Pono Kai

We spent 3 nights at Pono Kai resort during our recent visit to Kauai. We enjoyed the ocean front location, exploring to local beachfront and proximity to Princeville for a day trip. The unit was exactly as advertised, well equipped and even included beach items (beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear and ice chest) for our use. We recommend this place!

Having the ocean sunrise at our backdoor every morning made this place so beautiful and relaxing. Just what we needed! Wonderful kitchen allowed us to cook meals as a family. We also enjoyed the outdoor barbecue and pool and jacuzzi. I would return in a heartbeat— didn’t want to leave!

Fantastic Oceanview Room

This unit is clean and well maintained. Kitchen is well stocked with all the necessities. Beach chairs, snorkels, boogie boards, umbrella, and coolers are always available in the unit. Walkout patio to ocean and nearby beach access is great for those challenged by stairs. Dawn is super friendly and always available to help and share her vast knowledge of the island.

First time in Kauai

We absolutely loved the Pono Kai Resort and the condo unit we stayed in. The location was excellent, the view was stunning, the condo was very clean & uncluttered, the promenade along the beach was perfect and Kapa'a Old Town was a great place to shop, eat, browse or just plain stroll. The accessibility to the other shores made the location ideal. Staying at Pono Kai is definitely a "do-over".

GREAT LOCATION AND VALUE

We enjoyed our time in Kauai. What a beautiful place, We drove all the way from Poipu to the edge of the North Shore. Thís room is centrally located and perfect for that. The weather wasn't great but we made the most we could of it. The bed is small (full size) and the mattress and pillows are the pits. Needs a good upgrade there! Thanks
