We booked a two bedroom, two bath unit. Before arriving I received an email stating that the two bedroom was no longer available. I replied with a follow up question which went answered. When we arrived, we discovered the only bedroom faced the parking lot-not the ocean. Had we known this, we likely would have cancelled our reservations. The unit itself was a bit dirty. Housekeeping was very helpful though and did supply a mop at my request. The box spring looks like a crime scene. It’s stained with a dark red material. The kitchen lacks some of the essentials.

Ok, so here's the thing. We didn't actually stay at Poipu shores. I've toured the property, it is lovely, and I will certainly rebook there !! But, there was maintenance being done to the property that meant it wasn't available. Castle management (thank you, Maile!!! you are amazing!!!!) reached out to me before the trip, and booked us in a phenomenal unit with their sister property, right down the road. 10/10, would absolutely recommend

Great location, but very disappointing stay
I booked this hotel because of its location and paid a high price, but the condition of the unit was very disappointing. The facilities were old, and one of the kitchen cabinet doors was falling off. There were many stains throughout the kitchen and bathroom, and the shower area had several mold-like marks (the manager said they weren’t mold, but they definitely looked like it), which made it feel unclean. I also saw two cockroaches during my stay — one of them inside the dishwasher, which was shocking. I closed it right away, and the next day it was gone, probably moving around inside.
The one positive was that the office responded quickly when I reported issues. But with a broken cabinet door, cockroaches, and suspicious stains in the shower, I definitely wouldn’t want to stay here again.

These are older condos that show some wear and tear but that’s doctors the close proximity to the ocean. Sea water and salt over years. With that being said, probably one of the best stays in Hawaii we ever had. We have stayed in 4-5 star hotels and they are amazing, however for the location and parking and no resort fees, this is the place on Kauai. Your balcony overlooks the ocean and you fall asleep to the waves crashing on the cliff. We saw a pod of dolphins and numerous turtles from our balcony. Our unit was pretty up to date. No air conditioner but you really do not need one due to the location. The staff was very friendly even though they were understaffed, but Kauai right now that seems to be everywhere. I would very much so recommend this place.

Excellent area, unit was quite. Needed some updating and minor repairs. Front desk person was very knowledgeable and kind!
We stayed at Castle Po’ipū Shores and, while the location is absolutely unreal, the unit itself felt pretty dated. Lots of rusty fixtures, and some of the room amenities were subpar—think “bring-your-own-screwdriver” energy. That said, it’s hard to be too mad when you’re watching sea turtles and sunsets from your lanai.
Let’s be real: no one flies to Hawaii to hang out in their room. If you’re coming for the beaches, scenery, and proximity to all things Kaua’i, this place delivers. But if you’re squeamish about the occasional cockroach or feel uneasy around questionable metalwork, maybe book elsewhere—or just make sure your tetanus shot is current and lean into the charm.
Would we stay here again? Maybe… if the price is right and we pack some WD-40.

Didn’t get what we paid for or what was pictured
The location was amazing but our room was horible. I'm not one to complain but this particular room at Castle Poipu Shores, shouldn't be rented again. It needs a renovation. Kitchen has delaminated cupboards, tub with shower doors mildew & mold, tub didn't drain properly, all window screens gapping, all drawers swollen & hard to move, patio doors, washer broken didnt spin our clothes. The list goes on. This room should be inspected by a health code inspector, it wouldn't pass.
We paid a premium price to be on tbis property. We booked a deluxe 2 bedroom. We had to change our dates by 2 days because of an airplane flight reschedule. We got a room with less square footage than what we booked and we had to pay more because of the change in dates by 2 days.
We should have been shown pictures that depicted the suite, not just the best the property had to offer. We researched the location and wanted very much to stay at Castle Poipu Shores. We were shocked when we checked in at 1130pm Friday. The office didn’t open until Monday so we had no one to complain to.

Gorgeous views
The unit we stayed in was not represented in the photos, it was a little old with no bedrooms with ocean views. The patio is as pictured, evening sun exposure. Turtles in the bay. Note there is no ac, but we were fine as we were out all day and here in December. Close to a lot of great things. Would stay again, but wosh they would have been more clear on what our actual unit looked like.

On the edge of the island and perched to see turtles daily. Also saw dolphins swimming! The space was nice and adequate for the 5 adults.
Twin beds were hard and the parking was hit and miss on a steep driveway.
Would definitely stay there again!

Fabulous Ocean View!
The suite we stayed at has fantastic ocean views. The rooms are quite large to accommodate five of us comfortably. The kitchen was fully equipped so it was quite convenient for meal preps. Only drawback was the master bedroom got really hot in the early afternoon. The fan in the room was not that strong to cool the room even it was at its max.
