About this property

Live TOP Floor OceanFRONT. Relax & Sleep to Sounds of the Surf; AC or Tradewinds

Our fourth-floor, south shore condo is right ON the ocean so you have unobstructed views. You see "nothing but ocean" --and hear the sound of the surf-- as soon as you open your front door.

This attractive, comfortable condo --with all the makings of "home"-- boasts a king-size bed that our guests have raved about. Enjoy the ocean while sitting inside the condo or out on your lanai. Snorkel with turtles right in front of the condo. And during winter months, watch whales frolic in the ocean right in front of you -- from the privacy of your living room, dining room, or lanai.

Our Po'ipu condo is nicely furnished -- stocked with everything you'll need (YOU bring your clothing and food!)-- so you can get down to the business of relaxing in comfort upon arrival.

Come on in and make yourself at home! Most guests who stay in our Moon Glow Suite *do* return!

Beautiful Place!

This condo is a great option for anyone who wants to explore the South Shore of Kauai and also do activities such as boat tour of Napali Coast, explore Weimea Canyon. It has an amazing view - we saw sea turtles swimming in the waves - directly at the shore. Clean, well equipped (two bathrooms!), and in a quiet building. Moonlight at night is amazing. It's also close to restaurants and fabulous beaches. The owners were super nice and gave great instructions and tips. We would love to come back. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Koloa Dreams

Moon glow was the perfect start to another Kauai visit. To begin, the view is hard to turn away from. Enough said, easily accessed and in walking distance (or a very short drive) from beaches, shops, food trucks/restaurants, and markets. Well stocked kitchen to make your own ono grindz…poke your way! Plenty of gear for the beach, or chairs to watch the sunset at the Beach House next door with locals and travelers alike. Mahalo Denise for letting us share your home.

Nice view

This was a small unit but large enough for two people. The view is beautiful but the unit is a bit worn and needs some attention particularly the front door (it sticks) and the balcony screen door needs replacement or fixed .

Amazing view!

Loved the incredible view & sounds that we had when we weren’t out & about. Breakfast watching the sunrise & dinner watching the surfers & sunset, bonus. Walkable to nearby shops/restaurants; although we cooked & baked all meals except for ice cream & coffee at nearby places. Great location to drive to hikes & relax after. Would rtn again. Owner was available for any questions/issues with immediate responses.

Incredible view and location!

This condo has the most incredible views! We could watch turtles, fish, and surfers from this gorgeous top floor location. It felt like we were in a world to ourselves. And the stars at night are breathtaking! Right next door is Beach House Restaurant with the signature MonkeyPod Mai Tai (their sister restaurant - if you’ve been to Maui, you’ll know what I’m talking about), amazing food, and a view of the sunset. The condo itself could use some updating, but with that wall of windows, location, and views, it didn’t bother us in the least. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Location, location, location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at this lovely condo. It was super hard to leave the fabulous view when our vacation was over. We were centrally located on the island minutes from Spouting Horn and Poipu Beach with a great ocean view. In the evenings we sat on the lanai watching turtles and surfers until the sun went down. We also enjoyed the floor to ceiling windows in the living and dining rooms. The condo itself was clean, comfortable, and quiet with all of the amenities anyone could want. The entire condo complex is well-maintained and very clean (including the laundry rooms). We highly recommend this condo and will definitely stay there again on our next trip to Kauai.

Wonderful Condo

We just loved staying in Denise & Gordon's condo. We hadn't been to Kauai in about 10 years, so this was a perfect welcome back. The views are amazing & you can just walk to the beach & snorkeling. It's a great home base for touring the island. The condo is perfectly apportioned....everything you will possibly need and more. Denise & Gordon were very helpful with things to do on the island as well. Our only complaint, and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Denise, Gordon or the condo, is that the people on the ground floor below & to the right of us were smoking. It's seemed many times when Larry & I were out on the lanai eating breakfast or dinner, their smoke would come up to us. Sometimes it was coming in the condo. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! Thank you!

a very nice appartment with a beautiful view

The apartmentis in a 4 story building and looks out to the sea on the side of the reef and one can watch surfers a bit to the right and turtles enjoying the surf plus the sundown from the balcony or through the window of the living room/kitchen. The bedroom goes to the back corridor, so has no view, which was fine with us. The kitchen is well equipped and there are beach towels etc. One has a card for the parking.There was always a parking for us. Swimming is possible next to the building, if you are used to getting into the water with a certain surf, then also good snorkeling. You need a car to see the island, maybe in case of. drive to the calm beach/port 3 miles away (north) and go shopping. We found the apartment perfect as a base for the short stay we had. Unfortunately there were renovations going on right next to the flat, which made it impossible to use the flat in the main daytime on 2 days for us. We understand that this is not under control of the owners and that reparations has to be done sometimes.... Otherwise we can fully recommend the place.

Beautiful Location, Needs updating

We were super excited about staying near the ocean and this property didn't disappoint for that reason. Beautiful location. Outside property was well maintained. Denise was very easy to communicate with. Nice to have beach chairs, and accessories. We were just disappointed in the unit itself. It was very dated and definitely needs some upgrades. Carpet looked dirty, fixtures and furniture outdated, too cluttered, and an unusual shower in the bedroom. Maybe someone likes that? Just didn't feel like a vacation rental.

Surf lullaby

The view off the Lanai is mesmerizing as is the sound of the surf crashing against the reef. The unit was clean with everything that you would need. A little updating would have been aesthetically pleasing but not necessary. I would stay here again. Location is very good and quiet aesthetically nice in the bathrooms
