Regency at Poipu Kai, Kauai

Regency is part of the sprawling Poipu Kai Resort. Poipu Kai Resort is an amalgamation of different buildings stretched out across 70 acres. The different complexes within Poipu Kai all look different (built at different times), and don't share pool access, but each have their own pool/s and have access to the 8 court tennis facility (for a small fee).

Regency actually consists of 3 different sections - Regency I, Regency II and Regency Villas. Each section was built at different times, with Regency Villas being the newest section. The below aerial photos show the different sections of Regency. Vacationers choose Regency because of the spacious units and excellent location. In addition, Regency 2 (building numbers 6-9) and Regency Villas are one of the few Poipu condos to offer central air conditioning. It's about a 6 minute walk through pleasant resort grounds to Brennecke Beach.

Be sure to also take a look at our separate Villas at Poipu Kai page. Built by the same developer and neighboring Regency Villas, they're a great option for those seeking large luxury accommodations.

What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Travelers love the Regency at Poipu Kai area for its location and laid‑back, family‑friendly vibe. Most condos are a 5–15 minute stroll along the landscaped greenbelt to Poipu, Brennecke’s, and Shipwreck beaches—great for sunrise/sunset walks and spotting turtles and monk seals. Units are spacious and well suited to families and groups, often with multiple bedrooms/baths, full kitchens, in‑suite laundry, and lanais. Grounds are tropical and tidy, there are several small pools and hot tubs, and some listings include access to the Poipu Beach Athletic Club. Hosts and managers are generally responsive, with easy check‑in and lots of thoughtful extras like beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel gear, and even wagons.

Inside, quality varies by individually owned unit, but many guests find condos clean, comfortable, and well stocked for cooking and beach days. Not every condo has air‑conditioning: some offer central AC, some have bedroom or portable units, and others rely on fans and trade winds—lofts can run warmer. Open loft bedrooms are common and can be bright/noisy, so light sleepers may prefer enclosed rooms. Ground‑floor units feel convenient but can hear upstairs footsteps; a few road‑facing units note daytime traffic. Ocean views are rare, but most enjoy shaded lanais and the proximity to pools and paths.

Recurring cautions are practical rather than deal‑breakers: clarify AC, bedroom/loft layouts, and which pools or Athletic Club you can access; expect stairs in many second‑floor walk‑ups and narrow assigned parking with strict pass rules (no back‑in parking, towel/lanai rules). Across a large complex some condos show their age or have occasional maintenance hiccups (appliances, blinds, older furnishings), and pool/key access can be confusing—most issues are resolved quickly when reported. Overall, guests rate Regency at Poipu Kai as an excellent, great‑value base on the sunny south shore, especially for families who want space, easy beach access, and resort‑style amenities without resort crowds.

Recent Regency at Poipu Kai Reviews


We had the absolute best stay at this home! The condo was clean and spacious super close to so many beautiful attractions! We loved to spend our mornings out on the lanai sipping our coffee reading a book before a short walk/drive down to the water! Having this home with AC, a full kitchen, and washer and dryer made us feel like we were in a home away from home. Highly recommend staying at this condo :)

The place was great and we really enjoyed our stay. The only downside was some noise from the upstairs unit at night. A gentle reminder to upstairs guests about noise levels could help improve the experience.

Absolutely AMAZING Poipu condo!!The host was one of the best hosts we have had during our many stays on the islands. We never ran out of toliet paper or paper towels during our 12 day stay and we were a party of 5!! The beds and furniture were super comfy and the kitchen had all the tools needed to cook awesome meals. There was even a rice cooker!! The condo itself is in the best location. The bedroom lanais are super private, and there is a closet with everything you need for a beach day. Which btw, you can get to both Poipu and Shipwreck with just a short stroll down the path. Oh and the Murphy bed was insanely comfortable!! In fact all the beds were. If you see availability for your vacation dates, dont hesitate!! Mahalo from us Alaskans!!

Easy contact-free check-in especially for my late arrival. The area was as described and perfect for a few nights stay. All the essential kitchen items needed to keep food cooled and warmed with a toaster oven and a coffee pot. The air conditioner and huge ceiling fan was a great! The only thing I saw that was not ideal was there were 2 hairs in the shower the 1st night I went to shower, otherwise everything else was perfectly clean. The bathroom area was very nice. There was plenty of room in the unit! It also came with everything you might need for a day at the beach! It was a lovely stay and I would stay there again anytime.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was great and well maintained. We loved all the pools and could walk to the many beaches and some restaurants. The views were spectacular while walking along the path that goes through out the condo village. Kalapaki Joe's was our favorite spot for good prices for Happy Hour and they have the best chicken wings I've ever had. We will definitely be back to that area but would not rent the specific condo we were in. It was advertised as having a patio that we could eat meals on. That table on the patio was very small and only had one chair and a bench seat. Their were up to six of us staying in the condo and that was not enough seats for us to eat a meal together. The pictures of the patio for that condo were not accurate. The washing machine had mold on the inside of it. Also the floors in the condo were filthy. I wore white socks and they were black from the dirty floors. I washed the floors myself just to grt them clean. Other than that, we had a great time.

This was perfect for our stay! We had 5 adults aged 21 to 73. The location was perfect to get to the beach and everything was comfortable for those wishing to lounge on the lanai. We really appreciated the use of beach equipment! Would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises.

We had an amazing stay and couldn’t be happier with our experience. The host’s communication was excellent from start to finish, making everything easy and stress-free. The location was perfect, with convenient walking paths to the beach and nearby trails, which made exploring the area a breeze. Having the pool and BBQ right outside the door was an added bonus and made relaxing and enjoying meals so convenient. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located getaway!

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: We just returned from a wonderful 18-night stay in Kauai, and I cannot recommend this condo enough for families. We traveled as a group of six, and the layout was perfect. Having three bathrooms was a huge plus for a group our size! The upstairs area offers great privacy with its own room, bathroom, and loft.The standout feature for us was the kitchen. We cooked all our meals at home, and this was the first vacation rental we’ve found that actually had everything we needed. From quality pots, pans, and appliances to a coffee grinder and tools for baking and making smoothies, it was incredibly well-equipped.Some furniture was a bit unstable, but that did not make our stay less enjoyable. We submitted a checklist to the manager with some items that could be improved; hopefully, they'll make improvements going forward. The location is fantastic. It is a quiet building, set far away from loud bars, but you have access to two pools right next to the unit. It is an easy 5-minute walk to Brennecke's Beach (great waves for boogie boarding!) and right next to Brennecke's Beach is Poipu Beach for snorkeling. We saw plenty of turtles and a couople of monk seals there, so definitely bring your snorkeling gear.The grounds are clean and well-maintained with beautiful walking paths. It’s also very convenient for supplies - about a 25-minute drive to Costco, Walmart, and a 24-hour Safeway (though plan for 45 mins if it's rush hour). It was also an easy, beautiful drive to Waimea Canyon from here.The condo was clean and stocked with essentials to get us started. We would love to stay here again and strongly recommend this condo for family stays!

Beautiful property… very clean, beds are comfortable and AC works great. Couldn’t ask for a better location … short walk to both Poipu and Shipwreck beach, gated pool with hot tub on property. Hans and Vicki were great to us! Really helped us out dealing with flight delays on the way home. Best vacation I’ve ever had!

The condo was as described, clean, and convenient to all things in Poipu. Decently stocked and appointed. Biggest issue was noisy neighbors. Upstairs had loud kids that ran up and down the stairs and through the unit a lot. Next door seemed to have a family that lived there, or a very long term rental. They had young kids who were quite noisy, which is all well and good but the acoustics between units was poor.

The host was very helpful. I liked the way the condo was stocked with everything you need. One thing I would say is that I would like to have beach items available. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you

The space was ideal for our family. An abundant supply of beach gear including beach chairs and beach towels made it easy to enjoy our adventure. The kitchen was fairly well stocked and we appreciated having coffee filters (although we could have used a couple more coffee cups). Beds were comfortable and the table was perfect for games and dinners.

We stayed in Joel's condo for 30 days, and we couldn't have made a better choice. The information he provided was so appreciated, and his unit was so well stocked. We had relatives come during our stay and there was room for everyone. The air conditioning worked well, the pool/hot tub/barbeque area were right outside our door, and the concrete paths in the area were great for getting to Poipu or Shipwreck beaches. We might just have to come back sometime.

The house was exceptionally clean, it was very well stocked with all of the amenities that we needed including extra clean sheets and towels, cleaning supplies, everything we needed to cook meals in the evening, beach, umbrella, boogie boards, cooler, wagon for the beach. It was reasonable walking distance from two great beaches. We visited a few other beaches on the island while we were here, but found ourselves drawn to the beaches right by this property. They were accommodating with our request requests and replied very quickly. Check-in was easy and the list of things to do when we left was not difficult at all.

This place is amazing! Shipwreck Beach is 5 min away, Poipu Beach is 5 min away. The condo is beautiful and they had so much stuff for us to use! Find, snorkeling gear, body boards, golf clubs, big coolers and small, beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. I was blown away by how well equipped they were. The beds we comfortable and the bathrooms beautiful. I have nothing negative to say. This place was exactly what my family of 5 needed!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was perfect for our party of four. The kitchen appliances worked perfectly as did the AC and washer and dryer. The unit was well appointed and maintained. Very comfortable and clean. The location was ideal. Adjacent to the pool which my granddaughter enjoyed and a comfortable walk to the beach. The condo is far away from congested areas but had easy access to area attractions and restaurants plus the main highway. Excellent support from the manager to deal with the couple of issues that arose. We would stay here again if availability coincided with our next visit.

We were overwhelmed with the size and spaciousness of this beautiful condo. Our stay was amazing and the walk to Popui Beach was only about 7 minutes and so tranquil. We went swimming every night and watched the turtles beach themselves every night. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was the most stocked I have ever been at. The washer and dryer and normal size so huge! The decor was Kauai and beach themed and perfect. I felt so at home it was hard to leave. We will be back to this unit!

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was huge, the kitchen and living area were well equipped and the bedrooms large. It was also very clean. The complex was well maintained and we used the BBQ area by the pool. The staff looking after the gardens etc were really friendly too. The proximity to the beach via the pathway was great as well. We 100% recommend this condo and Coldwell Banker's communication, everything was easy and communication fantastic. Thanks!

Had a great stay here. Everything was clean, kitchen large, well-stocked, and furniture was comfortable. (We didn't use the pull-out sofa, but nice to have that.) Remember there is no a/c, there were lots of fans, which was helpful. The 3rd bedroom is a loft, with 1 1/2 of the walls only half-walls, open to below (not totally apparent on the photos), so if privacy or containing noise is a need, keep that in mind. We needed pack and plays and high chairs and the host had them waiting for us--thank you! We really appreciated the high quality beach chairs. The beach is only a half mile walk, but with the little ones, we ended up driving for the most part. Note there is only one official parking space for the unit, so additional cars need to get a guest pass and park a little further (not very far.) Check in and check out were simple. Would recommend this for a stay in the Poipu area!

The condo was very spacious & clean and well stocked with almost anything you could ever need: shampoo & conditioner, body wash, blow dryers. laundry & dish soap, pool & beach toys, etc. It was a short walk to the beach along a walkway landscaped with beautiful flowering trees and plants. We would be happy to stay there again!
