Bird of Paradise home is located in Beach Resort at Poipu Kai, Kauai, Hawaii. The colorful tropical flowers of the hillside and dozens of bird of paradise flowers greet you upon your arrival. Step inside the expansive living area connected to the lanai and you are surrounded by large picture windows framing swaying coconuts and green mountains, you'll know you are in a tropical paradise.

The L shaped design of the home and the huge wraparound lanai encourages relaxing and absorbing the sunshine and the gorgeous views. This private home has two master bedroom suites and two other bedrooms. The King master suite is in the main house and another Bungalow suite is detached from the main house.

The home is set up on two levels with very private bedrooms making it perfect for a large family or two small families with wireless internet throughout. All of the Resort amenities including the use of the resort swimming pool, Jacuzzi and nine soft and hard tennis court for guests.

You are only a 5-10 minute walk away, through the lush green belts of the resort, Poipu Kai, from the Poipu and Shipwreck beaches and The Poipu Bay golf course, home of the PGA Grand Slam.

Our guest comment about Bird of Paradise-Poipu vacation home:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
A perfect vacation home. Private, yet friendly, Views to die for, Cool, Classy, Comfortable. Will be back on our next visit to Kauai.
Ben & Betty Valentine, Prescott, AZ

What a beautiful house! We loved the spectacular view and location that was close to everything. The house is about equal distance to two of the best beaches on the South shore and made for an enjoyable walk. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We had more than enough room for a party of seven and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We would definitely recommend and hope to return some day. Thanks!!!!

Luxury Home with Mountain/Ocean/Golf Views! Ac, Pool/Spa

Year Purchased: 1992

Why the Owner Chose Poipu Kai

After looking at all the other Hawaiian islands ( excluding Molokai) it became obvious to us Kauai was by far the most beautiful and had the most friendly locals. We like water sports, windsurfing, kayaking, snorkeling etc. and we also liked the green lace like mountains of Kauai. Poipu had both great mountain views, some of the best beaches on the island and great snorkeling and easy access to Mahalepu our favorite beach for windsurfing. Our house has panoramic 270 degree views of the beautiful Hau'pu and Waimea mountain ranges great views of the sunrise in the morning. Our house is on the shoulder of the last active crater on Kauai and because of its high location nothing blocks this spectacular views!

The Unique Benefits at this Kauai luxury rental home

This Bird of Paradise home is in a very good location. We love walking to the shipwreck beach in the morning to watch the sunrise and some days we walk to Poipu Beach (toward west) to watch the sunset. The home is in Poipu Kai resort which stretches from the shipwreck beach to the Poipu Beach Park with pleasant walking paths and scenic greenbelts. The resort also has a large pool and spa whichour son likes a lot. Most of all we love the spectacular 270 degree views. We love to be on the front lanai watching the changing shades of green on the mountains with the sun and the stars at night. We also love to eat outdoors on the covered lanai listening to the chirping birds some of whom come to ask for food.

Owner's Map of Poipu Kai

We are a family of four. Erdogan, Ning, Deniz and Bora Gulari. We live in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Erdogan is a professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ning is a research engineer in the Electrical Engineering department. Bora is a graduate of the Aerospace Engineering Department and is a very accomplished sailor and currently spends most of his time sailing big boats. Deniz is a 6th grader full of curiosity.

We all live by "be honest, work hard, play hard and enjoy life" Erdogan bought this Bird of Paradise Home in June 1992, a few months before the hurricane Iniki hit Kauai on September 11, 1992. At the time he was also the association president for the Makanui Condo Association and he came to the Island with the first flights from the mainland, bringing a generator along to power several of the neighboring homes. He also brought lots of tarpaulin (some of which you may still see in the garage) to distribute to neighbors and use in covering holes in the roof which we and the neighbors did get. We are planning to live in this home when we retire so we take care of it the best way we can and put all our effort and labor of love into it. We enjoy our vacations in Kauai and love to share the same experiences with you.

We started managing Bird of Paradise home and Hawaiian Hibiscus vacation rental home ourselves with the help of Kay & Bill Oldham, in May 2006. Before that the home was managed by a well-known management company with a nightly rate of $400-450* in 2005. We decided to take control after we found out that our management company actually charged 10-15% extra for our return guests who wanted to come back to Bird of Paradise home.

We value our guests very much and want to remain friends and share our love of Kauai with them. We are pleased to offer our high quality home to Kauai lovers at an affordable rental rate.

Mahalo and enjoy our Beautiful Kauai Island

    • This was an amazing vacation from the very start. Even before we left I was able to speak with Ning about the home and the area. She had some great suggestions about different activities and restaurants. The home was fantastic. It was way more room than we needed. The highlight of the home for us was the wrap-around lanai. I was nice to just sit outside and relax in the bright sun and refreshing trade winds. The amenities in the home were also outstanding. We especially enjoyed all the beach gear and the wireless internet service, both of which we were not expecting. The location was perfect. It was a short 5 min walk to Shipwreck Beach and the Hyatt hotel. The pool and tennis courts that are a part of the resort community were also very close. Poipu Beach is also within walking distance, but a bit further (we often took the rental car there). There are also many restaurants in the area. Renting a car in Kauai is a must if you want to see the whole island, and the Bird of Paradise home was a perfect "home base" for our vacation. It was close to many of the thing we wanted to see and do and the Poipu area was just beautiful. Kauai Must Do: - Helicopter tour of the island. - Day at Poipu Beach. - Drive up to Waimea Cannon. - Hike the first 2 miles of the Kalalau Trail. (this can be strenuous) This was by far the best vacation we have taken. Kauai, Poipu, and the Bird of Paradise home offer everything from stunningly beautiful adventures to serene relaxation. Whatever your ideal vacation is you will find it here. Thank you Ning for a trip we will never forget!

    • Aloha Ning, Thank you for sharing your lovely home on our recent family vacation. We were a group of 8 adults and 3 children ages 1, 2, and 4. We appreciated the items you provided to accommodate our young children. Your home exceeded our expectations. The views were spectacular. We were so comfortable in your very spacious home. Everything we needed for our week long stay was provided. Upon returning to Kauai we would not hesitate to stay in your home again. Mahalo Ning. The Cortelyou family.

    • Hi Ning, Our family had a wonderful time on Kauai, much of that due to the wonderful Bird of Paradise home. The house was clean and spacious, the views were awesome and the kids loved the extras (snorkels, boogie boards, games, books, TV's etc). Thanks for sharing your home with us. The Webers

    • Beautiful Bird of Paradise! We have just returned from a 2 week holiday in Kauai. We found "Bird of Paradise" by going to vacation home rentals available in Poipu and couldn't have been happier with our choice. The house is beautiful. Well stocked, complete with beach towels, snorkel gear, boogie boards and beach chairs. The laundry room was great for the 8 of us as it is equipped with 2 washers and 2 dryers. The kitchen was well equipped as well, complete with lots of pots and pans, dishes, cutlery and even a waffle iron. (makes excellent waffles :) The bedrooms were cozy, lots of closet space. The suite away from the main house was great! My daughter and grandaughter stayed there and they had there own entrance, frige,microwave and t.v. Nice and private for earlier bedtimes. Ning Gulari was awesome at communicating months before our trip. She always returned e-mails promptly. We were also happy with our security deposit refund. Received it via pay-pal before our bags were unpacked. The home is spacious, clean and is in an excellent neighbourhood. Close to beaches, pool and even a small shopping mall. We treated it like we would our own home and would not hesitate to recommend it anyone. For anyone lucky enough to be heading to Kauai with a larger group this is a great home to stay in. Mahalo Ning!

    • The Bird of Paradise home was a great place to stay and I would stay again without hesitation. We had a group of 6 (three couples) and we were all very pleased with the home when we arrived. The home and amenities are very acurately portrayed on the website, and even exceeded our expectations. The house was very well equipped and maintained, and the on island manager is very friendly and available. We look forward to being able to plan another vacation at the Bird of Paradise Home!

    • ALOHA, We had a fabulous time in KAUAI and especially staying at the Bird of Paradise Home. We had been planning this family reunion vacation for 2 years, and with Ning's help, things went very smoothly. My 3 yr old niece couldn't stop talking about 'THE BIG HOUSE" she just loved it! We felt at home and comfortable, everything was available and felt just like a home away from home. We had 3 families coming from different cities/countries and Ning was able to communicate and accommodate all of our needs! I truly appreciate it! I recommend it to anyone and everyone! Kauai was the best vacation/ birthday celebration I have ever had, and look forward to coming back!
