My family and I had a wonderful stay at this vacation rental. The location was awesome and we loved the views had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Definitely would consider staying here again.
10.0
Everything about our stay here was perfect: it has every amenity you could ever need (from beach gear, to comfy beds, to kitchen utensils, to AC!); it's conveniently located by all the hot spots on the south side of the island; and communication from the owner was amazing throughout. Best of all, the view from the balcony was unmatched! I wish we could sip coffee or mai tai's on it forever. We hope to return and cannot say enough good things about Deb and her home!

We arrived at sunset. Everyone’s mouth dropped at the amazing view. From the beginning Deb was very communicative. The place was updated and nicely furnished with very comfortable beds, as well as very organised. The place was a short walk to the beach where we saw monk seals, sea turtles, and dolphins. We will definitely rebook again, thank you for the amazing experience!

The villa was perfect for our stay in Kauai. The owner gave us lots of good advice and information prior to arrival.
Everything was spotlessly clean and the view from the balcony was sensational. We especially enjoyed a drink in the evening watching the sunset.
We hope to go back.

We had a fantastic time at the condo. Amazing views and it was very clean. We would definitely book again!

This was as our second time staying at this condo. The vicinity to the beach, restaurants and shopping makes it an ideal location. The property is quiet, the staff and other tenants are always friendly. The pool is great when you need a little time away from the sand and salt. My recommendation couldn't be any stronger! If you are looking for a great place to stay while exploring Kauai, you've found it. Being on the third level affords excellent views of the sunset, ocean and mountains. You will not be disappointed!

The owner is not lying when she says that this condo has wonderful views. Incredible, views we will never forget. From the minute we booked, the owner was communicative and so helpful. She helped make our trip what it was as she offered advice and made us feel welcome. This is a luxurious condo with everything you could need for a stay. We loved it and hope to return one day.

Beautiful, well appointed condo in Poipu, Kauai! Gorgeous view from the lanai overlooking the ocean and the mountains! We loved hearing the birdsong every morning on the lanai and the sunsets were gorgeous! The condo was lovely with everything we needed to be comfortable. Modern kitchen with beautiful counters and plenty of cookware and dishes. First class furnishings and

We had an excellent stay at Deb's home. I was a little nervous about renting a home as I've always stayed at a big resort when traveling but from the moment I booked she was wonderful with giving insight about the area and recommendations on restaurants close by for my picky kids or answering any question I may have. The place was extremely clean, welcoming and felt like home to us. And I can't get over the views, they were amazing! We had picture perfect views of the sunset every night and I loved being able to relax in the morning with my coffee while sitting on the lanai watching the ocean or looking off in the distance towards the mountains. We were in a great location with being a short walk to the beach where my daughter would help the volunteers count the sea turtles each night. During our stay Deb even checked in on us to make sure we didn't need anything and that everything was going well. She went well above and beyond and was an amazing host! I hope to return to Kauai in the future and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay here. The views are beautiful. Walking distance to the beach is a big plus. The property was clean, well organized and comfortable. And it was nice to be provided with beach chairs, boogie boards and beach toys.

No regrets at all about our choice of lodging. Homeowner was incredibly communicative throughout the process. Home was incredibly clean when we arrived and well stocked with needed items. Location was great - well landscaped condo complex within short walk to beach/restaurants, easy parking right outside the stairs leading to the condo. Lanai views were incredible - expansive ocean/mountain views. Would definitely consider returning on a future trip to Kauai.

This was the perfect property for our stay. The views are incredible! The home had everything we needed, including the air conditioning. It's in walking distance to Poipu Beach which we really enjoy. Excellent communications with the hostess. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay very much. We really appreciated all of the conveniences and comfort!

Our stay in this condo was great. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Great views from the lani for whale watching and the sunset. The owner was exceptional in her communication with us. Will stay here again!
10.0
You can’t beat the views! We watched whales breach in the morning and had the most amazing sunsets. The condo is a nice 5-10 min walk to a boogie board beach, playground, family friendly beach, snorkeling, turtle watching, and Brenneckes restaurant. The pool was great as well. Costco and Target are on the way from the airport so it’s easy to get necessities at the same price as the mainland.
Deb is a GEM. Quick communication, great recommendations. Our Alaska flight got changed last minute and she was able to accommodate a late check out.
We will be back!

Poipu is the place to stay for a home base in Kauai. Close, safe beaches, centralized access to the island, 15 miles from the airport. This rental back patio has some of the best views of Poipu's scenery/beach/ocean, being on the 3rd floor--even better than the local hotel beach views, in my opinion. The unit is situated so it catches an unobstructed, scenic view of the sunset. For getting the high view point, the unit is on the 3rd floor so it's a trek up 2 flights of stairs, so be mindful if you have trouble going up/down stairs. Very clean and well equipped. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, full kitchen. Equipped with beach chairs, cooler, boogie board. Absolutely no complaints and I would 100% come back here again.
10.0
This property has everything you would need to make your vacation spectacular. We travel A LOT and this location has to be one of the best rental homes we've visited. Furnished with everyday pantry items, beach gear, full kitchen and an
AMAZING view from the lanai to enjoy coffee in the morning and sunsets in the evening. Communication with the owner was great. I'd highly recommend this property. You won't regret a thing!

The property owner was just excellent with her communication and we were able to do a late checkout.
The unit itself was beautifully decorated and very spacious. The highlight is the deck with the views and proximity to Poipu beach.
I would highly recommend this property.

Deborah's condo is just amazing. So much about it worked for us as a family - the place itself: spacious, lovely decor, excellent views! We'd come back in a heartbeat and hope to in the future. This is a very special place.

Our 16 year old son told us this was one of the best places we had ever stayed on vacation, and I agree with him. Lots of space, updated kitchen, comfortable beds, A/C, and the view! The photos don’t do this condo justice. Located on top floor of Ni Kai Villas, the view sweeps around to include the mountains and the beach. Our two teen boys walked 5 min down to Brennecke Beach every day to boogie board, provided in condo, and we also used the condo’s 4 beach chairs and umbrella almost every day. I visited the v clean pool regularly, appreciating the bit of shade the pool chairs get in the afternoon. Shopping a short drive away, ideally located. Deborah was very quick to respond and v helpful, recommended a surf lesson at Kalapaki Beach & lunch spot that turned into one of the highlights of our week. I’m only giving this place a five star review becuz VRBO doesn’t give option of 6 stars. I hope you snag it and enjoy it as much as our family did!

We had the trip of a lifetime in Kauai at Deborah’s magical villa! The pictures don’t do it justice. The location is very private yet is walkable to all the beaches, hot spots to eat, snorkeling, etc. Deborah was very responsive before and during the trip to answer questions and point is in the right direction. The space was perfect for our family of 4. Kitchen was well stocked, and washer / dryer worked great. We would come back here in a heartbeat! Thank you Deborah for being such a wonderful hostess!

We've stayed at various condos/houses in Kauai. This is one of the best and an ideal condo for families with 1-3 kids. Plenty of room and the views are excellent. Ocean and mountain views all day! The condo was clean, the beds comfy, didn't hear any noise from the neighboring units. The kitchen was well stocked, plenty of beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, etc. Easy walking distance to Poipu beach and Brennekes. The pool on the property is great as is the entire property. Beautiful landscaping and extremely well maintained. Thoroughly impressed with the grounds maintenance crew. We only visited the pool once but, we walked by it a lot. It was never over crowded. Plenty of chairs to layout on. We highly recommend this unit and will be booking for next year very soon! Thanks Deborah!

Deb did a great job reaching out and communicating with us every step of the way. She made sure we made it in and notified us of a possible water outage during our stay. The condo was as described and in a wonderful location. The unit was on the top floor with great views of the water and mountains in the distance. The condo was clean and in great shape. The amenities in the condo were perfect for my family. I would recommend staying at in this unit.

Great unit just outside the beach hustle and bustle. Spectacular ocean views from lania. Spectacaluar, lush green landscape everywhere you go. You will enjoy your morning walks along the beach. Have a Puka Dog at Benneckes across from the beach. Great, engaged and helpful owner who gives you all the information you need to have a great vacation. ENJOY!

WOW. What a great place to stay for a week. It has all the amenities that you could need. Including a few items to make a trip to the beach. It was relaxing, great views, and I would highly recommend it.

Once again, our experience was amazing. We love staying here and our communication with Deb was wonderful. The condo is so clean, fully stocked, and quiet. Our family of 5 fit perfectly and we wouldn’t change a thing.
Thank you Deb, for another relaxing stay. We can’t wait to come back!

This is a gorgeous condo that is perfectly appointed and accessorized with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The view is very understated in the rental advertisement. It is 180 degrees of water and the mountains. We saw whales spouting and breeching from our deck several days. The pool is located so it overlooks the ocean. The host was very responsive and communicative. She offered ideas about what we needed to reserve and plan ahead. It allowed us to enjoy everything we wanted to do even though we were there at a peak season. We did not want to leave and will definitely return.

Fantastic view, location to beach and shops, very clean and comfortable. We walked alot, close by restaurant and beaches, which we prefer on our vacations to get out of the car. We loved Little Fish coffee shop and enjoyed the Koloa fish market for lunch, took it to the beach park, highly recommend. The pool was perfect even if there was some work being done nearby, we had a great time and would definitely come back.

Best of all condos we’ve rented in Poipu: quiet, lanai angled so sun doesn’t hit until mid afternoon (then shades are great), coffee on lanai at daybreak with the sound of the surf. Deb has anticipated every need. It has everything one could want, including a welcome bottle of wine. We’ll be back!

Great stay at this property. Wonderful location. More sun on the South shore. Can walk to Poipu Beach to see turtles and occasional seal. Was wonderful watching the sunrise from the balcony every morning. Owners are great and excellent with communication. Highly recommend this property.

Staying at this VRBO was akin to a high-end hotel with a world-class view. The condo has a spa-like atmosphere with upscale, comfortable furniture, all possible appliances, and every possible bath amenity. There is air conditioning and ceiling fans, making it a comfortable retreat in any weather. (During the heat of the day we could sit, stay cool, and enjoy a 180-degree view of the ocean) The location was perfect; near the best swimming beach and surf-shop in Poipu. Our group included four adults. In the evenings, we walked a short distance to Poipu Beach Park to watch the sea turtles or cooled off in the swimming pool. The owner thoughtfully includes beach amenities including body boards, beach chairs, beach towels and a large cooler. We arrived to a chilled bottle of white wine.... very nice! The owner was responsive to all our requests. She checked in with us after our arrival to make sure we had everything we need. I'll look for this VRBO again or one from the same owner. Thank you.
