About this property

Ocean View 3 bedroom, 3 bath Home with A/C. Among the closest to Poipu Beach.

Aikane is Hawaiian for 'friendly' which best describes this delightful beach house. Ocean proximity gives you the convenience of a short walk to a variety of beaches. Walk past 2 homes to the ocean then along the coast past 3 more to reach the first of several beaches, body surfing, snorkeling lagoon and grassy play areas.

Cool and comfortable, I designed our home to harness cross ventilation from the cooling trade winds. Ceiling fans, quiet split-system ductless A/C and covered parking at your front door are especially nice on the warmest Hawaiian days.

Our home was extensively renovated in 2023 including new windows, quiet split-system A/C units, thermal reflective roof, solar and more. This really is a cool place to stay.

Travel Light. Aikane is equipped with lots of beach stuff (boogie boards, noodles, beach chairs, coolers, sand toys). We also provide cable WiFi, drip coffee maker, full separate sets of bath and beach towels, washer/dryer and lots more. We recommend guests bring their own masks, snorkels, fins and life jackets, if desired, to ensure proper fit.

Bedroom 1: king size bed with ensuite full bath and walk-in double shower.

Bedroom 2: 2 twins OR convert to 1 comfortable king bed.

Bedroom 3: 2 twins OR convert to 1 comfortable king bed.

For king beds, we secure the twins together with a special horizontal strap and center piece covered with a king size topper and quality bedding. We'll have everything set to your preference before arrival.

The 6 person maximum counts the youngest to oldest. We have bedding for 6 guests. No sofa sleepers or futons. Please read through the policies to be sure this is a good fit before booking.

Aikane Kauai Vacation Home is locally owned and managed by Chris White, a life-long Kauai resident. Book directly with the owner through Vrbo with confidence.

Amazing Location and House
Overall, the property had everything we wanted during our stay in Poipu. The house was spacious, clean and stocked with all the right amenities. It was walking distance to beaches and came stocked with everything you would need at the beach. The owner was very communicative and the checkin/checkout process was very easy. Would stay here again without a doubt.

A fantastic home 100 yards from the ocean!
This house was perfect for the 6 of us and the host Chris was so helpful and attentive. The house is 100 yards from the ocean and had all the amenities we needed. It is also stocked with plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc. Look no further for your place to stay in Poipu. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone visiting Kauai.

Best Vacation Ever!
Lovely home to spend a week in Kauai. Clean and extremely well stocked with additional items typically not provided in rental properties (toiletries, paper products, number of beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels, etc.) Chris (the owner) stopped by to bring us some fresh fruit and removed some ripe bananas from the property's tree. Along with the additional fruit we purchased, we make unbelievable smoothies during the week. The location could not be better. Two minute walks to see sunrises and sunsets at Poipu Beach. We drove over 800 miles during our 9 days visiting so many beautiful beaches, sites and hiked several half and all day trails. Also always fun to stop and shop at some great outdoor malls. We were so fortunate that the weather was perfect the week between Christmas to after New Years. Chris sent a thoughtful thank you text after our stay and we replied that we hope our future travels take us back to their home and Kauai. If you are thinking of staying at this home you don't be disappointed!

Kauai December Vacation
We chose this location because we read that good weather in the winter is on the South Shore and we were not disappointed. Brennecke's Beach for riding the waves was just a short walk and with a beach cart available it made carrying chairs, boogie boards, snorkling gear, etc (all of which Chris has available!) an easy trek. Poipu Beach located adjacent to Brennecke's is great for snorkeling. And the location is an easy drive from the airport as well as convenient to Costco and Walmart for grocery runs. Chris was a wonderful host and his place provided an inviting and comfortable place to stay during our visit. Should we find an opportunity to return to this beautiful island, we most certainly would choose to stay at Chris'.

We really enjoyed our stay! The location is perfect with a quick walk to two of the best beaches (Brenneckes & Poipu). Plus the layout of the house is great (where the downstairs quarters could be completely secluded if one desires). The host was great and easy to work with. We already miss waking up to that ocean view every day!

Great five friends stay at Poipu
There were five of us staying in this wonderful home. the home was well-equipped with everything to prepare meals. There were plenty of beach toys. Nice having the line outside to hang our wet clothing. The outdoor tap/shower to rinse the sand off our feet. We loved the location near Brennecke Beach for boogie boarding, close to restaurants, the Heritage trail, and Poipu Beach. Watching the turtles come to shore at night. Chris was an excellent host.

Fantastic House in a Fantastic Location
We've rented house in several different locations, from Florida, Wisconsin, and Michigan. This is the first house that the entire family started to referring to as "home" instead of just as "the house" after a full day of snorkeling, or hiking. Poipu Beach is literally 2 minutes away and this home had a full array of beach accessories, from fins, to beach chairs. The location is perfect for going north to hike the Kalahau Trail, or go the other direction to hike into the Wimea canyon. It's also only 25 minutes from the airport. When we come back to Kauai, we would put this house at the top of our list to stay at.

Family Vacation in Poipu
We had a great time staying at Chris’s house and highly recommend it.  The home was perfect for the six of us, all adults, with three comfortable bedrooms and separate bathrooms for each couple - and the air conditioning in every bedroom was nice, although we didn't always need it with the lovely breezes.  The view and location, just a short walk to the beach, park and restaurant was terrific.  Chris was great to work with and made us feel very welcome from the delicious chocolate macadamia nut candy waiting for us to the well stocked pantry.  We all enjoyed the games and puzzles on the rare rainy days - you can tell a home rental has their stuff together when the puzzles have all the pieces!!.  Can’t wait to return!

Exactly what we needed
This place has been perfect for us for a gathering of the clan to celebrate my wife's significant birthday. Plenty of room for the six of us. The location was spot on, with an easy walk to the beach, and not too far from some very good restaurants. If you're looking for the six burner gas stovetop, etc., maybe not, but it's clean and comfortable. Chris, the owner, was easy to work with and very responsive. I'm happy to recommend this home!

Very comfortable house
Chris's house is totally set up for the comfort of his renters and we really enjoyed his comfortable 3 bedroom home. From having 8 hanging beach chairs, lots of boggie boards, beach chairs, to large washer and dryer, to a Weber Bbq with 2 propane tanks, to comfortable beds, a nice set up kitchen, nice lanai and so much more. We do wish the refrigerator could have been colder as well as that the very loud garbage collectors out on the street (house's master bedroom is about 20' from the street) wouldn't start at 5am (not something Chris has any control over). While we were still traveling Chris text us that his house was ready about 4 hours earlier than we had expected. Throughout our 11 day stay his communications with us was excellent. It met all of our needs quite well and we hope to rent it again within 2 years.

We booked this rental 8 months ago based on excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. Location, amenities, and communication from Chris all deserved 5 stars. We have been to Kauai three times and think that the Poipu Beach area is the best area to stay based on weather, beaches, and restaurants / shops. Thanks to Chris for providing extra care to make us feel welcome and well informed.

About the host

Hosted by Vrbo for owner Chris White

Host profile image
Aloha! We are the owners and managers of Aikane Kauai and have lived a few miles from Poipu for many years. I designed our home to be comfortable, casual and welcoming. Our goal is to provide a clean, well equipped home that people will want to return to and also recommend. Integrity and friendly professionalism are the foundation.

Why they chose this property

Located on the sunny side of the island and centrally located, Aikane Kauai is convenient to beaches with an ocean view yet set back and landscaped for privacy, not a fishbowl. Enjoy coastal walks along the nearby Mahaluepu Coastline with secluded beaches just east of the house and shopping and dining nearby. The nearby beaches offer great swimming and snorkeling even in the winter when Hawaii's famously large surf rolls in to the north and west coasts. The north shore is an hour away and the spectacular Waimea Canyon and Kokee State Park are an hour in the opposite direction. This gives you option of day trips to these beautiful areas within reasonable driving times.

What makes this property unique

Booking with us gives you an instant connection in ​seeing you get the most out of your stay. You are welcome to phone, email or text for current info. Aikane Kauai is locally owned, professionally managed and fully licensed with a long, successful track record.
