Oceanfront Lae Nani Beach Resort Luxury Ground Floor on Wailua Bay

Mahalo! We look forward to your next visit.

Glad to hear enjoyed your stay and was able to explore the benefits of our location. You are welcome back anytime!

Thank you for your nice review which incidentally is posted on my birthday! A nice present.

Glad to report kids love our condo- being on the ground floor let's them run around more, and there are no balcony safety issues. My kids were running back and forth all day fishing, boogieboarding and swimming in the pool.

Mahalo nui loa! Very kind words. We hope you return again to enjoy Kauai, and sunny days with evening sunsets!

Actually, the beach is walkable at various places in the bay and along the coast north. But at higher tides it may not. August is the hottest month and if the trade winds back off, yes it can be warm however our ground floor condo has 11 foot high ceilings and the heat rises so it isn't like upstairs units.

Ironic that I leave for Kauai to change management and do some upgrades just when I get this review. Some clarifications: we state on vrbo that there is not a sofabed and that we have a tall blow up queen and a fold up futon which is best for kids. But we are not promoting this for 4 adults. We have many longer stays, especially in winter that is suitable for a couple. There are 3 very large dresser drawers and 2 smaller drawers in each bedside table as shown in the photos. The closet has extra linens, pillows, and beach towels and a safe on the shelf and it is possible that beach stuff was not stored back in the lanai storage box by the cleaning staff. Normally there is a small laundry bin and a broom and many hangers in the double wide closet. Some people do not like the classic Hawaiian decor as shown on the site, but we enjoy it. Feels like home!

We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your kind words. Aloha!

Glad you enjoyed your stay. It is important to always be careful in the waters off Hawaii. Read the water, don’t go in if conditions are rough. At higher tides, if you are not comfortable in the ocean with its currents, take a plunge in the lava rock encircled keiki pool. If the waters are calm, be careful and enjoy a swim. There is a very large protected ocean swimming area nearby at Lydgate Park with its lawn area, showers, and fun play structure for kids.

Mahalo. Hope you return to Kauai many more times. Future guests will find the WiFi pass code info written on the modem.

You will be welcome! Mahalo.

I am very glad you had such a nice anniversary and mahalo for your kind words. Hope you return many times to wonderful Kauai.

Mahalo, very glad you had a nice stay and hope to have you join our returning guest team who adopt our condo as their island home!

Very happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your kind words. It's all about the "Aloha Spirit" on Kauai!

Mahalo! Glad you enjoyed your stay. Our location is very convenient for walking and driving to the south and north shores for exploration. The new kitchen was not completed in time for me to take new photographs last Sept, and I look forward to showing our new look when I return to my island home. Aloha, Alan Harris

Mahalo! Posted on my birthday! Nice present.

And thus it has been renovated!

I would like to respond to Sue's comments by first pointing out that she gives us 4 out of 5 stars, and not just because I am a nice guy. Our previous guest Carol stayed a few days before Sue and her review is positive and accurate and says more in response than what I can add. That said, I want to point out that saying the refrigerator is rusty is not true. Since it is vinyl covered, it is impossible. But in Hawaii often the metal areas around where the screws attach the handle, for example, may have some rust. It is not a "rusty" appliance. Also it is true the ice maker no longer works because my kid broke of a plastic piece, so it was disconnected. Since I love to make my own maitais over ice, we make sure that the 5 or 6 ice trays are full for every guest upon arrival! We sincerely hope that isn't too "old school" for anyone, but we've never had a complaint about it. We have, as noted in our description, dark wood cabinets and tile counters. We are very open about not having a generic granite and stainless steel appliances- not our look or vibe. There are photos posted which show what our place looks like and they are exactly what it looks like with one exception: we have not posted a new photo of the larger, new king size bed and comforter. Again, please read Carol's comments from a few days before Sue's stay. The carpets are gone and replaced with beautiful wood flooring.The pilling on the newly upholstered (within last 3 years) sofa and chairs? Well, can't say that is a significant critique, but what is there has been cured. The furniture is very expensive and hard to find rattan and there are few if any other units with such a high quality item. We also do not have track lighting, white walls and white floor tile, or granite counters, or anything else generically hotel-ishness. If her review- posted 6 months after her stay!- throws anyone off, please feel free to call and chat about it. I will be able to forward comments from the Outrigger management, etc. They have not had any complaints from their bookings. Aloha, Alan Harris Owner
