Great condo, feel lucky we found it. As advertised it is corner end unit ocean front. Very clean fully stocked unit. We appriciated the extra supplies like dishwasher and laundry tabs as well as cleaning supplies so we could keep the kitchen clean. NO bugs whatsoever, took the rubbish out each day. The comfortable bed. We were happy there was the portable AC in the bedroom and used it at night.

Great little condo in a great location with beautiful sunrises! Halfway between Ha'ena State Park and Waimea Canyon, it was a great spot to see both sides of the island without moving mid trip. Good restaurants in walking distance and a grocery store very close. Note the AC is only on the bedroom and the beach is not for swimming.

First of all, Garden Isle Properties is great to work with! They were friendly, quick to respond to all my questions and I ended up installing their app which made things even better! Mahalo! This unit is great! It’s quiet, clean and very comfortable. The breezes when the windows are open are wonderful! It also had all the necessities we needed for the week. Chose it for the A/C (so it would be quiet at night)(was worried about the roosters…but ended up enjoying them and te nlise wasn't an issue after all...this place is very quiet), the washer and dryer (it was our second week of vacation) and the recliner (because my husband needs one sometimes for his neck and back issues). This place far exceeded our expectations and I sure wish I could book it again now for next year! :) They also keep the grounds impeccably well…including the grills which we used a couple of times. The fact that it was oceanfront was the icing on the cake! We enjoyed the balcony so much…between drinking our coffee, eating meals, playing games and just enjoying the ocean. The miles long walking/bike path actually starts at this location and we took several memorable walks/bike rides on it. First time in Hawaii/Kauai and this is the perfect location to explore the whole island (whether we were heading north, west or south on any particular day) which we did all week and had an absolutely fabulous time…made memories that will last a lifetime! Mahalo!!!

This condo was perfectly located for us. It was easy to get to either the Princeville & Hanalei areas or Poipu & Waimea. There were plenty of restaurants, food trucks & grocery stores located nearby. The local shopping opportunities are great. The bed and living room furniture was comfortable. The entire condo, including the kitchen was well stocked. The condo was clean and well cared for. While there is a rock shelf in front of the grounds making it not swimmable, Lydgate Beach is a short drive and is a wonderful park and great beach with calm waters for little kids or adults who don’t appreciate waves. There is a nice pool and hot tub at the condo. The other two things I would mention are that this unit is on the second floor and there is no elevator. For anyone who has trouble with stairs, that would be an issue. There was a room air conditioner in the bedroom that kept the bedroom very comfortable. There was a big fan in the living room and you can get cross ventilation. We closed the big curtains in the day when we were out exploring and that kept the unit from overheating. A small fan in the bathroom would have been very nice as with the door shut, it gets very warm in the bathroom, even with the exhaust fan on, since there is no window in the bathroom. We would definitely stay in this condo again. Making reservations was easy and any questions we had were answered quickly.

The condo itself had everything we needed- they thought of everything. The condo is not fancy-could use a bit of updating. Location was convenient to restaurants, bike path and centrally located for traveling around island. There is no beach in front of this property but there is a great view of the ocean. Property management provided clear, ongoing information, communication. We enjoyed hiking all around the island. Recommend hiking boots in winter! Expect Mud. If it's raining north could be sunny south. Nice bike ride along the ocean for morning. Rented from Boss Frog's. Great lunch at the Fish Deli and Tiki's tacos in Kapaa. Nice dinner at Duke's.

Our stay in our unit was great. We love the property location and the walk to downtown. This unit is well supplied and overlooks the pool and activity area which makes for good visiting. The grounds are very well kept. Perhaps the owner should consider replacing the carpet with something more practical. Overall, our vacation was wonderful.

Property was nice. Our room was nice and a good size. Appeared clean at first but we did notice as we stayed there that some hard to reach areas had not be cleaned in quite some time. I was looking for an electrical outlet behind our bed and noticed a huge amount of dust built up behind there. Obviously had not been cleaned behind there for years. Similar dust under sofa when we pulled out the sofa bed. Other than that it was nice. It had everything we needed to cook and eat with. A nice balcony with a beautiful view of pool and ocean. It had no AC but a good breeze that helped out.
One other thing to note for the location was it was good and bad. Good in that it was kind of a central location on the island. From there you could head to the north side (about 30 drive) or the south end (about 45 minute drive).
There was shops close by. As far as beaches however, there were not a lot of options unless you went to either the north or southern areas of the island. Most beaches around the property including the one right at the property were rough with rocks only and not suitable for swimming.
All in all a good place.

If you have the opportunity to stay at this corner end unit (one of the closest to the ocean on Island) you will not be disappointed. Beautiful views, warm pool, and spa. And best part you can walk to the grocery store and take advantage of the beach trail to walk or bike into Kapaa town or even farther down for your morning or evening walks. It makes it very convenient being in the center of the island as trips to the north or south shore are quick and easy drives!

We stayed from April 5 to May 10th, 2023. This is our third (and longest) stay in this suite. We love the location near the walking/bicycle trail (15 kilometres round trip from our parking lot to the end of the trail and back) and within walking distance of most amenities such as groceries, a nice local liquor store and restaurants. The ensuite washer and dryer are a real plus making it easy to pack fewer clothes if you prefer to bring just carry on luggage for your trip. You are right next to the ocean in this room which we found to be wonderful for sleeping (if you like being lulled to sleep by ocean waves). You are also right next to the barbecues which is great if you need to run food back and forth when cooking lunch or dinner. The proximity to the hot tub can be a mixed blessing if some of the other guests like to party loudly but management keeps pool/hot tub hours enforced so there are no late night annoyances. The bed and furniture is comfortable and the appliances are in good working condition. The place was clean when we arrived and thoroughly cleaned halfway through our stay. The wi fi range is somewhat limited in the suite - we experienced lag issues when trying to watch TV in the bedroom so we didn't bother with it (we mostly read anyway). We really like this location and room and would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay in our one bedroom condo on the ocean in Kapaa. Clean and neat and well cared for. Nice comfy bed. Updated kitchen and even a washer and dryer. Nice pool and spa and grounds lovely. Plenty of parking. Great location . Negatives would be no coffee, sugar or salt and pepper. Basics. Even shampoo and conditioner would be nice. Still a great stay. Thanks.

This end unit has great views of ocean so the sunrises were spectacular! We could walk to some stores & restaurants or it was a short drive to area towns and beaches. The beach by Condo were not really where you’d want to swim. But the ocean sounds/breezes with windows opened (no a/c) were highlight. The unit could use some TLC: remove carpet, update decor and make sure that the TV in the bedroom actually works...had no issues with tv in the living room. Condo has all the kitchen gadgets we needed for the few meals we made there and having washer/dryer was a plus. Unit was stocked with things you would likely use which was nice.

Our stay was wonderful! This was the first time we had stayed in Kappa and the first time staying with Garden Island Properties and we were not disappointed and hope to return to the same condo we were in.The only problem is the traffic issue and the County has to do something to releive it. It took us 45 minutes to go 6 miles and a couple of occasions and that was before the construction started.Ver concerning if you have an emergency or are trying to reach the airport.

We liked this location because we wanted to be close to the airport and not too far from traveling any direction. We knew we wanted to see as much of the island as possible without having to drive 2 hours in one direction. We spent 3 days and we could go any direction in about 1.5 hours or less.

This was a great, centrally-located place to stay on Kauai! The condo had everything we needed. The beach chairs were a really nice touch and much appreciated. We cooked several meals in the condo and found everything we needed - including basics like salt/pepper and olive oil. There is no a/c as is mentioned in the description but the location gets get cross-breezes with the screen doors and windows open. The pool and hot tub were nice, lounge chairs on the lawn are even nicer than those in the picture, and there were grills available to everyone. The condo is in a busy part of Kapa'a - easy walking to various stores and restaurants and easy access to the walking/bike path. Once you are in the condo and on the backside facing the ocean you don't hear all the business of the town on the other side. It was like getting the best of both worlds - central location but lulling ocean wave souns. We'd definitely stay here again!

Such an amazing stay! The room was clean and had all the amenities. Very clean, amazing view. The grounds are kept beautiful. There are ice chests, beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels in the room. Washer and dryer in the room. The pool and hot tub stay open until 10 pm. It is walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The location is perfect. The beach out front is not swimmable but it’s just a quick drive in either direction to find the best beaches.

After an unusual 3 year pause from our favorite island paradise it was so nice to return. The same wasrm, peaceful, beautiful island greeted us with 10 days of 80 degree weather. Kapaa Shore property in Kapaa was wonderful. Our unit overlooked all the amenities and serves up daily morning glorious sunrises. The well appointed unit has all we could ever need in a home away from home. We can walk a 25 minute walk downtown to many shops and restaurants along a paved pathway or quickly to groceries. Thank you to the owners and Garden Island Properties for a great, long awaited visit.
