About this apartment rental

(Please note that we refurnished our home in November 2023. These pictures reflect the new furnishings and decor. Also please note that we changed the beds in the guest bedroom from a queen to two twin-xl beds. This allows greater flexibility and comfort for our guests)

This immaculate luxury condo, perched on an emerald bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, offers spectacular views of the surf and the famous Bali Hai mountain range. On Kauai's North Shore, near Hanalei Bay, this 1700-square-foot, ground-floor unit is found in the luxurious Puu Poa condominium complex.

Our guests love Puu Poa 111 as the ground floor location allows them to walk freely out onto the expansive lawn while enjoying spectacular ocean and Bali Hai views from this modern, updated condo. Our guests also love the new and powerful air conditioning system. The air conditioning system is centrally powered and has four individually-controlled zones (living room, kitchen, master bedroom, second bedroom), allowing guests to regulate each room's temperature.

Watch sunsets, whales, dolphins, tropical birds, sailboats and surfers from the private, covered lanai that opens directly onto the lawn overlooking the ocean. Relax, grill and eat on the lanai in any weather. Take the beach chairs out on the lawn and stretch out for sunbathing or relaxing after dark as you watch the stars and listen to the surf. Just a short walk away, across the lush grass, you'll find the heated pool. The complex also has two beautiful pickleball courts (Note that the pickleball nets can be moved in order to play tennis instead of pickleball).

Directly below the Puu Poa complex sits the secluded Hideaways Beach. A favorite of many visitors to the island, Hideaways is a wonderful snorkeling and sun-bathing spot. Right next door and within short walking distance is the spectacular new 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay (formerly the St. Regis Princeville) with several bars/restaurants and an incredible spa.

Enjoy all of this and all the beauty, fun and serenity Hawaii's Garden Island has to offer with Puu Poa #111 as your luxurious, comfortable, vacation home base.

The condo features an Italian-designed, gourmet, eat-in kitchen overlooking a large, open living room and dining area, all offering expansive views of the ocean and mountains. You'll find European furniture, high quality shutters and tiled floors throughout. Designed with attention to promoting a comfortable, bright, airy living space that fully takes advantage of the delightful ocean breezes.

Watch the sun set over the ocean from the living room area or turn on your favorite show on the 55-inch television.

On the covered lanai, use the weber grill to cook your meals. Eat your meals at the teak patio table and relax on the cushioned teak couch.

The kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, wine/beverage cooler, washer/dryer, glass counter-top range, oven and all the pots, pans and utensils needed to prepare any gourmet feast.

The master bedroom has a king-size bed, night stands, 42-inch TV, a computer desk and illuminated closet. The guest bedroom features two twin-xl beds, closet, and a 42-inch TV. There are ceiling fans with lights in each of the bedrooms and in the kitchen dining area and living room.

Enjoy shopping and dining in idyllic Hanalei where you'll find a farmers market, fish market and natural food store. Explore Puu Poa, Lumahai and Hanalei beaches; discover the famous backdrops for dozens of Hollywood films including 'South Pacific' and 'Jurassic Park', and 'The Descendants.'

For the adventurous, explore the island's many spectacular hikes, waterfalls, and outlooks, including the world famous "Kalalau Trail" at the end of Highway 560 (about 29 minutes away).

So you know ....
1. While this is a ground floor unit, there are approximately 24 stairs to get from the parking lot down to the ground floor level
2. While the internet is strong, cell phone coverage is spotty. Verizon coverage seems to be OK, but AT&T and T-Mobile are quite spotty. The way to solve this is to turn on "internet calling" on your phone

We have stayed in the Puu Poa before but this unit was perfect for us. The outside setting on the porch was so nice and the sunsets were amazing. The owner had a lot of information of his favorites in the area and we used his recommendations a lot with great success. Perfect start to our time in Hawaii. Thank You Keith!

What a fabulous stay we had at Puu Poa #111. Keith is such a fantastic host. Apart from the very detailed instructions and info via standard channels, he left a personalized Welcome video message on the Alexa device, which we found such a lovely way of introduction! Keith also regularly checked whether things were ok during our stay. The apartment is beautiful, clean, modern with super comfy mattresses and linen, powerful AC, plus very good appliances and utensils, as well as tons of beach gear. Views from the apartment are to die for, can’t get any better. Plus we loved the ground floor giving us access to the yard and swimming pool. All in all we can’t recommend this place enough, go there and fall in love withe the Kauai North shore just as we did. Thanks again Keith! The Hasler-Zapata famaly

This was a beautiful property. Very clean and nicely furnished. Surroundings were quiet. We were fortunate to experience many beautiful sunsets on the Lanai as well as a huge Rainbow one morning. The property was easy to access. close to the beach, shops and Farmers Markets.

Our stay at this location was amazing. The home was super clean and included so many amenities like snorkel gear, toiletries, even some pantry items for easy cooking. The view from the lanai outside was one of the best we had all during our visit to Kauai. The host was incredibly helpful and attentive.

This roomy condo had everything our family needed. We loved being on the lower level with a spacious lanai and grass to walk out on. We were visited by NeNes, red crested cardinals, myna birds, cattle egrets and sparrows. We saw several albatross fly by. WiFi was great, cell phone coverage was not so good. Sunsets over Bali Hai were phenomenal. We'd love to come back.

Watched whales from the lanai with morning coffee; enjoyed beautiful sunsets from there as well. Best stocked kitchen with appliances and cookware of any of the VRBO’s I have stayed in.
