Kauai Oceanfront, Poipu 'Jewel on the Sea', AC, swimmable beaches, Kuhio Shores

305 Kuhio Shores — “Jewel on the Sea”
Oceanfront Romance on Kauai’s Sunny South Shore
The moment we walked into what would become our Kauai home, we were speechless. The sweeping views of the Pacific, lush green mountains, swaying palms, and crashing waves felt almost unreal.
Perched directly on the ocean at Kuhio Shores, our beautiful third-floor condominium offers an experience unlike anywhere else on Kauai. From the lanai, you can watch sea turtles feeding below. From our property, see surfers riding world-famous breaks, whales passing in winter, and the moon shimmering across the water at night.
Located beside Lawai Beach, one of Kauai’s most beloved snorkeling spots, you can step outside and swim among tropical fish and turtles in crystal-clear water. The famous Beach House Restaurant is next door, along with scenic coastal walks, shops, art galleries, and the beauty of Poipu’s South Shore.
Inside, the condo blends tropical elegance with comfort and tranquility:
-Air conditioning in the bedroom
-Unobstructed ocean views
-Luxury Cal king bed with premium linens
-Fully equipped kitchen
-Spa-inspired Italian marble shower
-Fast, secure Wi-Fi and workspace for remote work
-Spacious lanai with chaise lounges and dining area
Whether you are celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, special occasion, or simply need time to reconnect and recharge, our “Jewel on the Sea” was created to be a peaceful and unforgettable retreat.
We also welcome you with an Aloha Basket of coffee and snacks so you can begin relaxing the moment you arrive.

Beautiful location. It truly is right on the ocean and we spent a lot of time just enjoying the view on the ocean. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed to cook some of our meals at the apartment so we could save a little bit of money. The apartment was clean and well maintained, for whatever reason the bedroom had a really weird strong smell. It was fine for my husband, but I am pretty sensitive to smells and so I couldn't sleep in the bedroom. They had a pullout couch that I used and it was actually pretty comfy for a pullout! The smell was the only downside but worth it for the view.

Such a beautiful view with a great location. The apartment is a little outdated but it was clean and comfortable so really no complaints there. We enjoyed the sunset each night and spent our day doing some of the best snorkeling right out front. We saw turtles and all kinds of fish! The host gave us a great hiking recommendation that ended up being one of the things we enjoyed the most about our trip!

The listing is deceiving. Claims there is AC which is a non negotiable for us and it only had a mini split which only cooled the bedroom. Was hot in the rest of the unit. The view was beautiful and the bed comfortable but for 350 a night we would have kept looking. The move in directions didn’t have the unit number so had to call the management company for that. Messaged the host a direct question on suggestions to go for anniversary and was ignored. Had the bare minimum. Broken umbrella and 3/4 fins for snorkeling. Grateful the view didn’t disappoint.
