Hale Lo'i Cottage: Luxury + Convenience in Poipu

This bright, spacious, brand-new 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage has everything you could possibly need for a flawless vacation—and luxurious perks galore, including an outdoor lava-rock shower. Located in a quiet, upscale neighborhood, this charming tropical hideaway is close to some of Kaua‘i’s best beaches, shops, restaurants, and other irresistible attractions. If you just feel like relaxing in your beautiful, hardwood-floored home away from home, there’s high-speed Wi-Fi, cable TV, an air-conditioned bedroom with comfy king-size bed made up with posh Frette linens, and a full bath, stocked with deluxe Malie Organics sundries (shampoo, conditioner, bath lather, body lotion, and liquid hand soap, all subtly enhanced by Malie’s trademark Koke‘e fragrance).

When you’re ready to venture out, a wonderland of dazzling scenery and entertaining activities awaits. Close to home—within walking distance—you’ll find a picture-perfect sandy beach where you can swim, snorkel, surf, stand up paddle, jog, picnic, read, build sandcastles, or just soak up the restorative rays of the South Shore sun.

A few yards farther down the road is a truly enchanting shopping center: Then Shops at Kukui‘ula. Here you can explore enticing restaurants, unique boutiques, beautiful art galleries, and a natural-foods market that features a large selection of delectable takeout fare. This popular hub also features seasonal celebrations and weekly events such as lively “Kanikapila” performances (Hawaiian-music jam sessions) and a colorful Culinary Market where you can stock your fully equipped kitchen with gloriously fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as homemade jams, jellies, and baked goods.

There are many other nearby attractions, too. The spectacular Spouting Horn blowhole is a must-see phenomenon, while the lush, flower-filled National Tropical Botanical Garden offers fascinating guided tours and free hula shows on certain days. It’s an easy walk to a sparkling seaside park, where you can swim, picnic, play lawn games, and catch the stunning sunset every evening. Also close by: several first-class hotels with all the usual public features restaurants that range from casual to elegant; ocean-view bars; state-of-the art spas; and intriguing gift shops.

Once you jump into the car, the menu of appealing excursions will expand so epically that you may wonder how an island the size of Kaua‘i can boast such an amazing array of places to go, sights to see, and things to do. With easy access to the highway, Hale Lo‘i is ideally located in the center of the island, with Waimea Canyon and expansive, pristine beaches to the west, and majestic Wailua Falls and scenic Hanalei town to the east and north, respectively.

Whether you’ve spent your time lazing at an idyllic white-sand beach, enjoying recreational activities, or being enthralled by the island’s magnificent landscapes, you’ll always come home to the lovely option of a refreshing splash under your own private waterfall: an outdoor shower made from gorgeously rugged lava rocks. Then it’s back to your sunny cottage to relax, revive, and get ready for the next adventure.

Cozy cottage
The cottage was perfect for the two of us on our honeymoon! Amenities were great (washer/dryer was extremely useful). Bathroom was also nice—the shower was noteworthy. Everything was well stocked from welcome gifts and wine openers to utensils and coffee. The bed was a little finicky, hut we ended up taking off the foam topper which helped a lot. Prime location too! Poipu and Kōloa are awesome places to be on the island!!!

Excellent Poipu Stay
We had a wonderful week in Poipu and were very pleased with the accommodations. Very quiet location within minutes of great snorkeling and restaurants. We also went up to Waimea Canyon, which was a beautiful drive, and went on the Canyon Trail hike. The hosts also included a binder with very useful information about the island, including recommendations for restaurants, activities, and places to visit. We highly recommend this place!

Perfect Poipu Cottage
This is the perfect cottage for two people. It's roomy, comfortable, and in the best location - close to everything! The kitchen allows for cooking, the laundry machines are great for longer stays, the AC was wonderful and the outdoor shower is an added touch. The communication with the management company was easy. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Paradise!
This cottage is immaculate!! We loved our stay here!! Perfect location! We never wanted to leave Kauai!! I could live in this beautiful cottage for the rest of my life! We would come home from sunset on the beach and it happened to be a full moon that week and we would use the outdoor lava rock shower that was lit by the moonlight!!

Best Honeymoon Spot I Could’ve Picked
Everything about this property was perfect for honeymoon lodging: very clean and organized, spacious for a couple, convenient amenities (including full sized bath products for guests to use that smell and feel great!), very cute and quiet neighborhood, comfortable furniture, and very quick responses from the owner. We were always in the loop if something happened on the property (they let us know their AC units were inoperable, so they put portable AC units in the bedroom and living room that worked just as good). When we arrived, we even received some treats as a welcome gift for our honeymoon. Lots of shops, beaches, restaurants, and activities nearby as well. I wouldn’t have stayed anywhere else. We will definitely recommend this spot to anyone staying in the Poipu area, and we will surely be back as well!

Perfect in Koloa!
This little home away from home was just perfect for the two of us. We were here for a week for our 28th anniversary and it was all that the listing said and more! Our time here was special and we will not forget this place for future bookings. The location was great and the amenities were exactly what we expected, amazing. The bed was comfy and the hosts were welcoming and set the tone of our time here from the time of check in until the morning that we left. It was truly a great stay and we were sad to leave. Mahalo!

Very nice place and stay
This property was by far, the best vacation rental we’ve experienced. We trace quite a bit, and are landlords ourselves. This property was well-put together and equipped. I met the owners upon check in accidentally, and they were very nice people. The neighborhood is fabulous and close to many conveniences like shopping or eating out. We will definitely return someday.

Kauai Cottage
This is an excellent and very adorable cottage that is represented exactly like the pictures!! For our taste the location on the southern end is the best as there were plenty of places to see, eat and beach, compared to the northern area of the island. As for the cottage, we are heavy use VRBO couple and this, by far was the nicest and most up to date cottage we have ever stayed in. We very much recommend it!

No outdoor space
Clean, yet generic space. No outdoor patio, garden or anywhere we could sit to have morning coffee or evening wine. Once returning to our rental, we could have been anywhere. We had to leave to enjoy being in Hawaii. Long walk to closest beach along a busy road. Not really something we wanted to do daily.

Perfect spot in Poipu
We loved our stay here! The place is clean, comfortable, and overall really nice. The location is excellent — close to beaches, restaurants, shops and in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I would most definitely stay here again! My only issue that I’d knock off half a star off for is that it’d get a little warm at night. I woke up hot nearly every morning. A lighter weight blanket and a full length mirror would be nice additions.

A clean and welcoming property that is beautifully appointed with high end finishes and Hawaiian photography. Furniture is very comfortable. Laundry is handy - don’t overpack! Upon arrival we found a lovely note from the property manager, bottle of wine, snacks and ground coffee. Do not leave food out - ants will find it. Management took care of this immediately. Beautiful indoor shower/bath as well as outdoor. Safe and quiet neighborhood with many large estate properties. Walkable neighborhood and excellent location. Absolutely no complaints! It was perfect!

This is a wonderful property. The only problem that we had was finding it in the dark. There are no street lights and the address is faint and high on the side of the house. Most of the other houses on the cul-de-sac had addresses at street level at the edge of the driveways. We finally had to knock at a neighbor's door and they were kind enough to help us find it after searching with their flashlight .

Everything was clean and new, almost like staying in a model home beach house. The bedding was perfect; comfortable and soft. Quiet, clean neighborhood near Poipu beach and shopping. Would highly recommend it for the south shore adventures. We stayed half the week on the south shore at this house , then moved up to the North shore for the second half of the week.

Perfect for two!
Quiet, safe neighborhood situated near restaurants and shops and short walk to the ocean! We were kindly welcomed with a bottle of wine, cookies and a Bouquet, a very nice touch! Comfortable bed and just the right size gor 2! The garage is definitely a perk, and we had a remote and vode for easy access. They also sipplied a nice size cooler, beach chairs and umbrella! There's a water hose that we used to wash the red dirt off our hiking boots! Nearby is a walking path that guides you through some beautiful scenery next to a golf course. My husband fell in love with the outdoor shower! The only negative was the television reception was often poor, but, management was very responsive and attempted to solve this problem. We, of course, weren't here for tv so definitely didn't ruin our stay! They were very quick to respond to all our requests. Overall an exceptional property and location! We would stay here again!
