About this property

BEAUTIFUL BREATH-TAKING Ocean and Sunset Views w/ AC, Upscale Furnishing, & Art.

Now with TWO KING BEDS - The second bedroom has been upgraded with a NEW KING BED!

Enjoy Breath-Taking Beautiful Ocean and Sunset views w/ AC, Upscale Furnishing, & Art.

Our spacious split level condo offers incredible and unobstructed ocean views. The private lanai is the perfect spot for true relaxation, listening to the sounds of the waves crashing against rocky ocean shore, or watching the whale’s breach and play in the waters nearby.

All the rooms have magnificent views of the ocean and are furnished in contemporary design.

We have recently installed a Mitsubishi Mini Split Air Conditioning system. The living room and each bedroom have an independent wall mounted air conditioning unit, allowing for individualized and personnel settings.

The living room has a magnificent view of the ocean and has been newly updated with modern furniture, a 75” flat screen TV, Blue Ray/DVD player and Bluetooth stereo speaker. The condo also provides cable and free high speed internet.

The kitchen is fully equipped and features granite countertops, shaker cabinets, upgraded stainless steel appliances, and is complete with all necessary cooking tools, gadgets, small appliances, and pots and pans for all your cooking needs.

The master bedroom has a full en-suite bath, with a king-sized bed. The guest bedroom also has a full en-suite bath with newly purchased king-sized bed (Listing photo has not been updated yet). The bedrooms are separated to provide plenty of privacy.

We also have our custom roast Kauai coffee in the kitchen to start your day right. Our service includes a host of amenities with free parking, Wi-Fi and washer/dryer in your condo. To ensure an exceptional experience, we provide our guests with hotel grade supplies such as full sets of towels and three rolls of toilet paper at each bathroom, soaps/shampoo/conditioner/lotion, detergents, paper towel, Kleenex, and trash bags to cover the first a couple of days of your stay.

The condo complex offers several amenities and the grounds are beautifully landscaped. Enjoy the ocean view pool, Jacuzzi, gas grills in the BBQ pavilion, and tennis courts. If you love to golf, there are multiple courses nearby.

Makahuena at Poipu is located on the southernmost point of Kauai. This unique oceanfront property is situated on a bluff above the rocky shoreline on the Poipu Coast, located between Shipwreck Beach (for experienced swimmers) and Poipu Beach, which is ideal for children and snorkeling. You can reach either beach via a short 5 – 10 minute walk or by car.

Load beach gears on a cart and walk along the beach trail to enjoy swimming, snorkeling and surfing at the popular beaches in Poipu. With Poipu, Brennecke's, and Shipwreck beaches each a short stroll away, guests can take advantage of our beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, beach umbrella, sand toys, boogie boards, and spacious cart.

Enjoy morning walk or jogging on the Poipu Beach Trail towards Maha'ulepu Heritage Trail and admire the breathtaking view over Shipwreck Beach and the beautiful Grand Hyatt Resort. Explore a 3.7 mile scenic trail towards Punahoa Point that offers the chance to see wildlife and the local flora.

Brennecke's Deli and Brennecke's Beach Broiler serve lunch and dinner nearby, and a five-minute drive leads to Poipu Shopping Village and The Shops at Kukuiula, both of which have an assortment of dining and shopping possibilities. Another five-minute drive brings guests to Old Koloa Town, where historic plantation buildings have been carefully renovated to create a charming village with additional restaurants and shops, as well as a grocery store.

Furniture and decor may change for safety or upgrade.

* Other things to note:
There is currently a construction project in the neighboring community which is affecting our panoramic original view. Our listing photos clearly show that the wide ocean views are available from the lanai towards the ocean located in the south, not towards the east where the construction is going on. Although work only takes place during business hours (M-F, 9AM-4PM) and noise may occur during daytime excursion hours, we do not find that the project takes away from the quality of the experience.

According to our guests, the construction does not obstruct the ocean view from lanai and bedrooms, and there is no significant noise coming into the condo.

Due to this ongoing construction on the neighboring community, we reduced our nightly rate remarkably to let our guests enjoy their stay in our ocean-view condo on an affordable budget.

For your reference, we have added 7 recent photos of oceanview taken from our lanai towards south to east at the end of our photo gallery.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Southside Gem

I am a person that looks at reviews before deciding where to stay. I never understand how one review says 5 stars and than another one just weeks later is a 2 star. I can truthfully tell you that this was by far one of the best places we have stayed at. The location was perfect. Everything we could have ever wanted was available to us to use.

Great View & Perfect Location

Myself and my husband stayed with my friend and her husband. The condo was prefect for 2 couples. Having the full and fully stocked kitchen with the washer/dryer and beach chairs/umbrella worked out great for all of us. You definitely need to have a car here in Kauai. Parking was always easy here as well. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Delightful Trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our eight night stay, the property was perfect for our family of four, including my two daughters who are 8 and 5. The views are breathtaking and the condo is very well equipped with anything you might need. The complex is lovely and the location within Poipu is close to everything but on the edge to feel like you’re a bit away from it all which is perfect. We will look to stay again in the future!

Stay on Kuaui

The property was very nice, a quiet location but close to the beach and restaurants. We enjoyed the trails nearby and the coast scenery was breath taking. The condo was very well equiped with lots of supplies , towels and sports equipment. The only improvement I could suggest would be a small drying rack for damp swim suits and towels in the laundry room. WE had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to others.

Great property! Everything you need to have a excellent trip!

Our family had the best time staying at this condo! From coffee on the lanai, walks along the path to Shipwreck Beach, walks to Poipu Beach, watching sunrises and sunsets, watching the whales and sleeping comfortably. This condo had everything and more! Fully stocked, nice breeze throughout, everything you need in the kitchen, great bbq area, a lot of beach gear and beach towels. Hearing the waves hit the rocks was amazing! Very nice condo and had such a great stay!

Graduation Vacation

The location of the home was great! It was located by a trail in front of the ocean, and was a short 10-20 min walk to Brenneckes and Poipu beach! The kitchen was well stocked and the bed sheets were clean. The view of the ocean was great from the balcony and rooms! Each room also had its own air conditioning. There were plenty of beach supplies such as umbrellas, snorkel gear, coolers, boogie boards, and sunscreen to use! We really enjoyed our stay!

Perfect location- highly recommend!

Our family of 3 had a wonderful stay. Plenty of space and a fully stocked kitchen. In fact, my advice would be to go to the condo before the grocery store as some staples are already stocked. This condo was the perfect location- central to all of Kauai’s best attractions. I recommend heading down to the beach at sunset to see the honu come to shore for the night- it was amazing! Thank you for sharing your beautiful condo with us!!

March 2023 WONDERFUL Time!

We stayed for about 10 days have nothing but terrific things to say about the property. Everything was as advertised; from the general location, the air conditioning, the ocean views (with whale watching from the lanai and binoculars were provided!), and the everything else provided in the condo, including very comfortable beach chairs. When (not if) we come back to Poipu, we hope to stay in this property again. Thanks for the fast responses Claire!

Highly recommend great location

My family (adult kids 18 & 20) stayed in early Jan. We highly recommend this condo. Well equipped with snorkel & beach gear and with a great kitchen and laundry too. We spent lots of time exploring Makuenha Point watching waves crash and whales blow. It’s a short drive to Poipu so see monk seals and turtles. Snorkel at Poipu, boogie board at Brenneke’s beach and much more. Walk to shipwreck beach and hike a little more to the cave. This also serves as a fairly central location for touring the North, East, and West Island. Sunsets from just outside the pool area are amazing. Lots of restaurants for eating in or takeout are close by. Our 6 nights flew by! For the accommodation, location and view you won’t find a better value.

Our stay

Overall everything was great and the view was beautiful. The only CONs were: - There was some construction going on that slightly obstructed the view. - We found that the sofa bed had bed bugs when we arrived. We had to wash the sheets. You may want to spray before future guests arrive. - The Beach umbrellas were broken. Otherwise, nice place and location. thank you.

Lived up to honest billing

When we arrived, this unit was clean & everything in its place. The eastern view proved to be a blessing. When strong 25-35 mph winds were blowing through one night, we were still able to enjoy the lanai as it was protected. Yes, there is some construction next door & your view is partially of that construction but it certainly didn’t obstruct the amazing view. Also, we were in this area last year & the construction seems to be happening on “island time” which means you might hear someone hammer for half an hour although we didn’t really notice any noise.

Great location- some construction

Our multigenerational family group spent a week at this condo. Overall it was clean, well equipped with everything we needed to cook good meals and nice quality beach items to use. The number of stairs both getting to the unit and inside the unit was a bit harder to navigate with a toddler and grandparents- but we took it slow. The pool at the complex was extremely cold, so we only used it once- which was disappointing. The grill area of the complex had a nice grill, but definitely wasn’t anywhere you’d want to hang out to eat- it’s located beside the parking lot with views of buildings. For the price point we were disappointed with the amenities at this older complex. Otherwise it was a great place to watch the whales spout, walk to beaches and enjoy the sunrises and sunsets on the point.

Great stay!

First of all, the location is perfect! Check in was simple although I’m not sure why they don’t just text the door code to you. The condo was very nice. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. There was also beach supplies such as towels, snorkels and COOLERS which was the best! We did use the washer and dryer which was convenient to have. The bathroom towels got musty after a couple of days and needed washed too. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioner was a nice bonus. The lanai provides spectacular views. I don’t think there was a sunrise we missed from there. We only wished that there was a BBQ grill closer to the condo. Also, there was some confusion on check out time. There were conflicting times but it worked out. Overall, a great stay. We would recommend staying here.

Kauai Getaway

My husband and I and our friends really enjoyed our stay in the condo! The bedrooms were on opposite ends of the hallway so it was perfect for two couples. The king sized beds were comfortable. We watched breathtaking sunrises every morning from the lanai. (There was construction in the lot next door but it wasn’t blocking the views). We all enjoyed the beautiful pictures and artwork in the condo. We visited Kauai Coffee Company so we were happy the condo had a coffee bean grinder, coffee pot, and Keurig to sample our delicious coffees we bought. The kitchen had quite a few spices, salt and pepper etc. plenty of dishes, pots and pans, wine glasses, blender, tea pot & I even found a pitcher for my fresh brewed iced tea. We appreciated the washer and dryer and downstairs bathroom. The “beach” closet had everything we needed for a day at the beach, a cooler, chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear and really nice beach towels. The grounds to the condo are very pretty and manicured. The pool and hot tub area are well kept and clean. We used the Weber BBQs on the grounds, Although it was a bit of trek from the second story condo to the bbq area we didn’t mind. Everything was comfortable, clean and enjoyable! We had the best time! We would stay here again! Thank you for hosting your beautiful place!
