Poipu Villa Vista is a "Multi-Million Dollar" custom designed five bedroom, three bathroom home that is set on the rim of a dormant crater. Upon your arrival you will know that you are "Somewhere Special". The lushly landscaped grounds include orchids, tropical plants, banana and palm trees which greet you swaying in the gentle breezes.
Travel+Leisure Magazine 2008 rates Island of Kauai #3 of top 10 overall islands in the world.
Step inside this tropically appointed home and fresh orchid plants catch your eye and draw your gaze to a 40 foot wall of glass paneled mahogany doors which lead out into your very own private tropical garden with a lava rock sunken spa and pond with a walkway that winds you through a rainbow of colored tropical flowers and palms.
Drift off to the sound of cascading waters that splash into the lava rock pond with water lilies floating atop while you observe the array of tropical birds that fly and perch in and out of the private garden. Or you may enjoy the spa after a round of golf or tennis or in the evening while you gaze up at the stars and planets. Your very own private retreat!
The front of the home boasts panoramic views ranging from ocean, mountain, crater, and golf course (17th hole PGA course) which are fully enjoyed out the huge view windows or step out onto the immense wrap around and fully tiled lanai where a spectacular daily sunrise may be enjoyed. Views of Shipwreck Beach and Whale watching during season!
Large glass paneled mahogany doors fold up allowing the outdoors in. Cushioned teak furniture invites you to sun on the deck or the covered area of the lanai provides a protected sitting and eating area or just snuggle up to your favorite book with a place to set your tropical drink or glass of wine.
When you finally make your way back indoors you will find it tastefully appointed in an Asian/Bali design reflecting style and grace w/natural bamboo and quartzite flooring and a Hawaiian open and spacious floor plan. A custom gourmet kitchen with an island and granite countertops over red oak cabinets and breakfast bar seating for four persons. The dining area has seating for up to 10 persons at a formal but relaxed setting. Special sconces and lighting can be dimmed and adjusted to set the mood.
Enjoy the garden from inside the home lounging on hand carved teak seating areas accented with pillows and cushions with your comfort in mind. The incredible design literally brings the outdoors inside. Kauai’s peaceful atmosphere is experienced throughout the home.
The large living room has natural bamboo floors and is situated on the other end of the home with two exits to the spacious wrap around lanai where the panoramic views are ever changing and enjoyed - you may listen to CDs/your IPOD or watch a movie or sporting event on 42" PLASMA HDTV Home Theater system w/surround sound stereo speakers.
Comfortable seating with a large well cushioned couch, love seat, upholstered chairs and ottoman and auxiliary chair with plenty of cushy pillows. There is a custom "Tommy Bahama" rug with a Hawaiian print that adds warmth to the seating area.

This unit is ideal for persons having trouble climbing steps since it is on the grade level.

Thank you for a awesome week. The house is beautiful. We enjoyed viewing the whales from the lanai. The openness of the house and we really appreciated the extra necessities provided. We highly recommend the Beach House to eat at sunset. We enjoyed the Puka Dog several times. We snorkeled, sat on the beach, visited the canyon, Princeville, various water falls, Botanical gardens- all are breath taking. Could have stayed a few more days just to relax! Thank you for being available for questions and for the most helpful binder!

Breath taking, relaxing, fun, exciting, magnificent, warm and friendly people- there are not enough words to describe the relaxing and enjoyable time we had!! Each day would start with the spouts of water being seen off the lanai form the whales. The view of the mountains and who could not mention the crater. The day would continue with the unbelievable views of the ocean as wekk as close ups of the monk seals. Each place we ate at was delicious! Don't forget to look up at the magnificent stars in the evening. We can't wait to come back! Thank you our "Dear friend" for a most memorable time away.
