Koloa, Hawaii
This is the best south shore Kauai location, it is in a mature tropical setting with a small stream winding through the property. Our pathways are lined with beautiful flowering plants and trees. Calm, quiet, peaceful is the walk through this little piece of paradise. The gorgeous blue tile swimming pool is landscaped with an incredible variety of orchids and species palm trees.
A walk out the back gate of the property turning left puts you at the Koloa Landing, the premiere diving and snorkeling spot on the south Shore. It is a short walk up the street heading east leads to the ocean and the sandy beaches of Waiohai. Leaving our back gate and turning right heading west takes you past “secret baby beach” and within ten minutes you are at the famous “Beach House” and Prince Kuhio beach.
Amazing sunsets, great snorkeling and world class surf spots all at the “Beach House” set back relax and take it all in!
Across the street from Wai Komo we have the Kukuiula shopping mall, it has everything. We have fine dining to casual restaurants, ice cream shops, art galleries, clothing stores, surf shops, organic grocery stores and more. On Wednesday they have a great farms market (don’t miss it, local fruits,vegetables and foods) a good time and it starts right at Happy Hour!
Just to make it easy for you to find all the great beaches, hiking, shopping etc. on Kauai we have a copy of the “Ultimate” Kauai guide book in our unit (coffee table drawer) enjoy it….and be sure to leave it.
Now we are the back building ground floor end unit. This means sunlight and trade winds all day long, no parking lot noise, no car alarms, no one dragging suitcases by the front door or stairs to climb. We have a private and quiet back patio, it's great place anytime, especially for breakfast.
Our condo is 1000 sq ft one bedroom with a spacious kitchen, separate living room and dining room. What we have done is completely remodeled it, everything is new from cabinets in the bath and kitchen to carpeting, counters, fixtures and furniture.
We have a walk in shower with travertine tile and stone counter tops. The unit has its own washer and dryer with dish a washer in the kitchen. We have ceiling fans in all the rooms with recessed can lighting, all with dimmer controls.
The furniture is from the CW WO gallery Honolulu. You will find that as this is our second home we designed and furnished it with quality and comfort in mind. The bedroom has a Sealy pillow top Cal king bed with “protect a bed system”.
We have two 50 inch ultra HD Panasonic Smart TV’s with Sony blu ray compact disc player and we have a Netflix account that is already setup on the TV’s. The entertainment is a Capello player that is FM, CD, IPOD or ANDROID capable for you music. Cable TV and High speed internet with Wi-Fi ready to use (the password is on the router…its long!).
Our pantry is completely stocked as well as the kitchen is for everything you need. A Cuisinart Teflon complete set of pots and pans and every kitchen utensil you need. Check the large pantry everything from rice cookers to crock pots, coffee grinders it is all there.
To make it even more enjoyable boogie board, beach mats, chairs and coolers are in the pantry for you to use.
Now if golf is your game you have three courses all within ten minutes of your front door at Wai Komo. Let me give you my ratings and you can pick (remember check twilight rates and online deals).
Kukuiula Course (platinum) Poipu Bay Course (Gold) Kiahuna Course (silver)
Here’s the local golf tip: drive 15 minutes up to Kalaheo and play the nine hole at Kukuiolono , it is set in a park with incredible views of the south and west shores, its $9.00 to play and the rating is FUN! When you're done get real local and stop by the Kalaheo Steak House great food and people.
We suggest when visiting Kauai slow down relax and you will find a lot of smiling faces and friendly people…it’s called “Island Style”.
So here are some do’s and don'ts about Wai Komo Stream Villas and our home.
It is a NO SMOKING complex….out front by the pool area only!
Please wash off sand from feet and beach chairs before coming inside (hose on front patio)
Keep sliding doors closed (the geckos and their flying bug friends want to come inside)
Do not put 'HOT' pots or pans on stone counters(we have holders on stove) it discolors stone.
Please use the Hawaiian quilt as a cover on the couch (it keeps the sunscreen etc off the fabric)
Please remove your shoes before entering condo
Pool keys are hanging up in pantry, please put back when done.
Please use the recycling containers (trash and recycling is located in back of parking area)
Electricity is from fossil fuel on Kauai please help conserve energy by turn off lights etc.
Please enjoy and respect our home ….Mahalo
We’ve made many trips to Kauai and the Poipu, first time staying at this condo complex. Enjoyed the flexibility of the location.
I enjoyed the overall setup of the unit, except I found it weird to have to walk over to a closet to find all the dishes and cups. But th exercise was good for me!! The bed was terrific. Also well stocked with beach chairs,umbrella and boogie board. It also took me a few days to realize that I arranged for two units for my children and there families at Christmas 12 years ago.
Very clean and exactly as described. Nice location and very quiet.
Extremely clean, well equipped, and convenient location! We will be sure to come again!
Very happy with our stay
My husband and I enjoyed a lovely stay at this freshly renovated space. Super roomy and comfortable and close to snorkeling!!! Loved it would stay again !!!
Great property and host!
Wonderful vaca with family property is nice, quiet location fun swimming pool
We had a relaxing wonderful stay. It was our 50th anniversary. Going to the beach, swimming in the pool and just relaxing. It was the perfect rental for our needs. Thank you Jon for sharing your home with us.
Excellent location with plenty of space including laundry for a longer term stay. Had everything we needed and very comfortable.
I really enjoyed my stay at Jon’s property in Poipu. It was the perfect place for my week long trip to Kauai. Great location in the center of town just a few mins drive to the beach and to the shopping areas. Very clean and quiet. The place was stocked with all you need for a stay (even a first aid kit that I put to use after a spill on a hike!) with everything labeled nicely. Highly recommend!
The condo was everything it was advertised as, very spacious and well equipped and in a great location, close to beaches, restaurants and shopping. Great place to explore the island from.
Well equipped and in central location, a short walk to the sea and the shops and dining facilities. Barry
There was only one thing wrong with this accommodation. The septic tanks were right outside of the unit. Most days, especially during the heat of the day, one can smell the septic and it drifts into the bedroom through the screens. We did not notice the odour at night once it cooled down. Other than that, the location of the villas is excellent, and the villas are on lovely grounds. The unit was very well equipped, clean and very comfortable. We definitely enjoyed our visit to Kauai however we would not stay at the unit again because of the septic.
Beautiful rental with tons of privacy. We absolutely enjoyed our stay here and will do so again in a heartbeat. There is tons of space with a huge living room and dining room. Kitchen is also plenty big for two people to comfortably prepare a meal. It was well stocked with just about anything you could need. Owner communicated promptly and made check in / out a breeze. Quick five minute walk to the ocean front when leaving through the back gate. The grounds at this location are beautiful as well. All grounds keepers we encountered were incredibly friendly and even gave us a freshly picked bundle of bananas from the grounds. Parking is right off the street with plenty of spaces. Highly recommend for any couple or small family.
All the amenities and convenient location. Great stay!
Great stay in Poipu. It was conveniently located near shops at Kukui'ula, that has good shopping options and fine dining. There is also a nearby market that has the best acai bowls, a great option for breakfast, and Da Crack Mexican for delicious burritos. The condo is clean and very quiet, we felt like locals while staying there. It is well stocked with everything you would need if you enjoy cooking and most importantly it has an umbrella, chairs and cooler for the beach escape. You will need to bring or rent your own snorkel gear. The complex has a pool and the vegetations and the grounds are beautiful. We visited several nearby beaches, especially liked Poipu Beach that is less than 5 min away by car.
We were well pleased with our stay at Wai Komo Stream Villas (#303). The condo was very clean and organized with everything needed to enjoy a week in beautiful Poipu. Mahalo, Jon!
Jon's property is well taken care of and tediously organized. Everything was clean and in good working condition. Internet worked well, and there were no bugs or other critters inside. We made the right choice!
This place was perfect for my family: perfect location, beautiful updates, great pool and bbq, and fantastic owners. I highly recommend and was at a fair and reasonable price. We’ll stay here again!
The home is located next to the hotels. There is a short 5 min walk to the closest beach that is right in front of the Sheraton hotel and is perfect for swimming and snorkeling. There is a snorkeling spot right behind the complex as well where we saw tons of foah and a few turtles. The home is fully stocked with everything you need - beach towels, chairs, umbrella and even a stick for hiking! The kitchen has everything and I was surprised to see the amount of spices and oils, etc. the bathroom is also fully loaded with supplies for laundry, showering, etc. be sure to bring your own though as I’m sure these are things that others may have left behind…why not! Love the carpet as if made our feet feel good after all that hiking. The complex is so beautiful! Jon responded to everything in a timely manner. We will be sure to come here again!
Would not change a thing. A trip to remember. The unit had everything we needed. Compared to all the other locations, this was by far the best. Amply parking, close to access ways, markets, shops, beaches. This property exudes the aloha vibes of the island of Kauai. So quiet, peaceful, and one with nature. Would definitely stay again. We did not want to leave and was hard to accept when 10:30 AM hit on our last day :( thank you Jon!
We loved our stay here. The location is great - beautiful grounds and the condo is very comfortable and well-stocked. Everything is clearly labeled which spoke to my Type A personality! It is only a short drive to the beach and the condo has boogie boards and beach chairs (and beach towels) which cut down in rental costs for snorkel and beach equipment . Our conversations with the host were so helpful (because I was that person who deleted their email with key information). We had old temperatures and good breezes coming through the condo at night. Yes, we heard wildlife sounds at night but you are in the tropics. If you think that might bug you, bring some ear plugs just in case. It is well worth it to stay here! We cooked in for most meals and everything you could possibly need was available. If you are thinking about staying here, we would highly recommend it!!
Excellent property, owner great communication with everything clean & ready for our stay
