Excellent stay
"WOW" was my first impression upon walking into this condo. As pictured, very well taken care of, perfect location, spotless, inviting, comfortable bed. Wonderful views from the lanai. What else can I say. I can go on and on. Deborah was amazing in getting back to me on my questions. She gave me great recommendations on where to eat and what to do while there. Highly recomend this condo. We will definitely come back.

Paradise in Hawaii
This condo is truly paradise in Hawaii. The condo has everything you will need for a comfortable stay. The 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked well for our family. The one thing we enjoy while on vacation is waking up and having our coffee on the lanai and this was the best we have experienced with great views of the ocean and mountains. We often ended our days eating dinner on the lanai watching amazing sunsets. It was very convenient to have beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler to bring to the beach. It was a very clean and updated condo. Deborah was wonderful to work with and was in touch throughout the whole process and answered all our questions. She really cares that you have a great vacation. The location was very convenient to explore the island and nice that it was a short walk to the beach. We can't wait to return!

Beautiful Location in Paradise
Everything about our stay here was perfect: it has every amenity you could ever need (from beach gear, to comfy beds, to kitchen utensils, to AC!); it's conveniently located by all the hot spots on the south side of the island; and communication from the owner was amazing throughout. Best of all, the view from the balcony was unmatched! I wish we could sip coffee or mai tai's on it forever. We hope to return and cannot say enough good things about Deb and her home!

We arrived at sunset. Everyone’s mouth dropped at the amazing view. From the beginning Deb was very communicative. The place was updated and nicely furnished with very comfortable beds, as well as very organised. The place was a short walk to the beach where we saw monk seals, sea turtles, and dolphins. We will definitely rebook again, thank you for the amazing experience!

Excellent place for families and a great time!
This was as our second time staying at this condo. The vicinity to the beach, restaurants and shopping makes it an ideal location. The property is quiet, the staff and other tenants are always friendly. The pool is great when you need a little time away from the sand and salt. My recommendation couldn't be any stronger! If you are looking for a great place to stay while exploring Kauai, you've found it. Being on the third level affords excellent views of the sunset, ocean and mountains. You will not be disappointed!

Perfect location
We had an excellent stay at Deb's home. I was a little nervous about renting a home as I've always stayed at a big resort when traveling but from the moment I booked she was wonderful with giving insight about the area and recommendations on restaurants close by for my picky kids or answering any question I may have. The place was extremely clean, welcoming and felt like home to us. And I can't get over the views, they were amazing! We had picture perfect views of the sunset every night and I loved being able to relax in the morning with my coffee while sitting on the lanai watching the ocean or looking off in the distance towards the mountains. We were in a great location with being a short walk to the beach where my daughter would help the volunteers count the sea turtles each night. During our stay Deb even checked in on us to make sure we didn't need anything and that everything was going well. She went well above and beyond and was an amazing host! I hope to return to Kauai in the future and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

You can’t beat the views! We watched whales breach in the morning and had the most amazing sunsets. The condo is a nice 5-10 min walk to a boogie board beach, playground, family friendly beach, snorkeling, turtle watching, and Brenneckes restaurant. The pool was great as well. Costco and Target are on the way from the airport so it’s easy to get necessities at the same price as the mainland. Deb is a GEM. Quick communication, great recommendations. Our Alaska flight got changed last minute and she was able to accommodate a late check out. We will be back!

Perfect, centralized location for a Kauai vacation
Poipu is the place to stay for a home base in Kauai. Close, safe beaches, centralized access to the island, 15 miles from the airport. This rental back patio has some of the best views of Poipu's scenery/beach/ocean, being on the 3rd floor--even better than the local hotel beach views, in my opinion. The unit is situated so it catches an unobstructed, scenic view of the sunset. For getting the high view point, the unit is on the 3rd floor so it's a trek up 2 flights of stairs, so be mindful if you have trouble going up/down stairs. Very clean and well equipped. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, full kitchen. Equipped with beach chairs, cooler, boogie board. Absolutely no complaints and I would 100% come back here again.
