we enjoyed staying at this unit. It was clean and it have everything we needed all the communication with the host was great and fast reply . The view was amazing . We thought there maybe a problem with the construction but it was not an issue . Would it be better if there was not construction yes but it is not a reason not to stay here. Location is very good to all the beaches You can walk to all the beaches . The unit is quiet we could not hear any noise from other units . The door is tricky to open once You learn that it is just heavy and You need to push on it to open it there is no problem . Ac in the unit worked great. The price point for the view and the location is very good compared to other units in the area I would not hesitate to stay hear again.

The Makahuena never disappoints! Peaceful environment, super clean and accommodating rooms, and absolutely beautiful views! I stayed here for 10 days in 2019 and had the best time ever. When my friends and I decided to plan our next trip to Kauai in 2025, I suggested we come back to the Makahuena and I'm so glad we did. Can't wait to come back!

Liked: Check-in, communication
The host was helpful. And the condo was well stocked with necessary items. The condo was about a "C" rating - it is beginning to show its age and the whole unit needs to be refreshed - especially the woodwork. The shower curtain on the half-bath/laundry room in lieu of a broken pocket door was a non-starter for me. The sheets, while clean and serviceable are getting pretty thin.

Response from VrboOwner on 31 December 2025
Aloha Iral, Thank you for your feedback. We did hang a curtain “temporarily” in the common bath but the repair has been completed now and pocket door is working properly. We will take a closer look at linens, as we strive to keep all these areas in top notch condition for our guest. Mahalo nui loa

Large Beautiful Condo

This beautiful condo has a beautiful easterly view of the Pacific. It was wonderful to sit on the balcony with a cocktail and watch the ocean. The complex has a wonderful view and a popular place with benches to watch the sunset. It is conveniently located to all activities on the southern shore and about an hours drive to Waimea Canyon. Breathtaking!

Great location! Definitely recommend

This was a great condo with beautiful views. The area is being developed, so it's not clear how long the views will be nice, but the property is great and while a bit aged (older appliances) the beds were comfortable and the shower was very nice. It's not easy to find a reasonably priced property in Poipu, and this property fits the bill!

We stayed Dec 2023 for 5 nights and it was very nice. Clean, full kitchen, 3 bathrooms for 4 adults was a plus as was the washer and dryer. We didn’t have great weather to enjoy the balcony but liked having it just the same. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Great Spot!

This was a very nice condo and a perfect area. We were minutes away from our dinners at the Grand Hyatt and minutes away from our favorite beaches, including Poipu. It was a nice and clean spot, and we would definitely stay here again. The construction didn’t bother us, but we usually spent all day at the beach and the workers were gone by the time we would get back from dinner. Easy check in and we were happy.

Spacious & comfy condo near great beaches

We had a great stay here during our honeymoon! The condo was stocked with anything we would need in the kitchen & with items for the beach (chairs, towels, goggles) which was awesome.The check in and check out process was super easy. The only negative was that the view of the water from the deck was not as close as the listing pictures seemed, however it was still gorgeous and we would return!
