Recent Pili Mai at Poipu Reviews


We loved this condo unit (four adults in our group). The property management company communication was excellent! (they texted and emailed). They even provided a welcoming gift basket in the unit for our arrival. The condo was very clean. The condo had signs posted throughout the unit, which provided very useful information and instructions. We were all very impressed with the modern and lovely finishes throughout the unit. The unit is very spacious. The beds were all comfortable. Having three bathrooms was fantastic. The AC worked well, after we adjusted the vents, so that the front bedroom (twin beds) was not so warm. The WiFi worked well too. The kitchen was very nicely and amply equipped for our week long stay, and lots of storage space to boot!. The fridge even had an ice-maker! The unit has a full-size washer & dryer which was very convenient. The views of the mountains and grounds from the lanai were beautiful. There were parking spaces included with the unit. We only ended up using outdoor parking space, as it was most convenient. The pool/hot tub area was very clean. The hot tub was not set too hot, it was the perfect temperature. The complex is very quiet and well maintained. The location is superb! It is walking distance to shopping, restaurants, a few beaches, and nearby orchid/succulent gardens. It's a short drive to all the sights, shops, restaurants, and excursions around the southern Kauai area. We highly recommend this condo unit!

This place was gorgeous! It was very spacious, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with nice dishes, containers, ziplocks, and more. The bedrooms were very nice and large. Lots of towels. The beds were very comfortable. There was also a high chair for my grandson to use. Also lots of beach toys in the garage. This place is amazing, and I can’t wait to stay there again!

I stayed here with a group of 4 friends because it was one of the few places that could sleep five without sharing beds. The unit is great (amazing AC!) and comes with snorkeling equipment and towels for a beach trip. You’re also a 10 minute walk from a swanky shopping center with some great restaurants.I gave 4/5 stars because the dishwasher was broken during our stay. What’s weird is they knew it was broken like three weeks before we arrived, but they still didn’t fix it. Also there were no scissors.

Everything is good. The apartment is huge, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a big living area. The only things disappoint me is that is the nice kitchen there is no seasoning to allow us to cook simple food. I only found very little salt and pepper to use.

Overall, our family had a wonderful stay. The layout of the condo was really great with plenty of space. The beds were very comfortable and the linens were awesome. The added amenities including pool and beach towels, beach chairs, and extra snorkel gear were very convenient. A couple things could be improved as there were only two couches in the living room which, unless you want to be super cozy with your travel mates,

It was in a beautiful Condo area, close toshops and restaurants, and a 4 minute drive to beach. The Condo was immaculate and had a nice pool and hot tub, great covered patio with views of the mountains. The condo had everything you would need for cooking ( supplies). While we were there only 3 nights it was a great stay!

We loved our condo. It was clean, open and bright, everything worked. The laundry was very helpful and the ‘toy closet’ was stocked with chairs, boogie boards, an ice chest and beach umbrellas. There was only one small roll of paper towels and a shortage of coffee filters, so plan on picking up more if you’re staying for a full week with multiple coffee drinkers in the house.

Our unit was absolutely beautiful, and our host took care of every detail. From the wonderful welcoming, fresh flowers, local wine, coffee, and nuts to helping us with any little issue, Shannon was absolutely fantastic. I would highly recommend this unit for anyone traveling with a family. It was very comfortable and well taken care of and have met all of our needs!

My only comments are simply to try and be helpful because this place was FABULOUS!!! It was close to everything we needed to do. So, comment one would just be to perhaps provide a map of the actual condo locations OR better lighting because our unit was difficult to find in the dark. The only other comment is the master bedroom carpet has a large ripple and should be re-stretched as it is atripping hazard. has a large

Great location on the island and fabulous layout of Townhouse located on 2nd level so quite a few stairs to get in. If you don’t mind stairs then perfect. Very clean, it has everything you need for a nice stay. The pool area is great. Pool, hot tub, toddlers pool, sun chairs and umbrellas.

We booked this for a family trip to Kauai and were very pleased. The location is wonderful, and the rooms and grounds were as clean and beautiful as Disneyland! Communication between the host was excellent from the time of booking through checkout. Highly recommend this charming, clean, and lovely location.

This was by far the worst VRBO experience we’ve ever had. We reported the internet was broken just an hour after check-in, and Vacasa, the property manager, completely failed us. Day after day, they promised to send someone to fix it—but no one ever showed up. We spent our entire 5-day stay with no internet, no TV, and no communication unless we followed up ourselves. Vacasa clearly doesn’t care about the guests or the standards they’re supposed to uphold.To make things worse, we were falsely accused of harassing chickens on the property and even threatened with fines by the association. It felt like racial profiling, and when we sent proof that other guests were involved, Vacasa still did nothing. They never followed up, never apologized, and offered zero compensation. For how much we paid, this experience was a joke. Don’t book this place unless you want to be ignored, blamed, and completely let down.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was great and very spacious for our party of 7, loved the two master bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms downstairs. Kitchen had more than enough dishes, cookware, utensils and glassware. Pool and hot tub were crowded in the evening as expected but enjoyable nonetheless. Gym was adequate for a decent workout but wasn’t expecting top of the line amenities as I saw pictures prior to booking. Location in Poipu was great as we traveled all over the island, shopping and restaurants at Poipu Shopping Village is around a .25 mile walk and a short drive to Koloa which had better restaurants in my opinion. Beds were comfortable and condo had plenty of extra bedding and towels. Property management was very timely with check in and out directions and answered quickly to questions/concerns. The only issue we had was with the AC downstairs as it ranged from 78-80 degrees for our entire stay which made watching tv or hanging out in the living room and kitchen almost unbearable. Seems to be an issue as other reviewers had similar comments with AC. Luckily there were 2 portable AC units for the downstairs bedrooms and if we did not have those then this review would not be as positive. We tried to utilize one of these portable units in the kitchen, however, it wasn’t able to cool both the living room and kitchen where it felt comfortable. Property management had an AC technician come out but when I texted and asked for an update, I did not receive a response back and by that point we only had another day and a half left and the portable ACs were sufficient. Upstairs AC did not have issues and felt great so this problem only impacted downstairs. Other than the AC issue downstairs, I would still recommend this condo as long as they continue to provide the portable AC units for use.

Our group of 7 (two couples and 3 teens) stayed here and loved the beautiful grounds and proximity to beaches and shopping. Having two masters was perfect for two families and the space was just right. We spent much of our time on the balcony enjoying the view and pretty birds. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a fantastic weeklong stay at this condo in Poipu! The location couldn’t be better—just a short drive or walk to beautiful beaches, great restaurants, and groceries. It’s perfectly situated for exploring everything the south side of Kauai has to offer. The condo itself was clean, comfortable, and clearly well-maintained. The furniture and appliances all felt like new, and it was fully stocked with everything we needed—including cleaning supplies, beach chairs, umbrellas, and even an ice chest cooler, which made our beach days so easy. The surrounding area is peaceful and quiet, which made for a relaxing stay—though it’s worth noting that the golf course maintenance starts pretty early in the mornings, so if you're a light sleeper, that might be something to keep in mind. All in all, this was a perfect home base for our vacation, and we’d definitely stay here again the next time we visit Kauai!

We loved all the family-friendly amenities the owners provided, from portable cribs to plastic dinnerware for babies to a wide range of pool and beach toys. The unit really felt like a comfortable home that the owners use themselves instead of a sterile rental unit. There was a plumbing problem when we first arrived but the owners were very proactive and got it fixed for us immediately. We would definitely stay here again. Big Mahalo!

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. As others have mentioned, the parking situation for this particular unit is not ideal given the curved driveway. Also, you can hear other guests walking in the unit above you. The unit itself was very spacious and the kitchen was very well stocked with pots/pans and utensils - everything you needed to make a meal. Communication during our stay was very quick and helpful.

The pool and hot tub were great. The grounds are beautiful and the location near all the great beaches. You'll definitely need a car staying here but the beach and local stores are a short drive. Great setup and nice to have a kitchen if you like purchasing local produce to bring back.
