Very enjoyable stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is amazing, we could have sat there everyday and just listened to the waves and watched the turtles. We've never stayed in the same place twice while vacationing but I think we'd be hard pressed not to stay here again if we ever decided to come back.

Turtles, dolphins, friendly waves

Location was perfect, but with the view it was hard to leave the condo. We watched all the sea life as well as a breaching whale. Kitchen was appropriately equipped, beach items were all clean and good working order. We had a great stay and will be back!

Perfect location and stay

Great location - steps away from Poipu beach where sea turtles come and rest on the beach daily. Beautiful view - right in the water. Loved watching waves crashing, dolphins and turtles swimming right from our balcony. Star gazing at night. Condo was well stocked with everything you need. A perfect stay in Kauai!!!

Perfect whale watching spot!

We came to Kauai with hopes to see whales during their migration. This place was in a great location- you can walk to Poipu beach and see the turtles at sunset! We enjoyed the pool and the huge bonus of this VRBO is the ocean front property and being able to sit on the balcony and watch whales breach, dolphins jump by and turtles swimming.....all day! We saw SO many whales EVERY DAY, totally incredible and worth every penny!

A wonderful Kauai home

We spent a week in Cynthia’s beautiful condo and only wish we had booked for longer. So many things to praise. First, Cynthia is an awesome communicator throughout. And her online guide to the island is the best guide I’ve ever seen. The condo itself has superb views of the ocean and coastline. Inside, it’s very comfortable and is well furnished with everything in its logical place. It is quiet at night, the only sounds you will hear are the ocean waves. And the balcony is great for morning coffee and evening sunsets. Kauai is so beautiful and Cynthia’s place is the perfect base.

Fantastic View and Location

We had a wonderful stay in Kauai! The condo is as described and was very clean throughout with the exception of mildew on the shower curtain and a mildew smell upon arrival. Cynthia said after we left this would be addressed. She stated it is due to people running the AC all the time and not on the dry mode. I do not believe we received any information regarding running the AC in dry mode. Otherwise, very pleasant stay.

Very pleased!

This is a very clean and well-appointed condo. The view was amazing, right on the ocean! We watched whales while we ate breakfast on the deck and from the pool we watched sea turtles below, for hours. We loved the well-appointed kitchen which was well-stocked. The washer/dryer was so handy and this unit is air conditioned. It's only a 7-minute walk the beach, restaurants and hiking trails. Perfect!!

A little bit of paradise

We lucked out and found this VRBO in March and booked it as Christmas availability was limited. It had a phenomenal view, it was super quiet and easy access from the parking lot. The A/C was fantastic as it was quite warm while we were there - we were even a little chilly some nights and had to turn it off. The pool was a nice cool-spot for those hot days. Our vacation could not have been any better 3 Our stay was everything that was promised. We saw whales & turtles right from our lanais. The path to Poipu beach was wonderful & we enjoyed a puka dog while watching the turtles come ashore in the evening. It truly was a magical vacation, and one that my kids say was the best vacation ever!
