Perfect for Honeymoons:
We could not have imagined a more perfect place for our honeymoon. We loved waking up each morning and sitting on the lanai drinking tea and coffee and watching the waves and turtles. The cottage was so comfortable, we loved everything about it. Thanks!

This was a great place to spend our honeymoon! Quiet, peaceful and thoroughly delightful. The turtles were grand to watch. Thanks for the wonderful time

What a place for our honeymoon! Listening to the surf, watching the turtles and taking in the morning sun and the monn-lit nights form the lanai. The outdoor shower was a treat not to be missed. Thank you!

Few places on the planet can offer the natural spectacle of our Oceanfront Honeymoon Cottage. From its lanai, or decks, the endangered Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles can be seen daily swimming into the cove at Koloa Landing. The uniqueness of our home's location offers the experience of daily, undisturbed viewing of turtles in their natural environment. It is the ultimate in Luxury Ecotourism, a Perfect Observation Platform for the Nature Enthusiast.
What a lovely vacation retreat! We enjoyed every aspect - from the mating turtles in the cove, to the well appointed interior design (what perfect artwork!), to the convenient location. This is a wonderful place for relaxation and Kauai a magical isle full of hidden treasures. Thank you!

Our two-story Poipu Cove Home was recently remodeled by Kauai designer James Parsonson and is now complete with a spacious master suite featuring an oceanfront King bed and fine linens, comfortable custom furnishings, Hawaiian artwork and wood floors and two lovely bathrooms. Two 42" HD TV with HD Channels including HBO, DVD Player, wireless internet and a Bose wave radio and CD player.
An expanded oceanfront deck with comfortable lounge chairs and a private, tropical outdoor shower are just two additional features to our lovely honeymoon cottage.
There are spectacular views from the two oceanfront lanai (decks). The sun deck, overlooking the front tropical garden and its outdoor dining area and a Weber gas barbecue, is a great spot for smokers.
Our Poipu Cove Home is now gated and is located around the corner from pretty Baby Beach and near three other white sand beaches, dive, snorkel and surf spots, fine restaurants and two golf courses.
Aloha! We loved your cottage. The furnishings and decor were lovely and comfortable. The location on the Island was perfect for getting around. Watching the turtles and seals in the cove was our favorite part. We enjoyed exploring the island and hanging around on different beaches, but we liked this location and the cove the best. Mahalo.

We loved the cottage. Very comfortable and breezy. The outdoor shower was a definite bonus. We enjoyed the comfortable furnitures and thoughtful amenities. It was very relaxing to start the day on the patio as well as to finish the day watching the turtles in the cove. I believe we will come back again some day.

Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
We purchased our first property on Kauai in 1980. We came to appreciate the beauty and tranquility of Poipu's exclusive Baby Beach neighborhood in 1999. We purchased our Oceanfront Honeymoon Cottage because it is twenty feet to the water and overlooks a turtle sanctuary here in the Baby Beach neighborhood. Huge Hawaiian sea turtles hang out in the cove everyday. Simply spectacular. We remodeled the cottage, expanding the oceanfront lanai (deck) and adding a private tropical outdoor shower. We gated the property and created a tropical flower garden and dining area, complete with a Weber gas BBQ. We furnished the cottage with our signature Simmons beautyrest king beds and fine linens, custom furnishings and fun artwork.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We enjoy relaxing to the soothing sound of the surf on the oceanfront lanai, cooling trade winds blowing, watching the turtles, fish, monk seals, whales, and birds. We love to stroll around the corner to watch the sun set into the Pacific at Baby Beach. We walk to the Beach House and watch the surfers catch waves while enjoying cocktails and pupus or dinner, and then check out the stars on our walk home. The starry nights are incredible here on the south shore. We enjoy walking along the coast to the Sheraton end of Poipu Beach, our favorite spot for swimming because there are showers to rinse off the salt water. The Sheraton Kauai welcomes you to their snack bar and poolside bar. We also enjoy the short walk to Kukuiula Market to pick up fresh fish, vegetables and to choose from their ever-expanding organic food section.
