About this property

New Private Oceanfront Corner Retreat by Lawai Beach

Summary:

Settle into the shade of your corner-unit lanai and watch the surf, open sky, and occasional sea life move across the view. This one-bedroom Kuhio Shores condo is designed for two, just steps from Lawai Beach and its popular snorkeling and surf break. The open living area, full kitchen, and 854 square feet give a couple room to slow down between South Shore adventures. Poipu Beach Park and Brennecke's Beach are a short drive away for sandier swimming, while Kukui'ula has groceries, restaurants, and a farmers market when dinner plans call. Back at the building, shared grills and laundry add useful ease. Please note that this home has no air conditioning, sits adjacent to Lawai Road, and the building has an upcoming exterior painting project that may affect some reserved dates. It is a lovely choice for a couple who want the ocean close and the rest of Poipu within easy reach.



The Space:

This 854-square-foot corner unit gives two guests an open plan and a shady lanai with an expansive ocean outlook. The living area has a sectional and 42-inch smart TV, while the full kitchen includes a high-top glass table for four. The bedroom's wicker furnishings and cedar-lined closets add island character. There is no air conditioning; ceiling fans and the coastal setting help the space stay breezy.



Guest Access:

Guests at Kuhio Shores enjoy access to the oceanfront communal pool, hot tub, and fitness center, plus lush garden grounds throughout the complex. An elevator and disabled parking spot make getting around easy, and the beachfront setting puts sand and surf just steps from your lanai. Accessible-height beds and toilets are available for added comfort.



The Neighborhood:

Kuhio Shores sits on Kauai's sunny South Shore beside Lawai Beach, where the reef, surfers, and passing sea life make the shoreline part of the day. Poipu Beach Park and Brennecke's Beach are a short drive for sandy swimming and family beach time. Head toward Kukui'ula for groceries, restaurants, and a farmers market, or wander nearby Prince Kuhio Park. This is Poipu for guests who want to wake up close to the water, then explore at their own pace.



Getting Around:

Lihue Airport is about 30 to 40 minutes away, a pretty drive across Kauai's south shore. A rental car is recommended to reach Poipu's beaches, Koloa town's shops, and nearby dining with ease. Old Koloa Town is walkable for boutiques and restaurants, while beautiful beaches are just a short drive away. Parking is generally available on site or in small lots around town.



Other Things to Note:

Please note: this home is not equipped with air conditioning. This property is adjacent to Lawai Rd.



Interaction with Guests:

Our local Heavenly Vacations Kauai team is just a call or message away throughout your stay. We are always happy to share our favorite places to enjoy on the Garden Isle, and we are here to help right away should any issue arise. We respect your privacy and are here whenever you need us.

Beautiful place in a beautiful location. Pretty much every beach was within a 5 mins drive. Our only complaint was no AC, which we knew when we were booking, we just thought it would be a little more manageable.. If you do okay in a humid climate, you'll be okay, but it was kind of rough for us.

Great Condo - Great Vacation

This was a great condo and well appointed. You MUST go to Beach House Restaurant (next to condo) but get reservations early (like before you come). This condo was a great launching pad for a lot of adventures on the island. And the view from the balacony is great.
