Wouldn’t change a thing!

If you’re staying in Kauai, you can’t beat this home and its location. It’s a beautiful home. The walk to the beach is less than 2 minutes, max. All beach supplies (boogie boards, chairs, wagon to transport) are provided.The deck is large and perfect for dining. Hot tub, outdoor shower, amenities . We did walk to the clubhouse (15 minutes or so) to use the pool, work out club and restaurant (reasonably priced in comparison to some surrounding establishments) a few times. Would highly recommend!

Great house to explore Kauai from!

The house is in a great location on the south side of the island - just a few steps away from Brenneke's Beach & Poipu Beach. Was perfect for my husband and our teen daughters. Used the gas grill and beach gear. Unfortunately the hot tub wasn't working during our stay - a main reason why we booked this house. But, the owner tried to get it fixed as soon as he was made aware of the situation, but wasn't able to get the parts in time, so he did refund us 1 night stay - which helped make the situation better. Definitely would recommend to anyone traveling to Kauai. A great place to explore and relax from.

Ideal Escape

So much to praise about our two-week stay, from the beautiful, well equipped cottage to the outstanding location in paradise. Thanks especially to Brent who brought a new beach wagon over when one broke and help unlock a bathroom door. Friendly and efficient and an ideal host. We will gladly return some day.

Gorgeous home close to Brenneckes Beach

We could not love this property more! It was perfect for our family of four. Beautifully decorated and everything we needed was there, including beach towels, wagon, chairs and sand toys…kitchen was well equipped, and private hot tub was much appreciated. We would love to stay again one day.

Great location and clean!

We loved staying at this location and would stay again. There was no communication before we arrived and had some trouble finding the property at first. There is not great reception so make sure to find out where you need to go and the code to the door before arriving. The rooms and kitchen had most everything you would need, however get coffee if you need it and shampoo/body soap. Very little things that would not stop me from staying again!

Love this place

We almost didn’t want to review because it was that great. Clean beautiful priced right all amenities were high end. It was just wonderful. The beach was at the end of a dead end street. The plantation house was a work of art. It was like living in a dream. I finally found heaven on earth, not to mention how nice the owners were.

Perfect Cottage at Poipu Beach!

This VRBO rental was absolutely perfect! It is clean, well appointed and beautifully decorated. The lanai is particularly exceptional and our hosts could nit have been more welcoming. It is walking distance to good food, drinks, sea turtles, seals and the beach. We loved our stay at this gorgeous gem!! Well worth the money for certain!

Turtle heaven

The cottage is perfectly positioned half a block from the beach where the turtles come up every evening at sunset to sleep on Poipu beach. It is a 12 minute or so walk along a lighted path to the Hyatt. The cottage is very well equipped and the windows between the living area and the lanai accordion open so outside / inside flow together. We will certainly be back!

Chillin’ by the Sea on the Lanai’!

Such a comfortable and beautiful cottage! We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed all the home’s amenities, especially the breezy and spacious Lanai! Parking would be tight for big vehicles and the outdoor online photos show a wider neighborhood than reality. But all and all, an awesome place! We hope to make another visit in the future! Mahalo!

About the host

Hosted by Brent Olson

Aloha! Brent, originally from Oregon, and I (Karen) originally from Ohio, both moved to Kauai in the early 1980's (when we were too young to know any better) met, fell in love, got married, and have been here ever since. With my design background and Brent being a general contractor, we began Olson Homes Inc. which is a design/build firm specializing in custom homes here on the south side. We live in Kalaheo, but ever since I came here and fell in love with Kauai, I dreamed of having a little place in Poipu, near the beach. I never thought it would happen, but this property kind of fell in our laps and my dream came true! And we set out to build our perfect beach cottage. We named it Ke'ola, 'the life', because we feel it represents the amazing quality of life that Kauai has to offer. Karen is a plein air (outdoor) painter, and you can see her work at www.kauaipainter.com.

Why they chose this property

Perfect location and an incredible beach house.

What makes this property unique

We manage this rental ourselves, live in Kalaheo (15 minutes away) and Brent is usually working in Poipu - so anything that we have overlooked we can take care of immediately. Just call or text, and we will take care it.
