Good food - good people - good memories!

Poipu Inn is located on Kauai, the Garden Island of Hawaii, near the historic community of Koloa Town. Poipu also enjoys one of the best climates in Kauai boasting the most sunniest days on the island. We are located about 25 minutes from the International Airport in Lihue. Transfers from the airport can be arranged both to and from the airport and Rental cars are readily available there as well.

The Kauai Way of things:

"Bed and breakfast", as a general description, can be a very loosely applied term. We would like to take a moment to clarify how we do what we do here on the island.

First, you will be greeted by a staff that is definitely filled with the Spirit of Aloha. Poipu Inn caters especially to an organic Hawaiian experience, primarily due to our excellent location next to one of the top rated destinations on Kauai as well as our relationships with various local business's providing a custom fit for new travelers to Kauai as well as highly veteran travelers.

We welcome ALL travelers into our home! Come enjoy Kauai and make fond aloha memories and friends!

Check in / Check out times:

We ask that you please be in communication with us in advance regarding any special needs in regards to check-in times. The standard check-in policy is 3pm, which allows for us to have an appropriate opportunity to make your room completely ready after guests have checked out at 11am. We will make every effort to accommodate other check in and check out times if we can, please just communicate that in advance. Mahalo!

Breakfast:

Mornings are filled with the smell of coffee and excitement as we prepare a meal the for the days adventures. Poipu Inn can be a place where a couple might come to simply sit and relax the day away reading and cat napping each day; yet we are all a very active group and attract the same. Breakfast may include organic cereals, porage, toasts, muffins, Hawaiian POG, and fresh island fruits.

Kitchen & Food:

Our kitchen is "community" with "fridge benefits" and we welcome you to serve yourselves throughout the day as if this was your own home. We do also wish to ask that you please clean up after yourselves - "use a dish, clean a dish", as it helps keep a clean standard for the next guest.

Many guests choose to prepare dinners here at the inn themselves to offset the sometimes high cost of restaurants here on Kauai. It is not uncommon that the guests will create quality bonds with other guests during their stay and enjoy sharing and eating potluck styled evening meals as well as lively conversations about their stay here on Kauai.

There are refrigerators also in each room that may be used to keep guests food. As for the main fridge, we ask that the guests please communicate as to who's is who's and exercise a general respect for each other and that of the facilities.

Rooms:

We have two separate styles of rooms; the front rooms have Jacuzzi Hot tub baths and separate showers while the other rooms have standard bathroom arrangements. We continually try to upgrade our home with the best available amenities on the island, i.e. sheets (600 Thread count), towels and bathmats, mattresses (TempurPedic), pillows (Tommy Bahama) and such.

**If you are looking for top-shelf, first-class service and catering, you might want to consider staying at a full service hotel, but if a relaxed and casual atmosphere is what you are looking for, the Poipu Inn does the best it can to keep you comfortable and relaxed.

Rates:

Our rates range from $100 per night to $180 depending on the time of year and length of stay.

Please check the RESERVATIONS tab to view our current rates

We have custom packages from time to time for guests. If you have further questions, please do call me to discuss a package.

Cleaning Fees:

A cleaning fee may be attached to a room not to exceed $45 +tax per stay. Linen changes are not provided for stays less than 3 days, unless requested. Should you require linen changes, a $45 surcharge will be applied. Guests staying more than 3 days may have their room linens changed and towel service the 3rd day of their stay upon request.

** The staff at Poipu Inn does not otherwise enter guests rooms daily for cleaning unless requested. If you require any additional fresh linens or towels, we will be happy to provide them for you.

Privacy and Security:

Again, Poipu Inn staff will not enter guest rooms without guests permission or knowledge during your stay. Please maintain supervision of your valuables as we do not have room safes and will not be held responsible for lost or stolen items.

Smoking & Drinking:

Although smoking is permitted in designated areas, smoking is not allowed inside guests rooms. We invite and welcome you to enjoy a cocktail or glass of wine, we simply ask that our guests who decide to partake remain courteous and respectful to all our other guests concerning the consumption of alcohol.

Laundry Facilities:

We have an onsite laundry facility with each load requiring 5 quarters for the cycle. The dryers are available and also require quarters. Please remember to provide for your own detergent and softener needs.

General Noise:

We are located near a condominium neighborhood. We would therefore kindly ask that all of our guests show a neighborly respect as regards to noise. Most windows in Hawaii are always open for circulation and therefore noise travels and bounces around easily. We rarely have any issues of outside noise, and ask that a general 10pm "noise curfew" be somewhat respected.

Roosters:

The story goes that our noisy poultry came from early Polynesians and Europeans who brought chickens to Kauai. The Filipinos later brought the brightly colored fighting cocks, and viola!, the wild chickens. It is said that with Hurricane Iniki, the domestic chickens and fighting roosters were freed from their cages to roam and multiply.

The roosters in Kauai are annoying for most visitors as these cocky birds seem to have lost their wrist watches in the hurricane! They will call out to each other at ALL times of the day AND NIGHT to check in with each other from a distance. If you have a problem with the roosters, I recommend ear plugs ...
... or if all else fails ... Maui!   =)

Please, if at all possible, book your stay with Poipu Inn more than 30 days in advance. We will require a 50% deposit with is fully refundable outside of the thirty days. We charge a 25% fee for cancellations received within less than 30 days prior to arrival date.
