About this property

NEW Fall Special Walk to Poipu and Shipwreck Beach from a Cool Private Home

Summary:

Follow the Poipu Kai pathway toward Shipwreck Beach or Poipu Beach, then come home to air conditioning in every room at this private two-bedroom retreat. Sleeping six, the home combines a well-equipped kitchen, tropical back lanai, comfortable furnishings, and high-end finishes with the easy beach access that makes a Poipu trip feel effortless. Start breakfast looking out to the plants, pack up for the shore, and choose a different kind of afternoon at the shared pool or hot tub. The Shops at Kukuiʻula and Poipu Shopping Village are close for dinner, browsing, and a change of pace. When you are ready to roam farther, Spouting Horn, Polihale State Park, and Waimea Canyon are natural south and west side day trips. It is a strong fit for a family or friends who want beach walks, cool bedrooms, and a private place to return to after each sunny Kauai day.



The Space:

This private two-bedroom home sleeps six, with air conditioning in every room and a calm, comfortable feel throughout. The well-equipped kitchen faces the tropical back lanai, making breakfast and lunch easy to take outside. Comfortable furnishings and high-end finishes bring a polished but relaxed feel, while a landscaped courtyard along the walkway offers one more quiet place to sit.



Guest Access:

This home in Koloa offers a private entrance, garage, and access to the communal and outdoor pool plus hot tub, with a lit path to the door at night. Near the ocean with a garden backyard and patio, nearby shopping rounds out this family friendly stay.



The Neighborhood:

Poipu Kai sits in one of Kauai's most walkable beach areas, with community paths connecting you to Shipwreck Beach and Poipu Beach. Poipu Beach Park is popular for calmer swimming and snorkeling, while Shipwreck's cliffs and surf offer a more dramatic coastline. The Shops at Kukuiʻula and Poipu Shopping Village are close for restaurants, groceries, and a little browsing. Spouting Horn, Polihale State Park, and Waimea Canyon are worthwhile drives when you want to see more of the island. This sunny south shore pocket works especially well for families and friends who want the beach within reach and an easy landing place after dinner.



Getting Around:

Lihue Airport is about 30 to 40 minutes away, a pretty drive across Kauai's south shore. A rental car is recommended to reach Poipu's beaches, Koloa town's shops, and nearby dining with ease. Old Koloa Town is walkable for boutiques and restaurants, while beautiful beaches are just a short drive away. Parking is generally available on site or in small lots around town.



Other Things to Note:

Air conditioning in every room. This property is managed by Heavenly Vacations.

Our local Heavenly Vacations Kauai team is just a call or message away throughout your stay. We are always happy to share our favorite places to enjoy on the Garden Isle, and we are here to help right away should any issue arise. We respect your privacy and are here whenever you need us.

Tropical Paradise Short Walk to Shipwreck Beach!

First time in Kauai and this place provided exactly what we needed and wanted. Comfortable accommodation for 5 adults, all kitchen supplies for grand slam breakfasts and dinners on the BBQ! Morning relaxation in the jacuzzi, a safe and easy walk to the beach! Central location to visit the North shore and Waimea Canyon. Would highly recommend!

A Lovely Week!

This property is in a fabulous location, just off the walking path to beautiful nearby beaches. We enjoyed our private patios, surrounded by lush foliage. The home was roomy and comfortable for our party of four. The kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay again!

A Slice of Paradise

Our family enjoyed our time at the Hale Poipu Nani home. We had everything we needed, the home was spacious, clean, furnished nicely and stocked with cooking utensils, maybe could use a few more spices :-). The home had beach towels and beach chairs, etc. The hot tub was a nice touch for the evenings. Excellent location and distance to the pool and local beaches were easily walkable. We made many wonderful memories during our stay and rate this home AAA+.

Nice home, great location

The home is nice. Rooms are big enough, beds comfy. Kitchen has all the appliances. Boogie boards+ in the garage. Hot tub is a great way to finish the day. Everything was clean. Home could use a refresh soon but overall, especially for the price, 5 stars

The house was clean and comfortable. Vacasa was quick to respond to some issues that came up. The spa was not very clean when we showed up, so it took an extra day to shock it with chlorine. We enjoyed the garden area by the spa as well as the quietness of the lanai off of the master bedroom despite a common path running right behind. It is so vegetated, it is its own garden. There are beach towels, beach chairs and a boogie board for use in the garage--thank you! We did not watch TV, but did use the BBQ and everything seemed to work like it should. We will be back!

Paradise found

Hale Poipu Nani was the perfect stay for me and my family. The home is designed, decorated and detailed with guests in mind. We were welcomed by chocolates, cookies and granola. There is a coffee maker, beach towels, beach chairs, soaps, hot tub, laundry, comfortable beds! The home is spacious and beautifully decorated. We could walk to beaches and the Hyatt. Beautiful landscaping. Wonderful restaurants and shopping in the area. Hoping to return in the future! Mahalo!🌈🌺

Excellent location for walking to beaches

This home was centrally located on the greenbelt walking path, and only about ten minutes to the Hyatt Resort or to Poipu Beach, in the other direction. It was booked as a two bedroom, but the home has large common area to accommodate four bedrooms. One appears to be a lockoff for the owner and the other was set up to be a large office, but had a sleeper sofa. and could be easily used as a third bedroom. Lots of beach chairs, etc....in the garage.

Spring Break in Koloa

It's a great rental; pricey but definitely convenient and comfortable. One thing you should know is that there aren't really any pantry staples, no oil of any kind or even pepper. Luckily there was some salt. Usually spots like this have a decent range. Just make sure to include these items in your shopping trip when you get to Lihue.

Great location, house needs work

This is a comfortable property in a great location. We really enjoyed the layout, the garden and especially the location on the greenwayt. Kitchen well equipped and the hot tub was great on the cooler days. The local contact was responsive and provided oven mitts and garbage bags as requested. That said, we were disappointed by some deferred maintenance: the fan and light over the stove (part of microwave) did not work. The rugs were stained and dirty. The couch was stained and dirty. And many of the blinds were broken in that you could not open them to enjoy the view. There were cockroaches in the bathrooms. For the amount we paid, we expected more.

Great location

Pros: - Nice clean house with short walk to shipwreck beach. - Great master bedroom bed and bath with comfortable twin beds in second bedroom. - Lots of space in the house with good kitchen, living and dinning rooms. Cons: - Major - Pull out couch in third room had a very thin mattress with poor springs so was uncomfortable for one and not an option to sleep two. Believe that adding a thick mattress topper would solve most of this issue. - Minor - Kitchen had good supply of most cooking utensils but only four dining forks. Should have more for house that is intended to sleep 6. - The dishwasher broke the first day and we initially struggled to get hold of the maintenance manager (took three calls) but after we finally spoke, they sent in repair person and had it replaced and agreed to compensated for the days without.
