Poipu is the best location in my opinion. Condo is about 7 min walk to the activity hut where you can get towels & rent beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. Kiahuna beach (where activity hut is) was my favorite beach! Great snorkeling, great waves & you can check out chairs for freeeeeee! Condo was nice and new & the ice maker in the freezer was KEY!! Would love to come back!
