Great location for seeing the sights but the unit gets very hot. We tried everything to keep it cool. Thank goodness for the AC in the bedroom thatâs where we stayed most of the time. The unit itself is dated but functional.
Condo dated - needs maintenance for safety issues like tub/shower grab bars (tub is large soaking type tub and difficult to step into); no smoke alarm in bedroom, A/C vent needs to be more secure in window opening or it comes loose and hot A/C exhaust blows into room; needs cleaning of bathroom vents, needs cleaning A/C filters BADLY ! Tub is slippery and no rubber mat provided; tub/toilet room light fixture does not appear to be working correctly - takes a long time to turn on and blinks repeatedly before steady light; toilet is not stable and rocks when sat upon; toilet lid is broken or needs tightening on right hinge; bath towels are small and flimsy; Unit does not really get breeze and gets very hot inside-A/C does not really cool bedroom during night. Location good; pool good; appliances work okay; note: extra charge for laundering more than 1 set towels per person!
The locationâs great and the unit is spacious. However, it was SO hot, that it was impossible to enjoy it. We were supposed to cook our meals, but didnât want to spend the time there. It says AC in the headline & the amenities list, but itâs only a small portable AC in the bedroom (with the heat coming back from the window). It actually says this on the text paragraph, I guess itâs my fault that I didnât pay enough attention and trusted the headline/amenities list. It was so hot that we would have moved at our own cost but nothing was really available in Poipu area. Stayed at the end of July.
Everything was nice...however, the AC was not for the entire unit Just the bedroom), and the bedroom AC unit was not exhausting the hot air outside, rather the hot air was going into the room and making it hotter! It was close 90 degrees in there when we arrived at 7:45 PM. We fixed it so it sent the hot air outside, but this was not something we should have had to do.Unit was nice, though dated, but was in a great locatiion!
The location is well located for exploring and easy to get in and out of, an important factor during busy times. Itâs close the pool and an easy walk to Kalapaki Joeâs. The downside is the pool can get noisy in the evening until it closes at 10pm and the south facing lanai can get pretty hot during the day. All that said, after the sun goes down and the pool empties, itâs a real delight with a great view.
Great place, however unable to access local news or weather cable not work. We did contact the front desk, but nothing was ever done. Room needs a wine opener.
Our stay was wonderful. I love the Poipu Kai property. It was beautifully kept. Our room had a fantastic view and was a quick step to the pool, but the location was not ideal otherwiseâŠclose to main road and trash bins so kinda noisy. The room itself needs a complete clean of drapes and rugs and pillows. Also, the lanai furniture is pretty blah. Towels and linens need freshening as they are quite threadbare. The room is very dated in style and decor but functional. I would stay at Poipu Kai again but I would choose a room with a king bed (personal comfort) and further in from road.
Fabulous location! Walk to beach and restaurants. Condo is very spacious and the view is beautiful. The condo itself is in need of some maintenance and a few things are broken and nonfunctional . Regardless of the need for updating and checking to make sure everything is in working order we had a fantastic time and recommend this location
Really enjoyed my time at this residence. 5 min walk to beach, with amazing ocean view from back patio. This was a great stay that I recommend for any other travelers to Poipu.
My wife and I loved our stay here. Great access to Poipu, and the check-in was very easy. The management company called us multiple times to make sure how we were doing, which was very helpful.
Filthy and disgusting is a mild way of stating it. Asked for someone to come out and look at property but they were too busy for the entire 3 weeks were there. We took several photos and would share them. The company and VRBO misrepresented the suite which needs a total reno!
