This condo was great for our family of 4. The AC in the bedrooms worked great and made it very comfortable for sleeping. The location of the building was a little further away from the ocean than we had thought we would be, but is was just a short walk. The ammenities were all great, loved the beach blankets! We felt safe and at home. The couch was very firm and not super comfortable, but luckily we spent most of our time outside or on the lanai!

Absolutely PERFECT stay at Paradise Found! I actually spent 6 hours looking at every hotel and condo in Kauai and ended up cancelling a hotel booking to stay here, and I have zero regrets. Our family could not have have rented a better VRBO! Just as shown in the photos, the views are gorgeous and the condo is very well appointed, spacious, and secure. The unit has EVERYTHING you need! Beach chairs, beach towels, games, books, a nice bluetooth stereo, two balconies with comfy and ample seating, closet space with hampers...and a huge folder of restaurants and local attractions with personalized reviews! Ken is so kind and helpful and will answer all of your questions. The area around the condo is quiet and safe, and we appreciated being able to walk to the Coconut Marketplace for groceries, Italian food or BBQ, or just to gift shop or get a gelato. There is also Lava Lava right next door. The kitchen of the condo, however, is chock full of every single cooking utensil, appliance, or dish you might need! The pool is quiet and clean, the grounds are immaculate and full of beautiful flowers and plants, and there is a lovely sacred site on the premises to reflect or watch the daily sunrise. Beds and living room furniture were so comfortable. This unit feels like authentic Hawaii!! I'm sure I forgot to mention something, but I feel like I covered all of the important aspects. Thank you, Ken!! We will be back!

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was well equipped and as described in the listing and photos. The views were amazing! The grounds were well-maintained. Easy access to food and shopping. It was a great stay and I would recommend this location/condo for families (we have two teenagers so 3 beds, 2 baths and washer/dryer in unit were a godsend!)

The location was perfect to easily get to both sides of the island- Poipu and Hanalei. The condo was clean and the grounds were meticulously kept. The pool was great and the beach, restaurants and activities nearby were also great. For a family who spends a lot of time visiting different beaches it was good to have a high quality umbrella (thank you). The beach chairs, however could use an upgrade to the typical backpack style chair that reclines as the ones provided were extremely uncomfortable. A cooler for the beach would have also been greatly appreciated. I was also disappointed when I asked for clean towels on the first day because the current ones smelled musty that the response was to go wash them myself. We also requested an additional bed sheet for one of my kids to sleep on the couch and I was told that this could not be provided. Some updates to the interior are needed including AC added to the main living area.

The location is central to the island and many things close by. The view is exquisite and the sound of surf was pleasantly constant. The ocean was right there, only steps away. An extremely nice rental. While you have to be able to carry your bags up three flights, you have no people above you that can sometimes sound like elephants walking around.

This house is so close to the beach, open the curtains and look at the waves.
The private pool is awesome and always clean.
You can just go throght the back gate and you are at the beach, no need to drive anywhere. The beach is great for snorkeling with tons of tropical fish.
You can also walk to many restaurants and stores.
The kitchen is full with everything you might need.
Plenty of towels and beach supplies are available for the guest to use, as beach towels, chairs, snorkeling equipment, Umbrelas and more.
I my room for improvement I see if the couch is a little uncomfortable and old, and the main bedroom suit shower could use a better shower curtain system. The shower is so powerful and awesome with 4 shower heads, but when you use all at once it spills water outside the shower into the toilet area.
I would still book this place over and over and be happy with all.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this property. The first time was in 2021 just after lockdown ended. The condo is just as lovely as we remembered. You can’t be walking out to the lanai and having the ocean in front of you. We basically could sit near the ocean or sit on the porch under the shade and enjoy the view. There was an issue with one of the bathrooms, but the property manager was responsive, and the problem was taken care of. If you’re looking for a great place to stay on Kauai, that is right at the ocean, look no further than this place.

When you have never been to the island it is hard to know which area to choose. We stayed in two locations during our stay and this condo location is hands down worth choosing. Not only was it centrally located to explore both ends it was right on this beach spit where one could jump the waves without all the people. The decor could have been a little more updated and though it didn't have AC it didn't matter. We will definitely be back hopefully sooner than later.

Lae Nani is a little slice of paradise on a gorgeous tropical island. The area is amazing with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance. The condo complex has a pool, tennis court, laundry, and direct beach access. Our room on the second floor was perfect for us: beach views within earshot of the waves and easy access to walk to the sand. We had breakfast every morning on the lanai listening to the waves and watching people on the little stretch of beach. We even saw a turtle swim by one evening when we were in the water around sunset.The host was very responsive to questions and requests. The condo was clean, with everything I needed in the kitchen to cook while we were there. Keurig coffee maker was nice to have. They provide some k-cups as well. We saw tiny ants during our whole stay in the kitchen and bathrooms. But they were not bothersome. We saw them all over the island while out too. It's just part of life on an island.There were only 2 of us, but it was nice to have 2 bathrooms. I wish we had more bath towels though. Everything takes so long to dry, and towels get musty. I didn't want to pay for the laundry machines to do towels. We had a great visit and highly recommend this condo and this complex. Great place to relax! And great location when exploring the island.

The unit was wonderful! The kitchen was fully stocked with nearly every utensil I could ask for! And the storage closet on the lanai contained four beach chairs, a couple umbrellas, three sets of snorkel gear, and an assortment of floatables for the pool or ocean! We stayed 10 nights and having the washer and dryer was huge! GREAT stay!
July 2025
We had a very nice stay in this unit! Check in was a breeze with great communication from the owner and on site property manager. The unit was as described, compound had beautiful landscaping and the pool was perfect! Nice bbq area as well. Location is perfect for exploring the island. We had a few very slight hiccups, namely no dish soap and no dishwasher soap, but the local manager personally delivered those items within the day. There were also some dead batteries in the AC remotes, also provided sane day. Some instructions on how to use the AC units would be helpful. The kitchen was well equipped with a rice maker, lots of pans, and plenty of plates and silverware. We added a few insulated drink cups for pool cocktails to the collection, as well as a small igloo cooler for beach and pool trips. Overall we would highly recommend this unit! It was a great spot with lots of amenities nearby!

Really enjoyed our time at Lae Nani. Condo is in great shape. Had everything we needed including beach chairs and umbrella. We spent time on the north and south sides of the island and this location was in between so it worked out good for us. The grounds around the condos is very nice and lush. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks again Shannon and Wendell for hosting our family.

This is a second floor condo with a partial view of the ocean & a beautiful garden view from the lanai. The full kitchen (with ice maker and Brita style water filter) was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and appliances (toaster, microwave, rice cooker, dishwasher and more). The pantry had various oils, spices, coffee, etc. There’s a high top round table on the lanai & a large round table in the dining area that was perfect for family game time! The instant inflatable bed was very impressive! You just plug it in and step back. It inflates and expands itself, turning into an elevated bed. It needed to have some air added to it each morning, but that seems pretty standard for any kind of inflatable. It was very easy to stow away at the end of our trip as well - just turned the dial to “deflate” and it folded itself back up! We enjoyed the numerous games, beach chairs, boogie boards, beach umbrella, pool noodles, and more that was available. I was very impressed that there wasn’t any sand strewn about the unit! The cleaning crew must do a very god job! The beach was like our own private beach! There were some others around but there was enough space to separate ourselves from the others present. The waves were pretty big, perfect for boogie boarding. We also enjoyed going down to the beach for some stargazing on clear nights. Coconut Market is just across the parking lot, with an ABC store & various little shops. We enjoyed going into “Old Town Kapaa” for some shopping

This property was the perfect spot for our family of four. The first floor walkout to the pool and beach from the Lanai made this feel more like a beach cottage than a condo. The unit was perfectly stocked with food everything we needed from beach accommodations to cooking supplies. The location is excellent as it’s tucked away in a quiet corner of the beach with easy access to the amenities that Kapaa provides. It’s also centrally located on the east shore making day trips to the north and south a breeze. I definitely recommend this unit for a perfect family getaway.

The space was absolutely gorgeous and clean inside and out! We were able to relax in the living spaces, enjoy privacy in the spacious bedrooms, and COOK with very little inconvenience. There was a blender, Instapot, toaster, toaster oven, 2 microwaves, oven, large fridge, and even a mixer. The only issue we had was communication with the manager of the place. We reached out via the communication they requested (email and phone), but they never responded to our query.

This home was the perfect place for our family of four. It was clean and in perfect condition. The unit was well stocked from beach accessories to cooking supplies. The unit is tucked away on a corner the beach with a walkout from the lanai to the pool and beach, making this feel like a private home. I’d highly recommend this unit to friends and family.

This unit is clean, spacious, and has a fantastic view of the ocean! Everything we needed (beach towels, cooler, snorkeling gear, beach chairs, umbrella, and more) was included! The Lae Nani property is beautiful and well-maintained. The pool is clean and large. Also, this property is right next door to the Coconut Marketplace and Lava Lava. And staying in Kapaa meant we could visit all parts of the island with just a short drive. We are so glad that we rented here!

We stayed in this unit for 5 weeks during our Kauai visit and could not have been more pleased. It was everything we expected and more! The view was spectacular, with surfers frequenting the waters, and we enjoyed daily morning coffee and many dinners on the lanai. The unit itself was very comfortable and very nicely decorated with many island touches and the kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed. The mid-island location was ideal for both north and south activities. Kara was extremely responsive and it was comforting to know that she was there for advice or resolution. Overall, we were super happy with this property and would readily book there again!

Very nice condo on a beautiful property. Condo was very clean with comfortable bed and linens. Dining and living area were perfect for the two of us. We did some cooking and the kitchen was pretty well stocked. Grills down below were a bonus. Loved having the additional half bath! A/C was definitely a bonus as it was a bit humid. Balcony with an amazing view of the ocean as well as nicely manicured grounds. Perfect place to enjoy a beverage and a bite to eat! The property itself is clean and beautiful… quiet and peaceful . Location we thought, was absolutely the perfect with everything being fairly close by. The island is stunning and a true dream! We spent our 30th anniversary here and wouldn’t change a thing!

Great location for an East side property. Unit was as described but needs a refresh. Living room is teakwood furniture but not super practical or comfortable for relaxing. If you enjoy watching TV in bed you should note this unit doesn’t have a TV in the bedroom. Great view of the ocean and convenient walk to restaurants and shopping.
