Our fourth-floor, south shore condo is right ON the ocean so you have unobstructed views. You see "nothing but ocean" --and hear the sound of the surf-- as soon as you open your front door.

This attractive, comfortable condo --with all the makings of "home"-- boasts a king-size bed that our guests have raved about. Enjoy the ocean while sitting inside the condo or out on your lanai. Snorkel with turtles right in front of the condo. And during winter months, watch whales frolic in the ocean right in front of you -- from the privacy of your living room, dining room, or lanai.

Our Po'ipu condo is nicely furnished -- stocked with everything you'll need (YOU bring your clothing and food!)-- so you can get down to the business of relaxing in comfort upon arrival.

Come on in and make yourself at home! Most guests who stay in our Moon Glow Suite *do* return!

I love this place. My husband and I had 2 relaxing days enjoying the ocean. It was so great to sit on the couch, drink our coffee and watch the sun rise. Ending the day with wine on the balcony made it a magical experience.

This condo is directly next to the water. In fact the water crashing over the rocks was so loud we had to turn up the volume on the tv. No kidding. Hosts were very helpful. Wish I could have stayed a month there!

The apartmentis in a 4 story building and looks out to the sea on the side of the reef and one can watch surfers a bit to the right and turtles enjoying the surf plus the sundown from the balcony or through the window of the living room/kitchen. The bedroom goes to the back corridor, so has no view, which was fine with us. The kitchen is well equipped and there are beach towels etc. One has a card for the parking.There was always a parking for us. Swimming is possible next to the building, if you are used to getting into the water with a certain surf, then also good snorkeling. You need a car to see the island, maybe in case of. drive to the calm beach/port 3 miles away (north) and go shopping. We found the apartment perfect as a base for the short stay we had. Unfortunately there were renovations going on right next to the flat, which made it impossible to use the flat in the main daytime on 2 days for us. We understand that this is not under control of the owners and that reparations has to be done sometimes.... Otherwise we can fully recommend the place.

My wife and I were thrilled to stay in the Moon Glow suite. It was amazing to wake up every morning and see the ocean and surfers right outside our windows. When we were not watching the sunset next door at the Beach house the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Walking to Spouting horn or relaxing at Baby beach was ideal. Can’t wait to return to Kauai.

Mahalo Denise & Gordon!! Your condo is perfectly located and really clean. All the facilities were available in the condo (beach chairs, cooler, snorkeling stuff, etc.). We enjoyed the snorkeling, the view with turtles everyday and a lot of surfers... and of course the beautiful sunset near to the beach house restaurant. Thank you for sharing your paradise with us! Marty and Gen.

It was a terrific place to stay. Communication with the owner was very convenient and immediate. We loved the place and the view from the balcony was gorgeous…… we never even needed the AC. We would like to return and stay here again and again. Thank you!!

Pretty great view when you can watch sea turtles swimming from your kitchen, living room and balcony. Kauai is not cheap but having a full kitchen and costco 15 minutes away kept food and liquor pricing down. Location is great and 4 surf breaks are in easy walking distance. We will return!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at this lovely condo. It was super hard to leave the fabulous view when our vacation was over. We were centrally located on the island minutes from Spouting Horn and Poipu Beach with a great ocean view. In the evenings we sat on the lanai watching turtles and surfers until the sun went down. We also enjoyed the floor to ceiling windows in the living and dining rooms. The condo itself was clean, comfortable, and quiet with all of the amenities anyone could want. The entire condo complex is well-maintained and very clean (including the laundry rooms). We highly recommend this condo and will definitely stay there again on our next trip to Kauai.

We had a great time staying in this lovely condo. Top floor views of the ocean were fabulous: surfers, boogie boarders, sunsets, turtles and weddings around the corner. The apt was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. We would love to come back!



October 2022
The views are heavenly, with turtles and surfers and sunsets in abundance. The condo is well equipped and clean. The owners are responsive. The ocean sounds are rather a roar; we didn't even try to watch TV. No loss!!

The owner was very easy to work with and even checked up on us by email to make sure everything was ok. The unit was just as advertised.

This is what every home rental should aspire to be. From start to finish, the owners have thought of all the comforts and conveniences that make a guest feel welcome and at home, with clear and helpful communication, tips to shop like a local, available gear to borrow, and a well-stocked kitchen. Add a killer ocean view from your private lanai, and you may never feel the need to leave home base. But folks, this is Kauai! You just can't go wrong, and this is the perfect place from which to see and do it all. Thank you to our hosts for sharing their lovely home!

It was our first trip to Kauai and we wanted a peaceful beach front rental. This was a great fit. The condo is clean and was very well stocked with basic supplies. As others have mentioned, it could use a bit of updating, but everything was perfectly servicable and if you want to listen to the Ally McBeal soundtrack cd, it is there for you. The bed was very comfortable, the view was unmatched, and the complex was quiet every single night we stayed. We left refreshed and ready to return to normal life. Communication with the owners was excellent. Would definitely come back again to watch the surfers and the sea turtles from the balcony.

The views from this place are amazing! In the late afternoon we’d watch turtles from the balcony. All day, you can see surfers ripping it up on the waves. There’s a small shopping area within walking distance- really cute. Communication with owners was great. They were very kind and helpful. The unit itself needs an update. I also didn’t realize we needed to pay an extra $10 per day to use the AC units. The washer and dryer are on the floor, for all residents to use. It’s $5 per load. I was a little late getting my clothes out of wash (maybe 10m, due to waiting for the dryer to be ready) and someone removed my wet clothes and threw them on the counter. Not sure why… they didn’t use the washer.

The condo was as advertised and communication with the owners was pleasant and prompt. The location is really good and the view is wonderful. You just want to sit out on that lanai all day and watch the turtles frolicking along the rocky shore. The weather was very rainy during our stay with some flood warnings so it hampered our time in Kauai a bit but this condo was a very comfortable place to hunker down. I would stay here again.

The view from this condo was worth every penny and then you add in that it was clean, comfortable, and has everything you need for your stay. Beautiful area, close to many shops and resturants. We loved it!!

The views were spectacular! It was hard to explore the rest of the island with that view! We enjoyed watching turtles, fish, surfers, and snorkelers every day. The condo is well stocked and is almost centrally located on the island so it was an easy drive to any location. And do not miss the Beach House Restaurant right next door. Amazing food, views, and live music. We will be back very soon!

We stayed at the condo for 8 days during our vacation in Kauai. The first impression when you walk in is a view of the ocean with surfers, sea turtles, and the sounds of the ocean. It was magical. Denise is very responsive so she was very quick to respond to our questions prior to the trip. When we were at home, it was great to cook meals and watch the waves every night. The condo had lots of little things like a cooler, beach chairs, full kitchen so that made the stay easy. We were a 5 minute drive to Poipu Beach so we could wake up early and see the sea turtles and monk seals leave the beach. There were lots of surfers and snorklers at the beach beside the condo as well so one night we sat there and watched the sunset. The island is very easy to drive around so driving to Waimea Canyon or water activities from Eleele or near the airport was quick. There is a small town 5 mins away with groceries, but the costco/safeway near the airport is only 20 mins away. I would stay here again during our next Kauai vacation!

Property was centrally located, easy to find, quiet, great location for a home base. Closets & cupboards were filled with everything we needed for our comfort. Property could be improved with some upgrades. Host was exceptional in her warm, informative communications with us throughout the entire process.

I think one of our favorite surprises was the sea turtles we could see from the balcony porch every day. We liked the condo bldg - it was quiet. The condo was clean and everything was in great working order & clean. Communication was great. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay! It is very clean, well kept, comfortable, the views are unbeatable, the snorkeling down the road is great, the beach house restaurant did not disappoint. Zero complaints. I miss it!

We enjoyed our 1 week stay and found everything to be as advertised. It was a great place to ride out the Kona Low. The location may be the best on the South Shore! We loved the sound of the waves and literally sitting on the sofa and taking it all in. We would definitely stay here again.

The view and sound of the ocean makes this property outstanding! The property is well equipped for a restful vacation and the snorkelling was fantastic. I cannot thank Denise enough for all of the flexibility during Covid!!

Beautiful condo, top floor facing ocean. Gorgeous lanai/ balcony with table and chairs for dining, plus lounge seating and small tables for two. Kitchen is adequate (you’re on vacation!), plus two baths— one with shower, the other with tub-shower unit. Condo was very clean. Very comfy king size bed with ceiling fan. Lots of mirror walls make condo look very large! That doesn’t detract from the comfort and convenience of this unit. Shops and restaurants nearby. You won’t regret staying here!

You could not be more on the ocean in this place. It was great from the start, with Denise and Gordon working with our schedules, communication for details of the stay, and then the quality of the unit and furnishings. We will be seeking this place out first when returning to the island!

The condo was just as advertised, maybe even better. You couldn't ask for a better location, right on the ocean, I mean 20 ft from the waters edge. Sitting on the patio sipping wine, watching surfers and sea turtles was just a delight. The condo has everything you'll need, including beach towels, chairs, coolers etc. You'll want for nothing. We stay in a lot of VRBO's and the host Denise was the best we've ever had. We highly recommend you stay here, you won't regret it...DS, Cave Creek, AZ.

This property worked perfectly for me and my girlfriend. It was clean, quiet, and in a really good location, within walking distance to shops and restaurants. There are several nice beaches a short drive away. The views were amazing to wake up to and better in person. We saw sea turtles swim by every day. I would definitely stay here again!

What an amazing way to experience Kauai! This condo's view is incredible. It was such a treat to see the turtles swimming in the clear blue ocean. If I had my way I way, I wish I could just sit on the balcony for hours but there was so much to do, that my time was limited in the condo. If you're looking for rest and relaxation this is your place. It was also nice the condo provided beach chairs, umbrella and towels. The small beach that's close by is the perfect location to watch the sunset.

During covid we were very worried about booking a condo as we have heard horror stories about guests losing out money. Not with Denise. Our first line of communication was answered so quick and efficiently and she was so Understanding of our situation with testing. She promised and guaranteed that if we couldn’t fly we would be 100% refunded, She was amazing. Thankfully and blessed we tested negative and off we went. What a beautiful place and an amazing location and view. We had the best week away. The beach equipment we used daily, the kitchen was stocked with everything and even more than we needed. Denise answered a couple of questions we had while we were there. All around it was fantastic. We can not wait to go back and enjoy the beautiful island and amazing condo again. Thank you very much Denise.

We absolutely loved this place. Photos don’t do the view and ocean presence justice. If it’s important to you to be “on the water” you will be very satisfied! The layout is great for visiting (open floor plan) and kitchen had everything we needed for two people doing a moderate amount of cooking. Knives were even sharp 👍. The island curveball was that the AC stopped working about 30 seconds after we turned it on during the pretty hot week we were there. Denise was extremely prompt, proactive, and communicative in troubleshooting this with us, and it also made a big difference that I could tell she really cared about how the inconvenience was impacting us and our trip. Due to the limits of island life/time they weren’t able to get and install he needed part before we left, but Denise gave us a refund that felt totally adequate. We will definitely consider staying here next time! We also found the snorkeling around the condo to be the best of all the spots we explored!

Are you kidding? Just steps from a favorite spot recommended to view the sunset. Just steps from a favorite spot recommended for snorkeling. We watched amazing surfers all day long with a bird's eye view from our 4th floor balcony. Denise even left a pair of binoculars for us to view the turtles from our perch. By car, it is a short drive to Waimea Canyon.... a very short drive to Allerton Gardens, Poipu beach or any number of small secluded beaches we found through the tour book denise left on the coffee table. Beach umbrellas and beach chairs made all the difference for an afternoon out. We will be back!
