Poipu, Kauai 2BR Ocean-View Condo. Resort Pool, Hot Tub & Air Conditioning

About the condo

Enjoy an ocean-view stay at Makahuena Resort in Poipu. This two-bedroom, split-level condo accommodates up to six guests and features a covered lanai overlooking the ocean and resort pool. Just beyond the lanai is Makahuena’s distinctive double-colored plumeria tree.

When the surf is up, watch waves crash against the shoreline rocks and surge high into the air—a memorable sight from the lanai. In winter, you may spot humpback whales offshore, and dolphins are occasionally seen throughout the year. The lanai also has outdoor dining, making it a lovely place for morning coffee or a meal with family and friends.


The space

Upstairs, two bedroom suites each offer an ocean view and a private bathroom. One has a king bed and the other a queen bed. The living room sofa bed provides additional sleeping space.

The full kitchen features quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Contemporary furnishings balance comfort and style. Air conditioning is available in the living area and both bedrooms. All windows throughout the condo, including those in both bedrooms, were replaced in December 2024.


Resort amenities and nearby attractions

The resort’s shared amenities include an ocean-view swimming pool, hot tub, and tennis court. Poipu, Brennecke’s, and Shipwreck beaches are nearby. Beach and ocean conditions vary, so check local conditions before swimming or entering the water.

We provide beach towels, chairs, an umbrella, cooler bags, boogie boards, sand toys, and a collapsible beach cart. The nearby coastal trail leads toward the Mahaʻulepu Heritage Trail, with views of Shipwreck Beach and the coastline.

Brennecke’s Deli and Beach Broiler, Poipu Shopping Village, The Shops at Kukuiʻula, and historic Old Koloa Town are a short drive away. Waimea Canyon and Kauai’s North Shore make rewarding day trips; allow extra time for the island’s winding roads.


Amenities and supplies

Enjoy custom-roasted Kauai coffee, Wi-Fi, and an in-unit washer and dryer. We provide a full set of towels and a starter supply of essentials, including three rolls of toilet paper in each bathroom, soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, laundry detergent, paper towels, tissues, and trash bags. These supplies are intended to get you started during the first few days of your stay.

From the parking area, you’ll walk down approximately 20–30 steps to the building, then climb about 2.5 flights—or approximately 26 steps—to the unit.

This condo checked all of the boxes for me and my family. I wanted an amazing ocean view my kids wanted beach gear my husband wanted a cozy bed and AC throughout We wanted proximity to our island excursions . Overall, I would book this condo again, in a heartbeat. Our host sent helpful instructions for check in/check out. The home itself was equipped with all that we needed. Plenty of blankets, towels, dishes, soaps, beach chairs/wagon, plenty of parking on site. All in all, a wonderful experience. Did I mention the ocrean view?!?! The balcony was a quiet, serene place to enjoy morning coffee and evening sunsets.

Wonderful property in a great location! Easy access to some of the most popular beaches on the island as well as close to many restaurants. The host was quick to respond to questions as well as provided recommendations for things to do. The patio did get hot due to the AC fan, otherwise the views were amazing. The unit was also well stocked with plenty of beach gear, rolling cooler, sunscreen and bug spray. Highly recommended!

The location was the highlight of our stay. It was close to the beach and conveniently located near most of the attractions we wanted to visit, which made getting around very easy.Overall, the place was relatively clean. I’m someone who pays close attention to cleanliness, so I tend to notice small details. The coffee maker still had an old, moldy coffee filter inside, so I had to thoroughly clean it before using it. The TV remote was also quite sticky, and I wiped it down before using it. These are small things, but they matter to me. (Just my feedback)That said, the beds, linens, towels, and dishes were all clean, and we had a great stay overall. Because of the excellent location and otherwise positive experience, I’m still happy to give this property a 5-star rating.

The views were beautiful from the condo. It rained every day, so an umbrella would've been helpful. The patio was very small and hot because of a fan for the AC but that was a small issue compared to the rest. It was a wonderful place to stay!!
