Poipu Ka stay
We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The complex is well maintained and the accommodations were wonderful. We especially appreciated that the beach chairs & equipment were there, and were thankful to have the laundry facilities right in the unit. We would definitely stay there again on our next trip.

Great location
The location was great -- a pretty walk through the resort to the Poipu beach. It was also a central location when driving to Waimea canyon or up to the North shore. The condo was comfortable with updated bathrooms and a well-stocked kitchen. We went with teens, but would be ideal for a family with littles, as well.

Nice two bedroom unit
We really enjoyed our stay. Really nice two bedroom unit with a great little pool just down the stairs and a nice view from the balcony. The Poipu Athletic center was a great perk! Huge and versatile workout center with TRX, two basketball courts, pickle ball, etc. We would definitely stay there again.

Amazing Condo
We loved our stay at this condo in Poipu. It was super clean, all of the appliances worked, communication was above-par, and it was about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. We also appreciated having some air conditioning units for nights that were a little warm.

Great location!
Great location! Place came fully stocked too which was soo nice! There is a coffee pot and tea kettle. In the bottom bedroom closet there is plenty of beach stuff such as a huge cooler, towels, snorkel gear and umbrellas. Was so nice to not have to bring these things with us. The view is amazing and we would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in Poipu!

Great property manager had a poor experience
I won't go in to all the details but we had an issue with the heat in the place. Lowest we got it was 81 which isn't sleepable in. The owners were great to work with so I will give them props there. I'm guessing most don't have this experience which is why it's such a highly rated place. Great location too.

Great location
Easy walking to two beaches. Property could use a good carpet shampooing and some screen/window fixing. We still enjoyed our stay and it was overall clean. It’s just not as spotless as we had hoped, given that nobody is supposed to wear shoes inside which is pretty normal for Hawai’i. We had a few small issues with the windows and screens and the property manager responded very quickly and did everything to fix it. We would stay there again.

Great location and condo
My family and I were very pleased with the stay. The property is located near most things to do on the south side. There was a lot of attention to details with things like supplying actual (Costco brand) shampoo/conditioner/body wash. Some cooking supplies such as (nonexpired) olive oil/balsamic vinaigrette and other spices made simple meals easy to prepare. As a family with kids it was very nice having 2 separate bathrooms and 2 separate bedrooms for privacy. Another location in Princeville that we are still currently at (paying more for) does not have any of these amenities and is not in nearly as good of overall condition. We highly recommend this location for your stay.

Well appointed condo with great location and access to multiple pools
Great 2 level condo unit with AC units in both bedrooms and a great flow of air on the main floor with a ceiling fan. We really enjoyed our stay. The unit has great amenities in the kitchen and also plenty of beach equipment. Totally saved us time and money without needing to rent those things. The pool just outside the units entry staircase was very nice and it felt like our own private oasis. You also can access the association pool area which is a bigger pool with also a hot tub. The homeowner also gives you access to the Poipu beach athletic club which was totally awesome. Like a country club. Totally awesome place to stay

Great location and property
The condo was beautifully decorated and easy walking distance to the beach. The location was great. The condo is updated in terms of appliances, furniture, and the beds were comfortable. It was nice having a washer and dryer in the unit as well as beach gear. Some minor feedback for improvement would be the carpet. It could use a good cleaning as this is the first thing you’ll notice when you walk in. The upstairs master did not have black out blinds, so you'll get some headlights lighting up the room at night. Was weird the first night, but you get used to it. Beside these two minor things, this place is wonderful. The communication before and during the trip was fantastic. Would for sure stay here again.

Very nice condo
The condo is very well located and the mountain view is good. The balcony is spacious and located towards the east with a lot of morning sun. However, there is a crossroad and the street to the Hilton and other Hotels close by, so expect some car noise. The sleeping rooms have a very good size and are well furnished so are the bathrooms. They even provide shampoo, showergel, conditioner and lots of towels (including beach towels) and beachgear. The kitchen has everything you need including a good variety of spices, salt, pepper and heaps of pans, pots and glasses. The cleanliness was very good. Beside the bathrooms and kitchen, the whole condo has carpeted floors, which feels a bit used already and might not be the best choice for a condo in tropics. Overall very worth the money and thanks for everything.
