Fantastic pad! Some minor notes + considerations!

This spot suited us well! We really enjoyed our time on the island. We do have some hopefully helpful details to share for future visitors. Location is great– lots of walkable spots, good food (and variety), and great coffee (Java Kai). Diamonds pizza, surprisingly tasty food trucks, lots of restaurants, etc. Safeway is short drive. Big save is totally walkable. It had a nice beach for wave-watching, but not really for swimming/snorkeling that butts up against the property. The backdoor of this unit looks out to the pool. Close for a quick dip and ground floor was a bonus. I appreciated not having stairs after a long day of adventuring on the island. It lacks a certain homey charm. It is clearly a time-share type property. Feels more like a hotel room and not someone's cherished property. It is comfortable though. The portable air-conditioning unit brought into the bedroom is very LOUD... Being the ground floor unit the upstairs movements are very audible. In our particular stay this meant hearing the toilet flush or shower run as early as 4:30 am– it was loud– also chairs moving, doors closing, etc. You will also hear roosters crowing around 5 am– however if you're familiar with the islands, you'll know this is an unavoidable fact. We like to cook! The kitchen was fairly barebones. It would have been really nice to have some zip lock bags or containers for toting our day snacks and lunches. This unit did not offer anything like that.

Nice location

Pros: unit was very clean, the location was excellent, the kitchen worked well Cons: very minimal comfort items like toilet paper, hand towels, kitchen towels, soap. The sofa bed is not suitable for sleeping in comfortably - the mattress is very thin and part of the bed sinks down lower than the rest.

Pleasant Kapa’a Stay!

We have been coming to the islands over the holidays for the last 11 years. We change up lodging each visit to try something new. This property was really lovely and located right on the ocean and Kapaa path with a pluthera of games to play on site. Also Kapaa has a ton of restaurants and some shopping nearby so that’s convenient too. You get towels at the pool and can exchange wet ones for new ones. We like that they allow floaties and fun in the pool. (Some other properties like the WR up the road can be strict with this.) There are no chairs or boogie boards in the unit but you can rent them on site for like $12 per day. The unit was exactly as advertised. Absolutely loved that it was on the ground floor and very close to the pool. There is also a property grill right outside this unit (as well as more by the pool area.) My kids slept on the pull-out and my recommendation would be to upgrade that soon as it is on its last leg (hard to pull out and doesn’t lay flat so my daughter had to turn her body the other direction). The bed in our room was super comfortable and we slept great. Although I personally would prefer another blanket as the one provided was a thin fleece type one. All in all, we had a very pleasant stay and would recommend this property for your stay in Kapaa!
