Great location with a friendly host!
The room is small, but accurately represented on the listing. The location is superb & the host was remarkably friendly. Will definitely be staying here again next time I visit Kaua'i.

Our arrival was delayed by Hawaiian Airlines, but David made accommodations that worked well for us. The apartment was clean and ready. Easy to find, it provided a great start to our week in Kauai.

Stay here! :)
Husband & I stayed here for 4 nights! Beautiful beaches & good food within walking distance! Perfect location for getting around quickly! The room was small (we knew that) but good for the 2 of us! We spent most of our time out & mainly used the room to sleep. There were ants in the room but there were ant traps & we made sure to put our food away/seal it, so no problems with that! The TV has every channel/streaming service known to man. Overall, it was a great stay for what we had planned & would stay again! David our host was excellent at communication, I appreciate that! Mahalo! :)

TV was to complicated to get Bowl Games. And we had micro ants that bit me and crawled on me. Owner needs to put ant insecticide down around the outside of the foundation of the house. He can get it at local hardware and put it heavily in the troubled areas.

A great place to stay!
We loved staying here. The location was perfect-just a short walk to the Hyatt, shipwreck beach, etc. The room is small-but sufficient for sleep. It would heat up during the day-but cool off just fine at night. The room was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. David is a wonderful host and a great guy! We would definitely stay here again!

The room was clean and decorated with taste, same went for washroom. It is best suited for couples that don't mind the minimalistic vacationing approach. It doesn't have a full kitchen but this is evident from the beginning. There is a medium sized fridge, a microwave, a drip coffee maker and a tray toaster. My wife and I were ok with the small size as we went out and about and only needed a place to sleep. We ate out most of the time. The host is fantastic, he was very responsive with communication and helpful with every request we had. His sense of humor only added to an already great experience. I would not hesitate to go back or recommend this place to my friends.

Nice location
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The location is perfect, close to shopping and dining. We walked to the beach every day, just a little ways down the walking path through the neighborhood. When booking this location I neglected to see that it only has 2 single beds. The room is very small but it had everything we needed. We were really only there to sleep so it worked out well.

Please be aware that this is not an 'entire home' yes you have a private entrance to the room (a glass slider on the side of the house), however it is just a small room with the two beds a very small bathroom in a house where the door to the main house is locked as this is where the host lives (sound travels). Since there is no A/C host suggested leaving glass sliding door open for air flow which didn't feel safe for 2 young women staying alone. Amenities DO NOT include oven as listed and there is no living space and should be more categorized as a small studio. Space was very run down and shabby. David was very quick with communication but not helpful with concerns about the booking. If you just need a place to sleep for a night this is probably fine but would not recommend if you plan to spend any time here.

Thank you!
Mr. David was an amazing host. He was very attentive and diligent to our requests. Our room was great for us (2 adults and 1 4.5 yrs old). The neighborhood was safe and walking distance to Grand Hyatt and Poipu beach. As much as we love the room, we were out all 5 days and come home passed out. We enjoyed every parts of the island and having to come home in a room just to decompress for the day was very comfortable. Mr. David was pleased we were pretty much out than staying in because the island is a beauty itself to enjoy and not to enjoy in a 4 walls. Thank You Mr. David we look forward staying with you again.

GREAT LOCATION! GREAT STAY! GREAT PRICE!
This was the perfect location for our extended (12 day) stay on the island. It’s in a great resort with lighted walking paths to 2 great beaches and is centrally located for most of the activities we wanted to do on the island. The room was very clean. It was the perfect place to have as a launching point for our hikes, beach days, and food excursions. You won’t find a better deal on Kauai! David was a joy of a host. He helped us find our bearings when we arrived, gave us some local recommendations, and made the check-in and check-out process a breeze. 5 stars!!! We hope to stay here again when we come back!

Good location and host. A little on the small side, not much space, can hear through the walls. Carpet in need of attention or elimination. Elimination would be better, an easy to clean luxury vinyl plank would be a good option. Carpets are the pits, whether in a hotel or other accommodation they just retain dirt and are unsightly. Would we stay here again? Probably not just due to cost for what it is and the fact that we were only there to sleep. I would probably opt for the cheapest room to just lay my head down at night instead. Out and about all the time, so the accommodations were really not as important to us. If you plan to spend more time at the place and stay around the area then this would be a good option for you. Definitely a good location though, easy access to a couple of beaches, decent dining in the area. Good access to the west side of the island and Waimea Canyon Rd. It rained pretty much the entire time we were there so we made the best of it. A few upgrades would make this a much nicer place. One last note if the owner is seeing this review. The lighting at street entrance should be better placed or offset. It is blinding when you are trying to back out of the drive in the dark. The owner had a recent tragic loss so I am giving him the benefit of the doubt and wish him all the best. Thank you and Prayers.

This is the perfect place to stay in South Kauai. It’s a single room with a separate shower/restroom. It was perfect for us because we were on the go everyday of our 5 day stay. David was very accommodating and gracious host. You are only a 10 minute walk to Poipu and Shipwreck beaches. We loved staying here it was very quiet and safe.

Host met us when we arrived. Very Cordial and welcoming. The room is a spare bedroom that has been renovated very nicely. Outside entrance. Close to the beach walking or driving. Two twin beds with fridge, microwave, toaster oven, and beach chairs. No a/c but we never needed it. You might have to use the extra blankets at night. Very knowledgeable about all local establishments. We never asked about beach towels or coolers to use for the beach. All in all it was a good stay for the price.

It was our first time staying in po’ipu and this sweet space met all our needs and beyond. Very clean, close to everything one would want to experience in this region. The hospitality was top notch. My husband, who has difficulty with sleep due to back pain remarked on how surprised he was by how well he slept here. We would definitely stay again. It is true, it is a small space, but the way things were organized in the space I never felt cramped.
