This condo is a pleasant short walk to beach access. Good snorkeling nearby. Turtles and monk seals on the beach every day. Many come in for overnight resting. The condo we stayed in is managed by another resort down the road. They were very responsive to our needs. Ie: providing 2 more folding chairs for the patio, a pair of scissors, and rods to place in sliding doors and windows to secure at night. (As we were on the ground floor) But, most windows were difficult to open. Unfortunately, kitchen lacked adequate cookware, unless you like Teflon. Glassware mostly old and funky. The kitchen cupboard doors stick badly and are soiled at areas used to open them. Bathroom exhaust fan was not working. Light in laundry not working. The TV was small and poor sound due to location, no streaming service available. These issues cannot be addressed to the managers of the condo, as they fall onto “the owners” responsibility to correct. How to contact.’the owner’ is not clear….? The ceiling fans were spot on tho for keeping us comfortable 👍 and the pool and hot tub wonderful 😊

Aloha Lynmari, Thank you so much for taking the time share feedback of your recent stay. We are happy that we were able to provide a few other items requested and will be reviewing with housekeeping and maintenance the items you mention in here that was not up to expectation. We are happy to hear that the ceiling fans for cooling the unit was enough for you folks and the pool/hot tub. We hope to welcome you all back again in the future with a more positive experience. Take care and have a Happy Easter! Mahalo,Kahea

Very pleasantly surprised.

Pros: Free Internet, Quiet
Very pleasantly surprised. Enjoyed the pool and great view from the various look-outs. Quiet, homey, no beach but a short walk to 2 popular beaches.

Would definitely stay there again

Pros: Free Internet, Quiet, no chickens
This condo development is older and thus maintenance is being done all the time. Salt water is very hard on everything. This being said the management was responsive when our door got stuck closed and the TV went out. The condo interior is dated, but we weren't in the condo that much, except to sleep and the bed was very comfortable. It was mostly quiet place, in walking distance to a beach with a lifeguard and great snorkling. On the property there is a great place to watch both the sunset and the sunrise. It doesn't get much better than that.

Great location, quiet, very good for the money

Pros: Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
As I understand, all units are owned by different people, so each unit is unique. We stayed in 1103. It was beautifully furnished, great beds, flat screen tv, kitchen had all you needed. Newer washer and dryer, two full bathrooms that appear to have been remodled recently. Great place for two couples, or a small family. Can't wait to get back !

Beautiful location on Poipu!

Pros: Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
We love this location and it is our second time staying here. It is conveniently located and quiet. Within a short walk to Shipwreck Beach. This time we stayed in an ocean view condo and loved the view and sounds of the rolling surf. I would recommend this to anyone interested in staying in a furnished condo with all the amenities. We hope to go again soon!

Good value

Pros: Free Internet, Quiet
This was our first trip to Kauai. Although the weather did not cooperate, the location of the condo was good, the condo had ample space and was well equipped. Most sites worth seeing were 1/2 to 1 hour away but we were on an adventure to explore the island. The ocean was nearby and only a brief, very windy, walk away. Luggage did not arrive at the airport so the airline delivered it the next day . The staff at the condo was pleasant to deal with.
