Unique Living room TV wall mount makes it visible from kitchen and dining areas as well.

French doors into the master bedroom (California King Bed), step-in oversize shower and enlarged kitchen rank this unit among the elite!

Come enjoy the tropical sunrises and sunsets and everything in between! Book now to reserve your time for this in-demand pristine condo!

Thank you Rodney for your positive impressions. I’m only saddened that you ended our 41 in a row 5 star review streak. Oh well, nothing lasts forever🥴. While you praised our listing accuracy, you may have overlooked that it specifically states “Unobstructed ocean and beach views with waves breaking can be enjoyed just a few steps off the lanai! “ Nevertheless, we thank you for having selected our special tropical home for your Kauai visit.

Favorite Place on the Island

When visiting the island of Kauai we only stay in Poipu. This condo was well equipped and very clean. It's close to Poipu beach, walk a short distance to watch the turtles, and close to the Hyatt Resort. I would definitely stay at this condo again.

Beautiful property, nice upgrades, all the right amenities

I've stayed in several Poipu Sands units over the years. This has been the nicest by far! The upgrades are beautiful, the unit feels so open and airy. It has everything you need and is close to the beach and the pool. I highly recommend this condo and we will be back!

Lovely Place. Exactly as pictured.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this Poipu Sands condo. It was July, and although the unit has LG type air conditioners in the bedroom and main living area, they were not required during our stay. Open windows, ceiling fans were sufficient, and the sound of the ocean can be heard at night.

Nice property and location

Close to gas bbq and pool, and walkable to Grand Hyatt. No hot tub, but decent pool. Parking very good. Kitchen well appointed although coffee grinder didn't work. No direct ocean view, but good access to smooth lawn, and steps to ocean view. Overall we loved it. Thank you!

Aloha Kris, Thank you for the accurate review and we hope to host you again in the future. The coffee grinder apparently was another casualty to Island humidity as we only bought it a few years ago. I will have it replaced immediately. While the Poipu Sands condos have one of the few heated pools in the area, we do not have a hot spa. The nearby Poipu Kai pool area is currently being renovated (with a spa) and will provide complimentary access to our Guests as well. Yours truly, Bruce Trubo Owner, Poipu Sands 413

This condo is top notch! The location can’t be beat , so close to the beach and walking trails and the pool is wonderful. Our host is an excellent communicator, all our questions were answered and Bruce is very accommodating to any request you might have. The condo was very clean and the bed super comfy. We enjoyed a kitchen that had all the dishes and utensils we required and loved the bbq that was close by. We loved this area of Poipu and will not hesitate to book with Bruce again next year!

A perfect place to stay in Poipu

Fantastic place to stay in Kauai. Bruce and Betty were great to communicate with and they have put a lot of time and consideration into making sure you enjoy your visit. The bed was comfortable, kitchen fully stocked, premium hair/body soaps, laundry detergent, and lotions provided along with beach towels, chairs, snorkel sets, cooler, umbrella and almost anything you might need for your stay in Poipu. Bruce and Betty have decorated their condo with quality furniture and beautiful artwork and have even put together a welcome binder with tons of information about their unit as well as recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the area. This condo was just a short 3 minute drive to Poipu Beach and area restaurants.

Hyatt conference stay

Stayed here while attending a conference at the Hyatt. Beautiful 5 min walk every morning to the conference location. Also, good central location for any sightseeing afterwards. It was a little warm the first day since A/C is just in the bedroom, but we quickly figured out which windows created a nice cross breeze through the condo so we were comfortable the rest of the time. Pool was amazing! Very clean and very quiet. Bruce was super nice to call and check on us to make sure everything was ok even though he himself was traveling.

Mahalo for your lovely review. It’s been a bit stressful for me traveling (in Asia) as I do try to be quickly available for our Guests with a simple text or Email. While you were so kind not to mention it, I apologize for any disruption the upstairs renovation may have created. We will be very happy when tranquility returns soon upon completion.

Vacation in Kauai

We had a very good stay in your condo, Bruce. Thank you for all the amenities and the lovely surroundings. There was nothing we needed that you did not provide. We appreciate all you and Betty did to make us feel that we were truly welcomed into your home away from home. It was obvious that you cared about our comfort, and we really appreciate it. Jim and I are frequent visitors to the island. I hope I can contact you again about future visits. Sincerely, Pat and Jim

Great one bedroom vacation

The location was wonderful, 25 minute drive from Lihue airport and about 10 minutes from a few good grocery stores and restaurants. We also were able to walk to a few beaches that were good for surfing, swimming, or snorkeling. There was also a great hike right outside. The owners had a binder with very helpful information for hiking places, medical services, grocery stores, restaurants, and many other things. We referenced that binder everyday. They also had beach chairs and snorkel gear which was very convenient. A cool breeze came right through the condo when the windows were open which kept us cool at night. Thank you for allowing us to rent your condo!
