About Buzz Wisda
Aloha from Jim and Valorie Wisda. We recentlyt moved to Scottsdale, Arizona from Palos Verdes Estates, California where we raised a wonderful son and daughter. We have been coming to Poipu since 1970 and no matter how often we travel to other places or countries we visit like this photo taken on a Bangkok river boat, we always look forward to coming back to Poipu several times a year.
Buzz Wisda purchased this House in 1998
Why Buzz Wisda chose Poipu
We are used to nice things in our mainland home and that is how we built Maluhia ma ka Honua, to be our home on Kauai. We could have built it anywhere on the island, but for one or two week stays Poipu cannot be beat because it has the best weather possible. We also wanted to be near the action, walk a short distance to the beach and a couple of restaurants. This location has a nice little micro-climate because it is in the leeward side of a small hill.
What makes this House unique
Families love this house. There is something special about the design that induces families to spend a great deal of time "talking story" and getting to know each other better. Dinners seem to last longer as memories are made.

Great house in great location
We really enjoyed the home and the close proximity to Poipu beach. We were 3 adult couples and the house was very roomy and well appointed. Each bedroom was large and had it's own on-suite bathroom. Buzz was great to deal with and responded to questions and messages very quickly. I would highly recommend this home to others and would love to return at a future date.
Perfect location and well equipped home.
Quite neighborhood within seconds to the beach. The crashing waves will put you to sleep and the roosters will greet you in the morning. So much better than a resort environment if you’re looking to detach and relax on a beautiful island.
Excellent location, large beautiful home
This property was excellent! Very close to the beach. We were 4 adults and a 1 year old and had plenty of space. We would definitely stay here again!
Fantastic base to see Kauai
Renting this property made our holiday! The house is lovely and has absolutely everything you need. The (very) nearby beach is one of the best on the island for snorkelling, surfing and seeing turtles. Would highly recommend this property.
Perfect spot in Poipu
My family and I loved our vacation here! It was a short walk to Brenneke’s beach, and the house was well stocked. Mahalo!
