Great condo for a family of four. Walk right out front to see whales, dolphins, turtles and Monk Seals. Great pool, unit had all the amenities needed to cook and eat for a week. Easy parking as well. Super quiet.

Mahalo for your review.
We’re so glad the condo was a great fit for your family and that you enjoyed the peaceful, relaxing atmosphere.
Seeing whales, dolphins, turtles, and monk seals right out front is truly special, and we’re happy you were able to experience that during your stay. It’s also great to hear you enjoyed the oceanfront pool.
We appreciate you staying with us and would be delighted to welcome you and your family back anytime.
We enjoyed our stay but ran into trouble when wanting to charge our electric rental car. The propriety managers are jerks and wouldn’t let me plug in the car even when I was in an emergency situation. It’s free to be nice and their actions were not very aloha.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay, but we are sorry you were disappointed regarding charging your rental vehicle. Nihi Kai Villas does not currently have the infrastructure or designated facilities to support electric vehicle charging, and for safety and electrical-load reasons, vehicles cannot be charged using outlets within the property. This was not a matter of our team being unwilling to assist. We provided directions to multiple nearby EV charging locations so that you could safely charge your vehicle. We always strive to assist our guests with aloha, but we must also respect the property's operating and safety requirements.
Wonderful property was well maintained and had everything in the unit you would need. Up to date bathrooms and appliances as well as AC throughout were great. Location was perfect near the ocean. Heated pool was great for relaxing. Owner was very responsive.
Unit #501 was a perfect fit for our family in Poipu. The unit was impeccably clean, well outfitted, and roomy. We appreciated the beach chairs, towels and coolers for the short walk to the beach. The Nihi Kai property was lovely and our family had fun at the pool. We'd absolutely rent here again!

Perfect Vacation Getaway
Our stay was wonderful and we can't wait to come back to your little corner of heaven. Our entire family agreed that it was the vacation of our lives, and the owner's couldn't have been more informative and responsive to our needs. The unit was in great shape and the location was perfect for us being just away from the beach foot traffic but a two minute walk to the beach for the sea turtle viewing, snorkeling, and boodie boarding. Can't wait to come back again

We agree....the location is hard to beat! An easy stroll to one of the best beaches in the US (or, maybe even the world!).
We work hard to keep the condo in tip top shape for our guests. We stay in it every year for several weeks (it's a hard job but someone has to do it!) so the kitchen is well-equipped and we tweak and tune to ensure all is well.
Everything was pretty great really. Everyone was friendly and helpful when needed.Nice and close to the beaches (where there's great snorkeling). Turtles and Monk seals lolling on the beach every day, as did we!Be aware the bedrooms and bathrooms are downstairs, so there's a bit of built-in cardio.Only suggestions would be to have a designated smoking area and a metal spatula for the BBQ grills.Mahalo for a great stay!Only

Mahalo for your review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the location and hospitality. The floor plan layout is noted in our description, and we appreciate your feedback. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Aloha!
Very clean, very up to date, everything in working order, well appointed, best of all very comfortable, and great location. Walked to Poipu every morning to check out the turtles and seals. We slept so well, the mattress and pillows more comfortable than our own at home. We highly recommend.

Thanks for your kind words Mary! So happy you enjoyed your stay!
The location was perfect. Easy walk to Brennecke and Poipu beaches. Easy access to highways. Construction caused absolutely no issues. Very well stocked kitchen. The only con would be the design of the unit with both bathrooms down a flight of stairs adjacent to bedrooms.

Jack, Thanks for taking the time to review your stay in our condo, much appreciated!
What a great location! This unit was just as described and a very quick walk to the beach where there was a monk seal on the sand and one next to us in the water. We enjoyed walking down to the beach at sunset and socializing with others. The garden view is lovely, but we also sat on the back covered porch for a change of scenery. Lots of space…I don’t think my husband and I used 25% of it. The owner was very responsive and helpful .

So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay Aimee! Mahalo from Maureen & Bruce
The condo is beautiful with nice extras (shampoo, conditioner, hand/body gel, paper products, beach chairs, umbrella, and especially the small cooler with ice packs ready in the freezer) Everything in the condo is great - beds, bathrooms (loved the nice showers), washer/dryer, patios (loved listening to the birds), nice kitchen and living room. The Nihi Kai Villas are surrounded by beautiful flowers and lush greenery. Nice pool and tennis courts. The location is great! Walking distance to Brennecke’s Beach and Poipu Beach. Close to Grand Hyatt Luau and shipwreck beach. This is the perfect condo to stay in while visiting the beautiful island of Kauai!

Great Stay in Nihi Kai #501
Everything about our stay was perfect! We have two children and the property and the location of Nihi Kai was ideal. Short walk to the pool and to the beaches. A number of nice beaches right near the property: Brennekes, Poipu, Poipu Point for long board and short board surfing. You have options for extremely calm baby beach, body boarding, body surfing, snorkeling, and more. We were extremely comfortable in the condo, slept great, and appreciated the trade winds blowing through the condo day and night. What a nice place!
We cooked almost all of our meals and appreciated that the kitchen is very well stocked with all the utensils, pots, pans, pyrex, and even foil and plastic baggies. It was a condo prepared for people who enjoy cooking.
Thank you, Maureen and Bruce

FANTASTIC, THE PERFECT CONDO!
PERFECT- our 4th Kauai trip, 1st stay Nihi Kai! Ideal location for beach activities (terrific snorkling), great proximity for shopping, resturants, hiking ("gotta do" the Sleeping Giant) & extended walks, & super area for watching BIG crashing waves & turtles- we were "Wallnuts" almost each eveing! This condo sits quietly in the complex, amidst lovely Botanical Gardens We were want for nothing- really! We had easy access & beautiful driving all over the island. We love Keoki's outdoor dining, & everyone has to get a Puka Dog! Having a COSTCO nearby is a real plus. This condo is a definite return destination for us- HUGE Mahalo, Maureen & Bruce!

Condo in Hawaii
The room was messy and dusty and there were only 2 wash clothes and 2 hand towels in the bathroom so we had to keep washing Also there we did not receive any instructions previous to arrival we did not know where to go. And the outdoor pool smelled awful like sewage waste hard to walk by let alone swim in it. But the island was beautiful as usual and everyone was very pleasant

Pam,
I am so very sorry you were disappointed with our condo. Housekeeping has been alerted to your comment. I assure you that is not the norm.
The arrival information was sent to you from our management firm Parrish Kauai on Sept. 24th. On your check-in date another was sent to let you know the condo was ready. They were both sent to your email so unsure what happened. As we notified guests, there is work being done on the treatment plant near the pool. On occasion there is an odor as we replace all of the equipment. Again, I am very sorry you were not pleased. We've always prided ourselves on the many great reviews and positive feedback. We clearly missed the mark and for that I apologize.
Comfortable & convenient, but taking luggage on stairs some effort for seniors. Both bathrooms downstairs. Towels & amenities nice, well furnished kitchen, nice pool area.
We loved being close to Poipu beach! Very nice and clean property. It felt like home. Host was great to deal with. I appreciated her prompt replies. My family and I would definitely stay there again!
We had an amazing time in Kauai. Loved the location of the condo right on beach, close to airport, close to attractions. The property was very nice, fully equipped with beach stuff. Excellent communication with property manager
