Good rental
Submitted: April 26, 2011

Stayed at this rental property for four nights, thought it was really good. In general, it was as advertised. It's about three-quarters of a mile from the nearest beach, so about a 15-minute walk. It has easy access to shops, the Poipu harbor, and restaurants (best restaurant was Josselin's Tapas). Also, Poipu is kind of at a mid-point of the island, so to speak, so it was easy for us to make excursions to all parts of Kaua'i. (Technically, this place is in Koloa, right on the border of Poipu.)
You can just barely see the ocean from the landing outside. Lots of trees and flowers in the back yard and on the street, many birds calling. Roosters may wake you up at dawn, but it's like that all over the island.
The neighborhood you drive through to get to the rental property's street looks kind of run down, but the street the property is on is nice. Seemed like a safe area, we had absolutely no problems.
The home is big with two master bedrooms (two queen beds total), well-appointed in general as shown in the pictures, and very clean. They provided towels, beach gear, dishes, cookware, etc.
Would have liked to have had the following:
Cooking knives sharpened
Air conditioning (although it cools down easily at night with the windows open)
Garbage disposal in the sink
Dishwasher
Hand soap in both bathrooms
Stronger internet signal
Laundry soap provided
Smaller kitchen chairs around the table so they aren't in the way when cooking
The owner was very friendly and easy to arrange with. Overall, we were happy with our stay.
