About this property

Beautiful Views, Walk To Beaches And Restaurants

Poipu Vista Villa is a custom designed home in Poipu Kai Resort. Ocean and mountain views are just the beginning for this Hawaiian paradise. The incredible design of this home literally brings the outdoors in, creating a place to relax in peace and privacy with beautiful panoramic views ranging from the mountains to the sea from the living area and wrap around lanai.

Upon your arrival you will know that you are 'Somewhere Special'. A 40 foot wall of glass paneled mahogany doors lead out into your very own private tropical garden with a lava rock sunken spa and pond with a walkway that winds you through a rainbow of colored tropical flowers and palms. The lushly landscaped grounds include orchids, tropical plants, banana and palm trees which greet you swaying in the gentle breezes.

When you finally make your way back indoors you will find it tastefully appointed in an Modern design reflecting style and grace with tile flooring and a open Hawaiian style, spacious floor plan. A custom gourmet kitchen with an island and granite counter tops over Sapele cabinets and breakfast bar seating for six persons. The dining area has seating for up to 10 persons at a formal but relaxed setting.

Poipu Villa Vista is set up on two levels which offers privacy to families traveling together and is ideal for family reunions. The first level is an Ohana, which has a separate entrance through French doors. This apartment includes two of the bedrooms and a bathroom along with a full second kitchen with granite counter tops and all new appliances including a large side by side refrigerator freezer with water and ice in the door, microwave and full oven and stove.

Our New Favorite!
My family and I have been traveling to Kauai a few times a year for 28 years. My parents live across the street from Wendy and Nick’s home and we’ve stayed in many rental homes in Poipu. This home is our favorite!

The Kawaii We Will Never Forget!
The property was perfect for our 9-person blended family - with its luxurious living environment, electronics, daily supplies, linens, hot tub, cooking/eating utensils, beach chairs, wagon, towels, and above all its proximity to beach and ocean views, all of which were over and above expectations. Wendy, the property owner, was helpful and informational, especially in advance of our arrival as we sought to make reservations for activities and limited dinner's out. It lent for a memorable vacation for all, exactly what we wanted for our children, grandchildren, and us as we celebrated our 50th anniversary. Thank you.

Beautiful house in great location!
We had a fantastic time in Kauai and this house was perfect for us! We had 3 young families with children ranging from just under 2 to 7 years old and this house had everything we would need. We loved having all of the things we needed to take to the beach including chairs, umbrellas, snorkels, body boards, puddle jumpers and a wago to tote it all. The deck was so nice to sit out on and had beautiful views. This is a prime location with easy access to many great places in Kauai. Would love to come back some day!

Terrific getaway
This was a spectacular home in an ideal location. We walked to the pool and beaches daily and found everything we needed in the home. It was ideal for myself, my children and 6 grandchildren--ages 1-13. I highly recommend staying here and working with Wendy--she was most helpful and responsive.

Amazing home!
It was such a treat to vacation in this gorgeous, luxurious, peaceful, and spacious home with our extended family! The house had everything that you could have asked for. The views were amazing. Wonderful beaches and a great community pool/spa were within a 10 minute walk. The property manager was super nice and very accommodating. Minor issues were quickly addressed. Highly recommend this home!

Ideal Family Location
We just completed a week's stay on Kauai. The location was ideal for many of the activities that Kauai has to offer. Stacy & Lauren were both responsive to any questions or needs that we had. We will most certainly stay here again in the future.

Family getaway
The house was absolutely perfect for our two families of 10! We loved the openess and there was plenty of seating for everyone. The driveway is definitely a climb, but as long as you approached and left at an angle it wasn't too bad. It was a great week!!

Amazing Property!
I can’t say enough about what an Amazing property this is. Wendy was a wonderful host providing us with “island favorites” for food and exploring before checking in. The home home was very spacious, comfortable, and beautiful! It was everything we hoped for! We were furnished with all the necessities we could ask for from kitchen appliances, to beach towels and beach equipment. Everything was included. The location was also perfect. This was truly an amazing property and we hope to return again some day!

Just WOW!
Absolutely incredible home, even more spectacular than the pictures. We appreciated all of the thoughtful details in addition to the big-ticket features. The kitchen is loaded with everything we needed including super helpful extras like Tupperware, pantry items, and welcome beer and wine. So nice! The house is simply fantastic. It was great to have a separate unit downstairs for our large family gathering. So many different nooks and crannies for morning coffee and cocktail hour. The kids loved exploring and taking over the downstairs when the adults got too adultish. Wendy is such a generous host. Instant replies to any needs we had. Her on-island manager was also extra special. They were so kind to accommodate our needs. I just can’t say enough good things about our experience. It was the perfect location for a splurge vacation celebrating my mom’s 80th. We hope to be back soon!

The Poipu Vista Villa is a large family oriented home with plenty of room to accommodate our family of 11. It is perfectly located in the Poipu Kai Resort area, close to beaches, restaurants and shops. Sand toys for the kids were provided along with a crib and stroller. We had a wonderful vacation.

A week in paradise!
Our Ohana by blood and blessing (ages 2 months to 62 yrs) spent an unforgettable week in this exquisite and beautiful home in Koloa. Thoughtful touches, such as beach items, paper supplies, soaps, shampoo, conditioner, and pantry dry goods, made our transition to vacation seamless. Wendy was prompt in responding to our needs. The location can’t be beat! Though beautiful, after staying in the North Shore on our previous visit, we will only return to Poipu — and hopefully this amazing home. Thank you for making our vacation memorable and the best ever. Mahalo!

Great Poipu Location
We were a family of 6 and this house was great in terms of location and space. There is a separate entrance downstairs with a full apartment - this was good for the teens to have their own space. The upstairs is the real stunner though - newly updated, great views from the upstairs lanai and a nice breeze - backyard has a lovely hot tub and very nice tropical landscaping. Master suite is very large, beds were quite comfortable. House had everything we could possibly need - even something as random as a charger I forgot for our speaker, they had one! Bedroom AC units were very nice to have. Owners were prompt and responsive to a couple of minor issues we had. Location cannot be beat - 13 minutes walking with a surfboard to the far end of Poipu beach and less than 10 minutes to watch the sunrise at Shipwreck Beach. Our teens made the walk to Little Fish and Starbucks easily too. Overall, great spot for the start of our Kauai vacation!

Wonderful stay
Great property in a fantastic neighborhood. Upper floor is amazing. Great style with windows providing views you want during your stay. The lower level provides amenities need for your stay but it's not comparable to the upper level. Needs updating to catch up. We reached out a couple times to property owners/ managers and the response was always prompt. You will love your stay here. Very short walk to Shipwreck Beach. We drove all over the island and this property is on the best area. Wonderful. Thank you!

THE PERFECT STAY IN PARADISE!
We cannot rave enough about Wendy and her beautiful home. Our great experience began months before our stay with spectacular communication from Wendy. She quickly responded to all our silly questions and graciously offered lots of recommendations. Communication, amenities, location, cleanliness, space and comfort was like 15 out of 10. We’d stay again in a heartbeat! Her home was not only beautiful and spacious for the 9 of us, but had literally everything you could think of to make it beyond comfortable. The beds were insanely comfortable, the kitchen is loaded to the brim with everything you need, there was laundry detergents, toiletries in the bathroom, tons of board games (the adults loved playing games when the babies went to bed!), beach goodies like chairs, a wagon and loads of toys/life jackets, floaties, snorkel gear, etc. The backyard and front lanai offer beautiful outdoor settings that we enjoyed daily. The downstairs apartment was also huge! It even had a mini crib, kitchen, baby wallet and tons of extra space. Everything was updated and so clean (I’m a germaphobe and picky so don’t say this lightly). Our stay was incredible in every way! We will keep memories with us forever and are so thankful for the opportunity to stay here! Thank you for everything Wendy!

About the host

Hosted by Nick and Wendy

Host profile image
We live in the beautiful Town Los Gatos in Northern California. Nick is originally from England and Wendy from Southern California, but we have both lived in Silicon Valley for over 20 years. We have been married for 18 years and have three fantastic children. We are excited to take over the management of this longtime successful Poipu vacation rental !

Why they chose this property

We enjoy traveling to the Hawaiian Islands and have enjoyed many family vacations on Hawaii, Maui and Kauai. But our favorite spot is Poipu in Kauai. On our last trip Nick came across Poipu Villa Vista on his morning run, on a whim he picked up a flyer. Low and behold we are now the proud owners!
Poipu Villa Vista has been a successful rental for several years, and under the previous owner had a strong history of happy customers. We are excited for the opportunity to continue providing happy memories for many more families!

What makes this property unique

The panoramic views from this Poipu Kai Crestview home are reason enough to stay. However with it's 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths it can easily house two families, so we can travel with our friends and family and so can you. The size and location close to beaches make for endless possibilities. Maybe you will see a Monk Seal on Poipu Beach at sundown, or boogie board every morning at Shipwreck beach, get a great massage at the Hyatt, cruise the NaPali coast in a catamaran and visit Waimea Canyon just to name a few. Sunny Poipu is a great spot to hang out or launch your explorations. Enjoy Kauaui!
