2 Thumbs up!

This was a beautiful home to spend our extended family vacation in. Perfect layout and the bunkbeds were great for the kids. Loved having access to extras like beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, sand toys, wagon for little kids, etc. The house is in a quiet, nice neighborhood and close to everything. The paved walking path to the pool and beach was great! Highly recommend this home and hope to stay again in the future!

Wonderful family vacation

This house worked great for our family of 10 ranging from 6-72 in age. Much to do in area. Really appreciated availability of beach towels and toys and snorkeling equipment. Home has an open feel with lots of windows for views and air flow. Bedrooms very comfortable.

Great Location

Kai Nui was a great location, walking distance to Shipwreck and Poipu beaches. The house is very spacious for our 2 families of 8 people. Lots of beach gear available with a wagon to bring them to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped, but the kitchen table could use a few more chairs to accommodate more than 6 people. All the showers included shampoo, conditioner and body wash, which was nice to have. We would definitely recommend this house to others.

Week in Kauai

The house was a wonderful home base for all of our adventures. We ate several meals and most breakfasts there. We enjoyed relaxing on the lanais. We loved walking on the paths to the coffee shop at the Hyatt, to watch the sunrise, to Poipu beach to swim/snorkel/watch the sunset n turtles, and to the pool. We enjoyed the restaurant right next to the pool. We admired all the beautiful flowers and plumeria trees along our walks. My son was so excited there was a lime tree in the back yard.

Family vacay

We had a wonderful time at Kai Nui. There were 8 of us total, 4 adults, 2 kids, and 2 teenagers. The pictures and description were accurate. The home was very clean and the island breeze was lovely with all of the windows open. The lanai was a great place to have a morning cup of coffee. The available beach gear was nice to have, although the umbrellas all could be replaced as they were either broken or barely functioning. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we would stay here again. Mahalo!

Wonderful stay with family

Our family had three generations staying in this lovely, spacious house. Great for sunrises and sunsets on the balconies, cooking meals together in the well-equipped kitchen, dinner on the deck, and games inside. Short walks along the green belt to Brennecke’s and Poipu as well as Shipwreck Beach, with a nice assortment of beach gear available to borrow. Management was very helpful and responsive. It was a wonderful stay!

Nice Place

The house is beautiful. The location is within walking distance to the beach. The bedrooms and bathrooms are perfect for couples who need their own space. The attached lanai with extra sleeping is nice if you don't mind your children sleeping basically a few feet away from you. The upstairs living area/kitchen/dining area can get pretty warm as this area is not air conditioned, but opening the windows and using the screen door allows it to cool down in the evening. If you plan to be in your bedroom or out exploring during the heat of the day this really isn't an issue.
