Luke was great host. He kept us informed along the whole process. Guving tip on the area which was very much appreciated. The condo was clean and as described.
Good location, close to the main road but just far enough away to avoid most of the noise. Onsite community has great amenities - pool, grills and rinse station. Easily walkable to restaurants and shops. Killer view with the lanai. The unit came with activity gear that covers most of what you will want to do on the island. Host was very responsive and provided detailed instructions. Now the downsides, the unit especially the bathroom needs quite a bit of TLC. There was also a bit of an ant problem in the kitchen area. Mattress was on the hard side and bouncy, and the AC made loud screeching noises every so often when you run it. So in terms of what you pay for it, it might be what you could expect.
Beautiful perfect view of Wailua Bay.
Beautiful location, but dated units. The beach view is superb.
It’s a condo by the ocean, that’s what you’re paying for. Needs to be seriously updated. All the floors in the kitchen are warping. The bed feels like a prison mattress. My wife and I had to take turns sleeping on the couch. The towels need to be updated. The pillows need to be updated. Cooking utensils, pans, etc. minimal and old at best. This review is in comparison to an identical unit, in the same condo, in conjunction with the same stay. It was above and beyond with amenities, comfortable bed, cookware, etc. compared with this unit. It was also closer to the street which we were concerned about, but actually provided a better view. The headlights did not come directly at us every time we looked at the ocean due to how this unit is positioned.
Great location, loved being close to Coconut Marketplace, loved seeing the ocean so close every day. Unit was clean and comfortable. Everything as advertised, except price…definitely worth it.
The place was nice just needed a lot of updating. The view was great.
Spotlessly clean, beautiful view, super responsive hosts, and a short walk from the baby beach by lava lava beach club! Could not have asked for a better way to start our vacation!
Great ocean view. Not far from marketplace. Good location to go either direction on island.
We enjoyed our stay. We loved being right on the ocean with the pool right out the back door. We saw spinner dolphins one morning from our lanai. The condo was clean and we loved the location. If your looking for view and location and cleanliness this is the place to stay. If your looking for lavish and top of the line you would be disappointed but luckily that's not us so this was perfect. I definitely can see us staying here again if someday we make it back to Kauai.
Thoughtful about needs of a vaccinationer. Exactly as described on the listing and beyond.
Walked into a beautiful view of the ocean. Listened to the waves all night. Location was great. Was nearby many activities, shopping and eating. Room was clean, and very comfortable. Pool was nice too. Loved it!
The view was awesome and the place was exactly as described. Great communication before the trip made check in so simple. Great location for ready access to north and south areas. Good restaurants within walking distance. Pool was very refreshing after s long day at the beach. Would highly recommend. We had a great time.
The location was excellent but the unit needs to be updated. The linoleum was torn in the kitchen and the cabinets (particularly the doors) were in disrepair.
Loved the view from the lanai and appreciated the beach stuff immensely! Good location for our adventures north and south.
Nice pool. Quiet. Bed was comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Clean.
This was exactly as described and not updated which was nice for the value to save on basic instead of esthetic. Amenities are excellent. Very close to Lydgate beach which has a inclosed area for beginner snorkerlers. My 7 and 9 year old learned how to snorkel and see all the fish. It was safe and extremely wonderful. The missionary church in Kapaa is very friendly and great sermon on Sundays at 9am. They live aloha.
The place is a bit dated (but that’s ok, I already knew that by reading reviews. The area rug in living room is a tripping hazard
Nice unit. Will definitely be coming back!
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was in a great location with a fantastic view of the bay. There was a breakfast cafe, and a couple of good places to eat a few minutes walk away and Kapaa with shops and restaurants a short drive away. Luke & Kristi were great hosts - very responsive when we had questions. The condo was clean, the bed was very comfortable, the aircon in the bedroom worked well (although we barely used it in Feb) the washer and dryer were brand new, and the kitchen appliances all worked well. Beach towels, a cooler, beach chairs, boogie boards and so on were provided by the hosts. We were very happy with our choice and would happily stay here again.
Yeah it may be a little 70’s style, but that’s why we loved it :) For the price you cannot beat the view. Host Luke was awesome and responded to questions and such. Good location with a lot of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Thanks for having us!
This place was exactly as advertised! The host has thought of everything. Kitchen was well equipped. And extras like binoculars provided. Also beach chairs, etc!! The best part is the lanai! We watched whales one morning and surfers the rest. The location is great too. Central on Kauai to go north or south. We enjoyed our stay very much!!
Concerns: the rug in the living has severe buckles (a trip hazard as we found out!); one kitchen cabinet above range broken nearly hitting me on head; safe in bedroom locked-sent two messages to owner and never received reply; no stopper in bath tub; light on oven range did not work; dried mildewed pillow cases found in washer-had to rewash, dry, and put away; the apartment needs a deep cleaning especially under bed, nightstand, and lamps; middle closet door bedroom inoperable.messages to
Well really enjoyed our 1st visit to Kauai. The condo was in the perfect spot on the island. Also the condo was very nice and absolutely met our needs. We'll be renting from Luke again and hopefully this specific unit. Mahalo
Off the main road just enough and close to all of Kapaa
The condo was perfect. Location was easy to get to everything we wanted to see. The balcony view was beautiful. We would stay here again. The owners were very responsive to all our questions and their suggestions on what to see, recommendations for where to eat!
Everything was great except I had to spend over an hour trying to get the TV to work.
We had a wonderful time at this beautiful place. We loved waking up early drinking coffee and watching the sunrise over the ocean. Luke was a great host, my wife left her debit card and Luke mailed it home! We will definitely be back. Thank you Luke looking forward to our future adventures in your place!
The condo was dated, but overall we enjoyed our stay. Luke did tell me the condo is scheduled for renovation next spring. The air conditioning was great in the bedroom but the rest of the condo was very hot. The windows on the front door didn’t open so we couldn’t get a cross breeze to cool things off. I appreciate having beach towels and an umbrella provided. This condo works well if you plan to spend your days exploring the island rather than staying inside.
