3-bdrm Oceanview Condo at Makahuena -Walk to Poipu Beaches- NEW Split A/C SYSTEM

Located in the "almost always" sunny, resort town of Poipu, on the gorgeous south shore of Kauai, this oceanfront complex is situated on the southernmost point of the island. From the edge of the dramatic cliffs, just above the crashing waves, you can watch the sunrise in the morning as well as the sunset in the evening, without even switching the spot your standing on! During the winter months, this is one of the best locations on the island for watching the whales that also make Hawaii their seasonal home.

This 3-bedroom, 2-½ bath, home is perfect for an island holiday with two families because there are 2 En Suite master bedrooms. (1 king, and 1 queen). Additionally, there is an enclosed loft with one full bed, and two twin beds. We also just installed a brand new ($29K) state of the art split A/C system. It's the most efficient type of a/c available, so this is now one of the most comfortable condos in the resort!

The entire home is newly outfitted with all-new island décor and furnishings. Enjoy the ocean view from the lanai, or stroll down to “the point” to see everything up-close. The Hawaiian sea turtles show off every day in the cove in front of the complex. The spinner dolphins also enjoy performing for your viewing pleasure. Additionally, in the winter months, you'll see Humpback whales playing, splashing, and breaching as they navigate around the point.

Makahuena is located in between the town's two main beaches. From the condo, it's less than a ten-minute walk to Poipu and Bennecke’s Beaches to the west. You can also hike east from our property along the cliff trail to Shipwreck Beach.

Some of the island's best dining, shopping, and attractions are just a stone's throw away, so we know you’ll be happy you chose this island home for your Kauai vacation.

Location is perfect for any Island Activities

We spent a week and had a great time. We enjoyed being able to use all of the beach chairs, cooler, etc. while we visited. The condo is quiet and the pool is well maintained and beautiful. Of course, the view in the corner is gorgeous! You can look out from this condo and see the pool and the ocean.This condo is located close to several beaches and is centrally located so it doesn’t take too long to get to anywhere on the island. The grocery store is a short drive away to stock up on the essentials.I highly recommend staying in this condo when you visit Kauai!!

Perfect

Our family spent a week at the condo. What drew me was the three bedrooms. I appreciated the loft with 3 beds. All of the beds were super comfortable. So many thoughtful items and fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Truly felt like home. The grounds are like a park. So many beautiful flowers. The pool and hot tub was a bonus. Loved the location. Walkable to Poipu beach and shops/eating. Communication was seamless. They have beach toys, umbrellas, chairs, a cooler…literally thought of everything. Washer and dryer was so helpful for our family. Will definitely stay again if we come back.

Great location. Amazing view!

We loved our stay. We’ve been to Kauai 4 times and loved this location. The view of the ocean included whales and dolphins! The condo is spacious and pretty clean. The only wish is more toilet paper and paper towels. We stayed 11 nights and ran out of both. One important tidbit is that you need a key to get into the unit. The door will not open at all without the key. Also, the handle to the door doesn’t get you in. Just turn the key and push open…

Fantastic stay!

We had such a fantastic stay! It was exactly as expected and described in the listing and so close in proximity to all the things we love to do in Kauai. The owner was more than accomodating and made sure to always let us know he was available for anything we needed. We also loved that we had beach chairs and toys galore which saved us time and money from renting. Everything worked great and my family and I had plenty of space. We will definitely be back!

What a beautiful condo! Everything was so pretty and nicely organized. Our family had the best time here! Couldn’t have asked for a better condo to spend New Year’s in:-) We appreciated at all the beautiful details in the decorations and the provided towels and beach equipment. Thank you so much for providing a perfect “home” for us to live in for a week. We hope to come back again sometime soon.

Great location

Very clean condo with good sized bedrooms. Perfect size for our group of 7. Great location close to several beaches, restaurants and shopping. Property manager was helpful and quick to respond to questions while we were onsite. The front door does take some finessing to unlock/open and the AC unit makes a regular buzzing sound that is noticeable when trying to sleep, but otherwise it was perfect. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect family rental

We had an amazing trip! We loved the location, short walk to ship wreck beach and Poipo beach. Every morning we loved watching the sunrise from the edge of the property and taking a walk down to poipo beach to see the turtles. Our teen girls loved having their own space upstairs in the loft. The condo is equipped with all that you need to make your stay easy and comfortable. We are sad to go and can’t wait to come back!

Multigenerational Family Kauai trip

I recommend this condo for up to eight folks. Third floor loft requires use of main floor restroom, and shower in one of second floor bathrooms (entry in bedroom.) Community near condo has all you need close by. Snorkeling, beach 20 minutes walk. incredible views of ocean, good food, grocery store near by, pool on property, good restaurants close by. We would visit in the future.

Condo is well equipped!

Although the storm that blew threw didn't allow us to spend much time in the water, the condo was wonderfully stocked with everything needed to hit the beach! The kitchen had everything necessary and the community BBQ was great too. There was enough room for everything to have some space, as well as, good size living/dining room for meals. I would highly recommend this condo, and Chad was very easy to work with - quick communication and very friendly. All in all it was a great family vacation!

Perfect for our Group of 7

Everything about this property worked perfectly for the needs of our group of 7 people. The property is right on the ocean and the condo has a great ocean view. There’s a place on property to view the sunset and a spot within walking distance to view the beautiful sunrise. The grounds are meticulously kept and quiet yet close to everything we needed. Inside the condo we had lots of extras that made staying here so convenient like beach towels/chairs/umbrellas and snorkel gear. The lanai was a great place to hangout and the washer and dryer came in handy. Super comfortable beds and plenty of nice linens. Great air conditioning, too! The property manager, Chad, was always quick to respond to questions and so easy to deal with. Overall, for us, this place was a great find. Highly recommend!
