Perfect stay

While the property could use a refresh with new decor and furniture, everything was very clean and as described in the listing/photos. Equipped with basic kitchen items but includes beach chairs and umbrellas. Having three bedrooms and four bathrooms was why we chose this property. The location and property was an added bonus.

We enjoyed our stay, but there are improvements the host could make. For the pros:-Beautiful view-Great location-Easy check-in-three bedrooms, three bathroomsCons:-Property was missing basic amenities, such as the rooms were missing lightbulbs, overhead lights not working, not all the tvs were working, and the clickers were missing batteries -Cleanliness - The overall cleanliness of the place was poor. The blankets are clearly not washed between guests as we noticed several issues with them and needed to do our own wash of all linens. The AC units have clearly not been cleaned for a long time and I think that may be contributing to them not always working well. -The door to the lanai does not close properly and so it was hard to maintain a temperature in the living room -The property could use updating and had many damaged sections of the walls-The loft bedroom does not have a door so it is important to note this for future guests. The loft room also does not have any hooks so there is no place to hang your towel.

Perfect location & rare find!

We loved our stay here :) close proximity to the airport and the beach is only a walk away! This was one of the few places we were able to find that had three separate bedrooms that could all accommodate adults comfortably without breaking the bank. So happy with our stay! :)

Christmas Vacation

Great condo with lots of room. Each room has its own bathroom which really helps when you have the whole family together. We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the balcony each evening. We videoed a whale as it passed by the condo on Christmas morning. We really enjoyed our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay in this amazing location! Walking distance to Poipu beach where the turtles come up on shore to rest every evening. We appreciated the place being well stocked on the basics. It was perfect for our family!

Amazing stay for 5

Overall, we loved the space. It was perfect for our group of friends, as each room had their own bathroom. The kitchen had everything we needed and the property manager left us a nice gift for our arrival. They provided beach gear, tennis rackets, so many things! I was surprised that a concierge reached out to us to coordinate any excursions. We took advantage of that. The VRBO posting says there are 4.5 bathrooms but the description says 3.5, which is the accurate number: 1 per bedroom and a half on the main floor. There were lots of tiny bugs that were after our food. We saw them swarm onto a dirty knife in the sink, so we stored any unsealed food in the fridge. My biggest issue was the stairs. I did not locate an elevator. I recommend mentioning this in the description.Summary: The customer service was fantastic. It was perfectly located and provided everything we needed. I don't fault them for the bugs or bathrooms incorrectly listed by VRBO, but a heads up on the amount of stairs would be appreciated.

Beautiful

The condo was comfortable and spacious. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was adequately stocked to cook a few simple meals. Loved that there were a few spices and condiments for us to use. Location is nice and easy to get to a few shopping and dining areas. Sunset views from the point just outside the condo are not to be missed! Corey was very responsive and informative. There are lots of stairs outside and inside the condo. Not a problem for us, but if you have any concerns about navigating stairs, ask before you book. We’d go back without hesitation.

My family absolutely loved this place! The views are spectacular, and we love the layout, each bedroom having its own bathroom is a real plus. And individual air conditioning in each room is a double plus. Nobody’s too hot, nobody’s too cold. The development is beautiful, very well kept, very clean grounds. The location was perfect for us.

Great location but no door on the top upstairs bedroom

This condo is in a great location - quiet neighborhood and close to shops/beaches. The property manager was very responsive and answered all questions quickly. We had a great time with everything except for the upstairs bathroom is super small and the bathroom door was not functional. It was also a surprise to find that the upstairs bedroom did not have a door itself.

Great Views and Lots of Space for 4 People

Great stay with 2 adult daughters. Everyone had their own space. The AC was great as it was hot. The balcony is nice but has direct sun exposure in the afternoons from the setting sun. Kitchen is well stocked including foil. No condiments except for salt and pepper. Lots of cleaning supplies. Loved being able to walk the cliff path to the Hyatt and the other direction to Poipu Beach.

Location, location, location

Overall, we were very pleased with our stay. Directions, condo information and communication with Corey was excellent. The location was ideal for everything with easy access to beautiful beaches, nice shopping, excellent restaurants, and connecting to other points of interest. In general the condo is as described. A quiet community, clean, comfy beds, stocked kitchen and we appreciated the few kitchen extras. There are a few details that could use some attention. As mentioned in previous reviews and as happened to us, the a/c on the main floor did not work adequately. We contacted Corey and he communicated that he would have an electrician come address the equipment malfunction. That did not happen. Fortunately, we were gone during the day pretty much every day. Having that repaired appropriately would go a long way with future customers. The only other major issue was we were unable to sit on the lanai at all. Website photos show the right shade is drawn and there are three tall plants blocking the fan unit on the deck. The fan is not only loud, but it blows a lot of hot air making it unbearable to sit at the table and enjoy the beautiful view, which is a shame, because it really is a lovely view, especially for the gorgeous sunsets.
