General Information

What to expect: The luxuries of space, light, and fresh air—both inside and outside the units—reward guests at Castle Makahuena, a Condominium Resort at Poipu.
Amenity highlights: No sunrise, sunset, or whale passes unnoticed from this tip of Poipu Point overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean. At the edge of the bluff behind low, neat hedges, wooden benches provide front-row seating for the oceanic spectacle unfolding below—a blue-and-white musical of bass booms, rolling surf, and dancing spray.
Insider tip: Due to the rocky coast, there is no access to the beach. However, a mile west is famed Poipu Beach, considered one of America's best beaches. S-shaped, the beach's lower loop is protected by a man-made reef, so water is calm. The upper loop offers surfing/boogie boarding. In between, there's great snorkeling among lava rocks around a small sand islet. To the east is Shipwreck Beach for surfing and beach walking.
