Perfect for a couple

Very well appointed property - centrally located to many amenities in the Poipu area. The on-line descriptions are precise and we had no surprises. The house was essentially like new. Very quiet street, very quiet neighborhood.

Poipu beach estate

This home has everything you need. It is small, clean and modern. The winds kept the place cool if the windows were kept open. Nice to have a garage with two bikes to cruise around with. The area is very quiet with beautiful homes.

Cozy

Very clean, well updated, cozy place. Really enjoyed the outdoor shower to rinse off sand from the long beach days. This place has everything we needed and has a great home feeling. The beach chairs, umbrella and bikes were a bonus. The only downside is the furniture wasnt very comfortable to lounge around, but that didnt break my stay for me.

Perfect Poipu Getaway

The place was very clean and homey. We loved the bikes and beach gear in the garage. Outdoor shower was also a huge plus. Location is perfect. Close to the beach, shopping, and closer to Waimea than Lihue.

Cutest and Cleanest Place Ever

This was hands down the cleanest place we have stayed. Some of this may come from being a newer build, but they seemed to have amazing folk doing the cleaning and maintenance. There was zero signs of previous guests. Place very cute, neighborhood is great, friendly folk.

Quiet, Clean, and Cozy

Neighborhood is quiet, cottage is well maintained and modernized. No air conditioning, but if you keep the fans running and windows open while there it stays cool (even when it's up 90 degrees out!). It is a nice place for 1-2 people to stay around beaches and restaurants, but far enough away to keep things quiet and private!
