Lovely spacious condo with wonderful views of the ocean. Very comfortable beds and A/C and fans on all 3 floors.We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and would recommend this property.There are stairs to the condo, and a fairly steep walk to the parking lot to be aware of if you have mobility issues.
Beautiful, clean home with amazing views. Within walking distance to both Poipu and Shipwreck beaches. We had a wonderful vacation and would stay here again.
This place was perfect for our group. We spent so much time out on the balcony enjoying the views. Loved hearing the waves at night when it was time to go to sleep.
Would definitely stay here again.
Sunset views were amazing. Property was just as listed and had everything we needed for a perfect Hawaiian vacation! Plenty of linens, kitchen stocked with everything needed!
We had the perfect stay. Great condo with the perfect views. Watched dolphins and turtles everyday from our balcony. Koloa Kai management company was wonderful to work with and were in constant communication. I would recommend this condo and this company to anyone.
Absolutely stunning location with AMAZING whale watching!
This property is EVERYTHING we hoped for and more. Amazing whale watching from the lanai and amazing views from the bedrooms. MA1310 was a hit with everyone in our group. The owners were VERY responsive to texts and emails and very helpful throughout our stay. 10/10 recommend! We will be back!
The view and location of this condo cannot be beat. The condo could use some updating and it was not the cleanest place we have stayed. However, we spent very little time inside the condo with the great outdoor view and activities.
Beautiful views from the wraparound lanai and all bedrooms. Condo had nice big rooms and Well stocked kitchen. The location was great in a nice neighborhood. Easy parking. Easy walking. Lots of stairs as it’s a 3-level condo but we didn’t mind as the views were spectacular. Perfect place for our girls getaway!
Very comfortable, well furnished, quiet condo. The 3 bedrooms/bathrooms worked perfectly for our group. Terrific views of the ocean/sky through windows on each level. Watching dolphins was a special treat. Pool & hot tub were refreshing/relaxing. A quick walk to beaches, paths, stores, etc. Communication with property management was quick & helpful.
We will definitely recommend this condo to others.
Our stay at this rental provided amazing views that cannot be beat, plenty of sleeping space for a family of four, and a convenient location to restaurants, shopping, and adventuring. We enjoyed the pool several times, as well as Poipu Beach.
The unit itself needs a bit of TLC (like a new front door as the current one doesn’t fit at all), but overall we had a wonderful stay. Note: There are stairs, so we don’t recommend it to guests with physical limitations.
Our family would definitely return to this rental because the views, crashing waves, whale and turtle watching, and location were simply the best!
View cannot be beat but level of stairs is not properly noted
We stayed here with my parents (77, 74), teenagers (16, 19), my husband and myself for a family vacation. The unit was well stocked with everything we needed and the view of the ocean truly was spectacular and made our stay extra special. Beds were comfortable and supply of everything from shampoo to toilet paper was appreciated. However, the description of the unit definitely lacks any mention of the amount and steepness of the stairs to get to the unit and in the unit. With aging parents, this was very difficult and I would not have rented it had I known this. They managed, but it was very challenging for them the whole stay. Additionally, the air conditioning was spotty and while we were glad to have it, it never quite worked entirely, especially in the loft. All things considered, the management was responsive and the stay was very nice, we just wished the pictures and descriptions had been more accurate.
Amazing views of the ocean from every window and room. If you select by view, highly consider this location.
Other items:
1. Older unit (built in late 1970s). Multiple maintenance issues discovered within 2 minutes of arriving: exhaust fans in bathrooms not working, one large blind broken, and 3 lightbulbs out. Clothing dryer broke halfway into trip.
2. Management is responsive, but clearly is inconsistent with maintaining the unit between tenants.
3. Great location- close to 3 walkable beaches
4. Loft bedroom has no bathroom on same floor (3rd floor). They really have to use powder on 1st floor because other two bathrooms on 2nd floor are en-suite.
5. Great breeze- there are several lower nicer units at this complex but they appear to get a lighter breeze. This unit captures a better breeze which keeps the unit cool. Air conditioner units are located in each bedroom and one in master if you get a hot week without breeze some how. We only used them at night.
6. Kitchen is well appointed. Even has a coffee bean grinder.
7. Great room was comfy and balcony area was great with multiple sitting areas.
Would we rent again? Likely yes. My top priority is the view, which I considered outstanding. I just wish the management company really checked the unit well between tenants and fixed things before we arrived. It is clear their process is a bit off on this.
