Family of 5, plus 2 friends had a wonderful stay at Honu La'e. Home is perfectly laid out, kitchen is well-equipped, and lanai is heavenly. Location is conveniently located walking distance between beaches and shopping/restaurants. We hope to return to this lovely home!

This was a fantastic home for our family of eight! The view of the ocean was so picturesque and the house is walking/running distance from the beach, a little shopping center, and the athletic facility. I personally was thrilled that the house had AC and found both the indoor and outdoor areas perfect for our needs. We had one minor snafu with the AC not working properly in one of the bedrooms, but the rental agency got someone out within 48 hours to fix it. My only other comments would be that the front gate didn't seem to lock properly, there are noticeable power lines that impede the view slightly, and the road in front of the house seems to be a frequent hangout for locals who will park their trucks and drink beer in the evenings, occasionally directly in front of the house. Overall, I wouldn't consider these dealbreakers, but definitely something to be aware of when booking. I personally really liked this house and would stay here again if back on Kauai!

Good, not significant issues. The pool needed to be drained from the rental party prior to us, so we didn't get much pool time.

The house has potential and is nice however, when we stayed there the pool was so cloudy you couldn't see the bottom. There were only three steps. The management company saw it before we arrived and sent out a pool guy to shock the pool but it still looked really bad. The response was that we should use the pool at the athletic club but we rented a house with a pool not a house that we would have to drive a mile or so to use a shared pool. No one came out ever to see the pool still looked really bad. Also, one of the bedrooms had bugs all in the bed. I am not sure what kind but I did get a bunch of bites. They asked for a picture of them but that was hard to do and the response from the management company was that an exterminator could not come out until we left but they could drop by a roach motel (which they never did.) So we just closed that room and decided not to go back in. Especially, with young children we thought it should have been handled better. For the price, I was kind of shocked at the poor service from the management company and their lack of caring responses. I wish I could upload the photos just to show my side. I hate leaving bad reviews but the house has potential but the service was bad. I have yet to get a response from the management company other than the one call.

My husband & I wanted to spend some family time together with our three son's, daughter in law and a few other family members. What a perfect place Honu La'e was. There is plenty of space and the rooms are very nice. My favorite was the patio and the pool. Absolutely relaxing and memorable. Just across the street is the ocean and there is an abundance of Sea Turtles you can sit and watch. We loved watching people surfing and snorkeling as well. Our family plans to visit again and although the kitchen is fantastic we ate out at many great restaurants that were very close by. Oh and another must is the Kauai Backcountry Adventures! We all went and had an amazing time tubing down the sugar cane water canals. I absolutely recommend this location and I was very pleased to deal with Celeste at the rental office as well as meet Vicki when we dropped off some of our local wine to say thank you.
