the island don't have air conditioning, but it was tough for us at night. We had plenty of fans, but we were just use to A/C. Outside of that, it was wonderful. Would definitely stay their again!

The best view from the balcony overlooking the ocean, listen to the breaking waves on the rocks literally feet below you. A gorgeous deck and pool right off the room that has a panoramic view of the coast and incredible sunsets!!

The unit was very clean and had the view that was expected, which made the difference. What was not expected was that the master bedroom was only separated from the living room by 3 sliding "closet" doors. There was no privacy from the kids. If you have no kids or have no plans for sharing the unit then its no problem, but then the unit becomes very pricey. The second issue was the lack of AC. The listing clearly shows there is no AC but the expected breeze never really materialized and the bedroom windows would not stay up without bracing them with random things from the unit. The week was not very hot thankfully because it would have been unbearable.

This top floor condo, mid-way between Poipu and Shipwreck beaches, met or exceeded all of our expectations. First of all, the view from the lanai and the living room is totally amazing. The property overlooks a rocky point where the surf is continually rolling in and crashing against the rocks. We saw sea turtles bobbing around in the surf every morning. There are sliding doors that separate the main bedroom from the living room, and if you leave them open, you can listen to the sea all night. The place itself isn't super fancy, but very nice and very clean. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, and utensils. Full sized fridge, dishwasher and oven. Washer and dryer worked great. No A/C, but with plenty of ceiling fans (and sea breezes) we had no complaints at all. There were beach chairs, boogie boards and a beach umbrella out on the lanai, as well. There's also a pool right down by the sea cliff with an incredible, up-close view of the wave action. Had a great stay. This place is really special.

We loved this condo for its great location and awesome ocean view. However, it could use a few cheap upgrades. The coffee maker was only a 4 cup, the bedroom window would not stay open and the closet has a rod that was not installed properly, just to name a few things. It felt like a little bit of money could really make this place a lot more comfortable. Nice to have the washer/dryer in the unit and we appreciated the snacks and goodies provided.

Suited us perfectly! Walking distance to Poipu beach where the turtles and Monk seals greeted us. Walking distance to hiking trail where the views offered greetings from the whales. Condo had everything you need.

Very easy check in and check out, as well as managers texting and emailing to make sure we didn’t need anything while we were here. Location was perfect, just a short walk from the conference I was attending at the Grand Hyatt, and above the rocky shore where we could see Honu and whales swimming in the waves below. A big plus to have a functional Kitchen with everything we need to cook up a fresh fish lunch !! Thank you so much for having us!!

We came to this condo after 3 nights in a poorly-kept camping cabin in Koke'e State Park. Poipu Palms was immaculate and comfortable, and we saw whales and turtles and storms passing while we sat on the lanai. We did have to deal with one enormous flying roach and some ants, but the company responded to my texts really quickly and sent over some roach spray and ant baits. Considering the climate and the proximity to other people/homes, I figure it's pretty hard to get rid of all the roaches. It was very gross for a very short period of time. But the place was gorgeous, bedding was comfortable, furniture was well made/sturdy. And the location makes it worth one or two small issues.

Unit was quite outdated, especially the bathrooms. Patio screen door didn’t work at all and was quite annoying. Floors were dirty and there was only a broom to sweep and no other cleaning supplies. View of the ocean was awesome, which we were aware of because we stayed at a different unit last year. That unit was in much better condition, but unfortunately it wasn’t available this year.

Poipu Palms 302 is a beautiful condo overlooking the Pacific, with the the ocean waves serving as a lovely soundtrack 24/7. It was very well equipped with most everything we needed (except a couple plastic wine glasses which would have been nice to take down to the pool—though Happy Hour on our large private deck was just fine. We wondered how it would be with no air conditioning, but the many overhead fans (and an additional stand up fan in the master bedroom) kept temperatures as cool as we wanted them throughout our stay. We loved the condo’s location in Poipu—off the main road but conveniently located close to it, to the beaches and to lots of great restaurants and shops. The spectacular Heritage Trail, where we hiked one morning, is literally just down the road. Vacasa, which manages the property, was very attentive in checking in with us to make sure all was in order. Several thoughtful welcoming gifts awaited our arrival as well. In short, we couldn’t have picked a better rental for our 11-night stay on Kauai and are already looking forward to returning there the next time we visit.

Renting the property was very simple. The VRBO process simple.

The view of the ocean really can't be beat. We watched the waves crashing on the rocky shore down below every day while eating breakfast and dinner on the lanai. We also saw a few turtles hanging out in the water each day of our week long stay in mid-August. Unfortunately we only saw dolphins once but the turtles always made me smile. The view from the pool deck is wonderful as well. I loved the pool area with the comfy lounge chairs and plenty of shade under the tiki hut. They also have lounge chairs in the sun if that's more your style and an outdoor shower to rinse off after swimming. Short 7 minute walk to Poipu beach or quick 2 minute drive with lots of parking. We travelled with a 19 month old and Poipu beach was perfect with the super shallow water (2 feet in deepest spot) in the baby beach section and almost no waves as well. Adults can venture a little further down the beach for the bigger waves and deeper waters so you get the best of both worlds. There's also a great little playground and plenty of picnic tables at the beach. There's many different varieties of fish to check out while snorkeling. There's no A/C in the unit but really didn't miss it with all the fans and the nice cross breeze. Was 85 degrees and humid during our week long stay, 75 degrees generally at night. The water pressure in the shower was great and there was plenty of cookware in the kitchen including a blender which isn't listed (we cooked almost every night). Some suggestions for improving the rental: larger coffee maker (we had two adults and the coffee maker barely made enough at around 3 cups of coffee), sand toys are listed but weren't located, the Sonos bluetooth speaker needs directions on how to connect your device (it didn't come up in my Bluetooth settings to connect). Also, I know a lot of people travel to Hawaii with children (there were multiple families on our inbound and outbound flights) but no child accomodation was available. Would have been great to get a crib in the rental (I emailed Vacasa but they didn't offer this), or some children's toys, etc. Just a few things they may want to have on hand at the property to make it easier for people with children. Wanted to also mention that we had an emergency with our 19 month old locking himself in one of the bedrooms and maintenance came very quickly (within 5 minutes) after I called Vacasa. We were in a panic and very grateful! Overall would definitely recommend this spot.

The view from condo is just amazing! The view from the pool deck is even better! We saw turtles swimming in the water several times, and even a Hawaiian monk seal right from the pool deck. Just walk a few minutes to the shore towards shipwreck beach to see the sunrise. The condo had everything we needed including kitchen utensils, and basic toiletries. Thank you for an amazing stay! I hope we will be back to this amazing island soon!

Excellent location with a beautiful view and easy access to a nice hiking trail. The unit was very clean with a very nice welcoming gift. One very minor complaint is the lack of a small flat fry pan. I am sure after seeing this review the owners will add.

302 poipu palms is our 3rd time here ,the view the location and the house was so perfect, we always stay at poipu palms, the setting is beautiful, the sunset and short walk for the sunrise. And when it's whale season no better place to watch the whales then from your lanai. Just don't tell anybody its our secret

Clean property and condo. Fruit flys were extreme especially in the evenings with lights on. The slider needs replaced. Other than that location was great. View was amazing. Ocean sounds at night put me to sleep. Property was quiet. Short walk to Poipu Beach. You can see turtles swimming right out front. Condo equipped with chairs, umbrella and boogie boards.

The best location with the best view! You won’t be disappointed! We would hands down make this a tradition to stay here based off all of its offerings. The condo grounds are also so tasteful and quiet with a short walk to the beach. This is a great spot for families, especially if you have toddlers because it’s so close to the best baby beach and playground. Already missing our home away from home.
