Our family of 5 stayed here for 3 nights and it was a perfect base to explore the surrounding area. Lots of space, well-equipped kitchen and enjoyed the separate bedroom upstairs with bathroom and its own lanai. Easy short walk to the beaches & park for sunrise/sunset and to see the turtles.
We enjoyed our stay in Poipu. It was such a short walk to the beach each day. We walked to dinner at a nearby restaurant one night. The huge lanai was pleasant to enjoy our morning coffee together.

Family’s vacation
We were a family of 5 and the place was comfortable for all of us. It’s really well located in a quiet area and walking distance to an amazing beach. We used the chairs, boogie board and snorkeling gears. The condo is a bit old but we would recommend the sight.

Would highly recommend this condo and community
This place was incredible and exceeded our expectations. The community is fantastic with 3 swimming pools, 6 tennis courts, a restaurant, a rental shop, easy walk to the beach, and restaurants. I couldn’t ask for more. I would buy a place here I loved it so much.
Walking distance to the beach and eating areas. Close to the zip lining location which is I why I chose this for our family to stay at. Happy they had floor fans as well as ceiling fans. The goodies was a nice surprise! Will definitely stay here again!
Great location! Stocked kitchen even though we did not cook this trip. It was hot at first but was able to place fans to circulate air. Clean and spacious! Came with extra ‘stuff’ to enjoy the beach!

Great location
We loved our stay. The home has everything you need for the beach. You cannot beat the location. One small thing we would like to see just a little bit of simple maintenance around the interior of the condo. But cannot beat this home. We will book again.

Perfect location
Property has a great location with amazing views. Lots of space and areas to lounge around and enjoy the peace and quiet.The only thing I wish could be changed is the access to the pool, which locations is quite far from room, and you need the key to get into the gate....and to let yourself out. It was quiet weird and inconvenient considering we had 1 key for 6 guest to share. Overall we enjoyed our stayed and would try this place again for our staycations.
We stayed for two weeks at this Manualoha rental in the Poipu area. We enjoyed the 7 to 10 minute walk to the busy beautiful beaches. We enjoyed returning to the solitude of the pool which can only be entered by Manualoha guests that have the entry key. Sometimes we were the only people at the pool! The home was very comfortable and the large lanai was a beautiful place to relax. The master bedroom with large closet and shower was a bonus. Some of the appliances are showing their age but still work! Had a great stay!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Great area and spacious unit, but...
Pros: We loved the location and grounds. We could walk to Brenneke's, Shipwreck and Poipu beach through beautifully landscaped grounds. The unit is large and the decks are nice. The kitchen was well stocked, the suite had lots of beach toys, and the beds were comfy. Cons: I don't mind dated, but the cooktop stove handles were so badly stripped there was no way to tell how hot or cold, or on or off the elements were. After one disastrous attempt to use it we gave up cooking. The dishwasher was so old the racks had holes in them from rust, large enough that dishes could actually fall through. The coffee machine hadn't been cleaned and the free cookies were open and half consumed. There was no blind on the window in our kids room, allowing anyone at or near the front door to see into the room. We reported our issues and the company, Vacasa, got back to us quickly. They replaced the coffee machine and cookies and without us asking they sent a partial refund. Apparently the stove and dishwasher are scheduled to be replaced. Hopefully the blind too. I appreciated the quick replies from them. I would book with them again, but not this unit until it's fixed.

Desperate for Updates
Lots of potential, but unfortunately very disappointing.
Pros:
-Location, location, location. Walk to multiple beaches and restaurants/bars
-Fully stocked kitchen
-Washer and dryer
Cons:
-In desperate need of some TLC. Ripped blinds, old and chipped paint, stained carpets, wicker chairs with tears, nasty tiles in the master shower, and a rusty dishwasher. Just didn’t feel clean or cared for.
-Internal privacy: Take note that the listing does say the master is a loft. I appreciate the honestly there but they fail to say how open the rest of the unit is. The master bathroom doors have wooden slats for air movement which means you can hear everything happening in the bathroom from anywhere in the condo. The downstairs room is also not private, just a sliding door with slats.
-External privacy: Due to no air conditioning there are open windows to the outside. When entering the unit you can hear everything going on in other units and in the mornings we could hear kids from other units.
-Door Lock: After traveling all day to get to Kauai, the code we were given did not work. Vacasa did not answer the phone but thankfully were responsive via texting. It took about 20 minutes to get a code that worked, but then the lock was finicky the rest of the trip and we kept wondering if each time we left if we were gonna be able to get back in.
Everything was great! There were lots of amenities: toys, chairs, an umbrella, etc. and a wagon to haul everything to the beach. The kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of towels, etc.
Had a wonderful time at Manualoha 608. Due to louvre doors on bedrooms and open primary suite open to space below, limited privacy. Beautiful views from decks. A/C was very helpful and made the space very pleasant due to warmer summer temps and humidity.. Looking to stay in 2026 for a month.

Comfortable, very well equipped condo walking distance to the best beaches in south Kauai
Our family of 4 really enjoyed this very comfortable condo. It's an easy walk to Poipu Beach, also to the Hyatt and Shipwreck Beach. Condo was clean and well equipped. The kitchen was totally functional, clean and organized, with everything you need to cook real meals, including a wide variety of spices available. We enjoyed the Manualoha pool--clean, clear water with a real deep end! We would definitely stay there again!
Gorgeous property, with an easy 10 minute walk to the beach. Welcome goodies were a thoughtful and delicious touch. The master bedroom is a loft, open to the downstairs, allows you to hear the kids on the sofa bed talking at night when they should be sleeping 😉. Not a criticism, but the only spices available are salt and pepper, so bring what you need. We really enjoyed sitting on one of the 3 lanais, especially in the evening. Very comfortable.

Amazing
At first look we were amazed at how beautifully decorated this place was, from the comfortable couch, to the dining table and large mirrors everywhere to give it a great open feel. I loved being able to watch the sunset from the shower. The master suite upstairs gave us space to be able to make our business calls without the kids voices in the background. We were able to walk to the beach, dinner, rental shop, the pool was great with an ocean view. Beds were also comfortable! We had a great time! I would rent this place again in a heartbeat!
