Poipu Beach Plantation Style Cottage

This place was clean and comfortable and great proximity to Poipu beach to see the turtles every day. Spent a lot of time on the lanai which was very private. Lots of roosters and chickens which you will find out are basically everywhere in Kauai and only added to the charm.

This property is amazing. This is our 3rd time booking this property and we love it. House is well stocked with everything you need to have a fun family vacation.

Simply excellent!

Location was great. Clean and comfortable place overall. Great Lanai and entertainment system!

We had two couples and enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The cottage was clean upon arrival and ready to enjoy. The outside lanais and upstairs screen porch are the best we experienced over previous Kauai visits in various condos and cottages. Location is excellent with easy access to all Poipu has to offer on the south shore. Plenty of chickens & charm. Thanks to the hosts for a memorable stay.

Very beautiful house in a fantastic location. The photos did not do it justice

The house exceeded our expectations. The finishes and quality of the house are the nicest we have ever experienced in a rental property. The owners were quick to respond to messages and very friendly. We would absolutely recommend this to any family looking for a place in Poipu.

Incredible Lanai & Location

The house was spectacular and perfect and the hosts had provided everything we might need, including all provisions for a day at the beach. We enjoyed spending time on the lanai every day and really liked the glass doors that allowed an expansive indoor/outdoor living space. It was especially great when we spent a rainy morning in, enjoying the rain and playing games. The rain chains are beautiful. We were so grateful to share such a lovely space.

This property was incredible! Location is fantastic. Everything about this home was even better than expected. It felt very private. We loved this home and hope to return!!! Also added bonus: so many chairs, snorkels, and two bikes!

Beautifully kept property in a fantastic location. Also very well appointed. We had everything we needed and enjoyed every minute of our stay.

This place is a gem. We loved that it was well stocked with everything you need to go to the beach (wagon, toys, towels, chairs, snorkel gear, umbrella), and is a short 3-5 min walk from Poipu beach. We also enjoyed sitting on the lanai every night and our children loved to watch the roosters. The kitchen is also very well stocked with everything you need. We will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful location and beautiful setting. Great lanai’s and ample space. Best house yet.

Our fifth year at Hale Honu - always a beautiful time!

This house is perfectly located if you want to be at Poipu beach. The Lanai is outstanding. The kitchen is well equipped. The coffee pot could use an update. The furniture was comfortable both in and outside the house. The master shower was not user friendly. We all showered in the downstairs which was somewhat inconvenient. The host was exceptionally responsive to a minor house issue.

Fantastic property in ideal location! We would definitely stay here again :)

The house was exceptional and the location excellent. I would refer anyone traveling to Kauai to stay there.

We loved our stay at this charming beach house! It was perfect for our family. The outside shower was fantastic. Love seeing all the chickens and their baby chicks in the backyard. The location is perfect and close to everything. The upstairs screened in balcony was a great place to watch the beautiful Kauai sunsets. We will definitely stay here again.

The location was perfect! Literally 3 minute walk to two beaches- boogie boards and snorkel gear provided. The house is beautiful, we especially enjoyed being able to open the huge glass doors to let the air breeze through the house. They thought of every detail. The outdoor shower is a nice touch. Lots of towels and beach towels. Washer and dryer both worked well. The key pad locks make it extremely convenient to head to the beach without worrying about the house key being stolen from our belongings while playing in the water. Feet wash stations at each door make it easy to keep the sand out of the house. Comfy couches and cute decor.I have a few minor things that future guests may want to note. The beds a very soft- which some people love!- but it left my body achy… The roosters are VERY loud in this location. Which may not be a problem for deep sleepers… we had to close the windows and turn the window A/C unit on, which was also very loud(maybe it needs to be serviced?) but the good thing was it drowned out the noise of the roosters! So it helped us sleep some.Overall this is an incredible house and location, fully equipped with everything you’ll need for an enjoyable stay.

This wasn’t our first time staying here and won’t be our last. We love this house and location and can’t wait to come back.

Fantastic house. Loved the outdoor shower. It’s the only one my family used our entire trip. It had everything we needed to have fun at the beaches.

2nd visit for us. This time we brought the mother in law and our niece. We had a great time and the home was a good home base for our adventures. Appreciate the added air conditioning in the bedrooms, it was hot for most of our stay. Appreciate the beach gear, coolers. Body boards and umbrellas the house has for use. I really appreciated Kevin helping us get the hot water turned back on, when the solar ran out of energy on a cloudy day.

The property is amazing and the location can’t be beat! We will definitely try and stay there again.

We were so happy to return to Hale Honu after two years and it was just as wonderful as we remembered! We had the most amazing time. Everything was perfect - the house, the location, the weather. We cannot wait to return! Thank you Cathy and Kevin!

Everything about our stay was perfect! The owners were always responsive, helpful and solved/answered any issues. The cottage was well furnished with everything we needed to make a relaxing vacation and the location was wonderful.

What a treat of a home to stay in! The location is superb, steps from Poipu and Brenneke. The home is also perfectly laid out with the best lanai and screened in porch upstairs. There is AC in both rooms but we never needed them in Dec as we just opened the windows (which all have intact screens!) to let the winds come in. The house is equipped with everything, especially in the garage - wagon, kids sand toys (be sure to look in the bins as we didn't see them and bought some!), chairs, umbrella, the best pop up tent, boogie boards, etc. Washer and dryer are wonderful and honestly the house is big and spacious. Outdoor shower was excellent and communication with owner was excellent. We tried to book for our next Christmas vacation but they were already booked since they are that popular )

This place is truly exceptional in every way possible. The location, the house, the outdoor shower, accessories that came with the rental and communication. We had the most amazing time at your place with our 19 and 17 year old kids. We felt at home and couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend our holiday. We will definitely be back. The house has everything you could want and the hosts have thought of everything. They were very accommodating also. The only bad part was having to leave!

Beautiful place right near the beach, loved everything about the house

This was our second stay in this home and it was perfect. The owners have done an amazing job making sure the house has everything you need from towels to sand toys even down to all the kitchen utensils. We always feel at home her due to the wonderful attention to detail. Can't wait to come back next year.
