Poipu Kai Hale, Poipu's Hidden Gem
THE ABSOLUTE BEST! Poipu's Hidden Gem! Perched atop the ocean at the exact Southern tip of Kauai, named Makahuena Point.
This historically and spiritually significant home and location provides the most prolific and incredible views of Poipu, Spouting Horn, Niihau the forbidden island and so much more! the forbidden island. There is no better location on Kauai. Please see the reviews and online comments for POIPU KAI HALE
Imagine your vacation experience in this gorgeous location with unparalleled and unobstructed 200°+ views. This spacious home consists of a 2-story layout with high ceilings. Situated at Makahuena Point (Southern most point of Kauai), this is arguably the best location on all of Kauai, certainly the South Shore this home and location is in a class of it's own.
This spacious 3 bedroom/3 bathroom home consists of a 2-story layout with high ceilings. Situated at Makaheuena Point (Southern most point of Kauai), this is arguably the best location on all of Kauai, certainly the South Shore this home and location is in a class of it's own.
This is a stand alone home originally built and lived in by Kauai's famous Lappert's Ice Cream founder. Offering epic views of the sunset, moonrise, moonset, Spouting Horn, and the "forbidden island", Ni'ihau all from your private home, bedrooms, pool and wraparound lanai.
This home also enjoys abundant cool breezes (as well as newly installed AC in all 3 bedrooms). Perched on the ocean away from the inevitable condos and hotels that were built later. The unit is uniquely decorated, with museum-quality handmade in Fiji living room furniture, private pool, lower level has second family room with a tiki bar, granite countertops in the kitchen.
This is the only home at Makahuena Resort, yet you are still welcome to use the report's amenities include a pool, Jacuzzi tub, tennis court, paddle ball court, outdoor grilling facilities, and spacious parking area. The proximity to shopping, restaurants, and activities make this home ideal for you to stay. Full concierge service as well as automobile rental availiable to fully customize and indidualize your experience.
Be one of the few lucky ones that are able to experience and create life long memories with this amazing home.

This lovely home was just as described. Jimmy couldn’t have more gracious or responsive. The AC in the bedrooms was greatly appreciated.

Stunning property!
We had the most amazing stay. The house is beautiful and very comfortable and well stocked. The view and location are unbeatable. We saw turtles, whales and dolphins from our balcony. Jimmy is the best host! He is so friendly and helpful. We can't wait to return!

An oasis on Poipu Beach!
There aren’t enough superlatives to describe this amazing home. The views are spectacular from sunrise to sunset, the breeze sublime, and the comfort unparalleled. My family and I just spent Christmas week here and can’t wait to return. The house is perfectly stocked (has everything you need and then some) and Jimmy the host makes sure you have recommendations for restaurants, activities and experiences galore. Our favorite moments were the quiet ones relaxing in different parts of the spacious house, quietly enjoying the sound of the waves breaking on the rocks. This home will cure what ails you!

OFF THE CHART WONDERFUL !!
It's actually hard to describe just how precious this oceanfront property is... a truly unique spot replete with crashing surf, picturescue sunset views, a family of sea turtles constantly entertaining.... you feel such a part of the surrounding natural beauty. The private pool right at waters edge was in constant gleeful use by our granddaughter. If all that isn't enough your host (Jimmy) makes you feel so very welcome, and has a true servant heart. He truly seems to delight in making sure you have all that you need for a perfect stay in this little slice of paradise. Above and beyond!

Family Vacation 2025
We just completed a 2 week stay in this amazing home. Jimmy was an outstanding host from the time we booked, check-in and thru our stay. We enjoyed the beaches, golfing, sunset cruise,luau,kayaking, area restaurants but most of all our time at the house. The pool was perfect. We saw turtles and dolphins from the deck. And the sunsets were spectacular. Would 100% recommend this home for your Kauai vacation!!!!
