Stunning views in a spacious condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This ocean is your backyard in this beautiful condo! We enjoyed our stay, and being able to sit on the porch and watch the whales every day. The condo is a little older but has new appliances and bathrooms. There was some noise from the upstairs neighbors on some days, but mostly it was a quiet, serene slice of paradise. The property was clean and they provided everything you could want for a Hawaiian vacation; coolers, chairs, boogie boards, towels, and even books! The kitchen was very well stocked with a variety of appliances and utensils, and plenty of cookware, dishes, glasses, and cups. The property management was helpful and polite. I would definitely stay here again!

This property is so well located. On the water, beautiful views, beach walking in either direction in minutes, local shops, fun restaurants.... It is also fairly quiet, except for the crashing of the surf. A great place to stay if you want to explore Kauai, after you soak in the morning quiet and ocean view from the lanai.

It’s All About the View

We enjoyed watching the whales and beautiful assortment of birds right from the lanai. The beds were very comfortable. A for that! However, the property is quite dated and there is nothing luxurious about it. The primary bedroom does have a commode and shower, but the shower stillIs TINY! The unit is very nicely appointed with beach chairs, etc. All in all, we would stay again just for the view. Also, the pool is very small - truly just for dipping - but peaceful.

Mature Unit, Outstanding View

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A very nice place to stay, this unit had an outstanding view of (as in >30ft from) the ocean. It is older, so it could use some TLC (e.g. bring your own Roku), but all-in-all it was a pleasant place for a Kauai trip.It is well located for any activities you'll want to undertake!

Second Time, both great!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time two years before, this time was even better: New appliances; new ductless air conditioning (albeit, a bit noisy for about an hour after shutdown); walk-out to front lawn; improved swimming pool and grill. Improvement request: you really need to improve the sliding door lock in the second bedroom; or, at least highlight the secret to making it work. Had advance contact with Management company, always great! No problems.

Nice Property - A lot of ants though

The communication and booking were easy. The property itself was nice, but could use a thorough deep cleaning. There were ants everywhere: kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms. We couldn't leave anything on the counters without it getting attacked by ants. The floors were cleaned with a very slick cleaner, and felt very oily/ greasy. Other than those minor issues, the view was beautiful, the mattresses/ pillows were great, and the kitchen was very well stocked. My family very much enjoyed our stay.

Amazing location and view but read the entire review

This is an amazing condo with million dollar view and location. Whales and turtles everyday to great us and we would stay again. The only issue was how dirty the place was, including dirty sheets, kitchen and dirty underwear with pad in the main bedroom. We washed the sheets grabbed cleaning supplies at Walmart and took care of iit and it was amazing after that. Management was responsive and offered to refund some but then we never heard back from them and no refund for cleaning. Even after all of that we would not hesitate to stay again and again!! This place is amazing.

We won't stay here again

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The decor is 70's. The unit has so much mildew and musk that I had to sleep on a mattress in the living room with the door and windows open. The parking is horrible and the outside entrance is very dark. The only good thing about this unit is the view. We stayed 10 days and will not rent a unit here again.

Views don’t make up for maintenance issues

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hot water heater was broken for 2 full days and needed to be replaced. Smoke alarm was broken and incessantly made sounds for 2 hours. Both issues were fixed but are examples that the condition of the appliances and maintenance of apartment caused our stay to be much less than optimal. View makes up for a lot of negatives but I would expect that paying 5,000$ for our stay everything would have worked and not needed maintenance to come multiple times. Late checkout request was denied, also disheartening as we had a 4pm flight out.

"In a vacation rental home or condo, you really feel like you're living here," reflects Lucy, "so bringing together home owners and guests to achieve the 'best fit' is only a part of our distinguished reputation. Our responsibilities are twofold. For our owners, we provide the best management and maintenance services so they can rest easy, knowing their homes are meticulously cared for, since they may be thousands of miles away from their investment. For our guests, we believe they should be treated like royalty." And, it is the respect for the guest that gained Kauai Vacation Rentals recognition throughout the world. A friendly team dedicated to serving the needs of guests, with attention to all the details, makes it all possible. "A vacation to Kauai is so meaningful," adds Lucy. "For some, it may be the trip of a lifetime. For others, it may be a yearly event. This is a splendid place to relax. Our guests are 'energized' when they go home. That's what we mean when we say, 'magical Kauai.' " This genuine business model embodies the Hawaiian word, 'Aloha,' and it has gained much recognition within the industry and business venues, including numerous awards. Many glowing articles have been written, from Kauai Business & Real Estate Magazine, Hawaii Business, and internationally distributed Travel & Leisure Magazine to famed Fortune Magazine. In fact, Lucy Kawaihalau was personally honored with coveted awards from the Small Business Administration and Kauai Chamber of Commerce for her successful business achievements. Lucy concludes, "I am deeply grateful for our recognition and awards. Yet, it is the phone call, with heartfelt and glowing remarks about a visit to Kauai from a satisfied guest that brings us great joy. Therein lies our greatest achievement."
