We had a great stay. The view here is incredible. Being able to see the ocean anywhere you look inside and on the lanai is so amazing. We saw lots of whales, turtles, dolphins just lounging! The path to shipwreck beach was great. The pool and hot tub were enjoyed by our kids. Truly a beautiful place to relax!

Amazing views of sunset every day. Whale watching, turtles swimming, spinner dolphins and a monk seal! All viewed from the wrap around deck. Great location to take day trips or hang out locally.

Beautiful condo and view

The condo is beautiful. It was clean and the view is amazing. The pool and jacuzzi were big pluses. We would of loved some beach gear, chairs umbrellas, small ice chest. We would definitely stay here again.

Everything was great except the brown film on the floor which turned a few pair of my socks brown. We believe it was probably a haze of grout, as the grout looked fresh, so no big deal. It is a very comfortable unit and the balcony and the view are fantastic! Kitchen is equipped well.

Wonderful!

Place was awesome. Wasn't easy to find in the dark, but what a wake up to unbelievable ocean views. We loved to start and end our days on the magnificent patio. We loved Kauai and hope to be back soon! Thank you for letting us stay at this wonderful property. Scott and Family.

This stay could have been really great. The unit has been very nicely remodeled and the patio is spectacular. However, upon arrival, we found the A/C unit in the primary bedroom was not working. The host responded very quickly to our concerns but was unable to fix the unit while we were there. Normally, we would have tried to sleep in the room, but when we placed a fan by the patio window to get fresh air circulating, the fan would bring in hot air from the living room A/C condenser, resulting in a room that felt like a heater was on and reached temps in the high 80s. We ended up moving the king mattress to the living room for two members of our party to sleep on. Ultimately, we made it work, but would have appreciated advance notice from the host that the A/C was not working.

Aloha and mahalo for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Makahuena 5201. What this guest shared is accurate, and we’re sorry that the AC in the master bedroom went out during their stay. The AC was working properly prior to their arrival. In fact, our previous guests checked out on August 2nd, just three days before this guest’s arrival, and reported no issues with the AC during their stay. As part of our preparation for each new arrival, our team turns on the AC to ensure the property is cool, comfortable, and welcoming for our guests. It was during this pre-arrival check that we discovered the AC in the master bedroom was no longer functioning. Once we became aware of the issue, we immediately contacted our AC vendor and proactively reached out to the guest to let them know. We also provided generous compensation without the guest having to ask, as we believe in doing the right thing and putting ourselves in our guests’ shoes. Ultimately, we’re very sorry that their stay wasn’t the experience we strive to provide. We appreciate their patience and understanding while we worked to address the unexpected issue, and we remain committed to ensuring our guests have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Mahalo, Kauai Exclusive Management

Kauai Ocean Dream

This was our first time staying east of the Poipu green belt, and we LOVED it! You could see the resort lights to the west, and you could walk both to the popular Poipu beaches, and ship wreck beach. We found this condo to be more relaxing and natural than others we stayed at. You can watch both the sunrise and sunset from this condo, and the waves and views were spectacular! We loved walking the heritage trail in the morning and evening. It is humid and wet in the main living area because you are literally a stones throw from the ocean cliffs, but it did not bother our family. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms, and the bedrooms can be closed off for sleeping. We would consider staying at this location again if it was available. Mahalo:)

Great Views, location & stocked with beach gear!

Enjoyed our 5 night stay here. The unit is stocked with everything you need. We especially enjoyed all the beach gear - made life so easy! The views on the deck are spectacular. Watched the sunset whenever we were home and ate all meals on the patio. Can watch the surfers and just enjoy the amazing view. Not having A/C can be an issue, but if you utilize the fans & open the right windows properly you can get a great breeze going through the unit. We didn't utilize the pool or hot/tub as we kept busy exploring during the day. The only recommendation I would make is the blue towels should be replaced as they had an odor to them even after we washed again. Minor detail. We were able to do wash every night and keep on top of keeping the unit clean. It is centrally located to everything in the area and has a great Poke shack on site. Great place to stay!

All about the view!

Our favorite part of this rental was sitting on the Lanai every morning, enjoying watching sunrise and the waves crash against the rocky shore below. Even saw whales , dolphins and turtles from the Lanai. The second was the spaciousness and layout. The complex was quiet and safe and we had no issues with parking. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 were : The guest bathroom shower having very poor to no water pressure due to a bad tub spout which did not get fixed during our stay(the management company said they ordered a spout) . The trash can in the kitchen was half full of garbage when we arrived and the place was fairly clean but not as clean as it should be. Some other things didn't work but weren't significant enough to worry about. The AC in both bedrooms worked great as did everything in the kitchen. Plenty of amenities . Overall great stay, amazing island. Would stay in this condo again

Amazing location. The pictures are every bit as real in person with waves crashing right outside the lanai and amazing sunrises (didn't see many of those) and sunsets every single night! Good luck finding a better oceanfront view on the entire island. So why not 5 stars? There was no A/C in the living/kitchen area, so everyday was a humid 85-90 degrees. You almost had to sit on the lanai so you could get a breeze. The bedrooms had split units so as long as we kept the doors to them closed, they did very well. The other issue I had was with the lack of flexibility with the living room TV. You needed to log into the TV to add an app and was told that was not an option (wanted to watch YouTubeTV and ESPN) for college bowl games. Never had that issue at other VRBOs but I will say the customer service was fast. At least they told me NO quickly! Haha. Summary - great location with views that trumped the issues noted above.
