We had the best time at Islander on the Beach in Kauai. We stayed for four nights. The location is amazing. We could see the ocean from our room. The Coconut Marketplace was in front of the facility. The Coconut Marketplace is a gem. Lots of restaurants to choose from, the Island Marketplace is great. The Islander on the Beach location makes it very easy to go to all parts of the island. I highly recommend this condo.

Great location, with a very nice ocean view from lanai. Might as well have been ocean front. Second floor not a problem. Unit is small but has all the amenities we needed and we would go back again.

We loved our stay and enjoyed being on the beach. Morning sunset and evening hot tub. Great location for enjoying both sides of the island.

Kapaa is the best location in my opinion. You are conveniently located for events driving North to Princeville area and beaches. Then going West to Waimea canyon. Property and room are absolutely beautiful!
Manager was very responsive and answered questions quickly.
Would stay here again!

Stayed for a week and did all the things I wanted to do. The location of the condo could not have been better. The view was very nice and the proximity of the beach was perfect. The fact that Coconut Market Place was right next door was terrific. Plenty of restaurants, shopping, and essential services was great.

We loved staying here for our time in Kauai. Very short drive from the airport. We loved being so close to the water and the boardwalk along the beach was a beautiful walk. Lava Lava Beach Club next door is a fantastic restaurant as well. Overall very happy with the experience. Hassle free check in, no parking issues. THe market nearby is great too.Highly recommend.

Islander on the beach is the ideal getaway. The property is situated in a great shopping and dining area. The sunrise and beach was great. We even had seals sleeping on the beach enjoying the sun.
We would definitely come back here.

We loved our stay at this property. It seemed the perfect location to get to all spots on the island. Having the beach right there was a definite plus although the water at the location isn’t super swimable due to a lot of rough waves but still pretty to look at. Would definitely stay here again!
