After much research, we booked this unit and couldn't have been happier! The view is just wonderful, so very close to the water, just like we wanted. Our adult son and his wife joined us and we were all very comfortable and not crowded. Since it's a two bathroom, each couple has their privacy. We are not the types to sit at the condo and are constantly on the run, but it was hard to leave this place! We both left our bedroom doors opened at night to hear the waves, it was wonderful! It had everything we needed, and was a bit dated but we didn't mind. We were happy to find such a wonderfuly location that was reasonable and we don't really care about granite countertops and such. We watched whales, dolphins and turtles from our lanai each day. Snorkeled almost every day of our vacation at the Lawai beach and it was so nice to be able to walk out each morning and be right there, shower and then continue on with our day. It's a lovely neighborhood and super close to some key shops, groceries, eating, etc. You really have everything right there that you need. This was the first time that we've stayed on the south part of Kauai and we enjoyed it very much, especially this time of year. Mel was super to work with and was very prompt with any questions that we had. We felt right at home -thank you so much for sharing your wonderful condo with us!!
