About this apartment rental


Welcome to your peaceful Poipu Beach retreat The Palm House — a perfectly located, ground-floor walkout condo just a short 3-minute stroll through lush, tropical gardens to the shoreline. Set in one of the most walkable and convenient areas of Poipu, this home offers a calm, breezy atmosphere with easy access to everything you need for a relaxing and memorable Kauai getaway.

Poipu Beach lies on Kauai’s sunny south shore and is one of the island’s most family-friendly beaches. The clear, gentle water and natural sandbar create a shallow, kid-friendly swimming area, while two crescent-shaped bays offer great snorkeling, boogie boarding, and surfing. It’s also one of the best places on the island to spot wildlife—monk seals and sea turtles are frequently seen right on the sand.

Your condo is one of the few in the area equipped with two air-conditioning units, a rare and welcome perk that keeps the entire space cool and comfortable. From your private patio, step straight onto beautifully manicured gardens that lead to the beach, resort amenities, and the heart of Poipu’s coastline.

Inside, the unit is designed for relaxation, featuring stainless steel appliances, a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bedding, and an upgraded TV with a soundbar. The atmosphere stays quiet and peaceful, tucked away from foot traffic, with soft island breezes flowing throughout the space.

A short, scenic walk along tropical pathways brings you to one of Poipu’s most loved beaches. Snorkel right off the shore and watch sea turtles glide by, book a surf lesson at the on-site surf school, or rent surfboards, paddleboards, and boogie boards directly from the property. Snorkel sets and kayaks are available nearby, giving you access to endless ocean adventures—no car required.

The location is unbeatable. Poipu Beach and Kiahuna Beach are both just a quick five-minute walk away. The beach hut offers complimentary chairs and towels, and you can easily sign up for surf lessons if you’re in the mood for something new.

To make beach days effortless, the condo comes stocked with two Tommy Bahama chairs, an umbrella, snorkel gear, a cooler, boogie boards, a beach blanket, and water toys—everything you need for fun on the sand, whether you stay on-site or explore the island.

Guests receive free access to the Poipu Beach Athletic Club, located right across the street. It offers a resort-style pool with a waterslide, a sand-bottom kids area, a hot tub, a full gym, pickleball, tennis, and basketball courts, plus yoga classes, shuffleboard, water aerobics, and an on-site restaurant and bar. It’s a fantastic place to relax and play during your stay.

Dining is another highlight of this location. Many of Kauai’s top-rated restaurants are within walking distance—including The Beach House (famous for oceanfront sunsets), Red Salt, Keoki’s Paradise, Merriman’s Fish House, and Eating House 1849—along with local favorites like Little Fish Coffee, Kauai Juice Co., Starbucks, and Puka Dog. Several luau experiences are nearby as well, with Aulii Luau on the beach being the closest.

You’ll also be in a convenient hub for exploring Kauai’s most iconic spots. Poipu’s sea turtle viewing, Spouting Horn, Lawai Beach, and the National Tropical Botanical Gardens are just minutes away. Adventure seekers will enjoy quick access to the Mahaulepu Heritage Trail, Nā Pali Coast boat tours from Port Allen, scenic waterfalls such as Wailua Falls, and the stunning lookouts in Waimea Canyon. Helicopter tours are nearby in Lihue, and even the North Shore and Hanalei Bay are easily reachable via a beautiful coastal drive.

Guests consistently rave about the comfort and convenience of this condo. The ground-floor walkout makes coming and going simple—no stairs, easy unloading, and direct access to the gardens. The double A/C units provide cool relief when desired, while the walkable location near beaches, restaurants, shops, and coffee makes every day effortless. On-site management is available for check-in, check-out, cleanings, and support throughout your stay.

This unit offers the perfect combination of relaxation, convenience, natural beauty, and resort-style amenities—an ideal home base for your Kauai experience. True Resort-Level Ease

This is a lovely property. It was very roomy for just the two of us. The kitchen was very nicely equipped & had everything we needed. There is AC but we just used the ceiling fans. The lanai is REALLY beautiful. We sat out there any time we were at the condo. The birdsong is just amazing! And the huge garden is right there as well. Communication with the host is super fast and helpful. We also found a geocache in the garden!

The apartment was well-maintained and had everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. The location was super convenient - short walk to the beach, close to shopping, dining, and plenty of great spots to explore. Marinela was great. Communication was clear and timely from the very beginning, with helpful instructions for check-in and thoughtful recommendations for things to do nearby.

We had a fantastic stay here with my wife and son. The air conditioning in each room was a huge plus and made everything very comfortable. The location is excellent—just a short walk to the beach and right across the street from great restaurants and convenient grab-and-go spots. Marinela was a wonderful host—kind, responsive, and very helpful throughout our stay. We’d happily come back!
