Castle at Makahuena at Poipu

After reading some previous renters stories, our family was concerned for maintenance and noise issues. As well as condo cleanliness, and other issues. We contacted staff who were great with communication regarding our concerns. They answered all our questions. We arrived and everything that was stated on our booking page more than met our expectations. Our ocean view condo was amazing and we made a trip of a lifetime! We will definitely rebook in the future, mahalo!

The condo was close to the beach. You have to walk about 15 mins. The bed was a little hard, no AC and they didn’t have any spices in the kitchen which I felt was standard amenity. The cost for groceries is already high so any little thing left for use would have been great. With no AC, the master bedroom was left pretty hot at all times.

Construction starts at 6am weekdays and weekends. Dirt and dust everywhere and washer/dryer broken can’t even go on the balcony to enjoy the construction aka ocean views. Not sure why it wasn’t included information when we booked. It was a huge disappointment.

We booked last minute for an extended stay in Kauai. The condo was very comfortable with plenty room for everyone. the only drawback was the Lani was under repair and we were not allowed to use. I would also add a floor fan for the master bedroom. the management company was amazing with help checking in and out will definitely stay again.

Property is updated and need remodeling. There was issues with the toilet and dryer was not working properly. The place does not look like the pictures on the website.

We stayed in unit 4303. For starters, everything except the microwave oven is old. The view is totally interrupted by the construction site between the unit and the ocean. To make matters worse, the sliding glass door & windows had so much dirt caked on them that it looked like they hadn't been cleaned in years. I tried to clean the slider 3 times before it was moderately clean. They were filthy! Additionally, The way they blocked off the patio looks terrible. The toilets are loose. The staircase flooring creaks and cracks really loud. The lighting is dim. The unit is way away from the water. The mattresses are really old, lumpy, and super stiff. The paint on the shower pan is peeling off and looks terrible. The bathrooms are right out of the 70's....old & tired!

Terrible!! My husband is a disabled vet. NO where did it say it was not ADA approved ! Smelled bad, no beach chairs, not even salt and pepper in the house. Forget cooking unless you want to buy everything down to spices. What use is the kitchen. No window covering on a few windows and they were at park I g lot level where anyone could see inside. The showers were horrible, dirty. The cabinets where literally falling apart. The liane was not usable. And they didn’t say a thing until the final payment was due. What use is an “ocean view” if you can’t sit out on the liane and enjoy it. Just looking out a window. DO NOT waste your money. The unit next door was under construction. The entire day was saws and hammers all day long. It was insulting to even think they wanted an outrageous amount of money for this unit. Disgusting

Funky door lock. Does not operate like most. Had to get help to open door the first time. Overall okay, but interior needs additional lighting - you must open all blinds and curtains to have enough lighting inside.

Apartment 4204. Great location, beds were comfortable, but no direct light in second bedroom. The second bedroom was like a cave even in the middle of the day. Air conditioning struggled to cool the place. No air conditioning in bedrooms. Shower in second bedroom didn’t work. Looks like it had been disabled by owners. Sliding doors wouldn’t lock so you had to take all important belongings with your when you went out. TV and entertainment system didn’t work. Definitely give this place a wide berth.
