Wonderful stay!

This place was a perfect place to stay for our first trip to Kauai! Location was great, being only about a 5 minute walk to Poipu Beach and a good central location to other spots on the island (Waimea Canyon, Hanalei, and airport.) The place was clean and met all of our needs. Would recommend!

We have louvered windows on top of the door. You can open them for ventilation. That should be easy to do. We will change the couch or at least get it deep cleaned. Sorry about this.

Secluded Jungle Hideout

The first thing I figured out, is even with hot days in June, this room stayed cool just by using the screen at night and the blinds as needed, which is not much because a canopy of palm trees cover the entire front and patio. I enjoyed meals on the patio, and found everything I needed in the kitchen (and I grilled also) to prepare some fresh local ingredients. It's a beautiful short walk to the ocean, to multiple beaches, and to a bike rental, and a bar/grill. The property caretaker was very responsive by text as needed.

Great location with A/C

The location is good with Brenneckeā€™s and Poipu Beaches only a 5-10 min walk away. We never had issues with parking at the apartment which is nice and the host provided some complimentary local snacks upon our arrival which was a really thoughtful touch! Also, it really is nice have have a place with A/C since it is not as common as expected at other properties on the island. The only downsides are you can get some noise from the unit above (this unit does have really nice high ceilings though so that could play a role) and the bathroom/shower could use some deep cleaning/updating compared to the rest of the unit. Overall, recommend this unit given the price point and location!

Great Location at a Value

This studio is in a great location in a quiet, nice neighborhood only about an 8 minute stroll from Poipu Beach. Itā€™s small and clean with a comfy bed and well-equipped kitchen. And manager Dan was always helpful with any questions or issues. If youā€™re looking for a luxurious, spacious sunny space where you can linger, entertain, and sip mai tais on a deck, this is not the choice for you. But, if like us, you wanted a good, basic, reliable non-hotel base location from which to do many great Kauai activities, this studio is a great grab. Would do it again. Oh, and donā€™t miss the dusk evening strolls to watch dozens of green turtles come ashore for the evening!

Beachcomber Studio

The Beachcomber is a quiet / comfortable studio condo with a kitchenette, closet, bath/shower, and king size bed. The kitchen is pretty well equipped and the outside grill is just a bonus. We initially thought the refrigerator was not working properly, but we just put too much room temp food in there and it took a while to cool it. It functions fine. The sliding glass door is a bit of a trick to lock, but it works fine as well. The property is close [1 block ] to the beach / sunset views and convenient to the airport, grocery, restaurants, etc. Laundry facilities are excellent and much appreciated. Warning: If you feed the chickens, they will become your best friends.

Not what was expected

Not enough lighting On the path to find the place flying in late at night. Mold in the bathroom, shower and on the shower curtain. Only one kitchen lightbulb worked. The door lock was hard to use chicken and rooster poop. Everywhere on the lanai was very overgrown on the path getting to the condo.

Great location, ok place

The studio is in a great location with an easy stroll to Poipu beach; so if you are going to be out and about all day, this would be a fine, reasonably priced crash pad. But if you are looking for a peaceful respite, I would not recommend. I needed to get some work done during my week stay and almost every day had leaf blowers, lawn mowers, and weed wackers going. For hours (either at this property or neighboring properties). The place is tired and not well kept - light switches fritzed out, coffee maker had mold, pots and pans were stained, bathtub had a hasty paint job to hide the rust. The place is dark and loud. You hear every conversation, shower, and toilet flush from the other vacation units in the building. Access to laundry is a plus and the local treats left in the fridge were a big plus (yum mac nuts!).

Great Week

We enjoyed our time on Kauai so much. We loved the location of this property. We appreciated having beach chairs and a cooler available for our use. Some of the draw backs were the location and accessibility of the pool. We feel like that was not explained well at all. Visitors need to be told up front that itā€™s a 30.00 per day charge and a first come first serve. And it is not conveniently located. Also, It would have been nice to have had more than 2 bath towels, especially since there is no housekeeping service. Finally, we had read in the description before we rented that the bathroom was not clean but, we were surprised at how unclean it really was. Despite these concerns we loved our time on the island and found this location perfect for all that we wanted to do.

Studio near beach

We didn't hate it. It is close to the beach. It is reasonably priced. It is private. Everything you need is here. The laundry is a bonus. The landscaping is lush. Patio is private. The bed was comfortable. The management will return calls very quickly. Parking is a problem, many times at night all the.spaces were taken by other renters. The reason we would not come back is the horrible noise when people took showers in the other units. This unit is tucked under the house. It tends to be dark. There is plenty of lighting to offset the lack of natural light. I do not think the cleaning people are doing a great job. The jacuzzi tub is old but I didn't use it because it didn't appear clean. We wore our flip flops when showering. The unit does seem a bit worn. You will hear lots of noise from the other units, running water and foot steps, slamming doors. Lots of good lots of not so good.
