This house was a spectacular place to stay for our vacation! The view of the ocean from the lanai was fabulous, we were able to watch whales breaching in the ocean from the comfort of this home! Proximity to the beaches and several restaurant/bars is true as stated in the listing-a short walk! Chris, our host, is one of the nicest and most accommodating we have ever had. Thank you for sharing your home!
Wonderful home with excellent host. Great communication, responsive to questions. Kitchen had everything we needed. Clean.Lots of beach equipment to have fun days at the beach. Easy walk to beaches.Family friendly. We had 6adults, but other family on the island to celebrate our 50th Anniversary.
Chris was a welcoming host, very responsive to questions, and best of all, the accommodations exceeded our expectations.We enjoyed the view of the ocean from the balcony, the well-stocked beach gear room, and the quick walk to the beach.Most of us took morning and evening walks to check out the turtles on the beach. The kids rented surfboards and even took a lesson.Having stayed at other properties in Poipu, this is now our new favorite for family trips!
This place was amazing! Steps from incredible snorkeling and boogie boarding with three kids ages 10-15. House was pristine and comfortable. We can’t wait to go back another time!
Location can’t be beat and house is fully stocked with everything you need. Chris is very helpful and responsive with anything that may come up. Had a great time at the beach!
Overall, the property had everything we wanted during our stay in Poipu. The house was spacious, clean and stocked with all the right amenities. It was walking distance to beaches and came stocked with everything you would need at the beach. The owner was very communicative and the checkin/checkout process was very easy. Would stay here again without a doubt.
Chris was a fabulous host, and the house was terrific to stay at. Steps to the beach, which we did every day, nice and quiet in the evenings.
We will look forward to returning again in the future for another fun filled week!
This great property is located one block off the beach with many outstanding amenities. The two separate floors made it easy for our young granddaughter to sleep with a monitor while we viewed the ocean and whales from the patio. Chris is an excellent host that responds to any questions or needs you may have. Highly recommend
This house was perfect for the 6 of us and the host Chris was so helpful and attentive. The house is 100 yards from the ocean and had all the amenities we needed. It is also stocked with plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc. Look no further for your place to stay in Poipu. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai.
Chris is a dream host, having reached out before our trip to provide the keyless access code and internet password, address (of course), a useful car rental and airport tip, and even asked if there were any special requests. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a personalized welcome letter, a box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts (delicious BTW) and emergency phone numbers for both him and Theresa. He even checked-in (via VRBO) to make sure that our stay was going well. The house is absolutely beautiful, a stunning view of the beach and Pacific Ocean, a short walk to two beaches (including the infamous Poipu beach where sea turtles come to shore each night) and the famous Puka Dog. The home was clean and welcoming, very well stocked, and you could even say that it’s a VRBO renter’s dream.
The house was beautiful -- clean, all the appliances worked and close to the beach. The host was truly outstanding. I had one minor problem, texted him, and he replied immediately and fixed it on our schedule. He also told us some history of Kauai only a local would know!
We chose this location because we read that good weather in the winter is on the South Shore and we were not disappointed. Brennecke's Beach for riding the waves was just a short walk and with a beach cart available it made carrying chairs, boogie boards, snorkling gear, etc (all of which Chris has available!) an easy trek. Poipu Beach located adjacent to Brennecke's is great for snorkeling. And the location is an easy drive from the airport as well as convenient to Costco and Walmart for grocery runs. Chris was a wonderful host and his place provided an inviting and comfortable place to stay during our visit. Should we find an opportunity to return to this beautiful island, we most certainly would choose to stay at Chris'.
This rental is outstanding!!! The house is so close to Brennecke's and Poipu Beaches.Literally 4 min walk.The house is equipped with everything you will need. From anything beach related, to a well stocked kitchen. If you think you may have forgotten something in the way of toiletries, just look in the cabinet in the upstairs bathroom. it is stocked with everything. The house was very clean and well maintained. The owner Chris is the nicest man!!! We were welcomed with a basket with coffee and fruit. I really can't say enough good things about this rental except we didn't want to leave. Thanks again Chris!!
Place is all anyone would want. View of ocean, close to beach like 3 houses. Boogie boards, fins, masks, flip flops,
suntan lotion of all types, mustard, mayo, ketchup and most spices, puzzles for down time, lounge chairs for beach, umbrellas and cart to take all the stuff and much more. Air in all bedrooms and in living rm upstairs along with ceiling fans. Side patio downstairs with great breeze with table & chairs & upstairs sitting for 8 with 2 tables. Mahalo Chris. Everyone loved the place.
Lovely home to spend a week in Kauai. Clean and extremely well stocked with additional items typically not provided in rental properties (toiletries, paper products, number of beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels, etc.) Chris (the owner) stopped by to bring us some fresh fruit and removed some ripe bananas from the property's tree. Along with the additional fruit we purchased, we make unbelievable smoothies during the week. The location could not be better. Two minute walks to see sunrises and sunsets at Poipu Beach. We drove over 800 miles during our 9 days visiting so many beautiful beaches, sites and hiked several half and all day trails. Also always fun to stop and shop at some great outdoor malls. We were so fortunate that the weather was perfect the week between Christmas to after New Years. Chris sent a thoughtful thank you text after our stay and we replied that we hope our future travels take us back to their home and Kauai. If you are thinking of staying at this home you don't be disappointed!
Amazing property half a block from Ocean. Close to eateries and a wondedul beach that has great snorkeling. The home was so accomodating and has all the amenities for cooking as well as beach items.
Host was communicative during the tsunami evacuation. Fully stocked with snorkels, beach chairs, towels. Definitely not the Four Seasons but a very welcoming perfect spot for families!
Excellent location and Chris does a great job of providing tips for local activities and sights. Great spot on a beautiful island, the beach supplies were much appreciated as well.
Chris, the owner has very quick in responding to any questions or needs. The kitchen is adequately equipped. There were plenty of towels and basic toiletries in the bathrooms. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the beach is a two minute walk.Our family had a wonderful stay.
The family and I had a fabulous time staying in Poipu. We were fortunate to have perfect weather. The location is excellent for taking advantage of all of the shopping and eating available around the Poipu area. The off street parking is a real plus.
Chris was a great communicator and the property was exactly as described. It ended up being perfect for a family trip. It was a short walk away from Poipu beach & a short drive to Shipwreck Beach.
We loved our stay; spacious, comfortable, and relaxing. They have all the amenities for beach activities. A fabulous location. Chris is a great communicator and made things easy for us. Loved it.
Location was great. House was very spacious and comfortable. The kitchen lacked a lot of basic things needed for cooking (oil, etc.). Overall a comfortable stay and 2 minute walk from an amazing beach.
