The place was clean, spacious and very comfortable. Close to the pool. Corner, with lots of cross wind. Was able to walk to beaches, about a 10 minute walk.

Spacious condo in a great location
Pros: Clean and spacious condo with two huge bathrooms. Easy walk to the beach along a well-maintained walkway. Comfortable beds. Beach towels and beach gear. Very nice pool right outside the door that was seldom used by anyone but us.
Cons: Wifi is so slow that I finally gave up trying to work on my laptop. Extremely frustrating.

Aloha Sharon,
Mahalo for your feedback, we apologize for teh fustration regarding the wifi, our tech test the speed and it's average 70 Megabits/second which is high speed, not sure why your laptop couldn't connect to it.Our maintenance staff is onsite from 8 am to 7 pm helping with any inconvenience.
We hope to provide you better service for your next stay.

We loved it here. Perfect location, easy parking, easy walk to Poipu Beach. Condo was a bit dated, but in a way that made it even more comfortable and homey. Beach chairs, snorkel gear, tennis equipment all provided, and access to the athletic club was a huge bonus. Never felt hot even though temps were above average. Only issue was it wasnt quite clear from listing that payments would be made through Suite Paradise's website rather than VRBO. SP's email had gone to junk mail and I was very confused on how to make my final payment when it was past due. A message through VRBO alerting to payment portal might help (though I'd book direct with SP in the future).

Mahalo nui loa for sharing your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the location, amenities, and comfort of your condo, it’s wonderful to know it felt like a home away from home. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the payment process and will use your suggestion to improve communication for future guests, ensuring greater clarity and transparency.
It would be our pleasure to welcome you back to Poʻipū anytime. Until then, a hui hou!
Nine days of great snorkeling turtle and monk seal viewing at Poipu Beach and surfing at Hanalei Bay. This property provided ample space for four adults and two kids. We did have two roll aways for the kids as the pullout couch was not comfortable. The property managers were excellent in answering all our questions quickly and addressing our needs. The only drawback is that this unit is located on a corner and vegetation does not hide the traffic on one side.
Thank you Patadise Suites staff!!
Our family loved our stay here. The condo was clean, spacious, easy access to walk to Brennekes beach, poipu beach, and shipwreck. The kids loved the pool, which they had to themselves our entire stay. It was ez parking, we used the grill (a little walk to get to), and we enjoyed eating breakfast on our patio. I hope we can return some day!

Mahalo nui loa for your wonderful review. We’re so happy to hear your family loved the stay and enjoyed the clean, spacious condo and the easy access to Brennecke’s, Poipu, and Shipwreck Beach.
It’s great that the kids had such a fun time at the pool and that you were able to enjoy the grill and relaxing breakfasts on the patio. Those are the moments that make a stay extra special.
We truly appreciate you choosing Suite Paradise.

Property showing signs of age. Kitchen lacking in basics - coffee filters for example. Somewhat noisy close to the road and impossible to take an afternoon nap with all the outside maintenance work. Watch out for the cockroaches. No air conditioning.
Nice location with walkable access to local attractions and restaurants.

Thank you for staying with us in sunny, Poipu. I appreciate your feedback and we will take it into consideration to make upgrades. We hope you return again to sunny, Poipu.
Large roomy condo with pool just steps away from front door. Condo is a little outdated but was clean and supplied with plenty of towels and linens. Great walking trails and close to restaurant’s and shops. Enjoyed our stay here!
The only issue we had was that the kitchen was a little understocked with basic needs for cooking. More pots serving bowls etc plus simple things like knives potato masher etc. the place was lovely. Beds comfortable unit clean. Great location by the pool. Thank you for a lovely stay

Had a great time in Poipu! The condo was very spacious and clean. The kitchen was nice and roomy allowing us to make meals and save money. Right by the pool which was a big plus for our teenage daughter. Great value for the location. Close to all the shops, restaurants and beaches. Loved hearing the birds in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

Great space and easy walk to Poipu beach
This condo is large, wonderful space for our family of 4 and so great to be able to walk to Poipu beach. It is an older condo unit and could use a little freshening up but everything you need is there. We did have a plumbing issue, cold water knob on the master bath shower didn't work upon our arrival but the management company, Suite Paradise had if fixed the same day and we never had another issue with it.
