Poipu Oceanfront Dream Getaway at Kuhio Shores! 30 feet from the waters edge!!!

Hawaii Tax ID# TA-034-303-5904-01 and GE-034-303-5904-01
New! Air Conditioning!
Thirty feet from the waters edge, our spectacular oceanfront, ground floor, one bedroom, Poipu condo, has fantastic snorkeling, famous surf spots, and incredible sunsets. Everything you desire in a dream get-away is located on the sunny South Shore of Kauai. Surfers know this location as one of the best surf spots on Kauai’s south shore: PK’s, Centers, and Acid Drop. Two of the most famous snorkeling spots are a few feet away, Lawai Beach on the right and Prince Kuhio Beach on the left of our condo.

You can watch humpback whales, spinner dolphins, and sea turtles from the living room and lanai. Our Kuhio Shores condo is right next door to one of the best restaurants on the island, The Beach House. Less than five minutes away, you can golf on two major golf courses (Kiahuna Country Club and the championship Poipu Bay Resort Golf Course).

Our one bedroom, one bath, 865 square foot condo sleeps two people. Completely remodeled in Dec. 2007, it now has travertine tile through out, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and two HDTV's. It has been decorated with a tropical Hawaiian flair with unobstructed views from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and, of course, the lanai. Here you can enjoy the swaying palm trees, warm tropical breezes, and the most beautiful sunsets on earth. Features include a king-size bed and fully-equipped kitchen. We have tried to include everything possible to enhance your comfort and enjoyment.

Some of the attractions you can enjoy include a helicopter ride to see the island and fly over the famous Napali Coast and Waimea Canyon (the Grand Canyon of Kauai). You may want to visit the Fern Grotto and Spouting Horn (which you can walk to). Restaurants and shops are only a few minutes away in Old Koloa Town (circa. 1830) or the Poipu Shopping Village. You may also want to visit the quaint town of Kapaa, the Kilauea Lighthouse and Port Allen.

Anniversary in Kauai. A wonderful place to stay.

Loved having the ocean 30 feet away. Sitting on the patio watching the morning surfers, and beautiful evening sunsets. A short walk to a snorkeling beach right next door.Great accomodations.

Best Location in Kauai

We have stayed at the Kuhio Shores once before, but in a condo that hadn’t been updated. Karen’s is updated and stylish. The big draw is the magnificent view, so close to the ocean. You could tell Karen is a professional when it comes to rentals. Everything is neat and organized and she anticipates what a vacationer would need. And the chocolate macadamia nut candies were a big hit.

Perfect Honeymoon

I heard about this place through friends that stayed here and it did not disappoint. We stayed for our honeymoon and enjoyed every minute. The location is perfect and allows for easy access to some amazing beaches. The views from the porch were absolutely stunning. The host, Karen, was so great at communicating. We will definitely stay here in the future!

Beautiful, relaxing time on the South Shore

The condo was had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The best part of our time there was sitting on the lanai in the morning and evening looking at the water and all the action; spouting whales in the distance, sea turtles tumbling in the water just off the grass and surfers of all ages. So relaxing. The only minor issue was with the lanai screen door which was very difficult to open and close. Karen said she would report this to the onsite manager, but he never came by. I expect this type of thing is a constant challenge with all the moisture and hard to keep working properly. All in all a wonderful stay, thank you Karen.

Kuhio Shores Perfect Getaway

Stayed here 1st week of October 2024 and it couldn't have been better! Check in/Check out a breeze - the owners were quick to respond on everything. We debated long and hard on 3 different units in Kuhio Shores and so happy we chose this one. To us, the ground floor was the best - being 30 ft from the ocean yet mobile enough to walk to other areas, watching surfers all day, and the best sunset views you can imagine. The unit itself was stocked adequately for us, comfortable bed, solid appliances, etc. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Amazing Ocean Front Condo

My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights at the condo out of a 10 day vacation and it was our favorite property. The condo has everything you need and the kitchen is well stocked. It’s located just steps from the ocean and the Beach House restaurant which has amazing food. We saw beautiful sunsets every night. Communication was easy! We talked about coming back for our anniversary next year. Karen checked in on us right away and she was so helpful.

Quant condo with great location

This one bedroom condo is right on the beach. It is clean and quiet. The beach is not super swimmable, but has great surfing for locals (not beginners) and snorkeling. The location is very central and just a short walk or drive to any where you need to be in the south. The host was responsive and kind. We are already looking to stay here again.

Great condo with a fantastic view

This very nice condo has everything you need for a comfortable stay. From the well equipped kitchen to the comfortable bed, we felt relaxed and at home here. It even had AC(although the ceiling fans meant we didn’t need it much. The real reason to stay here, however, is the location and view. You can pull the chairs out into the lawn and watch sunsets and sunrises! Just next door is a small public area the fills up with people to watch but you get it right off your lanai! During daylight hours there are also surfers right there providing great entertainment. Beaches, restaurants, and shopping are all nearby - including the fantastic Old Town Koloa! The bonus is Karen is a great communicator and very responsive host. We’d rent her place again in a minute!

From the time we arrived, relaxation set in. I think we had a great location with the perfect host. Karen was helpful and communicative and answered every question I had.

Magical

From reserving online to walking in the door, the process was seamless. Karen was very helpful and her attention to detail was amazing. We had no trouble finding the condo and WOW….when we walked in the door and saw the spectacular view, we knew we had come upon a jewel. The condo was clean, nicely appointed and the same attention to detail was evident throughout the condo. I can’t say enough positive, glowing things about our first time in Hawaii. We enjoyed every minute. Watching the surfers, the turtles feeding right along the shoreline, sunrises and sunsets from the lawn just a few feet from the patio door….it was all magical. Karen is a superb host. We will return to paradise.

Great location

The location was awesome. Take ten steps off your lanai and you can watch both the sunrise and sunset. It was clean, everything necessary was provided and the bed was comfortable. Karen responded immediately when we asked about early check in. Only negative was the rattan couch and chair. They are not comfortable and for me with minor back issues it took some of the enjoyment out of our trip. But all in all, I would recommend this place. Thanks Karen

Another great stay!

We stayed here in 2020 and liked it so much we wanted to stay in the same place again! Love being able to walk right out on the grass and watch sunsets or whales or surfers or just read a book! There is everything you could need in the unit - great Tommy Bahama beach chairs/umbrella, beach towels (although there should be more than 3 regular bath towels/washclothes for a week's stay - and shampoo would be nice!), spices, appliances, etc. The bed wasn't as comfortable as I remember but slept OK anyway. Great TV. Great location to discover the island. Close to Puka dogs and the fabulous Thai food truck, too! No white pineapple to be found on the island this time, tho so that was disappointing but not the fault of Kuhio Shores. :) We'll be back again!

Beautiful ocean front stay!

Beautiful oceanfront views and access to the well maintained grass area right out of the door. A couple people walked by to get to their condos via the grass area, but nothing that felt imposing. The condo is decorated so nicely and there's everything you would need to cook in the kitchen. Bed is very comfortable. We really appreciated the beach chairs, beach umbrella, nice beach towels and the coolers with the cooling pacs that were provided for guests. There was an occasional moldy smell in the condo, but it was fleeting, not something noticable all the time. May need to have the builidng inspector look into that. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We loved our stay at Kuhio Shores. The condo was comfortable, quiet, nicely decorated and stocked with everything we needed- including sharp knives (I don't think I've ever stayed someplace with good knives!) And, the view! Not only do you get to enjoy a full oceanfront view on the lanai, but also at the dining table, on the couch and in the kitchen. We watched the sunrise and sunset everyday and loved every minute.

Beautiful and Relaxing Location

The property is exactly as described. The condo was clean and well maintained. The A/C was a great perk to cool down at bedtime. On our first two days there we were able to enjoy a surfing competition from out lanai! If you look closely during high tide you can see sea turtles swimming by. The location is secluded yet within short distances to Poipu Beach and Spouting Horn. There are many local shops and restaurants within a short drive. Communication with the owner was very helpful when needed. I would strongly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing location on Kauai.
