This is the best of Hawaii
This is how you spell vacation! This vacation home is well cared for, well appointed, and in a perfect location. Tom is a gracious and caring host with local insight and much aloha for his guests. The location couldn't be more ideal. Falling asleep to the sound of surf or taking an early morning dip in your backyard ocean transports you to the relaxed feel of Kauai. Swimming and snorkeling is out your back door, as are the sea turtles. Surfing is a short walk away. Shopping and dining is a walk or short drive away. The Island has much to offer and except for the north shore, the drive everywhere is very manageable. The national gardens are close by and a hike in the Grand Canyon of the Pacific should not be missed. In the end, you just don't want to leave! I guess we need to come back.

Amazing
The Beach House was immaculate and organized with everything in its specific spot. The multitude of windows kept the home very cool, and breezy. Words (even pictures) cannot express the sound of the ocean less than 30 feet away, the smell of the plumeria, or the brilliance of the 7 rainbows we saw over 4 days. Walk to the market place and dinner choices, Farmers market is close by also. The Owner Tom is a great host, taking care of everything we needed and checking in after a day to ensure a pleasant vacation! We cannot wait to come back!

The Beach House, Poipu, Kaua'i
I have visited the Hawaiian islands over 70 times and there is absolutely nowhere I would stay on Kaua'i other than this wonderful house. It's the sound of the waves when going to bed, the ambiance, the really top quality configuration of the house and the outside deck for breakfast and watching the surfers. I cannot recommend it highly enough - it is a M U S T. Paula Hammack

Beautiful "Peace" of Paradise
We enjoyed the Beach House very much. The house is top of the line, immaculate, and a great view. Our only wish was that we could stay longer. We were there during the Kona Winds (we heard called) so the cove next to the house was out of our league for swimming and snorkeling but there is a great beach walking distant as well as restaurants and shops. (quick drive). The owner Tom is great to work with. Thank you Tom!

Can’t wait to return!
We spent a week at The Beach House - Kauai for a much needed vacation. Tom, the owner, could not have been a more gracious host, and the house far exceeded our expectations. We could sit there for hours, watching the ever-changing ocean, sky, surfers and sea turtles. The sunrises and sunsets were absolutely amazing. The house is comfortable, exceptionally clean, and private. The sound of the ocean and the sweet tropical breezes flow through the house. It’s a wonderful place to just hang out. The beds are very comfortable; combined with the sound of the surf, we enjoyed a great night’s sleep every night. The location affords a choice of beaches to walk to, all with snorkling opportunities. Shopping and restaurants are nearby, so you never have to leave the area if you don’t want to. The location, the house, the host — all great. Mahalo, Tom. We look forward to seeing you again.

Couldn't be any better!
We stayed at Tom's house for a week at the end of 2019 into the New Year. The house was perfect - clean, relaxing, comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. Tom checked in several times to make sure that we were comfortable. The location can't be beat within walking distance to the smaller beaches, snorkeling right outside your door, etc. The wall of doors that opens right onto the ocean is unbelievable. We enjoyed just relaxing at home watching the ocean and the sea life! We will be back 100%!

A Magical Place to Stay
Kauai is a magical place by itself but staying at The Beach House took it a whole other level. Our family of five spent 10 days in this amazing home and it will be a trip that's hard to beat (unless we come back and stay again). Tom is a very gracious host that takes tremendous pride in his home --- and it shows. This isn't an average vacation rental that caters to the masses. Instead, Tom has selected premium touches, appliances and conveniences that make staying here so much more enjoyable. He truly cares about making everything perfect for his guests. And, of course, the location is spectacular. Seeing and hearing the ocean yards away melts away any stress that we brought from the mainland. Plus being able to walk to the local restaurants and shops was so convenient...we did this almost daily. The property is close by many beach choices that offer something for everyone such as Baby Beach, great snorkeling, and our favorite, Kiahuna Beach. We highly recommend The Beach House and booking with Tom. He's a wonderful person and we feel like we have a trusted friend in Koloa now as part of our extended Ohana.

Picture perfect
"Best vacation ever" (quote from every single family member). Words can't describe the views from inside and outside this house. Picture perfect sunrises and sunsets, from the living room to the carport. One of the best features (kids' fav) was the hot water outdoor (open) shower and being able to rinse off while looking at the ocean, seeing the many turtles that feed next to the seawall and hearing the waves.The entire house has recently been renovated and appliances are all new and functional. We love having a washer/dryer available (less packing and less laundry to do when returning home). Tom is an amazing host and went out of his way to make our vacation special/memorable. The Beach House is a 5-10 min walk for unforgettable sunsets. There are too many positive attributes to name, can't think of any outstanding negatives. While "at home," leave the sliding doors/screens open during the day to enjoy the breeze and ocean sounds (bugs will stay outside or go back out quickly during the day). 8-9 turtles came to visit and feed almost every afternoon. Oceanfront house with beaches just a 5 minute walk away. Perfect for those seeking R&R and spectacular views with amenities from home. Not recommended for those seeking an all-inclusive resort experience.

Last Hurrah
We have just retuned back home after what can only be described as a long, absolute amazing and unforgettable holiday. Just under 7 weeks in total, visiting and spending time at some incredible places in the World. Having started at Honolulu and then spending a week at Kona, we caught a flight to the French Polynesia, spending time in Tahiti, Bora Bora, Mo'orea, Raiatea, some spectacular oceans and views. We retuned back to Hawaii and spent our final week in Kauai. I can safely say, not only did we find Island of Kauai unbelievably beautiful but the Beach House we stopped in was also spectacular. The views of the ocean, the noise of the sea, the cool breeze flowing through the house, were just splendid. Turtles outside, what a sight and no more than a minute walk, if that, you come to a sandy beach, small enough to be private (so to say) and big enough to enjoy. Tom, the owner, what a great guy. He was so welcoming, accommodated to all our needs, the house was immaculately clean, and this in all fairness is an understatement, it was sparkling. Seeing is believing. Abundance of towels, beach towels, probably the most comfortable beds we slept in during our travels, the furniture was of a very high standard along with the appliances which you can see were the best that money can buy. No expense sparred for sure. Tom, well, i can only say that he is a very caring, kind and passionate man. Went over and beyond to ensure our stay was pleasant. It was a great ending to a wonderful and unforgettable holiday. Would highly recommend Tom and The Beach House.

Retirement Trip
My husband and I along with my sister and her husband stayed at this property. It was like you were on the ocean. It was a beautiful property. It was convenient to restaurants and shopping. We were within walking distance of a nice plaza to eat and shop. The house had nice amenities and the beds were comfortable to sleep in. The house was very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay here. The owner was easy to work with. I would highly suggest this property.

The Beach House is Amazing!
Amazing, simply amazing! The Beach House was the perfect place for us. It is newly renovated, spotless, spacious, and perfectly located. There are two large double sliding doors leading to the oceanfront lanai with a spectacular view of the ocean and when opened a wonderful breeze blows across the living room. It is only a 2-5 minute walk to some of the best snorkeling on the island. Shops, restaurants, surfing and various beaches are just 5-10 minutes away. We loved our hikes to the Waimea Canyon, Heritage Trail and Kapalua, our surfing lessons and a sailing trip up around the Napali coast (absolutely gorgeous!) However, some of our favorite things were right there at Tom’s Beach House, reading under the coconut tree, watching the turtles, relaxing on the lanai and having family dinner's at home. This was my first time to Kaua’i and as the week went by, I appreciated more and more the location of The Beach House and how special it is. Tom is an awesome host; he takes great pride and joy in sharing his home with others. He is always available for questions and help. I highly recommend staying here and I can’t wait to return!!

A Slice of Paradise!
This beachfront house was an absolute gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility that our entire family enjoyed. From the moment we stepped foot onto the property, we were greeted by the mesmerizing sights and sounds of the ocean, creating an ambiance that is nothing short of magical. The open-concept layout allows for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with large sliding doors that frame breathtaking views. Watching the turtles and the surfers from the porch became our family’s daily routine. The amenities were top-notch, and everyone having their own bathroom was a huge bonus. Tom was a great host, and you could see the love he has for this beautiful home. We highly recommend and would love to come back soon and stay here again and again.

A Fabulous Two Weeks!
My family spent 2 weeks in the Beach House during August 2024. The home is pristinely clean and well-cared-for. The owner was friendly and helpful. We watched up to 8 sea turtles at a time feed on mossy rocks from the deck. Snorkeling is accessible in front of the home. We enjoyed the beautiful location, sunsets, and wildlife all from the gorgeous property. Restaurants, grocery, shopping, other adventures are within easy driving. We had a great time and hope to return in the future. Mahola!

Please call me, Tom Stirling (owner) for more information about our beautiful Beach House at 808-755-5115. The Beach House is an oceanfront home, located on the beautiful sunny south shore of Kaua'i. It is literally 30 feet from the water’s edge. Watch the sun set every evening on the horizon, illuminating the clouds and the sky into brilliant patterns and hues. The sea turtles swim constantly at water’s edge, and the surfers perform defiant maneuvers on the blue breaking waves beyond. The house is open and Hawaiian Style and spotlessly clean.
