The property is in a great location. Mainly just couples or newlyweds, not many families. The pool and ocean are steps away, which is awesome. Easy drives to various beaches or waterfalls. The Coconut Market was convenient but the grocery store is super expensive. Drive a mile down the road to the Safeway if you want better options and savings. The unit was good for our needs. The only issues were that the floor was pretty dirty with hair and grumbs not swept/mopped up (pretty gross), the sliding door is ridiculous to open/close, the pillows are horrible, and you can hear people through the walls easily or walking around above. Overall we enjoyed our time and would stay at this complex again.

This was a great location. You can’t see the ocean while laying in bed but you can from sitting on the bed or standing at the sliding glass back door. (You could also see the pool, hot tub and small tiki-type bar.) I would guess the ocean was maybe 150 yards away. Room was nice: king size bed, love seat, small table with 2 chairs, mini-fridge (no freezer, but got really cold), microwave, toaster, coffee maker and small sink. I think the TV was run with a Roku player. It seemed to have a subscription to Spectrum and you could log onto other sites with your own credentials. The grounds were well maintained and there was an ice machine 50’ away. The beach was only 20’ deep or so and had some incline to it but it ran as far as the eye could see to the north and south. The waves were high enough that I would not swim in it, but we saw several people swimming without issues.
We had a small service issue and they sent someone to fix it within a few hours. The only somewhat issue I had was not being able to feel like I understood the thermostat for the mini-split. The room stayed plenty cold, though, if I pushed enough buttons.
There are a couple of eating places as well as an excursion place right off the parking lot. The property backed up to Coconut Marketplace with several stores, a few restaurants and a few “events” (hula show, farmer’s market, etc) scheduled. We ate at a Chicken N Barrel a few times and got shaved ice a couple of times.

Over all the property was good. the condo inside could use new curtains, new mattress on bed that is more comfortable, was too soft. especially if you have a bad back. The floor should have been scrubbed better. When we dropped something on the floor near the sink, and then cleaned it up the paper towel was really dirty, so therefore the floors were not cleaned properly. Had to call Vacassa to get a maintenance guy to fix the sliding glass door the first day, then it was fine. the furniture outside was nice but too hard to sit on so therefore we had to sit on pillows.

Great central location! Grounds were immaculately kept and right next to the ocean. Immediate access to shopping and restaurants. Condo was clean and well kept with personalized welcome and gifts. Only minor problems we had were not having access to laundry and our key locker wouldn’t open properly. Otherwise it was perfect!

This place worked perfectly in conjunction with another 2-bedroom condo our family had with full kitchen, laundry and such. This one has microwave and fridge only. Great property, right on the ocean. Amazing sunrises and near shopping and restaurant amenities. They also took great care of us when we called with a request. Thank you!!

We loved that the condo was near the beach for nightly sunsets. The condo was simply perfect for our needs. It was spotless and included lots of pots, pans & beach chairs, etc. We simply had the best time and loved how close we were to the pool. My only complaint is that the management company would not allow VRBO guest to use the laundromat. We walked to places to eat & purchase groceries.

This was a very expensive rental. It was a great location and view. I didn’t realize that there was no elevator so my daughter who is over five months pregnant and me at age 74 were faced with carrying very heavy suitcases. Laundry services were not available as a VRBO guest. Also, there was no freezer to keep ice or anything frozen. It was a magical place by the sea and although we didn’t see the parking space until the end of our stay it was very helpful when we were leaving. The apartment was clean and the lanai was great.

What a great apartment and lovely resort. The unit was perfect for three people with a separate bedroom, separate access to bathroom and balcony from both bedroom and living room with beautiful view of pool and ocean from the large Lenai. Great hottub and good internet. Kitchen was well stocked and we were able to fix all meals during our stay in it. Aircon worked well. Although a bit pricey, like everything else on Kauai, it was by far the best deal I could find anywhere on the island and I looked over the course of 8 months on every imagineable website. Checkin and out were incredibly easy. My only very minor complaint was that despite booking for three people the sofa bed was not prepared. We did not need to contact the property manager, but were required to rate this to submit review thus gave an intermediate (neutral) rating. In any case, I highly recommend this lovely apartment to anyone going to Kauai with a party of up to four people. I would definitely stay there again.

I have never been to Kauai and researched several possible locations to stay. When I saw all the reviews on this property, I was sold. This property did not disappoint. It is a large, comfortable, clean and has everything you will need (except beach equipment). The bed is super comfortable. You can enjoy the amazing view from the lanai, which is accessible from the bedroom and the living room. Not only that, the location itself is centrally located to either side of the island, and close to the airport. There are nice shops and restaurants within walking distance and we enjoyed them. As well there is a store for groceries or anything else you might need.
The resort itself is beautiful. We walked on the beach, hung out at the pool after a day of excursions or exploring the island. We sat and watched the sunset on one of the many lounge beach chairs around the beach and enjoyed a cocktail.
We most certainly will be back and we will book 308 again.

My beautiful wife and sister in law planned our beautiful 8 day vacay in amazing Kauai. From the studio condo just steps to the pool and ocean to all the memories made on the well planned excursions and events. The condo was perfect for our stay...restaurants, shopping, grocery store and centrally located for all the island 🏝 to enjoy. I highly recommend staying here and you too can see it all for yourself. Aloha and enjoy! 🤟🏼🤩

We spend a wonderful time in this cozy condo. Everything you need is within walking distance or within a short drive. The pool is nice and well-maintained. The ocean near the hotel was too strong for us to swim, but we wanted to explore the island and found many excellent calm beaches on the northern and south shores. Our favorite place to dine was Sushi Bushido (make reservation well in advance!) and Hukilau Lanai- their seafood is heavenly good! Some small minuses: hotel laundry is only for the hotel guests and not for vrbo visitors, but there is a nice and clean laundromat one block from the hotel. Also, there is no dishwashing machine in the unit (was not a problem for us). Overall, it was a wonderful vacation and we are looking forward to repeating it again in the future.

The property is beautiful and view from the deck is the best spot! I wish there was a freezer. The fridge is small college size so if you want to save money on food for a long stay it’s not ideal. There are grills you can use on the property so having no oven just the stove top was fine. We loved having a designated parking spot & security was very helpful if someone parked there. Lots of food options around, shop at Walmart or Target it’s the best prices.

We loved the central location (between the ocean and Coconut Marketplace). Coconut Marketplace has a specialty grocery/ABC store and several good eateries! Loved the lounge chairs on the beach and the covered beds at the pool.

Islander on the Beach is a great resort in a perfect location if you are planning to visit the East, South and West of Kauai. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and the on-site bar in the evenings. Easy walk to groceries, coffee, etc. Note that parking can be challenging if you come in late. The condo was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The beach chairs and towels were very appreciated. A couple things we found were missing and that could easily be added are a kettle to boil water and simple pantry items like salt/pepper. Also beware the water in the shower can get to a scalding hot temperature, hot enough that I burned my hand.

Overall I was very pleased with Unit 142. We did have issues with the sliding doors which are crucial; on the 3rd day a maintenance man was able to fix. No TV issues as some have mentioned. The unit was cute, clean and very convenient to the pool, beach and numerous restaurant options which is key since the `kitchen` is just a microwave, toaster, small frig, coffeemaker and blender. You do have use of the property grills so you are able to cook but we loved the restaurants that were all within walking distance. We loved having our morning coffee and evening cocktails on the lanai and there is a pool bar open at 3pm every day if you`re looking for that experience. I was pleasantly surprised by everything and would recommend for any couple looking for a central location and a great deal.
