“Better than we even expected”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2007

person found this review helpful

When we booked there was only one review. We did not know what to expect...the price was reasonable and it sounded nice. Everything was beyond our expectations. The room was very nice-super soft sheets and towels- clean- nice bathroom. Kathie and Lee even took the time to put a few things in the fridge for us.
Breakfast was always very tasty and plentiful, it was a great way to start the day.
The neighborhood has walkways throughout so you can reach several destinations (the beach, restaurants, other resorts)without ever walking on the road. Poipu was a great area with nice beaches.
Kathie and Lee were accomodating in many ways- we took surfboards they had the perfect spot in their garage for them - their were beach chairs and boogie boards we could use- beach towels-
We can't say enough about this B&B we would definitly stay there again. (wish we were still there! =)

“An absolute delight!”

When I booked two nights here, I wasn't quite sure what to expect since it's just opened fairly recently and there were no other guest reviews to refer to. But boy was I in for a treat! To begin with, Kathie and Lee are among the most wonderful hosts I've ever encountered at a B&B. I arrived somewhat late in the evening, and before I could step out of my car - they were both on the porch waiting to greet me. Their beautiful 2-story home is located in Poipu, which is very desirable because of its abundant sunshine. A roughly 5-minute walk takes you to Shipwreck Beach and some stunning coastal hiking.

Kathie has done a terrific job decorating the two guest suites and has thought of just about everything you could possibly need, and then some. The rooms both have private bath, microwave, small refrigerator, coffee/tea, eat-in table, etc. In addition, there is a TV with DVD player, and a huge library of DVDs in the common area. And then there's the gourmet breakfast consisting of abundant tropical fruit and a main dish. (Hopefully you'll be lucky enough to have Kathie's banana flambe french toast!)

My only regret about staying here is that I had only booked two nights. I definitely plan to go back.

Two things to note are (1) they are in the process of adding a swimming pool to the property, and when this is completed the current rates ($85-95) will go up, and (2) they don't currently accept credit cards, which will be an issue for some people. But my personal opinion is - this place is worth the minor inconvenience of having to mail a check!
