This is the best unit in the entire building! Top floor, southwest corner - ideal for watching those picture perfect sunsets over the water! The check in process was super easy and the unit had everything we needed. We will be back again soon! 😎

I've visited Kauai several times and this was the third time staying at Kuhio Shores. This unit is breathtaking. The oceanfront views at two sides offer daily sunsets and sea turtles in abundance. The unit is well-stocked. The ventilation was great; air conditioning was not necessary. All seemed idyllic and yet...When we checked into the unit, the hallway bathroom was not working. We received no response when we called the "24/7" numbers. It took two days to fix the toilet, which meant that our friend had to go through our bedroom in order to use a toilet. The three of us are all in our seventies and this was quite awkward for our friend. The person who "helped" us at Poipu 365 was curt. She offered several excuses for why the repair couldn't be done in one day. It took two repairmen to fix the toilet. My wife told both repairmen about an additional problem, a broken toilet seat in our bathroom. After we checked out, we expressed our dissatisfaction with their quality control, as we felt that they were negligent renting a high-quality unit to us without checking the toilet. Their response was again curt and insulting, insisting that their cleaning crew would have noticed a broken toilet. They knew nothing about a broken toilet seat. They acted as though if was all made up and all our fault! This is not what I expected when I rented a beautiful place like Kuhio Shores. I recommend that the owners find a new management team.

Overall had a great stay @ Kuhio Shores 418. Setting was beautiful right on the ocean, sunsets were spectacular, apartment was quite comfortable. Setup was functional, kitchen was more than adequate, would have been nice to have a few more spices and condiments. Lanai was great, the views at sunset from the front room was to die for. The provided beach equipment was nice to have, 2 beaches within easy walking distance. Word of advice: snorkeling goggles will need to be rented or brought with. The only improvement would be to get rid of the louvered doors. The noise travelled throughout the apartment, especially at night. Also, the damn Kauai roosters crow all day, all night. Overall, a very nice stay in a beautiful setting!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Kuhio Shores 418 is such an excellent unit for the perfect Poipu stay. We spent most of our time with the sliding glass door and the windows wide open for the most wonderful fresh island breezes and ocean wave sounds. The unit is well maintained and appointed with everything needed: more than enough towels, great beach gear and coolers, and everything needed to cook. The beds are comfy, the wifi works great, and the views all day are spectacular. Was concerned the restaurant would be noisy but it really wasn't. The AC and fans in the bedrooms and living room made the space extra comfortable for sleeping. Most condos in Hawai’i are not as clean or well cared for as this unit. You cannot beat the ocean front location and view of Kuhio Shores 418, plus it is a 3-5 minute drive from everything you could want in Koloa and Poipu. The management company dropped off the parking pass the next day so we didn’t even need to do a check in at the building. Top to bottom a great experience. We cannot wait to get back to Kuhio Shores 418.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at KS418 many times and love it. Check in / out couldn't be easier. Had minor smoke alarm failure; it was repaired promptly. I have one minor issue; there are new push button switches for lights and fans that are not intuitive - takes some groping plus trial and error to sort them out. I favor old-school toggle switches - simple and intuitive. But this is a minor hassle - probably intended to improve convenience. Clean - yes! I went over the place with a UV light before we moved in and found nothing. The place always seems clean; this time I can confirm it.

When we booked it was the view that hooked us.. and then we discovered so much more! We came to Kauai to enjoy a different type of Hawaii vibe. The first night we wandered into the restaurant next door.. little did we know it was such a hot spot .. we cheered with the crowd as we toasted the green flash ! Morning coffee on the Lanai and watching whales in the distance. We kayaked the with Wailua river with Kauai Kayak and came home to a cool and comfortable spot to watch the sunset on another awesome day. We laughed when our snorkel tour led us to the place right next door that we had checked out the day before. Thanks to Kauai Z-Tourz for putting names to the fishy faces and showing all the best spots. Lawa’i Beach is a great place in the January surf! Check out Eden Coffee right down the street. What a wonderful home base for a comfy bed and a hot shower. Thank you!

Several advantages: The bedroom windows are on the outside of the building Not opening to the exterior walkway – more secure and better breezes. The furniture is comfortable and not overly nice/fussy, so we could feel at home. The condo itself is in great condition, nothing broken or needing to be refreshed, AND very clean. That doesn’t even begin to cover the view! Stunning!Many thanks to property managers, Vicki and Cher Lani at Poipu365. Any (small) issues we mentioned were resolved the same day I texted! Vicki even came by just after we checked in to deliver our welcome package. Really appreciated Cher Lani’s patience with all my questions before booking.

Absolutely stunning location with gorgeous views in every direction. The perfect spot on the South Side - close to all the beaches, shopping and dining. When you walk in there's so much water you feel like you're on a cruise ship! My family of five loved our stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing views of the water and a spacious and well laid-out condo. Great snorkeling just steps away and quick access to Longs, ice cream, Poipu and Brenecke Beaches. Many amenities in this well-stocked unit. The living room and kitchen floors had highly-visible amounts of food (bread crumbs?) on the tile and the area-rugs, and we found garbage under the couch (we had to move it to place a blow up bed). The lanai needed a thorough sweeping and the kitchen table looked like it had been wiped with something greasy (no glass cleaner anywhere in the house to clean it with), toaster was dirty. Towels were lacking for a party of 5, and one blow-up mattress lacked a pump and was un-useable. I left a message about that but never heard back. The water was undrinkable, even for making coffee, and it would be a nice gesture to get a Brita filter or something for renters to not have to purchase loads of bottled water. A lovely stay overall, but not for the December pricing. We also rented a very similar unit in Poipu Shores (unit 303A) that was gorgeous (more up to date), extremely clean and half the cost for the exact same dates.

Gorgeous views & close to everything

Loved view, surfing and diving, hard to leave!

The views from this unit were utterly spectacular (10/10!) and if that’s the only thing that matters to you, this is an amazing place to stay. For our group of 4 60-ish year olds, the beds were really uncomfortable, there was zero privacy even with bedroom doors closed, too few towels, toilets were ridiculously loud (although functional), and the bedding was old and furnishings dated. The management was very responsive though, and the gym - Poipu Beach Club - which is included, was a great bonus. Would love to give this a 5/5, just can’t.

Great stay on the south side. Loved sitting on the deck and watching surfers and turtles. Sunsets are to die for!

It afforded us the perfect opportunity to enjoy Poipu while also providing amazing ocean views. It was so relaxing to wake up every morning hearing the waves crashing and seeing expansive views of the water. Details such as included beach gear and a champagne bottle upon arrival were a nice touch as well. Overall, this is a fantastic option for anyone seeking a two bedroom condo in Poipu with oceanfront views.

Been to Kuhio Shores 15 years ago and it’s still the same. Beautiful ocean front , on the reef front building. We went all in on this 4th floor South West end unit. Views were spectacular and other than some pesky nats on the lanai 5 out of 6 days, everything about this unit is amazing. AC! Fans, comfortable master bed and great appointments. Smart tvs and everything you need to cook your brains out , we did mostly breakfast. Poipu has a lot of great food and bars, The Beach House can make some noise till 9:30ish if a wedding or live music is playing, your right next door. Mahalo

Fabulous location located only minutes from Poipu beach and a great selection of restaurants, Merriman's being our favorite! You can't beat the location. Great snorkeling right outside the condo. We had great customer service - very responsive. We would definitely choose this unit again. The parakeets that nested in the tree right outside the window each night were so much fun to watch. A very low key area on Kauai but close to everything you would want to do.
