Poipu Beach, Kauai - Excellent Location - New 4 Bedroom House!

VRBO Bear stayed here:

This home was uniquely architected by the owner’s father to take full advantage of the incredible ocean views. You can hear the waves crashing upon the shore from every room throughout the home. The open living room features lots of windows and a large seating capacity to comfortably admire the awe-inspiring surroundings.

Whether you’re traveling as a bear family of four or with a larger group, this home features four bedrooms to accommodate eight guests. The three full bathrooms gave everyone in our group privacy they needed in the mornings while getting ready.

If you’re traveling with a gourmet chef bear or simply someone who has a passion for cooking, the fully-equipped kitchen has everything you’d need. The large table and benches made of “monkeypod” wood in the spacious dining area were perfect for entertaining during the evenings we opted to dine in. Plus, the outdoor gas grill was great for cooking up a Hawaiian-style BBQ.

The beauty of this home is evident inside and out. Both the lanai and luxurious hot tub on the deck overlook the blue Pacific Ocean. After an active day of sightseeing, this bear relaxed in the hot tub which had a soothing underwater light show with changing colors. The beautiful landscaped yard lush with tropical flowers featured a refreshing outdoor shower. It was perfect after a long soak in the hot tub or a swim in the ocean.

Did I mention this home is located just a stone’s throw away from the beach? While playing at the beach, VRBO’s bear friends saw sea turtles and dolphins! The home is also in close proximity to fine and casual dining, golf, shopping, snorkeling, etc. Just a block away from the home we discovered “Brenecke’s”, one of our favorite restaurants on the island!

Kauai, the “garden island” is not as touristy as some of the other Hawaiian Islands yet there are so many attractions to see! We enjoyed a train ride around the sugar cane plantation, a bird-eye’s view of the island by helicopter, a round of golf at the Kiahuna Golf Course and an evening luau.

The VRBO bear and his friends loved their stay at Hale Hali'a and hope to make our Hawaii vacation a tradition for years to come!

Aloha and Mahalo,
The VRBO Bear

  This home was ideal and a great place to gather after a day on the beautiful beaches of Poipu!! You could see the ocean from virtually every spot in the main floor and hear the waves. The beach was a stones throw from the door and we could see whales and dolphins daily. We would gladly return again and stay in this gorgeous property!!

  This Beach house was perfectly located in front of Brennecke beach with Poipu Park/ Beach right attached to this. Awesome open concept with an attached lanai to watch Whales/ Turtles/ Body boarders while dining or hanging out. The owner lives a stones throw away and more than eager to help with any quirks with the house. Brenneckes restaurant/ Bar is 1 block away, and there was a great pathway system to take a stroll to Shipwreck beach and hiking trails. Awesome snorkling right off of the tip of Poipu beach and Surfing right there too. A perfect house and would book again in a heartbeat. Basically if you wanted to walk out the door barefoot, it could easily be done with so many things to do right there.

  The only thing we could possibly say negatively was that we had sand on the bottoms of our feet sometimes. The house has a very unique floor plan that is designed perfectly for the lot it is on and facing the ocean the way it does. It flows perfectly for our three families. The kitchen was first class. You can cook on the six burner gas stove while looking out over the beach or watching TV. The two sinks make prep work and clean up a breeze. With the windows open the tropical breeze comes right through or if the windows are closed it is as tight as a drum. The down stairs bathroom is shared by two bedrooms but is very workable. The sunroom overlooking the beach and road was a favorite. It is a quiet road so very easy to cross to get to the beach which is used by visitors and locals alike. Lots of turtles and whales to look for. Yoga is right across the street on Tues, Thurs and Saturdays at 9 am.

  We recently returned from a family gathering celebrating my 70th birthday. Attending were my husband and myself, two sons and wives and two grandchildren ages 7 and 11. The Hale Halia was the perfect location for us. We enjoyed being across the street from the beach, listening to the sound of the waves, and watching the world pass by from the screened veranda. While swimming, my granddaughter came close to a sea turtle and on another day we watched a young monk seal scramble up on the beach. The location is convenient for walking pathways through landscaped and bird-filled areas. The common area in the house is large with plenty of comfortable seating, and the dining table allowed for our group of 8 to eat together. The washer, dryer and dishwasher were used often and greatly appreciated. There were plenty of towels, a well equipped kitchen, and many beach toys. We had nice weather, but there were no games, puzzles or books for those possible occasional rainy days. Our few requests were quidkly attended to by the friendly and helpful management staff. Our welcome bouquet of tropical flowers completed the island decor. Everyone agreed that this was a special time together and the Hale Halia provided a fantastic setting.

  Truly wonderful! Very clean, spacious family/living room connects to lanai looking over the beach and ocean. We saw turtles and dolphins almost every day. 4 bedrooms and a great kitchen with oversized fridge and 2 sinks. Literally 30 steps to the beach. Great restaurant/bar 2 blocks away. Markets are a 5 min drive. We had a fantastic stay. Highly recommend.

  We had a four generation vacation and the house met all of our needs. It's big enough that everyone has their own space, but still intimate enough to hang out, cook, visit and enjoy the beautiful views together. It was everything it was advertised as..and more. The owner lives close by and was on hand when we had a couple of questions. Had a great visit....would highly recommend this house.
