Clean, accommodating, cozy, captivating view. Kitchen was well supplied for cooking just about anything. Lanai as a tad overcrowded other outdoor furniture, took some rearranging for comfort, but not a big deal. Wonderful stay oils use again!

We mostly enjoyed our stay at your condo. It was very clean and decorated nicely. The condo was stocked with enough things to save you some money not having to buy spices and such.There were some things we didn’t particularly care for, one being when we sit on the patio just 10 feet away there are neighbors on their patio, staring at us. So that’s not private enough for what we prefer. I would never stay in Kauai again without having an air conditioner. Even though the Reviews say that the tradewinds cool it off. They certainly don’t cool it off enough. We are from Arizona and love the heat, but this was more than we could handle. Luckily there were several fans so we had them all going. Two of the four days we were there was miserably hot inside. We were expecting to just look out off of our patio and see the ocean instead we saw the parking lot, beyond the parking lot is the ocean, but you can’t see it without looking at the parking lot. We love the location and will return to a condo with a better view and an air conditioner.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is located above the ocean where you could hear the waves crashing against the shore. The view is amazing!!
It was a short drive to a lovely beach. There were great beach chairs and towels. All of the dishes, pots and pans needed were there.
Oddly, There was no shade on the window in the front door, so anyone walking by could look right in. We taped paper towels over this window for privacy and safety.
The living room sofa and couch needed to be refreshed…I bought some fabreeze which helped.
With a couple of changes, I would return to this property.
Overall, we enjoyed ourselves. .

We couldn't be happier with our time in this unit. It was well-stocked, had beautiful views and convenient location near Poipu Beach, and great amenities, including parking, washer/dryer, and beach towels and chairs.

Such a beautiful condo! We loved falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and sitting on the lanai in the morning watching sea turtles in the ocean, and the sunset in the evening.
Denise was very kind and responsive. She also thought of everything for the condo and I love how nicely it is decorated. Clearly a lot of thought and love has gone into this place! I'm missing it already!

I have been here - Sunset Kahili - many times with my dear wife... who passed last year. In her memory, my cousin is my travel companion to help me let go. I also wanted this trip to be filled with memories shared with her on her first visit here.Condo just fine. However the lift arm in the master toilet must be replaced by a new sturdy one. (We had to lift the tank lid and manually pull up the flapper valve each time we needed to flush that toilet.)Short time - great memories.

Great location! Can’t beat the view from lanai! Unit is comfortable, but unfortunately overdue for an upgrade. Popcorn ceiling texture is peeling - hope it’s not asbestos. Kitchen spoons, forks, etc are like tin. Corkscrew doesn’t work. Someone’s bathing suit was left hanging on bathroom door. Shower control needs work. A suitcase rack would be handy.

Well located, easy access, on-site parking (but very narrow parking spaces, best for smaller cars). Nicely decorated, very clean. Many beach accessories available in condo - nice not to have to buy for temporary use.

Great time in Kauai, the condo was as described and within walking distances of the listed beaches. The no AC wasn't a surprise but it was a surprise to us how much we were uncomfortable. A fun feature was being able to see the ocean from the shower if you leave the bathroom door open. The place was well stocked. Everything we needed. Highly recommend looking up the hiking path to the Secret Beach. It's an hour's drive north but really worth it. Also make your reservation in advance for a sunset dinner at the Beach House. We also enjoyed the luau at the Sheraton.

This lovely one bedroom condo on the top floor of the building was ideal for my wife and I. The ocean views are spectacular and the location was absolutely ideal! Although the unit is not air-conditioned, the ocean breezes (and overhead fans) were quite welcome! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We were very pleased with our stay at the lovely and peaceful Mele Moana. The kitchen had everything you could want to prepare meals and we especially appreciated the availability of beach towels, chairs and umbrellas. The location is within walking distance of the beautiful Poipu Beach where we saw sea turtles and seals. We would defiantly stay there again.

The condo is in a beautiful spot overlooking the ocean. We loved spending time on the balcony in the mornings. Plenty of relaxing space for the two of us with a great kitchen to cook the few meals that we made onsite. Location is awesome for getting to beaches and other desirable spots by car. It’s walkable to beaches but I wouldn’t recommend carrying chairs etc that far.
Great stay, very happy!

We love staying at Sunset! The location is perfect for us! Ocean breezes, beautiful views and we love to walk to Poipu beach every morning to see the turtles and Seals. The sunsets from the lanai are breathtaking! We were not sure if the room temperature would be an issue without A/C, but between the ocean breeze and the fans, the room stays very pleasant. (But we don't spend a ton of time in the room, with so much to do on Kauai!) This is our 4th stay at Sunset Kahii and we will be back!

Literally a home away from home. Everything provided, perfect apartment and very nice view of the ocean and beautiful sunsets.My wife and I have been to Poipu 4 times, first time in Sunset Kahili, a very good experience.The entire complex is well maintained and clean. We had one neighbor doing some tile work for a few days, but nothing that would ruin our days.The entire complex is very sensitive to noise, so you have to talk quietly. A normal conversation or tv sound can be heard all over. We had a day with loud neighbors but it was taken care of by the complex manager immediately.All in all, a very nice week.

Sunny South Shore! 5th Floor, full ocean view! Close to Poipu Beach. Six-minute drive to the Kukui’ula shops and eight minutes to Sueoka Market and Old Koloa Town. Easy day trips to Waimea Canyon and Hanalei Bay.Older building, but the unit’s kitchen, bathroom and flooring have all been nicely updated. It’s clean, well equipped and quiet. The pool appears to be well maintained. The designated parking space and elevator were a plus. Shout out to Kauai Vacation Rentals management for providing great service.

Our vacation rental was in a great location! The rental is not as portrayed in the pictures. The furniture is worn and dated. The orange chairs felt sticky and and had a slight distasteful odor. The cushions on the lanai were falling apart. All of the windows and louvers were moldy and dirty.The kitchen was clean and well stocked but the dishwasher smelled old. The refrigerator was clean. Overall for the price, I would rate it a three.

The pics do not do justice for this beautiful space! I was expecting half the size. It has all the elements needed for a perfect vacation! The fan over the king size bed made for perfect sleeping! The lanai was perfect for wave watching near and far. I even saw whale spouts one afternoon. Restaurants and swimming beach just down the hill. Koloa village has the best juice bar. Recently switched to plant based eating and it had the best salads/meals in jars!! The pool at Sunset Kahili is perfect! I really think this is the most perfect spot to either stay all day or to use as base camp. We will definitely be back!!

Great, quiet location in Poipu. Easy parking & access. Excellent service from Lucy & all! Office conveniently located. Spacious and comfortable layout for 2 couples. No privacy in the master bedroom (door). 2nd bedroom need a/c. No circulation. Also junky closet with all the beach gear. Showers are in bad shape. Needs deep cleaning in kitchen & bathrooms.

The location is great. Spectacular view up the coast and of sunsets. Saw turtles almost every time we took the short walk to Brennecke’s Beach Broiler (recommended). Condo is a little dated but get over that quickly and feel like you live in Kauai. Spent the second half of our trip at the Grand Hyatt but honestly preferred Sunset Kahili.

Property manager sent arrival instructions to junk mailbox, so we expecting an on-site manager to give us key. We were lucky to speak to someone who helped resend the key code. However had we arrived an hour later than we did, we would have been sleeping in the car. Other phone calls and emails about departure were unanswered. The view from balcony at sunset is wonderful.

This property is super cute. Nicely decorated and a lovely view. The front door was missing a privacy blind so we had to hang a towel over it so no one could see in. The only negative is that this unit is in a very old building and the common areas are somewhat dingy looking compared to the standard of the unit

Nice place, great location, stairs and elevator. If you like a “super soft” bed you’ll love the master bed. Way too soft for me but my wife liked it. The pillows were all too thick for me as well but I made it work and enjoyed the stay. Great view of the ocean and we saw whales on our last morning. One of the ceiling fans didn’t work and there were small bugs on the counter in the mornings. Even after they came unannounced to spray for bugs. All and all it worked out and we would stay there again.
