Perfect location for a solo trip! Easy access to north or south shore, walking distance to the coconut marketplace for shops and restaurants. I loved my sunrise views from the lanai and enjoying dinner on it most evenings. Sleeping Giant Grill has some fabulous Mahi Mahi and was right nearby. Would absolutely stay here again!

The room was clean, the king size bed was comfortable, the facility was quiet, and the view was amazing!There was always a free parking spot available. The location is great because it is in between Poipu and Princeville. This facility has a medium-size refrigerator, toaster oven, and air conditioning.

The room was in a great location. The view was amazing, but it smelled very musty and we only had 4 bath towels for our 10 day stay. We also had 4 beach towels. We had to do laundry, but because it was a private owner we were not allowed to use the laundry facilities or any other resort perks. The Coconut market was fun and very close by. Poolside bar was great with friendly bar staff.

We are glad you enjoyed the view. We will check on the musty smell as we have never had that issue. The laundry room on site is for Aston guest that pay a daily resort fee. You could have requested a linen exchange for a fee which is less than a daily resort fee. It is also clearly noted in our information sorry you missed it. We hope you enjoyed Kauai and come again.

Great location right on the water and walking/biking path up the east coast of Kauai and down to Lydgate Beach state park. Free parking which was nice. Some beach and shade trees with lawn chairs so you can walk a few steps to relax to the calming ocean sounds. Convenient and Island- centric spot right next to Coconut Grove shops and a few other restaurants. Kitchenette very small for cooking but functional for basic needs. All in all, a great, peaceful place to stay for a week.

Couples Vacation

This area was perfect for us as a couple and was much more private than north/south shore. We felt less “touristy” but with plenty of things to do and easy access to north/south shore with a car. Highly recommend!

Everything was great! The patio furniture was different from the photos. There is now a heavy wood bar height table and chairs. They were heavy and not comfortable. There is now a loveseat sofa inside which was nice. The ocean view is wonderful. Shower water is nice and hot. Wifi is perfect. Lots of walkable food options. Very nice laudromat about half mile away. It has a coin exchange machine and credit options.

This property was very nice, close to restaurants and shopping. If you don't do stairs, this is on the 2nd story and no elevator. The view and sound of the ocean with the balcony was awesome.
