Nice views/ close to great family beach

Nice views and located very close to Poipu Beach, which was great for snorkeling, swimming, and seeing sea turtles and seals! Also close to Shipwreck beach which had a beautiful coastal trail. Host responded quickly to fix issue with AC in the loft. Nice to have a kitchen for cooking a few of our own meals.

Our Favorite Kauai Locale

We loved being able to walk to three beaches, multiple places to get food, hiking, and the pool/jacuzzi was just a few steps away. An added bonus was all the beach gear. The unit had a great view and it is now our favorite Kauai locale (after many trips to Kauai). We hope to be back soon!

Paradise Honeymoon

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Poipu Kai! My husband and I took a late honeymoon and wanted something special. We knew we wanted the ability to make food, have our privacy, and proximity to beaches. Susan’s place had it all and was so comfortable catering to our every need. 100 percent would go back!

Paradise Found!

We loved our stay! The condo looks just like the pictures and provided a great space for our stay. The view was stunning and we couldn’t get enough of sitting on the lania. The pool was loved by our kids and was very clean! The location was best of all. Easy walk to Poipu beach and 15 minute walk to Shipwreck beach. The grounds where beautiful and we enjoyed how easy is was to walk to the beaches or to the coffee in the morning. Can’t wait to come back!

Great Value

The condo is in an excellent location next to the pool and minutes walk to the beach. The loft can get hot and its air conditioner doesn’t function as well as the main ac. That said everything else was great.

Perfect location, just very HOT inside

This property was perfect for my family of 4. The kids loved the loft and the layout of the space was great. Location was also perfect, offering amazing ocean views, along with the pool, hot tub, and beach nearby. It was well-stocked and had everything we needed. We followed the advice of the property owner to open the windows to allow the trade winds to go through, but it was just too hot to bear, especially in the loft. The AC provided some relief, but it was just so hot everywhere except the main bedroom. The property was not very clean when we arrived. The bathtub had different types of hairs in it—long, short, curly, and what looked like short dog hair. We wiped everything down in the kitchen and bathroom before using these areas. I’m confident we left the place cleaner than it was when we arrived. It might be a good idea to check on the cleaning service to ensure they are doing their job adequately. It was disappointing to arrive feeling like the property was less than clean, especially given the cleaning fee of 245 that was charged to us.

Po’ipu Getaway

The location is spectacular, with wonderful views of the ocean from the very spacious balcony that we had breakfast on every morning. The unit itself was extremely spacious. There was a nice breeze, and no air-conditioning was required on the main floor, but the kids did use the air conditioning up in the loft. Our kids referred to their loft bedroom as the “treehouse.” The kitchen was amazing and was completely stocked with everything we needed. The pool and hot tub area was amazing and for a small fee you can use the tennis courts for tennis or pickle ball.

Hot perch overlooking ocean

We visited and stay in Kauai, many times before. It's, the best island for us. And throughout the years we develop some notion, where to stay and what is best suitable for our budget. But, one could never know what is awaiting for him, before he arrive at his destination. We took a risk in renting a condo overlooking busy area in the beautifully manicured resort, with a promising view of the ocean. Tenis courts and swimming pool area under your balcony prove to be a mistake. As far as the condo itself? Well, let just say, if you like it hot, you will be fine. Our host was responsive to our needs , we thank her for that.....but my advice to her will be this. If you want your customers to be happy in your condo, please make sure, you learn something from each of them, every time they rise an issue. We customers, we do often response to everything we see not "kosher". Here, I choose not to be harsh in the criticism of things, but let me be clear. I will not rent this place in the future.

Ready to return

This was in a perfect location for everything we were trying to do during our visit. Having the pool and hot tub were great for an end of day relaxation and the balcony for morning enjoyment. The beach is walking distance with an area where turtles rest. I have no complaints about the unit, it was everything we expected it to be.

The condo had everything we needed! It was clean and the owner even provided beach towels. It is true that the beach is only a short five minute walk and the washer/dryer, pool, hot tub and tennis court add to the amenities. Thanks!

Perfect stay

My husband, myself, and our two kids ( 6 and 8 year old) stayed here in august. It was absolutely perfect. Clean, safe, and comfortable. Got hot during the day, but a quick dip in the pool made it ok. Quick walk to the beautiful Poipu beach. Loved being able to use the beach chairs and umbrella. If we are so lucky to be able to return to Kauai, we’ll book this place again.

About the host

Hosted by SUSAN SCOTT

Host profile image
I am a mother of three and I live in Utah. I like sharing my favorite place with other people.

Why they chose this property

View, location, and amenities. Photos don't capture how beautiful the view is from the livingroom and dining room, it just washes over you. I want to go outside and jump in the pool, or hit some tennis balls. We sit on the lanai for hours talking, listening to the birds chirp, and feeling the breeze. Its just right for 2-4 people, and feels like an almost minimalist home. The master bedroom has privacy, and the loft is a fun escape. I love to not have to drive everywhere--Breneke's Beach is a 7 minute walk, Poipu Beach is just over the grass from there, with turtles and sea lions and a beautiful sunset to watch. Restaurants almost next door, and many are a short walk away. And, for the car, there is a dedicated parking spot.

What makes this property unique

On the property, there are two community pools (with hot tub) guests can use, and this condo looks out over one of the pools. Guests can also use the private tennis and pickleball courts. There are air-conditioning units in each of the bedrooms if you need them.
