A new gourmet kitchen with cherry cabinets, granite counters, and new appliances provide everything you need to comfortably prepare your meals. The Makahuena barbeque pavilion is right outside the condo. The living room is spacious, and includes a sleeper sofa, flat screen television with Blue Ray/DVD player. Some DVDs are provided. The large master bedroom has a beautiful king size bed with a brand new pillow top mattress. The attached bathroom has also been tastefully remodeled.

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!

This was our 50th state to vist as a family. Location was key for us since we were exploring the whole island. We really enjoyed this .

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.
