Beautiful apartment and views of the ocean were PERFECT! Only a 5 minute walk to the beach and the interiors are accurate to all the photos. Loved that we had a washer / dryer to use during our stay! Would recommend to anyone staying in Poipu & the hosts were very kind and accommodating wherever possible.

Amazing property!!! The views off the balcony can’t be beat. You can see sea turtles all day. The location of this property is great. Minutes from the beach, shopping, and restaurants. We loved Poipu beach and see the turtles and monk seals. Communication was awesome with the owner and check in and check out was seamless. Great property!

We absolutely loved staying here!!! The condo was clean and decorated so perfect. The location right on the ocean was amazing!! You could hear the waves at night and see turtles swimming by. It was a very short walk to the beach. We are going to stay here again!

Wonderful stay and view. The lack of beach is made up by a great pool area. Loved watching the turtles frolicking just below the condo

Clean and comfortable, and we especially loved the spacious patio overlooking the small cove. We would definitely stay there again if we could have the same unit 101C.

Amazing location and incredible views....older property but clean and comfortable. Only negative was the A/C....the cross-breeze is somewhat limited so 2nd bedroom can be a bit uncomfortable even with multiple fans.

This was the best of 3 places we stayed on the island. It has a view along the coast that is breathtaking.We loved the sounds of the waves hitting the rocky coast and seeing the Sea turtles right from the balcony..

The views are incomparable. However, while described as "not a luxury stay", the unit is priced higher than similar units we saw at the complex with updated furnishings and a higher cleaning standard. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable and needs replaced. Kitchen appliances and tools for food prep are in need of updating and refreshing. The owner's communication was excellent and it's clear she is a very responsible host.

This Poipu condo is perfectly set up for a great stay. Hosts provide beach chairs & an umbrella, beach cart, snorkeling gear—and we left new fins for future guests!AC works great, W/D in unit and the view & location, breathtaking. Sunsets are spectacular and we lucked out for full moonrises too. Only great things to say. Mahalo!

Our stay in Kauai was amazing and we truly loved the VRBO. Sitting on the deck watching the waves was the best! A very relaxing stay and the condo met all our needs.

We enjoyed everything about our stay. The unit is nicely appointed and had everything we needed and more, but the oceanfront location was the highlight. We’ve been to Hawaii about 20 times and have stayed in some wonderful places, all with ocean views, but none has matched this. We will definitely return.

From seeing sea turtles sand dolphins swimming by, right from our deck, to the explosion of waves crashing on the rocks and up the sea wall, we have been in awe.The kitchen was amazingly organized and complete with everything we needed- and more.The bedrooms, living snd dining area, all well done. Plenty of towels- and lots of extas.And the pool was sparkling clean and a comfortable temperature. We hope to come back here again.

planned this trip for my 81-year-old mother, who had always dreamed of seeing the turtles one last time. I found this property, and it couldn't have been more perfect—especially with elevator access, which made things much easier for her. We spent hours on the patio, enjoying the sound of waves crashing against the lava rocks and watching the turtles right from where we sat. It was a truly special and memorable experience.

Great location on top of the ocean and turtles. Nice relaxing pool and easy access to Poipu Beach. AC was great addition after a day in the sun and surf. Well appointed kitchen and gas grill right outside made it easy to cook our own dinners. In-unit laundry also made our packing list very small.

We had a wonderful stay in Kauai! The condo is as described and was very clean throughout with the exception of mildew on the shower curtain and a mildew smell upon arrival. Cynthia said after we left this would be addressed. She stated it is due to people running the AC all the time and not on the dry mode. I do not believe we received any information regarding running the AC in dry mode. Otherwise, very pleasant stay.

Gorgeous views - saw turtles, spinner dolphins and even a whale from balcony! Beautiful 360 views and privacy. Lovely welcome bowl of coffee and cookies and hand cart with 5 Tommy B chairs, 3 umbrellas, biggie boards and even snorkels! Also lots of clean towels, shampoo, body wash and laundry supplies. Only thing I would suggest are more AC units - def one in smaller room- and I wish the pool (which is deep and huge) stayed open later than sundown. We would absolutely stay here again!

Phenomenal location and sweeping views. We saw turtles, whales and dolphins from the beautiful lanai. Comfortable bed, clean and well appointed. Lots to do! Walking distance to restaurants. Short drive to local beaches to see the turtles rest. Nothing like returning from the beach to more ocean views! Book your stay here!

My husband, sister and I stayed here for 8 of our 14 nights in Kauai. The condo was as described and met our needs. Our favorite part was the awesome views while sitting on our balcony. Loved watching the sea turtles and crashing waves into the lava rocks in front of us. Also, a plus is the short walk to PoiPu Beach. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family had a wonderful time in Poipu. We were allowed to drop our things off early, which was super helpful in that we had food that needed to be in a fridge. The location was walkable to many things and the view was incredible! We saw whales and sea turtles from our balcony!! The pool was nice and warm. The kitchen was clean and had all that we needed. I would definitely stay here again!

loved this place for quiet and proximity to beach. I would suggest a little loving care is needed. The ice machine was broken, the lock on the door didnt lock, but a handyman came and fixed it, very nice guy. Also the screen door downstairs needed replacing. I would love to have more plastic food containers for storage and plastic cups for patio use, also need updating to beach chairs, umbrella and cooler for the beach. these arent a huge deal breaker, would just make for a perfect stay. we plan on returning next year and would love to stay again. we liked the entire set up of the condominium complex. thanks for a great vacation. maholo cynthia

This second story unit is right on top of the bluff just a two minute walk east of Poipu Beach. The waves come in non stop at this location and provide a breathtaking view as they smash against the rocks and splash up into the air. You can see Poipu Beach, several other beaches and the Spouting Horn from the deck as well as stunning Kauai sunsets. The beds were comfortable and the AC units worked perfectly. The insulation is great and we never heard any noise from adjacent units. We were very happy with this unit other than the non functioning screen door from the living room to the deck.

Definitely recommend. The unit was clean and just as described. The manager was very communicative prior and during the stay. The unit even included multiple beach chairs, boogie boards, towels and a hand cart to haul your gear to the beach! Although the (included) parking spaces are small, it much better than parking with the masses at the beach.

My husband & I have stayed at many VRBOs across the country. Melodee’s place was exactly as described. It’s so nice to have an owner that will answer emails & questions immediately! As everyone has said, the views are amazing. Watching the turtles up close and the whales in the distance was a fantastic way to spend free time. (Melodee even has binoculars for you to use)Another added bonus was all of the beach gear she provided. Chairs, umbrella, beach towels & a cooler with ice packs made beach going so much easier. The furniture could use some updating, but everything else was perfect!

This was our 3rd time staying at this condo. We love the location, the resort, the pool. The neighborhood is very walkable. The view is so beautiful. You can’t get any closer to the ocean. We enjoyed watching the whales, sea turtles and beautiful sunsets. The management is very personable and accessible. Hope to be back soon.

We were looking for a place on the ocean, with a private pool, upper level lanai, sunset views, near a beach and only 2 BR. This unit exceeded our expectations. We were happy to see the wagon with all the beach supplies in the extra bedroom closet. Once we saw our first whale from the lanai, I was regretting not bringing along my own binoculars. Then I found a pair on a shelf under the TV. Parker has thought about everything one might need to enjoy the condo. The ocean waves made our nights so relaxing and peaceful. The vibrant shades of blue took our breath away. Incredibly beautiful sunsets. Tight parking spaces but I was able to back our rental sedan next to the lava wall to the left of the registration office, leaving enough room to avoid any car door dings.I would definitely stay in this unit again if we are lucky enough to have a future visit.A shout out to the young man in charge of taking care of the pool. He is doing a fine job.

Nice, roomy property in a beautiful location. Comfortable living spaces. Kitchen fairly well stocked. Extra large patio area was a great bonus...being on the end made property feel very private.Poipu shores is in a great location, walkable to beaches and close to most places in Poipu. Complex is a little dated, parking is tight and a bit limited. Pool is nice but cold as heater was broken when we visited. People with disabilities may have a difficult time here given the access from parking lot. But overall I'd highly recommend this property and this unit in particular.

It doesn’t get any closer to the ocean. Roaring surf, abundant sea life, beautiful sunsets and ready access to beaches. The unit is small, well-appointed and very clean. The kitchen is well stocked with the necessary tools to cook a meal. A washer and dryer made our stay and our return home much easier. We booked another week for next year. ‘Nut said!
