Our family of four spent six nights at Olivine Surf Lodge. Our biggest regret was that we did not stay longer. This was our first time in Kauai and six nights was not long enough. It was also our first stay in a vacation rental home. I spent lots of time researching and reviewing places to rent. Cleanliness and location were two of the main factors that were important to me. To be honest, I did question staying here because of the carpet upstairs (I manage long term rentals and know how gross and grimy carpets in rental units can get.) But, the carpet was fine and everything else was clean and up to my picky standards. The beds were very comfortable - so comfortable that I regret not checking to see what brand the mattresses were. We cooked four dinners and ate all our breakfasts at the condo. All of the cooking equipment we needed to do that was there - including a grill. The condo it self was well decorated, bright and welcoming. The location was within walking distance to Anini beach, a large and well stocked grocery store, restaurants and the Princeville farmers market on Saturday mornings.
