Aloha!

Kauai is a beautiful island. Ten days was too short, however, Gwen and I were able to visit most of the island ot spots. Great information from past guests. The best food was the food we cooked in the condo. Your kitchen is well stocked. The view from the condo is magnificent. We awoke to the rooster crows and bird singing every morning. We do recommend going to Kauai Coffee and picking up coffee for your stay. It's only 20 min away in Eleele.
Golf at Poipu Bay was excellent, but somewhat expensive. Our next trip will be back to Maui.

Thanks & Happy New Year

We are very sad to see that the time has flown by so fast (I told my husband we needed more time here, he said 8 days is plenty. Boy was he sorry).
We enjoyed snorkeling by the Beach House. This is a more advanced area for snorkelers - we did not know this but did ok first couple of times in. On my third, I hit the reef and split my knee open (there is a nice ER in Lihue, very nice place). We then tried Lydgate Park - very nice, safe, and lots of nice fish. Only go to Snorkle Bob's especially if you wear glasses they have Rx masks and the snorkles ask for Big Bubba. They are worth the money. Avoid Brennecke's food and snorkle shop - bad food, bad service and snorkel gear. We paid twice!
Ate at Beach House two times - excellent we sat in the lounge. It's just as nice as in the main restaurant (ask for Jennifer's section, she is great). Went to Pizzaria - great. Brick Oven Pizza okay - nice place though. Tropical Burgers in Poipu. Stay away from Dolphins Rest. on the North Shore - it was the pits. We also ate at the Keokis Paradise - great calamarie. Stay away from Big Save. It was just as cheap to eat out. $6.99/gallon of milk, $2.99 for dozen eggs (yikes). Go to Walmart or Costco if you have a card.
We went on the NaPali Cruise. It was wonderful. Saw lots of Whales. Great time to go. We were told not to go deep sea fishing when the whales are here becuse the fish are scarce. Also the boat keeps all the fish per Hawaii law (boat keeps all). We drove to the canyon and saw the falls and saw the wet and dry caves on the North Shore. Also beware of the millipeds - this is the beginning of the season for them. I think we killed 20+ of them (in the book they say they bite). Mark came in and sprayed the condo. Also we had a problem with ants (small) and we even had a friendly small gecko in the condo (this is said to bring luck). We had a wonderful time here in Kauai - hope you do also.

Aloha!

It is so hard to leave. You have a great condo in a perfect location. Close to everything. We traveled the whole island - amazing! Loved the privacy of the beach across the street. the pool was perfect for a quiet afternoon. Try the "Puka Dog" at Poipu Shopping Village - Great!! Thank you for sharing your condo. We will be back next time for 2 weeks.

Mahalo!!

I found peoples suggestions in this book really helpful. We ate at the Beach House twice. If you ust stroll on over about a half hour before sunset you can get the best seat in the bar. Keokis Paradise and Brenneckes were both good too. Shopping was great at the Hawaiian Trading Post at the Spouting Horn and at Whalers General Store at the Poipu Shopping Village.
Now some of our own discoveries! Our Island Helicopters tour was fantastic, as was our boat trip up the Napali coast with Kauaifun Tours. Captain Gregg splits his time between here and very interesting jobs for the Discovery Channel. He loves to tell stories, so be sure to ask. Unlike most of the bigger boats that go up the coast, Gress takes his boat under waterfalls and into sea caves!
Also try Savage Shrimp - the truck is parked near the intersection of Kawai & Poipu Roads.
I really enjoyed shopping for grat tropical clothing at the funky store on the way East out of Waimea. Hilo Hatties in Lihue was not nearly as good. We enjoyed many beaches, but the Beach House beach is the best.
We had great food at the Casa Blanca Bar & Grill and at the Plantation Gardens Restaurant. (Check out the aloa, cactus and amazing orchids). We ate between 5:30 and 6:00 everyday when it was less busy and much quieter.
We loved the location here and the condo was very comfortable.

Thank you,

You have a great condo in a beautiful location! The3 snorkeling next to the Beach House was awesome. We did a lot of hiking and really enjoyed the hike on the Napali Coast, Beautiful!

Shopping is best at Spouting Horm and Hawaiian Trading Post going towards Lawai.
Coconut Market area Luau stunk. For future guest, check out Smiths and reserve very early. Same with Beach House restaurant - reserve early.

Aloha,

Well, this is exactly what we needed. It is truly paradise. The condo was wonderful with great weather. We do believe South Side is the most relaxing. Met some great other couples also. Thursday we went to Oahu for the day and could not wait to get back to Kauai. Going to dinner at the Beach House and then to "The Point" to listen to a Surf Band. Sat off to the Big Island on business.

Thank you again,

Aloha!

Having a great time. After our little delay this spring, we finally are here. Condo is great just what we needed. A week just isn't enough. Helicopter tour with Harter was awesome, doors off is the way to go. Sunset dinner cruise with Blue Dolphine we say turtles, seals, dolphins, and the beautiful coast. Jim went golfing twice - loved Poipu Bay, best golf ever. I went to the Hideaway spa for a day of pampering - will be back soon! Left an umbrella and some mats. They came in handy at Tunnels Beach.

Aloha!

We've had a fantastic time thus far! We're on our way to the North Shore for a few days and then it's back to PK's! We're going to be in hyour #307 at that point. First day was rainy and overcast so we drove west to PoliHali Beach which was phenomenal. Very hot. Bring a beach umbrella! (And plenty of drinks). Waimea Canyon was magnificent. We stopped at the 14-15 mile marker and hiked the Black Pipe Trail to the waterfall. The water was refreshingly cool. It was about 2.5 hours hiking round trip. We loved it! Thanks for being home away from home!

Aloha Jack & Dorinda

Mahalo for your part in making our dream trip to Hawaii so memorable. This is our 35th anniversary splurge - celebrated a couple of months after the event.
On Kauai we especially enjoyed the Island Helicopters tour over the island. We would definitely recommend this company. We were seated in front with the pilot for truly awesome views.
We took advantage of the Beach House sunset views for free from the sea wall - and were not the only ones.

Aloha,

Kauai is the most beautiful place we have ever been. I enjoyed every minute on this island. Thank you for your wonderful condo. We had a terrific time touring all of the island. I just wish we had more time to see more. Thank you again for this experience.

What a fantastic vacation - a dream come true. The worse part of it all is having to go home. We traveled throughout the entire island and still want to go again. Unbelievable!! Thank you for the fun and memories. God bless & Mahalo.

Aloha,

We came to Kauai to celebrate our 31st anniversary. This was our 3rd island. Hawaii is truly a romantic and beautiful place. We took the Blue Dolphin Sunset Cruise. I would highly recommend it. We enjoyed the falls and eating at Keoki's Paradise. Mahalo to You.

Aloha,

Mahalo for having us back again!

We arrived today after spending 7 days in Princeville at our timeshare. Beautiful weather here in Poipu. Dinner Saturday night at Keoki's Paradise ~ food pretty good - lava flows excellent ~ then on for a walk and back to Keoki's for Hula Pie. Sunday a day at Baby Beach - then I "Rhonda" got brave and decided to snorkel so off to Snorkel Bob's for gear. My first time snorkeling and had way to much fun. Tonight dinner at Roy's and Monday night "Smith's Luau". We went down to the trading post with hopes of again purchasing a Ni'ihau shell lei but they close on Sundays - we'll try Monday. I believe these to be authentically made in Ni'ihau, representing one of the last truly Hawaiian art forms.

We arrived today after spending 7 days in Princeville Thank you once again for a wonderful stay in Kauai.

This has been our first visit to both the island and the Prince Kuhio Resort. My mother and I came here on a mother - daughter trip to visit some of our family (from Sacramento, CA) who was also visiting Kauai but staying at the neighboring Lawai Beach Resort. We both has a blast staying here and visiting the beautiful island of Kauai. Some of the best restaurants that we found and enjoyed were the Popup Tropical Burgers and More - a great little cafe with great food, great atmosphere and even greater prices and Keoki's Paradise - an awesome restaurant with excellent food for affordable prices and great atmosphere, perfect for couples!

There was one restaurant that we went to but left shortly due to lack of menu items, sky high prices, and okay atmosphere - The Poipu Beach Broiler. We unfortunately didn't have the change to make it to the Beach House Restaurant because we didn't make our reservations at least 3 days in advance!

As for attractions, the 4x4 Movie Tour was awesome! You visited so many cool places from the Coco Palms Resort where "Blue Hawaii" was filmed to interior mountains of Kauai where all 3 Jurassic Park movies and Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Arc were filmed. This attraction was a blast but very bumpy (hence 4x4). Not for people who get car sick, have back problems, or don't like bumpy movement. Other than that a must-do! Another must-do is attending a luau. I would strongly suggest the Sheraton Resort's Luau. This luau was fun, beautiful, and the only luau on the beach! We had a great time there and the food and entertainment was excellent.

Well, I hope this will help new arrivals to the island out a little bit on places to go and eat. On behalf of my mother and I we would like to thank you for allowing us to stay at your home while we visit this beautiful island. We will most definitely be coming back to visit in the future. Aloha and Mahalo!

Sincerely,

Mellisa Ochsner & Penny Pelster

Our second stay at this great condo. This place has been a warm, dry and safe place of shelter for us during a time of extreme weather. The flash flood warnings, a dam break, road closures and of course torrential rains have reminded us of the phenomenal power and mystique of the ocean and nature in this beautiful tropical region. The spirit and soul of these islands are entwined with a history of weather, of the ocean and nature, which demands our respect. We have had quite an experience in the last couple of days but have found ourselves even more inspired and in love with the raw, powerful beauty of this place. We ill definitely be back. Kaua'i has touched us.

Our fourth trip to Kauai. Our first stay in Poipu as we've always stayed in Princeville. This is a beautiful spot and a comfortable condo. We enjoyed this location and the ease to many spots on this side of the island. We had a stretch of rainy weather but that didn't keep us from having a wonderful time. The few good days made up for the rainy weather. Our stay was enjoyable and relaxing.

This is our 3rd trip to Kauai. This is our favorite island. We have had a wonderful time. We love your condo. It is so nice and had everything we needed. The sunsets were beautiful across the street. We love the beaches. We traveled the entire island for the 3rd time as we never tire of its beauty. Spend several days at the beaches - Salt Pond Beach was nice. We also like the North Shore.

Aloha!

We came to Kauai for our 5 year anniversary and had a romantic and fun-filled adventure.

We began our time on a practical note - we got a Safeway card and stocked up at Safeway for a week of groceries - we saved $30 just with the card. We appreciated the updated and cook-friendly kitchen. We ate in for most meals but stopped at the health food store in Hanalei for an organic salad bar - yum! Also, in tghe same town we had a huge pile of rice, chicken & pork for $8 at Hanalei Mixed Plate!!!

We snorkeled all over but really liked Poipu the best. We began each day by jogging as the sun was rising for a few miles along the beach.

We spent a day kayaking the Wailua River to the Secret Falls where we had a picnic (pack a suit, water shoes and a windbreaker). Definitely worth it - must! another exciting trip is to Queen's Bath, even if the tide is coming in and it's raining you have to hike down to it and watch the ocean crash against the rocks - fun and scary (bring water shoes).

The condo was perfect - we'll be back for sure. Going to the Beach House restaurant tomorrow - sounds like we won't be disappointed.

Thanks for the great accommodations!

What a fantastic island - truly the garden isle. We've really enjoyed the snorkeling at the Beach House beach. So nice to have it so close. I also enjoyed swimming at the condo pool. We've toured the entire island during our week and have been so impressed with its diverse beauty. The condo is equipped with almost all the necessities - a dish washer luxury we would like. It's been a fantastic time in Kauai.

Mahalo,

Also our last night we had dinner reservation at the Beach House at 6:15p - what a perfect sunset with the green flash at the end! The meal was delicious - we loved it - perfect ending!

Aloha Jack, Dorinda, & future guests,

This is a great condo! Had an excellent time and enjoyed all the facilities/accommodations of this place. Kauai is the best island of all Hawaii.

Came here with friends and family to see my daughter and son-in-law get married on "Baby Beach" on Sat Jan 7th. Beautiful wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better day.

Highly recommend the Beach House restaurant for good food and seeing the sunset. Great snorkeling next to the restaurant. Saw several whales breaching on a boat tour while cruising to the Napoli Coasty.

Best luau is at the Smith's family. Take a boat tour to see the Fern Grotto. Gorgeous!!

Waimea Canyon is breath taking. The drive around the whole island is magnificent. Highway 50 to 56. Be aware of afternoon traffic. Check out Wailua and Opaeka Falls. Great shopping for souvenirs at the Coconut Market Place near Wailua. Best beaches: Poipu, Salt Pond Beach, Barking sands and Hanalei Bay.

Had a great time. Hate to leave. Will come back again. Thanks for everything.

Mahalo,
