This was our sixth visit to Kauai but first time staying at Sea Lodge. I have to say the views were magnificent. I especially loved sitting on the daybed and even sleeping on it at night. The beds were very comfortable. It’s a plus having a washer and dryer. We visited a different beach each day.

Great place and the north shore is by far the most beautiful. Accommodation was perfect but would benefit from an update and refresh. Certainly nothing that affected our holiday.

Pros: the views are amazing and the location is awesome. The grounds are well kept and the pool is a nice and refreshing. Access to the private beach can be slippery and muddy but worth it for those who are a bit adventurous. The beach gear was great (chairs, small cooler, umbrella) and we found enough in the kitchen to cook our own meals. There is a BBQ area but it is charcoal only, just fyi.
Cons: the unit desperately needs some updates. The dishwasher racks come off the tracks, the mattresses are old and the pillows were pretty flat. The blinds need to be replaced and some of the furniture has seen better days. Also the TV in the living room didn’t work for us. The WIFI was spotty and many of the outlets don’t work. We reported the broken TV but didn’t hear back from the property manager. Not a huge deal (not hear for TV), but I would have expected a follow up. They did however, provide a backup microwave to replace the one above the oven that is broken. For how much you end up paying, I’d choose a different unit next time.

Beautiful view from room. Hear the ocean 24/7. Surprisingly good weather. But patio screen door very difficult to open and clothes dryer doesn’t work (doesn’t dry clothes).

I was looking for a trip for my girlfriend’s birthday and after a few hours of looking, this place popped out to me. I went with it and it was a really good find. The pictures don’t do the views justice, the place was clean and had everything we needed.
Really enjoyed our stay, highly recommend this place.

This little condo was totally as advertised and the view was spectacular! The complex is quiet and relaxing and just what we needed. Loved sitting on the patio and watching the ocean! That being said, it needs some updating. All the appliances are old, dingy, and rusty in places. There could be more attention paid to the cleaning as well.

We've been staying at Sealodge for many years. This unit has beautiful views of the coastline all the way to the lighthouse. Cool breezes and listening to the waves is an awesome way to sleep at night. Hoping we have the pleasure of staying here again on our next trip to Kauai.

We were very happy with our stay at Sealodge. The unit was very clean and comfortable. It had everything you could need for your vacation including beach chairs and towels, boogie boards, and snorkeling sets. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you might need in order to make meals in. The location was great and centrally located for anything you might want to do on the North Shore. We particularly enjoyed Hanalei which was only a short drive away. The view of the ocean was phenomenal and the breeze at night along with the sound of ocean waves was relaxing and peaceful. The place was also very quiet and we didn't ever hear anyone else during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

This little space was perfect for just me. Private & cozy. Do wish the spider webs had been swept off the lanai and from the window screens. It would have made it nicer in general to sit on lanai & on inside window seat.

We spent two weeks in this lovely 1-bedroom condo and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The views from the living room and bedroom are stunning. The kitchen is well-stocked with all the kitchenware we needed, and the complex has quiet hours starting at 10:00 PM (that were observed) so we slept really well. There are wild roosters in Kauai so download a white noise app on your phone. The path to the nearby beach can be quite muddy and slippery after the occasional rainstorms so you might want to bring some trekking poles in your luggage. Leila is a very hospitable and responsive host, and we definitely hope to return in the future.

The rental unit has outstanding views from multiple locations in the condo, has newer kitchen appliances and is relatively well-equipped. However, the unit itself is old and has not been maintained as well as expected. Damage to both bathtubs (stain and rust), poor grouting around the tub, chipped paint around window frames and front door, spongy planks near edge of balcony, etc. No shampoo/conditioner in first floor, tiny soap supplied, etc. The front door keypad malfunctioned, so we had to use the lockbox key. When we tried to contact the rental agent, including use of the emergency number, we did not receive an answer for as long as 1/2 hour. That's unsatisfactory.

The views from this property were amazing and communication with the owner was great. We very much enjoyed having coffee on the little patio in the morning. The location was excellent for exploring the north side of the island.
The unit itself felt a little worn and lacked many amenities we found at other places around the island - decent pots and pans, mixing bowls, tupperware, tinfoil, etc., which made it difficult to cook.
It is relatively small space - there is a folding room divider separating the kitchen table from the bed and no door on the outer part of the bathroom where the sink is. The washer and dryer are in the kitchen. It felt kind of jumbled, like there wasn't enough space for everything. Overall, we had a nice time here but it wasn't one of my favorites.

I had booked another Hestera property but didn't receive the code to get into the property, and didn't realize it until I got there. I tried multiple methods/times/days to get a hold of the property manager, to no avail. I contacted VRBO, and they told me that the owner hadn't logged into VRBO since 2023. VRBO told me they couldn't help me and told me to book a hotel for a couple nights and I'd get reimbursed, which didn't happen and they won't write me back now. I don't know if the owner of the property is no longer able to access phone/email, but VRBO should also be vetting their properties on a more regular basis, or at all. We were able to get into this property, and we got an automatic email with the code for this place (unknown why the original place we booked didn't do that). This place was okay, but be wary of booking with these people.

Couldn’t have not asked for a better place to stay! Right beside the pool but nothing beats the views!!! The chickens were such a morning welcome and the baby chicks!!! All the basic, plus more gear you need for your stay! We left so men’s size 12 and women’s size 8 water shoes to add to the gear!!! The trek to the beach was a little more intense than expected due to the rain but so worth it!!! Even found a waterfall to the far right, if you venture off the beaten path! Cannot wait to visit again!!!

We always enjoy our time at sealodge. There were some hangups this time but we still enjoyed the stay overall. Hangups were the internet didn’t work in the beginning and took a few back and forth communications to get it going. Biggest disappointment was the dryer had been ruined by a previous guest but housekeeping didn’t notice so we didn’t have a dryer for our 8 day stay.

We really enjoyed the place and with that view how could you not? The place was quiet and private and tidy. We love the area and had been to the Sealodge Property before so we were familiar with the area. I would definitely go back in a heartbeat but have one suggestion...time for some new mattresses.

This property was great value for the price- ground floor - direct could not be closer stunning ocean views. There were two of us- it is a one bedroom unit with a sleeper sofa in the living room, and the sleeper sofa was very comfortable.The unit was clean and when we had an issue with screen door- came off track/ fixed very quicklyLaundry in unitBeach chairs et For the price it was very goodWhat I did not love- no shampoo or body wash of any kind-most places there is some kind of basic shampoo. This is more for potential renters information than a criticism.-kitchen-not that well equipped. Simply not enough dishes and silverware in my opinion.. dishwasher is not full size- although it appears that there was clearly room for a full size dishwasher as the extra space is boarded up. You will be doing dishes a lot. But given the lack of dishes cutlery mugs!-No plastic dishes or tumblers which if you’re taking stuff outside most people I think would prefer some plastic-I have found in most other rentals on Hawaii of which I have probably been in over 25 that there is usually a better provision of basics like foil, plastic wrap, although they did have lots of plastic baggies, which was great, basic condiments, including maybe ketchup and or mustard etc - screen door- the sliding door to the ground level patio seemed old- what I really didn’t like about it was that you could not lock the screen door so sometimes you might be in the unit and want to leave that door open but with the screen door shut. People walk by feet from the door- it needs to be able to lock.Finally pool-the view of the ocean if you’re in the pool is unnecessary, Lee blocked somewhat, which is unfortunate. However, the pool temperature is great not too hot not too cold, but there is literally zero shade of any kind at the pool. It would be helpful if the complex provided, one or two tables with an umbrella or otherwise, th

SeaLodge is in a beautiful location with great views of the ocean and the mountains. The hike to SeaLodge beach allows you to enjoy so much of what Kauai has to offer. The condo itself is well equipped with everything that you need. However, the lack of air conditioning is a big negative, especially when the weather is bad. A Kauai vacation relies heavily on outdoor activities. When we were there, it rained most of the day, every day, requiring us to spend much time in the condo. The lack of air conditioning, uncomfortable furniture, and no smart TV, made the stay uncomfortable. If you plan a stay at SeaLodge, keep this in mind.

It was a great stay and location was EXCELLENT. The ocean front view was a highlight as we could even enjoy star gazing. Nothing against the property but we didn't know about the non-AC situation and during the day, could get a little warm inside.The ocean breeze definitely makes is nice at night with all the windows open.
We appreciated all the beach amenities at our disposal as it made it convenient when we hit the beach and didn't have to rent chairs or umbrellas.

Our stay was delightful. We enjoyed the proximity to many points on the north side of Kauai. We could see the ocean and the view of the nice homes on the mountain side as this was also scenic. The condo did not have AC and we had to get a little use to it. When we arrived at 3 pm, the temperature was quite high in the unit as we needed to open windows and activate some fans that were available to cool the unit. We found that temperatures cooled at night often with light rains and a breeze which allowed for comfortable sleeping. The bed was also comfortable. The place was very clean and decorated nicely, and there was the opportunity to relax in the living room area. Our host was very responsive and very easy to work with. If visiting the area, we would certainly be glad to stay at this condo again!
