Good communication from before booking through the entire stay.

Not as close to the beach as expected, but still walkable. The AC was a perfect addition to the place, couldn't imagine it without! The fan and light blew circuits frequently, which the host gave instructions on how to fix. It was annoying to do multiple times, so we ended up not using them. The house was well equipped, but the downstairs couch was extremely uncomfortable with springs pushing through. The host said a replacement was coming, but that was not conveyed in the listing, which made the evenings less enjoyable. The house came with an excellent supply of beach equipment: coolers, bodyboards, umbrellas, chairs, etc. Overall, a good experience and would recommend.

A wonderfully appointed very clean condo with AC and ceiling fans, excellent mattresses, bed linens and a well stocked kitchen. Being able to walk to 3 beaches was fabulous. Turtles swim to rest on the sand of Poipu Beach! The 2 pools on the grounds of the complex were terrific. Thanks to Michelle for her excellent communication.

This condo was in the perfect location and very comfortable for me, my husband, and our four teenagers. The central AC was a huge plus! We had family staying in another unit without AC in the living areas and it was not nearly as pleasant to hang out there. Our favorite part was the condo pool that overlooked the ocean. We spent hours there! We enjoyed going to the Athletic Club pool as well. We loved being close enough to walk to the beach for swimming or to watch the sunset and down to the pop-up bakery at Brennecke's for coffee in the morning. We had a great 10 days and would definitely stay here again!

5-Star Review: Perfect Poipu Condo Stay!We just returned from a wonderful week at this charming condo in Poipu, Kauai, and I can’t recommend it enough. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home—spotlessly clean with thoughtful touches throughout. The cleaning standard was impeccable; everything sparkled, from the kitchen counters to the bathrooms.The air conditioning units worked beautifully and kept the entire place cool and comfortable even during the warmer afternoons—such a blessing in paradise! The supplies were wonderful too: fully stocked kitchen with quality cookware, plenty of towels and linens, beach gear (cooler, chairs, umbrellas), and even some welcome snacks and toiletries. It made settling in effortless.Location-wise, it’s ideally situated—just a short stroll to the beach (Poipu Beach Park is super close for snorkeling and relaxing) and convenient to shopping and dining at the Poipu Shopping Village and nearby spots. We loved being able to grab groceries, coffee, or souvenirs without a long drive.The condo itself is bright, spacious enough for our family, and the lanai was perfect for morning coffee while listening to the ocean. Everything was exactly as described (or better), and the host was responsive and helpful. We felt safe, relaxed, and truly enjoyed every minute.If you’re considering Poipu, book this place without hesitation. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit to Kauai! Mahalo for an amazing stay.

Our host was very good to work with. She was patient with us as we had difficulty with the keyless system entering the condo. It was a case of operator error, and she stepped us through the process over the phone.

Lovely condo close to the beaches. Quiet at night, well laid out so everyone had their own space. Super clean resort, great pools and hot tub for after-beach warming. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place to stay! Beach was within a short walk. Amenities were great!

A four minute walk to the beach combined with A/C make this condo a solid value. Though there is no ocean view, most aspects of unit 704 provide a winning formula. The owner provided a detailed guide prior to check-in, which was also available in a binder in the condo. We consulted the guide numerous times for details on the various aspects of the unit. A map of the Poipu Kai complex would be a helpful addition to the guest info binder.
The kitchen appliances, including the washer and dryer, were newer models in good condition. 
The stovetop needs a deep clean. The bathrooms have been redone recently, and are very nicely appointed.The A/C worked great. It’s wonderful to be comfortable after a long day in the sun. The outdoor table and chairs are in great condition, though the outdoor loungers need to be replaced.The dining table is good for plating, writing, and organizing. The main sofa is not particularly comfortable (you can feel springs and overall lumpiness in the cushions).We saw the need to replace the kitchen cabinets. The current cabinets are sticky from too many coats of paint. Several of them don’t close properly.As we are tidier than most, we see the need for the carpet to be replaced. It’s worn, and sticky.
Overall, this condo is a good value proposition.

Nice property. Really enjoy our stay. Great Location to beaches and pools Queen Bed frame super squeaky. And mattress really firm.

Wonderful condo and property. We stayed there with 2 families (4 adults, 13yo, 2x 7yo's, 5yo, 3yo, and 1yo. Plenty of space for everyone. Kitchen with all the amenities, washer/dryer, 3 bathrooms, made living easy. Walk out to lanai and grass area. 3 minute walk (walking slowly) to the pool and another 3 minute walk (walking slow) to the beach. Only complaint is that they made us leave at the end of our stay.

Great location, 5 minute walk to the beach as advertised. New AC units were a great addition as the condo stayed comfortable at all times. Host provided everything we needed including umbrellas, beach chairs and other amenities. We highly recommend and would stay here again.

This condo was perfect for our family of 5. The space was clean, had all the necessities needed for at home and the beach, and it was close to some of the best beaches in Kauai and Puka Dogs. Michelle was quick to respond if we had questions or needed help. Thank you for creating a comfortable space.

This condo was great. Spacious for adults and kids. The property was well kept as well as the pools. It was a 5 minute walk or less to the beach. Beach equipment was included as well as kids play toys. We would stay there again.

We enjoyed a fantastic holiday in this condo. The checkin instructions were easy to follow which was great since we arrived at night. Lovely to find some basics for our first morning - especially coffee and cream! The host was VERY responsive when we had a minor issue with the automatic lock and the problem was solved immediately. Very safe area. Short walk to several clean beaches, choose your own adventure for snorkelling, body surfing, watching turtles, seals or just lounging in the sun and calm swims in the sea. Attentive lifeguards also reassuring! The pool was also a nice alternative. Overall we had a fantastic visit and would love to visit again soon.

We loved that we could walk to Brennecks and Poipu beaches. We would also walk to Shipwreck beach to watch the sunrise. The house was clean and the beds were some of the best I’ve slept in a VRBO. This was a great condo in a great locations

This was the perfect condo for our ten day Kauai vacation. Our three year old (going on six years old) loved the upstairs bedroom. My wife and I loved the master, including a large walk in closet that was perfect for our one year old to have separated sleeping space in the provided pack-n-play. My parents enjoyed their own bedroom on the main level.The couple (very minor) items we noted were already being worked on by the new owners and getting upgraded. The complex, which is part of a larger HOA, seemed very well taken care of. The HOA was in the process of replacing roofs of nearby buildings in the complex while we were there, which added noise near us the last day, but appreciated the proactive maintenance that will already be complete for the unit by the time anyone reads this review.Overall, I'd highly recommend this condo and the owner Michelle, who made sure everything was great and quickly responded to any questions and asks for additional accommodations (late checkout).

Plenty of space for the 10 (6 adults 4 young kids) people in our group. Easy walk to the beach and pools. Another Plus was parking spaces were really close to the entrance of the condo! There were lots of sand toys, toddler water floaties, body boards, highchair, baby spoons etc. So many convenient items that you do not need to bring.I would absolutely recommend staying here again. Michelle was great also answering any questions I had before and also as needed during the stay. Very attentive host.

We loved the floorpan of this unit and the location was just perfect. Easy to get around either with a short drive or just walk! The walking paths that wind through this gorgeous area were really nice to hit early in the mornings. The pools are nice and the pickleball courts were a bonus.

This place was perfect for a family stay. Beds were comfy, AC in each bedroom, and nice bathrooms. We cooked several meals and had everything we needed. Pools were beautiful. Would definitely stay again.

We loved the quiet condo complex, beautiful in it's own right, but the short walk to two beaches was a dream.

Insider tips

Good to know at Manualoha at Poipu Kai

  • Down at Poipu Beach, green sea turtles and Hawaiian monk seals often rest on the sand, and the protected little bay is calm enough to snorkel among reef fish.
  • For a swim with a view, the Manualoha pool looks out over the Pacific, with shade, grass and loungers, and a second pool nearby for a change of scene.
  • On foot to the sand, follow the paved greenway lined with plumeria, and use the paths that wind through the area for an easy run or long walk.
