Wailua Bay View Reviews


We had a Great Stay at this location and it was the perfect home base for our trip to Kauai. Everything is as advertised and the balcony view and sound of the surf was amazing. The accommodations and rooms were updated and kitchen was very convenient for bringing in your own groceries. A/C was Great and kept it cool. Highly recommend.

This was our 3rd time renting this specific unit at WBV Condos. Steve and Tina have literally thought of EVERYTHING to make their place 100% equipped for the perfect stay. Every single thing I went looking for: specific items in the kitchen, coolers to take to the beach/on road trips, an umbrella for an unexpected rain shower that would have soaked us on our way to dinner, beach towels, travel cups for drinks, boogie boards, the printer for printing boarding passes (I know, I'm old!) and a couple things for work... even a great book to read for my partner... it's ALL there. I can't say enough great things about this place, and the way it's been set up to GUARANTEE that guests want for nothing. There is not a single thing I needed that I didn't find. To save some $$ I did more cooking on this 3rd trip, and honestly, I was astonished at how well appointed the kitchen was with fresh gourmet spices, oils, etc. I was able to make 3 incredible meals and not have to buy all those expensive items that I could never use up in an 8 day stay. I really appreciated that. This is a great place for couples. Quiet, comfortable and that view!! You feel like you are alone there, hardly ever seeing people in front of your unit. The beach is lightly used by local fisherman, and water sports enthusiasts. It's paradise! This trip I was so excited to watch sea turtles swimming in the ocean right below our lanai! That was probably THE highlight for me. Thank you Tina & Steve!

This condo was perfect for us. We had all the amenities of being home. The owners had everything you could ask for ready at the condo. Not only were we waking up to the view of the ocean but we literally stepped down and we were on the sand. I would highly recommend this place.

We had a wonderful stay. This unit is clean, comfy, well stocked and convenient for seeing all the sights. The lanai is great for watching the sunrise, surfers and even some turtles. The local manager Marvis was wonderful.

Comfortable, cozy, clean, and updated condo. The air conditioner in the bedroom kept the room super cold at night. Turned it off while we were gone during the day. View from balcony was amazing! The sound of the waves was so loud, but easy to fix that by closing the balcony doors. The kitchen had all the comforts of home available, although we only used it to make coffee. The only thing I would say to be careful about was the homeless population around the area (but probably the same no matter where you are on the island) although no problems on the actual condo property. Overall, it was a great condo and the owners were quick to respond when needed! Would stay again.

The beachfront location of this condo is great for watching the waves. Perfect location makes it easy to get to anywhere on the island. One drawback of the location of this condo was the road that was close and very busy and loud day and night. Check in and check out process was very quick and easy. I had noticed other reviews saying that the screen door was broken, unfortunately it was still broken for our visit. One of the beach chairs and a chair on the lanai was also broken. The condo was very clean but needs some attention and updating. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need. The pool was very cold, even on a hot day. Overall a great condo for the price.

The view from the slider was beautiful and the bed was reasonably comfortable. In general, the condo is "tired" and very dark. Even something simple as painting over the scratched door would have helped the overall aesthetics. Kitchen & bathroom cabinets are dark, furnishings are dark, poor lighting throughout except the bathroom. Theoretically the condo can accommodate 4 individuals. There was one towel rack that could barely hold towels for 2 and there were only 2 dining chairs. Dishware and utensils in the kitchen cabinets were unimpressive. One cabinet door refused to stay closed so you needed to be careful not to hit your head on the door. There was a throw cover over the sofa that made one wonder how dirty it might have been beneath; maybe it was supposed to keep the sofa clean, but it gave me a different impression. We could not find a telephone in the condo as mentioned in the description. Although it is probably beyond the owner's control, there is a very noisy rooster who crows even before sunrise and throughout dinnertime. By far this is not a terrible place, just not impressive in any good way. The photos looked much better. I probably would not stay here again. I just got the feeling that the owners were not very interested in making the condo a comfortable, vacation stay for the clients.

We loved staying in unit 104! The view from the lanai is beautiful; we really enjoyed sitting outside watching the waves (and the chickens!). The A/C in the bedroom was a plus, and the washer and dryer in the unit was really handy! Kitchen was stocked with basic cookware, and it was nice to have a dishwasher as well. Location is great too, right in the middle of things, but we never felt it was loud. Thank you for a wonderful introduction to Kauai!

What an incredible place and location! Having stayed at numerous VRBO properties over the years, we've encountered some with minimal "little" amenities like coffee, salt, and pepper. However, this place goes above and beyond, providing all those thoughtful touches that truly make your stay feel like home. Additionally, the inclusion of significant items such as beach chairs, towels, hiking poles, and more adds to the overall convenience. The highlight, undoubtedly, is the breathtaking view. The soothing sound of the waves and the unparalleled sunrise create an unforgettable atmosphere. The location couldn't be more perfect—just the right distance from the airport, with nearby shops and food options, yet peacefully situated away from the bustling part of town. We can confidently say we'll be back for another visit. Karen & Scott

We really enjoyed the condo as a base to see the Island, we did a great self guided car tour of Waimea Canyon. We also visited Poipu beach and appreciated the beach at the condo as it’s not a crowded madhouse like Poipu. We enjoyed the little bakery across the street and the Olympic restaurant in town. The kitchen was well appointed and the bed and pillows comfy. The beach chairs and umbrella were great!

Our stay at the Kauai condo was perfect. Everything from communication before arriving to check out was smooth and easy.

Great location, looking out on the beach. Great views of the sunrise. The unit needs maintenance. The floor tile in front of the refrigerator was taped down with clear, packing tape. Other areas of the kitchen tile were peeling up. My partner got a bloody toe from stubbing her toe on peeled up tile. Shame on the management company for not fixing this. You would not describe the carpet has clean. Kitchen was minimally equipped. No baking pan, not even a small 5 x 7 size. And not even a paring knife for the kitchen. And 1 steak knife. But there were a couple larger knives of good quality. Plenty of silverware. A couple of nice beach chairs, and a nice small cooler for going to the beach. Refrigerator was newer with a great icemaker. Overall, this could be a great unit if the owner and managers were willing to step up their maintenance. Thanks for reading.

November 2023

The property is in need up updates. The bathroom is much like a sauna- poor ventilation and an old fan. Thank goodness the bedroom had a separate unit- as the air flow/circulation in the condo is poor. When the front door is open it has a nice natural ventilation, but you can’t leave the front door open. Patio leaves little privacy which is ironic as the walls on the sides are great, but guests above each other hear everything! And the pictures do not show that the Kuhlio highway is your view. Be warned, although the surf does help drown out the noise you will see the oncoming lights and traffic. Location is perfect access to all parts of the island.

The condo was large, well stocked, clean, and had a washer and dryer.

November 2023

This property was fine. Definitely much older than the pictures suggest. But we were fine with that. Honestly the only deal breaker for us was we assumed since it was right on the water we would have a good ocean breeze and for some reason, with the way it’s situated, you can feel any breeze at all!! Like even on the balcony the air is stagnant. The temperature inside was stifling and made sitting in the living room miserable even with fans. The bedroom has an ac unit for sleeping which saved us. I honestly wouldn’t have made it without that. This property was fine but I wouldn’t stay there again. I understand not all condos have AC on the island and that’s fine, but this property is just too hot to be comfortable. Otherwise……it was okay.
Bethany B.
November 2023

1) Because this unit only has A/C in the bedroom, being able to have fresh air circulate through the rest of the place is essential. The front door louvers don't open, problem 2) The toilet emits a screeching sound & needs servicing. 3) The couch & chair in the living area need total replacement 4) The beach umbrella on the porch is broken, useless

The condo was well-equipped for a Hawaii vacation! Beach towels, toys, and plenty of necessities. Although hot at times, the AC caught up after a couple hours of turning on. The only hiccup is the bed and the dresser. Very close together and we both hit our ankles and feet when walking in front of the bed. We still very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this condo for a couple! Mahalo!!

The owners maintain everything to a high standard and it is beautifully decorated and sparkling clean . The bed is very comfortable, it is very well equipped and has everything you could possibly need . Communication with the owners was extremely quick and easy . The location is perfect for visiting all areas of the island , and walking distance to lots of restaurants and amenities . I hope to visit and stay here again in the future . I would 100% highly recommended this lovely apartment .

We stayed here for about 10 days, and it was absolutely wonderful. The condo was clean, updated, stocked with all the basics, and very comfortable. The view from the balcony was incredible. We didn't want to leave to go home. It was just a short walk to the beach, and close to lots of restaurants and shops. Check-in and out was easy, and communication with the host was great. I'd definitely recommend this space, and would stay here again in the future.

9/29/23-10/5/23 This property was absolutely remarkable. It was exactly as described in the descriptions and exactly what we needed for our vacation. The view and the sound of the crashing waves from the deck cannot be beat. We saw a school of dolphins and a few sea turtles right from the deck. Bring binoculars if you want a close up look. The basic kitchen extras are all provided like sandwich bags, saran wrap, etc. (which you don't find in other places). Didn't use the range or other small appliances, but the fridge is nice and big. Having the air conditioners was a massive life saver inside the condo. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. I'm always nervous about what kind of sleep I'll get with the unknown. The nice big TV's (2) were great for late night shows or the news. But specifically for the channel that tells you all about the island and things you can do/see. Plenty of towels for showers, etc. Plus the W/D are an added bonus if you do run out. The laminated notes and labels were very helpful with instructions on things or where to find stuff. The onsite pool was very well kept and super convenient (noodles provided at condo). We took advantage of the provided snorkel gear, beach chairs and umbrella and went over to Lydgate Beach. Across the street from the condo is Passion Bakery Cafe which has outstanding Malasadas. There is an ABC store down the road to grab anything. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed our stay in Kauai very much. Overall the condo was good bargain and location. However a few things were not as perceived on the website photos and information. The view as shown was great of the beach and water from in the living room until you stepped onto the balcony your view was of a burned out abandoned building just below balcony level. OK that's not horrible and yet it was not as shown. A bigger deal for us was the lack of A/C in the entire condo? There was only a large noisy A/C stand alone unit in the bedroom which didn't come close to providing us with the cool temps we would have liked in the living room, kitchen, bathroom. We were told to open the balcony doors and enjoy the trade winds??? Hmmm, trade winds gave us alot of warm/hot humidity in the condo vs a comfortable temp. They did provide multiple fans which did help alittle. Condo was very comfortable as rental for 10 days and we liked the location alot since it is mid island and gave us easy access north or south. Next trip we will look for a different place mostly because of the A/C. I suppose if we were locals we would get used to it as was mentioned to us by a person from housekeeping. We chose to enjoy our good fortune to be in Kauai and not s literally sweat the small stuff. I think the owner could do better on the website info based on my past experience as rental owner of condos in Florida for many years.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here! We spent 5 nights here on our honeymoon. The central location was awesome, we could easily get to the north or south side of the island in about 40 mins which was perfect for all of the exploring we had to do. The ocean and sunrise views were perfect and just as pictured in the listing. The condo had everything we needed for our stay, along with beach equipment. The only small critique would be there were small stains on some of the furniture that could use some TLC, but overall didn’t really impact anything but the look! We would stay again!

You are basically on top of the water. It is an amazing location. Private lanai with excellent views. Plenty of parking. I must have a different idea of clean than most people. The unit was definitely not clean. Hair in the tub, stains on carpet, just not up to my standards. Kitchen had anything and everything you needed. Even a waffle maker! Sliding glass door didn't lock. Contacted management and they said they would have someone take a look. Someone did come out but it was never fixed. I'm not ok with doors not being locked.

My wife and I stayed here 24 Sep - 1 Oct 2023. We enjoyed the beautiful view from the balcony and close proximity to restaurants and shopping, many within a very short walking distance. The furnishings and amenities were quite adequate for an enjoyable stay. I would say they are a bit dated compared to other condos we have stayed in but in no way detracted from our stay. And for the value, compared to other condos in the same complex, you can't beat it. Some folks have complained about the road noise and I was a bit worried about it prior to arriving but thought that since most of the road construction in the area had been completed, it wouldn't be too bad. I do have to say, that even though the road construction was very minimal, the road was still a bit noisy. It is just a very busy road, regardless of construction. If you are a light sleeper, this may be an issue for you. I came prepared with some soft silicon ear plugs and had no problem sleeping. My wife doesn't like using ear plugs so the road noise was a bit more annoying for her. Overall, the condo really is a lovely place to stay, and as I mentioned, you can't beat the price.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this condo 1-5 Oct 2023. The view of the bay is absolutely stunning as soon as you walk in. The furnishings are beautifully updated and the kitchen was well-stocked with everything you may need. The bathroom had plenty of room and we simply loved the very updated shower. Although we didn’t use any of the beach equipment, there was plenty available out on the balcony. We certainly enjoyed the central location as well. Close proximity to restaurants and shopping, some just a short walk away. Steve and Tina provided excellent communication throughout. They were very accommodating and even allowed us an early check-in when we were moving from another condo just three doors down the walkway. So convenient! This allowed us to still enjoy our entire day and not have to worry about waiting on the condo availability. We would definitely recommend this wonderful condo and would certainly stay here again!

October 2023

Wonderful views. Very comfortable and well stocked. Loved being able to fully open the big front windows for the breeze. Also loved watching turtles swimming right below the condo yard. And please don’t take away the chickens, they are fun to watch. The pool was great. Did fine with no A/C even though some of family was worried at first. Thanks to owners as well for having beach chairs and towels! Overall definitely a 5 star, for location, comfort, look of condo. Gave a 4 only for sewage smell in back bathroom but we smelled this out on the street too so maybe a ventilation issue. Thank you to all for a great stay on the island. Visit the lighthouse in the north for the birds and nests. This was an unexpected highlight. We also loved the rock pool at Lydgate beach. Tons of places to eat right nearby. We liked the bakery across the street and Bobby V Italian down the street . Zorbas across the street as well for the lemon chicken soup and really good drinks.

This condo is in a perfect location to do day trips to any side of the island! Its also close and convenient to get to from the airport in Lihue. There is an excellent vew looking down the east side of the island with spectacular sunrises if you get up early to see them. The condo itself was very clean, was comfortable and was well stocked with kitchen supplies, perfect if you want to do some cooking at home to save some money! Lots of stuff within walking distance, multiple beaches, kayaking the Wailua River, shopping centers, grocery and the historic section of Kapa'a. It was a great place to stay!

We spent 2 weeks on Kauai… one in Poipu and the other in Wailua. Loved both. This Wailua condo had everything we needed. Very clean, well stocked, laundry in condo and a gorgeous view. Only complaint (and it’s not the fault of the property managers!) was the homeless down on the beach below us, were loud sometimes at night and we didn’t feel comfortable leaving our sliding door open.

The unit we stayed in was very clean with everything we needed from cook wear, to paper towels, linens and toilet paper. It was wonderful sitting with the deck doors open to hear the water or sitting on the deck and just being. It is a good location in proximity to shop walking and alternate restaurants, I felt safe and there are cameras everywhere. Checking in be out was a breeze, the complex manager was very kind and we had a wonderful vacation and stay. We would definitely stay at this unit and on the property again for sure! I also used the pool which was very clean with plenty off lounge chairs and bathrooms right there too. Thank you to our hosts, we will be back!

This condo has a fresh clean appearance and feel. We followed the host’s recommendations regarding trash removal and avoiding storing paper bag & we didn’t have any problems with pests. The condo is comfortably furnished. There are two small a/c units to help keep you cool. We did briefly lose power for about an hour, not sure how often this happens on the island but I do recommend locating the flashlight ahead of time in case you need it. In regards to amenities, we felt the local guide book, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler & snorkeling gear were a thoughtful & much appreciated touch. The condo has the basic kitchen items as one would expect as well as coffee, filters, salt, pepper, olive oil & a few spices. The condo is nicely situated between the North & South shores making both of them an easy drive. Be aware, the North shore is very expensive. Speaking of expenses, I recommend you sign up for the Safeway card if you’re buying groceries to save a few bucks. We spent much of our time on the South & West side of the Island. Poipu beach has great snorkeling & wild life. We found Kauai Brewing had a great selection of good beer, Napoli brewing which is right across the street from the condo, wasn’t quite the same. All & all this was a great clean conveniently located condo. Hosts were attentive. Would highly recommend!!

Some updating on stove is needed. But overall, it is very comfortable and the perfect location to explore all of Kauai

This condo was exactly what we were looking for. Located right off the main road, it was easy to get around. The beach right next door was beautiful and it was a quick walk to and from a little shopping mall and differemt beach up the road. Many restaurants in walking distance also. Having in room laundry was a perk, and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. Bedroom was comfortable with the AC, and the rest of the condo stayed pretty cool with windows open and fans on. You can tell the condo is a bit dated but for the cost, it is more than worth it. Would definitely stay again.

We would stay here again just for the view! We were about 50 yds from the water, 1st floor, and could hear the waves and watch wind surfers. The condos themselves are old but clean and nothing to complain about (although the sheets and towels could be updated) but it had everything we needed.

Very clean and roomy. Enjoyed the lanai and the sound of the ocean waves daily. Bed was comfortable and the A/C in bedroom made sleeping easy. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. Used the beach chairs and beach towels.

We had a great time staying here! The location was very central and even walkable to nearby restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay again! Also getting to watch the sunrise on the ocean was a huge bonus!

This was our first time in Kauai. We were a bit hesitant as it is close tot he road, but you cannot hear any traffic at all. You are close enough to the surf that you can hear the surf! Amazing Sunrises just off the lanai. We would definitely stay here again.

This property is centrally located, has a great view, and has the best equipped kitchen we've ever had with a VRBO rental (including a true burr coffee grinder and a quality coffee maker). We did our fair share of eating out, but it's nice to be able to cook a few meals in the property, and especially to be able to make good coffee every morning.

We enjoyed our stay in this oceanfront condo. Everything is as advertised. The only sounds you hear are the waves and the roosters. It's in a good location on the Coconut (east) coast of Kauai, so not a long drive to either end of the island, and there are some good restaurants and shops nearby. The kitchen is well stocked and had our favorite things - Keurig coffee maker, good coffee mugs, wine glasses, and even Champagne flutes. If we get back to Kauai we'd definitely stay here again.

We stay at this complex due to the great ocean view and location, depending on the price and availability of the units. There are tradeoffs: the nicer, upgraded units are more expensive. Pros: Beach equipment, numerous towels & hangers, kitchen accoutrements, A/C and sound machine in bedroom. Cons: screen doors need to be replaced, tripping hazard separates kitchen, carpet dinginess, dingy foam sofa. The screen doors were in terrible shape. The righthand door was completely off the tracks, leaning against the lanai, and the lefthand one barely moved. We asked the property manager about it the next day. Although the response was quick, we were told that they had "screen door specialists working on the door" who have "been making great progress." (???) And someone "will come in the morning" to work on it. No one came after two more days, at which time we reached out again. Although someone did eventually come, the doors remained difficult to move. Multiple reviewers have mentioned the screen doors, which continue to be problematic. They need to be replaced. The carpet in the photos looks newly cleaned and thus didn't represent what we experienced; it could really use a thorough cleaning. There is an unfortunately located raised laminate bar thingie on the floor separating the kitchen from the hall that we both hurt our feet on. While we'd stay here again, just know the unit is dated and the screen doors are in sore shape. The ocean view is always a winner!

The condo was in a perfect location to access the whole island. It also had everything we needed as well for the beach which was very helpful. Would def book here and the property manager Mark was so very nice and kept the property so nice.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it's such a beautiful place! The fact that the balcony overlooks the ocean made for peaceful mornings together. The property is very clean and the inside appears just as the pictures online. The outside property manager walks around outside frequently making sure everything is kept together and clean. Everyone that we interacted there was very kind. I was surprised at how many appliances were available for us to use during our stay, as well as condiments and stuff for the beach! It's a nice central location to be able to do fun activities in both the north and south. And it's also close to Walmart and Costco which is convenient for the most affordable grocery shopping! We would definitely stay here again :)

The kitchen was NOT clean and the unit was rough. Broke lamp, broken hairdryer, broken slider locks, inoperable window, super flimsy beach chairs, sprung cabinet hinges means they never stay closed, couch sags and the cushions are worn out, no hooks to hang clothes, on and on. This and more added up to an uncomfortable stay. After one night we moved to a hotel. The view was great to be sure. The owner’s response to our comments and request for a partial refund was defensive and unsatisfactory.

Centrally located to shopping, dining and excursions. The view of Wailua Bay is spectacular. The bedroom of this unit remained well lit at night from lighting outside the unit. Also, conversations at the pool, made it difficult to rest/sleep. We have had the opportunity to stay in several units at Wailua Bay View over the years, and found this unit less desirable.

The apartment is very nice and it has everything you need! The location is perfect! The owner is very kind! Kauai is my favourite island of the Hawaii!

No air conditioning other than bedroom. Listing says sea breezes for rest of unit. Not so much! Bathroom gets no air at all. View from inside condo is good, but from lanai there is a big eyesore of a rusted out restaurant and beach used by many homeless who do not follow the quiet time policies required at the condo complex.
