About this apartment rental
Located in the premier Manualoha community of Poipu Kai resort, our 2 bedroom, 2 bath townhouse style condo is a short downhill stroll to the beach with a fabulous ocean-front pool, a tennis center with 8 courts and landscaped grounds with access to all nearby amenities.
Beautifully renovated and decorated, over 1,300 square feet, perfect for two - four adults or a small family. This is a premier end unit offering maximum privacy for your vacation. There are many windows providing great air-flow to the floral trade winds for cooling day and night. Enjoy your favorite beverage while viewing the spectacular ocean-view sunset from the upstairs lanai. The well-stocked kitchen and outdoor grills allow you to have meals at home, dining outdoors on the main level lanai or in the dining room using the unique hand carved monkey-pod table. The Hawaiian décor and art, some by local artists, provides island ambiance.
The main level of our condo features a large living room with wall-to-wall windows, an open plan kitchen and dining room, a bedroom and bathroom. The living room has a 58 inch flat-screen TV, two recliners and a large sofa for relaxing. The kitchen has black granite tile counters, updated appliances and all the amenities you need to prepare a great meal. The dining room table seats six. The main level bedroom has a king size bed and the full bathroom is located directly across from the bedroom. Both the living room and bedroom have ceiling fans to augment the airflow provided by the cooling trade winds.
A large covered lanai, accessible from the living room, adds 200+ square feet to the living area. Adjacent to the lanai is a grassy area for tanning, planning your day or just relaxing. There are two reclining lounge chairs and a table that seats six for outside use.
The upstairs master suite is a special place. It features two separate lanais. The rear lanai offers an amazing ocean view and is a great spot for late afternoon cocktails or dining, and to view a breath-taking sunset. There is a bright elevated study/sitting area with a full desk located next to in the master suite and a 48 inch flat screen TV in the bedroom. The large master bathroom has two sinks, a walk-in glass block shower and a special etched window that provides beautiful views. The walk-in closet offers plenty of room for hanging and storing your personal items.
The stunning ocean-front Manualoha pool is a short stroll from our front door and has an outdoor shower and rest rooms. The tennis center is just across the grounds and offers weekly drill sessions with the pro, private lessons, or they will happily assist you in setting up a game with locals or visitors. For golfers there are several championship tracks with great ocean views nearby and tee times are very accessible. Brenneckes, Poipu, Sheraton and Shipwreck beaches are all within walking distance. For the more adventurous, close by there is a spectacular hike along the ocean cliffs, past Poipu Bay golf course to the wonderful Mahaulepo Beach.
Our Poipu location is ideal for accessing all of the attractions of Kauai. Waimea Canyon on the West side is a must see - it is called the "Grand Canyon of Hawaii". Hikers will love the variety of hikes into and around the canyon, some of which end with breathtaking views of the Na Pali coast. Nearby Koloa Town offers restaurants, art galleries, wine shops, a local fish market as well as a weekly farmers market. Ku'kuiula village, about 2 miles away, is a newer outdoor mall with unique upscale boutiques and some fantastic dining options. The Kilauea lighthouse is less than an hour away, and from there you can continue to Princeville and Hanalei Bay for north shore beach and shopping options and views of the Na Pali coast. You will love the beauty and spirit of Kauai, and discover first-hand why it is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Our Island home is very special and a great location to enjoy all that Kauai has to offer. Set back from the main walking path, it provides privacy, a feature not always found in a condo. We look forward to making your next vacation one that you will remember for years to come.

This is a great place for a small family or a couple. We loved having the kitchen to do a little bit of cooking and save money on food. It was so close to so many amazing things, but best of all a great swimming beach and a great snorkeling beach.
4.8
This condo was everything we wanted and more. It was a 3-5 minute walk from two beaches, one with a couple of cool places to eat and grab a couple of gifts, good for snorkeling, turtle watching, and with two lifeguard stations; the other that was better for boogie boarding but with no lifeguard. The condo itself was peaceful, beautiful, and spacious. The grounds are lovely, too. We had trouble with one air mattress but the property manager was able to point us to a second air mattress in another room that worked perfectly. The only things that could have been better would have been a television that was easier to use (we wanted to watch the Olympics so had to switch to one or the other remote and it was constantly challenging despite the accurate instructions in the guest book) and if there had been newer and nicer frying pans because we wanted to cook our own meals. The three available for use were very scratched up and ragged. The challenges were insignificant compared with how much we loved staying at this location.
4.8
It was a wonderful visit and a great location. Loved the two pools and being so close to the ocean. Also, accompanied our family with having a pack and play, high chair, and a blowup mattress. Had all you needed for the beach…chairs, umbrella, cooler, snorkeling gear, etc. Would definitely stay here again!
4.8
I have stayed in many condos but this one by far the best. Comfortable beds, cool breezes to cool you down at night. Over all the condo was large enough to accommodate our family of four.
My husband was suppose to come but he passed this last December so this was great place to relax and grieve. Thank you for a wonderful place.

We had a lovely time at Manualoha in Poipu Kai. The property was custom made for us , especially when our son’s family and a 5 year old took over the upstairs. Plenty of room for all. A short walk to the pool and beach…we had a great time.

The place was nicer than we expected. I wouldn't mind staying here again if we ever make it back to the island.

We spent Christmas on the island and the house was perfect for our family of 5 and for hosting Christmas dinner with the in-laws. Beautiful place and very comfortable. Loved being able to walk to the beach as well as the use of the pools. Would definitely recommend staying here and would love to return.
4.8
This was the perfect base for our first trip to Kauai. In beautiful Poipu just a short walk to the beaches and restaurants. Very well stocked with everything we needed from spices to towels and beach gear and everything in between.
Loved the upstairs lanai for breakfast and sunsets and the main floor one for a shady spot to plan the day.
The Manualoha pool is perfect. Shade, grass, sun and ocean views. A couple times we had it all to ourselves but also met great people there.
Don’t think twice. Book it!
A suggestion to the owners to put in a new lock box. We struggled with it a bit, otherwise everything was great.

Second visit staying in this condo. Love it.

We like the area, we have stayed in the Poipu area for 11 vacations. The downstairs bedroom does not benefit much from the trade winds as much as the upstairs master bedroom. The provided fan helped out but it is loud.
We ate out on the patio everyday. My grandaughter was either in the ocean or in the pool. Poipu beach is about a 5 or so minute walk
4.8
Our family of 4 loved our stay here. It’s just minutes walk to Brennecke’s beach where people body surf & boogie board. If you enjoy early morning walks/ jogs, there is a lovely trail on a bluff to Shipwreck beach. We saw many green sea turtles in the area which is a special sighting. The area is full of happy (sunburned) tourists, condos and plenty of restaurants and beaches to delight!

What an amazing property and island. Enjoyed every minute and the responsiveness of the owner was top notch. This property was a perfect location, spacious and definitely made a relaxing vacation even more relaxing. A+++

Location was great, close to pool and beach. The upstairs office off bedroom added a nice space for the two kids. The pool/beach toys were so welcome. And the kitchen had everything we ever needed.

House well equipped. Beach gear available. You could tell that the owners have great energy. And enjoy relaxed beach living!! We will be back

Our group of four adults had a great week! The condo is spacious and comfortable. Beds very comfortable. The location is perfect for walking to the beach and walking to both Kalapaki Joe’s and Brenneke Beach Broiler for dinner. We spent time at the pool overlooking the ocean every day. Check in was super easy and we had zero complaints in renting this place. Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much Lynn and Marshall. Your rental home is beautiful, and so comfortable. It was well equipped. The location great. We loved every moment in Kauai. We were worried there was no air conditioning in the condo but that wasn’t an issue. Ceiling fans and the trade winds made it comfortable. Thank you again for great stay and also the info for recommendations for places to visit etc. We would love to visit again. From friends from central Canada from the province of Manitoba and from Northern Canada the Yukon

We stayed 3 weeks in the unit and couldn’t be more pleased. The unit was clean and spacious and the location couldn’t be better. Beautiful sunsets from the lanai off the master bedroom and the lanai off the living room offered privacy and outdoor dining for any meal. The owners and local manager responded quickly to any questions. We would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing vacation and our stay in Poipu was the icing on top. It was a short walk to Poipu beach where my children were able to snorkel in the “kiddie Pool “. We saw a couple of Honu resting on the beach and in the water. We were able to use the beach chairs, and umbrella that were provided to get the most beach time.
It was a short walk to see the sunrise on the other side of shipwreck beach. The pool had an amazing view as did the upstairs lanai and bathroom.
The condo was clean, had many kitchen appliances, and spices galore. My husband truly enjoy this as he cooked almost every meal and it was nice to be able to use what was on hand rather than buy at the store and leave behind. There were also games and books but we did not use them but in case you get some rain they are there for your use.
There is also a binder with recommendations and gentle reminders. I loved that Marshall thought of all the little details.
The island contact was also very responsive.
I can not say enough good things. Just trust that you will have an amazing time.
Great place and location!
4.8
Great spot for our little family. The place has so much to offer - we love cooking and the grill is just steps out front. The back lanai gave us so much more outdoor playing time. Their pantry is stocked and there were ample (unexpected, but great) amenities! Mahalo! We will be back again.
4.8
Perfect beach location. Better stocked with all the regular little household necessities (zip lock bags, oil, spices, beach gear, shower stuff, etc) than usual. Upstairs dual shower with ocean view is a real treat. I’d love to stay again.

Superb accommodations
I loved that the master bedroom was so spacious and upstairs away from the rest of the living space. The lanai and backyard were a wonderful space to hang out and read or share a meal together. The location is close to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island. It was just a wonderful experience overall.

We had a great stay in Kauai! Loved the condo for the 4 of us and the short walk to the beach.
Owners were great and the condo had everything that we needed to make meals and enjoy our vacation.
4.8
This condo was the best stocked of any place we have ever stayed - it actually had enough paper products of all kinds to last our whole stay. The kitchen had everything we could POSSIBLY want, and we enjoyed our meals in the cool breeze on the lanai every night. I have to say that the lack of curtains on the shower windows was a bit shocking at first - but hey, I guess no one was looking in at that angle. If I were to make one request it would be for another door on the upstairs bathroom. Two doorways and one door was a tad awkward. We had a great stay and would certainly recommend this place to family groups or intimate friends.

We absolutely loved this condo. It is well equipped and we had a great time here. It was in a great location to go to Waimea Canyon (had an awful rainy day and fog so we never did see it) and then to go to the fern grotto tour which was a beautiful. Lots of pots and pans for cooking and spices too. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us.
