Summary:
The real luxury here is sitting on the lanai with the Pacific and Prince Kuhio's surf break in front of you. Kuhio Shores 208, a one-bedroom condo, is designed for two, with floor-to-ceiling windows carrying the ocean view into the living room and an open kitchen for breakfast before the South Shore calls. Partial air conditioning offers a cool-down after time in the sun, and elevator access makes arrival easier. Lawai Beach is close by, while Brennecke's Beach and Poipu Beach Park are a short drive for a sandier swim day. Kukui'ula is nearby for groceries or dinner. Choose this home for the couple who would rather watch the surf from their own lanai than settle for a distant ocean glimpse.
The Space:
Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the Pacific into the living room, where a couch and oversized armchair give you a front-row seat. The open kitchen has tile counters, full-size appliances, and a dining table for four. A king bed and walk-in shower complete the 854-square-foot home for two. Partial air conditioning provides added comfort after beach time.
Guest Access:
Guests at Kuhio Shores enjoy access to the oceanfront communal pool, hot tub, and fitness center, plus lush garden grounds throughout the complex. An elevator and disabled parking spot make getting around easy, and the beachfront setting puts sand and surf just steps from your lanai. Accessible-height beds and toilets are available for added comfort.
The Neighborhood:
Kuhio Shores sits beside Lawai Beach on Kauai's sunny South Shore, where the shoreline, reef, and surfers make a simple walk outside feel like an outing. Poipu Beach Park and Brennecke's Beach are a short drive for sandy swimming, while nearby Prince Kuhio Park adds a quieter historical stop. Kukui'ula brings groceries, restaurants, and a farmers market within reach. This pocket of Poipu favors couples who want an ocean-focused stay with practical stops close by.
Getting Around:
Lihue Airport is about 30 to 40 minutes away, a pretty drive across Kauai's south shore. A rental car is recommended to reach Poipu's beaches, Koloa town's shops, and nearby dining with ease. Old Koloa Town is walkable for boutiques and restaurants, while beautiful beaches are just a short drive away. Parking is generally available on site or in small lots around town.

Lovely condo. We loved watching turtles in the bay from the porch and sunset from the beach access. Highly recommend getting a dinner reservation next door as well. Easy walk to the shopping center about 0.5 mile away.

The condo was comfortable for just the two of us. The location was excellent! It is close to many activities, ocean front with stunning views. The king sized bed was a treat at the end of a busy day. There were a few annoying things, some of which could not be helped. The in unit AC was broken. We were told ahead of time and there were two portable AC units placed inside. They worked well but were quite noisy. The wifi internet repeatedly disconnected. It must be an ongoing problem, as it was mentioned in the things to know notebook. It was a pain! Sure wish the was a washer and dryer in the unit. It cost 12 for two loads of laundry. It would have been greatly appreciated to have a few more things in the kitchen, such as baggies, foil, and maybe a few spices.Even with the annoyances we would stay here again.Aloha!

Great central location. We enjoyed watching the young surfers who took advantage of a swell. We could hear chairs moving in condo above us. But it was on rare occasions and didn’t bother us. The beach next door is not the best for swimming as there are many rocks. There are lots of beaches nearby. Our favorites, though, were on the north shore. We really enjoyed our stay! Mahalo!

This oceanfront property had everything we needed, and as a bonus we saw turtles right from our balcony.
