Beautiful location in Poipu!
Our daughter was getting married in Kauai and I immediately booked in Poipu as we have traveled to this island a few times and fell in love with this community! We had 8 adults and loved the location and the Hawaiian feel of this property. It had all the comforts of home and was well worth the value. I was a little concerned that there was no central AC but after that pacific breeze filled the whole home it was so much more wonderful than I could’ve imagined! The beaches were just a short walk away and loved the beauty of the community! I would book this property again!

Experienced Kauai Visitor
The property exceeded our expectations. We were at home in this spacious 4 bedroom house and the location was awesome. We love to cook and the large island in the kitchen made of easy food preparation for our large gang. We were missing one key to allow us to use the bathrooms at the community pool but the manager arranged to drop off the key within an hour of our request. We couldn't ask for more.

Wonderful Stay
We had a great week in Kauai staying at this lovely home. It had everything we needed, and the location is just right. It wasn't obvious from the listing that it's in a beautiful community. The path to the beaches is lovely. The snorkeling, hiking, sea turtles and seals on the beach, sightseeing, and relaxing were all wonderful.

Fantastic "family" house
My husband and I plus our two daughters, their husbands and one toddler grandson spent a week together in Poipu and this house helped make it a great experience. There was plenty of space for everyone with four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The kitchen was outfitted well enough so that we could make most of our meals together. It is a wonderful location close to beaches and stores. We saw turtles and seals the very first day and were able to snorkel around to find fish. The house helped us have a very relaxing vacation.

Great home away from home for our family of 8
Spacious, clean, comes with beach towels, chairs and umbrellas, bathrooms stocked with soap, shampoo and conditioner, full washer and dryer, open kitchen with island, large table for eating and game nights. Management/owner responsive to a few very minor issues. No AC, but we were here in January, so it was okay without AC. Not sure if we’d stay here in the hotter summer months. Overall a great place and location.

Gorgeous house
Property was beautiful, lots of room, very, very beautiful house. Beautiful patio and sundeck, furnished very nicely. No air-conditioning but fans helped. Dishwasher didn’t work, I don’t think the microwave did either, just needs a little updating with the appliances but other than that I would definitely recommend this place.

Excellent spot, Walk to the beach
This place was perfect for our group of 8 adults. Adequate parking, kitchen amenities, and beds made our stay quite comfortable. There is a trail that connects the house to the beaches. On our morning walks, our biggest decision was 'which way to turn', because both directions end up on gorgeous beaches. Host was responsive, but we barely needed it because the house already provided everything we needed. Will recommend for our next Poipu stay.

Instantly felt like home!
As we drove into the neighborhood, we were instantly in love! We had no idea it would feel like a friendly neighborhood street... on a cul de sac no less! The walking path to beaches (boogie boarding, wading, and snorkeling) was just outside the house, well-paved, and beautiful -perfect for the beach wagon full of chairs, boogie boards and sand toys provided at the house (!!). The house itself has just been renovated and you can certainly tell. The carpets felt plush and clean, everything looked newly painted and repaired save a few minor things (window screen downstairs and a fridge that needs an extra push to close). The beds were super comfortable, as were the couches and patio furniture. The layout worked so well for our families, keeping the children downstairs and the adults upstairs. We were worried about the lack of AC (which seems to be the standard on the island), but the house gets great cross-breeze (particularly in the upstairs bedrooms), and where there's not, plenty of fans are provided. The kitchen and living area are open and provide lots of space for corralling your stuff as you come indoors. The front porch is also a great place to drop sandy shoes, catch a breeze, or watch the rain from the safety of the covered seating. Fun creatures for the kids OUTSIDE like lizards and snails, but no creepy crawlers inside that we saw. Also, shockingly few chickens in the immediate area! We had the rest of the island to enjoy their company :) Definitely recommend!!

We had a great stay at this Poipu house. It was clean, comfortable and big enough to accommodate our family of 9. It's close to the beach and restaurants. The only downside, there is no AC and it got a bit hot trying to get ready for a wedding during mid-day. There were fans provided in each room.

Great house near south shore
Really enjoyed our stay at this house! Spacious inside. Worked well for our intergenerational family gathering. Walk-in shower and full bedroom on main level. Two bedrooms upstairs, each with its own bathroom. Great usable outdoor spaces. Convenient location; three beaches less than a mile away with walking paths (beach gear and toys at the property were a big plus!) Community pool less than 0.5 miles away. Kristen and Jeremy were very responsive to our requests for a cot and additional floor fan. Would stay again on a future trip.

Perfect for family holiday
We had a lovely stay in this house for our large family holiday (grandparents and 2 families with small kids). This house is perfect for families with kids. Lots of space to spread out on a quiet cul de sac. The house comes well equipped including a high chair and lots of accessories for beach outings. The kitchen has more than sufficient items for making meals. The pool is lovely, the walking trail is handy and takes you right to the best beach for littles with sea turtles right there! The property owners were vwry easy to work with. I want to give 5 stars and would be happy to update my rating if they addressed a few maintenence items that I passed along via email. The garbage can in the kitchen was broken and was a nuisance. Some of the slats on the upstairs outdoor patio railing are broken and it's a safety hazard especially for our littles. The other items are minor and easily fixed. The house does not have A/C however this was not an issue for us during our stay in Feb. With the windows open and fans on we slept pleasantly at night. It's warm but you are in Hawaii... I would not hesitate to stay here again with my family or recommend it to friends.

Great location, so so house
The house was in a lovely nieghborhoos where you could walk or take a short drive to beaches. The house was a good size for our party of seven adults. Beds seemed clean and had nice kitchen dishes. But otherwise the house was very dated and cleanliness, upkeep less than ideal. Living room was not thoroughly vacuumed (chips on rug), dining chair cushions were wet. A few dead bugs…. Paint was peeling on cabinets and wood work. . Property manager was responsive to complaints.

Great 5 Days in Kauai
This property met our basic needs and the location was excellent. Close to several great beaches, eating establishments, etc. There are a couple of things that we feel need to be addressed by management: The house and cabinets, etc. are in a state of disrepair. Paint is literally peeling from the cabinets in the kitchen, and there were existing stains on the carpet throughout the house. Also, renters beware that there is no A/C. Nights were pretty miserable, despite having the windows open and the fans blowing.
