Getting Around:

When visiting Kauai, we highly recommend renting a car to enhance your experience and give you the freedom to explore the island at your own pace. While there are other transportation options available, such as the Kauai Bus, it's important to note that the bus service may not run as frequently as you might expect.

Having a rental car allows you to easily access all the incredible sights and attractions that Kauai has to offer. From the stunning Na Pali Coast to the breathtaking Waimea Canyon, having your own transportation gives you the flexibility to visit these iconic locations on your own schedule.

Other Things to Note:

All reservations require a 25% payment to hold chosen dates.

CANCELLATION POLICIES: 

• Reservations canceled 30 days or more prior to arrival date are 100% refundable.   

PESTS:

Kauai is in a climate that is considered to be both tropical and within a rainforest category, known for its lush flora and fauna.  The environmental factors create a situation where pests (insects) are nearly impossible to eradicate from every property constantly.  Many bugs fly in when a door is open at night or are simply small enough to come in through screens on windows and sliding doors.  For this reason, Koloa Kai engages regular quarterly pest control in every property to keep the pests at bay.  Despite these efforts, it is possible to have pests in your property, and if that happens, Koloa Kai will take all measures possible as quickly as possible to mitigate any issues.  Any monetary compensation, refunds or discounts will be given solely at the discretion of Koloa Kai and will only be available in situations where the company agrees that an infestation has occurred.  Koloa Kai reserves the right to investigate and provide remediation of any pest issue. The mere presence of pests in the property shall not constitute grounds for monetary compensation.

30-DAY MAXIMUM RENTALS:

Koloa Kai LLC provides only short-term rentals with a maximum reservation of 30 days.  Each reservation is fully documented and provides for a fixed date and time for check-in and check-out, rental rates, associated fees, and all other requirements required by local and state law.  If a guest books consecutive reservations where the check-out and check-in dates are concurrent, then a cleaning fee will be assessed, and a Koloa Kai designated cleaning professional/inspector will have unrestricted access to the property for the purposes of cleaning and inspection of the property.  During the time between reservations, described by the check-out time and check-in time specifically, the guests shall vacate the property so that the designated cleaning professional/inspector can conduct a full reservation clean and inspection in accordance with Koloa Kai’s standard practice.  Guest access to the property shall be restricted specifically to the date/times of the reservation documentation and may not be extended upon verbal or text message confirmation.

Hawaii Laws require that GET (4.712%), Kauai TAT (3.0%) and TAT (10.25%) taxes apply to the cleaning fee.

Interaction with Guests:

We will communicate by text most of the time. You will also receive emails from us. Feel free to call us at the Koloa Kai office as well.

Amazing house in the perfect location! House was very clean with all you could possibly need. Great kitchen set up and super comfy furniture! Tons of shops and restaurants in the area and even a sea turtle to see while snorkeling in the bay right out front. We will definitely be coming back!!!

This was our first family trip with our adult children. We could not have asked for a more perfect home for us!! There was plenty of room for all 6 of us. The home was spotless and well equipped, and so comfortable to hang out together! The views were spectacular as we watched the gorgeous sunrise and sunsets. We enjoyed sea turtles and the snorkeling on the beach was amazing. It was the vacation of a lifetime. Our host was very responsive and the entire stay was so easy. We are definitely going to be back to this beautiful, magical place

The house was beautiful. Our family enjoyed watching sea turtles, monk seals and paddle boarders in the adjacent harbor from our deck. My boyfriend is a chef and the kitchen was spacious and well stocked for when he cooked.

This property is beautiful, well maintained, and the views are stunning. It’s location is perfect for gentle swimming and snorkeling in the harbor. We saw countless turtles and even snorkeled with them. We saw at least 30 spinner dolphins hunting. The house provided ample sleeping spots for our family of 6. The decor in the house was professionally decorated and beautiful. It was so nice to have toiletries and towel provided. The beach toys were so fun. Thank you for thinking of all of the conveniences in the kitchen and around the house. You provided a safe and special place for our family to spend our vacation.
