Another stay in this attractive, well equipped condo. Jeffrey is a good host and has thought of everything to make a stay comfortable and the unit has an extremely well supplied kitchen. The unit is situated a short walk from the beach and is in the well maintained lush grounds of Nihi Kai.

We had a fantastic time! The condo was perfectly located to the best beaches. We also had a 2 days of rain so I was grateful the home was comfortable and clean. We will definitely rebook in the future.

The kitchen was adequately equipped. It had an excellent view from upstairs lanai, we even saw a whale from there!!! We had an amazing time in Kauai and the condo fit our needs perfectly! Mahalo!!!

This place was great for many things, walking distance to the beach, a well equipped kitchen, and a comfortable and rather large space with a view of the ocean and sunsets. A few limitations too, there is no actual washer and dryer present, and the place is not optimally maintained, of note there were several poorly functioning screen doors, one of which was actually falling out of its tracks, and there was no attempt to fix this during our week stay. The curtains were torn in some places and not opening and closing easily. Aside from these shortcomings, it still gets a good rating but with room for improvement.

Beautiful property and great location! Easy check in and good communication. The sunsets from the lanai were spectacular

The location was great. Extremely close to the beaches and the kitchen was well updated. However, given the money spent, we were really disappointed in the cleanliness, privacy, and comfort of the unit.The furniture, carpet, and bathrooms were very dirty with all fabric and carpet showing dirt and a peeling toilet seat, mold/mildew in grout around tubs and sinks, and missing baseboards in the bathroom. Only 1 washcloth, 1 bath towel, and 1 beach towel were provided per person which meant A LOT of laundry with a broken dryer door - very inconvenient! This was not a quiet unit with thin walls, neighbors on both sides and above as well as the pool directly out front and no curtains in the living area for privacy. Finally, the seating in the unit was very uncomfortable with benches for dining, and no chair backs on the patio furniture. The wicker chairs are also very uncomfortable. Disappointing when you are tired from swimming and hiking all day. Unit has potential, but failed to meet our expectations.

This air conditioned, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom ground floor unit was very close to parking and incredibly nice. There is a view of the ocean, and the grounds are well kept. Peaceful neighborhood.My brother’s family stayed roughly a mile away at the Marriott Waiohai beach resort. This condo was as large as their suite and much “homier” feeling. All at about 1/4 of what it would’ve cost me at the big resort. There is also a variety of beach gear from Chairs to umbrellas etc… that save on rentals. I was very pleased with my stay and will definitely stay there again if I ever have the opportunity.

We had a wonderful time staying in Poipu at this property. The location is excellent, with an amazing view of the ocean, complex pool and gardens from the lanai. It’s close enough to walk to Poipu beach and the restaurant and coffee shop there (2 blocks) but far enough that it’s quiet. Check in was super easy and there were lots of emails with instructions. There was beach equipment to use, wifi worked well, laundry, kitchen had everything we needed, beds are comfy. There is AC but we didn’t have to use it that much in March. The breeze is good enough. We would definitely stay here again!

Condo exactly as described. Clean unit, everything that you need. We cooked in quite a bit to save . Nice view of the ocean, great complex, and pool. It was very a close walk to Poipu beach and shops. The pop-up bakery was a 5 minute walk! Owners great to work with.Would recommend to anyone! Mahalo.

This luxury condo was clean, fully stocked, and very comfortable. We really enjoyed the lanai looking out to the ocean and beautifully landscaped property! It had everything we could possibly need except a keirig.The kitchen is fully stocked! I had requested one, but that wasn't provided. Beach chairs and other beach gear was great! There are many stairs to climb up and down getting into the condo and to the bedrooms and bathrooms. If stairs are difficult, this isn't the place for you. The only complaint we have is the picture of the pool in the description. That was one reason we booked this place. The pool looks like an infinity pool looking out to the ocean. It is not! It was small, a long walk from our condo, and not looking out to the ocean. It has a wooden gate around it and it is not an infinity pool. Parking is free and convenient being able to park right by the condo. I give this place 5 stars and the pool 1 star!

Excellent location. Saw whales and spinner dolphins almost daily from the second floor lanai. A short walk to Brennecke and Poipu beaches, about 2 and 5 minutes, to see the green turtles and Monk seals. The place was nicely appointed and comfortable. Bedrooms and baths are downstairs. You come in upstairs and the space is very comfortable with a large lanai. Would definitely stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. We stayed in this same complex a couple years ago and this unit was a much better fit. Having everything on one floor was so much better. The view from the Lanai was spectacular and since I got the flu the second day in Kauai, laying in the sun on the Lanai was just what the doctor ordered. I will definitely book this unit again.

This is a lovely place and the description is accurate! You can hear the ocean?m, even though it’s a short walk away :-) The kitchen is decently equipped, the king bed is comfy (only one we slept in).Bring a book light if you want to read, the lamps are all pretty dim…unless you turn on the very bright lights on the ceiling fans…

This place has so much potential, the space and location are amazing as well as the Nihi Kai property is really well managed, unfortunately we faced many issues during our stay, many cockroaches (we expected some but was not normal…nightstands and beds), the mattresses were very uncomfortable and when we checked they were from 1979!, the dryer does not dry the clothes or beach towels -it would takes 3 cycles to be ready for the next day, the kitchen cabinets and bedroom drawers had a smell we had to wash cups, plates and our clothes after unpacking and there was some potential hazard with bathroom doors not working properly and mirror lights missing with open outlets at kids height. Some of the issues were fixed during our stay that’s why I’m giving 3-5 but the beds were something we couldn’t believe. A easy fix for guests to be comfortable. I would not recommend based on current state but as mentioned has great potential.

Septic smells from parking lot filled the condo. Had to keep sliding doors shut. Everyday. This was awful. The Air Conditioner did not keep the lower bedrooms cool. The screens on the sliding doors where off trackThe sliders had curtains that did not provide privacy and were dirty and torn. Washer had mold Dryer door would not shut and had to be taped to closeCoffee grinder did not workNot enough paper towelsPillows had no support

The condo had everything! I mean everything! The beach chairs, boogie boards, wagon were so handy for our beach days. The beach is literally a 1 min walk. The beds were comfortable. The living room furniture was high end with pull out bed. We cooked meals and made lunches each day to take on our day trips. The kitchen literally had everything. We would stay at this exact place again hands down.

What stood out most was truly everything — especially the host. They went above and beyond throughout the entire process and made our stay seamless and welcoming. The amenities were perfect for our family, and the location couldn’t have been more ideal — extra close to the beach with beautiful ocean views. We were lucky enough to see whales right from the deck, and being within walking distance to the sea turtles was unforgettable. Seeing them every single day made this stay incredibly memorable.

Loved the condo, especially the main lanai. Great place for morning coffee and evening cocktails. We cooked only a couple of basic meals but the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed. We loved the walking distance to Brennecke and Poipu beaches and loved being able to utilize the provided beach towels, coolers, beach chairs and umbrellas, and the regular umbrellas for rain showers and the in unit laundry. Would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous all around! The location was spectacular. Just a short walk down to the beach for boogie boarding and snorkeling. The grounds were beautiful and onsite activities (pool and tennis/pickleball courts) were great fun. The condo was beautifully maintained, very comfortable and well stocked will all the essentials. The host was fantastic with communication, check in was a breeze. And then any question during the stay were answered lightning fast! We definitely recommend.
