Thank you for the review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the views from the deck and the convenient location. It’s great to hear the home had everything you needed and that you felt comfortable during your stay. We’d love to host you again anytime—come back soon.
The location was great. Really nice to be able to walk to the beach and local restaurants. The condo was nice, but could use some updates.

Mahalo for your feedback and 4 star review Chaoyang. We are happy to hear you enjoy the location and look forward to your return stay, Aloha.
This place was great for many things, walking distance to the beach, a well equipped kitchen, and a comfortable and rather large space with a view of the ocean and sunsets. A few limitations too, there is no actual washer and dryer present, and the place is not optimally maintained, of note there were several poorly functioning screen doors, one of which was actually falling out of its tracks, and there was no attempt to fix this during our week stay. The curtains were torn in some places and not opening and closing easily. Aside from these shortcomings, it still gets a good rating but with room for improvement.

Loved the property. My only negative was the queen mattress was very uncomfortable.

The condo is very dated but worked well for us. There is no AC but if you have the ceiling fans on and the windows open it wasn’t too hot. Honestly the only time we were there was to sleep. Beautiful location, great view. You can walk to the beach and food within a few minutes.

This place has so much potential, the space and location are amazing as well as the Nihi Kai property is really well managed, unfortunately we faced many issues during our stay, many cockroaches (we expected some but was not normal…nightstands and beds), the mattresses were very uncomfortable and when we checked they were from 1979!, the dryer does not dry the clothes or beach towels -it would takes 3 cycles to be ready for the next day, the kitchen cabinets and bedroom drawers had a smell we had to wash cups, plates and our clothes after unpacking and there was some potential hazard with bathroom doors not working properly and mirror lights missing with open outlets at kids height. Some of the issues were fixed during our stay that’s why I’m giving 3-5 but the beds were something we couldn’t believe. A easy fix for guests to be comfortable. I would not recommend based on current state but as mentioned has great potential.

overall the property was fine. Some issues were: The unit is very outdated. They do not clean the unit well at all. The cabinet knobs were all nasty sticky. Underneath the couch was very dirty with large pieces of waste. They should move the furniture when cleaning, it was obvious they didnt. Front door was not secure. When the front door is locked, one can still easily turn the doorknob and come in.

Paperwork said there would be a safe in the room and we looked everywhere for it. There was not one
It was very hot when we arrived and no air conditioning. Need fans upstairs and down, we had to carry them up and down the stairs. The beds were comfortable.

Mahalo for your review Mary. We are sorry that the weather was a little warmer the week you were here. Usually, the ceiling fan and standing fans do a great job of keeping things comfortable in the loft. We’re glad you found the beds comfortable and appreciate your insights. We hope to host you again in the future. Aloha.
We enjoyed our stay at Nihi Kai #705. The unit was quite spacious, and the location is fantastic. Easy walking to beaches, and short drives to restaurants and shopping. In the unit itself, the furniture and fixtures are dated, and we had some trouble with the toilets. Management was responsive, but the fixtures are just old and there wasn't much to be done. The beds were comfortable, but the slatted doors meant there wasn't much privacy. The kitchen had most things we needed, however the microwave was very small, and seemed old - it did work though. Overall it was fine, but with compromises.

The do not clean properly. The fridge was extremely dirty on the front of it. No air conditioning. Blood on the hid a bed mattress and they just flipped cushions around to not see stains.
For the amount we paid to stay there it was a cheaper property on the island I would stay there again. It was at a beautiful location and the property managers were very nice . I really enjoyed my stay there except those few things that are fixable.

Aloha Rachael. We are sorry that you were not happy with the housekeeping in your condo. We do clean all properties before and after a guest arrival. This is the first we are hearing of any housekeeping issues for your stay. We would have sent our cleaners back to assist you had you just let us know. We even asked via text message if everything was okay shortly after your arrival and you did not respond. We will be sure to inspect the sleeper sofa mattress and make a replacement if needed. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Next time, please let us know if we can do anything to make your stay more comfortable. Aloha.
We are a family of four making our very first visit to Kauai. After reading tons of online opinions we decided to stay on the South. We 'stumbled upon' this property and were pleasantly surprised by everything - from amenities, to floor plan and even the water pressure. All professionally managed.
That said, I wanted to especially single out the location - it's in walking distance from the best beach on the island (based on our own research) for snorkeling. It has an amazing spot where migrating sea turtles come out to rest - during the day there are several, but as sun sets more and more come out. One day we counted 45+ turtles! Unbelievable experience! The rest of the beach is calm and shallow and great for families with kids.
Highly recommended!
Very rundown. Furniture old and uncomfortable. Not one comfortable place to sit in the living room. Drapes and rods not working and dirty. Washer and dryer broken. No safe in the unit. Front door doesn't lock properly. Rust on front of refrigerator. Microwave was awful.

Aloha Rick. This unit carries an Island Casual rating. This means that it is a great balance of value and comfort, and while it has not been updated, the unit is well-maintained and clean. While you were here, the washer and dryer broke, and we did our best to repair it for your stay. Because we were unable to, we offered you a professional fluff and fold laundry service. The door does lock properly. There is a small button near the handle that prevents it from automatically locking when you leave. I believe the maintenance team came by to show you how it works. The unit has never had a safe and that is not listed in the room's amenities. We can evaluate the furniture in the unit. Previous guests had not mentioned that it was uncomfortable. We understand that things like the comfort of beds, furniture, and decor are all quite subjective. We are sorry if you didn't find the furniture comfortable. Lastly, if we had known you needed help with the microwave or that the curtains were not working properly, we would have come right over to address them, but you never let us know. Next time, please reach out if anything doesn’t seem right, and we’ll be sure to come right over and help. Next time, please consider booking a Premier or Premier Plus unit, that will be nicely updated.
