Disliked: Cleanliness
The first night we got there were issues with the AC in one room and I guess a random termite swarm. The owner sent the cleaners the next morning and the AC guy to fix it. There was mold in the shower and giant layer of dust in the fan. We are glad they were able to address these issues. The rest of the stay went great. The condo is just like it looks in the pictures and the view from the balcony is great. (Side note: there isn't an elevator which I think is pretty common here but we didn't realize this and it was hard to carry our bags up and down but wasn't a issue other than the first and last day)

Kauai vacation at Makahuena

Property met our needs and AC a great amenity! Condo was comfortable but could use an update in decor to make it more pleasant for a vacation stay. Could use a better more thorough cleaning between guests. Location on the island is great.

All our dreams came true

This apartment was fantastic- met all our needs and then some for our Kauai vacation. As soon as you open the door you can hear the ocean crashing and we spent several sunrises and sunsets visiting the waves just a few steps away.The apartment itself had everything we needed. It was comfortable, well appointed, and blissfully air conditioned. We were so pleased with everything about our stay. Just as advertised!

Amazing first stay in a beautiful condo!

The condo was very nice and included all amenities my family needed for our stay. It was centrally located around all our activities, and easy to get to. We especially loved enjoying our coffee on the ocean view balcony, while watching the sunrise! We would happily stay here again! Mahola, for a wonderful visit!

Perfect Location

Our stay was lovely. The location was so close to PoiPu and the point next door offered a stunning area to watch whales and the sunrise/sunsets. The unit was great for our party of four adults and four kids. The AC worked well. The unit was fairly well stocked. The WiFi was good for some work. Could use some TLC for some cosmetic updates, but even then I would highly recommend this location. Communication with the property managers was smooth, prompt and efficient.

Great first time to Kauai

We were two families of 4 and had a great time here! The place comfortably fit all of us, we could cook most of our meals here, and the location was amazing; so close to the beach and great walking. The pool access was great too, and they provided beach/pool towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, and a cooler, which we used nearly every day. The property manager was easy to contact and responsive, and made our trip smooth; they left a great welcome basket with extra keys, instructions, and local guides. We would definitely come back here!

Great stay in Kauai

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We are a family of 5 and stayed 3 nights. The rental was excellent for our visit. There was more than enough room and lots of extras from beach gear to the outdoor grill that we used. Not many rentals have AC on the island so that was a big plus as well!!

Perfect spot for 2 families with 4 little kids!

This was our second "framily" trip to Kauai and staying at this specific unit-- the kitchen and living area allow us to cook our own meals and of course laundry in-unit is a must with kiddos! There are 3 bathrooms- 1 tub, 1 shower. Beautiful grounds, salt water pool and jacuzzi overlooking the ocean, mostly friendly folks who live there, and tons of small lizards to chase. And less than 10 minute walk to Poipu Beach! Note: a wagon is essential for hauling your littles and beach gear. We hope to be back to this unit next time!

As we were told, the property at this time is under light reconstruction and it was not an issue. The condo was super quiet at night. Convenient & nice location in Poipu. All of the beds were quite comfortable. Shower head needs replacing in the 2nd bedroom.

4.5 star! Had everything we needed but could have been more comfortable with small kids.

We (3 adults, 4 kids age 3-8) stayed for 7 daysPros: Really effective AC and fans, kitchen with the basics, comfy beds, a ton of towels, beach toys, etc. Property manager was responsive. The exterior was well maintained had wonderful views for the sunset Check out procedure was so simple that I felt like I was missing something.Without small kids, I wouldn't have had any major issues, but as a parent I would've liked to know the following:The condo was a long way from the parking lot, down a ramp and up two flights of stairs. Getting 4 kids to/from the car with groceries and stuff was a huge hassle. There weren't very many kid friendly (unbreakable) dishes, and not enough bowls in general). Most of the tables seemed to require coasters, and the sinks were too tall for most of the kids to use without help. Pocket doors with slats for bathrooms made privacy difficult. Minor cons: knives were dull, one of the bedroom TVs was missing its cable remote and streaming services didn't seem to work on it, the numbers on the stove were faded beyond legibility, and the range hood buttons seemed barely to work. None of these were particularly inconvenient, but still. No on site recycling besides redeemable cans and bottles and corrugated cardboard. Maybe that's common here? We had to load the rest of the recycling into our car and drive it down the road. Overall a comfortable place!
