Great location, close to beach! Unit was as described and had plenty of starter supplies. We spent early mornings and evenings on the lanai enjoying the gorgeous view. Quiet area, beautiful landscaping and had the pool to ourselves when the beach was crowded. Experienced a safety issue in the parking lot, onsite mgr addressed immediately. We would definitely stay again.

Just lovely! Perfect location, excellent home kitted out with all the essentials. My kids loved the spray toys for the pool. The views were just killer and we could walk to two beaches in minutes. Watching the turtles at night was so cool.

The property was clean, comfortable, well-stocked and we could see the ocean from the main lanai. The only note: we had one traveler with some mobility issues, and the stairs to the condo, and within the condo was a challenge. And the two bathrooms were on the floor with the two bedrooms, so a lot more stairs. The property host was very responsive and I would give it two big thumbs up. Near Poipu Beach - great parking and easy access. I'd go back.

The location of the property is ideal with amazing nightly sunsets. The beach is probably 1/4 mile and easily walkable but we drove due to all the gear we brought each day. Wonderful morning walks in any direction. Would recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful break from reality.

Two 65 yr-old grandparents, a 30-something year-old daughter, a 3 1/2 yr old grandson, and 9 mo-old grandaughter. Recipe for disaster? NO! This condo made all the difference. The unit was in the far back of Nihi Kai, with an elevated view of the grounds and a tight view of the breakers on Poipu Beach. Very quiet, and grounds were beautiful. We walked daily from the unit to Poipu beach (and passed Brennecke's Beach along the way) with the grandkids in a stroller. Did have to spend some of the walk on a local road, but traffic was sparse and most drivers were respectful of pedestrians. The unit has a large main floor (stairs to access) with two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms downstairs. Ductless air conditioning heads on main floor and in both bedrooms worked well. No bathtub for small children, so be ready to improvise. Owner (Steve) was very responsive and great to work with. If we return to Kauai, we would certainly consider staying here again.

We walked to the beach every single day, multiple times per day. The condo is clean and the beds comfortable. The view is a little far off, and you can't hear the water, but we had rainbows every day! One day we got stuck in a rainstorm and had to turn back to the condo so we went swimming in the pool for a little bit until the rain passed. The pool was warm and clean. We liked this condo and grounds were pretty. The air conditioning worked well.

We loved our stay at Nihi Kai. The condo layout was amazing for us and our 14 month old daughter. The fact we only shared one wall with another unit made it a lot less stressful for us when she started crying in the middle of the night. The condo had a fabulous view of the ocean. The owner was very responsive to all communications. We had a phenomenal time and plan on coming back.

We had a great stay here! The location is fantastic…5 min walk to the beach, a couple of restaurants and where sea turtles come in to sleep. We really appreciated the beach chairs, cooler and umbrellas that were available. Everything was clean, and details were well-thought out. Very comfortable and pleasant stay. We would love to stay here again!

We had a wonderful time in Kauai. The condo interior was spacious and very comfortable. The condo was located in a beautiful community right across the street from the ocean and a short walk from the beach. We enjoyed seeing the sea turtles on the beach every night. Snorkeling at the beach was great.

Our stay was exactly what we were hoping for. Great location, walking distance to a beach, and a nice casual restaurant.
The condo is very spacious and we felt like we had plenty of room without being on top of one another.

Second visit to this property. It is spacious, clean, has all the amenities, and is a short walk to a great beach, Poipu Beach. The owner is extremely accommodating, with excellent communication, responds quickly to messages, and provides many helpful what to see and do suggestions. Check in information is clear and complete. The place to stay at Poipu Beach..

Everything was great. All the amenities you would need are there. Beach chairs, towels, boogies boards. Very centrally located to Poipu beach. Walk to end of property everyday and watch the sunset. The front door lock is a little funky may need too be replaced. Would come back for sure. The property is beautiful too.

Great location! Great Condo! Close to the beach with snorkeling available to do! The view was amazing to wake up to every morning and the condo provided just about everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay (other than food:) Would definitely love to stay there again!

The property location was perfect and made it easy to get to all the beaches we enjoy visiting.
The condo was comfortable and we enjoyed sitting on the Lanai in the morning and looking out to the ocean.
We discovered a few new things even though this was our 3rd trip to the island. There is a cave not too far from the condo with a few tortoise near CJW Stables. It's also very easy to rent beach equipment (extra umbrella and boogie boards) nearby.
The owner, Steve P. was easy to communicate with during our trip and was very gracious in allowing us a later checkout.

This was a great place. It was clean and the location was convenient to everything. The view from this property was stunning. There are a lot of sea turtles at Brenneckes Beach and the snorkeling was best here also. Everything to have a fun day at the beach was a short walk from this condo. The condo offered beach chairs, water shoes, snorkel stuff, boogie boards and sand toys for us to use. We did rent our own snorkel gear at the surf shop though. We fell in love with the shaved ice from Brenneckes Deli and enjoyed adult beverages from the bar while overlooking the beach. All walking distance to the condo. We would definitely rent here again.

Coming from Colorado, the heat and humidity were oppressive and we would have appreciated air conditioning. - the many fans didn't cut it for us. That said, we had a great time while we were there and the condo was equipped very well.

Property was clean, updated and had all the amenities we need. Just a short walk to shops and beaches. We cooked in and the condo had all the things we needed to make excellent home meals. Beds were comfortable and the view from the Lanai was amazing. Could see the ocean and see all those gorgeous stars at night. Would definitely book this condo again. Mahalo!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. The unit was very clean and had all of the advertised amenities. I had a little difficulty getting the TV and Internet service operational, by the owner was very responsive, so got the bugs worked out quickly. Great view of Kauai sunsets from the front deck area. Very convenient to Poipu beaches and eateries.

My family and I fully enjoyed our stay here. The condo is central to all the restaurants, shopping, and an easy drive to many adventure trips! It is very easy to access the condo since the parking was right in front and the pool and beach is very close. The place is decorated in modern tropical fashion along with touching personal touches by the owner and it has all the amenities we can ask for including a washer/dryer which allowed us to pack less for our vacation. The owners are extremely caring and very easy to work with to book the condo. We were blessed to have stayed at their condo!

This was my home away from home in the Poipu area for nine days in February and it is pure paradise! From booking to check-in to departure, everything was handled quickly and professionally, all with the Aloha spirit.
Upon arrival, we had a little trouble locating the proper building, but a friendly gentlemen guided us in the right direction. We had just a few stairs to enter the condo, which was no problem unless you really overpack! But you don't need to here with a washer and dryer available.
You enter into the open kitchen and living area where the stunning views from the lanai grab your attention. What a great space for morning coffee or an evening drink. We could see whales off in the distance nearly every day.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are downstairs, along with the stackable washer and dryer.
This condo was very well stocked with all the amenities you would need and then some. Water toys, laundry soap, toilet paper, bath soap, hair dryer, kitchen utensils, dishes, glassware and pots and pans, even a welcome basket of fruits and other treats was waiting to welcome us.
The location is great. It is a short walk to the beach. The rest of the island is easy to explore from here as well. We covered the entire island during our stay but always enjoy coming "home" to our condo at the end of the day to relax. We enjoyed using the community gas grill practically just outside the condo door, too.
I cannot say enough about how much I enjoyed our stay and how accommodating the owner was. I know this is not always possible, but due to our late flight and there being no one else coming in immediately, we were able to stay a little later in the afternoon so we could relax before heading to the airport for the long flight back to the mainland.
I tend to be pretty fussy when it comes to accommodations, but this place met all my requirements. If I ever am back in Kauai, I would definitely stay here again.

My family of five (two adults and three children aged five to ten) thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Parking was just steps away and the condo was quite spacious. It was nice having two levels of living space and not feeling cramped. We found the premises to be clean and well stocked with just about everything a family would need to have an enjoyable stay. Thank you for the nice gift of Hawaiian fruit and goodies to welcome us on our first night there. We enjoyed eating on the lanai and taking in the gorgeous ocean view!
The walk to Brennecke Beach and Poipu Beach was only minutes away. Poipu Beach offered our children a very safe place to boogie board, snorkel and to just play in the water. A big bonus was seeing the odd Hawaiian Monk Seal beaching itself on the sand for some rest - very cool!
We highly recommend this unit and the owner's dedication to making it a clean, safe and home away from home for the rental guests. Thank you very much Steve and we look forward to staying again!

Great place! Clean, comfortable, well decorated condo with updated kitchen. Ocean view from the lanai is great for any meal or just chillin'. Easy walk to all of Poipu's beaches, and good rental equipment is available from the kind folks at Kimo's Beach Stuff nearby. Booking was a breeze- no hidden fees or hassle! Our family of four will be definitely be back! Thanks, Steve!!

We stayed at you beautiful condo Dec. 30th to Jan 9th 2013. The view of the ocean was awesome, we'd sit on the lanai every morning and watch the waves and the palm trees sway! It was quite close to everything in Poipu and only a two minute walk to the beach. The pool was very nice and especially close to the beach, you could jump in on your way back up to the condo. Had everything you need, though could have used a second beach chair and boogie board, but we were able to rent at Snorkel Bob's. Parking at the door was very convenient. Didn't really need air conditioning if you turned the fans on and open windows for the breeze. Would definitely return again.
