The place was perfect for our family of 6. The unit was clean and spacious. Each room had ceiling fans and floor fans were available (no AC but most places don’t have it). The place was very quiet at night except for the crashing waves. The place was stocked with everything we needed for a 5 day stay and anything needed for a day at the beach (towels, umbrella, snorkeling gear, beach toys for smaller kids, chairs, mats, boogie boards and even a cooler!).
There are a few markets nearby to pick up food and drinks for your stay. There’s a selection of local restaurants but most of our meals were homecooked or on the road while we were out and about.
The pool was large with alot chairs and umbrellas. The location in Koloa (adjacent to Poipu) was very walkable to Shipwreck Beach and just a quick two minute drive to Poipu Beach Park.
The place was clean and had a great view of the ocean, grass area and pool from the balcony (its a second floor unit). The pictures were very accurate to what you get.
Yes, Koloa/ Poipu is a lot quieter/slower than Waikiki (where we stayed for the first part of the vacation), but we couldn’t complain - we were on vacation!
We had the car and were able to get around the island quite easily. Also, the airport was only 30 mins away.
The only very minor issues we had were addressed quickly. The TV needs to be replaced as we had to adjust its picture settings as best as we could to make it watchable.
All said, we’ll back very soon!
