We loved our stay here! We loved sitting on the balcony looking at the beautiful ocean and seeing sea turtles! We also really appreciated the beach chairs and towels! Condo was in great condition!

I wanted a place beach front. This location ended up as a great alternative since the walk was not far. The one-bedroom was very clean. Everything you’d need to have a comfortable stay was made available. I didn’t need the air conditioner. Open up the folders and enjoy the ocean breeze! The property owner was in-touch with all the details. Answered all my questions. You’ll definitely need to rent a car. The drive to the location was beautiful!

We were specifically looking for a location that would be walkable to dining, beaches, shopping and outdoor running paths. Rick’s place hit every mark! This condo is central to everything you could need or want in the South - it’s also beautifully decorated, comfortable and clean! Rick has every kind of water toy/boogie board/beach chair tucked right in! Snorkeling at Lawai Beach is INCREDIBLE! Our teens were thrilled!
Authentic Kaua’i bites less than 5 minutes from the condo at Kukui’ula Market - fresh poke, açaí bowls and local fare in the market to take home! Multiple shave ice shops in walking distance - Riptides & Uncles. Easy walk for a morning coffee and fresh local fruit stands, coconut drinks that pop up along the side of the road daily! You will not be disappointed & like us, will never want to leave! Mahalo Kaua’i & Rick for a most memorable trip to this beautiful island!

Loved our stay at Kuhio Shores! The location, amenities, view of ocean and turtles below us were amazing. AC was appreciated and condo was beautiful, also close to everything.

Loved being right on the ocean. Opened the windows and slept like a baby every night. Close to several beaches and the two primary shopping and dining areas. The condo was in great shape and the perfect size and layout for a couple to stay. Coffee each morning steps from the ocean was exceptional. The host was super responsive as well. It was an amazing week!

The condo was just the right size. The owners were very quick to answer all of our questions. Located right next to a snorkeling beach and nice restaurant-The Beach House.

This property was perfect in every way! The views are absolutely breathtaking. The unit itself is well equipped and close to plenty of shopping and restaurants. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer. While visiting we did the Na Pali Rider excursion along the coast and it was beautiful to say the very least. Also, for pet lovers, we booked a field trip with a dog from the Kauai Humane Society for a day and had a wonderful experience.

We enjoyed our stay here for a few days while attending a wedding. Couldn’t beat the view from the balcony or being so close to the Beach House next door to grab a drink at sunset.
Clean, excellent parking, no musty smells, no creepy crawlers spotted. Bed had nice white linen on it.

Wonderful place! And even better than expected. The home was well-stocked with everything you could want and expect (kitchenware, beach gear, first aid, etc). It’s clean, comfortable, and a beautiful place to be. I feel so lucky for being able to stay here. Thank you for sharing!

The condo lived up to its description and more. Location is fantastic, nice view of weddings next door, glimpses of turtles, great surf-watching. Everything was spotless and very comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen. Jack was attentive and very prompt in respinding to questions. I can’t say enough good things about it.

This place is perfect if you love sunshine, hearing the waves, and having fun! The inside was in perfect condition and super nice. Fresh fruit stand was setup directly across the street for breakfast. Beach house restaurant was amazing and less than a min walk. This place is truly the best in complex. Views are incredible. Owner was so helpful and setup that I could get leis delivered and into the unit for our arrival. 10/10

Absolutely loved staying here. The location is so spectacular that many people come to hang out in front of the condo to view. We loved watching the surfers & turtles swimming every day. We appreciated that the condo was well stocked (since the place we stayed on the north side was a bit sparse). Plenty of towels, toilet paper, stuff to play at the beach. Our only observation is the slatted doors give no privacy at all. We were two couples and a little privacy would have been nice but we made it work. We understand that it is helpful for circulation. Maybe someday the bathrooms should have solid doors, you could hear everything BUT that wouldn't stop us from staying again in this beautiful, comfortable, accommodating condo.
June 2024
We absolutely loved our stay in Kauai! The condo was in the best location, walking distance to many beautiful beaches and shopping centers. We could not get over the fish and turtles we saw from our balcony. We could have stayed out there the whole trip. They have everything you need to cook at home and everything you want for a beach day. Already looking forward to the next time we get to stay here!

The condo is beautiful, location is great. Our only issue was all the foot traffic continually walking right by the patio. Early morning with people with their surfboards and afternoon with their coolers/chairs to watch the sunset. Appears to be a very popular path with the locals or visitors. It's a narrow path between the patio and the water so people are very close to you when they stroll by.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kuhio Shores. The condo was perfect for my wife and I. Coffee in the morning and afternoons watching the sea turtles on the lanai were probably our favorite parts. The condo has all you need for meals there, as well as beach chairs, umbrella, cooler etc. Communication with Chris was easy and he was very quick to answer any questions we had. The Beach House restaurant next door was really good, expensive, but really good. We saw mixed reviewed on line, but we went once for dinner and once for happy hour and were impressed both times.
There are small beaches you can walk to, Lawai on the other side of the Beachhouse, and Baby Beach a block or so away.
We would stay here again for sure!

Amazing views! We spent hours watching the surfers and turtles. Good location with lots of restaurants near by. The king size bed was comfortable and the a/c was needed and appreciated. The kitchen was well enough stocked for the bit of eating we did at home. The bathroom was nicely renovated. On the downside, the living room furniture was a bit worn and most disappointing was the furniture in the lanai where we spent some time. Please add a bar height table to be able to see over the railing and some comfortable chairs!

Great condo with a fabulous view. Traveled with my 90 year old father and he just wanted to sit and watch the ocean- this was perfect right down to the overstuffed recliner! Well equipped kitchen although cutting knives could use being sharpened. Great location and close to many activities and shopping. Check in was smooth.

This condo right was just perfect. Outfitted with everything you would want or need. Loved waking up and going to sleep with the sound of the ocean. The oceanfront view was amazing. Loved watching the surfers everyday! Will be back here again for sure!

The views were amazing and as pictured. We saw lots of sea turtles from our balcony. The place was clean and well stocked. The beach chairs, umbrella and boogie boards were nice to have. The main bedroom and living room cooled down nicely with the a/c but there was none in the second bedroom so it was a bit warm at night even with the fans but everything else was great. It's a great location.

We loved our stay at Kuhio Shores! It is really beautiful location, the amenities were perfect. Thank you for local goodies. The views of the ocean were great. Our apartment was the first towards the road side area, so at times late night you can hear some commotion. But nothing that bad. The space was clean. Location could not be better. We would return to this place again in future.

We spent a week at this condo and couldn't have been more happy with our choice. Rick was great with communication before the trip and super responsive to any of our messages during our stay.
The condo itself was immaculate. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, dinnerware, and small appliances. It has everything you will need for meal preparation. It also has recreational gear for enjoying the beautiful beaches of Kauai - beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel gear, and a cooler to keep your drinks and food cold. Everything in the condo was very well organized.
The lanai provides an incredible view of the ocean and has comfortable chairs for enjoying the view and the sound of the waves. We saw sea turtles and spinner dolphins (and of course the surfers enjoying the waves)
The bedrooms were comfortable. Each room includes its own A/C unit and ceiling fan, and has ample storage for your clothing.
The main living area was a large great room with kitchen, dining, and living areas. It also included an A/C unit.
Lawai beach is a short walk from the condo and has some great snorkeling. The Shops at Kukui'ula is a convenient 2 minute drive. In addition to the shopping you will find some excellent restaurants, ice cream, and shave ice. There is also a Long's Drugs. Poipu Beach, Brenneke's, and Kiahuna are 3 beaches with just a 5 minute drive.
We will definitely be back...

The furniture is old and rather faded. The view is partial ocean and approaching road. Great modern counter appliances with old burners on stove and old refrigerator. The bed is very comfortable. Furniture everywhere is dated. Honestly the whole property looks worn out. We did fine but I would never stay here again.

Our family of four (including two teens) had a great stay in Poipu and would be happy to stay in this condo again. We loved seeing and hearing the ocean each day, and the views from the lanai were amazing, including the ocean, surfers, turtles, snorkelers, and so on. We saw turtles in the water near the rocky shoreline on most days and also enjoyed the scene and views at sunset. This property is right next to Lawai Beach and the Beach House restaurant so it is a destination point for many at sunset. The kitchen had everything we needed for our meals, and we also appreciated and enjoyed the proximity to all the local attractions. There is so much to do in the area.
(Note: If you are someone who prefers or requires resort-like amenities, this place may not be for you. For our family, it was perfect.)

Can’t imagine a better view of the coast. We left the door and windows open to listen to the surf all night long. We saw many turtles just a few yards from the patio every day. Highly recommend this for nature lovers. Communication was excellent as well.

This condo came as advertised and more. We really enjoyed looking out to watch the activity in the ocean just a few feet away, surfers challenged by the incoming waves and sea turtles feeding along the shore. My wife almost cried as we left, and has since set up a Spotify play list of ocean waves to immitate the sounds of the sea crashing on the rocks. We visited the more popular parts of Poipu but prefer the Lawa'i Road area that's a little quieter and leads out to the Spouted Horn and Allerton Gardens. The old sugar mill ambiance of Kukui'ula Village shopping center is less than a mile away. Overall, a great place to stay!

I took my 25 and 23 grandsons to Kauai and really wanted a central place to stay. They both surf and the best place was in front of our condo. Having 2 bedrooms and baths gave us privacy and the beds were super comfy. We spent most of our time on the patio just listening and watching the surf. We chose the perfect condo and I highly recommend staying there.

The condo is located in a beautiful area of Koloa in Poipu. The pictures are accurate. The interior of the condo was newly updated and decorated nicely. Everything was super clean and we had everything we needed. The owner Sara, was very responsive and communicated quickly. We didn’t need anything but I could tell she would have helped us if we did. Also, she loves her home and the island, too. There’s the personal commitment. There are beach chairs to take out to the lawn on the front of the building to watch the sunsets ( incredible), the surfers, listen to the surf or watch the wedding couples take pictures. For a fabulous dinner walk next door (literally) to The Beach House. But be sure to make reservations a few days in advance. The
island itself is magical and the location of the condo allows you to go to Waimea Canyon, Waimea Falls, the Botanical Garden tour, Blowhole, then around the island to go tubing ,
Then to beautiful Hanalei Bay and the town of Hanalei and don’t forget to get a Shave Ice. Enjoy!!!

This place is as advertised with a great view and nice one story condo. The neighborhood was nice and we traveled north and west around the island and felt it was centrally located for our needs. We enjoyed the Poipu area. When I had questions, he was quick to respond and gave us lots of information.

The views from the condo were spectacular! The afternoons were the best times to watch the turtles in the waves. Surfers start early and go all day. It was also fun to go walk by the rocks at low tide to see crabs. There was a beach with in short walking distance but it wasn’t very big. We needed to drive to better beaches. Locking the door was tricky but Walt was very responsive . They do have nice beach hairs and umbrella available to use. I would enjoy sting again!!

Once you enter the building you need to sign your name in the book by the door, there are 2 lifts if you do not want to walk up the stairs. Smooth check in, the condo is specious and has an amazing view of the ocean. There is everything in the kitchen if you want to cook. There were yoga mat, cooler, snorkeling gear. The whole complex is right next to the road, definately not a busy road like some people are describing. We slept with the windows open to listen to the ocean waves.

Loved the location!! The property is lovely and I would give it a 4.5 if I could, versus the 4.0. It has all of what is needed for beach/ocean play. The bathroom shower floor needs some refreshing. The A/C in the bedroom is very noisy so we used it just one night. However, it was not needed with the overhead fan and windows. Bed is very comfy. The living room furniture needs to be a bit more conversational - maybe 2 comfortable chairs across from the couch. I would go there again! Thank you!
