About this property

Remodeled Family-Size Condo with Fantastic View of the Ocean and Pool

Break away to surf, sand and fun on your next family vacation. Enjoy it all when you stay at oceanfront Makahuena Resort. Our fully remodeled three-bedroom Poipu condo here (Makahuena 2309) has a fantastic view of the ocean and pool. The layout is ideal for up to 8 guests. Refined simplicity reigns supreme framed by the magical view of the sea.

With two levels and a third floor loft you will have more than enough space to please everyone. The functional Great Room has an open design that leads to the ocean view covered lanai where lively conversations are waiting to happen with family and friends. There is outdoor dining here too and a chance to see humpback whales breaching in winter or dolphins playing at any time of year.

Two large suites with king beds and private baths are on the upper level and include the ocean view Master bedroom. There are two twin beds on third floor loft and a queen size sofa bed in the living room for more guests. When it’s time to eat and dine, the full kitchen works ideally for any chef with its elegant quartz counter tops and premium stainless steel appliances.

There’s more fun waiting for you at Makahuena Resort with complimentary tennis court and an ocean view swimming pool. Load beach gears on a cart and walk along the beach trail to enjoy swimming, snorkeling and surfing at the popular beaches in Poipu. With Poipu, Brennecke's, and Shipwreck beaches each a short stroll away, guests can take advantage of our beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, beach umbrella, sand toys, boogie boards, and spacious cart.

Enjoy morning walk or jogging on the Poipu Beach Trail towards Maha'ulepu Heritage Trail and admire the breathtaking view over Shipwreck Beach and the beautiful Grand Hyatt Resort. Explore a 3.7 mile scenic trail towards Punahoa Point that offers the chance to see wildlife and the local flora.

Brennecke's Deli and Brennecke's Beach Broiler serve lunch and dinner nearby, and a five-minute drive leads to Poipu Shopping Village and The Shops at Kukuiula, both of which have an assortment of dining and shopping possibilities. Another five-minute drive brings guests to Old Koloa Town, where historic plantation buildings have been carefully renovated to create a charming village with additional restaurants and shops, as well as a grocery store.

If you’re itching to get out and explore Kauai…good news. Guests can reach Waimea Canyon in an hour and the lush north shore in 90 minutes, with many natural wonders to discover in between.

We are proud of the original art of the condo. 19 pieces of Kauai’s Landmarks done by a gifted local photo artist, Charles Ellenberger. Charles had served the film industry at Warner Brothers and worked with well-known portrait artists for a high-end clientele. Since moving to Kauai with his wife, Linna, Charles has been producing fine art photos of Kauai’s nature and people for both locals and visitors from around the world. You will discover possibilities of destinations to visit during your stay while admiring the beautiful images displayed in the unit.

To compliment the unit's appearance, we handpicked contemporary furnishings that are both design-forward and comfortable.

We also have our custom roast Kauai coffee in the kitchen to start your day right. Our service includes a host of amenities with free parking, Wi-Fi and washer/dryer in your condo. To ensure an exceptional experience, we provide our guests with hotel grade supplies such as full sets of towels and three rolls of toilet paper at each bathroom, soaps/shampoo/conditioner/lotion, detergents, paper towel, Kleenex, and trash bags to cover the first a couple of days of your stay.

Are you on the lookout for a cut above in Kauai? Please contact us if you’d like to stay at this contemporary artist family-size condo at the edge of the Pacific!

Very well equipped—great views

The location is very nice with a pretty awesome view. The place is well stocked and has plenty of kitchen and beach items. We underestimated the amount of stairs. We stayed with our kids and grandkids. Every time we left the condo, it was 42 stairs to navigate, in addition to the stairs to get to the bedroom— keep in mind if you have knee problems or are advanced in years. The info implies an easy walk to Brenneke and Poipu beaches. It’s along the road and mostly uphill going back.Cleanliness is a big deal to me— the bedding (especially pillow covers) were stained and smelled funny. We washed them including the extra pillow cases stored in the closet before using. It is Hawaii and no matter where you stay, it’s a beautiful place! The owners were very responsive and helpful.

Great place

It had everything listed! Umbrellas, pack n play, 3 boogie boards, chairs, beach toys, pickleball paddles, great pool and hot tub. It was a short walk or drive to the Hyatt beach as well as poipu beaches. It had lots of extra sheets and towels. And the kitchen was fully stocked! The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was amazing! You could see the ocean and the pool from the lanai. Be prepared to carry your luggage up a full flight of stairs and down two others. The hosts were great and always responded in a timely manner

Kauai Beach Condo

The three bedrooms were perfect for four adults (2 couples) and two children. Quiet with beautiful sunsets/sunrises. Walk to Poipu Beach or Shipwreck Beach was little less than a mile - no complaints. For essentials, Koloa was a short drive. Everything worked well. Beach towels were provided. Kids loved the pool. We would stay again.

Amazing place to stay

This place was perfect for myself and my family. All of us 18 and over. The loft area was great, however you have to be willing to have Someone come to your room to shower. This was not an issue for our kids, or us but just a heads up. There is a 1/2 bathroom down stairs but no shower. The two masters were perfect and the beds were comfortable. They provide everything.. and I mean everything from the beach to the bathroom to the kitchen. All the stuff provided was super nice and we got great use out of all of them. Especially the beach stuff. They provide lots of towels, and lots of beach towels. I would highly recommend this place for the views as we watched whales a few days swimming while we here staying .. 10/10 recommendation. Described perfectly in the listing. Communication was great. Check in and out was great.. until next time Kauai!

Poipu Paradise

It’s hard to go wrong with a stay in Poipu, it never disappoints! The drawbacks to our stay, parking lot construction made parking and exiting the parking lot very difficult. Other than that, everything was great! I really enjoyed the wine, coffee and snacks that were provided. We also utilized the 3 coolers available to use and the snorkeling equipment. There were tons of towels and when we needed more, it was great to be able to wash them up in the washer and dryer. Thanks for a wonderful and memorable stay in your unit!

Oceanfront Rental near Turtle Beach Gem

What an amazing view and location. The perfect place in a great, safe area with plenty of space for families. A short fun drive to various beach areas, eateries and local shops, not to mention the popular Puka Dog. You havevto make your way to Poipu Beach where the Sea Turtles rest. I recommend this rental, owners made the entire process very easy. Mahalo
