We really enjoyed our six day stay at this wonderful condo and would love to return someday! The view from the lanai is wonderful, and the sound of the waves crashing on the lava outcroppings was entrancing. We spent mornings and evenings having most meals

Amazing Property with Spectacular Views

planned this trip for my 81-year-old mother, who had always dreamed of seeing the turtles one last time. I found this property, and it couldn't have been more perfect—especially with elevator access, which made things much easier for her. We spent hours on the patio, enjoying the sound of waves crashing against the lava rocks and watching the turtles right from where we sat. It was a truly special and memorable experience.

Can’t wait to go back!

Location is incredible! Can walk to multiple beaches and food locations. So fun to sit on patio and listen and watch waves crash. We loved every second of it and will be first place we book on our next trip.

Amazing location

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in 405A. The condo was comfortable and well stocked. Even in January, having AC was a bonus. The view from the lanai is amazing. We saw tons of turtles and a couple whales and dolphins. The pool area is beautiful and there was hardly anyone using it. The location is great. It's close to beaches and many very good restaurants. The only drawback is the parking can be tricky at times... access can be difficult and spaces are small. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.

Just AMAZING

From booking through check in through the entire stay this property was amazing. There was not one “oh I can live that” issue. Everything was clean and in place as shown and listed. Corey was wonderful to work with but quite honestly there didn’t need to be any interaction since a few days prior to arriving we had photos and guide on what to expect. The sound of the waves on the sea wall for us was the finishing touch on an oceanfront property. The turtles in the ocean did not disappoint either. My wife fell in love with the pool as well.

PERFECT LOCATION IN POIPU AREA

The owner thought of every detail to make our stay at the condo very enjoyable!! The condo was clean and well stocked with enough towels, beach towels, beach equipment, etc. The binoculars were perfect to zoom in and watch the many sea turtles below our lanai. You are able to get an idea of view from condo in real time from “Live Cams”, as the camera is right next to the condo pointed in direction of Poipu Beach. The condo is in a great location to walk to Brennecke’s Beach and Poipu Beach. It is also within walking distance of the Lava Arch Beach, which has access to a trail that connects to Shipwreck Beach and the Maha’ulepu Heritage Trail…it was a very convenient trail to walk to the Grand Hyatt for breakfast at Ilima Terrace and dinner at Tidepools (even though kitchen in condo was well stocked, being on vacation I opted not to cook). Ear plugs were provided and appreciated in the second bedroom, as the window isn’t sound proof so you are able to hear people in hall coming and going. Master bedroom/bath is on the ocean side so all you hear is the soothing sounds of the waves (no ear plugs needed)!

The view from this condo is breathtaking, the condo was excellent and we enjoyed our stay. We will be back. Beds were so comfy.I loved this condo, the only negative Is the bathroom shower in the main bedroom is tricky and I we had to play with it to get the shower to come on.We could literally hear waves crashing every night!!! And turtles right below us every single day.

Christmas stay

We had a wonderful time staying over Christmas. There were binoculars in the condo and we spotted a whale and lots of sea turtles, and the balcony views were unbeatable. The beds were comfortable and the layout of the kitchen and fining/living spaces were great. It would be nice to have a few pantry staples for cooking other than salt and pepper, otherwise it was incredible! Location was perfect.

The property location was awesome. The floors at the condo were not clean along with a comforter that had an unidentifiable stain and clearly not washed. The property mgr communicated consistently and did assure me that his cleaning company would be notified.

Excellent Location!

We truly enjoyed this condo, the convenient location to Poipu Beach and the stunning views! The fourth floor location was perfect for watching sea turtles below, watching the surf crash against the rocks, and activities down the coastline at Shipwreck Beach. The roof overhang protected us from the rain so we could enjoy the outdoors even when raining. It is a short drive to Koala Town, Poipu Shopping Center and The Shops at Kakui'ula where there are many dining options. The location is a very short walk to Shipwreck or Poipu Beach, so you can avoid the congested parking lots. You can also pick up the Maha'ulepu Heritage Trail just up the street to enjoy a beautiful walk along the coastline. We appreciated the thoughtful conveniences such as complimentary shampoo and conditioner, body wash, laundry detergent, beach chairs and sun umbrella! The bed and pillows were so comfortable, and after acclimating to the very loud surf, we slept great! A few items in need of improvement would be fixing the sliding screen door, replacing non-stick pans in kitchen, and checking drains on the faucets as they did not go easily go up/down and were slow. Upgrading the hairdryer and adding a lighted and magnified makeup mirror would be a nice addition. Overall this is a super comfortable condo with stunning views and an outstanding location. We hope to return next year!

Kauai

The condo was in an ideal location, which was part of our decision to choose it for our visit. Another factor in our choice was air conditioning. Unfortunately, the whole time we were there, it was broken. There were fans to use, which sadly eliminated the sound of the ocean. We received no refund for this, even though it made our stay less than ideal. The condo was very well equipped, the manager was very kind and attentive. The only thing lacking was a small table or two next to our chairs. All in all, it’s a great place to stay if the air conditioning is working.

This unit is perfect to watch the beautiful Hawaii sunsets. We were able to watch dolphins leaping out of the water, sea turtles feeding on the rocks and even a monk seal swimming in the water. The unit had everything you needed and we enjoyed our stay.

The Ocean is the Star

The ocean view, ocean access and ocean sounds are the star of this property. The unobstructed view of the ocean is beyond belief and the sound of the waves crashing on shore is a wonderful lullaby. The beach is close by with a short Oceanside stroll.

Didn’t make the same mistake twice…

Last time I was in Kauai I stayed somewhere else…didn’t make that same mistake twice. This time I chose Poipu Shores and will never stay any where else. Everything about this place was amazing. The view…saw tons whales and turtles swimming by…as we were sitting on the lanai. Short walk to the beach where seals and turtle beaches themselves nightly to sleep. Amazing. The condo was itself was clean, the bathroom perfect, showers were perfect….we even bought the same exact shower heads they had when we got home. Kitchen was spotless and came with everything you would ever need. Washer and dryer. Every night we fell asleep to the crashing oceacn right out side the window. It was just as easy to get in as it was to leave. There is plenty of room here. If you do not stay here you will be cheating yourself and your adventure. I promise you…this is the place! Thank you.

On the Precipice of Paradise

Tremendous views from the lanai and throughout nearly this entire condo. Amazing sunsets to be seen, with daily sea turtle sightings and the occasional dolphin and whale watching…all without having to step foot outside the condo. Also to be enjoyed are the Pacific waves crashing into the rocks below (light sleepers beware :) The condo came well equipped for cooking/eating in. There were plenty of towels and toiletry basics. Plus a full bevy of beach gear; chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, snorkel gear plus a wagon to easily haul everything. Something to note, is the area rugs in the living room and master bedroom. They seem to be massively shedding fibers, which are tracked everywhere up onto the couch, etc. Like living with dogs/cats. Poipu Shores is a great property, with a very nice cliffside heated pool, several bbq grills are available, plenty of parking, and only a few minutes walk from the property to Poipu and Shipwreck beaches. Only a few minutes drive to a multitude of Poipu’s excellent dining, shopping and shaved ice options. Koloa is about a five minute drive away, with a collection of tasty food trucks and the old plantation shopping center. The Fresh Shave is a must there. Poipu is a fairly ‘central’ location to stay on Kauai. Exploring other parts of the island, Poipu Shores is ~20-30min drive from LIH and ~45min-1hr from the far Western (Waimea Canyon, Na’pali Coast) and/or Northern Shores (Princeville, Hanalei) of the island. The South Shore / Poipu area weather is less rainy and typically the surf is calmer and more conducive for swimming, snorkeling, etc., especially in the winter months. Overall great stay. Can’t wait for our next Kauai trip.
