A Beautiful Condo at the Waters Edge with a Great View

This beautiful condo is at the waters edge in Poipu Beach situated on the third floor. It has a fantastic, unobstructed view of a beautiful bay and the ocean.

Taking full advantage of cooling trade winds, this vacation rental is on the end of the complex, which provides more privacy (no foot traffic walking past the bedroom).

You can enjoy the fantastic view from the dining area or living room. Sit out on the lanai and enjoy snacks or meals or just relax and watch the waves roll in.

Things to Do:
You can snorkel adjacent to the condo or take a ten minute drive to Poipu Beach State Park which is renowned for some of the best snorkeling in Hawaii. A trip to Waimea Canyon, known as "the Grand Canyon of Kauai" will be a memorable experience.

Some of the attractions you can enjoy include a helicopter ride to see the island and fly over the famous and breathtaking Napali Coast and the Waimea Canyon. You can also see the Napali Coast by taking a boat trip or take a zodiac boat excursion to caves along the Napali Coast.

Sightseeing at some of the scenic gardens and historic plantations is lots of fun. The National Tropical Botanical Garden is just steps outside the door. These gardens are one of the reasons that Kauai is known as the Garden Island.

You will not want to miss the short boat trip to the lush and beautiful Fern Grotto where weddings often take place. You can easily drive to see the Wailua Waterfalls (you may recall these lovely falls from the opening scene of the TV program "Fantasy Island").

If you just want to relax, sit on the condo lanai, and in the cool afternoon shade enjoy the waves rolling in and also watch for turtles and other sea life.

We had a wonderful stay at Kuhio Shores 301. The view and sound of the ocean from the balcony draws you in. The hosts have thought of everything as far as supplies, including beach chairs, a cooler, and an umbrella. Our hosts were so gracious by letting us stay late on our final day, as we weren’t flying out until late that night. We’re grateful for them and for this home-away-from-home!

Absolutely wonderful! Had a great time and would like to return to this property in the future. Kitchen well appointed and had what we needed. The view is spectacular and is the star of the show. Convenient location for restaurants and shopping. Loved that there were outdoor chairs, yoga mat and an ice pack for "airplane back". Just a great place to stay.

View was wonderful with a bonus of having sea turtles in the bay below. One downside was the unit is on the end next to the road so when outside you can hear people drive by. Bed was comfortable, living space was roomy, and the shower head was wonderful after a beach day.

It was nearly perfect. The fabric of the screen door had a big tear that let gnats in, the screen door was very difficult to open, and the sliding door did not close fully. Road noise is quite noticeable, but not under anyone’s control. Snorkeling at Lawai Beach was amazing. It was a great stay, the unit was very clean and the host provided good amenities.

Well-Appointed Condo Near Poipu Beach & Old Koloa Town

We truly enjoyed our stay and can’t say enough about how thoughtfully this condo was prepared. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that the owners put great care into making sure guests have everything they need for a comfortable and convenient stay.The bathroom was stocked with extras we didn’t expect—body wash, sunscreen lotion and spray, a hair dryer with a diffuser, liquid hand soap, and plenty of soft towels. The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed (and more!)—pots, pans, baking supplies, utensils, prep bowls, measuring cups and spoons, a toaster, coffee maker, hot water kettle, blender, dish towels, sponge, dish soap, trash bags, dishwasher pods—the list goes on. It made cooking and cleanup a breeze.We also really appreciated the beach gear: four chairs, a beach umbrella, boogie boards, a small cooler, and even ice packs waiting in the freezer. The extras didn’t stop there—there were books, playing cards, a yoga mat, and a foam roller in the living room, and even thoughtful touches in the bedroom like a laundry basket, luggage holder, and a sweeper.Having access to the shared laundry room (with two washers and dryers at 2.50 per load) near the elevator was a big bonus. Our unit was at the end of the building closest to the street, but it was still very quiet and peaceful. There was also a nearby stairwell that made it super easy to get to and from the parking area.Location-wise, it was perfect for exploring the south side of the island. The small

Anniversary trip

Stayed 5 nights on a 25th Anniversary trip! June 17th-21st. Unit location is absolutely perfect! Unit faces an ocean cove. We woke up every morning before sunrise. Grab a cup of coffee and relax in the adirondack chairs on the lanai and watch the sunrise. Doesn't get much better than that. There is a fantastic restraunt call the beach house ( recommend getting a bar top seat reservation) next door to the condo property. Did the happy hour before an early dinner. Great snorkeling and surfing in front of the beach house as well as a popular spot to watch the sunset. Plenty of shopping and restraunts within a few minutes near by. We did rent a car to get around. Stopped by the Safeway by the airport to load up on food before checking in. Property has everything you need in the kitchen. We slept with the windows open. If you wake up in the middle of the night due to the sounds of ocean waves. Then your in the right place. I see reviews that mention the unit is close to the road. Live with it, your in paradise! We went on an excursion and visited a few different beaches. We took a Napoli coast raft trip via ocean blue adventures. Also went to brennecke's beach and took the provided boogie boards in the unit. Recommend eating at Brennecke's beach broiler restaurant. Overall the unit was fantastic! Location again is perfect. Property grounds are well kept. Great and timely communication with the host.East decision to stay again!

Komfortable, Kozy Getaway in Koloa on Kauai

Our stay at Kuhio Shores was as advertised in the VRBO listing. While the noise from Lawa'i Road was at times distracting it was never annoying. We toured the entire island of Kauai from this location. The information provided enabled us to choose a location that met our trip's sightseeing objectives and vacation goals. A 25-minute drive from the Lihue Airport, this corner unit has great views from the Lanai, easy access to South and West shore beaches, restaurants, hiking trails and a boat tour of the Napali Coast. The Lanai overlooks Hoai Bay, what a beautiful sight to wake up to and end the day on. The Beach House Restaurant is a five-minute walk along the backside of Kuhio Shores. Don't miss diner at the Beach House, book a sunset reservation and enjoy the hundreds of Green Parakeets arriving to nest for the night. We spent our last day in Kauai at Salt Pond Beach Park. It was not as crowded as the other beaches in the Poipu area with coves for snorkeling, covered pavilions and restrooms covered. Mahalo

Nice Condo

Nice Clean Condo, we had everything we needed except not enough toilet paper. Only one package was there for a 8 day stay. There were no extra batteries for the air conditioner/fan in the condo. The batteries that were enclosed were dead. Disappointed that the beach near the condo was not described correctly. You could walk to it but it was very small, crowed and not good for swimming. You have to drive to go to Poipu Beech which is nice. Better directions could have been given to us for checking in because nobody was in the building. Needed better direction for parking pass. Kitchen was well equipped. Overall we would stay here again. Enjoyed our first visit to Hawaii!

Soothing sounds of the ocean waves

What a pleasant experience to enjoy this condo that looks out onto a tiny bay where the soothing sounds of the Pacific Ocean waves provides a constant reminder to live in the moment. Contact with the owners was great. The Condo was well equipped with beach gear and helped stocked with a starter pack of Hawaiian coffee for the drip coffee maker. We recommend swinging by Costco in Lihue on the way to Po’’Ipo to stock up on food supplies. Great location. The staff at the Condo were so welcoming. An elderly gentleman warmly greeted us, helped make sure we had the parking pass for the rental car and shared tips on the area. Just a great way to enjoy. kaau’i
