Stunning Romantic Oceanfront 1 Bd $195/Night $1350/Week

Why the Owner Chose Kuhio Shores

We have always loved the charm of Kauai - it is truly a magical place. When we began investigating owning a Hawaiian property we knew we wanted a place as close to the water as possible. After looking all over the island we found that Kuhio Shores was indeed unique in that you are practically "in" the water. Walking into our unit many people have commented is like walking onto a boat because all you see is water.

The Unique Benefits at this Condo

We love watching the sun rise from bed, watching turtles swim right below our lanai, walking to the Beach House and swimming right out our door. We also pride ourselves in having everything in the condo for our guests that we want when we travel. Since we do travel quite a bit we know the joys of staying in a well stocked, CLEAN, well maintained property. It is such a disappointment and can certainly taint your entire trip if you choose the wrong property. Please be assured our condo is CLEAN and well maintained. Many of our guests have commented that it is better equipped than their own homes! We hope to make them feel like they are a guest in a luxurious home. We love hearing that their trip was perfect because they stayed in our condo.

A
Spouting Horn

Located within walking distance of the condo, Spouting Horn is a favorite with visitors and locals alike. Observe the ocean surge explode from beneath the lava and rise 40 feet in the air. Also the

B
Prince Kuhio Park

The Park is located directly across the street from the condo. The park has covered picnic tables, pond and memorial to Prince Kuhio along with a great ocean view.

C
Kukui'ula Harbor

Within walking distance is Kukui'ula Harbor. Some whale watching and sunset cruises leave from here. Great picnic spot with covered tables and small beach.

D
Baby Beach

Small beach with sheltered shallow lagoon. Locals usually are here on the weekends with their young childern. Access between two houses via public access walkway. Great spot to sun and relax

E
Beach House Restaurant

Right next door is the famous Beach House Restaurant. Great spot to have dinner and drinks. Watch sunsets from the lawn or snorkel in the adjoining bay. Also there are 2 surf breaks off this point.

F
Beach and Snorkel

Enter at the center of the beach and do not step on the coral. Check out all the fish and enjoy the beach. Also, you can sit on the Beach House lawn and enjoy the view.

G
Turtle Bay

The condo overlooks the bay and turtles are often seen feeding along the shore. Enter the bay at the large rock in the center. Great snorkeling with the turtles as snorkel companies will sometimes u

New shopping center with many restaurants and shops. Easy walk or plenty of parking. Try Merriman's--downstairs is causal dining and upstairs is more upscale.

Outstanding. A true oasis.

Date of Stay: 12/11/11 Review Submitted: 12/27/11

This is an absolutely beautiful condo (the website pictures don't do it justice). Nestled into the south shore it's a true holiday oasis. The condo is gorgeous, tastefully done, and stocked with everything you need for a great vacation (snorkelling equipment, beach chairs/towels, coolers, blender, etc)! The lanai is perfect for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails and the adjacent lagoon has daily visits from sea turtles. A cute beach is a 30 second walk and famous Poipu beach is a mere 5 minute drive. The building and surrounding area is very quiet and serene - my wife and I truly didn't want to leave. The owner (Ken) was excellent to deal with from start to finish. We're a well-travelled couple and would rank this condo right up there with the best

We came to Poipu to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary and our 2 weeks were everything that we hoped for. It was our first visit to Kauai so we depended on the website contents plus previous reviews and we were very pleased with our choice. Turtle watching from the lanai was our favourite occupation and this condo is one of the best locations for this-not too high or too low. We ate in most of the time and found the kitchen to be well equiped and the view while eating is outstanding! Ken and Wanda are great hosts and followed up on a couple of suggestions that we had. We have recommended this condo to everyone that we have met since we returned home and would loved to return there for another visit

Great stay in Poipu!

Guest: Jo (Wilmington, Delaware)
Date of Stay: 02/19/11 Review Submitted: 05/27/11

My husband and I stayed here for a week in February, and had a wonderful experience! The condo is spacious, open and very well-kept, and Ken and Wanda have thought of everything necessary for a pleasant and relaxing stay. The ocean breezes keep the condo cool and comfortable, especially when the shutters between the kitchen and bedroom are open, and there is a coin-operated washer and dryer located right across the hall for guests' use, which is something I always like to have available. We are beach people, and were so happy to see good quality beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels and coolers available for our use. We were also impressed with the good amount (as well the quality) of kitchen items as we generally ate breakfast, lunch and the occasional dinner in. Most mornings we sat on the lanai with our coffee, watching the sea turtles and enjoying the view. We did have quite a bit of rain during our visit, and one day we were excited to see a double rainbow while sitting on the lanai! The condo is very convenient to a multitude of activities (even in the rain), and we were able to walk to Spouting Horn, the Botanical Gardens, the Kukui'ula Village shopping center (with some nice restaurants - Josselin Tapas and Merriman's - and a good farmers' market on Wednesday afternoons) and, of course, the Beach House Restaurant with its expansive lawn for sunset and people watching. The small beach next to the Beach House is one of the best places on Kauai to snorkel - we saw vanloads of snorkelers getting dropped off there every day - and also a good spot to watch surfers when the waves are cooperating. Although there is a perfectly fine, small gourmet grocery store in the Kukui'ula Shopping Center, we did most of our grocery shopping in Koloa at one of the two grocery stores there - also try the Koloa Fish Market for a variety of fresh fish and poke, and the Wine Shop for interesting wines and other goodies. If you have time, we highly recommend a trip to Hanapepe - Fridays are Art Nights and the Hanapepe Cafe serves good food at reasonable prices, as well as the best mango pie ever! We spent an additional week in Hanalei on this trip to Kauai, and have visited Maui and Lanai several times, but we absolutely loved Poipu and Ken and Wanda's condo! We hope to return at some point in the future. Thanks again for a relaxing and memorable visit!

This was really paradise!!

Ocean Front and Beautiful When we opened the door we could not believe the view! The condo is right on the water and you can see the ocean from every room--including the bathroom. This place has been completely remodeled and has a very open floor plan. There are shutters and sliding doors between the bedroom and living room but we just left everything open the entire time. This is perfect for sleeping with gentle trade winds and the sound of the ocean. We have stayed in other condos before where the furnishing and contents look like hand-me-downs---not here. In unit 206 everything is new and upscale. There is a complete kitchen with quality pots, pans, knives, silverware, appliances, blender, micro with built in toaster, kitchen gadgets, etc. The dishes and glasses are also very nice and they even have nice wine and champagne glasses. Could not have been better since they also had the little things--aluminum foil, napkins, sandwich bags, etc that nobody else provides. The furnishings have an Asian influence and are beautiful and very comfortable. The entire wall facing the ocean is floor-to-ceiling glass. The living room also offers a stereo with an Ipad, Ipod, and Iphone charging station plus a Sony flat screen TV. There is also free internet, so no stupid “resort fees” like the hotels charge. The dining table is perfectly located overlooking the ocean. It is higher than normal so that you can easily see over the balcony and handrail. We had breakfast every morning watching the sunrise over the ocean while we savored the local island offerings--papaya, pineapple, local style apple bananas, guavas, and more. Then we would grab a good book and sit on the balcony and watch the giant green sea turtles play in the surf. These guys are huge--18-24” and you can go swim with them from the beach below. There is good snorkeling on each side of the building and a great grass lawn for your beach chair just steps away in front of the Beach House Restaurant. At sunset--this is the place to be! Grab a beverage, bring a chair or sit on the wall and enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean, whales, dolphin, surfers, coastline and sunset--it doesn’t get any better. Some days we never bothered to leave. After just relaxing and enjoying we then explored the island. The condo is centrally located to everything in Poipu and within walking distance to the great restaurants and shopping. We even walked to Spouting Horn and the National Botanical Gardens. There is so

Owner response:We want every guest to have a wonderful experience and enjoy our home. Thank you for your comments and we look forward to your next visit. Mahalo Nui Loa, Ken and Wanda Brent

It's not enough time - after nine days here we realize that it's not enough time to do justice to Kauai. We came over here to get married and had a beautiful ceremony at Polihale Beach. What really topped off the trip for us was your excellent condo with all the amenities and spectacular view. We spent many hours watching the sea turtles, snorkelers and fisherman from the lanai. We really appreciated all the conveniences you provided to us. It made us feel right at home with the benefit of being in Kauai. We look forward to renting your condo again!

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. We have enjoyed these first days of our honeymoon greatly and have both fallen in love with Kauai. Great beaches, great food, great hiking, we could go on and on but being able to come back and relax at your condo sealed the deal! We love the decor, the fresh breeze when we leave the lanai door open, the turtles in the water, and just about everything else. We are sad to be leaving but when we come back to Kauai sometime in the future, we'll definitely put Kuhio Shores 206 at the top of our list. Thank you again

Wow! What can we say? There are no words that truly describe how beautiful your place is. We had a relaxing 7 days in heaven. Loved watching the turtles play in the morning off the lanai while I drank my coffee. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for letting us stay in your home.

Aloha Ken and Wanda, Our stay here on Kauai has been so very wonderful and that is in large part due to your condo...or should we say "our" condo? From the moment we walked in and could hear the waves crashing we knew we'd found a very special spot. Thank you for all the little touches -laundry soap, snorkeling gear, coolers/ice chests - they really helped add to our time here. Watching the turtles, the sunrise, the ocean...all from the lanai - heavenly! Thanks so much - great unit, wonderfully remodeled , fabulous location! We'll be back

Thank you for giving us such a beautiful spot for our vacation. This is the first time in many trips to Kauai that we have stayed in Poipu and it was great. We walked everyday to either Spouting Horn or to Poipu Beach, cooked meals, watched the sunrise from the lanai and the sunset from the lawn and got a little work done (thanks for the wireless - I discovered I could be anywhere in the condo). Most of all, we really appreciated the quality of the condo - we have traveled a lot staying in vacation rentals and really appreciated having nice quality kitchen and bath items, great pots and pans and towels and love those metal bowls (where did you get them?) and fabulous beach chairs and fins (that fit me perfectly)! It really makes a difference to be in a place where care is taken to have a nice environment and quality stuff. Thank you!
