The photos make this condo look roomy and spacious. It is very small. Not enough room in the living space for 4 adults to sit. Lanai is very narrow and tight. There is no air conditioning and the loft bedroom was too warm to sleep comfortably.This condo needs a serious renovation. It's looking pretty aged. However, we contacted the managers when we arrived and they did give us a full refund. They did try to remedy the heat with additional fans. What was most disturbing was the cost vs. the quality of the condo were mismatched.

This place was amazing the only issue we both felt was it went way to fast and had to leave way to soon!!!!

8 glorious nights on the beach, waves washing ashore. Sitting outside on the lanai capturing every moment. This 2 bedroom condo was wonderful. You could hear waves from your bed upstairs in the loft. Everything at your fingertips.

Absolutely lovely vacation rental equipped with everything! Comfortable, clean, homey. Such a fantastic view of the beach and an extremely convenient location making for easy access to the island in both directions

Great location, easy access off main road. Loved being right on the beach, beautiful sunrises each day. Rocky in front of condos but can walk next store to sandy beach. No a/c but left sliding doors open 24/7 to allow the cool ocean breeze to flow through. Made use of the beach chairs and umbrella. Walking distance to the grocery store.

This condo had everything we needed - it’s equipped with beach chairs, towels, and an umbrella. The lanai was a nice place to enjoy meals, drinks, etc. Kapaa was a great hub as there are really amazing mountains to hike, nice beaches, the airport, grocery stores, shopping, …
It was easy to drive to either side of the island and if you’re awake early you can catch the brilliant sunrise.
I would totally stay here again but if you’re looking for a boujee resort type stay this may not be for you.

We stayed in Kapaa Shores A309 overlooking the ocean for 10 days in June with our two adult children and son in law and it was awesome!! The attention to detail including a starter items for our stay like toilet paper, paper towel, coffee, etc was perfect until we could get to a grocery store. The staff was responsive and willing to accommodate us on our last day when we asked if we could stay until our flights at 8pm, for a very reasonable fee they let us extend our stay that day which made the trip home so much nicer! We had a few mad shuffle board tournaments in the evening as the sun set and the kitchen was well equipped. We prefer to catch our dinner, when that wasn’t as successful as we hoped we found an awesome fish market in Hanalei! Sarah was wonderful to work with, we would definitely stay again!! Mahalo!

We arrived on Saturday night. The check in process went smoothly. We awoke to water on the floor Monday morning due to the loft windows leaking. Contacted management immediately to have maintenance look into the issue. Since it was going to rain more during the week we asked if there was another property we could switch to. Property management showed us two other places but neither was of equal comparison. We decided to stay in the room and they are supposed to refund me some money. The location is great and the water front view is amazing. Other than that the property needs some updates.

Our stay in Kapaa Shore resort, was a nice experience overall, although we found some issues in the condo
# A309.
First the laundry machine smelled horribly and did not work properly. The blender did not work either as well as the mini electric grill you have.
The bath towels were dirty and stinky.
Another issue was the outdoor light, is almost falling down. On my opinion, you should make sure all is nice and neat and all the electronics are working properly before renting it to the guest. Other than that the experience was very pleasant, Thank you!

We loved our stay at Kapa’a Shore Resort! The location is perfect—right at the beginning of the beautiful Ke Ala Hele Makalae Path for beachside walks and bike rides. Easy day trip access to Kauai’s south shore and north shore, plus the airport is 15 minutes away. Walking distance to main strip of Kapa’a shops and restaurants.
Property is beautiful and well-maintained. Nice pool, hot tub and lounge chairs. The condo had everything we needed for light meals at home. Plenty of beach and bath towels for the two of us. Reliable wifi and entertainment options. Comfortable beds and pillows. Falling asleep in the loft bed to the sound of the ocean each night was a dream.
Only con was short staffing during our stay in Sept. 2023, resulting in the pool and hot tub closing two hours early on a few nights.
We had an amazing time and look forward to staying at Kapa’a Shore Resort in the future.

Good location, nice amenities, only real problem was noisy roofing work that I was told about just hours before I arrived - this work lasted over a week. I was offered a small courtesy refund for the inconvenience. Grounds were well kept, pool and hot tub were very clean, beach towels and chairs supplied were very appreciated. Stacking washer/dryer were very small, dryer was almost useless, even with very small load. Porch was large enough to accommodate 4 adults enjoying the view.

Great place to stay. The wind was crazy so it was hard to have the slider and windows open. Everything else was great. I heard the hot tub wasn’t working but when we used it it was fine there was a couple sketchy people hanging around the grounds but they didn’t bother us

My husband and I shared the condo with our daughter and son in law. We were spending time together. They live in Georgia and we live in Wisconsin. The condo had ocean views, so we watched sun up every morning. We went on several hikes and the central location was great!!
August 2022
The sunrise and afternoon views can not be beat. Place was clean, had an issue with a shower and the property manager was on the ball and resolved the issue in a few hours. The clothes drier was a struggle until we figured out to leave the laundry closet door open while running. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed for 8 days. There is a large beach umbrella, two beach chairs, beach mats and a cooler big enough for four sandwiches and an ice pack (2 in the freezer on arrival). There was also two insulated cooler bags that worked for drinks. No air conditioning, I love AC! Was not a big deal once we opened the sliding glass door and front door to create a breeze. Close the glass door blinds in the morning once it starts warming up, it was fine. There was laundry and dishwasher detergent, parking was never a problem. The beaches in either direction were meh. No big deal as we had no plans to use them, just drove a few minutes to Lygate for a fantastic swimming beach. Pool was great, over 7' deep on one end and shallow on the other. Sprinklers go off in the grass just before sunrise every few days, if you are on the deck it makes for a great comedy show. If you are in the grass it makes for a potential wet morning. Kapaa traffic is lame, but oh well, just go slow and let people in and chill, it only lasts a few minutes. Kapaa is a great central location, 45 minutes in either direction gets you anywhere you want to go. Do not miss Hanalei bay, btw. We will stay here again if possible.

This was the most perfect little condo for our family of 5. The most stunning view from the lanai, starting at dawn with a beautiful sunrise. And you can hear the ocean waves all night long. There is no A/C but the cross breeze there cools you off naturally so you absolutely don’t need it. The kitchen was fully stocked with all you need to cook while you visit. Super convenient to have washer and dryer in the unit. And 10 out of 10 for the location! Centrally located so you can head up north easily one day and be down south the next. Plus Safeway is right across the street. Lots of restaurants in walking distance. And the managers respond quickly to any questions you may have. Would 100% love to stay here again. I may have to… I think I left my heart there!
Mahalo!!!

We wanted a condo in Kapaa due to its proximity to both ends of the island (knowing this section of beach is not great for swimming). The complex is in great condition and unit 309 was as well. Unit had everything 2 couples needed for vacation. Thank you Garden Islands and the owners of the unit. Easy reservation process, easy communication.
