Poipu Crater is our slice of paradise AND it's literally located inside of an extinct volcanic crater. Nestled into the hillside, this condo is shaded from the afternoon sun keeping it comfortable and cool.

This is our home away from home. We live on the west side of Kauai and Poipu Crater is our escape from our normal work life. When we are not enjoying the peace and quiet of this resort, we enjoy sharing our slice of paradise with those who want to enjoy Kauai too - vacationers like you!

Poipu Crater is the perfect home for your ohana and is walking distance to Poipu's finest beaches. Our home is steps from the pool, tennis courts, putting green, ping pong and BBQ's and is also surrounded by lush gardens and shaded walking paths. Here you will enjoy peace and quiet and when leaving the resort you'll then be immersed in all that Poipu has to offer.

Poipu Crater is a half-hour drive from the airport to our tropical oasis, where you can use our complimentary parking. The condo's spacious living room has plenty of comfortable seating, a flat-screen Smart TV and a private lanai with lush garden views. The fully stocked kitchen opens into the dining/bar area and lanai. Ceiling fans are located throughout the condo for extra comfort along with A/C in each bedroom.

For extra privacy, the master bedroom and master bath take up the entire second floor. We offer a Tempur-Pedic king bed, A/C, a digital alarm clock with wireless charging and a flat-screen Smart TV for your enjoyment.

Downstairs, the guest bedroom has a queen bed, A/C and a digital alarm clock with wireless charging and it shares the home's guest bathroom.

Our home has modern amenities to make your stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. We also supply beach chairs, a beach umbrella, beach/pool towels, cooler, a portable wireless Bluetooth speaker and sand toys for the keiki (kids). We do not supply: Snorkel gear, boogie boards or surfboards.

If you’re looking for a laid back stay "Hawaiian Style," we have you covered. Enjoy the beach, a swim in the pool, practice your putting on the mini-putting green, play a few rounds of tennis or ping pong, and enjoy a cold beverage on your lanai – everything you need to work out, cool off or wind down.

My husband and I spent the last four nights of our Hawaiian vacation here and it was the perfect way to end our travel adventure. The condo is conveniently located close to all that Poipu Beach and Kauai’s South Shore has to offer. The hosts were easy to communicate with and the condo was very clean and well-appointed. Pride of ownership is evident and we felt relaxed and “at home” from the moment we walked in. The complex is located on lush grounds and we spent time enjoying the lanai. We have already booked our next stay here—can’t wait to come back!

We have spent a lot of time in various VRBO rentals in Hawaii. This was hands down the most well stocked unit we have ever been in. It had everything we needed for our visit. It was set up great for our family, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Relatively quiet (the variety of bird songs aside) unit which is well appointed, well maintained with the perfect amount of space for our couple, and amazingly only 50 feet from pool and tennis. We could use either at any time- felt like our own private luxury estate, albeit semi wild with the abundant vegetation throughout the crater. Six weeks passed too quickly.

Wow! This was the best Christmas. From the minute we walked in we felt like we were home. Everything was wonderful, from the layout of the condo to the helpful organized vacation binder with recommendations, to the fully stocked kitchen and beach bags. It was more than we could have asked for... and all we wanted was more time on the island! We will be back at the Pineapple Crater. Mahalo, Bruce & Micah!

The most thorough communication, detailed instructions, information on the area and things to do, and truly a home away from home, but in the heart of paradise. We had everything we needed and more to make breakfast and even cook some steaks for dinner. Well stocked and clean. Perfect location just minutes from Poipu Beach. Will definitely consider this BnB when coming back to Kauai.

Big area, very quiet, close walk to the beach, loved that we could BBQ, nice pool, kitchen well stocked and beach gear including a cooler was great! The unit was very quiet and secluded. We would definitely recommend this unit to others.

We loved being in Poipu and this place was a great location, spacious, and comfortable It was a short 3 -5 minute drive to our favorite beach to swim and watch turtles. The owners are great to communicate with. We had problems with the AC and they instantly responded and did their best to quickly fix the situation.

We absolutely love this place! It was super clean, and we had everything we need and more in a very equipped kitchen. We also loved the location, and the neighbors were very friendly. For my first time in Hawaii I had an fantastic vacation.

We had an amazing time at Pineapple Poipu, it felt like a home away from home, but better. The hosts were very prompt and helpful with communications, and the location was really convenient. You won't regret booking this condo for you Kauai holiday.

It was perfect for us. Comfortable house, walk to the beach, pool only steps away and a/c in both bedrooms. I highly recommend.

Our family of two parents and two college boys stayed for four days before heading up north. The surroundings were beautiful and the condo was really well stocked with new dishes, silverware and kitchen utensils as well as beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, umbrella and some sand toys and snorkeling gear for kids. There were detailed instructions and a great binder filled with helpful info about the island. There is also a local person to help with any issues that come up. I would absolutely stay here again! Highly recommended!

Pineapple paradise was absolutely beautiful. Very clean and well taken care of. Very tropical feel location with beautiful plants near by.. The location was perfect. Ocean was near by, shops and restaurants but it was private enough that you didn't feel like it was too touristy. The only negative thing about the condo is you could hear everything your neighbor was doing and vice versa even when they were being very quiet. The walls are very thin so you can hear their tv, shower, talking ect. I'd still give this place a 10 out of 10 and would come here again! So clean and beautiful.

Absolutely wonderful in every way. Nestled in the heart of Poipu Crater, spotless and easy to live in. Very charming with thoughtful touches like a well equipped kitchen including food storage containers. Quick trip to the beach and a great location on the island. Easily the best VRBO we’ve ever had and we are already planning our next trip back to this lovely haven. A definite home away from home!

The property was just as advertised. A great spot to get away from it all. The condo was very well equipped and felt like a home away from home. The location of the condo within the development gave you great privacy - you felt like you were the only ones there. We would absolutely stay there again

Everything was great about our stay. Our boys (9 & 7) loved all the extras this property provided them and we loved having a place to relax each night after our daily adventures.

Cozy condo in secluded poipu crater was just what we needed for a much needed holiday. Home was clean, comfortable and surroundings were beautiful. Host was easy to reach and quick to respond to any issues we had. Would definitely come back again!

We found the Pineapple Paradise to be exactly as described in the listing description. It's in an awesome location (both because it's nestled in a volcanic crater and it's so close to beaches, walks, shops, etc.). The unit was perfect for our family with two teenagers and very clean and comfortable. In short: it felt like being at home away from home. Micah was extremely kind and helpful, and prepared a ton of useful information for our trip. Highly recommend and thank you to Micah and Bruce for sharing with us!

Bruce and mycah were phenomenal hosts. Their house was beautifully decorated and thoughtfully provisioned with everything you could possibly need. Nice and quiet but still close to Poipu and all of it’s attractions. We had a fantastic stay and would rent it again in heartbeat!

Excellent communication with host. Micah was so kind and helpful. She provided so many suggestions and tips. The place was so cute and cozy. We loved eating out on the lanai. Great location. We loved our vacation and can’t wait to come back!

We are in love with this condo! It is private and quiet, surrounded by plumeria and palms. We spent most of our time in the morning and evening relaxing on the lanai listening to the birds (and of course the roosters). The kitchen is well equipped for cooking in, which we did most nights after spending our days at the beach. The condo is about a half mile (walking distance) from two great beaches. We would hop in the pool after our walk back in the afternoon and there was rarely anyone there. The only negative is that you must BBQ at the pool. But really, that was no big deal considering all of the many pluses! We have already reserved our stay for next year.

I would call this a beautiful 5 star property. Clean and well equipped with everything you need for a great vacation stay. Owners were great and easy to work with. I will stay here on our next trip to Poipu. Mahalo, Dave

I would stay at this property again in a heartbeat. Clean, has all the needed amenities, owners were great at keeping in touch and our favorite part was the gorgeous and peaceful lanai that was surrounded by beautiful plants, flowers and native birds. We spent many many hours out there. So calm and peaceful.

Pineapple Paradise was a superb place to stay and the hosts couldn't be more accommodating. The attention to detail inside this bright, spacious, comfortable, and private space was unparalleled and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We highly recommend staying here and enjoying it as much as we did!
