Beautiful house and surroundings! We really enjoyed a relaxing and "zen" like atmosphere at this home. The owners put a lot of thought into making this rental feel like a home with all the comfort and extras. Customer service with the rental management was outstanding!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Poipu House at Makalea. The house was lovely, well equiped, comfortable with abundant seating and lounging area, and comfy large beds and baths. The pool was fabulous and made entertaining our grandkids fun and easy. Whats not to love about the soft breezes coming through such a beautiful home in paradise!

The Poipu house was amazing absolutely perfect for our family. The grandkids had so much fun in the pool that it was a fight to get them to go to the beach. The feedback I have is just to let you know that the toilet in the master bathroom would keep running every so often so we had to make sure to keep an eye on it and flip the handle on to stop it. The toilet in the upstairs bedroom that faces the street evidently made a screaming noise as it got close to the end of filling. The fan in the server rack is getting pretty loud and the fan at the ceiling in that closest is pretty plugged up (sorry, it is the IT guy in me). However, everything about the house was amazing and is so perfect for a large family. Thank you again

Great location and beautiful pool

by Michelle Artz
The property was prefect for our large family gathering - plenty of space and the pool was amazing. The management company was so professional and tended to anything that we needed. The overall location was perfect for Poipu, close to everything yet secluded in a quiet neighborhood. Loved the view of the golf course in the backyard - would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Poipu.

Hawaiian Tropical Retreat

by Tyler Lassig
We rented the entire home for 8 days and 7 nights for our family and guests (10 - 5 adults, 5 children) and could not be happier with the property! It boasts amazing gathering room sizes and the bedrooms, amenities, views and landscape are more impressive than the photos show. We were so pleased with the home. My wife and I scheduled massages out on the lanai, and it was one of the most relaxing massages we’ve ever had just listening to soft Hawaiian music on the sound system while the waterfalls from the lava pool trickled. The property management was VERY helpful in assisting us with both the massages and a family photo session. (THANK YOU DARSHAN) Our photographer (Christian) was awesome! He took us to Shipwreck Beach just 5 minutes away. Can’t wait to return!

Perfect Family Vacation

by Nealy Jones
This house was amazing and exceeded our expectations. We were a family of 6 adults, 2 teens, a 5 and 3 year old. This house was so clean, beautiful and fit us all perfectly for a week (we could have easily stayed forever). The house is close to two little shopping centers with boutiques and good eats. Great beaches are near by but honestly just hanging out at the pool with waterfalls and a hot tub made the vacation extra relaxing. ATVing, zip lining, surf lessons and other activities are close by. Also a Costco for family home dinners. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Poipu Paradise

by Dave Baker
My wife and I celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary in the House. We had family and friends join us throughout our stay and the house was a tremendous success. The layout with the kitchen, family room, and lanai area flowing into one big open space was perfect for our needs. There was always a breeze blowing through the house that made for comfortable living. The pool and jacuzzi were big hits with kids and adults alike. The management company was very responsive to all of our needs during our stay. The location was ideal for beach, shopping and dining. Great home! I highly recommend this option for a memorable vacation experience.

Perfect house for big family

by Rachel Mizuno
This house was by far the best I’ve rented in Kauiai. We are frequent travelers to Kauai and this house was perfect for our family of 9. Every room was well appointed, from the kitchen to the bathrooms to the bedrooms. My favorite part of the house was the lanai and pool. We spent lots of time just hanging out by the pool, sunning in the plush chaise lounges or reading under the outdoor fans. There is A/C in every bedroom.
One thing to note: there are two separate master suites upstairs each with their own keyless entry. Great for couples who want privacy but perhaps not suitable for very elderly (there is one set of stairs) or very young kids. There is a set of full bunk beds and a king bed in the main house along with a master suite.
Kitchen is very well stocked. Double washers/dryers in laundry room. More than enough pool towels. TVs in all rooms. It’s a smart home with an excellent sound system. We could choose which rooms to stream music into.

Excellent location, walking distance to Poipu beaches and shopping.

Stay here! You wont want to leave!

Such a great place to stay!

by BARTON MILLER
We loved the location of this home. Close to shopping and beaches. It was so great for our kids to be able to swim whenever they wanted to instead of living by hotel pool hours. The two washers and dryers were very convenient. The lanai was a fantastic place to have dinner by the pool. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. Also, the beds are super comfy!
The property manager quickly responded to all of our inquiries and was exceptional in accommodating our every need.

Family reunion

by FLORA CHILDS
Very positive experience from all participants, aged 18 to 79. We all enjoyed the pool. The lanai area was used and enjoyed by everyone. I don’t think we used the sofa and living room facilities at all. Master bedroom was amazing. Kitchen was clean and efficient. We all agreed we would like to return to this property.

Fantastic!

by Cheryl Sauvageau
Our family had an incredible time in Kauai and top of the list was the most impressive home that we rented for our stay. All we could have asked for in comfort! We enjoyed the living area that accommodated our large family in the evenings after a great BBQ from the front deck. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable and kitchen well stocked with all the needed cooking utensils that we could ever imagine. Greatly appreciated the management company who everyone we talked to were extremely professional and accommodating ensuring that we had arrived safely and determined if all our needs were met. We will be back again next year and hope that this beautiful home inside and out is available for another great week of adventures.

Best Possible Hawaii Vacation Setup I Can Imagine!!!

by Kevin Kohn
Having experienced a variety of venues; all-inclusive resorts to typical rental properties, this is BY FAR THE BEST setup I have seen! Pictures are amazing but don't do it justice. Beautiful stonework and woodwork/cabinetry and appliances.
No noisy neighbors, complete seclusion for privacy and a great pool for kids/guests. Kids were content to never leave (I had to drag them from the pool so they could actually get some sleep at night ;)). Fully automated/wired lights, TV, entertainment system throughout.
Minutes from best beach in south shore. Golf course behind home plays great!
The management company (and Kalo) is bar far the best and most responsive I have experienced. If there was a way to rate 10 stars, I would do it! I can go on and on! I will definitely do this again on next Hawaiian vacation!

A little Slice of Heaven!

by KIM HEMENWAY
This house is unbelievable. From the incredible pool with waterfalls to the bedroom suites. We rented 3 houses for our wedding party and was glad I got to stay in this one. Kauai is an incredible destination and this house made it even better. The house is better than described. It's hard to put into words when it's perfection. Great for multiple couples to have their own quarters and space and have a central location in the kitchen and family room that opens right up to the pool and hot tub. If you are going to Kauai, this is hands down the house to have.

Great location and great house

by Vik Tiku
Overall excellent vacation home. Took a little while to figure out all the technology, but once that hiccup was taken care we had a blast. We had few other issues but they were taken care of promptly and without hassle. Our kids especially loved the pool which had a pretty large shelf for our non swimmers to splash on.

Our stay at Poipupu House at Makalea

Awesome get away

by Bruce Bryan
Loved the location, and the house! We were able to check in early, as we were coming from Princeville with perishables, so that was a plus. Upon arrival the house wasn't a clean as it could have been (needed vacuuming and mopping and change of beading).. but a minor inconvenience. The house is awesome, and has tons of tech and a sweet pool! The subdivision isn't completely built out yet, so complete privacy on three sides was a bonus! The management staff was perfect, the concierge service perfect, the experience was awesome. Would be nice to have a schedule posted in house when gardners/pool service is scheduled so there would be no surprises... but no big deal. We will be back!

GORGEOUS HOME FOR FABULOUS VACATION

by Monique Giuffre
The Poipu House at Makalea is absolutely gorgeous with so many fine details! We were a party of eight and this spacious home was perfect for us. Whether we were sharing a family meal in the beautiful eat in kitchen or lounging poolside, this home offered the perfect setting for a relaxing vacation.

Gorgeous home!

by Kendra Rauber
Our extended family (8 adults + 3 young kids) recently stayed at the Makalea house for a week and it was absolutely perfect! The house is brand new and gorgeous! The house was in immaculate condition on arrival and had plenty of space so that each family had their own private space. The house is beautifully decorated and has high end furnishings/electronics. The pool is perfect for families with young children as there is a very shallow "swim off" area for kids to splash and play without having to swim. We initially had some issues with the wifi and TV, but staff was very responsive and helped us resolve these issues quickly on our first day. Only thing that would have been nice that we didn't have was some sort of "instruction manual" for the house in terms of use of the electronics, trash procedures, etc. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would love to come back! Highly recommend this house and Kauai Exclusive. Thanks for the great memories!
