Best VRBO we’ve stayed at!

Condo was clean with lots of attention to detail. It was well stocked with all the consumables needed for our stay (like toilet paper, soap, toiletries), as well as a wagon & beach going supplies. Property manager gave lots of local insight and suggestions ahead of stay. During our stay, they were responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

January stay

This is the second time we stayed at this property. It is always wonderful to stay so close to the ocean. We just walk outside to watch the sunset. The kitchen is well stocked. The beds are comfortable. The owners are very accommodating.

Family Vacation

We stayed here for a family get away. The condo was clean and conveniently located beaches, shopping, and restaurants in Poipu. The condo was equipped with boogie boards, and beach chairs which made relaxing at the beach effortless. We enjoyed getting up early and watching the sunrise on our walk to the rocks. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful place to stay.

Perfect home away from home

Perfect spot for our family, my husband and our 3 children (9, 10, & 12) and myself. Very clean, and easy check in. Beautiful location! We enjoyed time on the porch, along with sunsets in the back of the property. Easy to get to everything. We really appreciated all the beach gear we did not have to rent! Thank you for making our stay so special!

Popiu

The condo was exceptionally clean. The kitchen was well equipped. The owner responded to emails and requests quickly. Although the condo had only partial ocean view; it was the next building from the ocean. It was walkable to Popui beach. We would stay there again.

Kauai stay

The unit itself was very spacious and has everything we needed. It was very close to the ocean, although this part was not one where anyone could swim due to the rocks and force of the waves, but it was an absolutely breathtaking view. Our only recommendation is that the AC vents were a bit dusty and should be cleaned more thoroughly. But all in all, it is a great unit and very close to Poipu beach, where we saw many sea turtles. I would definitely consider satiating here again.

Beautiful property with amazing views

Owners were great with communication and numerous suggestions. They outlined restaurants, beaches, hiking trails, golf courses etc, etc. The condo was very clean, roomy and had a kitchen with every gadget you could posibly need. Beach towels, chairs and an umbrella were provided.We loved the sunsets and the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks.The only downside (which is out of the owners control) is the people who stay in condo above you. If you like to sleep in, it will not happen when families are up at 6:30 running all over.Despite this, we still would rate this a 5 star property.

A Cozy Feel Like Home Destination

Upon arrival inside the property looked nice. The theme, colors fit perfectly to the area and our vacation. There were some minor property repairs needed, like the entrance screen door and patio rail, but it looked like they were pending repairs. The pillows and bed sheets were stained and did not have a fresh clean smell, not sure when was the last wash they received specially the pillows/pillow covers. They had a lot of equipment and toys available as there was no note not to touch and were in open closet space. We did not get to use them but can see how a family would really enjoy the room and amenities available inside the rental, pool or nearby beaches. They have video and music streaming, the tv and sound are great to enjoy an evening. The fridge and kitchen are great, we did not get to use it, but this is a great stay for a weeklong trip as it has everything, and most stores are within 30 minute drive.

Relaxing quiet stay on the south side

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is conveniently located on the south side of the island in an area of residential houses and condos. It's a quiet neighborhood. The unit is nicely decorated, clean, and well equipped for cooking at "home" during vacation. Beds and couch were comfortable, with cool A/C when needed (not often), and plenty of fans. Lots of beach gear and towels available for use. Laundry in unit with soap for a few loads while there. We watched numerous whales and turtles from the benches overlooking the ocean right at the edger of the condo complex, and one of the best sunsets on the island can be had just sitting on those rocky cliff edges over the ocean. Nice access to walking paths all the way to Shipwreck beach, or easy to walk side streets down to Poipu beach for some protected swimming, watching the turtles come in to rest at night, or grab a Puka dog and shave ice.Good food trucks and a few restaurants in Koloa a few minutes up the road, but plan ahead as they have very limited hours of service. Otherwise, plan to pick up groceries in Lihue as there is little else available in the immediate area. The condo has a full size fridge, stove, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, with lots of dishes and cookware... so you can stock up on meal items in town.The caretaker was considerate and even contacted us after a stay regarding a piece of jewelry we forgot.We would not hesitate to book this condo again.

Perfect vacation

We had a wonderful stay at the Makahuena. Poipu beach was walkable, although we usually drove since we had kids and a lot of gear. Plenty of parking. The unit was perfect for the 5 of us. The pool was great for the kids. I was sad to find out the jacuzzi was out of commission as that was part of my search criteria. I was told the heater was broken and it will likely not get fixed for months. The views of sunrise were incredible. I saw dolphins and sea turtles from the property. The kitchen was well stocked. Overall, great experience and would love to come back!

Perfect place for vacation in Kauai

My family and I were blessed to be able to stay at this condo for a few weeks. Simply put, this place is amazing!! The condo has a very functional layout with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We had up to 6 people staying here and it never felt crowded at all. All the furniture was newer and comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, and the lanai was large with a phenomenal view. The condo location is great because you can walk a few steps to overlook the ocean, including a blow hole. A 5-10 minute walk puts you right onto Poipu beach, which was so fun to see the turtles coming on shore around 7 pm. Also, the property managers are amazing at offering any assistance once you arrive. We will definitely be looking to rent this unit again. Thank you so much to the owners and property managers!!
