Aloha Morgan, so sorry to hear about the WiFi issue your group experienced and the mosquitoes that were getting in! We dont seem to have any record of the WiFi issue that you reported and no guests since have had an issue. The screens that were loose due to high winds has now been addressed as well and apologies again for the inconvenience this caused.

Peaceful Location in the Middle of It All

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Kai Nui in Poipu Kai neighborhood was lovely. Ocean breezes and stargazing at night and SHipwreck Beach was an enjoyable walk or a quick drive away. This location was a great launching point for things like catamaran tours of the napali coast and for helicopter tours that depart from Lihue. Also so close to all of the great restaurants in Poipu - 5 minute drive away.As for the accommodations, We are a family of 5 with all boys and two college age, the three large bedrooms gave us plenty of room to spread out. But This home would easily accommodate two young families with the parents in the king bedrooms and all the kids piled in the bunk room that also has a king in addition to bunk beds. The garage was packed with everything you could possibly need for the beach. We loaded up the wagon with beach towels, umbrellas, chairs for all of us, boogie boards and snorkle gear everyday.

Wonderful stay with family

Our family had three generations staying in this lovely, spacious house. Great for sunrises and sunsets on the balconies, cooking meals together in the well-equipped kitchen, dinner on the deck, and games inside. Short walks along the green belt to Brennecke’s and Poipu as well as Shipwreck Beach, with a nice assortment of beach gear available to borrow. Management was very helpful and responsive. It was a wonderful stay!

This was a beautiful home to spend our extended family vacation in. Perfect layout and the bunkbeds were great for the kids. Loved having access to extras like beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, sand toys, wagon for little kids, etc. The house is in a quiet, nice neighborhood and close to everything. The paved walking path to the pool and beach was great! Highly recommend this home and hope to stay again in the future!
