About this property

Poipu Oceanfront Penthouse AC, Elevator, WIFI, Stocked Kitchen, South Shore Surf

The stunning oceanfront Toyabrown Penthouse is located forty feet from the water, has a spacious oceanfront lanai (deck) overlooking four famous Poipu surf spots, with new split air-conditioning system, is meticulously cleaned, and is adjacent to two white sand beaches, the best snorkel spot on the island, and the Beach House, for Kauai’s finest oceanfront cocktails and dinner.

NEW: Split air conditioning system in living area and bedroom and bath suite

*beach chairs & beach towels*


We received these three emails from happy guests:

The beautiful penthouse was a wonderful experience - very relaxing. The ambiance was very special the minute we entered the suite. The furnishings, top of the line kitchen, the big screen TV, and the wonderful walk-in showers were just perfect. To be able to sit on the lanai in the afternoon with a glass of wine watching the surfers in the water and then spend early mornings drinking coffee and watching fishermen in their dories was a real treat. The Beach House next door was a pleasant surprise - excellent food, good cocktails and fabulous views - and is a must. We'll be back.

The penthouse was the most beautiful and perfect place we could have ever imagined spending our honeymoon. Seeing the sea turtles and whales from our lanai is a memory we will always have. This is the way a vacation in Hawaii is meant to be spent. Thank you so much for stocking our kitchen for our arrival, Lori. Terrific service.

We truly found paradise! The penthouse is the perfect place to enjoy the "perfect" holiday. From the sunrises to the sunsets, and watching the turtles swim by, and see whales in the distance. It was all breathtaking. We celebrated our 28th anniversary here and plan to spend many more here. It is paradise on earth.

It's fun to watch the surfers ride the waves and the huge green sea turtles play near the shore, while the outrigger canoe club members paddle by. Simply spectacular.

The Toyabrown Penthouse is located here in the Poipu area of Kauai, on top of a small, exclusive four-story residential building overlooking Kuhio Bay and breathtaking coastline views, and was remodeled by Jim Toyabrown. The penthouse is meticulously cleaned, and now has a beautiful oceanfront living, dining and gourmet kitchen area, a serene master suite featuring a Simmons Beautyrest firm queen mattress on a custom wood platform bed frame and fine linens, and the all-important second bathroom off the kitchen area. Custom furnishings, objets d’art, handcrafted shoji privacy doors, and a generous use of tasteful granite, marble, exotic woods and stone throughout: A true masterpiece.

The well planned lighting scheme and quiet ceiling fans are appreciated. HDTV with HD channels, telephone, and wireless internet are included. Also: On-site parking, elevators, 24-hour security.

NOTE: Self check in instructions will be sent via this messaging system 24 hours prior to arrival.

Check-in time is after 4pm. Check-out time is before 11 am. These times are firm.

Thank you.

Amazing oceanfront luxury!

What a fantastic place! Exceeded our expectations. Loved the sweeping ocean views - over clear oceans with turtles and surfers. The unit had very nice decor - felt like a well loved home more than a rental. The sunset views from the dining table were better than any restaurant in town!

Amazing views and location

We loved our stay! Wonderful location and decor and a view that was outstanding. This unit is definitely the best option in the building. The corner window view was a plus. It was great to watch the sunrise and sunset everyday. We also loved watching the surfers and sea turtles from our balcony. We would definitely return for future vacations. Only a few negatives:Uncomfortable couch Loud refrigerator 2nd bedroom bed was not made (Had to put on sheets)Unit was updated and nicely decorated but the building exterior was outdated and should be refurbished.

Amazing View, Beautiful Condo

This condo is located in Kuhio Shores right on the coastline, next to the Beach House Restaurant. It is on the top floor. We absolutely loved our stay and will return in the future. The condo unit is very quiet with mostly retired folks and the view from this unit is unmatched. We ate most of our dinners in as the views from this unit are better than any restaurant you will find. The unit was amazingly clean, AC and ceiling fans kept us cool, bed was comfortable and kitchen well stocked. There are 2 sand chairs and 2 beach towels provided. We watched the sunrise, sunsets, sea turtles and surfers from our lanai!Our ONLY complaint is the couch is quite uncomfortable. It's more like an outdoor sofa.

Beautiful condo and location!

My husband and I stayed in this amazing oceanfront unit for two weeks. Beautifully decorated and well-appointed. We saw sunrises, sunsets, whales breaching, sea turtles in the surf, surfers, and snorkelers. Right off of the lanai! There is a delicious restaurant right next door and a shopping area an easy 1/2 mile walk or drive away. Completely relaxing and comfortable.

Quality condo, fully appointed with nice furnishings and kitchen appliances. This property is pricey but it is very private and superior to hotel offerings in many regards that cost even more.

Spectacular Sunrise & Sunset

Prime location for sunrises and sunsets! Excellent smaller eateries and higher end restaurants locally. Nearby, shopping and beaches. Condo has all the modern amenities that you would want. It’s a two bedroom two bath, but only two can stay, which gives you a lot of room. We definitely recommend staying at this beautiful penthouse! 😉

Beautiful place to stay

I loved staying at this place. Everything is exactly what the description/ photo shows. Pros. The view and the cleanness Cons. The communication with the property owner is super slow, but everything went fine. The AC in the living room is not really cool. The one in bedroom is good. Beautiful place, great location, I would definitely come back!! Highly recommended!
