We loved our time at Poipu Kai. Our one-bedroom condo unit was immaculate and equipped with everything we needed and then some! A well-equipped kitchen, large bedroom with plenty of closet room and dressers, a roomy bathroom and a well furnished living room/dining room. And then there was beach towels, beach chairs, snorkel masks, beach reading and even a guidebook that helped us explore. The office staff was friendly and the grounds were always being "buffed up". The pool overlooks the beach (for those of you that don't love sand!) and never had more than 5 people there. Great location to walk to the beach, 2 great casual restaurants or over to the Grand Hyatt. I can't recommend this spot enough and we are already planning our next trip.

We had a one bedroom booked for a 4 day stay. When we arrived we were told a one bedroom wasn't available and they gave us a 3 bedroom unit. (Unit 420) As it was just the two of us the larger unit wasn't a concern. The photos you see on the web site are not what you get. As this is a VRBO managed by Aston; the rooms will vary widely. The poor quality is a result of the property management not enforcing room standards that are made available for rental. There is no air-conditioning and it is far from the beach. What was a concern was the quality of the refrigerator which was rusting and bubbling paint. (See photo) The unit is not air-conditioned and was hot. The bathroom shower cleanliness wasn't very good. Overall this was condo complex built in the 80s and it really shows. The bed mattresses were the soft squeaky kind you get in a cheap sleazy motel. They let kids with diapers swim in the pool so there were feces in the pool. Disgusting. The customer service in the office was just appalling. Not to mention they charge a $150 US cleaning fee upon checkout. This vacation condo rental is not recommended at all.

We had a nice stay in the Poipu Sands section unit #233. It was a top floor unit with a nice balcony, a sufficient number of fans and a portable A/C. Good amount of space for our group of five. There was a parking lot being constructed in the adjacent resort which was very noisy with lots of loud beeping trucks and machinery the week we were there. However, I assume that’s atypical and in general this lodging was a good choice for us.

This was our first stay at this property, so only have experience with one unit. We stayed for 6 days at one of the 2 bedroom vacation homes managed by Aston at Poipu Kai. The home was perfectly clean and stocked with a pretty complete kitchen which made making some local fish dinners a breeze. There was a beautiful side garden for coffee in the morning, and we didn't have any mosquito trouble. It's a brief walk to great local beaches like Shipwreck, Brenneckie's, and Poipu. The walk to Brenneckie's and Poipu is even a pedestrian greenway that avoids road traffic. It's also relatively close to one of the main roads around the island (5-10 minute drive), so it's convenient for leaving the Poipu area and exploring the western part of Kauai as well. Checking in was easy and the staff very friendly. We didn't have a lot of interaction with staff, it's a pretty independent style of place to stay.

First of all every apartment is different. We had 411 and that was a really nice apartment, close to one of the pools with a hot tub. There is no AC in apartment 411. Alot of barbecue grills in the area. They have a expensive cleaning fee that's not included in the price.
