Needed a sponge in the kitchen . Beach is not accessible from the property . Overall unit is fine . The workout center ,pool ,restaurant and other facilities is across the street , but it was excellent .
Check in was posted as 3pm. Our room was not ready until almost 4:20pm. So that was a little frustrating. There is a bar across the street that does a live DJ every last Friday of the month. It was very loud and they played until 11:15pm. That would have been nice to know, especially if you have an early morning the next day like we did. Between the bar, construction right outside and the neighbors (which I know they donât have control over) it wasnât what I would say is a quiet location as itâs advertised. Maybe we have a different expectation of what that means. It was a clean area and a good location otherwise. Beach was in walking distance and thereâs a good amount of stuff within walking distance as well and the bar was good
We had a wonderful stay! The location is great, easy to walk to many places. My kids LOVED the pool and waterslide. The grounds are beautiful! The only downside was the noise; lots of leaf blowers, weed eaters, lawn mowers etc. Also noise from the busy-ish road nearby. However that wouldn't sway us from staying again, just something to know when you book. Thank you for your part in our wonderful holiday!
Overall the property is pretty much what it claims to be. Finding the correct beach through the maze of buildings is a little annoying but it was a reasonable walking distance. Biggest complaint is the EXTRA CLEANING FEE that isn't charged by VRBO. It is technically in the fine print of the listing, but in my opinion should be in the up front cost paid online.
This unit is in need of repairs and updating. The toilet did not work properly and all the appliances were old. There was a large cleaning which didn't make sense considering the place wasn't that clean. The unit has screens with shutters that can't be sealed off and the screens are old with lots of holes so it is impossible to keep out insects. You may as well be camping. The only saving grace is the complex and location. The property has beautiful grounds and a basically private beach.
This was our first stay on the south end of Kauai and this property with its location and accessibility to the beach and sites in the area was ideal. Our apartment was very nice, comfortable, welcoming. Appreciate the amenities of the complex, towel service, check in, parking.
The athletic club across the street was great. Close to the beach. No air conditioning. A few critters (cockroaches) to contend with. Not a lot of privacy with the open windows open.
I have to tell the story so that no one else goes through the same thing. I arrived in Kauai and spent 4 wonderful days at a resort in Hanalei (which I highly recommend in the north). But when I arrived at this property in Poipo it was a nightmare! They have a nest of cockroaches throughout the unit. According to the management, they tried to kill them with a spray that didn't work (they only spent 2 minutes and they put two traps). They never offered to change my unit. Only Katie the host wanted to give me back the remaining money because I had already spent one night đ±. Not even the full amount... The entire resort is dirty. Unfortunately I couldn't find another room and I had to stay doing thousands of things to not attract more cockroaches. Every day I covered the pipes, closed all my suitcases, and disinfected everything before using it. Definitely not the kind of vacation we expect. I tried to do everything possible so that my young daughters didn't suffer on their vacation. They couldn't even lie on the floor like any other child because of the negligence of the resort. The receptionist mocked me sacrastically saying "welcome to Hawaii" and justified herself by saying that this type of insects were normal. But IT IS NOT TRUE! I spoke with local people who live there and other property owners and they all agree with the same thing. It is NOT Normal!!! The unit has cockroach problems. I hope you take my recommendation!!
Enjoyed how close to the beach we were and loved having access to the pool and athletic club. No a/c in unit but good cross breeze and fans which kept us comfortable. Paid laundry units within walking distance.
Property was fine. Kitchen lacking in some places. Appliances seemed on the cheaper side, which didn't matter too much as we ate out primarily. One of the beach chairs was broken, so both adults couldn't sit together on the beach. Biggest issue was that the property had us scheduled to depart a day before we were booked through and we ended up locked out of the condo while they contacted the owner. Was a little stressful. Location is great for access to shops and restaurants
We stayed here for a few nights toward the end of our trip so we could explore the South shore. Solid location close to Poipu beach and lots of restaurants and shopping. Bed was big and comfy. Our main issue was the gnat problem in the bathroom. Itâs a beach front property with a pool but the pool is across the street in the fitness center they partner with; we did not ever go to the pool though so this was less of an issue, just something to consider if you plan to use it. The beach is short walk as the property is closer to the street entrance which did lead to some highway noise.
