Ocean Views W/Lanai and Island Décor–Poipu Shores

We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching a few of the whales play in the distance. The unit wasn’t as nice as some other properties that we have stayed at in Poipu. There is a charge for using any of the little shampoos they set out. And for using the little bags of coffee that are set out. The shower floor was gross. It was slippery and full of mildew and/or mold. They provided two small bath towels in the master bathroom. The floor throughout the rest of the condo was dirty. They ask you to remove your shoes, which we typically do anyway, but the floor felt filthy to walk on barefoot. The WiFi is not secure. It is more like a hotel than a private condo. And as a bonus, they leave a full dishwasher of dishes for you to unload from the previous guests and tell you in their welcome materials that is a benefit. It was nice to have a washer/dryer available. And a nice view of the ocean.

This property is all about the view and hearing the ocean. However. It was not being cleaned properly as the floor tiles turned our feet black and the shower tiles were super slipperly ie. Not cleaned. I did love the location. The property manager did address the cleaning issues.

Poipu Shores worked out really well. Comfortable accommodations and convenient location. Appreciated not being in the midst of big resort type places: smaller and more personal. The view out our balcony was incredible. We watched whales breaching and splashing, and enjoyed beautiful sunrises/sunsets.
