Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the location - in the crater! We used the pool/pool area which was very relaxing. The unit was comfortable and suited our needs perfectly. The neighbor was noisy- using a sander for extended periods which did lessen our relaxation - and it wasn't something you could anticipate. But it didn't ruin our enjoyment of this location. Below the amenities were awesome. The property is a bit dated.

I was halfway through a long, detailed, tongue in cheek review of this place but I decided that was too mean and not worth my effort. So here’s this- You know that vacation place that has either a) been in the family for years or b) picked up as a bargain by a rental landlord and either way nobody wants to invest in it, just enjoy the rentals coming in? That’s this place. Short of short-term repairs, I don’t think this place has had any loving attention since the Brady Bunch visited Hawaii. It’s sad, actually, because it has potential. It was available on relatively short notice. Parking was close. See? Not a negative review. But I wouldn’t rent this again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family had to unexpectedly extend our time in Kauai after one member was hospitalized. This was the only unit I could find available (this was the week leading up to Memorial Day weekend and everything was booked). I spoke to Jonathan at Ocean Realty and he immediately helped me book the property both initially, and also later helped me extend the stay when we realized we needed more time. The property was immaculately clean when we entered and perfectly suited my family in terms of beds, bathrooms, having the washer/dryer, etc. We also really enjoyed the lanai and the neighborhood, which is walkable to Poipu Beach. The unit itself is in Poipu Crater, which was so quiet and peaceful--appreciated given the circumstances that necessitated us being there. We were very thankful to have this property to stay in, as well as to have Jonathan at Ocean Realty assist use with booking it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental was beyond expectation! It was clean, comfortable, and relaxing! We loved the covered porch and ate our meals out there while enjoying the peaceful view. The kids liked the pool near by. We were a 10 minute walk to the beach to see sunset every night! I really appreciated the communication and instructions given to us were easy to follow. They even sent emails letting us know what activities were happening in our vicinity. My only complaint would be more hooks/towel holders in the bathroomz

Overall the property was pretty good. However there were a few things that need to be fixed. Electrical switches didn’t always work. Overhead fans would stop and have to be manually started. Screen doors on both sliders need to be replaced. Cabinet and closet doors don’t close. Kitchen was good except it would be nice to have another set of dishes. Correll for example. We did have a good time and the location is awesome.

Property manager was great to work with. Just check to make sure they’re planes upgrades are done before renting. Nice location. Decent water pressure.

Wouldn’t recommend this unit for anything or anyone. Total dump. Clean? Sure but only because it’s not an adobe hut. Everything is old and in obvious disrepair. Unit is not cared for by any one except the cleaning staff. Made the owner money and it’s never been reinvested in. Old and uncomfortable everything. Mattress doesn’t sag, but definitely doesn’t give much cushion either. It’s a great location and Kauai is always fun, but there’s nothing about the unit that is recommended. Roof doesn’t leak and there are beds and running water. No bed bugs and carpets are fine. Dishes are fine. Fans in each room that work...so it’s live able but not a nice place in any real sense of the term. Highly recommend something else.
