Our first impression was not that great, as the unit was stuffy and smelled like cleaning solution. That quickly improved though once we opened up and the ocean breezes brought fresh air. The location is ideal along the south coast, just a short walk to Shipwreck and Poipu beaches. The deck and pool area overlook the crashing ocean waves. The kitchen was well stocked. We really enjoyed the beach gear, including the snorkeling equipment. Overall, the unit could benefit from a deep cleaning and perhaps some updating, but the location, view, and deck/pool area made for a nice stay in Poipu.
