This is a spacious (1300 square feet) ground level, three bedroom, two full bathrooms, ocean view condominium, in the very popular, upscale Makahuena Resort located in the center of Poipu. It's size and internal layout (all on one level)provides spacious comfort for as many as 8 but works perfectly well and is priced for smaller groups. You may want to invite your family or friends to join you (and share the cost) as they will be comfortable too. Check our monthly rates (as low as $3,600) as we encourage longer stays. Additional discounts for rentals longer than 1 month.

The resort complex sits on a cliff overlooking the ocean providing an unforgetable view and experience. You can view both sunrise and sunset from the site 'Point' a few steps from our lanai where the sound of the ocean and it's spray is breathtaking. You will probably spend many morning with your coffee watching the sunrise and many early evenings with your drink watching the sun drop into the blue pacific while you watch a whale show November to March. You will be joined at 'the point' by friendly neighbors.

The Makahuena is in the center of the Poipu golf world including being walking distance from Poipu Bay, former site of the Grand Slam of golf. The Makahuena contains it's own tennis facility (a rare commodity in Poipu condo complexes) bringing that sport steps from our unit. A basketball hoop has been recently installed, making that sport available also. Father/son/daughter games of 'horse' seem to be the norm.

Top rated sandy beaches that provide sunbathing and surfing are less than a ten minute walk to the east (Shipwreck Beach) and a 7 minute walk to the west to the famous Poipu Beach. Poipu Beach has a breakwater that provides protected beaches for toddlers and calm waters for snorklers where the fish watching is amazing.

The floor plan is all contained on one level eliminating the need to climb stairs to bedrooms or second bathrooms. Our seniors especially appreciate this convenience but everybody loves it. Additionally, the ground level location allows step free access to the impeccably maintained grounds, pool, spa, barbecue, view point, and other entertainment areas.

The master suite is a large bedroom containing a new Simmons Beautyrest California king bed. It has it's own bathroom which contains two large counters (his and hers) instead of the usual one. This bedroom opens directly to the lanai providing it's own ocean view and instant access to the grounds and all it's features.

The second large bedroom also has a California king bed and both of these bedrooms have their own televisions. The third bedroom is smaller, but large enough to contain two brand new plush full-size beds. If this bedroom is not needed it makes an excellent location to store luggage and golf clubs. The unit also includes 2 tri-fold twin size matresses to handle overflow sleeping needs.

A summary of the sleeping arrangements in the bedrooms is as follows:

1. Primary Master Suite - California King Bed and full bathroom with his and her's counters.

2. Master Suite 2 - California King Bed with a full bathroom in adjacent room.

3. Bedroom 3 - Two New Double Beds and location (in closet) of 2 fold out matresses for
overflow.


The unit has been recently redecorated including new furniture and beautiful tile and paint. All three bedrooms have been recently recarpeted and new drapes were installed at that time. A new large refrigerator is perfect for storing a large quanty of items.

The unit has a HIGH SPEED INTERNET CONNECTION with a wireless router, making web contact by WiFi especially convenient. A high definition television was installed in December 2007 and the unit is now 'ipod friendly' with a docking station containing Bose speakers. Our condo provides a HD input so all your favorite shows will be in HD. Most condos provide a flat panel TV now, but do not provide HD programming.

Poipu Beach is Kauai's most desirable area and was recently rated the #1 beach in all of America. The number of sunny days in Poipu greatly exceeds those at the other end of the island, Princeville. That's why it is known as 'sunny Poipu'.

You will love your stay at the Makahuena and in particular in this condominium. The unit is easily large enough for two couples to share with adequate privacy. There are three televisions and two DVDs to keep the kids entertained in a separate room remote from adult conversation.

                        Jim, Thank you so much for making your wonderful condo available to rent. Kauai and your condo exceeded our expectations. The condo was very spacious, comfortable and relaxing, we did not want to leave. The view from the condo grounds was amazing. My sister rented a 2 bdr.2 bath condo closer to Poipu beach without a Pool or Hottub and paid over $100 more a night then we did. The one thing that they had that we didn't, the Roosters waking them up at 5 am every morning. We are already planning our return trip. Mahola, Janna

                        The unit is spacious, and perfectly comfortable for families. We really enjoyed watching the birds that were being fed by a neighbor, visiting with a friendly cat and seeing the ocean from the ground level lanai. We definitely hope to return!

                        This was our second visit to the island and we stayed for a month each time in this condo . The condo is ideally located for all activities around the Poipu area and we especially enjoyed the ocean view and magnificent sunsets from the lanai. This time we were there in January and February and the humpbacks put on a great show for us. The turtles were also plentiful and easily visible The management at the Makahuena and the owner are very helpful.with tips on what to do and see and where to eat We would recommend this condo

                        My family and myself enjoyed our stay. Condo is near to all the sites and shopping and was as stated in the ad. Quite and very clean. The owner sent me extra information as to where his family liked to eat and sites to see. The sound of the ocean hitting the cliff at night was very relaxing and helped us sleep The condo had all you need to fix meals. We had a great time. You need to go down two landings to get to the door. Not recommended for wheel chair.

                        We really enjoyed being in a small complex. It felt homey and friendly. We usually had the pool to ourselves or were with one other family. Walking out to see the sunset every night was a huge highlight as well as being so close to the ocean and the pounding waves on the shore. We loved going exploring along the coast right next to the property. There was a secret pathway from the parking lot that we found. The condo was comfortable and suited our needs. The location was superb. Thank you.

                        Had a lovely week long stay at the condo in November. The accommodation has everything you need and then some. It was clean, large and nicely decorated. The complex is well-maintained and the staff there are very friendly and helpful. Great pool, jacuzzi and view of the ocean. Easy access to Shipwreck Peach and a few minutes drive into Poipu.

                        This condo made our time in Kauai perfect! It was in a great location near beaches & great restaurants. We felt centrally located to do daytrips to the North shore & to Waimea Canyon. The property was as described. With 7 of us staying there, we were all comfortable with plenty of living space. It was stocked with everything we needed to cook any or all of our meals there. It was very kid friendly (down to plastic drinking tumblers for the kids & swim noodles for the pool!) With 3 boys aged 6 & under, it made life easy! They loved having the pool right outside the lanai & yet we were close to Poipu beach (walking or quick drive, easy parking) for swimming and awesome snorkeling & boogie/body boarding (plus shaved ice at Brennecke's!) The condo has 3 TV's which was nice for winding down in the evening...kids could watch 1, grandma & grandpa on another, etc. We walked down to the "point" (just steps from the condo) everyday to see the sea turtles come up & eat off the rocks. The owner provided answers to any questions we had leading up to the vacation & the property managment was great on-site. My family was thrilled & we can honestly say this wouldn't have been such a perfect vacation if it wasn't for this amazing condo & it's location, amenities, etc! We look forward to doing again soon & would use this property again. Thank you!!

                        Our trip to Kauai was the best vacation we've ever been on. The condo worked out great for our group and the pool, jacuzzi and grounds were very well kept and clean. We enjoyed the view at both sunrise and sunset, and loved listening to the waves crash against the rocky cliffs. The location was great and we could walk to Shipwreck Beach in one direction and the Poipu Beaches in the other direction. The helicopter ride was breathtaking, and we also snorkeled, hiked the Nai Pali coast, went paddle boarding and kayaking and attended a luau. We definitely plan on coming back in the near future!

                      Year Purchased: 1994

                      About the owner: My wife and I purchased our condo a few years after Hurricane Iniki and have taken great pride in restoring this treasure to a level that allows ourselves and all who use it, to enjoy there stay in Kauai to the fullest. Everything has been replaced or restored. The beds and furniture are new and extremely confortable and the floors have been tiled or recarpeted. The walls were repainted in June 2010 and a large mirror installed over the couch at the same time appears to bring the ocean into that room. It's amazing! We would love to have you stay in our place. Our referrals speak volumes. Jim and Lea Heckman Tucson, Arizona and Port Angeles, Washington.

                      Why the Owner Chose Makahuena:
                      We have traveled all over the Hawaiian islands and nothing compares with Poipu beach. Although Poipu is remote and quiet compared to the much more populated Mauai and Oahu, it still has every thing needed for a memorable vacation in Hawaii.

                      The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
                      After exploring all the Hawaiian islands for many years we decided there are none that compare to the Poipu area of Kauai. The beaches, golf courses, restaurants, trails and just peace and quiet if you want it, are the best.
