About this property

Spectacular Oceanfront Corner Unit Condo at Kuhio Shores

Closest complex to the water in Poipu, this corner unit in Kuhio Shores is situated on the third floor. Repeat guests come year after year to enjoy our air conditioned oceanfront condo. Whether it's to be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves, relaxing on the lanai enjoying a drink or watching the surfers, whales or the family of sea turtles that come in every evening to feed, staying here will be the highlight of your trip!
Our condo is a one bedroom with a king size bed. The bathroom is inside the bedroom. The fully-equipped kitchen has a blender, microwave, coffee maker, etc. We have beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella and cooler for guests to use. Laundry facilities are on each floor of the complex.
Compared to other one bedroom units our corner unit has several advantages. The view is spectacular--270 degrees. You can look out towards the bay and the green mountains beyond, and all the way around, down the coast of Poipu. Whales, porpoise, surfers and turtles can all be enjoyed from the privacy of your lanai. Speaking of privacy, our bedroom is on the ocean side, not along the hallway on the parking lot side. All you hear are the waves, not late night departing or early arriving guests with their suitcases. Whether you are honeymooners or retirees you will definitely appreciate the privacy. The corner units are the largest by square footage with a larger living room area. Another advantage of our corner unit is the superior ventilation. Huge bay windows facing into the trade winds allow flow through ventilation when the ocean side windows or sliding door are open. We also just added air conditioning for the rare days when the tradewinds don't cool you enough.
Be sure to click on the camera below for photos from our last stay. They include underwater shots of the turtles that can be seen by diving right out front of the condo, or in the evening from the lanai.

Loved it!
What a beautiful home we stayed in! Outstanding ocean and bay views. Loved being on the third floor, had total privacy and enjoyed seeing numerous turtles cruising by. Condo was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. King bed was comfy and loved listening to the waves break just yards away while falling alseep. A/C was wonderful to have. Perfect location as many resturants or stores are just a few minutes away. Visited our three favorite restaurants again. Tidepools, Keoki's, and Gaylords. Enjoyed the Sugarloaf Pineapple Farm and highly recommend the Makai Golf Course Sunset Tour. Inexpensive and was the highlight of our trip!

The perfect south shore property
This Kuhio Shores #309 rental was the most well equipped of all the VRBO rentals I've ever stayed in. Usually there is something missing, either flatware, toilet paper, whatever,...but not here. It had everything you could imagine and more. More pots and pans, towels, sheets, paper goods, even a drawer full of various ziplock bags! And the view is AMAZING. Every afternoon we watched turtles frolicking in the surf below the lanai and the adjacent Lawai beach had some pretty decent snorkeling for Kauai. The location is also perfect, being near all the south shore hot spots. In conclusion we loved our stay. A+

Perfect Getaway
True paradise. Love this corner unit condo. Will definitely stay here again. It has everything. Clean. Comfy bed. Full kitchen. Unmatched views of the ocean. Turtles right outside the windows all day long. Minutes from Poipu Beach and shopping. Beach House restaurant right next door is the best on the island. This was exactly what my wife and I were hoping for on Kauai. Check out Kauai Coffee Company. Condo host is real good communicator. Mahalo!

Magnificent Views!
We spent a week in this delightful corner condo and the views are spectacular! There’s a beautiful cove to the east and open ocean to the south. Breathtaking! Every day we enjoyed watching surfers and turtles from the balcony. The living area in the condo is bright, very spacious, and comfortable. The kitchen is well designed and well equipped. The king bed is comfortable and there is ample storage; a huge closet, a chest of drawers, and two night stands. Window shutters in the bedroom provide privacy and darkness for late sleepers. There are coin operated laundry facilities on each floor. We loved the condo complex location. There’s a fabulous restaurant right next door, The Beach House, which has excellent food and lawn seating overlooking the ocean. The small beach next to that is great for snorkeling. We saw so many colorful fish! I would not hesitate to book this beautiful place!

Kauai condo...over the top!
This amazing condo is an over the top experience for living aloha on the Island of Kauai! 30 feet from the Ocean in front and a Bay on the side. The views are spectacular! Everything was so welcoming and had all the creature comforts of home and then some. Booking was a breeze! Prompt response to our questions. Coffee every morning on the lanai with breathtaking views of the ocean and the honu, sea turtles. We stayed mid April 2023 and never needed AC. We loved having the windows open and hearing the waves at night! Very safe location. The host and Vrbo agent, Jennifer K were fabulous and very accommodating to our schedule. This is a great location to base out of for day trips. Snorkeled with the sea turtles and marine life. If you want a truly memorable stay in Kauai, you've found the right place! So happy we did! Mahalo!

Beautiful view!
Lovely view of the ocean on two sides of the condo. You can't be any closer to the ocean without being in it! We watched the turtles swimming and surfers surfing every day from the balcony. Snorkeling is just a short walk away on Lawai beach. The condo was clean, well stocked and decor had a local Hawaiian vibe. The location is well situated to south and west end island amenities and activities. I would definitely recommend!

We loved this property! We spent so much time watching the sea life from the balcony. We saw turtles and whales while enjoying our morning coffee, can’t really beat that! The condo is close to a lot of beaches, shops, and activities. It is stocked with all the basics of what we needed for our vacation, including beach gear and a fully stocked kitchen. The condo was very spacious and comfortable, we had a wonderful time!

Can't beat these views!
From the moment we walked in and saw the incredible ocean views, we were so happy we decided to stay here. Loved spending time on the lanai, or sitting in the living room just watching the ocean, with the turtles, whales, surfers, snorkelers, sunrises... Going to sleep with the sound of the waves or waking to views of the starry sky in the middle of the night were also highlights. Loved our stay!

Oceanfront stay in Poipu
The light-filled corner unit practically hung over the crashing surf - delightful! An older unit so plenty of space. Well equipped - the mattress was extremely comfortable. Right next to our favorite restaurant - the Beach House - and a good snorkeling beach.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Kiriakos

Host profile image
We are a family of seven (Girls 3, Boys 2) plus 5 grandkids and live in Southern California. We love to travel to new places but always enjoy coming back to our 'Home away from home' on Kauai.

Why they chose this property

The entire family loves the water so Kauai is a perfect place to play. We have owned Kuhio Shores #309 for over 40 years and purchased a second unit (#109) in Spring 2020.
Surfing, boogie boarding, diving, kayaking and enjoying the ocean views and sea life from our condo's lanai makes Kuhio Shores #109 & #309 perfect for us. We can enjoy these activities right out front while other family members can watch from the lanai.

What makes this property unique

Even though we have been coming to Kauai for over 40 years, sometimes several times a year, we still find new things to do and wonders to see. Petroglyphs at Maha'ulepu Beach, the Awa'awapuhi Swamp Trail, Lawai Beach (restricted access), ocean kayaking to Kipu Kai, Kalihiwai rope swing, river Kayaking (Hanalei, Waimea, Kalihiwai), swimming behind Hanakapi'ai Falls on the Napali coast, Secret Beach, the list goes on. Our condo is central, 1 hr. from the west end of Polihale Beach and 90 minutes to the other end at Ke'e Beach. Of course sometimes the best thing is just to kick back on our lanai and watch the whales, surfers and turtles with a cold drink in hand.
