305 Kuhio Shores — “Jewel on the Sea”
Oceanfront Romance on Kauai’s Sunny South Shore
The moment we walked into what would become our Kauai home, we were speechless. The sweeping views of the Pacific, lush green mountains, swaying palms, and crashing waves felt almost unreal.
Perched directly on the ocean at Kuhio Shores, our beautiful third-floor condominium offers an experience unlike anywhere else on Kauai. From the lanai, you can watch sea turtles feedingbelow. From our property, see surfers riding world-famous breaks, whales passing in winter, and the moon shimmering across the water at night.
Located beside Lawai Beach, one of Kauai’s most beloved snorkeling spots, you can step outside and swim among tropical fish and turtles in crystal-clear water. The famous Beach House Restaurant is next door, along with scenic coastal walks, shops, art galleries, and the beauty of Poipu’s South Shore.
Inside, the condo blends tropical elegance with comfort and tranquility:
-Air conditioning in the bedroom
-Unobstructed ocean views
-Luxury Cal king bed with premium linens
-Fully equipped kitchen
-Spa-inspired Italian marble shower
-Fast, secure Wi-Fi and workspace for remote work
-Spacious lanai with chaise lounges and dining area
Whether you are celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, special occasion, or simply need time to reconnect and recharge, our “Jewel on the Sea” was created to be a peaceful and unforgettable retreat.
We also welcome you with an Aloha Basket of coffee and snacks so you can begin relaxing the moment you arrive.

    We had a great time, convenient location to explore the south shore. The water and sunrise views were wonderful. Well equipt room. Parking was free and right at the building. Restaurant was right next door so you never needed to travel for dinner but make reservations. Just don’t park directly under the palm tree at the condos, bird poo but everything was great. We would stay again.

    This condo was fantastic. The owner provides excellent literature and accessibility to her and her local support person, should need arise. The condo has a balcony/lanai with amazing views of the ocean and the sea turtles swimming in it. Sunrise is stunning from the lanai. And 24/7 you can hear the surf. The condo is outfitted with many supplies including swimming and water gear. Kitchen well outfitted. Would come back again to this very condo in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

    Such a beautiful view with a great location. The apartment is a little outdated but it was clean and comfortable so really no complaints there. We enjoyed the sunset each night and spent our day doing some of the best snorkeling right out front. We saw turtles and all kinds of fish! The host gave us a great hiking recommendation that ended up being one of the things we enjoyed the most about our trip!

    The condo is as described. The AC was appreciated in the bedroom and cooled off nicely. We made good use of the snorkeling items in the closet. Before you buy a cooler the condo has a small and larger one to use along with chairs and umbrellas. It was relaxing to sit on the lanai and watch the turtles poke their heads up. Many used the cove to snorkel and scuba dive. It a perfect location to view the sunset just around the corner of the building. Thanks for a great stay

    We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is located in a great part of Poipu and close to beaches, restaurants and shopping. The condo is very well kept and clean. Host was easy to contact and check-in is simple. Pictures in the listing are spot on, including the amazing ocean view. We would stay at this condo again.

    We had a great stay at Kuhio Shores. Closet had 4 beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and hats. Kitchen had everything we needed including a little rice cooker and kettle. Great morning views from the lanai, quick walk to Beach House and Lawai Beach for snorkeling. Building is older Hawaiian style so it is comfy and quiet instead of glossy like a big new resort.

    This condo has a stunning view from the lanai. I watched turtles every day from the lanai. The condo has most everything you need. The A/C in the bedroom works well, but the rest of the condo stayed really warm even with the doors/ windows open and the fans going. There were only 2 bath towels/person & 1 hand towel/person with no bathmat. The condo listing shows that it has a washer/ dryer, but it is not in the condo. They are available on each floor, but their are 2.50/load for the washer & 2.50/load for the dryer. A little disappointing especially with limited towels. I would recommend staying here as long as you are aware of the quirks of the property.

    This is the our third time staying at Kuhio Shores, first time in this unit. It is a very comfortable unit, well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed and furniture. We have stayed at other locations on Kauai previously, but Kuhio Shores is our favorite — great snorkeling right outside the building!

    The communication prior to arrival was fantastic with lots of information. The check-in was easy. We spent every morning sitting on the balcony watching the sunrise and listening to the waves crash. The condo has many accoutrements for the beach, including chairs, sand toys, an umbrella, snorkeling equipment, and beach towels. We stayed cool due to the cross breeze through the condo when the back door and windows are open. Next time we are on Kaua’i, we will see if this condo is available again if it’s just myself and my spouse. The pull-out couch was not very comfortable for our child to sleep on.

    We stayed at this property for 5 nights as part of our honeymoon in Kauai. The owner is so sweet and provides ample details on ensuring a great stay. The unit itself is quiet and relaxing. The best part is the amazing lanai with views of the ocean and comfortable patio furniture. It was so nice to open the back windows and listen to the ocean waves while sitting inside. If we ever come back to Kauai, we would absolutely love to stay here again! It was the perfect peaceful escape!
