We had a wonderful vacation at Nihi Kai 203. We were two couples in our late 50’s, early 60’s. Location was excellent. Poipu Beach is amazing. Snorkeling was easy to get in and out. If you walk a little further right as you’re facing the ocean is a wonderful Sandy Bay right in front of Marriott. You can float out in the bay. We did a boat ride to Napoli Coast, tubing down the sugar cane plantation, Hanalei Bay, Anini Beach and Waimea Canyon. We still managed to find time to relax and enjoy the condo. The management company was easy to reach and very responsive. They left us a beautiful welcome basket for our 35th Anniversary and my friends birthday. It was very thoughtful. The lanai is super usable. We played cards out there every early evening. Amazing view of you Ocean and pool. The pool was pretty small, but heated perfectly. The only small complaint and not really a complaint is the stairs. You go up the stairs to enter main living area and kitchen. You have to go down a pretty good flight of stairs to get to your bedrooms and bathrooms. Not such a big deal for me and my husband. We have a two story home. Our friends didn’t love the stairs. Kauai is amazing and we can’t wait to return. Mahalo

We had a wonderful time staying in Poipu at this property. The location is excellent, with an amazing view of the ocean, complex pool and gardens from the lanai. It’s close enough to walk to Poipu beach and the restaurant and coffee shop there (2 blocks) but far enough that it’s quiet. Check in was super easy and there were lots of emails with instructions. There was beach equipment to use, wifi worked well, laundry, kitchen had everything we needed, beds are comfy. There is AC but we didn’t have to use it that much in March. The breeze is good enough. We would definitely stay here again!
6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
We enjoyed the unit - and the location. But the AC didn’t work properly. We reached out - got an answering service. Were told the next day that we weren’t using them properly- as if we’d never used ac or split units before. We also had trouble finding the unit and parking since the rental agency overlooked sending us the address that GPS could use.
