This lovely condo is perfect for families who want to relax by the pool, enjoy a short walk to the beach (at the Sheraton), or enjoy all that southern Kauai has to offer. The complex only has a few units, so it's quiet and you basically have the pool to yourself most of the time. The kitchen has everything you need to stay in & cook and the "beach closet" has everything you need to go out on adventures! We would come back in a heartbeat!

We stayed last year in this property but another unit. Love the property, pool is beautiful and well maintained. Grills and selection of beach toys made our stay even better. Would stay again in this property during future Kauai visits.

If you read this, book this unit. This unit is located within a quiet 6 unit building. The smaller size condo facility means minimal issues with crowded pool and peaceful mornings and sunsets.
You can’t beat this location. It’s walkable (about 7 minutes) to the Sheraton beach or 5 min drive to the best boogie boarding beach (Brennecke)
House is homey, has all the goodies (sunscreen/boards/watershoes/towels/beach toys), kitchen has everything you could need
Love the removable shower heads for easy post beach showers.
Washer and dryer work great. Note: the dryer does have a loud long signal when done. I couldn’t figure out how to turn off. I don’t think you can.
The views are breath taking. Sunsets shine here.
Does have AC but you can also open the door in the primary bedroom to enjoy the trade winds
Our only thoughts on what could be better: the mattresses and pillows. Nothing compares to your own bed but these beds were very firm. The pillows flat. That aside, we would rebook this house in a heartbeat. If you read all this, I hope you realize what a great unit this is.

It would be difficult to find a better location than this intimate six-plex location directly on the ocean with private pool. Complete transaction and stay were seamless and easy. My only wish for this property is to have some more comfortable seating for the Lanai. This is where people want to enjoy this location and standard aluminum chairs are just uncomfortable for relaxing or reading. Still a five star stay!

The views of the property were amazing. Alihi Lani 2 was well stocked with any essentials you need for your stay. The boogie boards, sunscreen, bug spray, water shoes and umbrella in the cabinet were a nice surprise. The AC in the unit was also a nice touch. We enjoyed watching the sunset and sunrise on the balcony and seeing the sea turtles in the ocean right in front of the condo. The condo is also located walking distance to markets and restaurants. We will definitely stay here again for our next trip to Kauai.

This unit was wonderful! Spectacular views! Super clean, beautiful decor, very well stocked. There was a shelf that had bug spray, sunblock, and toothpaste as well! Showers had shampoo/conditioner/body wash/soap. There were plenty of bed linens, pillows, and towels! It really felt like home.
The only reason I knocked down to 4 stars was a more personal preference....making these small changes would make this unit go from Amazing to PERFECT: adding the smaller beach chairs (there were two large camping chairs that we felt were too big for beach lounging so we didn't use them), adding a wagon to supplies closet would be super helpful for the renters! And maybe a more private door to the main bedroom would be nice.
Overall, we would definitely want to stay here again!

We loved our stay at Alihi Lani! The condo was great and had everything we needed. The views were spectacular and we loved the pool. This will be our go-to condo on any future stays in Kauai!

My boyfriend and I loved our stay. The location was great. We enjoyed eating meals on the patio with the gorgeous view. Easy walk to the shopping center and the beach at the Sheraton. And a highlight was the turtles swimming right out front! We would definitely stay here again!

Property is exactly as described and this is our second time staying in this location. It’s perfect waking distance to a very nice beach and a shopping center with lots of food options. The condo has most everything you need to be very comfortable, and we enjoyed the pool. Views from the lanai can’t be beat!

Alihi Lani 2 is an amazing location with nice amenities. Beautiful ocean view from the back porch, and a short walk to the beach. The pool was lovely, and we enjoyed many sunsets from the backyard area. The hosts were helpful and easy to communicate with. Over all a great stay and fairly priced.

We had a wonderful stay here. The view was breathtaking everyday, especially the sunsets. Everything was clean, well stocked with fresh linens, and other necessities. Easy walking distance to shops and the beach. We had a wonderful time staying here and if we ever make it back to Kauai, we’ll definitely be staying here again! Love the pool as well!

Condo was clean, comfortable and in a great location. Loved being near Poipu beach and seeing the turtles every day. Would recommend getting an umbrella or shade for the lanai as very hot in afternoon without it. Great pool.

Amazing location. Very clean, well equipped and the pool was perfect. So quiet, and the locations was walking distance to all we love. My only negative, and it won’t prevent us from staying again, was the master bed was very firm, too firm. Thanks for everything, and booking again soon!!

My partner and I had a wonderful time at the property. Spectacular location with whales swimming past all day, we could watch them from the balcony or pool deck, also a short walk to beautiful swimming beaches and shops. Very comfortable beds, couch and all the conveniences of home. Would recommend!

We had a wonderful few days at this beautiful condo. It is very clean, large and comfortable. It is well stocked with linens, kitchen supplies, beach chairs, umbrellas, paper products and toiletries. The setting is gorgeous, and the grounds and pool are well maintained. We saw whales from the deck and enjoyed the sunset each evening. We could not have asked for more.

Our family was on the Hawaiian Air flight coming from Phoenix to Honolulu on December 18th that hit severe turbulence...dropping 800 feet in 12 seconds. My husband was injured and had to be taken to a local hospital to be checked out. He was not critically injured but suffered lacerations, neck injury and concussion. We were all a bit traumatized. This condo was just what we needed to restabilize ourselves. Simply gorgeous with an unbelievable view. The condo was clean and well supplied. The location was perfect ...central to everything we were interested in doing. We can't say enough good things about this place. It spoiled us...we're in Maui right now and not totally enthralled with our current condo. I recommend this place 100%!
Thanks for sharing this gem!!

Condo was lovely and well laid out, accurately described in the posting. Gets a fantastic cross breeze with the sliders opened so we never even used the a/c. Kitchen had the basics, bathrooms had loads of towels, washer/dryer was so handy. Sitting on the lanai is heaven and just steps from the pool. Property manager was super responsive. Agree with another reviewer that a 2nd king bed instead of the 2 twins in the 2nd bedroom would be an improvement for couples traveling together, but otherwise the space was really nice and it’s a great location.

Excellent location, excellent property, sunset every night. Would be very nice to exchange the twin beds for a second King bed, as much better for couples, and kids could still share. Well represented in the description. Thanks Anne

We had a wonderful time. The condo was spacious & clean, with an amazing view. It was lovely waking up to the sunshine on the water, and seeing the sunset every evening. It was about a 3 minute walk to the beach, and 5 to the shops. A really great location!

This is great kept secret. Close to the main beach and beautiful view if you want stay home and lounge. The pool is perfect and condo is fully stocked. Bed are comfy too! We will definitely be back!

The property has an amazing location in Poipu, overlooking the ocean. At the same time you have a pool in the front yard and can go to the near by beaches for surfing or snorkeling. There are shopping options within 8 min. walk.
The communication with the property manager was easy and quick. Check-in super easy. McKenzie and someone else welcomed us and made sure everything was okay. We received little welcome gifts and local flowers (very nice touch!). We had pre-ordered a roll-away which was not in the condo when we arrived. However McKenzie took care and was able to get delivered at the same day.
The condo itself was better stocked than any other places we stayed before; with soap, shampoo, toilet paper, basic spices, coffee for the first days, paper towels etc. It was easy to settle in.
Couple things I would like to mention to have possibly addressed:
- Bed sheets (at least for the Twin beds) did not fit the beds. After every night you had to put the bottom sheets back on as the corners did not hold the sheets very well.
- Not good smelling towels, as if they had been left in the washer for a couple days before they were dried.
- Twin beds in all 4 corners where the mattress lies are full of dust
Again, nothing major, but maybe information you want to give to the housekeepers.
The condo itself and the service of the management team made this vacation perfect and unforgettable. Thank You!

A wonderful property in Poipu, the home offered us all kinds of space to spread out. The view from the home and lanai are perfect and the toys and beach equipment were a pleasant surprise! Everything was easy to find and convenient, we highly recommend this rental!

Perfect place to come and relax. We walked to the beach, swam in the pool, and had a great time. They have all the beach gear, which we used. The condo was well-appointed, and we loved our stay.

Great location. Ocean and sunset bkews from the lanai. Saw several green flashes. Close to shopping and restaurants.
A screen for the lanai to moderate late afternoon sun would be a nice addition.

This was a beautiful place to stay. We loved that the pool was right outside our room and very central location. Waking up to the ocean view in the morning and enjoying our breakfast while watching whales breach was a big highlight for our stay here. Mahalo for your accommodation. We have this place saved for our next trip to kauai.

We had a lovely time staying in the condo. Great location to the beach with. Short walk to the Sheraton beach. So many whales and dolphins and turtles to see right from the patio. Condo is equipped with beach chairs and umbrellas and ice chest. Easy parking and great communication. We would definitely stay here again. Teens loved watching the geckos & lizards taking Instagram photos. There is a pineapple and banana tree out back and the pool was a nice temperature with solar heating. Such a Beautiful island. Thank you for your hospitality!

It was a totally refreshing experience, renting this condo, as EVERYTHING was EXACTLY as described and as we expected! The posted pictures of the condo, as well as the written description are not misleading at all. We had various questions prior to, and during, our stay that we texted to the property manager and received a quick answer each time. There was no problem at all that we encountered.
The location is PERFECT! We loved the view from the unit from the minute we arrived. Every morning we would have our coffee/breakfast out on the lanai and watch the whales, then every evening we would sit outside on the lanai and enjoy the spectacular sunsets! So relaxing! We both hated to leave to go back home. We are looking forward to coming back and staying again!
There were 2 minor complaints, and only 2, that we can think of. First, the wicker patio furniture on the lanai was beginning to break apart due to sun damage, however that did not deter us from using it. Secondly, the swimming pool water temperature was just too cold for us, or any of the other guests, to use the pool. Not a deal breaker though, because we spent most of our days at the various beaches anyway.
Thank you so much for letting us stay at this amazing place!!!

We stayed a week in this condo. The location was perfect. Walk to beaches, restaurants and shops. Pool just steps from your door. The ocean and turtle watching steps across the road. WE will be back and hopefully will have the opportunity to stay in this unit again. The beds were comfy.. The kitchen well stocked. But the best was location, porch and pool. Perfect. It was about 25 minutes from airport. 45 minutes to Princeville. 20 minutes to Waileau Falls, 30 minutes to Waimea Canyon. Like I said perfect. Golf course within 3-5 minute drive.

Great location, nice pool
Overall the place was as advertised
On the negative side the furniture, and Kitchen appliances are quite dated
They need to update the bedding sheets and towels.
This is a 6 unit condo and from what we saw the other units have newer everything including automatic shades on the Lanai

During our recent vacation in Kauai, we stayed here for 5 out of our 15 days. It was our favorite condo due to the location, cleanliness and wonderful pool/barbecue. The air conditioner worked great and the beds were very comfortable. There are only 6 units and we felt like our neighbors were our community during our stay. While we were there, the pool rules did change from pool closing at 9 to closing at 8. We do feel this is a little early as the first couple of nights people were barbecuing, enjoying the sunset with a little dip in the pool until about 8:30. This does seem limiting especially for families with children. Now, seems more to target adult vacation. The only other drawback was 4 chairs were provided for the beach, etc. Two were comfortable and two were very old and not comfortable (taller blue chairs). Also the beach umbrellas were broken and in August the sun is very strong. Still, we loved this condo and are thankful for our stay.

This property was great. Clean, well stocked and very attentive property management team. They checked in several times on us. The lanai was heaven and the pool was awesome. Every sunset incredible. Short walks /drives to restaurants and more. We went there for a wedding at the Sheraton right down the street and we were so happy to come home to this place every evening for sunset, wine and stargazing. My Happy Place!

Our family enjoying this condo with gorgeous views, close access to Poipu beach and a pool. The condo has lots of great beach accessories to use -- including beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, etc. which were much appreciated.

This was the perfect spot for our family of 5. Walking distance to everything. Hanging out by the pool and BBQing was the perfect way to end the day after exploring other areas in Poipu.
Beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels helped make our days at the local beaches extra enjoyable.
The kitchen had everything we needed for meal prep and the bathrooms even had shampoo and body wash for our convenience.
This is a wonderful property in a fantastic location. We will be back.
Also, thanks to the property management for accommodating our slightly early check in and check out. This made our trip go extra smooth.

I stayed here with two grandkids, ages 12 and 15. The condo had a good configuration for the 3 of us - separate bedroom and bath for me with the second bedroom and bath around a corner.
The unit was very clean and well-furnished. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need and we definitely appreciated the in-unit laundry. There are plenty of towels and beach toys. We enjoyed the pool after spending time at the beach.
The best part for us was the location - an easy walk to Kiahuna and Poipu Beach. The kids took surfing lessons at Kiahuna. It's also close to several shopping/restaurant areas. Da Crack (take-out Mexican) and the tiny shave ice place next to it are very close. Perfect for kid/teen food!
The landscaping is beautiful and the view is spectacular. There is a seawall across the street where people gather to watch the sun set. We usually walked over to join them and say hi to the huge turtles that feed right next to the rocks.
We had a minor maintenance issue that was fixed quickly. The wifi was spotty, but it's being switched to a new provider that should be much better.
I would recommend this unit and look forward to renting it again.

This is a great location - not right on a sandy beach (it's lava rock right in front) but within walking distance of a few. The courtyard with a beautiful pool makes this small condo development perfect, it's quiet, calm, well-equipped and pointed *directly* at the sunsets. We had a fabulous time.

Great property and location. Loved our view of the ocean from the lanai. Beach chairs, beach towels and boogie boards were available in the closet for our use. Very close walk to Poipu Beach and easy drive to other nearby beaches.
Linens could probably use updating but no real issues. Pool and pool grounds are beautiful!
Would definitely rent this unit again in the future.
