Well Maintained & Upgraded:
Maintenance starts with detailed Housecleaning. Our Housekeeper provides each Guest with a thoroughly cleaned Condo. She also cleans all Windows before each Guest arrives, which is not normally done by other owners. Every 3 months Doug & I live in the Condo, maintain & upgrade items. It is then rented for 3 months and the cycle repeats itself. It is treated like a Home, not just a rental. We strive to repair items before they break and to replace major items frequently. Previous Guest reviews notice and praise the cleanliness & care of the Condo.

Your dream honeymoon/vacation in Paradise awaits you. Just email your reservation request---we will promptly get back to you. Your Hawaiian experience is just a click away. Reserve your spot today!

Perfect spot in Poipu!

This place was a perfect spot for our 5th Wedding Anniversary. Every morning eating breakfast on the Lanai, listening to the waves at night. This condo was in a quiet spot with access to shopping, restaurants, and multiple beaches. We often sat down with crowd in front of the condo building watching the surfers and seeing the sun set. We had 0 problems during our stay and can’t wait to come back and stay again.
Right from the Lanai. Perfect views
Right next to the beach house, couple steps away from the condo.

Ocean Paradise

The view from the lanai was spectacular. We really enjoyed listening to the sound of the ocean outside and inside this well maintained condo. The owners are wonderful to work with and are more than accommodating. The microwave happened to “die” during our stay. We sent an email to inform the owners and they made sure we had a new one the next afternoon! We highly recommend this condo for a wonderful stay.
