The location was great -- a pretty walk through the resort to the Poipu beach. It was also a central location when driving to Waimea canyon or up to the North shore. The condo was comfortable with updated bathrooms and a well-stocked kitchen. We went with teens, but would be ideal for a family with littles, as well.

Great location

Easy walking to two beaches. Property could use a good carpet shampooing and some screen/window fixing. We still enjoyed our stay and it was overall clean. It’s just not as spotless as we had hoped, given that nobody is supposed to wear shoes inside which is pretty normal for Hawai’i. We had a few small issues with the windows and screens and the property manager responded very quickly and did everything to fix it. We would stay there again.

Great 2 level condo unit with AC units in both bedrooms and a great flow of air on the main floor with a ceiling fan. We really enjoyed our stay. The unit has great amenities in the kitchen and also plenty of beach equipment. Totally saved us time and money without needing to rent those things. The pool just outside the units entry staircase was very nice and it felt like our own private oasis. You also can access the association pool area which is a bigger pool with also a hot tub. The homeowner also gives you access to the Poipu beach athletic club which was totally awesome. Like a country club. Totally awesome place to stay

Great location and condo

My family and I were very pleased with the stay. The property is located near most things to do on the south side. There was a lot of attention to details with things like supplying actual (Costco brand) shampoo/conditioner/body wash. Some cooking supplies such as (nonexpired) olive oil/balsamic vinaigrette and other spices made simple meals easy to prepare. As a family with kids it was very nice having 2 separate bathrooms and 2 separate bedrooms for privacy. Another location in Princeville that we are still currently at (paying more for) does not have any of these amenities and is not in nearly as good of overall condition. We highly recommend this location for your stay.

Great location and property

The condo was beautifully decorated and easy walking distance to the beach. The location was great. The condo is updated in terms of appliances, furniture, and the beds were comfortable. It was nice having a washer and dryer in the unit as well as beach gear. Some minor feedback for improvement would be the carpet. It could use a good cleaning as this is the first thing you’ll notice when you walk in. The upstairs master did not have black out blinds, so you'll get some headlights lighting up the room at night. Was weird the first night, but you get used to it. Beside these two minor things, this place is wonderful. The communication before and during the trip was fantastic. Would for sure stay here again.
