The property is very quiet and a good place to stay. We enjoyed the beach, the athletic club, hiking and snorkeling within walking distance of the home. Kalapaki Joe's is highly recommended for lunch and supper. The feral chickens are delightful. The common are was great for watching a movie in the evening.

Everything was top notch, clean, modern and worked well. Cute place and two large private rooms were perfect for two single people traveling together for work. The only glitch was on checkin - the code did not work and because it was so late we could not get in touch with the host. We got VRBO involved, and they had an alternate contact. The issue was relived within about 45 mins - we were sent a new code and got in to the unit. II was quite impressed with the responsiveness of VRBO!

We had a good stay. The Beach is more like a 5-7 minute walk vs. 2 minutes. The home was clean and all appliances in good working order. The noise from the main road, roosters crowing at 4:00 am and next door neighbors with their boom box music for the first few days was annoying. We were asked if we would set out the garbage can on the street the first day we checked in and on the morning of check out, asked if we would put the sheets and pillow cases in the washer before we left. These were minor requests, not mandatory and we had no problem with doing them...it's just all these items mentioned seemed like the price was too high. We were looking for something more peaceful and quiet.

This is a great spot. We had two couples and two toddlers and it worked well. Space isn’t super friendly for toddlers but it was ok. It’s a short walk to the beach so we rented a beach wagon and that was super helpful with the little kiddos.The house has good AC units and comfy beds and an outdoor shower around the back of the houseGPS kind of leads you to the wrong driveway so you just gotta drive up the street a little bit and enter from the little cul de sac.Definitely would stay here again!

The location was excellent, the home was a nice size and it was a bonus having a washer and dryer. However, it was outdated. Most of the decor, furnishings and finishes in the bathroom were old. The kitchen was a nice size but the dishwasher had food at the bottom .There was a hanging insect catcher which was filled with small and larger size bugs. It was there when we arrived and it grossed me out to eat at the table because it hung within view. I would have appreciated if they could have replaced it with a new one. So it would not have been overfilled. The air conditioning unit in the living room was leaking Soo much water onto the floor when it was in use, that we had to use several towels to clean it up. My husband reported the leak to the contact and he repeatedly said that he would have someone fix it but no-one came. It was not fixed. We asked again about fixing it and the person ignored our questions and concerns but still reminded us to take out the trash. It was really strange. We realized that he was not going to do anything about it so we didn’t bother to communicate all the other issues we had. He did allow for a late checkout which we appreciated because we had a red eye flight. We told him we also own a short term rental and would have preferred speaking with him on the phone to address our concerns but he didn’t seem to care. The experience in Kauai was amazing but the accommodations were lacking in so many ways for the price we paid.

Great little house, close to beach

Great location, close to beach and shops. Access to athletic club was really nice. The trees around the home make it feel secluded. It was really nice having beach chairs, coolers, umbrella, boogie boards accessible too. Host was responsive, great little place!

Great Setup for a Beach Vacation

We had a great stay. The house is very close to Poipu beach, and they provided all of the beach accessories we needed. The house had the basics and stayed cool in the evenings - we didn't even need to turn on the AC. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect spot for our last minute stay

Due to a last-minute issue we had to book another place last minute. We booked Jake's place and could not have been happier. It is about 2 blocks from the beach. All the things needed in a kitchen to make breakfast. (That is all we made). We loved the layout. Very nice washer and dryer. Private parking was a big plus. We will definitely stay here again when our travels take us back to Kauai.

When we first arrived the key pad for the front door didn’t have the correct code. The fan didn’t work in one of the bathrooms and the fan in the other bathroom had about 1/8’’ of dust on all the blades. The grounds were in dire need of a Gardner. The bbq had so much gunk on the grates that it took a half hour to burn it off along with intense scraping. One night I awoke to sounds of water coming from the A/C, as if someone pouring water from a cup. In the morning the chair underneath the A/C was sopping wet along with some clean clothes I had on the chair. This is the third time we’ve stayed at this property, the first with new management. Other than the unkempt issues, Jake is great to work with and very helpful. The distance to the beach is great. The house was accommodating.

A completely adorable house in an idyllic, setting fully stocked with everything you would need and a very responsible host. It’s about a 10 to 15 minute walk to the beach and 2-3 minutes by car and then you have to find parking. The owner Jake is awesome and will help with info if he can, I know there’s anything that the house is missing and you have all the beach toys that you ever want as well as chairs and umbrella. Make bring your own propane for the grill but they have the bbq Supplies other than that. There is one television in the house in the living room and it works with the digital YouTube TV or Amazon prime etc.. backyard is super cute. We really enjoyed our time and will consider renting this two bedroom house again.

Did not use either airconditioning or laundry other than putting sheets in at stay's end as requested. Did use dishwasher which worked well. My adult son is in treatment for cancer and cleanliness is paramount. Some pots were dirty, which I cleaned. We did not use outside furniture as it was dirty and a couple of chairs were broken. No beach items used.This was not a problem for us, as cancer patients receiving treatments should not be in the sun. We loved the openness of the living area, the bedrooms and baths very clean. Access to the beach at sunset ideal - it is quiet and lovely - we'd love to come back.Dorothy Massey
