This was a great place to stay during our trip to Kauai! The apartment was great... check-in was easy, the place was clean and everything worked as it should. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, a coffee maker, a vegetable peeler, etc. We forgot to bring beach towels, but luckily there were 6 stocked in the apartment, plus some snorkeling gear and other random beach accessories. We actually found that the apartment was more well-stocked than the listing suggests. The location is great...a few steps away from the beach and within a couple minutes walk from Safeway, an absolutely amazing coffee shop (Collab cafe... don't miss it!), a snorkel/surf shop, and lots of restaurants and food trucks. I will absolutely be staying here if/when I come back to the island.

Overall very cozy apartment with everything you could need from a washer/dryer to a full kitchen. Check-in process was super easy and straightforward too. Location is right by the water and very close to multiple stores and restaurants.

Had everything we needed — clean rooms, comfortable beds, full kitchen, AC and elevator. The view was amazing and the property was quiet…no party people, mostly families. It literally took 1 minute to walk to the beach where there were longest chairs and a small protected bay where kids could play in the water. The location was convenient — Safeway and Ross are across the street and the Coconut Marketplace is a short drive. Dave, the property owner, was very responsive when we couldn’t get the AC to work. It was fixed right away by the property manager. We would stay here again and highly recommend!

We recently stayed at this property and appreciated the great location and overall setup. The property met all of our needs during the trip. Kapa’a is a great central location to see all of Kauai. The communication with the host was smooth, and check-in was easy. Parking was clearly marked and close to the condo. That said, we did notice the cleanliness could have been improved. There were a few areas that felt like they hadn’t been thoroughly cleaned before our arrival, such as floors, couches, and rug. It wasn’t enough to ruin the trip. We would certainly consider staying here again. With a little more attention to cleaning between guests, this place could be a fantastic stay. We’re hopeful future visitors will have an even better experience!

The condo had everything we needed. The location was a plus because it was centered between the north side of the island and south side for driving to activities.

The proximity to a small beach was unbeatable, with steps leading to a grassy area and a small, but not swimable beach (big enough to get your toes wet, though) and the community pool. Sunrises were amazing. The unit is not air conditioned. The first few days on Kauai were unseasonably warm, so the unit was warm. However, the manager made sure to get me extra fans immediately when I explained how warm it was, and they made all the difference. The condos are some of the oldest in this area, so just like in an older home, things need constant attention. Overall, I would stay here again. The manager was superb!

I love that the property was right next to the beach and right across the street from the grocery store. I also enjoyed having a washer and dryer in my unit because it made it a lot easier to clean clothes. I would definitely stay again at this location when I come back to Kaua’i

This property is in a very central location with access to shops and groceries. If you're looking for a budget friendly (2 bedroom) option with a full kitchen its perfect. Some things to consider are that there is no AC, there is no laundry, and no towel service (you wash what they give you). Also the unit is right off the road and since there's no AC you need to keep the windows open - you will hear every truck and car and siren throughout the night. We did not sleep at all the entire time we were there.

Wonderful condo with everything we needed. Located right next to both the beach and the pool meant easy access to both but also a high traffic area for other tenants. Comfortable and would stay here again.

The property is decent.The grounds are adequate, but a bit on the old side.Air conditioning is only in the bedroom.The view from the patio is phenomenal, a beautiful sight to see every morning.Overall a good place for the price but the laundry room appliances need an update and upgrade for sure.Kauai is a beautiful island and Kapa’a Shores is in the heart of the town.

Reviewer Comments:
Overall the condos accommodations met our needs for a central place to be on the island with a full kitchen & 2 bedrooms. Just a be aware that this condo does not have AC and the laundry is about an 8 minute walk. Since the window in the master bedroom needs to be open all night you will hear ALL street traffic for most of the night, including sirens. But if you need a budget friendly place to be, especially for a 2 bedroom this is the spot.

Check in was easy and very clean place. The WiFi worked perfect and having a fridge helped a lot. The location was great and we were close to everything being on the east side. The best part was it was a 2 minute walk to the beach to sit and relax and listen to the waves. I would recommend people to stay here and I would definitely stay again.

Our stay at David's was wonderful. There was a leak in the AC when we first turned it on due to the drastic temperature change, but David immediately called and he and his daughter came by 30 minutes later to install a drip catcher panel. Shampoo/conditioner/soap all provided, as well as some dishware. Location was great, right across the street from Safeway and Wailua shave ice. Would stay here again!

We stay at probably 3-4 rentals per year and I think this is my favorite place we have ever stayed. It was perfect. We had our 6- and 8-year old with us... the ground floor was exactly what they needed so they could easily trek down to the beach, visit the tide pools, or head to the pool (which was the perfect temperature!). The lanai was perfect for watching the sunrise or having meals with a beautiful view and lovely breeze. I was worried about the lack of A/C but as other reviewers noted, the breeze made it super comfortable. We very much appreciated the boogie boards, snorkel gear, beach towels and cooler as well. My kids are already begging to come back next year! :)

It was a decent home base to explore the island. However, the unit and the property itself is basic. The front bedroom window is right by the stairs so that you hear everyone entering or leaving the building. When we arrived, it was not very clean and the towels and linens smelled as if they were washed with a quick wash only.

A fabulous place to stay. Being on the end by the sea gives a lovely sea breeze and the best views of dawn from your own balcony.

The location was fantastic. The property fronted the beach and was within walking distance of a few good restaurants. The room worked for the two of us. It was small but cozy. I really like that VRBO properties always look like their photos so you know what you are renting.

The unit was clean and the view of the ocean is what made it!! They also supplied plenty of towels for the four of us. I would say it is time to replace the beach chairs as the straps are broken on two of them. The beds were very creaky and not too comfortable and the TV was the size of a computer monitor.It was a great unit and again, the view made it!!

![Kauai Kailani Rental]()
Stayed here for 7 nights in July with my husband and two young kids (ages 4 and 7 years old). Perfect location in Kapaa. Within walking distance to Safeway for groceries, shaved ice, multiple restaurants. Easy driving distance from most places on the island (about 20 min from the Lihue airport, 50 min from the northshore, 35 min from the south shore cities).Condo itself is comfortable with 1 room with a king bed and another small room with two twin beds. It has a sliding door for privacy between the room itself and the living area. Amazing location wise in terms of proximity to the ocean and to the nice pool. My kids loved swimming in the pool everyday.Pros: clean, kitchen was well equipped, dishwasher, fridge, pots, pans, etc. Nice to have a washer and dryer in the unit. Very basic spices and cooking oils etc. We bought everything we needed for the week to make breakfasts and lunches at Safeway. Location was ideal. Cons: no air conditioning so it was hot and humid most of the time. Can’t really leave windows open due to the rain and wind. No kid friendly tableware in the kitchen. Not that big of a deal if you’re ok with your children using glass and ceramic plates/glasses but it was nerve-wracking that they might break something. Tried to contact property manager Sheila to ask if an early check-in could be accommodated since our flight was changed and arrived at 9am instead of 1pm and I never heard back from her despite leaving a voicemail with my callback info.

![Kauai Kailani Ground Floor Unit]()
This property was a wonderful home base for our week-long trip. Our family of four, including two teens, spent most mornings watching the sunrise from the lanai and ended evenings playing cards there. We saved money by having breakfast in the unit, packing lunches, and grilling dinner one night. The in-unit laundry (with detergent!) was a great convenience.The property manager was friendly and quickly responded to a minor tub/shower issue.A few minor things to note: some curtains could use cleaning, and the primary bedroom door doesn’t fully close due to the bed placement. The beach isn’t swimmable (which we knew), but being just 10 steps from the sand made up for it.We loved the proximity to Safeway and restaurants, and it was easy to explore both the north and south shores. We walked the nearby path several times and appreciated the central location.While my husband was concerned about the lack of AC, the sea breeze kept us comfortable. As a ground-floor corner unit next to the beach, we occasionally heard people talking outside the bedroom window, but overall, the property was quiet and peaceful. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful time here. I dont think I have ever stayed in a more well stocked vacation rental, or worked with such a kind and accomodating host. The complex was nice and quiet. The location was so convenient, with countlees restaurants and shops in easy walking distance. The fold out sofa bed was very comfortable and much larger and comfortable than most sofa beds. My 6ft teenage boys shared it with no issues. This rental is a great value!

The property is conveniently located for activities on the island. A closet & shade in the condo need repairing.
The windows in the main bedroom & bath would not close all the way causing hot air to enter the rooms.
I appreciated that The island contact was readily available for answers to questions. I enjoyed the use of beach chairs & snorkel equipment

The hotel was clean and had every amenity you could think of: Dishwasher, pots & pans, stove/oven, sink with disposal, a bath and half bath, 2 bedrooms and a beautiful overlooking view of the beach. A/C flowed perfectly throughout the house (hard to find on the islands), really nice sea wall at the beach, and a temperature controlled swimming pool. Had it been for my family we wished we had this room over our own house! Otherwise, perfect walking distance from any store for anything you need; Ross, Longs Drugs, Safeway, and a couple of good restaurants.

My family (2 kids 2 adults) had an amazing stay here. Beautiful home, right next to the beach. Kids had fun exploring the critters in the tide pools. It was warm in July but we were fine with the fans. The place had all the creature comforts we needed to have an amazing 8 day vacay. Fun rec room with ping pong too. Thank you!

Great communication feom start to.finish from Wendy. The condo is clean, ac is cold, the lanai over the pool is convenient with children, and in room washer/ dryer is a big help with salt water clothing. The master bed was very comfortable and would recommend when using the queen sleeper to lay it down on the ground. The overall wakable location to Starbucks, Shave Ice, a grocery, local food, the beach, and more was great with children and the central location on the island made getting around a breeze. Will be staying here in the future and recommend to everyone!
