The cottage, just up the hill in a residential area at the base of the Sleeping Giant Mountain, was exactly as represented and perfect for us Kauai is not that large of an island ; therefore the central location of the cottage made it easy to reach anyplace on the island you wanted to go.
Minutes away to the south is Lihue, airport, COSTCO, Walmart, Target. To the north Kapaa, Safeway and the best shave ice on the island ...Wailua Shave Ice (Strawberry/Mango with snow cap and foam). Day trips north are Hanalei and south/west to Waimea and Kokee State Park.
If you want to feel like you are at home, kitchen, laundry, screened lanai, lush yard then it’s perfect. If you want maid service, room service, walk to restaurants and bars or an all inclusive experience it’s not the place for you.
For us it was perfect, neighborhood cat “Tortilla” would saunter by to say hi and the outside garden shower was more than delightful.
