Dear Kauai. You are PRETTY COOL. You have many chickens and even a Sleeping Giant. Here are some 'cool island facts': chickens like sushi but like lizards more. If the hiking trails y[re on becomes scary and dangerous it is because you are LOST. Seals look like fat, legless dogs. All tourists look like this (drawing in guest book). Apply sunscreen evenly and often OR ELSE! Happy hour on Kauai is now known as every hour. There is a gecko behind the fridge. His name is Gary. THIS IS THE COOLEST PLACE ON EARTH!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The long trip from Madrid (Spain) is worth it. Discovering the garden island with its beaches, waterfalls, canyons and lovely people has been a life experience. The apartment is gorgeous, everything you can expect and even more with such amazing views. If we visited Kauai again we will try to be hosted here for sure, no doubt.

Arrived to a cute studio. View was good. Discovered leaking toilet which was beginning to fall through floor. Had to move out so they could replace floor beneath toilet. Allowed us to stay in main house. Then four days later had to move back to studio. Made arrangements to move things from house to studio before 10 am. Went to move things backinto studio and discovered someone else staying in it. Had to wait a couple hours for that person to leave and cleaning to take place. Delayed days activities. Asked for discount on rate for moving twice while there and was told " not a cooperation". Would not consider. Had to alao deal with roof leak above sllider door. Breakers kept popping and had to go below studio to garage area to reset. They lleft instructions on reseting the breakers but really? Not what I expected.Owner response: We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. However, your comments are misleading and unfair. First, you failed to mention that the power was going out all across the island and you were here during the most violent rains, winds, lightning and thunderstorms seen on the island in a decade. We are sorry you were so upset that circuit breakers popped while you dried your hair. When we got your next complaint about the toilet, we had a builder here within the hour to check it out. He said it was all fine, (your accusation that it was about to fall through is just plain dishonest), but that there had been a leak that did softened a piece of plywood in the subfloor. Because of your concern, we had it immediately replaced. We were surprised at how bitterly you complained when we offered you an entire house, on the same property steps away - equipped with the best of everything and luxury and views, and which normally rents for double what the studio costs - for the same price. When the floor was fixed a couple of days later, you then complained bitterly again, this time about moving back up just few steps into the studio you were so upset about leaving two days before. We accommodated your request to stay another night in the luxury house. During that night, our housekeeper had an emergency so we let her sleep in the studio and have it ready by 10 am for your move. This also upset you greatly because you wanted to move in "before 10." And, of course, the whole time you were angling for a discount. It is very rare that we get disgruntled types who are never, ever happy. Yet, when we offered to refund you all of your money to stay somewhere else, you declined.

Mahalo for providing such a great place to stay while visiting beautiful Kauai. Already planning a return visit! The trail along the Na Pali coast was magnificent despite the drizzle and mud, (don't wear any of your favorite clothes!) and what a surprise to come back and find the palms hindering our view had been trimmed! Thank you for going to such great lengths to make this such a special experience. Enjoyed contributing to the compost bin and thankful for the 'green-mindedness."

All the comforts we needed. Kapaa is such a great little town and we really enjoyed ourselves. Great food at Sushi Bushido, definitely check out Small Town Coffee for coffee is you are and early riser! Suggestions: Rent Kayaks and paddle the wailua river (or go with a tour if you need one), pedal the coastal path and check out HoloHolo charters out of Port Allen if you love the ocean (can get rough) and snorkeling!

We loved to be in this wonderful and cosy studio. The owners created a warm and loving atmosphere with beautiful details of decoration anywhere you look. We got married during our stay at Kauai and we enjoyed very much to have this peaceful refuge. This is a very good place to relax and to go on trips around the island. The owners helped us with every concern we had - as well before and during our stay. Sitting on the lanai but also just through the windows of the studio you have an incredible view on the mountain (sleeping giant) and the ocean. If you like seafood or vegetarian food we recommend "Hukilau lanai" near Coconut Market and we love the ahi wrap from the Kilauea fish market - near the lighthouse. mahalo again to P& D - we hope to be there again when we return to Kauai.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We loved the Green Coconut Studio, what a find! We did so many fun things on Kauai, our first time here. Loved he hike on the Na Pali Coast to Hanakapiai Falls, 8 miles round trip and very muddy. Bring a walking stick. The 11 mile hike on the Nualolo Cliff , Nualolo and Awa'awapuhi trail at Waimea Canyon has the best views. the hike to waipoo falls at Waymea Canyon is a scenic short and only 3 miles round trip. Kayaking down the wailua river was great with a trip to secret falls and fern grotto. Also did Hanalei River, pretty but our second choice of the two. Moloaa Beach makes for a romantic stroll. Anini Beach has amazing easy snorkeling with sea turtles and cool fish. What Else? Embrace the weather. You can usually find the sun somewhere we found , until the all-island torrential downpour today. Thanks for everything, this place is great. Sorry to take up so much space, but I forgot to mention thanks to the host for having such a great DVD selection. We enjoyed watching good films after eating yummy dinners cooked in your well-stocked and convenient kitchenette. Mahalo!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

I am missing the Green Coconut Studio as I write this! What a lovely view from the windows and lanai. What a clean spacious place in a great centralized location. We loved our stay here. We were out and about every day until almost dark because there is so much beauty to explore on the island, but we loved showering, cooking dinner, watching DVD's, and sleeping in this studio. Great DVD selection, by the way. I would highly recommend this place and I would love to return!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Mahalo! What a wonderful place to spend our anniversary. Perfect accommodations, what a wonderful island. We felt like locals the minute we arrived at the "Green Coconut Studio." we thoroughly enjoyed the gecko in the corner of the kitchen, chirping and watching over us. The view is spectacular from the lanai in the morning during our Kauai coffee and looking at the Sleeping Giant. The weather could not have been more perfect. We highly recommend the power hang gliding with Birds of Paradise and riding Harleys up Waimea Canyon. The waves were perfect for body surfing and the cooler, flippers, boogie board and beach chairs you provided were much appreciated. Mahalo again!Did you find this review helpful?
