It's a great place to rent with ocean views, a heated pool. And it's a good place to buy as it's a vacation rental that does quite well
This was a condo we rented through VRBO. Great location, you could walk to the beach. Clean and quiet. 2 bedrooms, washer and dryer. Had everything we needed and the grounds are kept up very nicely. Owners respond promptly to any questions,
Poipu Sands has become a second home during my stay on Kauai - and one of the most beautiful ones! The staff & service is very kind and helpful, the surroundings and location is amazing - as is the house itself. Looking forward to next time! Aloha
An incredible location- near all the action of Poipu Beach, but with some privacy and more space to spread out too (importantly, my kids were able to play soccer in the lawn areas!) Everyone from booking to the end of our stay was pleasant and helpful. My kids loved the pool! We saw whales and dolphins from our comfy deck chairs. We loved walking to Shipwreck beach and to Brennecke and see the turtles. The lava arch too. Great location, and with big comfy rooms and spaces (we were in 523 Poipu Sands)
We stayed in unit 413 and absolutely loved our stay. It was a short walk over to Shipwreck Beach abs the Hyatt next door. The grounds were very clean and well kept. The grills were cleaned daily and the pool area was great! I really enjoyed our stay here and can't wait to at again!!
Our second time staying at Poipu Sands, and we loved it just as much this time as the first visit. Location is a strong point if you like to walk/run along the ocean, as the path in front of condos run right down to the shore. We loved walking over to Shipwreck Beach to watch the sunset, or take the path in the opposite direction to get down to Lava Arch and Poipu Beach Condo layouts are spacious with beautiful views—-great for a group We’ll be back! We’ll
Room was lovely! Home away from home. View from back porch was amazing. Clear view of sunrise and beach. Beautiful landscaping as well. Quiet and well maintained. Couldn't have had a better place to stay!!!
After a hotel room at a resort for four days, our condo (416) was spacious, clean, and well appointed. If we stood on the edge of the lanai we could see the ocean. I am sure some of the condos have ocean views. The pool is heated, a little cold but has a good security lock. Bbq's are available. There's a security patrol, but the neighborhood is quiet. Good location, although a small walk to the beach.
South Shore area known for sheltered Poipu Beach, golf courses, shave ice spots & resort dining.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
