Poipu Oceanfront Home | Clifftop Views | Sleeps 14

This house was perfect for our vacation! It was big enough for our whole family, the beds were comfortable and it has amazing views of the ocean!! We saw turtles from the house every day.

The property had the most amazing views of any property I’ve ever stayed at anywhere. It was centrally located to all the restaurants, and there were nearby beaches that were perfect for our group.

Lovely setting. Great communications with all. Kitchen not well stock with things like can opener to open bottle/can. Spices minimal. Place could use maintenance and rehab but we understand it’s for sale for 30 million. Simple things like hooks in bathroom for wet towels. Dishwasher very touchy to operate. Washer and dryer fabulous! Please know we would come back again. We had a blast. The above is simple thing.

The property was not as expected. The house needs to be gutted and modernized furniture is old in living room cannot sit on sofa without numerous pillows to support your back. There is no air conditioning in the main house and when we arrived the small apartment the air conditioning did not work. It had to be replaced the service that helps with the house were very responsive light switches don’t work on some areas especially over the stairs. The windows leak especially over the stairs to the point we were putting towels on the stairs and changing every hour to catch the water the house is not clean due to the fact everything is worn and can’t get any cleaner. There is paint missing on doors and windows when we arrived the refrigerator was not functioning and almost lost all of the food we had just bought if we had not had the refrigeration in the small apartment. The dryer would does not get hot to dry towels. Had to run multiple times tried hot and medium setting still did not work. In loft bathroom there is a family of bugs that hung out each day. They need to get the place sprayed and toilet sets are loose. The thing going for this property is the view which is amazing

Amenities and views were the best! House was wonderful.

There was no host or anyway to contact the host. The amenities were not good. Only two full size glasses, the can opener was cheap and didn’t work. The kitchen was not user friendly

It is all about the view!

The view and property location was fabulous. The home was very clean. We saw whales, dolphins and lots of turtles from the deck. We also saw the green flash because the view is so expansive. The easy walk to Poipu beach was very convenient and increased our groups flexibility.

The view alone would get this house 5 stars! Waking up every morning to look out from the patio to the waves crashing on the shore, beautiful sunrise over the water, and sea turtles galore! We even saw spinner dolphins from the house! A quick walk down to the bech to play in the water, using their provided boogie boards and snorkels was amazing! Very clean and accommodated my whole family. Having separated and defined sleeping areas as well as places we could gather as a large group was incredible. We could have just stayed there the whole time with how relaxed and welcoming it felt. Next time we go to Kauai, we will stay here again!

Needs updating , fan didn’t work, bugs can get in under window, and not the cleanest , but a beautiful view and good locations.

We had such a great and memorable two weeks here! The house and view was amazing. Although we explored the island, we did have a couple chill days at the house, and it was amazing to be surrounded by such natural beauty. We were able to comfortably use the kitchen and enjoy both the outdoor and indoor eating areas. We used the grill a couple times as well, and it was incredible to be staring at the ocean while barbecuing. And every night we ended our day with an amazing view of the ocean and the night sky, whether from the deck or the side patio. Every room in the house was able to hear the crashing waves as we slept. We absolutely loved staying here and would totally do it again!

We loved our stay in Poipu! As others have said, this property’s location cannot be beat! Views were amazing, we saw turtles and more turtles! The location is fabulous and we loved walking down to the beach. The only downside was not having AC in the main house. There is a wall AC unit in the attached studio, and it worked great. Also, in response to some reviews I’d read that said it was rundown, I actually thought it was very clean and I loved some of the retro vibes/ decor throughout the house. There were some visible signs of wear and tear but those didn’t impact our stay. Check in was also super easy. With AC it would be a 5/5!

Beautiful house and location. Close to everything!

I just wish we would have booked it for longer, description does not mention it but it had a lot of snorkel gears, beach chairs , umbrellas. Overall the views and location makes up for home being a bit rusty, as a family we just lived waking up to turtles swimming around while we sipped our morning coffee and enjoyed sunset from the same balcony in the evening

Unfortunately, this was not the experience that I thought that we would have at Hale Moku.The house is on a beautiful piece of property. On the outside it looks great. But on the inside, it wasn’t what we were expecting. Especially for the price. When you get to the “front” sliding door, there aren’t any lights so it was hard to get the key and open the door.On the VRBO listing, it states that the house is air conditioned. It is not an air conditioned house! There is a separate room air conditioned with a small and aged unit.Without any air conditioning in the main part of the house, you use glass louver windows. Even though the sound of the waves during the day is nice, it isn’t at night when you have all of the windows open because the house is so hot! There were at least 3 windows that didn’t have shades on them.The kitchen had very minimal supplies and the plates were mismatched sets of old plates. The sheets were not as crisp and clean as you would normally have, but the beach towels were clean. But the one of the worst discoveries was a pair of dusty shorts underneath one of the twin beds that had been there awhile.We had an encounter with a large wasp and other bugs that I am assuming might be termites? The day before we left the house next door was tented for pest control. The outside decks are needing boards to be replaced. On a lower patio section there was a broken chair.Air conditioning and some repairs would improve this property!

Unfortunately, this was not the experience that I thought that we would have had at Hale Moku. The house is on a beautiful piece of property, but it is in need of many improvements and updates including air conditioning, window amenities, painting, and replacement of worn out items..

We loved the home! The views were amazing. We watched turtles and whales every day from the deck!! Each of our kids had their own space. The great dining room table fit us all so we could gather in the morning and the evening!! The homes decor was very appropriate and very eclectic . We loved it. The private studio for the family with the infant was so perfect!! The home had 2 boogie boards a surf board and chairs!! Also umbrellas were great to bring to the beach. We would rent here again!!

Dated house with fantastic view

The house was more than accommodating for our needs with 6 of us and the view was breathtaking! It was close to the beach and restaurants. Negatives: the garbage disposal didn’t work, some of the windows and blinds didn’t work, the oven in the guest house didn’t work, one of the showers didn’t work (the hot water handle just spun around). These are just small things that were inconveniences, but we would definitely stay again.
