Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1999
Why the Owner Chose Kuhio Shores
Absolutely 100% all ocean...all the time. These condos are the absolute closest to the water in all of Kauai. RIGHT on the beach or ocean front with 200 to 300 degree ocean views depending on the condo. Any closer and you would need fins....
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Each condo has it's own special feel and benefits....Surfers love Kuhio Shores #119 where they can surf right outside their back door....Honeymoners love #418 The Penthouse for 100% privacy and the best views on the Island bar none....Kuhio Shores is right on the ocean front....Something for everybody!
Owner's Map of Kuhio Shores
Janis and I fell in love with Kauai in the early 90's and purchased our first condo there in 1999. We believe this Island is truly a special tropical oasis...away from the hustle and bustle of the neighboring Islands. Kauai is like going back to Mayberry in the 50's...everybody knows your name....
These condos are our extended families "homes" and not primarily rentals. They are equipped as every good home should be...so there is no "used rental property" feel to them. Everything is new, or near new...and they will exceed your every reasonable expectation. Janis takes great pride in making sure cutlery matches and is sharp, pots and pans are in as new condition, plates and glassware match etc/etc/etc. A million details that only an owner would attend to. Pillow are replace bi-monthly, linens and towels are thick and soft, and not worn out and threadbare. 300 thread count sheets and new/fresh bath and beach towels are provided.

When contemplating where to spend Christmas with our family, only one place came to mind. The Penthouse at Kuhio Shores! This is our second stay in this beautiful condo and I can assure that it won't be our last. We have stayed in 3 other condos on property and this is by far the best..., HANDS DOWN. The owners, John and Janis, go above and beyond to accommodate their guests, even having installed a personal washer and dryer for convenience. The cross breeze throughout the unit is amazing and the peaceful sound of the waves can be heard from both bedrooms, rocking you to sleep each night. And being able to watch whales and turtles each day and the incredible sunsets each night right from the lanai...welllll...can it get any better than that??? We can't wait to return for our third stay in The Penthouse! I'm already planning!!!
Owner response:Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review....See you folks again next year! John and janis Zihla

The owners were quite informative and responsive to all of our emails; making it a pleasure to plan our trip. This condo was just like it was pictured! The views were wonderful. Everything was in great working condition. Every morning we could watch the turtles swim, saw a pod of dolphins and a group of spotted rays. My sons snorkeled at least three times a day because it was so conveniently located to a perfect snorkeling area. The kitchen was equipped with everything we could have needed to make some great meals. Every night the waves lulled us to sleep. It's conveniently located to lots of shopping, attractions, restaurants and groceries. We would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a comfortable high quality condo in a terrific area. We're trying to figure out when we can go again to this marvelous condo.

I consider myself a professional when it comes to Kauai. I have stayed nearly everywhere on the island and can't say there is somewhere I prefer than Kuhio Shores beach front. The views, breeze and accomodations are perfect and I enjoy myself beyond expectation every time I stay here. Thanks to John and Janis for the considerations and for the fully equipped unit. I was able to cook a full Thankgiving dinner with everything they provided in the kitchen. We had the best birthday weekend ever.

Wonderful Condo at Kuhio Shores

Review Submitted: 11/16/11
My family and I stayed here in August and loved both the condo and the location. We really could hear the surf and it was so nice to sit out back and read or watch the surfers from the lanai. The first floor location was great for us though we could hear some parking lot conversations at night and ended up closing the windows on that side. The condo is clean and well-kept, well-decorated, and simply a pleasure to spend time in. We appreciated having a fully-equipped kitchen and ceiling fans throughout. I highly recommend John and Janis and their condos. J&J were easy to work with and their place was great!
Owner response:Thanks so much for your review! We hope to see you again next year!... John and janis Zihla

John and Janis, Just wanted to thank you for sharing your wonderful vacation home with us. The entire family had such a great time. We have stayed at Kuhio Shores a number of times both in one bedroom and two bedroom units but yours by far is the nicest we have stayed in and will be our number one choice from now on! Not only were the views fabulous but the layout of the condo perfect for our family. I don't think there was anything else we could have asked for. The beds were so comfortable, the kitchens had great cookware, dishes and even a crockpot. There was so much beach gear there.... sand toys for the kids, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, chairs, coolers and a beach umbrella. The added fans came in handy and I think we ate most meals on your nice lanai table. It was paradise, the only downside was that we had to come home. We already miss going to sleep and waking up to the waves, views and most mornings we even had rainbows. Thanks again for sharing your place and being so easy to work with making reservations! Hope to able to go back again soon. Lauri and Family!

Hi John and Janis. Your condo is really great and very well kept, we enjoyed it immensely! Thanks for the champagne, what a nice touch... It was very hot when we were there and we used every single fan...REALLY appreciated those:) Our group had 10-15 of the condos and we loved it. We were able to video the entire ceremony of our daughter's wedding at the Beach House lawn from you condo. It was actually pretty funny....the bridal party watched from 418 to see when everyone sat down for the ceremony so we knew when to go over, and no one was there because they were all at 119 on the lawn. We called down from the balcony to go over and sit so we could start the ceremony! The reception was at Joe's On The Green, and they were outstanding. We loved Kauai, the turtles and you condo. What memories...Thank you! I will try to get something posted on tripadvisor, it's my #1 resource. Mahalo. Cathy

Dear Janis, We want to let you know what a marvelous time we had in Kauai and what a beautiful comfortable condo you have. It couldn't have been more perfect. It was such a treat being on the corner where we (discretely) witnessed four weddings at the restaurant next door as well as beautiful sunrises & sunsets and the sound of the constant sound of the ocean. I have already recommended your condo to friends. Thank you again, Kelly
