Great property. In the middle of the east side of the island the location gives 30-45 minutes drive to the Princeville (north side) of the island or the south side. This unit was very clean. The resort is simple and not grand but relaxing. The view from the balcony and unit is just as it shows in the pictures. The air conditioning worked great. Only downside is while there is laundry it’s not in the unit, there is a shared laundry facility at 1.50 a load and the machines are a little dated. Not a grand resort but the location was great and this unit itself was VERY nice. We will rent again if we have the opportunity to return. Property is on the sunrise side of the island

Beautiful Condo

We enjoyed our stay at Pono Kai A201. This is a recently remodeled two bedroom two bathroom condo. Perfect for our family of four with plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The balcony overlooks the ocean as does the master bedroom. And the location of the condo is protected from the high winds in Kapaa. We appreciated the split AC units during the night. Although there aren’t any laundry machines in the unit, they are nearby in the complex.Thank you!

Spectacular!

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: Spectacular in every way! Location, location, location! Right in the heart of Kapaa and walkable to all points of interest. Being on the bike path was a definite plus. For those concerned with too much foot or bike traffic, it's not an issue. This was our 5th time on Kauai but first stay at Pono Kai. Spoiler alert - it won't be our last! This particular unit was very clean, spacious, and has everything you need for your stay. The master bedroom has unforgettable sunrises every morning. Do yourself a favor and don't hesitate to book this unit for your stay!

Halau Trip from Sacramento

Great location and large size condo. We chose a vacation rental so we could be able to cook at home. We had a great Halau trip and enjoyed the aloha spirit all day every day during our stay, especially the woman who gave as Manapua at Hamura Saimin after they had sold out.

Kapaa Stay

This property was in a good location, on the beach, with a sidewalk along the beach. It was a short walk along the beach walking path to Kapaa restaurants and shops. Safeway was a short drive away, and Kapaa was a central location for exploring the island. The apartment rental was as advertised. Very comfortable. We could see the sun rise every morning from our balcony.

Check in was easy. Condo was clean and beds were very comfortable. View was amazing! Location, steps from the beach and walking path along the shore was perfect for daily sunrise watching. A/C was nice to have, but not needed much due to island breeze. Appreciated beach chairs, cooler, and boogie boards in the unit!

Great Choice for a nice family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great Location; Very Well maintained; Very professional and helpful staff; Kapaa "downtown" right there; Everything went well. The only suggestion for improvement is 1. Option for cleaning service especially for families renting for a week or more2. The kitchen can be slightly better equipped (not that it was bad but it can be better)

Very deceiving advertisement of the place..

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not air conditioned, room was stinking hot when we walked in the evening, infested w/flies. Took an hour to kill them and they still kept coming in. AC was the main purpose we rented the place. I was traveling with an elderly.

Great Location and beautiful ocean view

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit has a wonderful location in Kapaa and on the island. Pros are location, great ocean view, two bedrooms and bathrooms, and end/top unit in the condo complex. Cons are outdated unit with foil wallpaper in the bathrooms, molded caulk in master bathroom, no bathroom fans, no air conditioning, and carpet all throughout unit. This unit worked well for our family of four. It would have been nice to have a more updated unit with AC, but overall this unit works well if your spending your days outside on the island.

Perfect location!

This unit, located at the edge of a beautiful resort, was just steps away from a very swimmable beach in January. Amazing to wake up every morning and watch the sunrise over the ocean from our balcony and enjoy the sunsets on the beach. Easy walk into town, spacious unit stocked with all the basics, good pool, and lots of games/activities on site. Downsides - could really use refreshed carpet and paint and the couch needs to be cleaned. There is no central air, but there are a lot of fans. A little warm in the evenings after everyone showered but cooled off at night. Temps in the high 70s when we were there. Warning - the roosters are not a joke! They are up and outside the windows by 4:00. Bring earplugs.

Can’t beat the view!

This is a very comfortable condo with a king-sized bed in one room and two twins in another bedroom and two full bathrooms. The living room has a large comfortable couch and a rocking chair. The view from the living room and from the bedroom looks across a lawn and a bike path to the wide-open ocean. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook our meals and dish washing soap was provided. The management company for this private rental had a nice welcoming gift on the kitchen table when we entered and they made sure we knew they were available if we needed help with anything. One day we rented bikes (right on the bike path walking northbound about a half-mile) and the ride was one of my favorite days. You can ride southbound all the way to Lydgate Beach. If you are a chocolate lover, explore the possibilities at the Lydgate Farm (a car drive).
