About this property

Kuhio Shores Oceanfront Corner Unit

Beautiful oceanfront Poipu condo in the closest complex to the water. This ground floor corner unit in Kuhio Shores offers stunning ocean views from every room, with the seawall and water just steps from your lanai.

This condo features one bedroom with a king bed, fully-equipped kitchen, laundry facilities on each floor, and there is an onsite manager.
Compared to other one bedroom units, our corner unit has several advantages. The view is spectacular--270 degrees. You can look out towards the bay and the green mountains beyond, and all the way around, down the coast of Poipu. Whales, porpoise, surfers and turtles can all be enjoyed out your door. Speaking of privacy, our bedroom is on the ocean side, not along the hallway on the parking lot side. All you hear are the waves, not late night departing or early arriving guests with their suitcases. The corner units are the largest one bedrooms by square footage with a larger living room area. Another advantage of our corner unit is the superior ventilation. Huge bay windows facing into the tradewinds allow flow through ventilation when the ocean side windows or sliding door are open.
And just in case the trade winds don't blow, we have central air conditioning.

This condo features one bedroom with a king bed. Laundry facilities are found on each floor and there is an onsite manager. The fully-equipped kitchen has a blender, microwave, coffee maker, etc. We have beach chairs & umbrella for guests to use.

Come be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves, relax on the lanai to enjoy a drink and watch the surfers, whales, or the family of sea turtles that come in every evening to feed.

Amazing Stay

This Condo was perfect for us. Amazing view and location. Really liked being on the ground floor corner. Did t need the air conditioning as windows open were enough and could hear the waves at night.

Great ocean view

Jennifer’s place was fantastic. The ocean view is incredible, with it being a corner unit you have a full view out of multiple parts of the unit, and you’re only about 20ft from the water. We saw sea turtles and walked to the beach, couldn’t have asked for a better location. Only issue was our unit wasn’t ready at check in but we took about an hour walk and came back to everything in order.

Pure oceanfront

The photos say it all. You can’t get much closer to the ocean without being on a boat. Enjoy beautiful sunrises and sunsets from your living room. Having the bedroom on the ocean side and the full, opening windows wrapping the corner suite provide a true indoor/outdoor daily living environment. Endless surf and tropical breezes. We did not turn on the AC during our whole 3 week stay. Parking, always easy. Jennifer is a great, responsive host.

What a view

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The beautiful views and sounds of the ocean were just what we needed. In addition, we enjoyed watching the sea turtles from the lanai. Aside from the beautiful condo and it having everything we needed, the location was highly desirable. This was a perfect place to help us celebrate our 25th anniversary. Thank you! We hope to be back soon!

Oceanfront paradise

We really enjoyed our stay at Kuhio Shores. The corner unit was amazing with the views and cross breezes. Daily entertainment of watching surfers right outside our door. The unit was very nice - could use some updates on the interior but overall very nice.

Best VRBO Experience

Most well stocked condo, best artwork and overall decor, best location, and best overall experience of any VRBO we have ever experienced ( out of at least 25 or so). The pics on the VRBO page do not do justice to the location, with excellent views of both sunrise and sunset on the Pacific. Wish we could purchase this condo.

This place is amazing!!! 10/10

This place is perfect if you love sunshine, hearing the waves, and having fun! The inside was in perfect condition and super nice. Fresh fruit stand was setup directly across the street for breakfast. Beach house restaurant was amazing and less than a min walk. This place is truly the best in complex. Views are incredible. Owner was so helpful and setup that I could get leis delivered and into the unit for our arrival. 10/10

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Kiriakos

Host profile image
We are a family of seven (Girls 3, Boys 2) plus 5 grandkids and live in Southern California. We love to travel to new places but always enjoy coming back to our 'Home away from home' on Kauai.

Why they chose this property

The entire family loves the water so Kauai is a perfect place to play. We have owned a condo in Kuhio Shores for over 40 years and purchased this second unit in Spring 2020.
Surfing, boogie boarding, diving, kayaking and enjoying the ocean views and sea life from our condo's lanai makes Kuhio Shores #109 & #309 perfect for us. We can enjoy these activities right out front while other family members can watch from the lanai.

What makes this property unique

Even though we have been coming to Kauai for over 40 years, sometimes several times a year, we still find new things to do and wonders to see. Petroglyphs at Maha'ulepu Beach, the Awa'awapuhi Swamp Trail, Lawai Beach (restricted access), ocean kayaking to Kipu Kai, Kalihiwai rope swing, river Kayaking (Hanalei, Waimea, Kalihiwai), swimming behind Hanakapi'ai Falls on the Napali coast, Secret Beach, the list goes on. Our condo is central, 1 hr. from the west end of Polihale Beach and 90 minutes to the other end at Ke'e Beach. Of course sometimes the best thing is just to kick back on our lanai and watch the whales, surfers and turtles with a cold drink in hand.
