Information about Living in Poipu

Featuring high-end shopping and luxurious surroundings, Poipu and its population of just over 1,000 residents enjoy upscale island living on the southern portion of Kauai. The town of Poipu was built around a cluster or premium hotels and resorts and has since been joined by a major shopping center, the Poipu Shopping Village. Residents of Poipu real estate homes or condominiums for sale enjoy the laid-back atmosphere and pleasant amenities such as free weekend Polynesian dance revues in the shopping center. Another local favorite is the luau centers located on the edge of Poipu, each one offering live entertainment and delicious Hawaiian fare.

Voted as 2004’s Best Beach in America, Poipu Beach Park is considered one of the safest in Hawaii, with a lifeguard on duty seven days a week during all light hours. In addition to Poipu, Baby Beach, Brennecke’s Beach, Lawai Beach, Mahaulepu Beach, Poipu Beach, and Shipwreck’s Beach all attract beachgoers looking for unique views, uncluttered sand, and pristine water. Swimming, boogie boarding, surfing, kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving are all found along the coastline. Another popular Poipu activity is deep-sea fishing.

Those who choose not to participate in water sports can enjoy local hiking, surfing, mountain biking, horseback riding, and ATV tours. A variety of coastal cruises and helicopter tours provide excellent aerial views of the beauty surrounding Poipu. Golfers also have a variety of courses to choose from just a few minutes away. With two 18-hole championship courses designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr., Poipu offers some of the finest golf in Hawaii. Although lavish and luxurious, the courses feature attractive green fees, packages, and special discounts throughout the year for golfers who play multiple rounds or book afternoon tee times. Other local attractions include the Spouting Horn, National Tropical Botanical Gardens, Koloa Heritage Trail, and Moir Gardens.
