About this property

Sleep to Surf Sounds & Trade Winds [or AC!] While Enjoying Your Oceanfront Home.

Our comfortable, fourth-floor, south shore condo is right ON the ocean so you will SEE --and HEAR-- the sound of the surf as soon as you open your front door. The condo, with stylish, contemporary furniture, boasts a comfortable king-size bed. Relax "at home" and enjoy the ocean while sitting inside or out on your lanai. Snorkel with turtles right in front of the condo (we sometimes see Eagle Rays in our bay, too)! This is one of the best shore dive sites on the island and our building is consistently rated as one of the best. The condo is nicely furnished so you can get down to the business of relaxing in comfort upon arrival. Come on in and make yourself at home! And just so you know, most guests who stay in our Island Oasis Suite *do* return....

The condo was modern, with great kitchen cookware and appliances. We were stoked about the beach chairs, beach towels, and there was even a snorkel and flippers provided for our use. I think our favourite thing was watching the turtles from the balcony every day! Denise was attentive and communicative, which made our stay stress-free! The condo is in a great location, close to loads of restaurants and beaches. It is also right next door to the popular restaurant "The Beachhouse", so I would definitely plan to have a sundowner there! I wouldn’t hesitate to book this place again if we are lucky enough to visit the gorgeous island of Kauai again!

My husband and I stayed here for my 50th birthday and we had a spectacular time in this condo. The listing represents it 100% accurately. It was a beautifully decorated place, extremely clean, loved the bed, and the view couldn't be beat, absolutely gorgeous. You have to drive just a little bit to the towns for all the restaurants and shops but that was no big deal. This was our 2nd stop on our trip in Hawaii and our flight came in quite a few hours prior to the check-in time, but soon after we landed, Denise texted me and said the room is ready early, so that was a lovely surprise. I would absolutley recommend this place if you want an up close ocean view (and a sea turtle view), as it was difficult to find that in Poipu. When we saw this we jumped on it! Thanks again Denise!

Sweet honeymoon getaway

We loved our stay at Denise’s place. The condo is beautifully updated and was very clean. Loved having the view of the sunrise every morning and the condo stayed decently cool in the evening with using the AC. There was plenty of beach supplies, chairs, snorkels, etc. which was very nice to have. The bed was amazing and comfy. We truly enjoyed our stay for our honeymoon at this condo. The location was great and the hosts were very attentive.

Perfect place to stay in Poipu

Absolutely gorgeous condo at a great location. Modern, clean and comfortable with everything you could desire for your stay. Comfortable bedroom with lovely breeze from balcony. Balcony was great for sunrise and watching wild parakeets landing in the palm trees every evening. Saw lots of turtles feeding on the rocks there every morning. Small beach on west side of building was great for snorkeling. Modern without clutter but well equipped. Everything was considered....reading lights at bedside, fluffy towels. comfortable sofas, ect. Hope to stay here again. Love Kauai and loved staying here.

It’s Paradise!!

Don’t think twice and book!! This is by far the most top notch couples retreat! From the layout, to the design and decor, the the breathtaking views from balcony - it’s just spectacular. Denise was amazing with communication and responded quickly every time I had a question. The condo was close to beaches, restaurants and shops. We spent majority of our stay on the island here and driving to and from various parts of the island was no issue at all. You will see sea turtles from the balcony on a daily basis and the sun rises from bed are a dream. We couldn’t have been happier and will definitely rebook in the future!

If I could give this more than 5 stars I totally would! The pictures online don’t do it the justice it deserves! BEAUTIFUL ocean view to watch the sunrise. We actually saw some sea turtles swimming while we drank our morning coffee. The condo is gorgeous and recently remodeled. The owner definitely has great style. It has everything you need to relax and enjoy the breathtaking views of Hawaii. We rented a car and parked it in the lot out front which was really nice. It is also walking distance to a cute little shopping center that has a drugstore and grocery store! Thank you so much for letting us stay here - we will definitely be back soon! Mahalo!

Wonderful Poipu vacation

Wonderful location immediately adjacent to the best snorkeling beach on the whole island (in our opinion anyway), and with a lanai facing a small bay that nearly always greeted us with turtles. We enjoyed watching them negotiating the swells as they fed on the rocks. There are blinds that can be pulled to block the morning sun, but we preferred to keep them open, waking to the sun, the sound of the sea, and the crowing of roosters. (there are a LOT of happy feral chickens running around Kauai). We chose not to use the A/C and found the sea breezes and excellent ceiling fans kept us quite comfortable. The unit is located right next to the Beach House. We never went, but we could see it was a popular place, always hopping with activity. Even with the Beach House, the neighborhood is less glitzy than other parts of Poipu, where you'll find the grand hotels like the Grand Hyatt and the vast Poipu Beach. But those areas are within a very short drive. Everything in Poipu is basically a short drive away, including the little village in Koloa (go to Kenji Burgers there, and the Sueoka convenience store). Denise was always response to any questions we had. Thank you Denise for a wonderful vacation.

We had a wonderful week-long stay at this Kauai property! The location is absolutely stunning—right on the edge of the ocean with sweeping views of both the water and the mountains. We especially loved watching the sunrise from the lanai, and while sunsets were visible from the opposite side of the condo, it was nice that both could be enjoyed within such a short distance of each other.The home itself was beautifully maintained and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need—from kitchen essentials to beach gear. It was also close to several great beaches, making it easy to explore during the day and return to a relaxing home base in the evening.Our host was wonderful—welcoming, responsive, and made sure everything was just right for our stay.If you’re looking for a peaceful, scenic getaway with unbeatable views and all the comforts of home, this is the perfect place. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kauai!

Paradise

Really enjoyed this beautiful condo. The view was spectacular and the location was very convenient to everything on that side of the island. The communication and check-in and out were seamless. Only negative comments would be that it was advertised as air conditioning but it was only in the bedroom and was an extra 10 a night if you used it. We did not really need it and did not use it but I thought the listing could make that more clear. Also, the unit said it had washer and dryer but it was down the hall and cost extra. We were only provided one bath towel which I thought it would have been nice to have at least two per person. I would highly recommend this place but just know and prepare for things mentioned.

Relaxing and beautiful getaway

This Vrbo is excellent! We love staying in Poipu when we come to Kauai and this condo was the perfect oasis for relaxation. Every morning we would watch the sun rise and look for turtles and whales. Every evening we would walk over to Beach House to grab a Mai Tai and watch the sun set. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to launch our adventures. The condo had great amenities for beach relaxation and hiking trips. We can’t wait to return!

Amazing property

This was the most perfect place to stay on Kaua’i! It was even more beautiful than presented in the listing. We listened to the surf and watched the sea turtles frolic every afternoon. The condo was very comfortable and well stocked, providing pretty much everything we needed. We can’t wait to return to this wonderful spot we consider to be “heaven on earth”.

Beautiful Home & A Wonderful Stay

The place was beautiful - very clean and well stocked. The waves are a little louder than expected with the doors and windows open, but that was exactly how it was described in the listing and the reason we chose this place over others. Everything was comfortable and the place had everything we needed for two people. The area is great - "The Shops" were very close and Koloa is a short drive up the road. It's also a great central spot on the island, where Hanalei is the only destination that is a "long drive," even though it's really not that far. It was a nice spot for us so we could travel around the island. We actually ran in to Denise one day downstairs and had a wonderful converasation with her! The communication the whole trip was great and I'm so appreciative for them opening their home to us.

A Slice of Paradise at Kuhio Shores 406

The location is simply unbeatable. The sound of the waves crashing against the rocks just steps away from the condo supplied a soothing soundtrack to our entire stay. The condo itself was a true home away from home. The attention to detail in the interior design and furnishings created a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped with modern appliances, making it easy for us to prepare meals and dine with a view of the ocean. One of the highlights for me was the private lanai, where we spent mornings sipping coffee and evenings stargazing. It was the perfect spot to unwind and appreciate the natural beauty that Kauai has to offer, including the daily afternoon visit from sea turtles. The attention from Denise and Gordon was exceptional. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. Their recommendations and hospitality added an extra layer of warmth to our experience. The proximity to local attractions and activities was another advantage of staying at Kuhio Shores. Whether it was exploring nearby botanical gardens, embarking on a snorkeling adventure, checking out the local farmer’s markets or simply relaxing on the pristine beaches, everything was conveniently accessible. Kuhio Shores is a hidden gem that we feel fortunate to have discovered. It's a haven for those seeking a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure. We’re already dreaming of our next visit to this little slice of heaven on earth.

Just a perfect place to return to after a day adventuring on Kauai.

Just the sound of the waves and the beauty of the ocean. Tastefully and functionally updated. Comfortable bed and furniture. Set up is great in that you can see the ocean from the living area and bedroom. Everything we needed and more (coolers, boogie boards, beach towels.. if you needed it, it was here). Parking always available close to the unit. We stayed 4 nights and never saw an insect. Five minute drive from Longs Drug if you needed anything. Great restaurant next door with killer sunset views. Poipu Beach minutes away by car. Resident turtle in the water beneath our balcony. Stayed perfect temperature without AC in August (highs in high 80’s), but must pull down sunshades in the early morning hours to keep the unit cool. Proactive owner told us about potential noise from the elevator being fixed (but we didn’t hear anything). It’s near the road, but you don’t hear anything but the ocean. We were out and about everyday.. so can’t comment on it as a “laying on the beach” stay. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
