Waiohai Beach House: Poipu Beachfront Estate

This oceanfront home embodies the essence of ‘Island Casual’ living, with a focus on relaxation and the breathtaking beauty of its direct ocean views; a perfect spot for those seeking an authentic and unpretentious island experience. The spacious, beautifully furnished 4BR/4BA villa (the only single-family vacation rental on Poipu Beach) flows seamlessly into a picturesque beachside garden that’s like something out of a magazine, or a movie, or a dream: lush tropical landscaping, plush lawns, sparkling turquoise pool and spa—with a white-sand beach and the glittering sea just beyond a storybook gate.

Indoors and out, there’s an abundance of inviting places to relax, play, work, socialize, or enjoy a bit of restorative solitude, with every space enhanced by the music of (surfable!) waves and the exhilarating salty-sweet scent of the ocean. Living Areas, including the spacious, Island Casual great room and chef-friendly kitchen, are crowned with soaring wood-beamed ceilings, and the “Island Style” decor that enhances the charming, elevated-plantation ambience. Upstairs, two stunning primary suites open onto private sea-view balconies, while the larger lanais below invite sunset-watching, alfresco dining, congenial gatherings, or simply enjoying the blissful moment. Every window frames a painterly vista, and the tastefully curated furnishings provide creature comforts and visual delight at every turn.

All this, and world-renowned Poipu Beach just steps away: instant access to sublime swimming, snorkeling, surfing, stand-up paddling, boogie boarding, beach combing, picnicking—and magical memories galore!

Loved the location right on the beach! Easy access to many fun places within walking distance. Only downside of the house was that it doesn’t have AC & the nights were hot (even with windows open). We usually stay in hotels in Hawaii and having AC makes for better sleeping.

the hot tub heater was broken and wouldn't work the whole trip. If you look at this house the hot tub right on the beach is a large part of the appeal. It took me calling VRBO to get even a very small discount on the booking as it was too late to find another house. I understand things happen but more should have been done to make it right.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Best location on Poipu Beach. All amenities provided are great and in good order.

The house was amazing! The location and pool adjacent to the beach just cannot be beat. House was very comfortable for a family of 9 with 3 kids. During our stay the refrigerator broke and they brought over a replacement with coolers of ice within an hour. The range didn’t work well but was functional. House really could have used AC in the bedrooms for sleep comfort in the summer but overall was an amazing property with very responsive host. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing location and views

The location of this property is absolutely phenomenal. The grounds are very well maintained. Can’t beat Poipu beach in the backyard. Gina and the crew were amazing to work with. Super helpful in setting up excursions, a private chef (who was fantastic). The house was well stocked with all the necessities, including toiletries. I can’t say enough good things about the property

Great house for our family of 6 vacation. We loved the location and set up of the house. Can’t beat the view of the ocean. Even though on a public beach and next to a resort the house and back yard felt very private.

Trip of a lifetime!

Our family loved the home and the easy accessibility to the ocean. We had a mix of 3 generations and all considered it the trip of a lifetime. Each bedroom had a great view and cooling breezes. The kids loved boogie boarding in the surf while the adults could maintain a watchful eye from the comfy beach chairs and umbrellas. The large kitchen and outdoor grill made for easy meals at home, yet plenty of restaurant choices also. The pool was fun at night for the younger kids who still had energy to drain. Living area seating plentiful enough for all. Perhaps most magical are the sea turtles who share this slice of heavenly sand and surf. Your family would be lucky to stay here. (And if you can, take advantage of a helicopter tour!)

Another wonderful time

This is our second time at the house. We went once before and loved it so much we brought another family during Spring Break. The location is ideal - minutes from great family activities and seconds from the beach! Everyone had such a great time nobody wanted to leave. The house has everything you could need, and the full kitchen and laundry is perfect for traveling with growing kids who need to eat every other minute. Comfortable and beautiful!
