Recently upgraded - 2-Bedroom\/2.5 Baths with Panoramic Views!
About this apartment rental
Breathtaking views of the ocean, coastline, lush green hills, and palms! With a picturesque ocean view, our top floor condo offers privacy, cooling trade winds and panoramic ocean vistas which a camera can't begin to capture. We could see sail boats on the ocean and whales’ out in the distance. Crashing waves, migrating whales and sunrise/sunset views are what you will see as you relax on the lanai or in the living space. Our unit is a spacious 2-bedroom, 2.5 bath with over 1100 sq. ft. of living space. Master bedroom has king size bed, fully private en suite bathroom, and Air Conditioning. The ultra-luxurious, Cal king size bed, a top-of-the-line resort style mattress, is the most comfortable bed we have ever slept on. We use high thread count sheets. The guest bedroom has 2 twin beds, and it can be converted to a king size upon request, and Air Conditioning. Ocean breezes cool you naturally as they are pulled through the living room sliding glass doors. The unit is designed to maximize privacy with the living and dining space on the first level and bedrooms on the second level. For your comfort, beach chairs, soft beach towels, and more are included for your days at the beach. This designer’s living room furniture is very comfortable perfect for laying back to watch the waves, listen to CDs, or watch cable TV. This brand-new Hawaiian dining room table with comfy chairs is your exclusive seat to spot playful spinner dolphins. On our large lanai are four chairs and 2 tables; you will be so comfortable; you may not want to leave. Seeing a rainbow, or the moon shimmering over the water will create lifetime memories. Recently upgraded well-equipped gourmet kitchen includes high quality new appliances, dishwasher, microwave, oven and refrigerator with filtered water and ice dispenser. There is high speed wireless internet to keep you connected, master bedroom and the living room has its own TV with cable service. Beach chairs, soft beach towels, umbrellas, cooler, aqua shoes, snorkeling sets, and more are included for your days at the beach. Be sure to ask about all the beach amenities we provide. A full-size washer and dryer are also in the unit. Because we know you are probably tired and hungry after your long journey, we give you an 'Aloha Basket' with snacks and coffee, so that you can immediately begin to relax. The condo complex itself offers several amenities. There is a private swimming saltwater pool and heated spa central to your building. A lighted tennis court and a protected lava rock barbecue grill pavilion are also onsite. Poipu is on the Southern and sunniest point of Kauai. Poipu Beach Park is a short 6 block walk away. The surrounding lava rocks at that beach create a protected swimming area perfect for children. At the adjacent beach you can swim with sea turtles and boogie board. Surfing is also close by at the Hyatt and Marriott Resorts' public beaches and Shipwrecks Beach. A short ride or doable walk from the condo provides more surfing, snorkeling and wave boarding opportunities. Poipu also hosts an array of restaurants, shopping experiences and farmers markets.

The amenities and location of this property made our visit to Kauai a 10 out of 10.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this place! Check-in and check-out was very straightforward and the property management team were quick to respond to our queries.
The view from the balcony was beautiful (just as you see in the pictures) and it was the perfect location/accommodation for our family of four. Our kids appreciated all the beach amenities they provided. The weather was cool enough that we didn't need the AC in either of the rooms, and this place only added to the overall fantastic time we had in Kauai. If we ever come back, we'll likely look to stay here again!

The views were outstanding from everywhere in the unit. Nice modern updates with all the amenities & accessories needed for vacation. Good easy access to beaches, restaurants & shopping. Nice quiet area. I would highly recommend & would stay again.

Great location and property. Be advised you can use the shower but not bathtub. Owners provide lots of beach toys, chairs, and boogie boards, which was really nice.

This was our first trip to Hawaii so we didn’t know what to expect. We opened the front door of this property and saw straight through to the magnificent ocean view from the lanai. We sat looking at that view every sunrise and every sunset. The location in Poi’pu is perfect, close to great restaurants and shops. Everything was clean and well organized when we arrived. We really appreciated the binder of information about restaurants, grocery shopping, farmers markets and other helpful stuff. Evelyn was very helpful and super responsive. We can’t wait to be back in Kaua’i! 🌴🌺🌞🍍

We enjoyed our stay. Our host is a great communicator and went all out to accommodate us.

Great Stay, would stay here again. The unit was very clean and comfortable, and Evelyn was very responsive to any questions we had. Excellent location between several great beaches.
I made the mistake of assuming "Air Conditioning" meant Central A/C as I am used to. I was disappointed it was only portable air conditioner units with window vents in the upstairs bedrooms, which are loud to sleep with, but that's on me for not clarifying further. There was no A/C in the downstairs living area, just a fan, so when you came home from a day out it was very warm downstairs and opening the patio and front doors never really cooled it down.
The upstairs carpet and baths could use a refresh, but was otherwise comfortable as long as the a/c unit was on.
None of these are dealbreakers--we'd stay here again.
5.0
Evelyn was very communicative from months to days before the reservation. The property was well maintained, and all important things to know for check in/check out and settling in were written out in detail. Will look up this property again if I get another chance to visit Kauai.

Everything was great except the unit below was smoking cigarettes and marijuana even though it was a nonsmoking facility!

We loved our Stay! Perfect Location in Poipu for my family. We enjoyed watching the ocean from the living room and bedroom. Sea Turtles swimming right outside the property. Poipu Beach in walking distance. The condo was clean and quiet and we were welcomed with a 100% aloha spirit! Fully equipped with everything you need to go to the beach. I would love to stay here again!!
5.0
Our family had a great time at the Poipu property! The facility was great, close location to area beaches and an amazing clean and refreshing pool.
Accommodations were comfortable and felt right at home. Only suggestion would be to add a cutting board in the kitchen (apologies if we missed!) but it was very well stocked and clean.
We left a cooler for other families to use - we needed it for lunches & drinks on the beach. And thank you for all the swimming/beach equipment.
Great stay, recommended!
5.0
Perfectly located in Popui with a beatiful ocean view. Mid-way walking distance to both Poipu beach and Shipwreck beach. Direct access to the sandstone trail. The first floor is renovated…but the second floor (2 bedrooms) is not. The carpet is really old and it gets really stuffy and hot. Both rooms have AC units but they are very loud and impossible to sleep with. There are ceiling fans but the windows cannot be opened making nights a little uncomfortable. A change of upstairs carpet, central AC and fixing the windows would really transform this condo into a real gem and luxurious perfectly located condo.

The condo was very spacious and great for our family of 5. The views were beautiful and it was just a short walk to the beach and close to other activities. Everything was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay!

Clean place with a great view. Well stocked kitchen. Nice extras for beach days. Very short drive to the restaurants and shops. Beautiful walk to see sunrise (access one driveway over to lighthouse trail) and sunset (gate on west side of property). Smoke smell upstairs in the evening was present for us too.

This is a great place. Wonderfully views. Very clean. The pool is nice. Great beach nearby. Loved spending time on the balcony.

Wonderful stay! We especially loved the view from the balcony! The welcome basket was also an extra special touch. Would stay here again!

Convenient location and beautiful views. The house provides beach towels and chairs.
5.0
Easy walk to the beach! Beautiful Views from balcony and property! Nice pool-not busy. Overall we loved our stay at the house. The only downside that is out of control of the owners is a lower neighbor or guest of the property who smoked in the mornings and later afternoon. The smell would creep into upstairs bedrooms, especially in early morning. Not a great way to wake up, but again that’s not the owners fault, but something people should be aware of in case it’s a tigger.
5.0
Everything was great for all of us. Having on-suites in both bedrooms made getting ready in the mornings a time saver. Overall a perfect place for 2 families.

My husband, adult daughter and her 3 month old stayed for five nights in this beautiful condo. With the baby and my husband working (great WiFi) we spent more time in the condo than a normal vacation so we were happy with how comfortable it was. And the view was amazing. We cooked most meals in the well stocked kitchen.
We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Communication with the host was informative and plentiful. Yes there are stairs but they were not as bad as I feared (short flights, well marked and safe, good handrails).
We walked to Shipwreck Beach but drove everywhere else, although without the baby we could have walked to Brennecke’s and Poipu Beach. Although we did not see whales, we did see sea turtles on Poipu Beach!
5.0
The room was very spacious and clean. The kitchen had updated appliances and was stocked with all the essentials. 1 boogie board, a couple kickboards, snorkel gear, two beach chairs, and tennis rackets were there for your use. 5-10 min walk to Poipu Beach, or 10-15 min walk to Shipwreck beach. We received lots of communications from the management company before and during our stay to ensure everything was great. Our experience was great here.
5.0
The condo was perfect. Clean, comfortable, and close to great beaches and food! We saw so many whales and turtles from the balcony! Check in and check out was fast and simple with great communication from the property manager from the moment we booked it to when we were checking out. Would definitely come back!

We spent three nights here. The lanai was our favorite as we saw many whales frolicking in the ocean. Everything was just as represented. A couple of minor maintenance problems that will likely be resolved before the next guests. Great location and lovely setting.

Great views from the balcony to monitor whales spouting and on the check out day, they were breaching. Enjoyed seeing the turtles at Poipu Beach.

We really enjoyed your condo in Poipu. This it the perfect location. Thank You!
5.0
This condo had everything we needed to enjoy our stay in Kauai, even though it was very easy simply to settle in on the lanai and gaze at the swaying palms over the sea. You do really need a car, which is easily parked right outside, but there are also easy walks right out your front door.
It was a pity that there was some structural issues with the lanai so orange snow fencing across the front of it. This was more an aesthetic issue that did not prevent us from using it.
5.0
This was our second stay at The Makahuena, and this condo is our favorite of all the places we have stayed in Kauai.
The Makahuena is very well located, easy walking distance to beaches both east and west. The property is beautiful, with a well maintained pool, hot tub and surrounding garden, as well as a wonderful view of the ocean and sunsets.
The unit itself was very clean, nicely furnished, with a well equipped kitchen and loads of beach toys. The main floor, including the kitchen, appears to have been upgraded recently.
This condo and The Makahuena property are a great place to stay. Thank you.

Great spot in southern Kauai, saw whales from our deck, easy walk to the beach, great communication from the owners as well.

Really lovely property. Views from the primary bedroom and living room were amazing! We spent a lot of time just watching the ocean. Short drive to multiple beaches. The condo was clean and big and had a fully stocked kitchen.

We’ve stayed at many different places in Kauai and this condo is very clean, and more private than I thought. It’s a corner unit and no one can look into your living room . We thoroughly enjoyed our family time there.
5.0
Very well equipped kitchen, updated furniture specially downstairs, full size washer and dryer, VERY nice welcome basket with goodies and a pineapple, comfy beds, pillows and towels., A/C in bedrooms, beach chairs, etc. Location is great, close to nice beaches and restaurants. Wi-fi was good too so my boys could do school work and zoom classes without a problem. Having breakfast on the lanai with that beautiful view every morning was breathtaking and relaxing. Novella was really nice, always trying to accommodate our needs whenever possible and replying right away. Public areas and outside of condos need some renovation but inside our condo was great. Just be advised of all the steps to get to the condo and then some more steps up to the bedrooms and 2 full baths. Downstairs of the condo there's a 1/2 bath. I didn't realized the number of steps before I booked and my 77 year old mother had a little trouble going up and down all those steps all the time. Overall it's a great property, very comfortable, beautiful views and we had all we needed in the kitchen! Thank you for everything Novella, we miss Kauai already, can't wait to go back :o))

Easy checkin. A gift basket was waiting for us. Walk to Poipu Beach where turtles and monk seals rest on the beach. Have a sunset cocktail on the cliffs at the property.

Comfortable well supplied condo with beautiful ocean views. Very responsive communications with property manager. Recommend slip restistant mat for tub in master as no hold bars. Dissappointed unit washer wasn't working, but Evelyn made arrangements to use washer in unit on same level. Unavoidable delay in delivery of new washer. The basket of snacks,candy and fresh pineapple was appreciated. Believe the reviews about numerous steps...not for the mobility -challanged but worth the view. Enjoyed our stay.
5.0
We highly recommend this condo.
It was clean, comfortable, and quiet. We loved that we could see the sunrise and sunset from the property. Our favorite thing was sitting on the lanai and listening to the waves crashing.
On the downside the washing machine didn’t work and the hot tub was closed during our stay. Be aware that there are a lot of stairs.
We would definitely stay here again.

Great property, however washing machine broken, needs A/C down stairs
