The pros about this property: the views were gorgeous, just as pictured on the website. The condo was well equipped and appeared clean. The location and surrounding community are lovely.The cons: the condo gets hot. The two bedroom AC units help keep the bedrooms cool. When you check in, the two bedroom AC units are off and all the shades are open so the unit is hot. My daughter got a lot of bites sleeping in the bed near the window of the upstairs bedroom. This is probably the only reason I would have reservations about staying here again. The aluminum vent from the dryer in the downstairs bathroom was torn open so the dryer vented into the hot, humid downstairs bathroom. I told management about it when we left because we did not want to be bothered with repairs during our 3 night stay.On our last night, a neighbor yelled at my husband claiming that he was up all night due to the noises we made. We were out for most days and tried our best to follow the rules. When my husband tried to ask him questions, he said we better be quiet or he would call security/police. We were shocked by the interaction, and I informed management about it after our stay. The only thing we did at night was run the washer and dryer (due to the vent/heat issue). I don’t know if the machines make excessive noise for neighbors. Finally, the cleaning fee is high when we are expected to empty the trash/recycling, and the public containers are not easy to find on the outdoor property.

We were moved to this unit for our final three nights from our selected unit due to a roofing project. While we appreciated the rental companies accomodation, the view and privacy offered at this unit did not compare favorably with our chosen unit. Also, an upstairs master bedroom didn't bode well for sleeping in the heat, even with multiple fans. All in all the rental company did it's best to make the most of an unfortunate situation.

I have been to Kauai 4 times in the last 4 years. I can say with certainty this is the best condo we have rented on the Island! The owner Toni was very communicative and made sure everything was great. The condo is nicely appointed and has everything you could need for a Hawaiian vacation. All you need to pack is your clothes. The beds were very comfortable and the Tradewinds kept the condo very comfortable even though it was August. Finally the views, OMG the pictures she has don't do it justice! It was like looking at a screen saver every morning waking up with a coffee and every evening watching the sun set off of the deck! Highly recommend this condo!

Wow! I cannot say enough good things about this property. The view was gorgeous! So much so that we rushed home every evening to make sunset. The AC's were perfectly chilly in the bedrooms but most nights we fell asleep to ocean waves in the living room. The condo was stocked with more than what you need to have a comfortable stay! The beach and pool were also amazing! Will 100% be back!

This would be our 2nd time visiting Kauai and 2nd time staying in this condo complex and we just absolutely LOVE everything about it! From the location, to the views, to the epic beaches within walking distance this is our happy place. The whole property is so well taken care of and ideal for our families needs for an epic vacation.

This was a perfect location for us, a relatively quiet property with beautiful cliffside views and easy access to the small beach. We spent 10 days on the island and never felt a need to go farther than just a few miles down the road to access great beaches, fun hikes, good food, etc., but it was also great just to sip coffee/drinks while watching the ocean.

We had a wonderful time for our visit in late July/early August. We stayed a week at this property and it was perfect for our family of 5 (kids 17, 14, 11). The company was amazing to work with - communicated extremely well and were very prompt with all communications (even when we had a tsunami warning the day of our arrival!). The condo is just as described - clean and comfortable. It was not a great place to spend a late afternoon as the living area and kitchen get very hot during the day. The AC units in the bedrooms are a game changer and worked great for sleeping. Perfect spot if you plan on being out all day and home in the evenings during a summer visit. We also loved the private beach access and the beautiful bluff to watch the sunset. We would definitely stay here again!

Started off bad with the upstairs room being over 90 degrees. Would have been nice for the property management company to open some windows and turn on fans prior to us arriving. Also the BBQ that is listed is .2 miles from the condo and is down 100+ ft so basically not useable. Thought the condo was going to be a good value but it was not. I wouldn’t stay here again due to the condo being in rough shape and the upstairs is unbearably hot even with the windows open all day and the daytime temp only getting into the mid 80s. All of the ceiling fans and floor fans need replaced and barely move much air.

Absolutely stunning. I couldn’t think of a more perfect place in paradise to take in the northern shore of Kauai. Great location to beaches, restaurants, grocery and more for both walking and driving. Sunsets for a lifetime, beautiful wildlife and clean amenities/grounds. Host was very informative, responsive and helpful both before and during our stay. Their management team was great. Nothing broke or was needed during our stay but I’m sure if it was an issue we couldn’t live without, they would remedy quickly and effectively. Until next time!

This is THE spot and this is the end of the island you NEED to be at! We spent a week here and could not have been more happy with our choice. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay great. Very well stocked and the beds were comfortable too. Had coffee in the am and cocktails at night on the very spacious patio to watch the sunrise and sunset each day. We had a family of three and were very comfortable here. Closet full of beach supplies and beach chairs to use, along with a cooler that was used daily on our adventures. A nice pool and hot tub to come back to at the end of each day was also a bonus. Air conditioners in each bedroom made for a very comfortable nights sleep as well. You really cant go wrong with this place, the views alone are worth every penny!! The grounds are very well manicured and much attention to detail. Having the pizza restaurant is also great for when your flight gets in late and you're exhausted, its just steps away. No need to stop at Walmart or Costco when you arrive, Foodland has everything you need and it's only a few miles down the road. Parking for the condo is super easy and right outside the front door. It was very quiet in this entire area which we appreciated as well. You can sit and watch surfers and paddle boarders right from your balcony and start your day off slow on island time. Don't hesitate on this one, your decision is easy, book your stay here and start making Kauai family memories!!

We enjoyed our time here. The view from the downstairs portion of the unit is stunning. The cabinets were stocked with dishes/utensils. The wifi was easy to connect to and reliable. The condo complex was well-maintained. Parking was located a very short walk from the unit and I never had issues finding a space. The location is good - a short walk to Hideaway Beach (and hideaway lookout, for those who prefer not to adventure down the surprisingly steep trail to get to the beach), short drive to the golf course, and a quick drive into Hanalei or nearby Kilauea. The area is peaceful. There is plenty of beach gear available in the upstairs closet. Also, the owners were transparent about ongoing construction in advance of our stay (the construction was far away from our unit). There were some opportunities for improvement. There was less air flow through the unit than I expected. This may have been partially due to the weather and time of year. The owners provided a generous number of fans - even with all on full blast and with the wind and rains that would come through, we had some difficulty bringing the temp down in the evenings. This affected the loft area more than downstairs. A/C would be a tremendous addition. The only other minor issue we had was related to bugs (earwigs and flying roaches) that somehow made their way in despite all obvious entry points closed. Not overwhelming by any means, but more than expected for a vacation rental.

Wonderful location, the views really are stunning. Other than that, this place just exists with the bare minimum to make money for Vacasa. For what they charge, we expected significantly more. Cleanliness was not a priority- take the actual piece of turd laying behind the plunger in the bathroom, for example. The giant cockroach, while potentially expected on the island, was also not something I expected to find in my hair one morning. Several dishes and utensils were not even remotely clean.Little effort has been put into this place in some time. There are scuffs all over the walls, and the outdoor cushions were dirty. Parts the inner property are falling apart or don't work. The main fridge/freezer had broken, so they put one in half the size that then took up room in the dining area, making it hard to move around.While the listing makes it clear there is no AC, what isn't clear is that there is NO AIRFLOW due to the front door of the home going straight out to an area that is blocked from any incoming wind. You do not get airflow from the ocean; it comes from the other way at this location (but you won't get any in the living area). The bedroom is kept comfortable with the AC unit that's in there.Overall, if this had been a mid-tier-priced stay, we would have been okay with some of this. But for the price, and that we really splurged for our honeymoon, this was a complete disappointment, and we will never rent anything that is Vacasa-owned again.

The overall impression was of a top quality holiday let with attractive furniture and decor. Kitchen very well equipped. We felt very comfortable there. Bedrooms on the small side but plenty of room in entrance area for suitcases. Bathrooms new and immaculately clean. The washing machine was a godsend as the flat got extremely hot, particularly the kitchen and dining area, and we needed to wash clothes and nightclothes daily. The fans helped a little but still very, very hot. The view from the flat was stunning and we enjoyed the geese who came to visit.

This is perhaps the best location and view in Kauai. The unit has a good floor plan and enough space for 3-4 people. As many reviews mention, the carpet and linoleum are stained and torn and need updating. Other than that, it is a wonderful place. If you keep curtains closed when windows are exposed by the sun, you can easily manage the temperature inside. Wonderful property management company as well!

The apartment was as advertised and quite comfortable. The upstairs bedroom was extremely hot on hot days but otherwise everything was functional and comfortable. The best thing was the location with close proximity walking to Hideaways Beach plus the trail down to the even closer private local beach. The pool was closed for construction most of our visit. Very nice but basic unit.
