Modern Ocean Views with AC
Beautiful place with a great view of the water. This is my first trip involving a flight and first time going to Kauai. The experience was great and this place was a contributor to my great experience. It had just the right amount of space for me and my girlfriend. We loved this place and just how much there was to do.

Jewel of the Pacific. Oceanfront condo at Sealodge
Can’t beat the views, central location & aloha at Cash’s place. Waking up to sunrise each morning was a dream. Cozy and comfortable for a long weekend.

*Ocean and Mountain Views!* | Lush Hawaiian Oasis
This is hands down one of the most beautiful places. The room was super spacious, way more than the pictures show, the view is just incredible even better than pictures can do justice! The room is a bit of a walk if you don’t get a golf cart ride, but well worth it for the views. Parking gets full rather quickly, but the resort and valet staff take care of it. Overall very happy with the place and would definitely rebook if (hopefully) when I’m back to Princeville!

Comfortable Hale on the north shore
We only stayed one night at Evans’ but really wished we had more time. The house is beautiful and surrounded by trees creating rainforest vibes! The whole house was clean and very comfortable. All communication and check-in was very smooth. We could also spend a little time with Evans before checking out and had a lovely conversation together. Evans went above and beyond to make us feel right at home.

Hale Luya-Ocean front, beach path, sunset views
I was really pleased with Cari's willingness to go above and beyond to accommodate a couple of special requests we had. She could have just said no, but she helped make it work. Thank you. The place is really nice. I especially liked that the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. And also lots of nice beach toys. Great place. I would happily come back again.

Big Ocean Views, Pool, KING bed, AC, WiFi, 132
Tom’s updated room was perfect for us. The walk-in shower, a/c, counter space, and two mini fridges were great. The parking pass was conveniently located on the counter in the room. We loved being close to the ocean, pool, tiki bar, and grilling area. We were always able to find a lounge chair on the beach and pool. People walked regularly on the sidewalk in front of us, but we expected that and felt far enough away. The landscaping at the resort was beautiful and many of the plants were labeled. The plants around our room provided privacy by the side window and even the patio area. We took advantage of the water bottle re-fill station by the front desk in the lobby, as well as Coconut Marketplace, which was steps away, for their restaurants, shops, and ABC store. We would not hesitate to recommend this Airbnb to family and friends.

Beachfront home rentals with a pool

New! Poipu Kapili: Ocean Views; New Central Air
Such a beautiful place the enjoy Kauai. Well equipped with everything we needed to head to the beach or stay in to grill. The pool was a perfect oasis to rest and plan the day. We took advantage of the pickle ball court as well! The placement of the condo was perfect to enjoy the ocean view, pool access, grill and the gate leading to walkways and the sunset view. We'll be back!

2BR Oceanfront | Patio | Pool |
Puu Poa did not disappoint! The condo was spacious with great views of the ocean.

Sea and Sky Kauai, an Oceanfront Penthouse
Great view and beautifully decorated place! Had everything we needed and more. Diana was an incredible host! Would recommend and would stay again!!

Upscale Luxury - 2 Master Suites
My fiancée and I stayed here while exploring Kauai and it’s by far our favorite airbnb! It’s always a great feeling when the airbnb is even nicer than the photos. We loved drinking our morning coffee and walking outside to enjoy one of the best views Kauai has to offer. The airbnb is in a great location and was clean, quiet and relaxing. It’s close to beaches, shops, restaurants and hiking trails - which we enjoyed everyday. We explored the entire island and Princeville is by far our favorite area. We will definitely stay here again!

Ocean View, Beachfront Townhouse 2bd/2ba/2 lanai
Vicky was incredibly helpful before we arrived and during our stay. Her area recommendations were spot on and super helpful. She helped us find a few hidden gems in the area, and reinforced an idea we already had on our list of things to do. She handled a hiccup on the first day with quick communication, grace and kindness. The condo unit is exactly as described, in perfect shape, has all that we needed and more. Super convenient to use the beach chairs and boogie boards and condo unit provides beach towels- all to make the experience easier for travelers. We appreciated the oceanfront location, sound of the waves, views, proximity to snorkeling / lifeguarded beach at the park right next door. The location also makes an easy drive both north to Hanalei Bay and south/west to poipu and or Waimea canyon. Instructions for the house were perfect and spot on. We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. When we do, we will absolutely stay here again.

Unique Oceanfront Condo with AC
Fantastic. Views are amazing. AC is slow but eventually gets there. Nice to have that. We saw many turtles swimming in the water from the balcony. Also saw dolphins and whales! Can't beat it. We loved that they didn't require starting the dishwasher or towels upon check out, but we did anyway.

Kauai Sunrise Central ON the Beach!
Michelle's place is in a perfect location near the airport and in between Hanalei to the North and Waimea to the Southwest. Walkable to the local Safeway and several restaurants and food trucks. We especially loved hearing the ocean waves 24/7 and watching the sunrise from the balcony every morning. The amenities, including the Washer/Dryer, are topnotch so don't be afraid to pack light. Michelle was easy to contact and very friendly. Would absolutely book again.

Poipu Sands Beach Villa
The space was exactly as described, and better maintained than your average airbnb spot. The patio provides a satisfying ocean breeze while the indoor portable A/C units catch up. The location was also great for walks along the shoreline, with <5 minutes drive to spots in poipu. Will definitely be back again if we're in the area.

Kimsey Beach House TVNC#5010 TA#060-903-8336-01
Hands down our best Airbnb experience ever, the house is better than the photos, was clean, comfortable and right on a beach with a wonderfully well kept and large yard. It was a pleasure to come back to it each day after exploring the island. That said, what made the trip exceptional was the host, Kendall was a pleasure to interact with, always responsive and super helpful regarding the house and the area, made several recommendations and even called local resources to confirm that certain parks were open or closed during our stay. We can highly recommend staying here, no regrets.

Breathtaking oceanfront views walk to beach condo
My wife and I enjoyed staying at this condo. We have stayed at Hanalei Bay Resort in the past and enjoy the natural beauty and location of the complex itself. This lower level unit has amazing views, a great lanai, and is furnished with almost all the things you would hope to have. A boogie board would have been an added bonus. The only thing I think others may want to know before renting this unit is that there is a door that passes through to another unit next door. The door was closed for our stay, but we could hear the neighbors comings and goings and conversations very clearly. Fortunately, during our stay, the neighbors were considerate of this and it wasn't much of an issue. Overall I would highly consider renting this unit again.

Your own private oceanview Cottage 16 C
It’s a clean and spacious for 4 adults, and a nice location- walking distance to the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked with appliances for what we need. Also plenty of beach towels and beach chairs, inflatable tubes. My daughter loved sleeping with the sound of beach waves. Susanne responded to my questions quickly and kindly.

Blissful Beachfront Condo! (2BR)
David was very prompt in his responses and his condo was pristine and very clean! It was very neatly maintained and our stay was very comfortable! Best part of our stay was to enjoy family family early morning sitting outside and enjoy the beach waves and beautiful view! The condo is also located next to Coconut market places and local shopping areas so all the eating joints and restaurants, safeway are within walking reach! I really love my stay at Davids place and would definitely come here again ......

Penthouse Luxury Oceanfront, Third Floor
LaniKai #131 is absolutely beautiful. A lovely condo that is very private (only about 18 units total) we felt right at home & although there were others around. A lot of the time we had the pool or community areas to ourselves. The coconut marketplace was walkable (maybe a block) & you could do shopping, pick up basics from the ABC store or grab dinner at the restaurants. The beach was beautiful and had nice safe areas for kids. Many times we walked along the shore & path to Lava Lava for happy hour or breakfast. The condo itself was absolutely perfect. The finishes were beautiful and made us feel at home. I like to unpack and there were truly many storage areas & hooks, in the bedrooms and bathrooms that were very thoughtful for guests. & the whole home A/C was much appreciated since we come from a cooler climate. There were also many outlets that made for easy charging of electronics. & we loved the seating in the main room for everyone to spread out. We definitely plan to return!!

Oceanfront Harmony- 4 Bds On the Beach! TVNC 4247
Enjoyed the most mellow and relaxing vacation with my adult children. We walked daily on the great pathway and took in the blue ocean and the peaceful setting. The neighborhood was quiet and what I expected. We enjoyed eating at all the wonderful local places within a casual 20 minute walk. It was rainy this time of the year so sometime we just stayed and chilled in the awesome living room. The house is old so it has its charms but it felt like going to a beach house. There are plenty of windows and we slept with them open and it was very windy at night so we didn’t miss the a/c at all. We are from the Pacific Northwest, my son said he was surprised that 72 degrees could feel so cold and it was funny to see him wear his puffy jacket at times. Anyone staying here in the spring should probably bring a jacket because the wind and moisture can make it feel a lot colder than it should be due to being right next to the ocean. This is an excellent location overall.

OCEANFRONT WESTSIDE (TVRNCU-1094)
Loved this quiet location right across from the beach. The hosts were super friendly and provided us with everything we needed. The house itself is really spacious with a great lanai. Super comfortable and would definitely stay here again.

Hideaway Cove 2 Bedroom with Ocean View
We had a very enjoyable stay and loved staying at Taejo's place. And appreciate host/owner's response to updating photos for the view and living room.
