Outstanding!
This was the perfect home base for our Kaua’i adventures. Clean, bright, cozy and relaxing. Coffee in the morning on the back porch, ocean view sunsets upstairs, and a convenient outdoor shower. We take our time to pick winner VRBOs and this was another one. Thanks so much for an amazing stay.

Outstanding place to stay in Poipu
This is a beautiful and very comfortable property for a party of four; probably too small for any more, however. The patio/deck is an excellent place to socialize and play cards in the evening, and it is a 10 minute walk to a fantastic beach. About our only criticism is that the garbage can was not taken out for pick up and the recyclables were not returned before our stay, so that the can was at least half full and the recycling bins were also half full. We also would have liked a little more extra toilet paper and paper towels. Otherwise, everything was great and we would definitely return again.

Book This! It was perfect all around!!
We stayed a week with 10-14 yr old kids and they loved this house so much! Had dual outdoor showers, outdoor beds, Sonos, TV in rooms, all amenities, washer/dryer in garage, surfbaords, wagon, snorkeling gear, balls, etc. Kitchen was stocked with much more than most VRBO's w/ shampoo/conditioner/wash/beach towels/chairs/earplugs for roosters :) Short drives to any activity around Kauai. Walking distance to Brennecke & Poipu Beach which offered boogie boarding, snorkeling in a cove or outside of it with oodles of sea turtles, watching 20-40 sea turtles sleep every night at Poipu beach, sea lions, etc. Walked to Puka Dog and Brenneckes for dinners/lunch and also went to upscale Keoki's which was only 2 min drive. The walks on the beach for sunrise/sunset were breathtaking as you can walk to all the beachside resorts in the area. You could catch a luau there, dine out or take surfing lessons(which we did). It was 20 minutes to Li'hue for Costco, groceries, Kalamaku luau at the Gaylords plantation, or malasadas at the Kauai Bakery and coffee. We shopped/dined in Koloa and loved the lobster roll at Kengi Burger-large burrito size type sushi roll..yummers. We hit Hanapepe (Lilo and Stich city) enroute to snorkeling at Salt Pond Beach and hiking Waimea and Ko'ke state park area. We did the river tubing at Kauai Backcountry Adventures. We loved the north side of the island too-hiked Haena State Park(need reservations months in advance), snorkeled Anini and hung in Hanalei

This was our second stay at this house and everything about it was perfect - the location is close to beaches (where we saw sea turtles every day!), it is well-equipped with everything you need for the beach and we loved the decor and furnishings too. Thank you for having us and we hope to return again!

Kauai Pre-Christmas Vacation
This place was phenomenal! So much room and great covered outdoor space for the storm that blew through. The kids enjoyed sleeping on the screened in lanai. We had one small issue, and the owner and property manager were very quick to respond! The location to the beach was amazing. We definitely hope to return again soon!

Beautiful home with all the essentials
Our family had an amazing time at this property. We had all the essentials and appreciated how much care went into decorating and supplying the home. The open air lanai was perfect and we did not need A/C even on the hottest of days. Our kids absolutely loved the screened in crow's nest. Great place to watch the sunset. We will be back!

Relax at Po’ipū
Really enjoyed our quiet (albeit for the Kaua’i roosters that you’ll get use to) stay here. Being able to open up the living room really made this stay - a great opportunity to host family dinners and drinks as well. If we look to stay in the area again, we’d definitely consider this home again.
