Such a great place for our family! We loved waking up and watching the sunrise at the beach. Location was great for exploring the whole island

This is great condo in a perfect location. The host was wonderful and let us check in a little early. The condo has everything you need for a beach, pool, or BBQ day. Our family really enjoyed our 10 days on the island no small part to this condo.

Perfect condo! This condo was perfect for our family vacation to Kauai. It is literally steps from the pool and beach. The complex is small and quiet and close to restaurants and a grocery store. We hope to stay here again!

This place is amazing, don’t hesitate, book it now! This specific unit is literally oceanfront with the surf crashing just outside the balcony/bedroom windows, and has all the cooking and other amenities you need for a comfortable stay. You will feel like you are enjoying the beach your entire vacay from the balcony with Amazing sunrises or even the comfy couch/chairs indoors. A monk seal came right up on the beach just outside the apt door for an afternoon/night. It is very close proximity (10-15 min drive) for adventures like the mountain tubing, kayaking the wailua river with hike to secret falls, biking the Kapaa bike path (Boss frog rentals a 5 min walk away), and a couple Different great luau options. You can get wet in pool, at a small beach next door, or play in tide pools outside, but nearby Lygate and Kealia were better spots for swimming, but very close car or bike ride.Safeway/ABC/Ross Dress for less are right across the street to pick up groceries and forgotten essentials… as is Wailua shave ice which is hands-down the best on the island (our teens sampled 6 places around the island!) It was an hour drive to tunnels/haena beach on the north shore, easy day trip. Just a tad farther to kee/Napali hike. Also about an hour to the turn off for Waimea canyon to the south, another easy day trip. 40 min to Poipu area. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Michele was an amicable host and much appreciated her recommendations and responsiveness. Enjoy!

The property was very nice. They have plenty of towels, including towels for the pool. The beach chairs available for use were a nice plus. Both of the pools on the property were nice. The couch bed is great for extra sleeping space, but it is a pretty tight fit when the bed is open. Finding the property at check in was difficult. It is not well marked that there are two buildings, and while it is obvious the two buildings are part of the same complex on the daytime, in the night it is not clear at all. The directions to the provided address go to the wrong building. Trying to reach out by text and phone to get clarification was completely unsuccessful. It was around 8 pm, so I would have expected a little better communication at that time. When they did get back to me, they were pleasant to deal with. However, I no longer needed assistance at that time. During our last night, the AC units both turned off and would not turn on again. Luckily, we were checking out soon. I let the host know about the issue, but didn't receive any communication back about it. Overall, it was a good place to sleep for the nights, and a good place to hang out at the pool, which is pretty much all we needed.

We really enjoyed the time here. Staying a few steps from the beach and watching sunrises was awesome, and Kapaa is a great midway point between the north and south sides of Kauai. The place was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. We loved that we could look out over the waves from the windows and started and ended most days with a walk along the beach. We even took a couple of dips in the pool. As we're from a warmer climate, living without A/C seemed strange, but the continuous ocean breeze kept us nice and cool, and sleeping to the sound of the waves was beautiful!

We absolutely loved our stay here. The apartment was very clean and lots of room for my family. The host was very responsive as we needed to call her when we arrived to know where to park and which building the apartment was in. She answered and was very helpful. The Apartment is also just a few steps away from the beach. Overall a great experience

Such a great place to stay. It was so quiet (aside from the roosters, but no one can control that). Location was awesome too. Easy to enter and leave. Safeway close by, food and shopping too. The only drawback was that I wish there was a light blanket or sheet for our 5th person that slept on the couch. There was a pillow for them though, so that was great.

Condo was perfect. Right on the water, wake up to the waves every morning. Had all the beach stuff we needed. Condo is well stocked. Great location, lots of restaurants within walking distance. Centrally located between North and South Shore. Host contacted me days in advance, provided all check-in info, contacted me after we arrived to make sure everything was as described. Thank you!

This was our first trip to Kauai and this location and property were excellent. Super convenient to be across the street from Safeway (and Starbucks/ABC Store/Ross). Easy communication with the hosts and never had to reach out for anything. Trade winds truly blow right through the place and A/C really only needed at night just as the hosts explained it all. Loved having washer/dryer access. Borrowed a beach chair and umbrella. Kitchen well-stocked for cooking meals. Proximity to the beach is as advertised, although it isn’t really for swimming, but excellent for family pictures and experiencing the sunrise. Great experience that we wouldn’t hesitate to book again! Thank you!

Ocean breezes and the sound of crashing surf made this a great place for relaxation when we weren't touring or meeting up with family. This property is a great location in Kapa'a. Though the dedicated parking spot is not next to the unit, we appreciated the shady spot for the car. The kitchen was well equipped. The full-size washer and dryer came in handy.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back! The location in Kapaa was center to visit elsewhere with the car and there was a walking/running/bike path juste 5 meters from the accommodation which enabled us to run every morning by the ocean which was a highlight.The view is absolutely incredible, and the condo was stocked with so many thoughtful extras that made our stay even more enjoyable. There were plenty of trash bags, Ziploc bags for packing lunches, makeup towels, a sponge for dishes, coffee, laundry detergent, dish soap, beach chairs, and even a cooler. It really felt like the hosts had thought of everything.The bed was exceptionally comfortable, which was a pleasant surprise. There’s air conditioning in the bedroom (not in the rest of the condo), but honestly, it cools the space well enough and wasn’t an issue for us at all.The only minor things we noticed were that there’s a broken plastic piece inside the washing machine that could potentially snag or tear clothing, so it may be worth replacing. Also, if the upstairs neighbors walk heavily, you can hear them. That said, neither of these points would stop us from staying here again.Overall, we highly recommend this place and would happily return! Marie and Maud from Montreal, Canada

The view!!! We loved sitting on the Lanai with coffee and breakfast enjoying the view each morning as well as our family dinners in the evening. The unit was well appointed, clean, and comfortable. An added bonus was bumping into Sheila who was always excited to say hello and hear about our day. We are looking forward to returning.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean and well stocked. The complex is right on the ocean with a nice beach; the views from the condo are lovely. The beds were quite comfortable. Water pressure was strong: we never had any problems taking showers. A washer/dryer in the unit came in very handy. Air conditioners and wifi worked great. Communication with management was excellent. We always received very prompt, helpful replies to questions. The unit is on the 3rd floor so there is no noise above you and there is an elevator if you need it. A few negatives: the bedroom with the king bed was quite cramped and barely had room for anything else (only one nightstand and a dresser that was in the closet). The other bedroom door is translucent and the wall adjoining the living room doesn't go all the way to the ceiling so one has to be very quiet and not turn on any lights in the living room/kitchen area if someone is still sleeping in that room in the morning. Finally, the complex is on a very busy road. Despite those drawbacks--which we lived with without much inconvenience-we would highly recommend this unit.

We had a great stay at Kauai Kailani. Such a perfect view to eat breakfast everyday. And relax at night with a bourbon. The waves of the Pacific crashing rhythmically - you can’t get closer to it. This unit was wonderful and we can’t wait to visit again. Mahalo nui loa!

Terrific location, walking distance to the great restaurants, and shops of Kapaa. Very scenic oceanfront steps away, though too rough and rocky for swimming. Clean and well-appointed unit with nice kitchen and balcony. We really enjoyed the place overall and the location.

We stayed here for 10 days during a family vacation and enjoyed our time overall. The location is outstanding, with easy walking access to shops, restaurants, shave ice, and other conveniences.Good:The unit is spacious and comfortable for a family. The primary bedroom mattress was excellent, and we slept very well. The kitchen was clean, well-stocked, and included useful cooking essentials. Beach chairs and equipment were provided, making beach days easy. There was plenty of closet space, and the second bedroom was very clean. We also enjoyed the pools once we realized we had access to both of them.Bad:Arriving at night was confusing. The complex was dark, and finding the unit and parking was difficult. A map showing the unit, parking, pools, and beach access would be very helpful. The AC worked well in the main living area but did not seem to cool the primary bedroom effectively.The bathroom needs attention. The fan/light was not working, the sink drained slowly, and the shower area could use a deep cleaning. We also noticed dust on lamps and in corners. The couch is worn and likely due for replacement.The unit feels crowded with furniture, rugs, and décor, leaving limited space for personal items. A few updates, better organization, and a thorough cleaning would significantly improve the guest experience.Overall, we enjoyed our stay. With some decluttering, deep cleaning, and a few updates, this property could fully match its excellent location and potential.

Great place to stay in Kauai! It had everything we needed. Washer & dryer were so incredibly helpful, & the host provided beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, etc. I’m so glad we stayed here! There’s a great beach you can walk to & a grocery store across the street. Highly recommend, especially if you’re traveling with kids!

This is a beautiful spot. It is on the windy side of the island. But the breeze is welcoming. The Condo was very comfortable for the two of us. We really liked the view which was incredible! Having beach stuff available was really nice. Especially, the small cooler we used everyday. The shared storage closet had chairs, umbrellas ect…. Great communication with Amanda. I can see why the condo is basically booked year round.

We enjoyed our stay. This unit was perfect for our family. The kids loved playing in the pool in the afternoons and we loved being able to sit on the lanai as they swam. Super convenient location; central to everything we wanted to do. Bonus having Safeway across the street too. Would definitely stay here again.

My family had a great stay! David provided instant replies and excellent communication throughout. The location was perfect -- right across the street from a Safeway and restaurants, too. The pool and ping-pong table were nice amenities. And the kitchen was well-stocked with a blender, coffee maker and more.

Owner is high maintenance regarding requests for the unit with relatively low hospitality. The unit had dirty floors and when contacted, he was primarily dismissive. Other areas of the unit were clean. Would recommend bringing shoes to wear around the unit, as also suggested by the owner when we contacted them. The unit had the basics and was accurate to the description, but the beach equipment was old and there weren’t beach towels, just extra bath towels. Many requests to not use the air conditioning in the unit, despite it being part of the listing. The location was convenient, water pressure in the shower was great, and parking was very easy.

The host, workers, and everyone we got the pleasure of talking to, oh lets not forget the amazing chickens, birds and lizards were all amazing. The condo was beautiful inside and out, with beautiful gardens all around. The shower was perfect for a beachview condo, especially being only a few steps away from the private oceanfront with a variety of styles of chairs to sit in, plenty for the whole family. Not to mention the first evening on the beach we had a special visitor flop up near us (well within Hawaii safe viewing standards) smiling the whole time The Master Bedroom mattress has seen better days, this being my only con i can see for this place, until they change that out that is

We had a great stay! We loved the sound of the waves and the proximity to get down to the beach. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset and walking along the shore. The place was well stocked with kitchen, bathroom, and laundry supplies. The fans were high powered and helpful, as it would get muggy in that area otherwise. Instructions to get in were clear and the host was responsive and helpful!

The location was very good, close to grocery stores. The ocean view was wonderful that we could see whales in the ocean. The kitchen was well equipped. Some of frying pans were peeling off badly. It would have been better if those were not there. The room's floor was not clean. I wish there was a mop in the room so that we could clean. Towel rack in our bathroom was broken. Communication with the host was very quick and smooth. Overall, it was good.
