About this property

STUNNING OCEANFRONT * Poipu's Best View * New Air Conditioning throughout

Words cannot describe the incredible view from this penthouse condo. It's mesmerizing!! You'll hear the waves crash below you along the coastline and marvel at the Pacific Ocean stretching out as far as you can see. Turtles, spinner dolphins, and whales are often visiting as well! Best view in Poipu and some guests say it’s the best view in Kauai!! And now, we have air conditioning individually controlled in each room for additional comfort during warm days.

Inside, the colors of the sand, sea and sky fill this 3-bedroom 3-bath completely remodeled property. You can start your day with coffee on the lanai and enjoy the sunrise. The kitchen has beautiful new granite counter tops, white cheery cabinets along with its incredible oceanfront view! It is fully stocked with everything you need: from the all-stainless steel appliances including a convenient extra large gourmet toaster oven, icemaker, Keurig coffee maker with capsules, to the spices, and all the utensils and sharp knives you need, you will want for nothing! This is among the many advantages of choosing a property with owners that live here rather than from an impersonal corporate management company that may not even be based in Hawaii.

The two master suites have king size beds, and a third bedroom is configured with your choice of either a king or two twin beds - perfect for up to three couples or two families. The upstairs master offers a spa-like feel complete with a soaking tub. The downstairs master offers a quiet garden view with rich deep koa wood tones. There is also a separate media loft with surround sound and a large Sony 70" ultra high definition flat screen TV with internet connection, perfect for relaxing and watching a show or movie after a day of exploring the island. We not only offer free WiFi - you'll enjoy the fastest WiFi available on the island.

Perhaps the best feature is that there is nothing between you and the ocean except 10 yards of grass lawn. It's a secluded, romantic, awe-inspiring location. If you're looking for excitement, you can also visit the local resorts that are just a short trip away. You will love staying here!

Poipu and Brenneckes beaches are an easy ½ mile walk on one side, and Shipwrecks beach and the Grand Hyatt are a stunning, easy ½ mile oceanfront path walk on the other.

Please note this property is not wheelchair accessible or suitable for people with mobility issues. The cost of having the “best view in Poipu” along the coast from this top floor Penthouse located in a very quiet 15-unit boutique complex is that there are stairs. There is a pathway with fewer stairs coming down from the entrance to the parking structure around the small plunge pool area, but the one and a half flight of stairs leading up to the penthouse is unavoidable. This is easily doable for people without mobility issues, but not as convenient as a ground floor unit without the view.

For your safety we provide Keyless and Contactless check-in and out and use Enhanced Cleaning protocols using disinfectants according to WHO & CDC guidelines. We always provide antibacterial hand soap at every sink.

**U.S. News & World Report listed Kauai a “Top 5 Best Beach Honeymoon Destination” noting the island’s beautiful parks, magnificent sunsets and excellent snorkeling.

**Kauai was recently recognized as the most romantic place to celebrate an anniversary by USA Today's 10 Best Awards.

** Easy walk to the Grand Hyatt if you have meetings there

We are excited to be able to share this spectacular penthouse, which has been completely remodeled!! Everything inside down to the stone flooring and windows is beautifully and elegantly redone. We look forward to hosting your 5 star vacation and you experiencing the breathtaking beauty of Kauai right from this oceanfront penthouse!

Review

Great property with wonderful views and good location. Kitchen was dated and well worn. The parking was very difficult some evenings and too many steps if you have heavy luggage. Beds and bathrooms were great as was the upstairs bedroom and layout. Overall very comfortable and we would stay there again. We are recommending it to our friends. Aloha and Mahalo!

Worth every penny for the location and view

We spent five nights in the condo in mid-March and were overjoyed with our choice of this rental. We spent hours out at the table on the balcony, we saw whales and turtles every morning with our coffee, incredible sunsets in the evening with a bottle of wine. I can't believe there is a more spectacular view on the island. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very comfortable and well-appointed, so very nice to have individual A/C controls and plenty of bath and beach towels. The kitchen was terrific, filled with every utensil or dish we needed (a kettle, vegetable peelers, both Keurig and drip-coffeemaker, etc.). Poipu/Koala was the perfect spot on the island to stay, accessible to everything, lovely dining and beaches, especially in winter. And the cherry on top was the terrific communication with the owners, lots of details and outreach which made our stay easy. If we come back to Kauai, we will definitely book another stay here. Don't hesitate, you will be really happy here.

Vacation in paradise

This was the most beautiful vacation home I have ever seen. I could have spent the entire week just staring out the window: we saw breaching humpback whales, dolphins, sea turtles, kayakers, swimmers, and glorious sunsets. Everything you might need is provided. Poipu Beach and Brenneckes Beach are easy walking distance, where you can use the masks and snorkels, fins, boogie boards, and beach chairs and umbrellas. The kitchen is well-equipped, the rooms beautiful, the vibe is comfortable, and the owners responsive. 10 out of 10!

Absolutely stunning views

The description of this place did not disappoint in real life! The sound of the waves crashing against the rocks right below us, the ocean stretching out in front of massive living room windows, and the Lanai were absolutely stunning. The owner was quick to respond when we had an issue trying to get in upon arrival and a couple days later when we continued to have a problem getting in. It didn't like the last 4 digits of my phone number. Once we all got in the same page everything great. The kitchen was well stocked. There were a few things that needed attention but nothing that would affect the quality of our stay. When you have a place Oceanside, especially as close as this place is, there are bound to be issues. Maintenance is nonstop from the salt water. I would rent this place every trip if my family wants to come back to Kauai. Having the plunge pool so close was a real benefit. The Popui Athletic Club really didn't thrill the Grandkids. If they were younger than teenagers,it would have been perfect. Thank you for having such a wonderful place to share! Plenty of room for 2 teenagers and three adults!

Wow! Incredible property and location!

This is an amazing way to experience Kauai. The view, crashing waves and turtle activity made the deck a wonderful place to spend time! We all enjoyed having our morning coffee and evening meals on the deck. The location is ideal being walking distance to many beach options and we loved being able to easily access so many beautiful sites and activities. The lay-out of the condo is terrific with everyone having great bedroom spaces as well as good places to hangout together. Thank you to the owners for such a positive experience!

About the host

Hosted by Doug & Candy

Host profile image
My wife and I were originally from the mainland and are now lucky enough to live in Kauai full time. Even before moving here, we've always loved Kauai and have been frequent visitors since the early '80's. Like most people who choose to vacation here, we came to experience the incredible natural beauty and loved our time outside but hated returning to our hotel room that felt like every other city's hotel room. Our dream was to experience Kauai even while in our room without having to pay $$$$ for an oceanfront hotel suite! This is a place to stay that exemplifies Kauai! You will love staying here!!

Why they chose this property

Of all the condos we've stayed in and visited on the island, this one feels most like our dream vacation in Kauai. The view is what you come to Kauai for, and this one is exceptional! It's a dream for us and we are excited and happy to share it with you. It's a great place to make memories that will last a lifetime.

What makes this property unique

This completely renovated condo has best view in Poipu. The sights and sounds of the waves and surf below are mesmerizing!

Unlike renting a property from a corporate management company that may not even be headquartered in Hawaii, we live here in Kauai. We provide the upscale personal touches and amenities that the impersonal management companies cannot.

Your stay even includes access to the upscale Poipu Beach Athletic Club for you and your guests. Located a quick 5 min drive away, enjoy a beautiful resort pool with sand beach, waterslide and jacuzzi. Or get in a workout with their expansive indoor/outdoor gym with weight machines as well as free weights, aerobic equipment including bikes and treadmills, fitness classes and yoga. Play on one of their 4 USTA tennis courts, 3 pickleball courts and 2 basketball half-courts. Afterward, showers and locker rooms are also available for your use as well as a very nice bar and grill. Go to www.poipuclub.com to view their full list of amenities.
