Located in the premier Manualoha community of Poipu Kai resort, our 2 bedroom, 2 bath townhouse style condo is a short downhill stroll to the beach with a fabulous ocean-front pool, a tennis center with 8 courts and landscaped grounds with access to all nearby amenities.

Beautifully renovated and decorated, over 1,300 square feet, perfect for two - four adults or a small family. This is a premier end unit offering maximum privacy for your vacation. There are many windows providing great air-flow to the floral trade winds for cooling day and night. Enjoy your favorite beverage while viewing the spectacular ocean-view sunset from the upstairs lanai. The well-stocked kitchen and outdoor grills allow you to have meals at home, dining outdoors on the main level lanai or in the dining room using the unique hand carved monkey-pod table. The Hawaiian décor and art, some by local artists, provides island ambiance.

The main level of our condo features a large living room with wall-to-wall windows, an open plan kitchen and dining room, a bedroom and bathroom. The living room has a 58 inch flat-screen TV, two recliners and a large sofa for relaxing. The kitchen has black granite tile counters, updated appliances and all the amenities you need to prepare a great meal. The dining room table seats six. The main level bedroom has a king size bed and the full bathroom is located directly across from the bedroom. Both the living room and bedroom have ceiling fans to augment the airflow provided by the cooling trade winds.

A large covered lanai, accessible from the living room, adds 200+ square feet to the living area. Adjacent to the lanai is a grassy area for tanning, planning your day or just relaxing. There are two reclining lounge chairs and a table that seats six for outside use.

The upstairs master suite is a special place. It features two separate lanais. The rear lanai offers an amazing ocean view and is a great spot for late afternoon cocktails or dining, and to view a breath-taking sunset. There is a bright elevated study/sitting area with a full desk located next to in the master suite and a 48 inch flat screen TV in the bedroom. The large master bathroom has two sinks, a walk-in glass block shower and a special etched window that provides beautiful views. The walk-in closet offers plenty of room for hanging and storing your personal items.

The stunning ocean-front Manualoha pool is a short stroll from our front door and has an outdoor shower and rest rooms. The tennis center is just across the grounds and offers weekly drill sessions with the pro, private lessons, or they will happily assist you in setting up a game with locals or visitors. For golfers there are several championship tracks with great ocean views nearby and tee times are very accessible. Brenneckes, Poipu, Sheraton and Shipwreck beaches are all within walking distance. For the more adventurous, close by there is a spectacular hike along the ocean cliffs, past Poipu Bay golf course to the wonderful Mahaulepo Beach.

Our Poipu location is ideal for accessing all of the attractions of Kauai. Waimea Canyon on the West side is a must see - it is called the "Grand Canyon of Hawaii". Hikers will love the variety of hikes into and around the canyon, some of which end with breathtaking views of the Na Pali coast. Nearby Koloa Town offers restaurants, art galleries, wine shops, a local fish market as well as a weekly farmers market. Ku'kuiula village, about 2 miles away, is a newer outdoor mall with unique upscale boutiques and some fantastic dining options. The Kilauea lighthouse is less than an hour away, and from there you can continue to Princeville and Hanalei Bay for north shore beach and shopping options and views of the Na Pali coast. You will love the beauty and spirit of Kauai, and discover first-hand why it is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Our Island home is very special and a great location to enjoy all that Kauai has to offer. Set back from the main walking path, it provides privacy, a feature not always found in a condo. We look forward to making your next vacation one that you will remember for years to come.

This was the perfect base for our first trip to Kauai. In beautiful Poipu just a short walk to the beaches and restaurants. Very well stocked with everything we needed from spices to towels and beach gear and everything in between. Loved the upstairs lanai for breakfast and sunsets and the main floor one for a shady spot to plan the day. The Manualoha pool is perfect. Shade, grass, sun and ocean views. A couple times we had it all to ourselves but also met great people there. Don’t think twice. Book it! A suggestion to the owners to put in a new lock box. We struggled with it a bit, otherwise everything was great.

We like the area, we have stayed in the Poipu area for 11 vacations. The downstairs bedroom does not benefit much from the trade winds as much as the upstairs master bedroom. The provided fan helped out but it is loud. We ate out on the patio everyday. My grandaughter was either in the ocean or in the pool. Poipu beach is about a 5 or so minute walk

Our family of 4 loved our stay here. It’s just minutes walk to Brennecke’s beach where people body surf & boogie board. If you enjoy early morning walks/ jogs, there is a lovely trail on a bluff to Shipwreck beach. We saw many green sea turtles in the area which is a special sighting. The area is full of happy (sunburned) tourists, condos and plenty of restaurants and beaches to delight!

Location was great, close to pool and beach. The upstairs office off bedroom added a nice space for the two kids. The pool/beach toys were so welcome. And the kitchen had everything we ever needed.

Our group of four adults had a great week! The condo is spacious and comfortable. Beds very comfortable. The location is perfect for walking to the beach and walking to both Kalapaki Joe’s and Brenneke Beach Broiler for dinner. We spent time at the pool overlooking the ocean every day. Check in was super easy and we had zero complaints in renting this place. Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much Lynn and Marshall. Your rental home is beautiful, and so comfortable. It was well equipped. The location great. We loved every moment in Kauai. We were worried there was no air conditioning in the condo but that wasn’t an issue. Ceiling fans and the trade winds made it comfortable. Thank you again for great stay and also the info for recommendations for places to visit etc. We would love to visit again. From friends from central Canada from the province of Manitoba and from Northern Canada the Yukon

We stayed 3 weeks in the unit and couldn’t be more pleased. The unit was clean and spacious and the location couldn’t be better. Beautiful sunsets from the lanai off the master bedroom and the lanai off the living room offered privacy and outdoor dining for any meal. The owners and local manager responded quickly to any questions. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing vacation and our stay in Poipu was the icing on top. It was a short walk to Poipu beach where my children were able to snorkel in the “kiddie Pool “. We saw a couple of Honu resting on the beach and in the water. We were able to use the beach chairs, and umbrella that were provided to get the most beach time. It was a short walk to see the sunrise on the other side of shipwreck beach. The pool had an amazing view as did the upstairs lanai and bathroom. The condo was clean, had many kitchen appliances, and spices galore. My husband truly enjoy this as he cooked almost every meal and it was nice to be able to use what was on hand rather than buy at the store and leave behind. There were also games and books but we did not use them but in case you get some rain they are there for your use. There is also a binder with recommendations and gentle reminders. I loved that Marshall thought of all the little details. The island contact was also very responsive. I can not say enough good things. Just trust that you will have an amazing time. Great place and location!

Great spot for our little family. The place has so much to offer - we love cooking and the grill is just steps out front. The back lanai gave us so much more outdoor playing time. Their pantry is stocked and there were ample (unexpected, but great) amenities! Mahalo! We will be back again.

Perfect beach location. Better stocked with all the regular little household necessities (zip lock bags, oil, spices, beach gear, shower stuff, etc) than usual. Upstairs dual shower with ocean view is a real treat. I’d love to stay again.

I loved that the master bedroom was so spacious and upstairs away from the rest of the living space. The lanai and backyard were a wonderful space to hang out and read or share a meal together. The location is close to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island. It was just a wonderful experience overall.

This condo was the best stocked of any place we have ever stayed - it actually had enough paper products of all kinds to last our whole stay. The kitchen had everything we could POSSIBLY want, and we enjoyed our meals in the cool breeze on the lanai every night. I have to say that the lack of curtains on the shower windows was a bit shocking at first - but hey, I guess no one was looking in at that angle. If I were to make one request it would be for another door on the upstairs bathroom. Two doorways and one door was a tad awkward. We had a great stay and would certainly recommend this place to family groups or intimate friends.

Communication with the host and property manager was wonderful, Jeff gave us some great tips on venues/locations to check out. Home is very well stocked (even the kitchen). We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely do it again.



May 2022
We absolutely loved this condo. It is well equipped and we had a great time here. It was in a great location to go to Waimea Canyon (had an awful rainy day and fog so we never did see it) and then to go to the fern grotto tour which was a beautiful. Lots of pots and pans for cooking and spices too. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us.

The pictures online don't do the property justice! It is even bigger and brighter than we expected. Totally walkable to beaches and dining. Plenty roomy for two adults and two little kids. Awesome master bath and shower. Well appointed kitchen made cooking easy and saved us a lot of $$!

My husband, sister-in-law, and I had a lovely stay in this condo. We cooked delicious meals in the well equipped kitchen, greeted the ocean each day with coffee on the upstairs lanai, and enjoyed the spaciousness afforded by this condo with 2 bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The location is perfect for access to activities and the pool sunsets too! The hosts are easy to communicate with throughout.

Staying at this spacious and well appointed and equipped condo was a real treat. The condo offers everything you will need for a great stay, including a really great second floor balcony from which to enjoy the ocean view or the stars at night. The main floor is so spacious and well kept and the second floor suite is special. Also special is dealing with Marshall both in advance of the trip and during our stay. We did experience a couple small equipment glitches which we understand happen from time to time but Marshall and his on island representative Jeff, quickly got those straightened out for us. Excellent condo. Location to the beach is excellent as well. Highly recommend!

Wonderful property - clean, spacious living area for our family of 4, and short walks to pools and beaches. Our kids loved the pool, we ended up spending more time there than at the beach. The kitchen had ample supplies for cooking, master bathroom is spacious with nice views of the greenery. It was rather warm without AC, but fans keep it bearable. Would stay again.

The space was fantastic - loved the upstairs space and view from the upstairs lanai at sunset was spectacular. Easy walk to beaches. Accommodations were equipped adequately - extra nice that there was shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion in the showers! Upstairs mattress not the most comfortable for me. The kitchen had some small cleanliness issues. All-in-all a great please to vrbo.

Just a very short stroll to sunsets and turtles ever night. Or stay right on your upper lani and enjoy the sun melts away and the stars come alive. Well thought out space with room for our family of 5. Brenneckes’s beach is less than 5 minutes by foot. Everything you need in a stay on Kauai.

Everything you would need (and more) for Poipu beach vacation. Walking distance to the beaches. House has beach chairs, towels, umbrella, snorkel gear, a little cooler, and fully stocked kitchen equipment. These little details made a big difference in our vacation. No A/C but plenty of fans for a comfortable night. Photos don’t do it justice. Highly recommend this place - would 100% choose this place again.

Marshall and Lynn’s home was delightful. We appreciated the stocked kitchen and the proximity to the beach and supermarkets, as well as the central location of poipu to everything on the island. Would absolutely come again!


Janelle W.

The condo was very nice and comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay there. Most importantly to us, the beach was VERY close and and an easy walk. The beach was so nice that we never even went to the pool(s). The kitchen was very nice and well stocked. The living area was comfortable and had enough seating for all of us. The upstairs master bedroom and bath were beautiful! The boogie boards and beach chairs ( as well as plenty of beach towels) was SO NICE to have! We would certainly stay at this property again if we ever traveled back to Kauai!

We had a great stay. The kitchen was well stocked with the essentials and it was great to have all beach gear to use as well. It’s a quiet neighborhood. Though the upstairs bed was not very comfortable compared to the downstairs bed, as it seemed older.

The property was great and within walking distance of the beach and pool. The beds were comfortable and the air mattress worked wonderfully for our 9yo daughter. We went with friends and having two spaces with sitting area and a tv was nice to still have private time. Highly recommend

This beautiful condo is well situated- easy walk to both to Poipu Beach and the Grand Hyatt areas. Perfect sunset balcony off the master. Well decorated and stocked kitchen items. The common grill is top line Weber, the same model we have and the staff keeps it very clean. We will become repeat guests on our next visit

My husband and I, along with my parents (82 & 75) met my brother’s family in Kaui for vacation. We wanted property within short walking distance from the beach, 2 bedrooms with one preferably on the first floor for my parents. This property was perfect. Very spacious. First floor bed and full bath (second large bed/bath upstairs). Beautiful lanai and a short 5-7 minute walk to Poipu Beach. Property pool is very nice with a great view of Brennecke Beach! It was very comfortable. The hosts were extremely attentive and responded to all my questions in a timely manner. My only suggestion would be to have a thorough deep cleaning done of the kitchen. The dishes and utensils were clean, as was stove and refrigerator, however, the oven was dirty-we did not use. The sink dish strainer rack was dirty - we did not use, cabinets and drawers were sticky and floor needs a good deep clean. Otherwise I recommend this property and will consider again next time we visit Kaui.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful condo in a great location! Plenty of space for our family of 4, the kitchen was well-pointed and the hosts provided plenty of equipment and toys for the beach. Only a short walk to Brennecke’s Beach and two pools and a hot tub on the property as well. Ocean view from the upstairs lanai was gorgeous.

My husband and I, our 6-year old daughter, and my parents stayed for 4 nights at this condo. It was spacious, clean, comfortable and conveniently located within walking distance to the beach, pools and restaurants. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the basics (we like to do our own cooking) and beds were comfortable—two things that matter most to us ;). Some prior guests complained about it being hot but we found that once all the windows were opened and fans turned on that the inside temps were perfect. There was always a cooling breeze and the fans made all the difference. The upstairs lanai was an incredible place to watch the sunset and we ate dinner up there twice. Overall we really enjoyed staying here and would love to return on a future trip.

What a wonderful home!! Everything about our stay here was wonderful. The house was well supplied and the kitchen and eating areas made making our own meals a delight. The master bedroom veranda provides a great place to eat with a view. Love the master shower too! The location can't be beat for enjoying the area from Poipu beach to the Grand Hyatt cliffs, all within walking distance. We would love to stay here again!!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this condo. It looks just like the photos, and is extremely clean and well-appointed. The property managers, Jeff and Sacha, were so helpful! As described in the listing, there is no AC. For the most part, this was not a problem for us, although in the late afternoon, I kind of wished there was. Nights were comfortable. We live on L.A., so are used to a warm climate. The condo community of Manualeha is beautifully landscaped and quiet. You can walk down to the beach, and to Brenneke’s restaurant. Overall, a really nice place.
