Beautiful, easy condo

Such a beautiful, easy place to stay. Walk out the lanai to the beach, the Hayat, and then into a great trail system to hike along the bluffs where you can look down and see turtles in the water.Kitchen is well appointed. Bed is very comfortable. Would stay here again.

Wow, fantastic location! Unbelievable sunrise views right from your lanai. Loved running and walking on all the pathways in the neighborhood. Very short walk to the beach. The condo itself was well appointed. No central air but had a unit for the bedroom, so comfortable sleeping.

Perfect view and location

This unit has an incredible view. It's extremely well outfitted with everything to make your stay comfortable. It's a very short walk to the beach as well as the large pool. The staff was immediately responsive to a minor issue with the internet on checkin. I would choose this again the next time I am in Kauai.

Perfect! Great Host and Place

We booked this for our anniversary and the host had a note and little gift greeting us to the place. The room where was outstanding – from the minute we walked in until we left. The lanai overlooks Shipwreck beach, and it was delightful to watch the sun rise every morning. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - very comfortable bed and we loved having the AC for our bedroom at night. We would come back to this unit on future trips.

Great visit with friends

We come once a year with friends from Spokane. We were in building 5, they were in building 4. Couldn’t have been easier. Here’s some items to consider: * Door to the bedroom doesn’t stay closed when windows are open. * There a shortage of forks. * Buckles on the extra large swim fins are broken. * We broke a small wine glass. * Would be nice to have a salad spinner. Otherwise perfect.

Even better than expected

This place is amazing. The description doesn’t do it justice. The view is so lovely, and you’re so close to Shipwreck which I think is more beautiful (and less crowded) than Poipu Beach which is a lovely one mile walk. The condo is huge for a 1 bedroom, with 1.5 baths. Kitchen huge and well stocked. Bed is great, bathroom with 2 sinks. Tons of beach gear. Love the ability to open windows for great cross breezes. And the mini AC in bedroom is perfect. Koloa Kai the management company is totally on top of keeping you informed and answering any question. I’ve stayed at a lot of rentals, this is one of the very best.

Poipu Sands Paradise

We usually stay in two bedroom units in this complex, but did one bedroom this time since we were alone. The unit is clean and perfectly located. A few upgrades were suggested to owners and rental agency. This was our first time renting from Koloa Kai and we were very impressed with easy check in and quick responses to our needs. I would recommend this agency to future renters.

Paradise!

We absolutely loved our stay at Poipu Sands! The rental unit is spacious, quiet, clean, and everything we could’ve asked for. The owners seem to have thought of everything that we could possibly need for a beach vacation :) Sitting on the lanai to watch/listen to the ocean was one of our favorite things to do!

Great location. The “inside” AC is too noisy to be useful. Absent a strong wind, and with temperatures rising with global warming, these units may become much less comfortable.

Tropical paradise

The property was just as pictured and actually felt larger in person than the photos depicted. The location was perfectly situated with beautiful ocean and beach access. The additional fans that were provided in the unit were helpful to keep the living spaces outside of the bedroom comfortable. The portable air unit did struggle a bit to cool the bedroom but overall was not a problem. We appreciated the easy check in and check out. It’s certainly nice when property owners respect that a cleaning fee is being charged with the reservation, therefore, not asking the guests to take multiple steps in cleaning the unit before departure is a welcomed gesture. We would love to return to your property in the future. Mahalo.

I have traveled the world and don't often post reviews. This is an outstanding place. I wish we could have been here our original day (thank you United Airlines). I strongly recommend it. Many reasons for this. Other reviews articulated them. I often consider not posting a (deserved) exceptional review, because I don't want it to become so popular I can never book it again. Probably won't be back in Kauai for years, so ... this is exceptional. We loved our stay.
