We didn’t spend much time in the home, but we could have easily spent our whole stay between the home and near by baby beach. We didn’t have many needs, but the host was proactive in correspondence through text. We will likely return with grandparents for a future visit.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for a week for our 20th anniversary with our whole family. The location is second to none. The view from the large patio with its coverage to protect you from the sun was our favorite. We preferred to have dinner there than at a restaurant. The house has air-conditioned rooms but the main living areas are not which never was a problem because the breeze off the ocean is so pleasant. I would stay here again anytime -- and hope to.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental of this property was smooth and easy. Most of all, it was a prime location with probably one of the best views you could want. You get the best of everything...lawn to lounge on, rocks to travel on, and sand to dig your feet in. Everyday we enjoyed the warm breezes and sound of the happiest birds on earth! Location is tucked away in a cozy cul-de-sac, but also within a few minutes walking distance to a great shopping and dining area. The house was clean and had what we needed. We'd definitely stay here again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have had the opportunity to stay at beautiful Storehouse many truly has the most gorgeous 180 degree view of the Ocean. We see sunrises in the morning and sunsets in the evening. A magical place to make family memories.Lori did a beautiful job decorating and all amenities for cooking and relaxing are available to dine in and eat on the lanai.The sounds of the ocean lull you to blissful sleep at night. Louis, Jenny and Yannell make sure all is perfect for your stay, and they are positive and easy to work with.The location is great for walking to baby beach, or up to Kukuiulu for restaurants. shopping of Lappets ice cream. We have made many family memories here.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wonderful location on a point that affords expansive views of the coastline. The bedrooms and living areas were comfortable. However, the kitchen pots and pans need an upgrade, especially for a rental that is this nice - most were worn out and the nonstick pans lost its nonstick coating. It’s a bit of a disappointment for an avid cook. We understand that pests and insects are a challenge in a tropical environment but we seem to kill cockroaches almost every other day in this house. We have rented other places before on Kauai but never had this issue.

8/10

Beautiful views made this house amazing. We would sit and enjoy the sunrise and listen to the ocean. The home itself is in decent condition but could use a deep cleaning, looks like there have been upgrades to the kitchen counters. We had cockroaches, larva and poo everywhere during our stay which was a bit gross. I've never exp them that bad before in Kauai. The kitchen could use some new cooking utensils, some were in poor shape. Overall it was a great stay but we did have issues with the neighbors walking through the yard to get to the rock break in front. Also had people parking in the cul de sac and going in and out of the property to access the rock break thru the driveway. Was a pain getting them to leave, as most of them were cursing at me or name calling. A gate on the driveway or possibly just some small signs to let the neighbor properties know to stay in their own yard would be helpful.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stonehouse is situated on a point of land which provides you with 180 degree views of dolphins, whales, sea turtles and occasionally surfers.You are literally surrounded by water views. You also have a lovely lawn, privacy and a gorgeous long lanai in which you can sit and enjoy the views or dine al fresco.The home itself is light airy and beautifully furnished with a hand made koa wood living room set. The bedding is very comfortable. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with everything you need to dine in and prepare lovely meals. But if you feel like dining out, Storehouse is a 5 minute walk from the Shops and restaurants at kukuiula. You are also a 5 minute walk from the Beach House restaurant.The bedrooms are air conditioned, however in January we love to have the windows open to listen to the rhythms of the ocean. Stonehouse will not disappoint, and we have made many many wonderful family memories here with our children and grandchildren. In addition, the staff at Garden Island rentals are friendly and easy to work with.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view from the front porch of this home is just unreal. So one would expect comfortable furniture and fans from which to take it in, but you will not find that here. The furniture inside and outside this home is some of the most uncomfortable I’ve ever experienced. At this price point I expect a lot more. On the plus side it’s got good beds, a well equipped kitchen, and plenty of beach gear. The bathrooms are outdated (the toilet upstairs is a toddler size toilet) and the water pressure is poor. We found a roach in the bed one day. The rental company was pretty responsive at the beginning of our stay. When we found the roach they didn’t seem to care much - dropped off roach bait for me to put out. Bottom line, at $1000 a night I expect a whole lot more.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The stone house is located at a very beautiful setting. All windows have stunning views of the ocean.Having said that, the rest of this review will be quite negative. Bear in mind that our comments are within the context of price: $10,000 per week. At $2,000 weekly our complaints would not be justified!The house interior is shabby. It looks like nothing has been upgraded in decades. The bathrooms are vintage 1960s, in fact one of the toilets broke during our stay. Three days later a plumber came in and did a temporary fix. There is no attention to detail at such a "luxury" home as it's billed. For example, the kitchen knives are the dullest I've used, obviously they've not been sharpened in years.Strangely this "luxury" property has only one upstairs bathroom SHARED BY THE TWO MAIN BEDROOMS!!!! The living room ceiling has clear indications of termites in residence. And so on.A parting comment: we requested a late check out and were denied it.We have stayed four times at a neighboring property which did fulfill our expectations. Unfortunately it was booked already. We will not stay at the stone house unless a major remodel is done, but we are not holding our breath.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great location. It's generally private, very peaceful and very convenient for accessing baby beach. It is cool to go out and look at the tide pools and the turtles in the water. General cleanliness could be improved. There was a fair amount of trash from previous users under the bed, behind the dressers, etc. We only saw two very small cockroaches in the house. The porch has a significant number of very tiny ants that do bite occasionally, and this is our biggest complaint. It was slightly challenging having a 3 year old due to the height of the beds and the toilets, but otherwise he loved it. I do agree the property needs a no trespassing sign to keep people from crossing the yard to the public rock space. All the other homes have this sign, therefore people park and cross at this house because it does not.Overall I do recommend this property, and the management company was very responsive and easy to work with.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is perfect. Just a minutes drive from shopping and 5 minutes from Poipu beach. The property is gorgeous but in need of some love. It doesn't seem that anyone from housekeeping reports back on repairs that need to be made so you've issues with the house that would normally be taken care of if someone lived there. Screen doors that dont work, shower curtain in bottom shower that's too short so water sprays all over the bathroom floor, very dirty floor mat in same bathroom, knives are very dull even with the sharpener we tried using several times to help them work. Pros of this place, the view. The crashing waves at night die out all other noise. The kitchen was stocked enough for us to cook/grill every night comfortably. We were able to walk through the other rental yards (after getting permission from management) to go to baby beach. It was one of our favorite places to visit. We saw turtles every day off the backyard by the crashing waves. Side notes: beds are pretty firm and the cable TV is only located upstairs. Not an issue but inconvenient when you want to watch news while cooking.Management was very communicative and fast to respond. I would recommend staying here and would stay here again if/when we come back

The glass walls in the front framed the most gorgeous views of trees, ocean and sky. The crashing waves lulled us to sleep after a day of snorkeling and swimming at Baby Beach, a few steps from the house. The house was very well-stacked with everything we needed to prepare sumptuous meals enjoyed on the lanai. Overall, a truly amazing stay at a beautiful house in a location like no other!

It is always clean and ready to go. We noticed the changes and upgrades and appreciated the work that was done to I close the upstairs bedrooms. The cockroaches were plentiful this stay and we have never had an issue with those before inside the house. So treating those would help:) Again, we loved our stay and are thankful and blessed to be able to stay there. Thank you for your hospitality!!

Poipu was the best place for us, close to amazing beaches (baby beach is about a 45 second stroll away), amazing restaurants and the view from this house..not sure you will want to go anywhere else! While there are air conditioners in each bedroom, the ceiling fans cool the rest of the house nicely and there is a nice breeze. We started the morning with coffee on the deck and cocktails at night to watch the sun set.
