This place is exceptional. My wife and I booked Darin’s Airbnb for a belated honeymoon. First off, the location is excellent. It is a 30 sec walk to Kiahuna beach—which we liked even more than Poipu beach (only a few more minutes further). The deck is situated right under a beautiful Monkeypod tree with a great lil view of the ocean. That gives great shade and the unit gets a stellar breeze. We loved sitting on the porch, reading and falling asleep. The unit feels recently updated and the kitchen is well stocked with kitchen tools, utensils, appliances and quality pots/pans. My wife and I cook all the time and we were pleasantly surprised to find everything we needed tools-wise. You’ll need to bring/buy your own food (e.g. cooking oil, salt/pepper) but the Big Save market is less than a 10min drive away. Darin also supplies you with beach chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards. My wife and I had a ball in the ocean—pretending like we knew how to boogie board, snorkeling right outside the unit and enjoying the sunset. We felt lucky to spot a turtle and see a few sleepy monk seals on Poipu beach.
Finally, we didn’t realize that this Airbnb would give us access to the Kiahuna resort-like amenities. There’s towel service, a convenient beach stuff rental, and access to a really nice gym/pool across the road (we highly recommend checking it out!)
We would definitely come back. Thanks for the wonderful stay!
