Beautiful place in a great area, close to beaches
This location is unbeatable for the ease of walking to the beach and nearby restaurants, as well as being centrally located, making it easy to get to the north, south, or west sides of the island. The air conditioning units made a big difference in the comfort of our stay.

We came as a trio needing a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom location. Based on the pictures, everything looked fine, but nothing special. We were surprised to find it much more updated than we expected by the pictures. The couch and beds were comfortable and had very soft sheets. The air conditioning was excellent in all parts of the house. What set this rental apart from most was the random thoughtful things included. We didn't realize it came with 4 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, a regular umbrella (we found out it rains a ton in Kauai), two pairs of flippers, and a full laundry set with the detergent included. It was also great to stay in Lihue, as we felt we could go to the north side or the south side at ease, not the mention some of the best food itself in Lihue. The beach near the apartment is super easy to get to, and we took advantage of that opportunity. There are also several great food options near the apartment. Finally, the covered parking was a lifesaver when it was raining hard. Would highly recommend this location and will consider coming here again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at Banyan Harbor. We are a family of five with three smaller kids. The property met all our needs. The hosts are friendly and responded right away. The kids loved the pool. We would stay here again.
The downstairs bathroom was a tight fit. You’ll hit your funny bone and knock off the toilet paper roll every time you use it. It felt very cramped for an adult. The upstairs bathroom was ok, the toilet is tiny and uncomfortable to sit on. The dining furniture is not very comfortable. The table chairs hurt your back when sitting in them for more than a few minutes and felt flimsy. The couch is a pull out couch and loud and creeky which sucks for the people staying below you. I’d avoid using it completely if you decide to stay here. But the couch being the pull out couch it is also very uncomfortable to sit on or lay down on, both pulled out and put together as a couch.
The stairs inside the unit are scary. There is a light but if you keep it on it’s pretty bright and the first smaller bedroom doesn’t have a full wall. Like the wall where the door is doesn’t go all the way to the ceiling so if the stairs light is on, they will get light into their room. There is also a nail sticking out on the stairs wall that will catch your shirts and arms if you are not careful. It’s painted over the same color as the wall so it’s hard to see, can be painful and paired with the darkness of the stairwell it’s not a good combo.
The smaller bedroom was tiny, a queen bed with two night stands, and a small closet to keep a bag but no dresser to put your cloths in. And again the wall did t go all the way to the ceiling so no sound privacy and not even a lock on the door.
Great location and great price!

We stayed 8 nights in Banyan Harbor resort F71 top floor and it was a nice stay. This unit is equipped with A/C in each room (worked fine), it has 4 beach chairs with umbrella (was very helpful for us), laundry and kitchen. They communicate with you timely and well. All staff in resort is helpful and friendly. We were on top floor and stairs pretty steep (they don’t have an elevator). If you have a poor health it might be hard to lift your baggage up there. All rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. There are lots of food places around. Overall it was fine, kind of what we expected; nothing fancy, but you got what you need for your vacation.

Condo was very clean and comfortable We liked having a covered parking space and found a short cut to the pool close to our front door. Condo was located walking distance to restaurants, a new coffee shop The Jammin’ Banana and the beach. Liked watching weekly ship arrivals.

The condo had some updates, nice counter tops and flooring. It does show it's age in other areas. Partially painted walls near the washer/dryer and older cabinets in the bathroom. Everything worked great. Fully functioning kitchen. Plenty of room for 4-6 folks. This was our third time staying at Banyan Harbor and we'll be back.
The condo was perfect . We had two units in the Banyan Resort. Location was perfect for walking to beach, shopping, and dining. ❤️
Clean.Close to everything (grocery, restaurants, etc) Walkable to nice beach, less than 10 minutes. The 2nd bedroom is a bit tight but comfortable. The only thing missing were wine glasses and wine opener otherwise fully equipped.
Our family of 8 plus two friends stayed in two separate units that were very close to one another - it worked great! The property is very conveniently located to airport, shopping and attractions. Beautiful beach right across the street. Loved having in unit washer and dryer. Kitchen is small but nice. The unit we stayed in had all bedrooms up stairs. The other unit had all rooms on one level. You could actually see the ocean over the roof top from our balcony and bedroom windows. Nice beach amenities including chairs and umbrella. Worked great for our group!
