Pure nirvana at the ocean’s edge, this 913 sq ft Superior Ocean Front suite wows with waves crashing against lava rocks just feet beyond your private lanai.

You’ll also enjoy floor-to-ceiling sliders allowing gorgeous Pacific vistas to flow into the living area with tasteful tropical décor, washer/dryer, DVD, flat screens, WiFi, ceiling fans and cool tile floors.

An ocean panorama also highlights the master suite with its ultra chic bath featuring a walk-in shower with rain shower-head. Sleeps 4 in 1 King Bed and 2 Twins (that can be converted into 1 King Bed upon request).

Slice of paradise!

Each winter my husband and I look for a getaway that allows us to slow down, connect, and feel as if we are the only ones in the world. This condo checked all of the boxes!With a perfect location on the third floor and master bedroom boasting a panoramic window facing the surf you feel as if you are sleeping on the beach. All the while in the comfort of a 5 star hotel. The property is clean and well laid out. The kitchen is nicely equipped, making it easy to cook in as often as Timor wish. Bathrooms are generous and well planned. With the property surrounded by both residential and resort property, every one is very respectful of noise levels and privacy. My family absolutely recommends this property for a quiet getaway as a couple or family.

Sunsets, rainbows, whales and turtles

We love this place! It was perfect for our family and we enjoyed the beautiful views. We cooked there every day and would have liked a little more than just salt and pepper. But other than that, it had everything we needed. We will definitely be back and look forward to staying again.

You can’t beat the view! The location of the condo was great! The overall space worked well for our family. We enjoyed the pool and walking down to the local beach. My only critique would be that having essentials such as soap and shampoo available and complimentary would be great. Mahalo

This unit is clean and the location is Awesome. The views are “WOW”. However, It should be made more clear in the unit discription that “there is no air conditioning “. This fact was clearly left out. Otherwise, it was a great stay.

Incredible Ocean Views

This property has the most incredible views of the ocean that I have ever seen looking out from the lanai. Everything listed is spot on. Communication with Kahea was great. She or someone else responded promptly. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone who wants to be near Poipu Beach.

Turtle Paradise with Spectacular View

My husband and I stayed here for 6 days. The view is incredible! That was definitely our favorite part of the property. However, what we didn't realize was with the amazing view and proximity to the water how loud the waves could be at night when we were trying to sleep (we are somewhat light sleepers though). The swimming pool area was great for watching the turtles in the cove below and the sunsets in the evening. We were a little bummed that there wasn't any beach equipment to use and the kitchen wasn't as well stocked as we expected. Overall we enjoyed our stay. It was an easy walk to Poipu Beach; where we watched the turtles come onto shore to sleep at night.

Highly recommended

Check in was a breeze. Was contacted ahead of time to let me know some facts about the condo. The condo was well equipped with lots of paper products and soaps for dish washer and clothing washer. The bed was comfortable and the waves crashing against the rocks was like a lullaby for sleeping. There is no AC but worth the fans and the winds the home stayed cool.

Absolutely beautiful location. Short walk to the beach but wonderful pool. No air conditioning which made it uncomfortable the first couple of days with the higher humidity. No AC was not advertised and we assumed it would have one. VRBO service fee is excessive…should be 5%-10%…they charged 17%.
