A perfect family getaway.

We were looking for a place near Brenecke Beach in Poipu and this place was the perfect distance away. A short walk (about 3 mins) and we were there. Great for running trails as well. The host was very communicative, even during a tsunami warning. The a/c helped as well during warmer days. We are sad to leave. Aloha and Mahalo!

Great end to a trip to Hawaii

Kauai was our last stop on our two week trip to Hawaii. Kauai was a perfect last stop for rest and relaxation and Poipu Beach was a great place to be. The condo is well located for access to the beach - about a block to the ocean. It was nice having the living space and the bedrooms on separate floors so people could sleep in without being bothered. We thought this was a great place at a great price - would recommend it strongly!

Traveling to Kauai

We were in town for business and found the property managers very helpful. We arrived a little before check in time and they helped us check in early which was very helpful. Close proximity to the beach, loved the AC in the unit and the layout of the condo!
