Had a fantastic stay! Location can't be beat and the waterfront with crashing waves was second to none. We saw whales and sea turtles everyday from the balcony. The short walk to Poipu Beach was perfect. There were turtles and monk seals there everyday as well and if you wait until after sunset you may see as many as 20-50 (turtles) come up on the sand for your viewing pleasure. The hike just down the road from Shipwreck Beach to Makauwahi Cave is a must (2 miles each way). We would love to come back some day.
