About this property

Fabulous Location near Shipwreck Beach and Grand Hyatt Resort

We purchased this lovely ground floor garden view condo in April, 2013. This condominium has a large master bedroom with A/C. The master bedroom has an an en-suite master bath with a walk in shower. Our home also has a half bath for your convenience. Our spacious lanai is an excellent place to kick back and enjoy your morning coffee or romantic dinner. Poipu Sands is located directly next to the ocean near famous Shipwreck Beach and adjacent to the Kauai Grand Hyatt Resort and Spa. The Grand Hyatt resort offers lush tropical grounds, casual and fine dining as well as shops and entertainment. Shipwreck Beach, located in front of the Hyatt is usually sunny and less crowded than other Poipu Beaches. This is a beautiful beach to take a romantic evening stroll and is often used as the backdrop for wedding photos. Poipu Sands is located within the upscale Poipu Kai resort. The Poipu Kai development is located on 70 acres and extends from Poipu Beach to Shipwreck Beach. The resort is connected by a green belt that has beautiful garden paths winding through it. The Kiahuna Golf Course and the Poipu Bay Golf Course are both in very near proximity. The Poipu Kai tennis and pickleball club is just a short walk from our unit. You may also enjoy a game of tennis on Poipu Sands private tennis court. Poipu Sands is the only complex within Poipu Kai that offers a private tennis court. Poipu Sands also offers a large seasonally heated private swimming pool. You also have access to an additional pool and hot tub just a short walk down the green belt path. Poipu Beach which has been ranked as one of the top beaches in the United States is just a short 10 minute walk from our unit along the pleasant Poipu Kai green belt. This beach has both a shallow area which is excellent for swimming with small children and a great snorkeling area as well. This is a favorite spot to see napping endangered monk seals and Hawaiian sea turtles. Old Koloa Town located less than five miles away is the site of the island's first sugar mill. Historic Old Koloa Town is a hub of picturesque shops, eateries, gift and souvenir emporiums. There are a variety of Luaus throughout Kauai including one at the Grand Hyatt Resort right next door. You may also enjoy a horse back ride along the Mahaulepu Coast line, renting a stand up paddle board to enjoy the ocean surf or dining at the large variety of nearby restaurants ranging from family fare to upscale and romantic. Take a lovely evening stroll along the green belt to Poipu Beach to enjoy the sunset then come home to enjoy dinner on your very own quiet and comfortable lanai.

Excellent location — an easy walk to several beaches. Spacious living space and bedroom. Loved the lanai — a great spot to watch the sun rise and relax after a day of exploring. Greatly appreciated the AC in the bedroom. Host was very responsive and directed us towards a local concierge who helped us book several activities during our stay.

Really nice place for the two of us to stay. It was pretty hot while we were there, so we missed not having an air conditioner. The location is really good; I just think we are old and kind of partial to the slowness of the north shore. Kathy was wonderful and made everything easy.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Aug 2025
Thank you for your kind review. I do just want to make clear that we do have an air conditioner in the bedroom. During the day if you open the lanai and the front door there are beautiful trade winds that blow through the unit.

Home away from home

Went to Waikiki for a wedding then decided to come to Kauai for the first time. The condo was a perfect place to use as a home base to see all the sights and to relax. I loved the location next to the Grand Hyatt so there were many scenic walking areas.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Cannone

Host profile image
We have lived in Fairbanks, Alaska for 46 years and have been coming to Hawaii since 1982 to escape our cold, dark winters. We spent several years researching where we wanted our winter getaway to be located. After visiting several places, we choose Poipu, Hawaii because of the consistent weather conditions, the outdoor activities and the friendly people. We absolutely love our home in Kauai and we are excited to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

We loved Poipu Sands because of all the beautiful green space that surrounds the complex. The feeling that you get at the Sands is one of openness. Poipu Sands sits directly near the beachfront. There is no road between the condos and the ocean.

What makes this property unique

Poipu Sands is located oceanfront along one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline on the island. The "Sands" is uniquely located within walking distance of both Shipwreck Beach and Poipu Beach. Beautiful walking paths connect us to both beaches.
