Welcome to a quietly luxurious two-bedroom, two-bath condo set directly above the Pacific in the heart of Poipu. Under new ownership, this beautifully refreshed retreat has been thoughtfully redesigned with comfort and refined island living in mind — natural textures, soft neutral tones, and quality materials that feel intentional without being overdone.



True Oceanfront — Directly Above the Water

Very few Kauai rentals offer this level of closeness to the sea. Slide open the doors and let the trade winds move through. In the evenings, the rhythm of the waves becomes part of your rest. This isn't just an ocean view — it's an ocean experience.



Walk to Beaches, Snorkeling & Dining

Two white-sand beaches known for swimming and snorkeling are just steps away. Sea turtles and tropical fish are regular visitors in nearby waters. Oceanfront restaurants, coffee shops, and boutique shopping are all within easy walking distance — many guests park once and never move their car.



Designed for Restful Living

Every detail supports comfort after a day in the sun: high-quality bedding and soft linens, warm evening lighting, ceiling fans and climate control, and a fully equipped kitchen for relaxed meals at home. The layout is open and easy — ideal for couples, anniversaries, or a restorative escape.



Attentive, Hands-On Ownership

While new to VRBO, this condo has been a highly rated vacation rental for years on another major platform, with dozens of positive reviews and many returning guests. It is professionally maintained, meticulously cleaned, and personally overseen by owners who are responsive from booking through departure.

Fantastic place in a perfect location. Unbelievable views, surfing and snorkeling right out front. Easy walkability…just a great place.

If you like incredible views, upscale furnishings/amenities, and extremely responsive hosts, then this property is for you! Every feature in this condo was clearly very thoughtfully curated and reflects the organic nature of the island. The personal touches were very much appreciated such as the welcome book, which highlights all of the local markets, restaurants, activities and their proximity to the condo. The bathrooms were supplied with high end toiletries, and the kitchen with a variety of Starbucks coffee and a good selection of seasonings. Upon arrival, we found a handwritten note, (along with the best cookies I have ever eaten) from out hosts, welcoming us and acknowledging our anniversary.

On arrival the condo was even more beautiful than depicted in the pictures. Prior to arrival the staff was very attentive to check-in details and responsive to questions. The accomodations were amazingly thoughtful, with a full well organized kitchen, separate bathrooms for the two bedrooms. For there beach there were towels, throw blankets, and a bin of beach equipment (chairs, beach umbrella, snorkels/fins, boogey board etc.). It was a great venue for family in other units to gather for meals and games. Overall, the modestly higher cost relative to other units in Kuhio Shores was entirely worth it.

This is a beautiful condo! We’ve stayed at Kuhio Shores before and love the location—right on the water, walking distance to shops and restaurants, and a short drive to some great hikes. This apartment was hands down our favorite ever. We loved the beautiful finishes, great use of space and comfortable furniture. The view was amazing and we loved the sound of the ocean. We’ll be going back to this apartment whenever it’s available because it really made a difference in our enjoyment of the condo complex.

Insider tips

Good to know at Kuhio Shores

  • In the late afternoon, carry a chair and a drink around to the lawn on the other side of the building, where people gather to watch the surfers and the sun go down.
  • For snorkeling without the car, walk around the west end of the building to the small beach by the restaurant, where green sea turtles and plenty of reef fish swim close in.
  • As dusk settles most evenings, flocks of green parakeets fly in to roost in the palm trees around the property, filling the air with their chatter.
