We had a great week staying here. It was a great location and the rooms were as described. Excellent service overall and we would definitely come back again!

We enjoyed our visit, thanks. Here are some suggestions: -- Include a set of instructions/helpful info about the rental, including operation of electronics, recycling, places to get groceries, restaurant recommendations, etc. -- Add a bath mat next to the upstairs tub (as-is, the one in vanity must be moved there) -- Add towel bars or hooks to wall(s) near the upstairs tub -- Include more toilet tissue in the rental -- Add soap or body wash to the upstairs tub -- Add fan above the table in the dining area -- Replace the circular table in dining area with a rectangular one (as-is, there's not enough room for someone to get around it if three people are seated in the chairs nearest the living room -- Relabel the light switches that currently say "Lamps" (they didn't seem to control anything; at least, we couldn't figure it out) -- Add a first-aid kit (maybe we missed?) Should be mentioned in the house instructions -- see first suggestion above. Thanks!

very calm & inviting. lovely place to relax and unwind.

We had a great stay. Beautiful property. You feel like your in the jungle. Close to everything.

Property was as described. May be the time of year but was warm even with the ceiling fans. Would not recommend for older people,we are on our 70's, as the walk leading up to the unit is steep and has several steps which make getting the luggage in the unit difficult. The pictures do not show the elevation difference between the parking area and the entrance to the unit. Great place for younger people.

This was a great place for my family to enjoy the island. Everything was clean and fit our needs perfectly. It's conveniently located to Poipu Beach and other beautiful beaches for scuba diving and snorkeling.

Yes it's in a crater. Did not expect the long and steep walkway from parking lot to condo. I walk with a cane, was not easy. Condo itself was nice, 3 levels, more stairs, Had an issue with upstairs shower door, does not roll very well. No A/C but not needed. The outside gardens and the quiet seclusion is very relaxing.

We loved the location of this property. It was a short walk to the beach. The rest of the island was within a reasonable car ride. Restaurants nearby were excellent. We liked that there were boogie boards, chairs, and an umbrella to use on the beach. And access to the tennis court was fun for my kids. There were a couple of minor problems with the condo that were promptly taken care of once I got in touch with the proprietor. I would definitely recommend this place for a family of four.

The master bedroom and the lanai are outstanding.

A beautiful home in a lovely and well maintained garden complex. This property was the perfect size for two adult couples (late 30s) vacationing in Kauai for 5 days. We were worried about not having AC, but at the end of April, the unit caught nice breezes that kept the rooms perfectly comfortable. A small portable fan would be most welcome in the downstairs bathroom, as it became uncomfortably humid and warm when showers and laundry were running with no means of circulating air with the door closed. We really appreciated the large beach towels and high quality bath towels. I never travel without earplugs and an eye mask, and I recommend them to anyone coming here who prefers perfect darkness and silence for sleeping. I can't speak for the loft bedroom, but the main floor bedroom did let in some (not too much) light in the morning, and the sounds of birds, roosters, and critters of the (beautiful!) gardens. Come prepared and you'll sleep just fine. The pool area is lovely - complete with 8ft pool, lounge chairs, grill, shaded tables/chairs and more stunning tropical flora. The residents we met were friendly and welcoming. The assigned parking stall made parking hassle free, and the location of the quite community was very convenient. This was our favorite location of the places we stayed on our 3-island vacation.

This stay was clean, quiet, spacious, and in a great location. Walking distance to several beaches and trails. So relaxing, I cannot say enough about it. It was the perfect place for my significant other and I, but would definitely work well for a small family, especially if you want kitchen amenities for cooking. The host was responsive to questions. We will definitely stay again in the future and will recommend to friends and family!

It was perfect for our relaxing girl trip! The lanai was awesome for breakfast and just hanging out. The neighborhood was quiet and clean! Would absolutely stay again! 😊. Perfect hidden gem in Poipu!

To start off, we would gladly return to Crater 26, and hope to do so the next time we plan to come to Kauai. Very nice property and great location. We will also recommend to friends and family.

Very clean, we stocked. Great location and neighborhood.

Very nice place

The location was great for our vacation, very close to multiple beaches and restaurants. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the lanai is a plus for eating outside. The pool was better than the photos provided on the listing. We spent hours swimming, and playing ping pong and tennis with the grandkids.

We loved the place. Our adult son, my husband, and I had a great week based out of the "Crater". The facilities worked well for us and the location was unique. The facilities were great and the kitchen well stocked, if you don't mind mis-matched dishes. My only complaint was the level of 'perfume' in all the linens. Too much scent in the detergent(?), dryer sheet(?) for me! I to rinse/wash some linens w/o any soap to try and get them so I could sleep. I don't think anyone would complain if their linens DIDN'T smell sickenly sweet, so why subject us to that??? UGH!

Very much enjoyed our stay.

Extremely disappointed. The unit has not had a good clean in months, and is very run down. Kitchen stove dirty, kettle caked in grease but still put away in the cupboard. Cutlery tray and cutlery dirty, coffee maker still had old coffee and filter in it. All plates old and crappy and not enough of them, we had to buy paper ones. All mugs, glasses, cookware, pots and pans look like they came from the thrift/second hand shop. Baseboards and doors covered in dirt, black cobwebs on the lamps. Shower floor stained, so much soap scum on the shower doors you can’t see through them, shower door handle caked in dirt. There seem to be dirt on everything. Front door lock not easy to use screen door broken, as were most of the blinds. This unit is not as depicted on VRBO site.

Easy, reasonable rental

We enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds comfortable. It was warm even in November. The fans were great, but it was still a bit warm upstairs. There are some signs of wear like some peeling paint on the doors from humidity and a door didn’t lock, but for the price and location the house is excellent. The walk to the beach is a bit steep, but not bad. Communication was good. Overall very happy we stayed.

We enjoyed every moment of our stay at Crater 26. Highlights - Great location in walking distance to the Poipu beach and trails - Beautiful community with swimming pool, tennis court and club house - Well maintained property - Nice porch - Assigned parking lot Lowlights - It requires to put some efforts to bring stuff to the cottage and out since it's located a little bit up hill

Nice big rental with everything you need a available. The no AC was a big concern going in, but in mid October the temperature was just cool enough at night to make it work. If it was hotter then it would def have been an issue.

We had a great time in Kauai. Poppy Crater#26 was a great location. It was central to all the beaches and spots we wanted to go. After our days out, it was always nice to come back and enjoy the lanai. We ate all our meals out there and played cards most evenings. It was nice that it was covered. We had everything we needed. Appreciated having a desisignated parking spot. Had a great time!

Other than the few comments previously shared (i.e. lack of toilet paper, soap, plates and knifes as well as not having a floor fan upstairs... ) The place was very nice although very hot at times. It is a bit of a hike to get to the beach depending on the age and shape of the people. We enjoyed the quiet and lush environment as well as the access to the pool and the tennis court.

It's very jungley like. You can hear tons of birds and roosters. We loved it, some might not. It's a little uphill to get to the condo but not to bad. There's a pool, ping pong table and grills right outside the building. It's a short walk to the beach about 10 to 15 min. Short drive to shops and restaurants, about 5 min. We ould definitely stay there again. Uber is hard tonget around in. Rental car is strongly suggested.

We loved our stay. Would definitely stay there again. Close to the beach restaurants and shopping centers. Had everything we needed for the beach. Very clean and comfortable. Recommend renting a car because Uber is not easy around there.

Our stay at Crater 26 was great. We loved the spacious patio overlooking the luscious property. The sounds of wildlife were quite nice too. Great place to stay!

Such a great place for our family of 4, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the place was very clean and organized. We enjoyed the living room area every evening, perfect for relaxing after a long day of hiking or swinging at the beach. Excellent location, super close to restaurants, coffee shops, and the beach. Our hosts were very attentive and extremely helpful; our stay was memorable.

We all loved the Vrbo at poipu beach. It was a short walk to the beach, beautiful views and wildlife around the stay (banana and coconut trees, toads, snails, and other critters!) also close to everyone else who was staying in and around the resort. The pool is nice and warm and the condo was spacious. We did not know it didn’t have AC but it cooled down at night and had fans and was comfortable for sleeping. Additionally, the dishes could have been a bit cleaner. All in all, it was a great trip and wonderful stay at the crater.

Condo was clean and lovely. We liked that there was shampoo and conditioner in case we needed it. Location very relaxing and quiet. Pool a nice added feature. Plants around complex were interesting, banana, avacodo, limes, lemons, etc. Flowers beautiful all over. High ceilings and fans gave a lot of air movement and condo was cooled nicely. Light and airy as well as modern. We also used the beach accessories and had such a good vacation at this condo. Great location in Poipu.

This was a perfect place to stay while exploring the South and West side of Kauai. The bedrooms were perfect and the kitchen had everything we needed. There was even pool and tennis court on site. We could not have asked for anything more.
