This house was a spectacular place to stay for our vacation! The view of the ocean from the lanai was fabulous, we were able to watch whales breaching in the ocean from the comfort of this home! Proximity to the beaches and several restaurant/bars is true as stated in the listing-a short walk! Chris, our host, is one of the nicest and most accommodating we have ever had. Thank you for sharing your home!

Chris was a welcoming host, very responsive to questions, and best of all, the accommodations exceeded our expectations.We enjoyed the view of the ocean from the balcony, the well-stocked beach gear room, and the quick walk to the beach.Most of us took morning and evening walks to check out the turtles on the beach. The kids rented surfboards and even took a lesson.Having stayed at other properties in Poipu, this is now our new favorite for family trips!

Chris is a dream host, having reached out before our trip to provide the keyless access code and internet password, address (of course), a useful car rental and airport tip, and even asked if there were any special requests. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a personalized welcome letter, a box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts (delicious BTW) and emergency phone numbers for both him and Theresa. He even checked-in (via VRBO) to make sure that our stay was going well. The house is absolutely beautiful, a stunning view of the beach and Pacific Ocean, a short walk to two beaches (including the infamous Poipu beach where sea turtles come to shore each night) and the famous Puka Dog. The home was clean and welcoming, very well stocked, and you could even say that it’s a VRBO renter’s dream.

This was one of the best vacation rentals I've stayed in! The pictures do not do the view from balcony/deck justice. The property is a 4 minute walk to the beautiful Brennecke Beach (see photos) and maybe 10 minutes to Poipu Beach Park, with calmer waters and snorkeling. The house has everything you need for the beach. From sun products to outdoor showers, the house had it all. We even did yoga in the side yard in the mornings. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting Kauai! Our group of 6 loved being so close to Old Kōloa Town and most activities were less than 20 minutes away.

This house was perfect for the 6 of us and the host Chris was so helpful and attentive. The house is 100 yards from the ocean and had all the amenities we needed. It is also stocked with plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc. Look no further for your place to stay in Poipu. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai.

Best Vacation Ever!

Lovely home to spend a week in Kauai. Clean and extremely well stocked with additional items typically not provided in rental properties (toiletries, paper products, number of beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels, etc.) Chris (the owner) stopped by to bring us some fresh fruit and removed some ripe bananas from the property's tree. Along with the additional fruit we purchased, we make unbelievable smoothies during the week. The location could not be better. Two minute walks to see sunrises and sunsets at Poipu Beach. We drove over 800 miles during our 9 days visiting so many beautiful beaches, sites and hiked several half and all day trails. Also always fun to stop and shop at some great outdoor malls. We were so fortunate that the weather was perfect the week between Christmas to after New Years. Chris sent a thoughtful thank you text after our stay and we replied that we hope our future travels take us back to their home and Kauai. If you are thinking of staying at this home you don't be disappointed!

Kauai December Vacation

We chose this location because we read that good weather in the winter is on the South Shore and we were not disappointed. Brennecke's Beach for riding the waves was just a short walk and with a beach cart available it made carrying chairs, boogie boards, snorkling gear, etc (all of which Chris has available!) an easy trek. Poipu Beach located adjacent to Brennecke's is great for snorkeling. And the location is an easy drive from the airport as well as convenient to Costco and Walmart for grocery runs. Chris was a wonderful host and his place provided an inviting and comfortable place to stay during our visit. Should we find an opportunity to return to this beautiful island, we most certainly would choose to stay at Chris'.

There were five of us staying in this wonderful home. the home was well-equipped with everything to prepare meals. There were plenty of beach toys. Nice having the line outside to hang our wet clothing. The outdoor tap/shower to rinse the sand off our feet. We loved the location near Brennecke Beach for boogie boarding, close to restaurants, the Heritage trail, and Poipu Beach. Watching the turtles come to shore at night. Chris was an excellent host.
