My wife and I booked a semi-ocean view condo sight unseen via Costco to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our condo had air conditioning! [Unit #317] Not that we needed it too much, the weather being a consistent 75* by day, but it was nice to have after expecting to not have one. The view from the large lanai was small pieces of ocean and a touch of surf, making the lovely orchid-filled garden below the better view. Sunsets were best seen by walking to the beach, left through the Sheraton, and on to the first point - about seven minutes from the condo. (While I’m talking distances, the pool at the nicely appointed athletic club up aways and across the street is a ten minute walk. There is good food directly across the street only a few minutes away - pizza and Mexican.) The spacious unit also had a full refrigerator/freezer with working ice machine and all the equipment one could need - it lacked foil, wrap, spices, oil, etc. The king sized bed was comfortable, double-sheeted, plenty of pillows, a ceiling fan, and another fan (probably leftover from its pre-AC days), and a huge TV! Took some to figure out how to get it to work - sorry, you’re on your own there!????? The third floor unit did present some issues for us slightly older folk, carrying the luggage up and down, and the daily in and out meant careful planning to avoid unnecessary trips. The location in Poipu is superb! We really felt like we could get to everything in a half hour or less and didn’t mind the longer trips to Princeville and Kapaa and Waimea Canyon. Port Allen was twenty minutes away for our sunset catamaran dinner cruise, Spouting Horn was a must see multiple times being so close, and Poipu beach snorkeling was just our speed! We would return - but hopefully with enough lead time to arrange for an ocean front unit.

Love this property. So quiet and peaceful especially in the evening. Having a kitchen is very convenient but beware that groceries are very expensive. We loved buying fruit from local vendors. Love the beach and easy of getting towels and chairs for the beach.

this is a complex with great pool, tennis and pickleball courts, lovely dining area, and views of the sunset over the ocean. not great beach though. but close to the Kahaluu beach park. close to grocery store and shopping mall with a theater.

What a perfect location and amenities. The views from both balconies were epic! Looking out to the ocean and beautiful lagoon were spectacular both mornings and evenings. This 2 bedroom condo was perfect for 4 adults. The primary suite and bathroom was very spacious and the balcony was perfect. The updated kitchen was massive. We loved this unit and would stay again in a heartbeat!

Your safari starts and ends with a brief open air train ride. Our guide, Paul, made our trip memorable. He is knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of the Kiahuna plantation and the lunch that he served us halfway through our safari was perfect. Along the way, Paul took us into orchards where we plucked delicious fruit from the trees. My grandchildren will want to go back again.
