All about the views! This three level layout worked very well for our family with adult children and their spouses. The main kitchen/living and deck space was big enough to share meal making and whale watching, and the ensuite bathrooms gave every couple enough space at night. BBQ area has new grills, and the hot tub was enjoyed in the evenings. Short walk to beaches in either direction, and tennis courts never too busy. Not super fancy, but very comfortable. We would def recommend!

The location was great, close to beach. Each room had its own bathroom which was fantastic! Our boys were thrilled that they didn’t have to share. Having our own laundry unit right in the suite was perfect. The bathrooms could use some updating and the upstairs could use some TLC but the living room, dining room and kitchen were good. The beach gear, especially the coolers and wagon for hauling all the chairs and umbrella, were very thoughtful touches.

My family absolutely loved this place! The views are spectacular, and we love the layout, each bedroom having its own bathroom is a real plus. And individual air conditioning in each room is a double plus. Nobody’s too hot, nobody’s too cold. The development is beautiful, very well kept, very clean grounds. The location was perfect for us.

Perfect stay

While the property could use a refresh with new decor and furniture, everything was very clean and as described in the listing/photos. Equipped with basic kitchen items but includes beach chairs and umbrellas. Having three bedrooms and four bathrooms was why we chose this property. The location and property was an added bonus.

About the host

Hosted by Rico and Cinzia

Host profile image
Our love story began in Hawaii.

Many years ago, we were married on these islands, surrounded by the ocean, trade winds, and a magic we never wanted to lose. So we kept returning—year after year—until Kauai became woven into our lives.

When the pandemic began, it was Cinzia who felt a strong pull to stay. She sensed the island would be our safe haven—a place where our family could live close to nature, breathe deeply, and find peace in an uncertain world. And she was right. Kauai held us, healed us, and gave us clarity.

During that time, something shifted.

Cinzia, with her Italian roots, California-beach sensibility, and lifelong designer’s eye, noticed how many island homes needed to be refreshed and reimagined. She envisioned spaces filled with light, beauty, color, and soul—places where guests could feel the serenity we felt.

At the same time, Rico—drawing on his island roots and experience as a real estate broker—started searching with Cinzia for properties with potential and the right spirit. Together, we explored the island carefully and intentionally.

Every home we selected became part of a vision we shared.

Cinzia curated and redesigned each property—infusing them with her blend of Italian chic and relaxed island elegance. Natural textures, soft palettes, coastal touches, and thoughtful details that celebrate everything she loves about Kauai: sunsets, sea creatures, rainbows, and waterfalls.

We knew we wanted our homes in Poipu Beach—the sunny, golden side of the island, and the place where our Hawaii story began.

Today, we manage 30 properties that we personally found, remodeled, and refreshed with heart. With our wonderful local team, we’ve created spaces where comfort, style, and the spirit of Kauai come together.

Our dream is simple: that every guest who stays with us feels the joy, peace, and wonder this island has given our family.

Come be part of our story.

Let Kauai become your haven too—with Koolkondo!
