We enjoyed our stay. The view is not a full ocean view, but it overlooks the grounds and the pool entrance which gives you a feeling of belonging to the community. We really did love sitting on the veranda. We were there for hurricane Lala and the condo maintenance was on top of clean-up. Communication with the condo unit management company was efficient.

Kitchen had everything we needed. We did not stop at the store first and I’m glad we didn’t! Some of the things we would have bought were already there like paper towels, hand soap, dish soap. We left coffee filters and tide pods for the next family as well. The view is very peaceful and exactly what the picture show. We enjoyed our time here in Kauai and this location was perfect to exploring the entire island! Mahalo!
Saw a couple whales which is rare this late in the season-first week of May!

The condo was even better than in the pictures! Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pots and pans. We were able to walk to the Grand Hyatt on the path by the ocean and to Poipu Beach. Both were about a 10 minute walk. The snorkeling at Poipu Beach was amazing and the turtles and monk seals on the beach were so much fun to see. Saw whales spouting from the property. There was an issue with water in the unit below us and they needed access to our condo for a short bit, but it was well communicated and handled without interrupting our day. We will definitely book here again!

This unit was wonderful, and the location was great! A public beach access was right next door that you could walk out on the rocks and watch the sunrise. It was just a short half mile walk to Poipu Beach to watch the sunset. The unit had everything you could need. Beach supplies were awesome, although flippers for the snorkel gear would have been a plus. We would definitely go back!

About the host

Hosted by Rodney Bughao

Host profile image
Karen and I have been married over 35 years. We have three children, 5 grandchildren and enjoy traveling whenever we can.

Why they chose this property

Kauai has always held a special place in our hearts. Having lived in Koloa in the early 1970's, Poipu Beach is like home. Kauai holds very special memories for Karen and me. Our honeymoon was on Kauai where we enjoyed hiking in the Waimea Canyon. Many of my cousins still call Kauai home. "The sounds of the ocean soothes our restless souls!"

What makes this property unique

Makahuena offers beautiful ocean and garden views. You can see the sunrise and sunset from the point. Even Oahu is visible on a clear day just before sunrise! We especially enjoy the peaceful mornings on the lanai. Our location takes full advantage of the cooling tradewinds and the calming sounds of the waves crashing on the point.
