Overall this was a great location, best of both worlds with the beach a 2 minute walk across the parking lot and the pool right outside the door. Also walking distance to various restaurants and grocery store.
We had 2 adults and 2 kids and while the place is small, still felt like we had enough room. Both beds have extra soft mattresses, may tough for those that need a firm bed.
The kids loved the loads of pool and sand toys that were available. The beach chairs, umbrella, towels were great to have as well. There were a few snorkels and fins as well.
I wish there were hooks or a line to hang towels and swimsuits up outside (there is a not so clean one in the shower). We ended up just using the table, chairs and lanai wall (but came home with one less swimsuit, not sure what happened to it)

Comfortable clean apartment, well equipped kitchen, living room plus lanai made for lots of common spaces, pool is just outside and is rarely used by residents. Good location with shops and restaurants in the area and easy for day trips to north or south.
Only suggestions for missing items: oil and salt would make cooking easier, also conditioner in the shower.
We had a nice stay, thanks!

Aloha , the place is amazing. You go to bed with the sound of the wave's, and wake up to spectacular sunrise, just magical . It has everything you need. We stay out a lot doing water activities and hikes around the island and we realize this place was close to everything. Convenient stores , grocery stores , Starbucks and lots of foods options like restaurant, food trucks and beautiful beaches to visit and enjoy in the area. Its Close to waterfall trails like the “secret falls” and “Makaleha falls”

We loved our stay at the condo! It was clean, quiet, convenient and private. Loved our mornings on the lanai watching the ocean. Such a wonderful location!
The only downside is that the carpets are a bit worn and needed a cleaning.

Kauai Kalani was the best location and stay that I have enjoyed in Kauai, ever. I regularly return to visit my childhood home, and I will always try to book here in the future, now that I know!

The views from the unit were amazing! We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset from the oceanfront patio. The unit was clean and well equipped with anything we needed. It also had a storage closet with lots of items, like cooler, beach chairs etc. The kitchen was well stocked to be able to make meals and use the outdoor grill for some steaks! The complex is right across the street from Safeway and an ABC store to get all the items you need, as well as walking distance to several restaurants as well as Shave Ice. Highly recommend this property!

This property was perfect for out stay. Great location to travel from to see the whole island, right next to the beach, shopping and restaurants located right across the street. Not having AC wasn't a problem, the property had plenty of fans and the breeze coming right off the ocean at night made sleeping extremely pleasant. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a great time on Kauai staying here and we would certainly stay here again. Our only word of advice, and not a knock against the host, is that the bedroom can sometimes get stuffy so if you’re a light sleeper that can’t do warm temperatures, the pull out queen bed they have in the living room would suit you better. The hosts are fantastic and have a lovely place.

We stayed 9 nights at this beautiful condo in Kapa'a - It was perfect! Location is convenient to the entire island. The Condo is just like the pictures, if not better. Plenty of space, kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Beds were comfy, and the Condo was spotless. Listening the waves at night and watching the sun come up each morning was magical. You won't regret staying here and Vikki was a great host.

We loved staying at this condo. It provided everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Great location being on the ground floor, next to the 8 mile multi-use path and right in front of a pretty cool area to wade pool during low tide. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

I didn't see any of the dreaded homeless people mentioned in other reviews; just other well-behaved guests such as myself. Everyone has their own expectations about the property they book, but as for me this was a wonderful stay.

We really enjoyed the property. It is in a great location. Easy access to the entire island. We needed the property manager on one occasion, and he was quick to respond and to rectify the situation. The condo itself was spacious and very comfortable. It was great to listen to the ocean and feel the breeze in evening. The couches in the living room are not the most comfortable to sit on after a day of exploring the island, but after a few hours we were ready for bed. We only used the kitchen for a couple of dinners but it seemed to have everything we needed.

This place is amazing! Centrally located and clean!
Our stay here was most enjoyable. The condo is well thought out with many amenities. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking.
My favorite part of the day is sunrise on the beach with a cup of coffee. The rest of the day we went exploring. Be aware that to access the beaches on the north shore you need a reservation that can be made 30 days in advance and sell out quickly. GoHaena.com you need this for Tunnels beach and Ke`e beach and Blue room cave.
Smith's tropical Paradise has the best luau, IMO. This too sells out quickly so make your reservations in advance.

This was the cleanest rental I’ve ever stayed in. It was nicely decorated and appointed with beach chairs, snorkel gear, beach umbrella, coolers - everything you need for a Kaua’i vacation. It has air conditioning and washer/dryer in the condo unit so you can pack a little lighter and do not have to share which was wonderful. Both were a ‘must have’ for us. Do not underestimate the need for air conditioning. It has a nice small beach to enjoy, but not a swimming beach at least in October because the waves are more intense. We did see a lot of birds, sea life in the tidal area, and one evening there was a Monk seal on the beach. The condominium pool and landscape are cleaned daily.
Kapa’a is a central location for exploring Kaua’i. It is a small town so it is convenient to shops, restaurants, and food trucks. It’s a short drive to Walmart and Costco. It is not a garden location as it is a small town, but the garden spots are short drives as is everything in Kaua’i no matter where you stay. There are palm trees and Hawai’i wildlife around the condominium. This is what we wanted and we were very pleased. I recommend this central location.

Small studio but clean and tidy. Goid complex with small pool and on the beach. Bus stops outside from the airport and also to go up to the north shore, goes to Hanalei. Groceries and places to eat across the road, shops around the area too.

It was overall a fine place. 3 out of the 4 beach chairs were damaged. Each had cracks in the metal. So, we had 1 chair. The rooster’s crowing kept us up the first night so we moved into the 2nd bedroom where the AC condenser made a loud noise every few minutes. The place was damp. We tried to set the humidifier on the A/C remote but everything felt damp including the bed linens. The toilet seat lid was broken. The pool code we were given never opened the gate, so we stuck with swimming at the beaches. I feel like this rental was over rated. The island of Kauai was spectacular and we really only ate, showered and slept at the rental unit. Mahalo

We stayed at the condo for 10 days. The pros were that we were centrally located. The property is small but very nice and has ocean access and beautiful views and sunrises. Pros in the condo: extras provided like laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid and detergent, coffee and cookies were a great touch! Providing beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella and a cooler was wonderful to have. It has a ln air conditioning unit in the back of the condo that provided enough coolness for the condo. The main room got a bit warm but had fans to help. Cons: the place needs updating and a good deep cleaning.

We picked this property because of the recently renovated. Not sure what year it was renovated, but it was not in the past couple of years. The carpets are worn, wouldn't say dirty, but stained and worn. The refrigerator was missing the handles, the stove top only worked on the high setting, the washer did not work and hand to be replaced while we were there. The smoke detector went off the last 2 days we were there. Not fun at 5 am. And then it would automatically shut off. No dishwasher liquid stocked. They did bring some the next day. They did have most items you needed stocked ie: garbage bags, laundry detergent, towels, shampoo and body wash and the usual household items. We could never get the a/c to work properly. It was either freezing cold or it would keep shutting off every 10 minutes. We had to contact the management company 4 times about things that were not working or missing. To me that is unacceptable. They never told us before we got there were to park. What was our assigned place. It was a number that didn't even go with the unit. Very poor. And when we contacted them about the washer not turning on. Oh, it wasn't working properly for the past couple of renters. Really. Then why wasn't it replaced before we got there? You do it after we complain and then decide to paint the bathroom too. How about painting after we left. I have had rentals for many years and this is not something I would do to guests. Would I rent here again. NO.

Stayed here with my sisters for a little get away. The unit it is exactly what the online listing post and has everything you need for a little home away from home. It was clean with plenty of towels, extra blankets and pillows. The location is great as well with a supermarket and other local eats walking distance. What I loved about the location as well is that you’re midpoint from south and north shore, and close to the airport! I would definitely recommend this place to people and would stay here again!
