Wonderful location... just a quick walk down to multiple beaches with incredible sunsets. We saw so many turtles on Poipu Beach several mornings and evenings, and seals as well. Free towels and chairs to borrow right on the ocean under the palm trees made for lovely relaxing afternoons. We loved how the condo was so open, letting their air flow through and it had everything we needed. The lanai was fully covered so we stayed dry during even the heaviest rainstorms and it was great for morning coffee while listening to the roosters! The host was super responsive and jumped right on getting any issues resolved. You can walk to multiple bars and restaurants and a cute little shopping mall across the street for souvenirs. Poipu was a central location to explore the whole island, from Waimea Canyon to Keke Beach, although traffic can get pretty backed up in the town of Wailua (on the way to the north shore).
