Description of the Poipu Beach vacation home rental

Last Minute Special: Aug 24-30: 25% Off.

Aikane Kauai is one of the closest and newest homes to Poipu Beach. Central to Kauai and ideal for families, couples and small groups. The home has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths and sleeps from 2 to 7. It is fully equipped with snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, free high speed internet access (WiFi) and lots more. It is also one of the few homes with air conditioned bedrooms. Aikane is Hawaiian for "friendly" which best describes this delightful beach house. All new in 2001.

Please refer to the map in the photo area for the actual location of this house. The mapquest location is incorrect.

The house is one of the closest to Poipu Beach Park with its protected lagoon, wide open grassy areas and playground equipment over a spongy ground surface. Poipu was voted the best kids' beach in the state by readers of Hawaii Magazine and the best beach in America (2003) by Travel Channel TV which selected Poipu for its beauty, sandy bottom lagoon, sunsets, warm people, safety, climate, creature comforts, and other area activities. The shallow sandy lagoon is excellent for the smallest babies. Since this is a family vacation, also consider the superb snorkeling in the adjacent bay, and for the more advanced, body surfing and boogie boarding at Brennecke's Beach and surfing on the outer reefs.

Families are welcome at Aikane Kauai. I tried to be mindful of the creativity and natural inquisitiveness of children so parents can have a relaxing time. The house is equipped with a baby gate for the stairs, a high chair, day crib, board games and a collection of Disney videos. Best of all there is no need to pile into a car, drive, look for parking, etc. Just put on a swim suit and walk around the corner to the beach. See the map.

Travel Light. No need to rent, buy or lug gear. The house comes equipped with about everything you might want for the beach including masks, snorkels, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach towels, cooler and sand castle building equipment.

 Kauai Vacation, April 12, 2008
By Maggie Ashby (Rushville, Indiana USA)
We had a fabulous Vacation in Kauai staying at this house. It was everything that it was advertised to be. The house itself is beautiful and clean. We enjoyed sitting on the Lanai and watching the ocean. The house is equipped with everything you need: coolers, boogie boards, beach chairs, etc. Would definitely stay there again if possible.
 
  Best vacation ever !, March 15, 2008
By Rayda (San Diego, CA)
We all enjoyed our stay. The house is perfect for all our needs. Clean and very conviently located. Rooms are big enough and able to accomodate all of us. Children have room to roam and play around the house and we all love good ventilation and excellent view from the lanai. Thank you so much for the good accomodation. We had a perfect vacation !
 
 January Retreat, January 30, 2008
By Mark Gallagher (Roseville California)
We arrived to find the comfortable home lit up and welcoming. All of the amenities were provided for, and nothing was left out. A large plus was the abundance of beach toys and chairs for daily use. The house was spacious and clean, and we enjoyed the downstairs "apartment" as a retreat from the rest of the home. We have visited Kauai in the past, and would highly recommend this property for a large group or family looking for a great place to spread out and enjoy Poipu Beach. This is an excellent location, an easy walk to the beach, and to the Koloa Heritage trail. Be sure to explore the are to the east on foot, as there are hidden treasures to be found. Mahalo.
Owner Supplied Testimonials
Kevin and Alison, Colorado: We had a terrific time and the house was the perfect arrangement for us. We really appreciated your attention to detail - you made us feel really comfortable so that we didn't have to worry about the little things. We got a lot of use out of the guidebooks, boogie boards, etc., and your shopping recommendations were right on target. The bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable that we actually wrote down the make of the mattress! (or was it just Kauai in general that made us sleep so well?) Anyway, thanks for making our first 'internet vacation' a success.

Kelly and Shane, Oregon: Everything was perfect...the house, the boogie boards you had available, the area...everything! Thanks again for all your help, wisdom and great accommodations. I hope we can return again. Aloha and mahalo.

Meg & Greg, Los Angeles: We have loved every minute of our stay in your beautiful home. With all the comforts and amenities this vacation was over the top for us! Thank you for all the details. We'll be back!

Ron, Bev & Shirley from Western Australia: We love everything about this place. It was much more than we expected. Thanks for all the little extras such as the beach shoes, snorkels, masks and boogie boards - we used them everyday. The location had something for everyone. We will be back soon we hope. Chris, thanks for the surfing advice.

Gary: What a great place you have created. You thought of everything. The surfing at Pakala was GREAT! I was really able to unwind in this paradise. Your suggestion of dinner at the Beach House at sunset was great. We fell in love with the tiles in the master shower so we ordered some for our home. Thanks for everything!

Bryan and family, Gaviota, CA: "Your place was our home away from home! We appreciate all of your thoughtful attention to detail.

Wanda, Jon and girls (Mary Kate, Maggie, Madeleine): Thank you for sharing your beautiful house and island. We had such a great time and enjoyed all Kauai has to offer. The girls loved the boogie boarding & the waves. We plan to come back & hopefully bring family or friends!


Larry & Linda & Family, Santa Barbara: "Thanks so much for providing such an enjoyable house. It has been a very comfortable stay. We fell in love with Kauai, beautiful waters, breath taking sunsets."

Chris, It's been 30 years since I was here in Poipu & Kauai running Camp Hawaiian Surf - it was great then and, again, now. We had a ball! Went to Poipu, Polihale, Kokee, Waimea, Hanapepe, Kekaha, Salt Pond, Kipu, Nawiliwili Harbor, Lydgate, Fern Grotto, etc. Played golf at Wailua, Poipu Bay & Kiahuna. A little windy but a great time. We snorkeled & boogie boarded.

Sandy & Rick, Katy, TX: "We had the most wonderful time! Kauai is totally amazing. Superbly breathtaking! Having coffee every morning on the patio with its spectacular view was my favorite thing. Totally peaceful! Wow!"

Mai & Alex, San Francisco: "We had a wonderful time. We were delighted with your hospitality. We will be back next year!"

Gary & Family, Pismo Beach: "Oh how I will miss my wonderful home away from home! Had a great time. This house is so beautiful. What a great place you've created, thought of everything. Here are some of our highlights: the helicopter ride, Queen's Pond, Kipu Falls. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable."

Kevin & Tami & Ashley & Blake, Seattle: "This location is optimum! Close to a great swimming beach, great boogie boarding and great restaurants. Thanks for stocking the house with all necessary items (chairs, umbrellas, booties) for proper beach fun. Not to mention the drink cooler - what a lifesaver! We'll be back! As if all of this isn't enough, your hospitality is truly exemplary. I'll recommend this house to my friends. Thanks so much."

Dave & Kristen, Solano Beach: "Thank you for providing us with such a beautiful beach house in Kauai! Aikane Kauai was the perfect place to bring our new daughter."

Jamie & Paul, San Diego: "This house had it all for 2 young bachelor surfers (including killer waves!). Playing dominoes on the patio while BBQing after long days at the beach surfing..."

Tom & Betty, Pasadena: "We loved our stay in every way. We delighted in watching the spinner dolphins at play, whales passing by and the many turtles feeding."

Brad & Schaelene & Christopher & Emma, Sacramento: "We had a great time! Thank you for letting us use your beautiful home! We loved staying here. It was wonderful to wake up to singing birds in the morning."
