    Views were amazing, close to the beach, pool (kids requirement of course). Everything was smooth in the stay from check in to check out. Would definitely come back. Not only that but the views were awesome. We say more than our share of turtles floating in the tides, a pod of 6 dolphins jumping by and a couple of whales out ont he horizon splashing as they surfaced. Overall, stay was exactly what we hoped for.

    Beautiful condo with oceanfront lanai… We had 4 adults and plenty of room for all.Very close to Poipu proper - a short 15-min walk down the hill or easy car ride, 5 min.Nice pool on lovely property, quiet! We watched sunrise and sunset from lanai and saw turtles and dolphins up close in water below our lanai, whales a bit further out - every day! Thanks for a lovely stay on this stunning island!!!

    Wonderful stay

    We absolutely love our stay. We will definitely return next year. The location of the condo was perfect. We were able to see whales , turtles, and dolphins right from our Lanai. It was well stocked and our bed was very comfortable, I slept like a baby. You could hear the waves crashing as you fell asleep. The owners made checking in and out very easy. It was such a relaxing vacation.

    This place was amazing! Probably one of the best views on the island. Right on the water. We could hear the waves crashing all day and night. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. The place had everything that we needed for our 4 night stay. We would definitely consider staying here again if we ever return to the island.

    Makahuena building 5 has a great location. You are overlooking beautiful Southwest sky/ocean with really beautiful sunsets. Waves crash on rocks which also has a spouting hole. We really had a very enjoyable and unforgettable stay. The property is well stocked, matches description and the hosts communicate well. We would stay again. The property is well-maintained, but there is some room for improvement. The parking is a bit further from parking, which is something one might want ti consider if traveling with checked in bags.

    Gorgeous

    Stunning! Listening to the waves all day and night was what I was hoping for. Could not have been closer to the ocean than this condo. Location was perfect. Condo was spotless. Beach equipment was a definite plus! Very private and liked being on the ground floor which had a gate to look over the railings for turtles poking their heads out of the water! Would definitely recommend it and would stay there again.

    The location of this property is excellent. We loved watching the sea turtles every day and the crashing waves against the rocks is calming. Great sunset views for the southern side of the island. The property had all the amenities we needed for the week. We had a great time exploring the entire island and this property was well located to get to all sides equally. We would defintley stay here again for our next visit.

    Comfortable, quiet, prime location, felt like home.

    The location of this property is on point. The whale watching, the waves crashing on the rocks, the comfort and ease this place has made it feel like a home away from home. There are some beautiful resorts near by, but honestly I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else when we come back. The only thing I would change is the name of the owner of the property to my own. Our stay here was perfect.
