Family Vacation 2025

We just completed a 2 week stay in this amazing home. Jimmy was an outstanding host from the time we booked, check-in and thru our stay. We enjoyed the beaches, golfing, sunset cruise,luau,kayaking, area restaurants but most of all our time at the house. The pool was perfect. We saw turtles and dolphins from the deck. And the sunsets were spectacular. Would 100% recommend this home for your Kauai vacation!!!!

An oasis on Poipu Beach!

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe this amazing home. The views are spectacular from sunrise to sunset, the breeze sublime, and the comfort unparalleled. My family and I just spent Christmas week here and can’t wait to return. The house is perfectly stocked (has everything you need and then some) and Jimmy the host makes sure you have recommendations for restaurants, activities and experiences galore. Our favorite moments were the quiet ones relaxing in different parts of the spacious house, quietly enjoying the sound of the waves breaking on the rocks. This home will cure what ails you!

OFF THE CHART WONDERFUL !!

It's actually hard to describe just how precious this oceanfront property is... a truly unique spot replete with crashing surf, picturescue sunset views, a family of sea turtles constantly entertaining.... you feel such a part of the surrounding natural beauty. The private pool right at waters edge was in constant gleeful use by our granddaughter. If all that isn't enough your host (Jimmy) makes you feel so very welcome, and has a true servant heart. He truly seems to delight in making sure you have all that you need for a perfect stay in this little slice of paradise. Above and beyond!
