This house was a spectacular place to stay for our vacation! The view of the ocean from the lanai was fabulous, we were able to watch whales breaching in the ocean from the comfort of this home! Proximity to the beaches and several restaurant/bars is true as stated in the listing-a short walk! Chris, our host, is one of the nicest and most accommodating we have ever had. Thank you for sharing your home!

Chris was a welcoming host, very responsive to questions, and best of all, the accommodations exceeded our expectations.We enjoyed the view of the ocean from the balcony, the well-stocked beach gear room, and the quick walk to the beach.Most of us took morning and evening walks to check out the turtles on the beach. The kids rented surfboards and even took a lesson.Having stayed at other properties in Poipu, this is now our new favorite for family trips!

Amazing Location and House

Overall, the property had everything we wanted during our stay in Poipu. The house was spacious, clean and stocked with all the right amenities. It was walking distance to beaches and came stocked with everything you would need at the beach. The owner was very communicative and the checkin/checkout process was very easy. Would stay here again without a doubt.

Loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay! The location is perfect with a quick walk to two of the best beaches (Brenneckes & Poipu). Plus the layout of the house is great (where the downstairs quarters could be completely secluded if one desires). The host was great and easy to work with. We already miss waking up to that ocean view every day!

This was one of the best vacation rentals I've stayed in! The pictures do not do the view from balcony/deck justice. The property is a 4 minute walk to the beautiful Brennecke Beach (see photos) and maybe 10 minutes to Poipu Beach Park, with calmer waters and snorkeling. The house has everything you need for the beach. From sun products to outdoor showers, the house had it all. We even did yoga in the side yard in the mornings. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting Kauai! Our group of 6 loved being so close to Old Kōloa Town and most activities were less than 20 minutes away.

Chris is a dream host, having reached out before our trip to provide the keyless access code and internet password, address (of course), a useful car rental and airport tip, and even asked if there were any special requests. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a personalized welcome letter, a box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts (delicious BTW) and emergency phone numbers for both him and Theresa. He even checked-in (via VRBO) to make sure that our stay was going well. The house is absolutely beautiful, a stunning view of the beach and Pacific Ocean, a short walk to two beaches (including the infamous Poipu beach where sea turtles come to shore each night) and the famous Puka Dog. The home was clean and welcoming, very well stocked, and you could even say that it’s a VRBO renter’s dream.

A fantastic home 100 yards from the ocean!

This house was perfect for the 6 of us and the host Chris was so helpful and attentive. The house is 100 yards from the ocean and had all the amenities we needed. It is also stocked with plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc. Look no further for your place to stay in Poipu. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai.

About the host

Hosted by Vrbo for owner Chris White

Host profile image
Aloha! My family moved to Kauai in 1960 and we've been part of the community ever since. I am recently retired after 25 years running my appraisal company and currently serve on the Kauai County Board of Review along with other community and volunteer programs.

Theresa and I have spent many years hiking, biking and kayaking around the island. While we love to travel, we always appreciate returning to the people and beauty of Kauai.

Why they chose this property

Our home is located on the sunny side of the island convenient to beaches with a partial ocean view yet set back and landscaped for privacy. The nearby beaches generally offer great year-round swimming and snorkeling. Coastal walks along the nearby Mahaluepu Coastline are a family favorite.

We are truly centrally located on the island, The north shore is about an hour away and the spectacular Waimea Canyon and Kokee State Park are an hour in the opposite direction. This gives you option of day trips to these beautiful areas within reasonable driving times.

What makes this property unique

I designed our beach house to be comfortable, casual and welcoming. My goal is to provide a clean, well equipped home that people will want to return to and recommend. Integrity and friendly professionalism are the foundation.

Booking with us gives you an instant connection with Kauai. You are also supporting small business and community members that make this island unique. Aikane Kauai is locally owned, professionally managed and fully licensed with a long, successful track record of satisfied and returning guests.
