We thought the pool area was beautiful and never crowded.

One of the nicest condos I've ever stayed in. Everything was just perfect. Very clean; comfortable bed; great patio with table/chairs and lounge chairs; and a wonderful kitchen!! Loved the ground floor unit and actually didn't even need the A/C ... kept the kitchen and BR windows open and used the ceiling fans. Perfect. Also the location is excellent. Near the airport and walking distance to the Coconut Marketplace which has restaurants and tons of little shops. Excellent communication with hosts also. Absolutely loved my stay here. My son and family was in building 4 ... but I loved my proximity to the pool (especially with grandkids aged 8 & 4). Rent this unit with no regrets ... it's PERFECT!!!!

This condo was excellent in terms of location and amenities. The pool overlooks the ocean and it’s close to grocery stores, restaurants, shopping and more! We enjoyed our time.

Wonderful location, with easy access to the Coconut marketplace with great dining options and shops. The grounds of the complex were beautifully maintained. Easy access to the beach that was not busy and did not have a lot of "foot traffic" going through made it feel very secluded. The pool was wonderful as well. The property felt very safe and had everything we needed. The a/c unit is portable and noisy, so if that bothers you, then may want to consider other units.

We stayed in this third floor condo with our daughter and son-in-law for a family vacation. This beautiful home and the owners exceeded our expectations. We would not hesitate to rent this home again and most likely will in the future. There is nothing negative we could ever say about it. We love Kauai and the Lae Nani community, this being our third visit. Mahalo Shannon and Wendell

Unbelievable location and views! Walking distance to restaurants, bars, groceries and shopping! Walked across street to Kayak excursion to Secret Falls! Rented bikes near by and rode along the beach for miles! Condo well stocked, even had a closet full of beach gear and toys! Wonderful Hosts! Thank you.

Heartfelt appreciation to Lina for sharing your lovely 'Slice of Heaven' at Lae Nani with us. Every moment of every day was simply perfect, relaxing and comfortable, all while being at this remarkable Paradise. I have stayed repeated times at Lae Nani through the last decades, yet this was my first at Lina's unit. I loved the location, the view, the tradewinds for constant pure comfort and no need of AC. Everything needed for our entire stay (and more) was provided - even extras like lightweight beach chairs and a cooler for island excursions/picnics. Very clean unit, and communication with owner is excellent. I will certainly look forward to returning Lina, and I thank you - - we had such a lovely time. A We will be back!

Beautiful view of paradise. Location is perfect for any exploring of the island. We took full advantage of the kitchen which was very nice. You can be in the salt water pool with a drink while looking at the ocean. Is there anything better?

This is our second time staying at this location. That says it all!! Location cannot be better. You are close to everything!! Condo is amazing!! They do not skimp on anything! Ocean front is the best! Condo is very big and beds very comfy! Shower is fabulous. I could go on and on. You will love it!!

The property was really nice, and what a view! It was a little bit low on some basics. We wound up buying shampoo, shower soap, toilet paper, and a lot of spices.

We loved Kauai and loved this condo in Kapa’a. The location was great, very convenient to many amenities (Coconut Marketplace right next door/within walking distance) and right on a beautiful small beach. The grounds were lovely and well-maintained and included a heiau on the property. A beautiful coastal bike path was nearby. The condo itself was spacious, tastefully decorated and well-stocked in terms of beach towels and kitchen supplies. The bed was very comfortable and we loved the lanai and hearing the crashing waves all night long. The owner was very quick to respond with any questions we had. Overall I would highly recommend and would stay again if we ever have the chance to return to the beautiful garden isle.

Everything is just as described. Clean, comfortable condo with a lovely view in a quiet complex with lush landscaping. Would definitely stay here again. Kapa’a is the perfect place to stay on Kauai. Lots to do within walking distance or a very short drive, and its central location is an hour or less from just about anywhere.

This is such a special property. It is perfect for a family with young children. The grassy grounds were great for playing among themselves and other families. Pond in front perfect for the young ones - being so close to the ocean was perfect. Also, the pool was delightful and being close to the Market Place with the fun shops and Awesome Farmer's Market!!

Wow, I'm actually struggling to find words. This place was simply magical. The grounds, pool and that beach, oh my, are all so lovely. And you can't beat the location of this unit! We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the chaises on the patio. It was hard to leave. The condo was wonderful, too. It has a newer kitchen and bathrooms. Thank you for the rain shower! I've enjoyed well stocked VRBOs before but their "fun closet" was jammed. There was even a basket full of sunscreens. All that and unmatched communication! Sharon was very prompt in every message and her instructions were thorough and accurate. Delightful! We will return!

We were so happy that we stayed at this beautiful condo. We could not have asked for a better location for our first time on the Hawaiian Islands. Kara is a very personable host and was very patient and thorough answering my many questions prior to our stay. The condo is tastefully decorated and the pictures are exactly as we experienced it. The grounds are meticulously manicured and reminded us of a mini botanical gardens. The pool is spacious and very clean with lots of chairs. The beach on the property is wonderful. In fact, we decided that we considered it one of the top 5 beaches that we visited on the entire island due to its privacy and access. Great for little ones in the keiki area. Also saw many fish without snorkeling since the water was very clear. The location on the coconut coast was ideal if you want to be able to drive from one side of the island to another side for the many activities. We also loved the Marketplace that is a five minute walk from the condo with a variety of unique shops and a few restaurants. Try the Lava Lava Club.So much fun! The sunrises are an absolute bonus at this location. We are already talking about staying here again when we come back to this beautiful island.

We recently stayed 8 nights celebrating our 30th anniversary. This property was exceptional! It was clean, comfortable, quiet, beautifully decorated and well-stocked, and the view is incredible! The grounds are very pretty with beautiful plants and flowers and there are tiki torches at night. The host was easy to work with and very responsive. We loved being able to walk to Lava Lava Beach Club for great food and appreciated that they are open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We ate at several other places, but it was nice to have the convenience of Lava Lava. The Coconut Marketplace is also an easy walk and the Island Country Market/ABC store there had just about everything we needed for simple groceries. Having a washer and dryer and full-unit AC were huge benefits. The property is gated and we felt very safe. The location was wonderful. We were able to easily travel North and South to explore other parts of the island. We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

The unit was a disappointment. It wasn't clean or updated giving it a tired, uncared for feeling. We will not return to this condo unit.

Everything about this condo and the view is wonderful, from the tucked-in setting near beautiful tropical plants overlooking the grounds and beach -- to the comfy bed and furniture. This was our ninth time at Lae Nani (because we think it's the best!), but our first time at this particular Lae Nani condo. Michael was a welcoming, helpful, friendly host at every stage -- from beginning to end. Our experience was everything we had hoped for, and we can't wait to return!

We’re thrilled to give this VRBO a 10 of 10, as it exceeded all our expectations. We walked in the door and were instantly drawn to the mesmerizing view of the ocean! The location is excellent within the island and within the development. The view of the beach is as lovely as it appears in the pictures (and yes, they let you walk and play on the grass). The grounds are beautifully manicured with plenty of beautiful flowers, bushes and trees all landscaped to sooth the soul! This 2nd floor location provides a clear view of it all AND even the lava rocks and sand seem to have been artistically arranged on the beach by God Himself. With a deck that has two comfortable chairs for lounging and a taller table with 4 chairs so you can view the scenery without obstruction from the porch railing.All the furniture inside the unit is more comfortable than it appears in the pictures, and airflow through the unit was refreshing. We were concerned that the unit might be too warm, as there is air conditioning only in the bedroom, but our concern was unfounded. We only used the AC at night and were very comfortable throughout the unit for the rest of the day. From the deck (lanai?), we watched people enjoying the ocean throughout the day, while we ourselves made use of the lovely swimming pool nearly every day. If you need the laundromat, or the tennis court, they are both close at hand.The host was outstanding both via phone or text! We would definitely stay here again!

Nice 2 bedroom condo with two ocean facing lanai. Third floor so some steps. No A/C but air circulates well with windows and ceiling fans. Location on a small beach walking distance to shops and restaurants and a paved Oceanside walking path. Convenient location for driving north or west.

The property was just as described - brand new carpets were installed and the kitchen was updated, but the rest of this unit needs a reno to catch up with the times. The furniture was dated and not super comfy, including the bed. We didn't spend much time sitting inside, though. Could for sure use a new mattress. There are no in-unit ACs so they did have portable AC units in the front room and bedroom, with fans running, which helped a bit. The view of the beach can't beat and the terrace is big enough to sit out even in the dumping rain and stay protected - loved enjoying the evening rain while sitting outside with our drinks. Had minimal communication with the property management team - nothing came up so no need to reach out. Property was sparkling clean and well-maintained. Be sure to note, this is a third-floor walk up unit with no elevator. I would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues but great otherwise. I appreciated how close this unit is to everything at the Coconut Marketplace - plenty of restaurant options and the island's biggest ABC store to help stock the kitchen. Loved that parking was included and easy to find a spot every evening when we got back.

“Steps To The Beach” is perfect. Our host and her team have done a wonderful job on this unit. From sunrise to after sunset, the views and sounds of the ocean are mesmerizing. The decor and furnishings are first class, the kitchen fully stocked, and the beach gear plentiful. We will be back. And soon! Thank you for sharing your bit of paradise with us.

We've stayed at Lae Nani several times before and this condo was perfect for our family vacation! It was beautiful and clean, had a fully-stocked kitchen that made it easy to cook and dine there, the bedrooms were great, and we loved the two lanais and all of the little things that made it a great stay - from the local treats to the boogie boards, beach chairs, and sand toys, to the use of the laundry. We would definitely stay again!

This was our second visit to the resort - first stayed in building 3 in 2019. Loved the unit with the waves crashing on the beach. Beautifully appointed with tasteful art, elegant furniture, and a fully stocked kitchen. We cooked quite a bit and had everything we needed. Love the color scheme and beachy vibe of the unit. I really wanted to return to use the pool! It is an awesome pool, clean and large enough to get in some laps. Aloha and Mahalo for our tranquil Kauai vacation.
