Positives-Check in was a breeze.
WIFI in unit.
TV in unit, as others have noted a vertical line on the left side of the screen is distracting.
Grounds upkeep was done daily.
BBQ supplied, but aged.
Negatives...old, dated, warn furniture not as pictured
1. A/C did not work when using the controls for the unit. Management team member came over and turned on a power switch which was hidden from sight. Once on the controls did not increase/decrease speed of the fan nor temperature of the A/C.
2. Sliding door, very difficult to open. Sliding screen door did not function at all. off the track, it needs to have all the rollers replaced probable about a $20 FIX. This has been noted by several entries in the log book in the unit.
3. View from the deck of the ocean can only be seen while standing , table on deck is too low and what you see is the deck railing.
4. Kitchen area amenities were adequate but not sure when the last time everything had been removed snd sanitized. Trash can location is right next to the silverware drawer.
5. Lack of outlets in the unit, use of power strips for additional outlets.
6.We had to call multiple times for clean towels to be delivered by the management company. Also we were in the condo for 10 days and no clean sheets provided
7. Bathtub lacks a hand hold and tub bottom was slick.
8.Front door is very difficult to open.
Others have noted these same conditions in the journal in the unit for years.

This property was beautiful. The landscaping was amazing, the room face the ocean which was only about 30 yards away.
We really enjoyed ours stay here. It's a great location in the middle of the eastern coast. It makes it easy to get to the North shore or the South shore as you explore the island.

Loved this unit 5 yrs ago! This time, chairs are stained, screen door won’t open (spent long distance money calling caretaker but nobody called back), looks like sliding door to lanai had been damaged at lock point, no door on safe as it had been pried off. (Was there a break-in recently???) Chairs on the Lanai are so low, you can’t see over the railing.
Love the location but I wouldn’t stay in 250 again until it’s cleaned up, repairs done, and customer service improves. There were also no beach supplies (boogie boards, umbrella, etc) that many other units provide. Just towels and a very small cooler.
Pick it up several notches!
At the price I paid I am not impressed.

Very nice property and quiet. Close to a number of restaurants and shops. The only problem was the patio door. It was almost impossible to open so we ended up not locking it during our stay. I did call it into Vacasa. Other then that everything was good.

Nice stay, very quiet comfortable clean unit & great location. I would have given it an overall five stars. Except, the shower/tub stall drains very very slowly and we were unable to open the sliding glass door to the lanai, door handle latch jammed. But, minor inconvenience. Issues were reported to local contact for repairs. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the unit., so it didn’t impact us so much. We would return again.

Let me start by saying I woulda Ray here again, but the unit did have some minor issues. The bathtub/shower was VERY slow to drain (hours). We were given limited towels for our stay and are not allowed to use the on-site laundry facilities so that was frustrating. The view is great, literally steps from the beach. The grounds are STUNNING. The location in Kapaa across the street from the Coconut Marketplace is very convenient.

After a long travel we wanted somewhere easy to stay, with a kid who is unsure about literally everything, the beach view with my morning coffee was great and there is a great area for walking a shopping a stones throw away. Cozy spot for the three of us, not sure if you want many more in that space, but just right for us.

We had a wonderful time here , next time perhaps more than 3 days
This is somewhere we would love to revisit.
We had access to many wonderful things from this terrific place.
We loved the location. and the ambiance
One item you should address is is the extension cords for bed side lighting. Extension cords are a temporary fix not a permanent one. The bathtub drain did'nt work when we tried it , the lever to raise and lower the plug is somehow disconnected and the stopper does not move as designed.These are easy items to address. The amenities were nice, coffee pot, wifi, entrance code, parking. We look forward to returning. This was our first ever VRBO experience so you have established a very positive starting place.in our hearts experience!
We look forward to another visit here.
Please include us in your emails for any announcements.

Great oceanfront location with beautiful views. The unit is somewhat aged, but still nice. The AC was broken upon check—in and wasn’t fixed until 10 pm that evening which was frustrating. There are many restaurants, grocery, and shopping just steps outside door, including wonderful restaurant on the beach next door.

Great condo with an ocean view from the balcony! Big comfy bed! Clean and on the 2nd floor. Beautiful complex, conveniently located to stores, restaurants and the 4-mile biking path along the coast! Pool, hot tub and pool bar steps from the condo. The hot tub is ALWAYS full sadly. The only thing lacking were beach chairs...others had written about the lovely beach chairs in this condo, but we had none. It also didn`t have a freezer in the small dorm-sized fridge, which would be nice. But check in was easy and we felt very safe! The AC worked great!

You can not beat this rental! Best value! Not only is it the ideal location on the island - 10min drive from the airport, central as in 1hr drive north 1hr drive south and you see almost the entire island. But also ideal location within Wailua- right behind the coconut marketplace, walking distance to 10’s of delicious restaurants and nice shops. Many of our excursions left near walking distance of our place so we did not have to rent a car for the entire time. The location of the room itself is also ideal- top floor, nice and quiet corner room, and can not beat the ocean view! Will 100% be staying again!

We had a great time. The room was literally 2 minutes from the beach. And one of those minutes was just walking down the stairs. Class access to Lava Lava Restaurant and the Coconut Market area too. The property is well kept, the hot tub is drained every day, and the combination of shaded and sunny space at the pool were perfect for an afternoon of lounging. Our room had everything we needed, including beach towels and the robes we nice after a shower when it was too hot to get dressed yet.

Terrific corner unit, perfect for 3 days! The location was super-convenient with shopping and restaurants in walking distance. We enjoyed watching the sun rise and whales in the distance everyday from the lanai. The room was cozy, comfortable and perfect for our needs. Would definitely stay here again. The management kindly let us check in a little earlier and were quick to respond to our request to do so (since our flight got in earlier than expected).

We enjoyed our vacation experience immensely!! The unit we stayed in, 354, was fantastic, the view was amazing, the location was very convenient to everything. The only thing that put a damper on our vacation was the ROOSTERS!! They were everywhere, ****-a-doodling all day long, waking us up early morning, we were on vacation and wanted to rest and relax. We sure wish they could control them somehow! We went to Maui after we left Kauai and we hardly saw any, was finally able to sleep!! But the property at Islander On The Beach was exquisite, grounds so beautiful, nice pool! Overall we enjoyed our vacation! Wish our unit had a bigger kitchenette! But we so enjoyed our time sitting on the Lanai, eating some meals admiring the ocean view!!!

Perfect! The room was spacious with everything you’d need for exploring the island. We appreciated being able to leave our sliding door open so we could enjoy the sound of the waves. It’s in a quiet area, yet you can walk to numerous shops and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again.

My family of 7 adults rented 4 different units here while waiting for another condo in Poipu to open. We were only here for 3 days but we all agreed we would come again and stay longer. This unit #354 was on the 3rd floor (no elevator) but was a corner unit and was very private and had a beautiful view of the water. I had a wonderful sunrise every morning while enjoying my coffee. Went to bed every night with the door open, listening to the waves.
We were within steps of the beach, enjoyed sitting in the shade with the provided chairs. Within steps of the pool with plenty of lounge chairs.
Went to eat breakfast and dinner at Lava Lava, within steps of the Islander. Had fantastic food, remember to make reservations. Enjoyed one night at the Tiki Bar at the Islander, great place to get to know other vacationers.
This unit was stocked with everything you need. No stove or oven but within walking distance of a small market that you can pick up items to microwave.

Easy check in. Space is small but it does the job for laying your head at night for a long day of adventuring. The balcony overlooking the ocean is great. Some cool bars/restaurants within walking distance. Only real issue I had was parking, if you come back later in the evening it was difficult to find a space.

We really enjoyed our stay in this room. It is accurately described in the ad, very clean and comfortable. Communication with the management company was good and professional. The location is outstanding, with great restaurants and stores for supplies. Our favorite restaurant was the Lava Lava Beach Club, it`s a very short walk from the room. The pool area/bar is nice with a hot tub and a good happy hour. The views and distance to the beach are amazing! We would definitely stay here again.

This listing is part of a resort that includes hotel rooms and additional condos that are rented out through them. Islander 250 made us feel VIP, knowing we got a great rate and had one of the best seats in the house! REMEMBER: Upkeep is not through the resort (but they are very accommodating) it is through Hula Now. Minor upkeep issues, short on a couple towels, worn screen, felt a bit stale, but we’ll worth it. Location is excellent for people looking to explore north and south.
