Pool, SPA , huge Lanai . Pickle Ball This is a spacious (1300 square feet) ground level, three bedroom, two bathroom, ocean view condominium, in the very popular, upscale Makahuena Resort located in the center of Poipu. It's size and internal layout provides spacious comfort for as many as 8 but works perfectly well and is priced for smaller groups. You might want to invite your family or friends to share the cost as they will be comfortable too. Check our monthly rates as we encourage longer stays. View our guest comments to see why our condo is so popular. The resort complex sits on a cliff overlooking the ocean providing an unforgettable view and experience. You can view both sunrise and sunset from the site 'Point' a few steps from our lanai where the sound of the ocean and it's spray is breathtaking. The Makahuena is in the center of the Poipu golf world including being walking distance from Poipu Bay, former site of the Grand Slam of golf. The Makahuena contains it's own tennis and pickleball facility (a rare commodity in Poipu condo complexes) bringing those sports steps from our unit. Top rated sandy beaches that provide sunbathing and surfing are less than a ten minute walk to the east (Shipwreck Beach) and to the west (Brennecke's Beach). Brennecke's beach has a breakwater that provides protected beaches for toddlers and calm waters for snorkelers. IMPORTANT ITEM If you are traveling with children or people that enjoy the pool or spa, ground floor units such as ours have a huge benefit in the ease of access to these popular items. From our unit, you are step free seconds away from the pool gate to enjoy or check your kids swimming. The Makahuena is made up largely of three story buildings with no elevators, and pool access from upper units requires many steps to the opposite side of the pool then walking around the buildings. A somewhat time consuming and strenuous task. FLOOR PLAN The floor plan is all contained on one level eliminating the need to climb stairs to bedrooms or second bathrooms. Our seniors especially appreciate this convenience but everyone loves it. Additionally, the ground level location allows step free access to the impeccably maintained grounds, pool, spa, barbecue, view point, and other entertainment areas. The kitchen was completed renovated in November 2014; new granite counter tops, Solid Mahogany door and drawer fronts provide a stunning look. Elegant Tile Flooring was installed in all three bedrooms adding a very upscale look and providing a cooler (temperature) unit. A brand new Mitsubishi top of the line air conditioning system was installed in June 2022 which provides greatly increased comfort in every room even when the trade winds slow . Sleeping Accommodation There are 3 bedrooms: The Master Suite, a smaller Suite and a 3rd bedroom. The master suite is a large bedroom containing a brand new Simmons Beautyrest king bed (10/23). It has it's own bathroom which contains two large counters (his and hers) instead of the usual one. This bedroom opens directly to the lanai providing it's own ocean view and instant access to the beautiful grounds and all it's features. The second large bedroom also has a King Bed and both of these bedrooms have their own televisions. The third bedroom is smaller, but large enough to contain a brand new Beautiful Bunk Bed and an adjacent Queen Bed. If this bedroom is not needed it makes an excellent location to store luggage and golf clubs. Additionally the living room contains a brand new (10/23) top of the line Lazy Boy Queen Sleeper for added sleeping capacity. Summary of Sleeping arrangements: Bedroom 1. Primary Master Suite, King bed, with own Full Bathroom with his and her's sinks. Direct Access to Lanai, Pool , Spa and Grounds. High Definition TV Bedroom 2. Junior Suite with King Bed. Full bathroom in adjacent room. LG High Definition TV Bedroom 3 1 Queen Bed and 1 Bunk Bed Living Room New Lazy Boy Queen sleeper The unit has been recently redecorated including some new furniture and beautiful tile and paint. Three new (10/23) Lazy Boy swivel recliners adjacent to the new Queen Sleeper, are great additions for comfort and conversation and TV watching on the new 65" Samsung HD TV. In addition to streaming, A major Cable Company is included. We are very High Tech The unit has a High Speed Internet Connection with a wireless router making web contact especially convenient. A new 65" Samsung HD really Smart TV was added in the living room in May 2019. All the major streaming services are available so don't forget your passwords. Incredibly vivid picture. The Poipu Beach Area Poipu Beach is Kauai's most desirable area and was recently rated the #1 beach in all of America. You will love your stay at the Makahuena and in particular in this condominium. The unit is easily large enough for two (even 3) couples to share with adequate privacy. There are three HD televisions. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Hot tub - Pool gate ### Internet - Available in the condo: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 private bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Soap - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - HDTV with cable/satellite channels - Streaming services ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Lanai - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - No elevator - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: Parking lot only ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Luggage storage - Phone ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Things to do - Basketball nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,300 square feet ## Similar properties ![Sun loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/64420000/64411100/64411068/1458cef0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3-bdrm Oceanview Condo at Makahuena -Walk to Poipu Beaches- NEW Split A/C SYSTEM Poipu - Ocean view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen 9.6 Exceptional 61 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-16&endDate=2025-11-17&selected=64411068&PinnedHotelID=64411068&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96710000/96705300/96705237/c4348e52.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Makahuena 2102 by Destination Kauai with A/C Poipu - Ocean view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen 10 Exceptional 177 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-16&endDate=2025-11-17&selected=96705237&PinnedHotelID=96705237&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83680000/83674100/83674013/0a52cf7f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Remodeled Family-Size Condo with Fantastic View of the Ocean and Pool Poipu - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 9.8 Exceptional 47 reviews CA $559 CA $1,364 total includes taxes & fees Nov 3 - Nov 4 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-03&endDate=2025-11-04&selected=83674013&PinnedHotelID=83674013&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/32000000/31910000/31908700/31908684/972604f7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanview condo with 3 bedrooms, 3 1/2 baths and AC throughout Poipu - Ocean view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen 9.8 Exceptional 141 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-16&endDate=2025-11-17&selected=31908684&PinnedHotelID=31908684&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/22000000/21690000/21681100/21681035/3c9fe90b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bed/3 bath Poipu Condo - Central A/C, Walking path to Beach Poipu - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 9.4 Exceptional 95 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-16&endDate=2025-11-17&selected=21681035&PinnedHotelID=21681035&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24210000/24204800/24204779/f31440be.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villas at Poipu Kai 3 bed/3 bath luxury villa with central air conditioning!

I was there for a conference at the nearby Grand Hyatt (easy beautiful walk), and the rooms accomodated us wonderfully. Nearby ameneties and shops as needed, and lots of local gems to be found. Easy access to the pool for the kids was great, and a short walk to watch the sunrise in the morning with a coffee in hand was magical. Extremely responsive staff, but the property was well prepared enough that I never needed to see them in person throughout the week. Check in was seamless. If I needed another place to stay in Kauai for a meeting in the future, or just in general, I will definitely keep an eye out for this property. ##### Francisco G.

Mar 18, 2008 #### Guestbook Comment Seven of us ages 7 to 74 spent a delightful 2 weeks at this condo. The pictures really didn't do it justice as it was roomier than expected and closer to the ocean than the pictures suggested. We could easily see whales spouting from the living room and walk a few seconds to the cliff-side benches for a closer view. The condo gave us enough comfortable and attractive space to gather in the living area, or to separate into the many private areas when desired. The location gave us easy access to the beaches, restaurants, shopping etc. All in all, a perfect vacation spot. ##### A7xZpOuzZXDK8WOt0K4mtBpZuezqvUeFgf1gxcxSQQcfbJGQ0Y5Xu3/AQ3X7bPVfHftqL/NSttJVeIHvzGV/FkpUdulb/zN/voCo A. ### 8/10 Good #### Heather C. Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### First Time in Kauai We only needed a 2 night stay but would stay longer next time. When we first arrived, the condo was only steps away from the parking lot. Very convenient! The entrance was down a few stairs and the landing was very dark. It was difficult to see anything because the light was burned out but we were able to use a phone flashlight to see and the keypad worked great to get inside. Once inside the condo, it was muggy and somewhat musty but that dissapated quickly once we opened the windows and doors and turned on the many room air conditioners (Kauai is muggy in general). The location was great with the pool and hot tub only steps away and the view of the ocean from the patio was amazing! The condo was spacious with 3 bedrooms, a decent sized kitchen and living room. The sofa wasn't super comfortable to sit on but the 3 new recliners were! The beds were comfortable. The main bathroom tub didn't drain well at all but I used the plunger and solved the problem. Our short stay was great! The only thing I wish were different would be patio slider that we could unlock with a key from the outside. One of us always had to walk all the way around to go to the pool (we always locked up when we left). Overall, our time in Poipu was memorable and we would definitely come back again to stay here! ##### Heather C. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### carol m.

Beautiful view from the lanai .Not a fan of the glass tops on the tables, very sharp edges. One of the glass tops was chipped with scotch tape on it. My husband sustained a small cut from it.

Be aware, if you didn't notice, that the master bedroom is separated from living area by sliding white glass doors, so not as quiet as might be hoped.

The location exceeded our expectations with perfect viewing for sunrises, sunsets and even whale and sea turtle sightings! The kids loved playing in the pool daily and it was just a short 3 min drive to several beaches. Every single bed was very comfortable and clean. The property manager was always prompt to respond to emails and texts and was always available. We will definitely plan to return in the near future! ##### Marissa G.

Amenities were perfect, very nice place! Being on the first floor was perfect for hanging out on the grass and into the pool for the kids. Kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were very comfortable! We loved our stay! ##### Robin F. Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deb M.

Oct 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location! We have stayed at Makahuena multiple times, first time in this listing. The location within the condo complex is great for small kids. Grassy area to run around, close walk to sunset/sunrise and close proximity to the pool. The management staff was easy to work with and fast at communication. We had a larger party and did not feel cramped within the condo. Makahuena itself is a nice complex to stay in, everyone is always nice and the pool/hot tub are never overcrowded. Plus you have good access to the walking trails, 10 minute walk to the beach or short drive. The only thing we found inconvenient was that there was no place to hang out towels/suits to dry outside. Other than that no complaints, we will be back again! ##### Kaitlyn D. Stayed 11 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna H.

It was very comfortable and close to lots of fun things to do. Recommend this if you like being close to the ocean, beaches, turtles, diving or shopping. It was also a very well stocked kitchen. ##### Donna H. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian K.

Absolutely amazing location and amenities. The Pickleball courts alone made this property a game changer. Wonderful accommodations would love to go back. ##### Brian K.

The location was ideal, with stunning ocean views and easy access to the beaches and everywhere else on the island. The condo itself was clean and well-equipped, and the spacious outdoor space was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. We would highly recommend this property anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing Kauai vacation especially for a large group of people. ##### Ivan F.
