    We stayed here during March 2007 on a Marriott promotion. We had no intentions of purchasing however enjoyed it so much that we ended up buying. Nice units although avoid the ones that overlook the parking lot. Lovely pool area, fantastic beach. Regular activities for kids. The Starbucks on site is a great plus!

    We stayed here at the end of January. This is the newest hotel in Poipu. It is beautiful and serene. We were on a promotion in a 2 bedroom 2 bath unit. These rooms are brand new and beautifully furnished. We only stay at very nice hotels and this one definitely qualifies. Great for families due to the Koi feeding, kids programs, and beach. The beach is rated as one of the best in the world by Travel Channel (especially for kids). We loved it so much that we bought a resale unit at Ko Olina so we can trade it.

    Stayed 2 weeks at Waiohai and 2 weeks at Marriott Maui Ocean Club in 2005. Waiohai wins handdown for friendly staff, amenities,relaxing atmosphere. Occupied Hale 2 fourth floor with great view of grounds and tangential ocean view. I am trying to spend a month there by trading Ocean Pointe for Waiohai. Any of you Florida owners interested in coming to Hawaii?

    We spent X-Mas week at this marvelous resort and can't wait to get back! Beautifully landscaped with waterfalls and lagoons...complete with swan. Beach frontage makes for ideal snorkelling, swimming, or a lazy day in the sun. We found the rooms extremely soundproof, fur- nished for an exceptionally comfortable night's sleep. Truly worthy of it's five star rating.

    We love it so much that we are going to sell back our Marriott Desert Springs Villas II (2 weeks) in Palm Desert California for Waiohai.

    If you go, just don't let them put you into a unit overlooking the parking lot. Stand firm (but friendly) and wait until what you want opens up.

    And be sure to drink a Polynesian Paralyzer only when you have no where else to go. Eeee Haa.

    Stayed in Hale 1 ocean view on 3rd floor. Great room. Room was great. Staff was very friendly. Resturant had excellent food at a reasonable cost.

    They had wireless internet in the common areas for free, so checking email or surfing the web was easy. There are also a couple of community laptops.

    The fitness room is well equiped.

    I like the fact that this resort is big enough to have the amenities but small enough to get to know some of the staff and not get lost.

    We're glad we purchased and can't wait to return.

    Just returned (December '04) and absolutely loved this property. If you're going to Kauai this is the place to stay if you want to relax and enjoy the sun and beach. We stayed in Hale 1 and it was absolutely the best building on the property. Be careful when rooms are assigned as it is quite possible that your "view" may be a combination parking lot/mountain. The staff are very nice and we were never pressured into a timeshare presentation and didn't go on one!

    This was also a location that my 5 year old loved as the pool is shallow (4 ft. max.) and multi-leveled. Brick Oven Pizza is about 20 minutes away and fantastic. Much better than the pizza place in Koloa and worth the drive.

    One final note: the beach is perfect for kids and adults alike. Enjoy!!!

    Exchange (NCV PLT) stay Oct 1-8, 2004. Stayed in Hale 8, villa 306, with view of pool complex/gardens and tangential ocean view from balcony. Outstanding staff; the open house cart (by the beach) concierge was memorable. Villa was ready by 1 pm. Beautiful grounds. Conveniently located to beach. Fair/good snorkeling during our stay. Quiet units. Comfortable beds. Did not try sofa beds. Fully stocked kitchens (less food of course :-) ) . Hale 1 and 8 closest to beach. Marketplace items reasonable compared to local stores. Did not try restaurant.

    Will definitely return again.

    We have visited this resort at least six times and love it every time we go. What we love is the size of the resort. It is not one of those huge get lost resorts, instead it is perfect and very safe. The resort offers all normal amenities and the units are very roomy.

    Stayed a week in June. Perfect weather, best beach, great pools, very large units with big bedrooms, one on each side of living space. Large balcony. Stayed oceanfront (Hale 8) which was fantastic! Loved going to sleep and waking up to the sound of the waves. Guests leave beach chairs, mats, etc. for others to use after them so didn't need to buy a thing except food, drink & sunscreen. Will definitely return.
