Direct Ocean Front - Renovation Complete - EVERYTHING inside is NEW!

Welcome to "Poipu Palms #103". We just finished the process of completing an "extreme" renovation on this condo. This was not just a "redecorating", but a complete tear down and rebuild.

Everything inside this unit is now BRAND NEW! New walls, New floors, New kitchen, New appliances, New Bathrooms, New beds, new furniture, new paint, etc.

The location of this quaint little resort has always been one of the best on the island, but now that everything inside is new, this condo is one of the premier vacation rental properties on the island. Imagine watching a whale breach, or dolphins play right in front of you as you relax and sip a cocktail on the lanai of your very own ocean front condo in sunny Poipu on the south shore of Kauai,. This delightful island home is located in the Poipu Palms Resort, which is a quiet condominium complex with only 12 units and located directly on the ocean front.

If you've previously experienced a stay at one of the large resorts (with their large crowds), you will find this condo to be a very refreshing change of pace. The dramatic views from the condo are just amazing, and we also have an ocean front pool where you can relax and also take in the gorgeous views of the ocean. The location couldn't be better... halfway between (and within a walkable distance to) both of Poipu's main beaches (Shipwreck Beach and Poipu Beach). Also just a stone's throw to restaurants, shopping and the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

If you wish to experience living on the ocean while visiting Kauai, there simply is no better spot.

wonderful stay

Great setting, right up from the ocean, 9 minute walk to Brennecke's Beach. Condo is fairly new and very comfortable. Sitting on the lanai eating breakfast or coffee with the view was awesome. The only downside was you could hear people outside and feel people walking in the condo above.

Comfortable condo and great location.

The property was clean, and the condo had everything we needed for a 10 day stay. The kitchen was equipped with all the dishes and utensils needed for eating in. The furniture and the beds were comfortable. The deck, bbq, and pool were great, and had a beautiful view of the ocean.Chad, our VRBO host did a great job of taking care of our needs and the cleaning crew did a great job of getting the condo ready for us.

Delightful condo

This condo offered a delightful jumping off point for visiting the southern coast of Kauai. The space was clean and comfortable. The appliances and finishes were all new and very nice. The lanai is lovely and the pool is mere steps away. Chad, the owner, was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Hard to leave!

Beautifully remodeled place, incredible views of whales and dolphins! Comfy beds, great bathrooms, kitchen with everything you need. Space is tight in the king bedroom and the queen bedroom just has shutter doors to separate it from the living room. It worked great for the 2 of us, but might feel crowded for 2 couples. Beaches very close by, chairs, umbrella and cooler were provided. We loved this place and didn’t want to leave!!!

We stayed here with our 21 year old son. Condo was clean, and the layout was perfect. The lanai had an amazing view and plenty of privacy. We listened to the waves crashing all night. The condo location was perfect for our active lifestyle - great walks in either direction with plenty of wildlife swimming and resting on the beach. So many turtles! I have never had a harder time leaving a rental!

Amazing Condo in Poipu

This is a great condo with an amazing view. You can fall asleep to the crashing waves and wake up to coffee on the porch and watch the turtles play in the waves right from the deck. A huge bonus the condo had beach chairs, an umbrella, boogie board, and a cooler. Communication with Chad was very easy and he was very kind in our dealings. You could walk to Poipu and Shipwreck beach. This place is highly recommended by our family. Cheers.

Beautiful View/Wonderful breezes!

We walked in the condo and my husband said it’s a little stuffy.. Boy was he surprised to realized once the windows were open the breeze was magnificent no air conditioning needed! I can’t say anything bad about our stay in Kauai. The views were great! Turtles, dolphin and we saw whales almost every day. Sitting on the lanai watching the beautiful blue water and waves breaking to lull you to sleep at night. What more can you ask for? Excellent choice to spend 10 days in the tropical paradise of Kauai. The condo was immaculate and all the other reasons I mentioned made this vacation superior over all the others.

What a View

If you want to wake and go to sleep to views and the sound of the waves this is the best. Woke up every morning to coffee on the lanai, saw turtles and some dolphins. The unite was recently updated and had everything we needed. The kitechen was well equipped and the unit has all the beach stuff you might want. Be aware that the door to the bedroom in the front of the unit has doors but the are louvered, so no sound privacy. Not a problem for us.

Whale Watching With Coffee

We picked this exclusive location due to the lovely two master suites which worked perfectly for two couples. The lanai with the ocean view offered a serene coffee spot for whale watching while enjoying the sounds of birds and ocean waves. The condo was thoughtfully stocked with amenities for cooking or traveling to the local beach. The beds were extremely comfortable and modern. The beach and a few local restaurants are a short walk from the condo. Puka Dog is a great local restaurant to grab a hotdog, Hawaiian ice or deli sandwich. We are already considering a return trip. The condo is definitely recommended for families that require two bedrooms. Clean, well-maintained and well-stocked! Property manager, Chad is attentive to emails, texts and calls. We did not have any problems that required assistance this trip.

Majestic

Aloha, My first reaction when I walked toward the patio door was how the ocean looked so majestic! We loved sitting on the lanai first thing in the morning and as soon as we returned from our day of adventure. The condo was well equipped and well kept. The pictures online accurately depict the condo and having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms was great. When staying here the birds will wake with the rising sun, the sea turtles will amaze you as they swim and feed below, and watching the kayakers maneuver the sea will amaze you. I even saw a snorkeled make his/her way past the condo complex! We had some rain several days in the morning and where there is rain and sun there will be a rainbow. Seeing the rainbow begin and end over the ocean was remarkable! If you are looking for a great location and a well kept home this is the place for you! Mahalo Donna and Ron

Incredible ocean views!

We had an excellent stay here. The three biggest perks of the condo are: 1) a great Lanai that overlooks an expansive ocean view consistent with the pictures in the listing; 2) location halfway between Poipu Beach and the Grand Hyatt’s restaurants and amenities; and 3) Poipu Palms is a small property with only 12 units meaning there aren’t a lot of people out in the pool and lounge area between the unit and the ocean which is nice. We spent glorious mornings on the Lanai having coffee and breakfast and watching for whales. Several spectacular evening sunsets out there as well. The condo is well stocked with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. Shower was great. Beach chairs and supplies at the condo as well which was great. I mentioned the location, and Poipu Beach is probably a 10-15 minute walk down the road in one direction. Great beach where sea turtles seen resting on the beach each day, and Hawaiian monk seal on beach once as well. Going the other direction from the condo, there is a nice trail along the coast that leads to the Grand Hyatt, which is a great spot to go for a nice dinner, massage/spa, or Luau. The condo was great, the VRBO pictures represent what it looks like well, and it was a relaxing base for our Kauai trip.

Exceptional 2 bedroom Ocean Front Poipu

We stayed at this VRBO for 10 days in November. The property was well maintained and tidy with excellent renovations. The 2 identical ensuite bathrooms had large rain style shower heads with hand wands in tiled walk in showers. They had their own fans and lights in each. Each bedroom was well appointed and beds and pillows were comfortable. There were ceiling fans with incorporated lights on remotes in each room including dining and living areas. Unfortunately, the neighbours were controlling our lights and vice versa. Chad was responsive and is working on rectifying this issue. The fans were welcome to keep the air moving. We used the beautiful, well stocked kitchen with new appliances often. Furniture was comfortable inside and on the large lanai. The unit was well stocked for the beach, which we added noodles to. We have suggested to Chad the owners may consider binoculars in the unit as there is an abundance of Honu's. We enjoyed them right from the pool deck, especially with morning Kauai Coffee! Unfortunately we did not get lucky enough to see whales this trip. The pool, deck and dining terrace were all taken care of daily and were clean and organized. No propane grill, but built in charcoal grill was well equipped. We used the property daily while enjoying the ocean view, sounds and amazing sunsets. Pool temperature was comfortable enough for these Canadians to cool off. We enjoyed conversing with some other owners we met in the pool also. Mahalo and we will return!

We love it when a place matches the pictures and descriptions online. This place exceeds the pics! The Lanai is the highlight for sure. Such a beautiful view. Breeze through the palm trees, waves crashing on the shoreline. Birds lightly chirping. Awesome spot to start the day and finish each day.
