KEY Curation Notes

Four en-suite bedrooms plus a game room sleep up to 12 across a sprawling contemporary home in the exclusive Kukui'ula resort neighborhood. The primary suite has a king bed with an ensuite featuring a soaking tub and indoor-outdoor shower, while three additional bedrooms each offer their own en-suite bath and king or queen beds; a fourth room with twin-over-double bunks and a full pull-out sofa in the game room provides flexible sleeping capacity for larger groups.
Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass walls fully retract to create a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The lanai features a dramatic infinity-edge pool, separate hot tub, shaded outdoor living room, and alfresco dining for six, all framed by ocean and golf course views.
The chef-ready kitchen features an oversized island, premium appliances, a wine fridge, and a coffee station, with dining seating for ten at the adjacent table. This layout supports everything from casual family breakfasts to full-group dinners and is well-suited to groups that plan to cook or host a private chef.
Kukui'ula is a walkable, gated resort community with direct access to the Shops at Kukui'ula, multiple restaurants, and a farmers market. Poipu Beach Park is a short walk, Kiahuna Golf Club is nearby, and Spouting Horn, Old Koloa Town, Shipwreck Beach, and other south-shore attractions are a few minutes by car.
The estate-lot spacing and landscaping offer genuine privacy within Kukui'ula, though the adjacent property is under construction and may produce intermittent daytime noise during your stay. Extended stays are welcome in this multi-generational home; stays of 14 nights or longer include a mandatory mid-stay cleaning fee.

Reviews

Kenneth Tam

There are no words to describe how beautiful this property is from the high-quality appliances to the small design details. Had booked this to house our wedding party and it exceeded all of our expectations. The management team was onsite to help us and responsive to any questions we had. Couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our wedding. Would definitely recommend staying here.
