The information I received on a regular base in advance from the host/manager was very helpful and useful. Never had so much info in advance elsewhere.We felt very welcome, we celebrated my husband’s retirement and received a super generous gift basket.The house is cosy and we had everything we needed. The view and the quiet, peaceful environment were very special. One can only hear the birds singing.Very short to Poipu beach, where you can spot turtles resting on the beach.A place to come back…. ##### Vicky V. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin P. May 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely Stay in Poipu Oh, apparently Poipu has an actual Crater and these properties are settled inside of it! Interesting setup with upstairs and downstairs rooms worked perfectly for my wife and mother-in-law, plus the short walks to the ocean made for lovely morning strolls and access to the beach. The code I was provided to access the front door lock and the backup lock both were wrong, so I had to call the property to determine the correct code. This minor inconvenience was made easier thanks to the copious communication the property owners provided and I had someone on the phone within a minute to resolve the issue. Minor cleanup on departure included throwing out trash and running the dishwasher since we used plates and utensils but nothing else. Very homey and welcoming, though if you're not used to it (or you have loud suite-mates) the windows are meant to allow the breeze and sound in so I hope you enjoy the sound of chickens and cardinals early in the morning (because I actually did). ##### Benjamin P.
