Great Location!

This condo was perfect for our family of 4 and had a great location walking distance to Poipu beach with many restaurants and shops in the area. It is a very quite complex and was a good home base as we explored the island. Deborah communicated very well to ensure we had everything we needed.

Absolutely Fabulous

For many years, my wife and I always planned on going to Kauai for our 40th wedding anniversary. We spent a lot of time researching what we thought would be the perfect place and when we saw the pictures on the VRBO site, we new this was exactly what we wanted. To our suprise, this place was even better in person. As soon as we walked in the front door we were both in awe of the view. Not only did the balcony overlook the ocean, there was also a panoramic views of the mountains. We also enjoyed many beautiful rainbows. This place had everything we needed and was beautifully furnished, well maintained and very clean. The host was also a pleasure to deal with.

Paradise in Hawaii

This condo is truly paradise in Hawaii. The condo has everything you will need for a comfortable stay. The 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked well for our family. The one thing we enjoy while on vacation is waking up and having our coffee on the lanai and this was the best we have experienced with great views of the ocean and mountains. We often ended our days eating dinner on the lanai watching amazing sunsets. It was very convenient to have beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler to bring to the beach. It was a very clean and updated condo. Deborah was wonderful to work with and was in touch throughout the whole process and answered all our questions. She really cares that you have a great vacation. The location was very convenient to explore the island and nice that it was a short walk to the beach. We can't wait to return!

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!

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!
