This condo was a great place for our family to stay in Poipu. We loved the location, but in all honesty would probably not go back in August (which is on us!) as it was really hot without air conditioning despite several fans in the unit. All the locals told us it was unusually hot for August and that the trade winds were not as strong as they normally are which led us all to be sweating by 9am most days. Being from Texas, we were used to the heat but also used to our beloved air conditioning too! Luckily we were out adventuring and seeing this beautiful island or at the beach most of the time. The condo was clean but came with no basics (spices, sponges, etc,) in the kitchen which the owner had warned us about. The closet downstairs is stashed with surfboard, boogie boards, umbrella and anything you need for a day at the beach. Speaking of the owners, Volker and Gina are extremely welcoming, sending us several helpful emails prior to our visit with information on everything from rental cars, directions, where to shop for groceries, restaurants, etc. Very nice people who exemplify the Aloha Spirit! We definitely recommend renting this unit, just be mindful about going during the hotter months.
