Beautiful house, good location, good view.
Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of construction going on. Redoing the roof and gutters on the building that was right next to us. The construction work with very loud and right out our window was the dumpster. What a bummer Challenged to get to the pool at this time because of all the equipment.
I’d go back there and stay again when there wasn’t construction. I just wish that we were informed about the construction going on. We would’ve picked a different location. I feel that we were ripped off.

This property is central to many popular experiences on the South Shore of Kauai. Check in was easy, communication was wonderful, and the unit itself was immaculate. The air conditioning in the master suite was a wonderful treat. Thank you very much for sharing your home with us. We truly enjoyed our stay.

We definitely had a five star experience! The condo was as advertised – everything about our stay was perfection! The hosts were responsive and kind. The condo was so comfortable and clean. We loved having the washer and dryer available as well as the fans in the rooms. We loved the second floor balcony for hanging out and the proximity to the beach and pool was unparalleled. We can’t say enough good things about this condo and we plan on returning!

We selected this home due to proximity to the Hyatt and the very favorable and accurate reviews. It was a pleasant 5 minute walk to my daily CME meetings at the Poipu Grand Hyatt. Every convenience was available and enjoyed. The lack of air conditioning might not suit those with poor tolerance for warm climates, but we felt fine.

This vacation home exceeded all expectations! The stunning views truly made our trip unforgettable, and the location couldn’t have been better—close to everything we wanted to see. Even with some nearby construction, it didn’t impact our stay at all, which was a pleasant surprise. The views and location alone make this place a must-stay. Highly recommended!

This would have been a great stay but for the construction noise. Although we had been informed there would be construction, we were led to believe this would have little effect on our stay at the property we were moved to. That was untrue as there was large machinery that was very large. the noise and shrill beeping would begin at around 7:30 AM and go until around 5:00 PM. It did not make you want to stay at the property during those times. Sleeping in was an impossibility.

The unit was in a great location on the island. 5 minute walk to the beach, supplied beach chairs came in handy. The unit itself is very nice. Note that there is no air conditioning which did make for some hot days but there are lots of fans available.

They were re-roofing the building. Over the weekend it was fine. There was a lot of equipment around, but that was ok. Then on Monday there was construction all day! There was loud banging, equipment beeping and debris all over the ground. Also the smell of the port-a-potty was a little overwhelming! I felt while they were doing that building they should not have it rented.
It also was disappointing that the whole unit was not air conditioned, only portable a/c units in the bedrooms.

This condo is in a great location and we enjoyed our time here. The condo was very clean and exactly as described. It was nice to be close to the ocean but also have access to a beautiful pool area as well.
Communication was great with Kathy and she was always very responsive.

We booked this for our anniversary and the host had a note and little gift greeting us to the place. The room where was outstanding – from the minute we walked in until we left. The lanai overlooks Shipwreck beach, and it was delightful to watch the sun rise every morning. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - very comfortable bed and we loved having the AC for our bedroom at night. We would come back to this unit on future trips.

This ground floor home is adorable. She has thought of everything, Its close to resorts with amazing food. Enjoyed spending our last 3 nights on the south shore. The AC in the bedroom gets the room perfect to fall asleep. I am a light sleeper and needed to get ear plugs so it could be run off and on at night as needed. We were very busy and did not hang out during the day. We used the pool once it was a great cool off at the end of the day.

The location of the property was wonderful. Easy walk to the beach where we were able to see sea turtles every day.
The interior of the property needs updating. The couch has springs coming through and the bathrooms need some updating also.

Great place to stay in Kauai. South is a great central location, and you can’t beat the views at this place. Kitchen and condo is well stocked. Loved the beach chairs, towels, and 2 coolers. Only drawback was no A/C. We had no wind our first 2 days and nearly perished from the heat.

We really loved our stay. Everything was as described. Clean, well cared for, beautiful views, close to the beach and to the resort pool, comfortable bed, nice thick towels, kitchen had what we needed, spacious rooms. Loved the extras like the newer beach chairs, noodles (for floating or snorkeling), beach towels, beach umbrella, and there was a great jigsaw puzzle we put together throughout the week too! We had a great visit and would love to return sometime!!

This is a great property to stay on, proximity to beaches, beach hike and restaurants can’t be beat. The unit itself was incredibly spacious for our four adult family. Unit was clean, plenty of air flow and fans, beds were comfortable and all appliances were in working condition.
We couldn’t have asked for more.

Poipu Sands 513 was the perfect condo for us. Beautiful view of shipwreck beach and the walking path was nice through the Grand Hyatt property. We enjoyed our stay and will be back in the future.

Discription said there was sleeper sofa. No sleeper sofa.
There’s only 2 washcloths in the bathroom. Kitchen did not have a single kitchen cloth to wipe counters down. Vacuum sweeper did not work. Didn’t pick up anything. Spitting stuff out from it. Chairs on patio need replaced. Rusted terrible.

Good location, the grounds are pretty and clean.
The condo can use some upgrading and a good clean.
Furniture to big for condo.
Carpets and tile grout were dirty and has ants.
We did keep everything in the refrigerator and microwave.
Over all this is a good condo and a great location.

Great location! Walking distance to Shipwreck beach and 5 minute drive to other beaches. Poipu beach great for all ages! The condo was very well equipped. Everything you need. Very comfortable and felt like home.. No air conditioning but plenty of fans everywhere.

The property is pleasant and as advertised. It’s in a beautiful part of the island with peak-of-the-Pacific views. The grounds of the Poipu Sands community are well-maintained. The unit itself is spacious, bright, and well-laid out. The decor is simple but functional. Throughout, the owners were clear and responsive in their communications.
Just two small caveats. Although it’s true that the unit is a short (5-7 min) walk to the Hyatt, the hotel has a strictly enforced policy of only admitting guests or day pass-holders ($100 per person) onto the pools and facilities. To that extent, proximity to the Hyatt can’t be said to be a selling point. In addition, it’s important to be very conscientious about cleaning up sand (make time to vacuum all the rugs at least once before leaving!). This is something the owners feel strongly about.

We loved this property for its closeness to Shipwreck Beach. Everything that you could think of was supplied by the owner. The only issue I had was operating the TV! The 2 remotes were confusing to this older lady. Following the instructions left by the owner didn't always work, but then who watches that much TV when you are vacationing in paradise. I highly recommend this property!

Overall the condo was great. The location is perfect. The listing said pullout couch. Which I contacted the host after we arrived . They stated pullout couch after I said there was not. To find there is an air mattress. We lost power one day. To find it was a main breaker. When we realized it was only our until after going out for the day. The lady in the office was incredibly nice and was there very quickly. I also thought I had locked us out one time and called the office. Again, the office lady/host was incredibly nice and patient when we realized on of our kids had a spare key on their bag we were taking with us.
The AC units are OK. The main bedroom works well it’s a small space for it. The second one in the living space barely cools that space and not the 2nd bedroom. We only used them at night while sleeping.
Overall, it is a nice place to stay. Location is perfect. They were incredibly helpful.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our first trip to Kauai. Everything you could possibly need for a comfortable trip is supplied from Beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, boogie boards, pool toys, tennis rackets etc. There is so much more but there isn’t room to mention it all. Being on the ground floor and just steps away from the pool was so nice! It’s a very quick and beautiful walk to shipwreck beach, and about a 10 min car ride to Brenneke and Poipu beaches. We ate in so many great restaurants, Keoki’s Paradise was a favorite but they’re all great. We drove into Koloa, great little shops, lovely selection of places to eat. We traveled all over the island, stunning scenery everywhere! Waimea canyon looks like a painting. And so nice to come back at the end of the day to relax in this beautiful condo. Very comfortable beds. It was a bit hot some nights with no AC but there are plenty of ceiling and plug in fans to help keep you cool. This is a really nice place to stay and we will be back for sure!

We loved the condo and the location is great (nice and close to everything). This is my new favorite island and we will definitely be back!
As far as the condo, there is plenty of space to spread out and the kitchen/bathrooms are well stocked. My girls loved having access to the athletic club which was a huge plus.

Thank you for everything!

The condo is located in a great location with an easy walk to both Shipwrecks and Poipu beach. Grand Hyatt and nice landscaping made short walks to Shipwrecks particularly enjoyable. We loved the stay and everything in the condo worked out great. The unit was well stocked with kitchen stuff which made cooking easy. 1st floor location made in and out easy. Nice place.

Gosh! What a wonderful stay! Booking a VRBO is sometimes like a ‘shot in the dark.’ You hope its as advertised. This condo was so well appointed! Spacious and the view, breathtaking! We slept w/the windows and screen doors. The ocean breeze was so lovely. Everything you need is there in the condo. Beach bag, small/large cooler, snorkeling equipment, beach chairs (4), boogie boards, water toys. The kitchen is well stocked w/all the appliances you need. Trash bags, dish soap, paper towels, toilet tissue, shampoo/conditioner, hand soaps, and lotion. There was even two boxes of kleenex in each bedroom. Charging stations, games, puzzles, beach towels. Really we lacked for nothing. We chose to eat out. We bought coffee supplies, water and simple breakfast items. There is a brita water pitcher in the fridge, too. Ashely was wonderful w/her communication and checking in with us occasionally and answering our questions quickly when we contacted her. 100% recommend!! This is a third floor unit and although It wasn’t a deal breaker, something to consider if mobility is an issue. Thank you for a memorable stay!!

This property was wonderful and everything we could’ve needed for the week for our family of four. Quick access to groceries, shopping, short walk to the beach, fans in the evening when it got warm were very helpful. This is a very special unit that is set apart from the rest of the complex, and was perfect for morning coffee and late night relaxation after a long day of traveling around the island.
The condo included everything we could need for the stay, all appliances, great separation of space, very comfortable beds and couch. The pool is just beautiful, larger than most complexes and very rarely does it get busy. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Great location! Awesome view from the large patio that covers the living area as well as bedroom. Beach chairs and cooler were very handy. We brought way too many clothes and still used the washer and dryer and provided detergent. I can’t think of anything that wasn’t provided here. Always had parking available. Definitely going to stay here again.

This is one of the most well equipped vacation rental that we've ever stayed at. All you could ask for and then some.
From the well equipped kitchen , the Bbq supplies , and beach chairs and umbrellas, this unit has it all. And of course the peaceful and beautiful view was very relaxing. I'd highly recommend this VRBO . We had a very nice stay. thank You.

Great location! Well stocked kitchen. I would recommend a tile grout and carpet cleaning, but otherwise was nicely cleaned. Sleeping without ac was a little uncomfortable, but the location made up for it. The Murphy bed was very comfortable (but I couldn’t find sheets so used the top sheet from the master bed. Overall, a very nice trip. Thank you!
