From your oceanfront perch on a lava-rock cliff, a dazzling ombre of blues tantalizes the eyes and the smell of saltwater tickles your nose. Let the ocean breezes warm you as you lounge on multiple lanais, listening to the waves crash below. This roomy house enjoys an unbeatable location right on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, surrounded by lush tropical landscaping.

Keep your crew fed and happy thanks to a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an island for extra prep space. Dine with the ocean as your backdrop at the six-person table surrounded by windows, or opt for the outdoor, six-person patio table.

Sweet dreams of Hawaiian sunsets await you in the upstairs bedrooms. There's a convenient half-bath on the main floor and three en suite bathrooms upstairs, offering extra privacy and space. Make yourself at home with extras that include cable TV, free high-speed internet, and a washer/dryer. A guest house with an additional king bed and AC will perfectly accommodate additional members of your party. The living areas are on the first floor, all bedrooms are on the second floor, and the studio is on the ground floor.

Why We Love This Home

Prime Location: It's a quick walk to Poipu Beach Park to swim, surf, and snorkel.

Roomy Living Area: Gather the whole ohana for some quality time in the living room, where floor-to-ceiling windows let you appreciate the view even inside. Bench seating, a couch, and a love seat provide a spot for everyone to relax.

Plenty of Space: The spacious, flexible floor plan includes large shared spaces, so your entire ohana can spend quality time together. Outside, several lanais provide a front-row seat to the incredible views.

Slather on the sunscreen and make the short walk down to Poipu Beach Park. While there, enjoy lounging in the sand, splashing in the waves, and exploring underwater life through a snorkel mask. Brennecke’s Beach Broiler across the street from the beach is the place to be for casual seafood and amazing views.

Please note that there is no air conditioning in the main house. Only the attached studio includes air conditioning.

Spectacular life changing vacation!!

We loved the home! The views were amazing. We watched turtles and whales every day from the deck!! Each of our kids had their own space. The great dining room table fit us all so we could gather in the morning and the evening!! The homes decor was very appropriate and very eclectic . We loved it. The private studio for the family with the infant was so perfect!! The home had 2 boogie boards a surf board and chairs!! Also umbrellas were great to bring to the beach. We would rent here again!!

Family vacation

The house was more than accommodating for our needs with 6 of us and the view was breathtaking! It was close to the beach and restaurants. Negatives: the garbage disposal didn’t work, some of the windows and blinds didn’t work, the oven in the guest house didn’t work, one of the showers didn’t work (the hot water handle just spun around). These are just small things that were inconveniences, but we would definitely stay again.

Great location in neighborhood

SHE NEEDS TLC…. The view is absolutely spectacular there is no doubt about that. The entire house needs to be updated and air-conditioning installed. I will never stay again unless it’s fully air-conditioned. A few of the windows would not open or close. Two out of three of the televisions did not work when we arrived. After reporting one not working, it was replaced 48 hours later by a very nice lady and gentlemen. Didn’t realize the other one did not work until we were ready to leave. All day rain one day and we had a few leaks. One on the stairs and one by a doorway. Great location for eating out, golfing, swimming, surfing or walking to the beach. Great neighborhood, someone just needs to invest in this old house.

Spectacular location and easy access to a nice beach, good restaurants and shopping. The house could use some updates and the decks need a coat of paint but the location made it all worth it. We would book it again.

Amazing View - Funky House behind on maintenance

As most reviews have mentioned the location and views are stunning. Whales, turtles, dolphins, seals, and birds were an absolute highlight. But also as most reviews have mentioned, the maintenance is far behind. We struggled with check in door codes, finding propane for BBQ, broken/missing/inoperable windows, fans, and blinds. During a strong storm we had water coming thru many windows including one over the stairs which required lots of towels and water catching receptacles. The kitchen works well but does lack any extras to prepare meals besides salt and pepper. The patio and decks above the ocean are superb view but also feel like some boards are nearing end of use and some railing is broken. The accompanying deck/patio furniture is also suspect besides a nice couch on the corner which doesn’t contribute to seeing the ocean. The supplied beach gear is helpful but also showing the age and wear/tear. The washer dryer is nice to help keep packing needs down. There is no outdoor shower to battle the sand so we used a yard hose. The house was clean on check in. Overall, the view is incredible but the overall condition can cause some stress and inconvenience.

The View

House is set up perfectly. Almost like everyone had their own suite. Had everything we needed to cook all of our meals…..do bring spices other than S&P if needed. The view will make for any “issues” you “think” you have with the house. Would definitely come back.

A bit disappointed

The property did not have a good first impression. The overall appearance was disappointing. The night we arrive we were not able to enter the property with the code we were given and had to contact Vasaca to get a different code. The home needs some improvements. Alot of things need replaced (cabinets and floors) but even a new coat of paint would greatly improve the appearance. Some windows didn't work, blinds were missing or broken and it was very warm inside to sleep since there is not any air conditioning. The floor fans that were there did not provide much relief at night. The positive is the incredible view! Also, the outside grounds were well taken care of and we met the people who took care of them. The house was in a nice location and had alot of room but the appearance inside and out needs to be improved.

Family Getaway

The central location, nice neighborhood, ocean front views and beautiful yard could not be beat. Our large family enjoyed walking to Poipu beach (if you go at sunrise, you can see the sea turtles going into the water for the day). We loved spotting dolphins and sea turtles from the yard, doing yoga on the balcony and stargazing. The location was a good homebase for the day trips that we had planned. The only negative was the house is older and we had some problems turning off the showers all the way, and turning on light switches etc. The house could use some updating. Nonetheless, we thought this house was perfect for our needs and loved our stay.

Best View on the Island!

Our entire family enjoyed the fabulous view of the coast, crashing waves and sunsets. We had a difficult time with the access code but your local assistant helped us out. The kitchen had good appliances and cooking tools. A few more serrated knives would be nice. The photo misrepresented the property which was built in 1993. It is in great need of repair and paint. Many of the electrical outlets didn’t work and the air conditioning in the studio was more of a swamp cooler. Only 1 out of 3 portable fans worked. Cockroaches came into the master bath because the window needs repair. We hope to return in a few years but hope you make some well needed updates.

Paradise

The view is what win is over. It alone putshines any negatives about this property. Definately lacking in a few features someone from out of state can't bring with them nor would want to purchase for such a short stay, including items such as spices and other items for cooking, foil, and extra rolls of paper towels.

Best views ever!

The views from this property are the best! The house needs a lot of TLC and updating and lots of creatures inside like roaches, lizards and ants as none of the doors or screens close tight so they can all just walk in whenever. Second level is extremely hot with no AC and does not cool down until around midnight. Having said all of that there was plenty of room and being on the ocean and listening to the waves was fantastic.

Great stay in Poipu

We loved staying here! The views and sound of the ocean absolutely cannot be beat. The location is great and very close to both Poipu and Shipwreck beaches. We stayed in January and except for one particularly warm day, did not miss the A/C. While we would agree with some other reviewers that certain parts of the property could use updating, we found the place to be very clean and the furnishings comfortable. The house was VERY well equipped with anything you might need for a beach vacation, such as boogie boards, snorkeling gear, chairs, etc. We have small kids and were also impressed with the assortment of kids’ items, including a high chair, pack n’ play, even baby gates to block the stairs. Overall, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again if/when we return to Kauai!

Iconic Location

This house had everything we wanted for a total Kauai experience. The view is outstanding for whales, dolphins, turtles and sunset. Quick walk to the beach for great swimming, surfing and snorkeling. Comfortable beds, clean. Well stocked kitchen. Beach gear including towels all provided. Had a couple of minor issues like coffee pot that were resolved very quickly by the very friendly staff. This is an older, classic house with some wear, but perfect for what we wanted. We didn't want to leave. Mahalo!

ABOLUTELY Worth Every Penny

Location, Location, Location - The only thing that would have made this house better in my opinion would be air conditioning. I was under the impression that several rooms had AC, but it was only the studio that had outdoor access. The home was very uncomfortable during the day in July. Luckily, we found ourselves out and about most days. The evening cooled off enough to sleep comfortably. Enough complaining, this place is magnificent, I have been home one day and already miss the ocean waves crashing on the shore. Not sure how I will ever sleep well again without them it was hypnotic. The home has 3 bedrooms with king beds and the studio with king bed and two twin beds in a room with curtains which is perfect for 2 kids. There is also the loft which was my room this is also the hottest part of the house, but the views and the private deck made it worth it to me. if I travel with a large party to Koloa again, I will try and get this home. Our two weeks here included a lot of short walks to Poipu beach. Early morning and sunsets walks were worth the trip all by themselves. I highly recommend Koloa zip lines, and Island Helicopters. The Jurassic Landing tour was amazing and more than I expected. Our fishing trip was on rough waters so you don't want my opinion on that (lol). Aloha and Mahalo to Vacasa for providing this home!

Amazing views and setting. House needs TLC

We really enjoyed our week here on Kauai. Having a 2-level porch/deck overlooking the cliffs and ocean just can't be beat. The beds were very comfortable and the 9 of us had what we needed. The dining table seated us all and we enjoyed several meals there.. The kitchen had what we needed, but the ice maker was very slow. There are some issues where paint and repairs are needed, two of the sliding doors are quite difficult to slide and some cooling in the main house would be nice. It gets rather warm in the afternoon, but the ceiling fans and free standing fans do help and it does cool off in the evening. Having a home in FL we know about bugs and keeping them at bay. However we found more cockroaches in our week here than we do in a year in FL. Perhaps a new extermination service could do better. Overall, the pros outweigh the cons by a good margin. We would consider staying here again.
