Everything was wonderful. The location was great. Our condo was steps to the ocean and even fewer steps to the pool. Everything you need was in the condo. We prepared our dinners in the condo and charcoal and gas grills were available. The whole complex was very well maintained. If you like beaches thereis one a very short distance. A Costco is on rhe way from the airport. Also a Safeway. Loved this condo. Everything was great.

This condo exceeded our expectations! It was impeccably clean, felt brand new, and had ample space for myself, my husband, our 4 year old, and our nanny. The location is completely epic, right in the center of Poipu and walking distance to multiple shops, restaurants, the Poipu Athletic Club for drop-in classes, and of course the beach. The views are absolutely stunning, and the pool was great. The check-in process was smooth and easy, and we really appreciated that all we had to do when we left was load and start the dish washer and remove the trash. No stripping beds, starting the washer, etc. It made our departure much easier. Thank you thank you thank you Kevin and Belle for a wonderful stay! We will be back.

Me and my family had such a fun vacation to Kauai! This condo with an ocean front view is absolutely stunning! Great location to walk to the perfect family beach, and a short walk to the shopping center and for a new coffee shop each day. We really enjoyed that the condo was stocked with the basic necessities like everything you need to cook, spices, cooking oil, we did a lot of laundry so it was so convient to have a washer and dryer in the unit! we were also really excited to find a wagon, 4 Tommy Bahama chairs, an umbrella and pickle ball/tennis racks! AND a cooler!!!Really everything you need to enjoy the beach! The pool is also very close and my toddlers enjoyed it very much! We did find two cockroaches in the unit during our stay, one in the bathroom sink, and one crawling across the kitchen floor. Otherwise, it was very clean. Check in process was smooth, the host sent clear instructions with directions, codes to access all the amenities and they even had a concierge directly text me offering local recommendations for things to do and places to eat! We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this condo ocean view to others! Loved getting to wake up and look right out at the ocean, skyline. The unit has AC which was nice, although in the upstairs oceanview bedroom the AC vent in the ceiling had a slow drip onto the floor due to condensation. Unsure if this is normal or not. It really wasn’t a problem for us tho! Overall 10 stars!!

We loved our stay. It was our first time back to Kauai in 35 years, and it lived up to the memory! The condo was conveniently located; close to beaches, restaurants and other activities, yet was quiet and serene. We loved having our morning coffee on the lanai, watching the sunrise and sunset, walking down to Poipu Beach, seeing sea turtles, Monk seals and even breaching whales. The unit was very clean and well-equipped, from the kitchen to the coolers, beach chairs and umbrellas. Our hosts were very attentive to details (they thought of everything!) and were easy to communicate with. We feel so fortunate that Amy and Jerry shared their island home with us! We hope to be able to come back soon! I would highly recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed the location, having close dedicated parking space and easy access to the pool as well as beach and pool towels, umbrellas, fans and AC in the bedroom but the cross breeze in April was amazing!. We loved being able to walk to multiple beaches, restaurants and more. We will definitely be back!!

This property is the best unit in the best property on south shore! Kiahuna beach is the steps away and was our favorite beach- swimming and snorkeling. The property managers were clear with communication and swiftly addressed a minor issue without interfering with our stay. One note- the daybed in the guest room didn't seem to be a full size twin. Perfect for our kid but an adult wouldn't be pleased. Thanks for a memorable stay!

We loved condo 30- it was beautifully furnished Hawaiian style. It was immaculate and ready for us when we arrived-complete with Island music. The location couldn't have been better. We have stayed at several places in Kauai and this was by far the best! Thank you for a perfect stay.

Overall, we had a great experience with the condo itself. Condition was good and well kept. The views of the ocean were great, and it was easy walking distance to a nice beach with swimming. During our stay it seemed like the complex was largely for older couples so just something to keep in mind if you are traveling with kids - our kids had more fun at the beach vs the pool as a result. My only issue with the condo and the reason I would not stay here again is that a road runs in front of the unit which impacted the experience for us. There was a pretty consistent stream of cars and people walking on the road. There was not excessive noise so while this is probably fine for many, I prefer a quieter, more private experience so the road was not ideal. Overall, though, a really good experience.

Big rooms. Plenty of space. Gorgeous view from patio and Main bedroom. Gorgeous grounds. Well equipped. Only drawback was lack of a/c and no ocean breeze. Room units in familyroom and Main bedroom did not function well. Second bedroom unit worked okay.

Score lower than 5 stars:1. The downstairs bathroom was not very clean.2. The Neighborhood had some issues in the evening. The street parking, racing (happened once), tire screeching where not expected in this small piece of paradise.

We are so impressed at how comfortable, clean and well appointed this condo is. The managers make it really easy to arrive and get settled with excellent communication, and that excellent communication continues when you get there. The furnishings are super comfortable. The AC keeps the temperature perfect without leaving you feeling like you are in a cooler. This is the kind of rental you can spend lots of time in relaxing and being comfortable, using as a home base for your other activities, or both. We will surely stay here again. Thank you to the owners and managers who have put such excellent care and attention into making this an excellent destination.

This property is at the far NW corner of the Kiahuna Plantation resort. Very easy walk across the street to shopping complex. Fairly short walk to good beach (~5 min). Traffic noise is an issue in the morning, being right next to Poipu Rd. Grounds are well kept and lots of very large/old fig and monkeypod trees

What can be better than an ocean front view in a comfortable, well-equipped home watching whales breaching and enjoying sunset and sunrise every day! This property is well positioned to drive to activities around the entire island as well as enjoying local dining and shopping options. The hosts are very responsive and professional. We loved it.

It was our second time staying at Poipu Kapili, and it did not disappoint! The sunset views from the wall were breathtaking, and we were lucky to spot sea turtles two nights in a row. The unit was spotless, with every detail thoughtfully arranged to make our stay comfortable. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to the beach and nearby shops and restaurants. We can’t wait to come back for our next visit!

Fantastic resort in a great location. Condo unit overlooks the pool and ends the day with a beautiful sunset view. Close access to beach, restaurants, golf courses and more. Thank you for making our 30th Anniversary so special.

First and foremost, this property is incredibly beautiful— even better than shown in the pictures—and the location is perfect. The only things that kept me from giving it 5 stars are as follows: Air Conditioning: The air conditioner in the master bedroom needs an upgrade. It is a portable unit connected to the outside wall with duct tape. It's really loud and inefficient due to the exhaust duct leaking a considerable amount of hot air back into the room. If this were a second-floor unit where the doors could be kept open without security concerns, the breeze might be enough for the evening and night without additional cooling, but not after the daytime heat build-up from being closed. On a side note, the door screens could use some attention as well. I’m from Texas and appreciate any A/C, but this is a million-dollar condo and should have a professionally installed unit in the master. Cable Box: We were never able to get sound from the cable. The owner was contacted, but the problem was never resolved. This was simply a nuisance, but it would have been nice to hear the activities on the Kauai channel and local news. Streaming worked fine. Coffee Maker: The Keurig worked well, but we bought ground coffee to save on plastic. The small 5-cup drip coffee maker took so long to brew that it would cut off at 4 cups. A new 10 or 12-cup coffee maker would make mornings a lot nicer. Overall, I highly recommend this property.
