VERY well appointed - everything you need except groceries and personal items. A great property manager who is a native and was available for any questions.

We LOVED this property!! Having the ocean view and listening to the waves was so invigorating, yet calming. The condo was perfectly and thoughtfully furnished. The entire property was very well maintained with gorgeous landscaping and an excellent pool area.

Can’t speak highly enough of this property. You get to wake up to the sound of the ocean right next to you. It’s walkable to good food options. It’s centrally located so easy to get to major sightseeing options. Comes with snorkel and swim gear which is a plus. Loved our stay here! Would highly recommend.

My husband and I came here for our honeymoon to relax and explore Kauai. The location of the property was amazing. For seeing the whole island, it cut down drive time to visit each town. Within walking distance there was great beaches and shopping to visit. This property had everything we needed with washer and dryer, beach chairs, towels, a pool, incredible view and sounds of the waves crashing. The condo is a bit dated but was comfortable for our stay. We would have loved our booking note to be addressed and more information for check out. Otherwise we had a great stay!

The unit itself was very nice and maintained and had everything we needed. Only complaint was the small amount of time we watched TV there was always an issue with the wi-fi but other than that we had a great time and thank you.

We absolutely loved this place. Fantastic amenities, perfect location to get around the whole island, great little shopping area in walking distance and beautiful sunrises. Loved the privacy of the small beach and the patio. We will absolutely be back and would look to stay here again and again!

We loved the ocean view from our lanai! Loved the new look of the renovation. Easy check-in, private and secluded. Loved it!

I cannot express enough, how beautiful and breathtaking the view was from our balcony. When I saw that it was ocean view, I figured you might be able to see a glimpse of the ocean. I never expected to see the beach with the waves crashing in the beauty of the ocean, the palm tree, everything that you could ever dream of it was like a painting in real life! The check-in was so easy the people who manage the property were so kind and helpful beyond what they needed to be. When we walked into our vacation rental, Music was playing setting the mood for our tropical paradise. The air conditioner in the bedroom worked amazingly. We frequently use the VBRO and this was by far the best one we’ve ever rented and not the most expensive either. I will for sure stay here again when we return!

The place is just what we needed. We enjoyed our stay. It has a beautiful view. It's right off main road along beach, but the crashing waves drown out the traffic. Good location - easy access to everything. Not everything is up to date, but it was nice and had all the conveniences & amenities, all in working order. AC in bedroom cools the room well. Living areas have fans only (including portable fan stored in closet). We opened windows for cross breeze and ran the fans and were comfortable (in May). Seems common in Hawaii. We did stay in room much since we were busy exploring, hiking, boating, dining out, etc., so we didn't use everything in the room. The island is beautiful and well worth the cost to vacation there.Thank you!

The owners ( Regina & Scott) always update and maintain their places. It is right next to the ocean and the waves breaking is a constant sound that we love. They also supplied beach chairs, beach towels and snorkeling gear. The grounds are also very well kept up. We have also stayed at place on the big island in Kona that the owners also own which was also spectacular.

This was our second visit to Kauai. We spent time south and north. This place is right in the middle. Short drive to great food and grocery store. The oceanfront views are fantastic and path to beach is short. Would absolutely stay here again.

The apartment was well laid out. Everything had been thought of in the kitchen and for the beach (chairs, umbrella, etc.). The view of the sea is beautiful. The contact was very nice and someone came over right away. Unfortunately, a main road runs past the house and the noise is quite loud in the bedroom. My main criticism is the extremely unpleasant smell in the apartment: the old carpet, the ancient stove, and the towels stink as soon as they get wet. And when something fell under the bed, I was disgusted by the dirt underneath. The balcony chairs are completely rusted and my clothes now have rust stains. There's no clothes rack.

This property looks like the photos in terms of the interior. The exterior is well maintained with nice gardens and the pool is beautiful. The interior is as photographed, updated but used and worn, and since it is oceanfront, rust on everything metal (cabinet handles, lamp shades). Little things don't function well: ceiling fan wobbles and makes noise, the doorwall is ready to fall off the track. A big challenge is there is no way to keep the unit a comfortable temperature, windows open fan on & bedroom AC on door closed. The front has no AC and the ceiling fan needs replacing. The bedroom AC unit is gross, as in rusted and chunks of black crud flew out when I first turned it on, it is noisy, it cools but did nothing for the humidity (property manager promptly cleaned the unit but it needs to be replaced). The immediate area surrounding the complex is the biggest negative. There is an abandoned building (round structure, not pictured, abandoned for a long time) right at the edge of the complex and right next to the stairs to the beach. There are also several homeless people living in abandoned cars on the beach right next to the abandoned building. I've rented from VRBO for years, never had a problem like this, even in big, urban areas.The neighborhood gets better several blocks down, but right by this complex, it's sketchy & certainly not an enjoyable or safe feeling beach walk! The location is convenient but if I knew about the other things, I would rent elsewhere.

The lanai is were we spent the majority of our time while in the condo. We saw the occasional turtle, surfers, fisherman, and rain showers off in the distance. Grounds are beautiful. Pool was really nice. We grilled there a couple of evenings. Grills seem fairly new and were well maintained. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, and everything worked well. The extras like ice chest, beach chairs, and an umbrella really added to our enjoyment of Lydgate Park. I would love to stay here again someday!

Condo was as described, beautiful view. Condo was well stocked with whatever we needed. Self check in so if you have questions there is no one to help. There was a tree being taken down while we were there so parking was a problem & it was very noisy. One day the on site manager let herself right into the condo when we were there without our permission, that was a little disturbing.

Location matters and this one is not in a great area. The building is older and it looks dated and the area seems to have deteriorated with time. That said, the grounds and gardens that are managed by the building are beautifully maintained. The pool is gorgeous and it is gated and separated nicely from the parking lot and the road. The location is good in that the unit we rented overlooks the bay, it is centrally located to everything you want to see or do on Kauai and convenient to the airport. The bay is right by the highway and the beach area off the main road doesn't feel safe -- problems that impact enjoyment of a vacation rental property. There is a round, abandoned building covered in vines right at the stairway from the property to the beach (CREEPY) and there are a few people living in abandoned cars on the beach right by the abandoned building. There is also a construction area across the road doing something to another abadoned building, it's blocked off with black temporary fencing. So these things about the location really matter -- my husband likes to walk alone in the morning, but didn't because of the area. Had I know those things, I would not have rented in this building, especially since I learned after we arrived that I could rent a much nicer place, in a less gritty area a down the road for the same price! The side street behind the building has small businesses and down that street a bit further, there are lots of apartments and nice resorts/condos and a sidewalk along the beach (so things at least look nicer and feel safer for walking around). The unit itself is "tired" but it had all the basics for a vacation rental, things for the beach, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, small appliances, etc. and there is a small washer dryer in the unit (a key feature why I rented it). But, the other big negative for this unit is lack of air conditioning. The bay is fun to look at but the waves crash so it is loud day and night and the windows in the living area need to be open. There is a ceiling fan in the living area that rattles and vibrates but it is a necessity to move the air. The bedroom AC unit cooled but it is loud and it is sketchy with heavily rusted parts and things that can't be fixed. The breeze from the bay didn't cool the place enough to make it comfortable or get rid of the humidity and the AC helped the bedroom only. So most of the unit is hot and steamy and the bedroom is cool, but still humid. Not being able to get any area in the rental a comfortable temperature at the same time certainly didn't enhance the experience.

Our stay was perfect! We had great views, easy access to the beach (there was a path to the beach pretty close to the location) and the condo was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks for the hospitality, Luke!

This was our first visit to Kauai and we loved staying here. The location is great. Right on the water without people walking behind the property and a short walk to Wailua beach. It is also about a mile from Lydgate Park which was a great place to swim and snorkel. The location has restaurants within walking distance and makes it easy to drive either north or south on the island.The condo has been recently updated and is very clean. The owners have thought of everything that you could possibly need in the condo. The washer and dryer were so convenient to have. The owners are very responsive and responded to several of our messages before and after we arrived. We also met their property manager who is also great. We not only loved beautiful Kauai, but were able to completely relax and enjoy the ocean sights and sounds from the condo. We will definitely stay here again when we go back.

The 3rd floor condo was super clean and had a beautiful view from the balcony. The balcony has a comfy 3 seat bar and lounger, which was great for drinks after a long day of having fun on Kauai. The kitchen had all the utensils and amenities of home. We were able to cook anything we wanted several times during our stay. The balcony also has a storage box with beach chairs, snorkel gear, noodles for floating, and boogie boards for use if you desire. The condo has two A/C units that work wonderfully and keep the unit cool when you are inside. The complex has a beautiful pool that we used a few times, and it is so quiet. The are many parking spots also, so no worries anout parking. The condo complex is so quiet and so enjoyable. We walked to the Coconut Marketplace almost daily for the restaurants, the ABC store, and the Lava Lava Club. Johnny V’s Wingz n Tings is there also and has pretty good food. The steak rocked at Johnny V’s. Checking in was amazingly easy because we didnt have to. The owners gave us our door code the day before we arrived. We just filled out the guest card upon arrival, then the complex manager dropped off our parking pass. It was so simple. This condo is beautiful, the location is perfect, and the overall experience was amazing. I will stay here again when we return to Kauai.

We loved how well staffed this condo was and how well everything was labeled. It is a remodeled unit- very nicely done. Sits right over the ocean. We watched sea turtles out there every morning. Loved that we could walk to shops and restaurants. The property manager was super friendly and hands on. Great place to stay!

The reviews said it was well-appointed they were right! Everytime we said to each other, do they have this? they did! It is clean and newly and tastefully renovated and the bed was super comfy with good linens (important to me).Kauai is EXPENSIVE so it was great to make breakfast everyday and eat it out on the balcony, which has a private view. It is important to know that this property is not a resort so there is no outdoor areas to lounge other than the balcony and the pool (which does not face the ocean). When looking at other places that had pools, lounging areas and beach access, they charged a resort fee so it was more expensive. We had no issues because we were out hiking every day and threw the beach chairs in the back of our car and went to different beaches after our outings, which was awesome. The Lava Lava Club restaurant/bar was close and they have a beach there to hang out on and Lae Nani for safe swimming is right there. We had a fantastic first time in Kauai! A truly special place.

Nice quiet small complex. The grounds were well kept up. The only loud sounds were the occasional resident rooster calls. We didn't go to the pool but it appeared clean. The condo was cutely decorated and the air conditioner in the bedroom worked great. Didn't need an air conditioner for the rest of the space due to a nice breeze always coming from the balcony. All appliances that we used were in good condition (did not use washer/dryer). The only negatives were the dirty vent above the bathroom sink. We found dirt crumbs in the sink everyday from stuff falling from the vent. Could be why the sink is slow to drain. Marvin made a few neighborly stop ins to see how we were getting along. All in all we would stay here again. You can get fresh Malasadas from across the street!

Great place in Wailua for a central stay on Kauai. Great location to explore the island from. Apartment was very clean and modern. The ACs were great to get rid of the humidity in the rooms. The garbage disposal was the only flaw, it got very smelly.

I came in late Saturday night and left very early Tuesday morning. The host accommodated me several times getting back to me with questions promptly. I did not swim at the beach shown in the picture. The view is wonderful with South Southeast directions & morning light. The Coconut Market or Longs Drugs is a short drivefew minutes.
