ALOHA!

Enjoy the best of Kauai. This fully equipped ocean-view studio condo at Poipu Beach has stunning vistas of the bay, peaceful Prince Kuhio Park, and distant mountains framed by rainbows and swaying palms.

Only steps to the beach

Prince Kuhio Resort, awarded a prestigious certificate of excellence for its outstanding qualities, is a small and quaint resort about 20 yards from the beach. Some of the best swimming, snorkeling, and surfing on Kauai are right out in front at Prince Kuhio Beach and Lawai Beach. Hawaiian sea turtles and tropical fish swim close to shore in a protected cove.

The sound of the ocean

You will enjoy the sound of the ocean, the birds singing, the tropical breeze, and the amazing sunrise every day from your lanai, which has a bar-height table and chairs so that you can fully enjoy this extraordinary setting. On the other side of the resort there is a koi pond, waterfalls, and a large swimming pool surrounded by a lush, exotic garden with a picnic and barbecue area.

Located on the second floor, the 400 sf studio (including covered lanai) is tastefully decorated with island-style furnishings and a comfortable king bed. A split-system air conditioner was recently installed for your comfort. Even without a/c, many guests appreciate the cooling tradewinds that often blow through the windows and it is very comfortable for most of the year. The compact but well-equipped full kitchen has lots of extras. Beach towels and beach chairs are provided. All you will need are your swimsuit and flip flops!

A laundry facility is available in Prince Kuhio complex, located next to the facilities manager’s office on the first floor near the front parking lot. The facilities manager is not an individual unit's property manager, however, he can be very helpful in a pinch during the eight-hour day when he is on site.

Ample parking is usually available at the resort. There’s parking in the complex’s front parking lot, on the first floor of the adjacent parking garage, and along the roadside. If parking in the garage, please obtain a card from the site managers’s office and sign up even after hours when the office is often unlocked. If locked, sign up in the morning.

The owner of this unit lives on-island about an hour away so assistance is always readily available.

A 'Solid Gold Value'

The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook rates Prince Kuhio Resort condos as a 'Solid Gold Value.'

They have everything
Great cozy studio with wonderful host, Jane. She has everything you could want. The bed was very comfortable, linens great, abundance of pots, pans etc. The only thing that was challenging was the parking. Street parking was tough if you couldn’t get in the 1st floor of the garage. We had a full size truck so harder to get in if all larger spaces taken. The gardens there are the absolute best sooo many beautiful or kids on every tree. Wonderful bbq facilities & pool area. Jane is the best.

Great and quiet location so near to everything South
Great little place with everything we needed for our 10 night stay. Quiet and very convenient with covered parking right across from the beach and walking distance (.7 miles) to nice shopping area and grocery store. 20 mins to Lihue stores and a little more than 1 hour to the north beaches. Tons of things to do in the South that are all within 15 minutes. The room was fair sized and the king bed was comfortable. Ocean view with sounds of waves lulling us to sleep. Beach chairs, umbrella, towels, snorkeling gear provided. We had a minor issue one morning with the power and our host was very quick to respond and eager to help. Turned out to be an issue with the power company and not the unit so can't fault anyone for that. Check-in and out was quick and easy. Thanks so much for the wonderful stay!

Perfect location close to south shore beaches
We really enjoyed our stay in this studio. It is just a few minutes drive from many of the best beaches in southern Kauai. Parking was incredibly easy and close to the unit. The pool and air conditioning were nice touches. You may want ear plugs for the early morning roosters which is common all over the island!

Me and my partner had such a wonderful stay. The space was perfect for the two of us and it was nice to have a full kitchen for when we wanted to make breakfast. It was very quiet and in a walkable neighborhood. Also right next to the beach! We would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful tropical anniversary trip!
The room and amenities were as described. It has everything you’d need and we were comfortable. We enjoyed the chairs, umbrella and cooler that was provided. The pool was clean and fantastic. The bbq area was nice for our filets we got from Costco. The fruit stand around the corner was perfect with the sweetest fruit. We miss having our coffee on the patio watching the waves. I highly recommend this room.

Just ok.
Great location and view. Across the street from the best snorkeling beach and sunsets. Appreciated the covered parking and the grounds were beautiful. Short walk to the nice outdoor restaurant/shopping area. It was quite small for 2 people, had a 2 cup coffee maker, 7 hangers, and no information on recommendations for local restaurants, farmers market, activities, etc. We appreciated the air conditioning, and sand chairs.
