Condo was very clean. Everything needed except spoons, as soon as I noticed managing they brought a whole new set of silverware. Check-in and communication with management was great. Three floors was a bit of a climb, though the view was wonderful.

Wonderfully peaceful. Amazing views of ocean and mountains. Appreciated all the amenities, including beach chairs, snorkels, towels and in-unit washer and dryer. The bathroom and kitchen are dated, but fully functional. We are an adventurous couple and need a comfortable and functional place to stay. Not looking for 5-star resort, but got 5-star resort views. Sunrises were amazing.

Great ocean view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The views are incredible from this property. The interior is dated and run down. The kitchen, bathroom, and mattress are in bad shape. We have stayed in other Sealodge properties that were dated as well, but they were not this run down. If not for the view, I would give this property a very poor rating.

Great views. We ate breakfast every morning on the deck as well as sat there every evening. Bright and spacious with two places to sleep in such a way that two people can each be in their own space. The building is next to the pool & near everything we wanted to do on the north shore. I loved that all the windows were open when we arrived so it was cool and not stuffy. The kitchen and bathroom windows have views of the mountains, while the others have views of the sea. There was a fresh wrapped sponge and a full paper towel roll by the kitchen sink & plenty of TP in the bathroom. It was also great to have a washing machine, especially the rinse and spin cycle. We didn't use the dryer; on plastic hangers everything dried overnight with the good ventilation. I liked being on the top floor too as no one could walk by it felt very private. Beautiful grounds too.

Amazing Condo

Located in a great area. We enjoyed listening to the waves every night while we slept. The lanai has an amazing view. We sat out there every morning to watch the sunrise and every night to star gaze. We watched whales and surfers from the balcony. We were worried about no AC but it ended up being just fine with the windows open and ocean breeze. Although it’s an older unit, the property is well maintained and provided all of the amenities we were looking for. We had a great time!

Calm & relaxing

We enjoyed every morning out on the balcony watching the sunrise & then sunset every night. A couple times we saw dolphins You can see a huge waterfall on the mountain out the kitchen window Yes it is warm without AC but all the windows open & fans going it was fine. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was perfect!

Love Sealodge

Sorry, the burners on the stove are funky. One doesn’t work. The kitchen and pantry area could use a deep clean. FYI, the kitchen floor is spongy and the linoleum is coming up in a few spots. Hard to maintain in a damp environment. Still loved our stay.

Wonderful place

Great location. Enjoyed the ocean views and sounds. Great spot for two. Beach chairs and umbrella were a great touch. Only issue we had was with a fan in the freezer making noise. The management was very responsive in getting it fixed the next day. When we come back, we’ll definitely consider coming here again.

Disliked: Communication
We loved the view and the location, about 10 mins from Hanalei Bay. Things to note: there’s no beach walking distance of the unit. The condo is perched high on bluffs, and while there’s supposedly a trail leading from the property down to the beach, we found it slippery and dangerous. Also, I found the communication with the property management, Kauai Kahuna, to be frustrating. We were asked if we needed anything, but almost everything was met with a version of “No, buy it yourself.” For example, shampoo, conditioner and sugar were not provided. The snorkeling gear provided was faulty, and while we were provided with replacements, it was nearly a 2 business day wait with no specific arrival time to plan our snorkeling around, so we spent 25 to rent snorkels. The VRBO's Cleaning rules upon checkout were quite strict, i.e. "Your 30 cleaning fee includes the laundering of 2 sets of towels, for anything other than that, launder yourself or be charged a cleaning fee." So the last night of our stay, I had to stay up while the washer and dryer ran our beach towels, since that fell outside of the "covered" 2 sets of bath towels. We also had to take out the trash ourselves. Not sure what the cleaning fee really covers at that point. While we liked this unit, we'll likely try another management company next time.
