Such a nice spot to explore Kaui from. Communication with host was easy and supportive. The space was clean, comfortable and Private. It was lovely being right in the water and getting up with the birds! After long days exploring it was nice to have some food options nearby.

Great Central Location

This was a nice place with a good view! It was also a good location for us as we went out West to Waimea Canyon & were able to visit some beaches out West & up North as well. It's worth knowing that there isn't a stovetop in the room, but there are some grills down by the pool & a microwave in the room for cooking. Overall, this was a good place to stay for exploring Kauai!

Ocean View & Sound of the Waves Against the Shoreline are Spectacular!

The view of the ocean from the veranda and the sound of the waves against the shoreline were one of many magnificent highlights of our stay in Kauai at the Islander on the Beach. The east shore locale, was a perfect midway point to visiting both the north and south shore. Also, just steps to the Coconut Marketplace, it was convenient for shopping and food. Island Market was our favorite for food, drinks and gifts. We celebrated our 25th Anniversary, Aloha Style.

Good and clean. Ocean views are impressive. Hot tub is enjoyable. Nice pool area. Good equipment: wifi, coffee maker, phone chargers, A/C. The bed is cozy.Some minor downsides:Construction workers and roosters are a bit noisy.The cooler bag on the balcony was rusted and the zippers did not work so not exactly usable.WiFi credentials in the reservation email were different to the actual WiFi network in the apartment. However the correct credentials could be found on the table.All in all a very nice place, we would totally recommend!

Beautiful view

We love the convenient location of Islander on the Beach, and the view from 252 was exquisite. We looked straight out at the ocean from the comfy chairs on the lanai, and fell asleep to the sound of the waves. The room was well equipped with beach chairs and appliances, and the property manager was very helpful. It was a perfect getaway.

Awesome property!

I had an amazing vacation staying here with my daughter. The unit looked exactly like the pictures on the listing, and the building is right on the beach. It was amazing to sleep with the sounds of the waves and we loved having our morning coffee looking at the ocean. The property is the best of both worlds…you get the perks of a resort (tiki bar, pool, hot tub, nice lobby) while getting the freedom and convenience of a condo. The chairs, sand mats, cooler and umbrella were very nice additions too. Great central location that allowed us to easily explore both the North and South shores of the island. I would definitely stay here again!

Very clean room, excellent location, all as expected. My only disappointment was that the kitchen was not well suited for in room meal prep. No stove or oven, just a small microwave and toaster oven. Also no dishwasher--minor inconveniences. Otherwise this is the perfect getaway spot right on the beach with a full view of the ocean!

Great place to start our trip!

This location was perfect for a late flight arrival, only about 15 min from the airport. The unit itself was cozy but just what we needed to relax for a few days and just chill. The sound of the ocean at night was sooo nice and in the morning, just grab your coffee (bring extra Keurig cups if you need them or buy at Coconut Marketplace next door. Tons of places to eat and drink within a few steps. Until was a bit hard to find in the dark but just park to the right of the office somewhere and take the path past the coffee place straight back to the ocean and you’ll find it. Great place, would definitely stay here again!Mahalo

A good place to stay in Kauai

Overall we were really happy with everything. The unit was clean, king size bed was comfy, a/c worked well and was quiet. Kitchen had what we needed and appreciated a water filter jug. Found the management company quickly responsive and the microwave and safe needed attention / replacing and they were on it quickly, new microwave installed the next day. There were sufficient clean towels for both the bathroom and beach. A larger fridge was welcome as we loved getting ready made foods or take outs so could enjoy the balcony with a great view overlooking the ocean for a number of breakfasts and dinners. It was easy to get good food from the ABC store and the BBQ chicken place at the Coconut Market Place and the Sleeping Giant grill on the property was excellent. The location was perfect for us, close enough but also far away enough to the airport and all day trips. I am very pleased we chose this place for our 7 day stay. One of us found the tub slippery (did slip twice but manage to avert any bad injury) and suggest using bath mats which the management indicated would provide for future guests.

Nice location

Great location, beautiful view. We weren’t aware that VRBO guests are not allowed to use the laundry room which made things a little complicated. The floors were not cleaned or were not vacuumed before mopping as it had long hair strands all over. It definitely could use a better housekeeper or more time for cleaning. The room itself was great, bed was comfortable and you can’t beat it’s location. Overall had a good time and would probably return.
