This rental/condo is beautiful, spacious, and located in an amazing location. It also offers an amazing view. Parking is easy.The condo is very clean, well stocked with all the items you typically expect to find at a vacation rental (e.g., dishes, cups, pots, pans, soap, etc.), and the host was easy to work with. Check-in and check-out was easy and seamless. The little things/details matter and it sets apart one host from another host. I can say the little details matter to this host and we were thoroughly impressed. For example, the host provided a laundry starter kit. There were a few snacks on the counter. The bathrooms included some basic toiletry items, which isn't provided by all rental hosts. And when we checked in, the condo was cool. It was such a simple but notable detail because we had spent the day traveling and we were hot from carrying our luggage from our vehicle. As previously mentioned, the condo was super clean. While some rentals will ask you to take off your shoes, and we always do, we'll notice our feet/socks get dirty from walking around the rental. Not at this rental. It was very clean, which we appreciated.We would stay here again if we return to Kauai and would recommend to our family and friends.
The stay was fabulous! Killer views, stunning condo with room to spread out and so comfortable. The pool was fabulous. Everything was truly fabulous.
Everything about this beautiful place is just amazing! From the view to the location to the decor to all of the amenities - so relaxing, rejuvenating, and refreshing. The place has everything you could need from cooking, to bbqing to beach and pool toys. Will definitely recommend and can’t wait to go back!
Great stay…condo and host was perfect!!
What a beautiful place!!!!! We were truly in awe of the views from the balcony. The kitchen, bathroom, and closets had everything we needed!! The Vacasa property mngmt team was so helpful when we needed them!!!Suggestion- send a map of the property with check in email. Since it was already dark when we got to the property, we had no idea which building was ours. The directory map on the property is barely lit.
Wonderful condo! Surrounding area very nice. Convenient to Hanalei and beyond. Unable to do the climb down to hideaway beach unfortunately. Definitely would recommend!
Loved being so close to hideaway beach (it’s a struggle for my old joints, but well worth the short/strenuous hike, with incredible beauty and perfect size waves for my 9 and 11-year old kids)). All the beaches on the island are mostly empty. Wish there were more food options nearby, but that’s what happens on a small island- so, can’t really complain. Well stocked kitchen, lots of towels, extra mattress and bedding available for kids. Worked great.
We had an amazing week at this condo—it was the perfect getaway! The home clean, with comfortable beds and cozy living spaces. The views from the condo are absolutely stunning. The setting was so peaceful and quiet, with only the sound of the ocean in the background. We enjoyed spending time at the pool, playing tennis with the rackets/balls provided, and relaxing on the secluded beach just below the condo. It’s easy to want to stay around the condo, but its convenient location made it easy to explore nearby restaurants and other beautiful beaches just a short drive away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beach escape.
Beautiful condo. Great location.
Well equipped apartment with high quality amenities. Beautiful view. Very clean and appreciated the midstay complimentary cleaning. Great location. Hideaway beach at the doorstep and enjoyed the morning snorkel. Saw several turtles and many colourful fish each time. Shops and other bea he’s close by.
This condo was the perfect home in the perfect location for exploring this tropical paradise. Impeccably clean with extremely nice windows and patio doors. The balcony was amazing for watching the sunset or boats on the ocean. The private grill was great to have and was in very good condition, especially for a vacation rental. The bed was very comfortable, as was the other furniture. The high-quality snorkeling gear, beach chairs and cooler were awesome for heading down the short "trail" (it is extremely short but also extremely steep, but also with very sturdy rope-railings) to Hideaways Beach, which has some of the best snorkeling in the area, or maybe anywhere, as well as checking out some of the other great beaches in the area. The snacks they left us were a nice touch too. The kitchen was very well stocked, including with lots of pantry basics. Don't bother buying any salt, pepper, spices etc. before you go check in and see what's there already. The entire condo complex is extremely quiet and peaceful and well kept, although we never bothered trying the pool. We were warned about construction noise, but never heard or saw any construction at all, nor did we see anything that seemed like it needed renovation. The parking lot seemed freshly paved. Maybe the construction is over and the warning was outdated? Anyway, certainly no problem there. It is a very short walk to the super-luxe One Hotel, and the whole experience of having drinks and appetizers there and watching the sunset over Hanalei Bay was worth the price. A couple comments, just to be aware:
As other reviews mentioned, the water pressure is very weak. The nice-looking soaking tub is a tease. We did try it once but there is not enough hot water to fill it more than knee-high. We never ran out of hot water for showers though (due partly to the low flow, of course), and the dishwasher and washing machine worked fine, so it was not otherwise a problem. We just put the soaking tub out of our minds, used only the gigantic beautiful shower, and never thought about it the rest of our trip.
Another comment I would have is that Vacasa put out *extremely* fragrant scent-jars around the apartment. Some might actually like them, but I found them overwhelming and at least a couple of them made me nauseous. The scent was so strong and pervasive in the condo that the beach towels still smelled of it when we took them outside. Early in our stay, I put them in the spare bedroom, which we were not using, and shut the door, and it got better. So my tip for other guests is that if you are someone who is sensitive to strong perfumy smells, you might want to include a request in your reservation for Vacasa to remove the perfumes in advance of your check-in.
We couldn't have found a more perfect place to stay for our Hawaiian getaway. This condo is magical with unobstructed ocean views from every room. We spent lots of time in the two sitting rooms or on the lanai sipping a coffee or glass of wine and soaking in the gorgeous ocean view - or view of the stars at night. The condo offers lots of amenities, such as a lovely welcome basket, and was quiet and private. There are lots of activities available walking distance, and we snorkeled nearly right off the condo every day (some of the best snorkeling we found on the entire island. We saw multiple turtles every time we were in the water.) Other water sports, such as paddle boarding and canoeing, and a beautiful spa are also available at The One Hotel which is right next door to the condo. Additionally, we spent lots of time checking out restaurants and additional beaches in Hanalei Bay which was just a quick drive away. Overall - 10/10 experience. Couldn't recommend enough.
We loved the views and the location. The unit itself is a bit worn and dated but given that we were mostly out exploring this was not an issue for us. The unit was clean except for the washing machine which had had an exceptionally strong mildew odor. Running a sanitization run did not eliminate the odor.
We also had problems with the master bed, which had partially collapsed on one side making it a single. Although it was fixed the second day of our stay, coordinating with the maintenance crew was not the vacation experience we had hoped for and we were pretty surprised when we asked for a 1-hour later checkout it was denied. It would have been a small token given the issues we had with the bed.
You should note that this is not a true 2 bedroom. The "master" bedroom has a privacy blind for the wall facing the ocean, so there is no sound privacy form the living room.
An absolute gem in Kauai! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning ocean views. Despite the intermittent rain, we couldn't have asked for a better setting to relax and recharge with the soothing sound of rain on the roof. The condo itself was cozy, impeccably clean and outfitted with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
One of the highlights was having so much within walking distance. The hidden beach right below offered some seclusion from the hustle and bustle of tourist crowds, and also happens to be a great surf and snorkeling spot. There’s also the 1Hotel nextdoor with fantastic food and drinks. When we weren't spending time at the beach, we were having a blast playing pickle ball right outside the condo, or swimming in the pool. Having access to pickle ball paddles, beach chairs, and snorkeling gear provided in the condo was a huge plus!
Thank you to our wonderful hosts for sharing this slice of paradise with us. We can't wait to return!
The unit is gorgeous! The view is beautiful and the amenities are over the top! Could not be better! Highly recommend and hope to return soon!!
We loved everything about the condo, i.e., the spectacular view, very clean, great location, great amenities in the condo. The owners have everything you can imagine that you need, from the kitchen, activity toys, etc. The bed queen size bed in the spare bedroom has been changed out to a king size bed.
