"Stunning view from the lanai!! We loved watching sea turtles and schools of fish as the waves crested over the reef in the mornings. Wonderful location right next to the Beach House - beautiful sunset..."

About this apartment rental

ON THE OCEAN condominium "Turtle Haven" steps from the sea near Poipu with spectacular views. Swim, surf, snorkel, sunbath or just relax in a peaceful corner of Kauai Island. Dazzling views of the tropical Pacific Ocean welcome you as you step in the door. Your unit faces the ocean directly with nothing between you and the sea. Watch the whales, dolphins, and turtles from your lanai (balcony).

This unique condominium is flanked by Turtle Cove on one side and renowned Lawai Beach on the other. Lawai Beach offers can't-miss snorkeling with turtles and colorful tropical fish steps from your door as well as sunbathing, surfing, and swimming (SNUBA too!). We've seen octopuses and endangered monk seals there as well. Enjoy the outdoor shower tucked between tropical plants for Kuhio Shores guests before heading up to the unit to relax. On the inland side, find a piece of history at the sacred Prince Kuhio Park.

Your unit will be 30 feet (9 meters) from the water: open the windows and doors, feel the trade winds blow, smell the ocean, and listen to the crashing surf. Sip your coffee or tea on the lanai soothed by the sound of the waves and Pacific blue waters as far as you can see. Enjoy privacy over a coral reef and turtles surfing from this second floor unit #210 (with elevator close by): No other units can see into your space and no telephone means complete peace.

This condo offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and sleeps 6. Find a King bed in the master bedroom, a Queen bed in the second bedroom, and a Queen sofa bed in the living room. For those occasional days when it's a bit warm, AC throughout the unit will keep you comfortable.

With floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall windows, you will enjoy the sea from the living room, dining room, or lanai. Watch whales breach in the winter and turtles feeding directly in front of your balcony. Or scan surfers tackling the waves while an occasional snorkeler visits the turtle cleaning station below.

The kitchen offers granite counter tops and stainless appliances. The unit includes oven/stove, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, insulated stainless French press, electric kettle, microwave, and full refrigerator with freezer and ice maker. It's fully furnished with everything you need to cook in or enjoy a drink on the lanai, with a BBQ onsite for your use. Or visit one of the island's best restaurants and bars next door, The Beach House, only steps away.

Free cable and wireless internet are included and there is a smart flat-screen TV in the living area as well as a small desk. The easy-access parking lot allows one car per unit with a coin laundry on each floor of the building.

Both the master bath (with separate large walk-in shower---see photos) and the second hall bath (with twin sinks) have custom tile work. Unique art work on the walls conveys the Hawaiian spirit.

Take a stroll down the road to visit the National Tropical Botanical Garden and a natural geographic wonder, Spouting Horn blow hole. The upscale Shops at Kukui'ula are easy walking distance with many fine restaurants, ice cream, and shopping. Scuba diving and snorkeling at Koloa Landing is only 1/2 mile away (
Enjoy the peace, relaxation, and adventure of Kauai by staying in a peaceful corner of the island steps from the sea in an ocean front unit.

Stunning view from the lanai!! We loved watching sea turtles and schools of fish as the waves crested over the reef in the mornings. Wonderful location right next to the Beach House - beautiful sunsets!! It was in a convenient location between the blowhole and the sea turtle resting spot, and around the corner from shopping and dining. Condo had everything- beach towels, chairs, nice touches theoughout. Lots of seating and kitchen was great, kona coffee was yummy!Thanks for a beautiful stay, we hope to return year after year!

Nice condo located right on the ocean. Fantastic view of the ocean from the lanai. The condo is on the second floor, so it has a little better view than the ground-level condos. Saw a lot of whales spouting and breaching. Location was great - walking distance from many shops & restaurants. A nice little shopping area is a 10-minute walk. There were also snorklers and surfers in the immediate vicinity, as well. Condo was in good shape - seems very well maintained.

The view is incomparable. As advertised and shown in the listing photographs, the lanai is about 30 feet from the ocean on the 2nd floor of the building. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai and watching the ocean and whales for hours. The unit itself is a bit tired and in serious need of an update. It compared unfavorably with other comparably priced accommodations in which we recently stayed in terms of furnishings, supplies and equipment (both items and quality). Limited kitchen equipment lent itself to less meal preparation that would have been expected. There is no garbage disposal. The living area is poorly lighted; beach chairs were old and rusted. There were noises (24/7) from mechanical equipment (hot water heater and toilet in the master) that were annoying, especially during the night. Overall, it was a pleasant stay (primarily because of location), but the unit could be improved with a little effort and not a great expense.
