About this property

Oceanfront, newly renovated. As low as $220/night.

You will find yourself right on the ocean and far from the highway! Sit and relax on your private lanai while watching the waves roll into Wailua beach. The view is truly spectacular. Many guests have shared stories of watching whales breach on the ocean surface for hours at a time right from the lanai.

Wailua Bay View is centrally located near Kapaa by the famous Wailua River and old Coco Palms resort where Elvis filmed 'Blue Hawaii'. It is only 10 minutes from the airport and is a perfect location to base from when sightseeing on the Garden Isle. The condo is situated directly over beautiful Wailua Beach and is only a short walk to Papaloa beach, a protected cove for babies and young children. Lydgate Park is less than a 5 minute drive which boasts the best playground on Kauai. In addition, the County of Kauai just finished a bike path that borders Wailua Bay View and stretches from Kealia Beach to Lydgate park, more than 8 miles in length.
These ground floor units are just steps from the pool and barbeque area. The private lanai is complete with railing for extra security . This makes a perfect set up for families either with or without children, with no stairs to lug up suitcases and groceries. Our condo comes with a fully equipped kitchen and washer and dryer in the unit. We also offer free wireless high speed internet, a huge brand new LCD 50 inch flat screen TV, cable TV, Netflix access, Amazon Prime Video access, unlimited telephone usage throughout the United States and Canada, a king-sized bed, a sofabed, a single futon and even a pack and play/crib for little ones.

Wonderful place to stay in paradise

We enjoyed the views and listening to the waves crash along the beach. The condo is in a great location to see the sites around Kauai and it was a short walk to a number of restaurants and stores. Our granddaughter loved the pool which is kept warm. The condo was comfortable and well equipped for our stay. We really enjoyed ourselves. Our granddaughter wants to come back every year.We opened the windows and let the trade winds keep the place cool, never needed the ac.

5 Stars for an unbeatable sea view!We preferred to make our own meals to stay on budget. It was nice to have a well equiped kitchen with very nice appliances. A Safeway grocery & Longs pharmacy are a quick drive & had what we needed. We appreciated the washer/dryer, too. Especially since we only wanted to pack carry on bags for the 9 day trip. The condo is updated/renovated to a very good standard. The decor' is nicely done. We struggled with heat and humidity. (The heat index was 95/96 when we were there.) The ceiling fans helped some. We were definitely grateful for the air conditioner in the bedroom where we could cool down.The host responded promptly when we had a question. The location is perfectly central on the island for sight seeing and day trip activities, as well as close to the airport. Overall is was a wonderful visit to Kauai!

The apartment was quiet and relaxing. Our morning coffee on the lanai was a great start to the day. We appreciated the use of the beach chairs and towels. The kitchen was large with lots of equipment, I wish there had been a few basic food items to cook with such as cooking spray, condiments… But overall it’s a fantastic place to venture out and explore Kauai. We would definitely come back.

Beautiful place with an ocean view from the lanai

This property is ideally located on the island and convenient to many attractions. It is a beautiful place equipped with everything you need for your vacation. There were beach chairs and a cooler for the beach and the kitchen had everything I needed for cooking meals. The lanai looks directly onto the ocean where you can watch the surfers. Luke is a great host!

GREAT Spot, better for couples

Staying at a condo with the ocean waves crashing right out your backdoor and the breeze blowing through the sliding door was alone worth it. The main bed was comfy, but the sleeper sofa was terribly uncomfortable. That's why I say it's a great fit for a couple who wouldn't need to use the sofa bed. We actually took the sleeper mattress off of the stiff metal frame and set it on the floor, which made it tolerable. Check in was a breeze, and my kids enjoyed having the pool right outside the door whenever they wanted a freshwater dip. The kitchen was well stocked, though the knives and cookware were on their last legs. The coconut marketplace was a short walk up the street, where we caught a Jiu Jitsu class and shave ice. We enjoyed many breakfasts out on the lanai. I'd stay here again, purely for the location.

Beautiful view!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is clean and well maintained. The owner of this condo is extremely responsive. We had an issue with the coffee maker and it was replaced that day. The building manager was present and friendly. The view from the patio is outstanding. We had breakfast there daily and stayed in for dinner on our last night so we could enjoy the view a bit longer. We slept without the air conditioning and the windows open so we could hear the waves at night. The location is perfect. We were able to easily travel to all sides of the island from the condo. There are a number of great places within walking distance (eg Sleeping Giant Grill, Lava Lava Beach club, Coconut Marketplace, etc). The Passion Bakery across the street is a must visit for malasadas. We did not use the beach next to the property due to the wind and weather during our visit. There are a number of beaches nearby for snorkelling. The condo had all of the amenities we needed during our stay (snorkel equipment, beach chairs, cooler, beach towels, communal bbq in the pool area). We would highly recommend this condo and we are hoping to return.

AMAZING trip !!!!

My husband and I just returned from our vacation in Kauai!!! First time to Kauai for both of us! This condo is better then described if that’s possible!!! The first thing you see and hear when walking through the front door is the beautiful ocean and sound of the waves! Spectacular view!!! You will not turn on the TV if staying here! We drank coffee every morning on the lanai, ate several lunches and even dinner the last night enjoying the ocean and beautiful view!! Location was also amazing!!! Less than a half mile walk to the Coconut Marketplace, and so many great restaurants! Loved The Sleeping Giant grill for the best fish tacos! Bobby V’s had a hidden small bar with amazing service and food! The Stella Calzone will not disappoint ! Burgers were great too! Had a fantastic birthday dinner at The Bull Shed, filet and shrimp scampi were delicious!! Window seats are right on the water and what a beautiful full moon week it was! Would definitely recommend !! This condo has everything you could need or want from beach chairs, towels, snorkeling gear, small ice chest! Kitchen was fully stocked ! The bed and pillows were very comfortable and room stayed very cool with A/C. Again the view from the lanai with very comfortable bar stools was incredible! We watched several sunrises from the grass right out front. Luke was great and answered the few questions we had immediately. We can’t wait to go back next year!!! Lovely place 🌺🌸

Comfortable and private oceanfront condo

Our stay at Wailua Bay View was a wonderful one! As others have mentioned, the unit itself is as pictured in the listing — simply decorated and stocked, but extremely easy to recommend for its privacy, location (many great eateries within easy walking distance and condo is centrally situated to all island attractions), closeness to the ocean for watching and listening to the crashing of the waves, and its ease of use (ample parking, keyless entry, eg). The unit and condominium complex are both really just geared toward adults — small, very quiet, minimal grassy area oceanfront, no beach, and strict pool rules. These are all things that we found to be fine, but wouldn’t be what we’d recommend to friends or family members with children. Although we liked the simplicity of the decor, our stay would have been nicer had there been: (1) a newer couch (the current one is covered with a protector which slips around/ is messy), (2) another towel rack & clothes hook, plus new bath mat and shower curtain in bathroom, and (3) a new, complete set of kitchen flatware, and (4) newer/more comfortable lanai furniture. The owners have nicely stocked the unit with a couple rain umbrellas, beach towels and other beach necessities, extra bed pillows, basic kitchen utensils — all appreciated. We felt the newer ceiling fans and free standing fan in living room were perfect for keeping the condo comfortable. The property manager, Mark, was such a great ambassador for Wailua Bay! He greeted us upon our arrival and obviously took pride in keeping the exterior of the complex and grounds in tip-top shape. He was a lovely, welcoming, and friendly resident manager. We never heard from the owners during our stay, but we never had a need to contact them with any problems, either. We can easily recommend this unit and property to any individual or couple looking for a modest, clean, quiet, direct ocean-front Kauai accommodation!

This is our second stay at this amazing condo! We love ground floor location and close proximity to parking lot and very close to the pool! From the moment you walk through the front door your breath is taken away! Beautiful ocean view! We cooked in the condo more this time because you can’t beat the view from the lanai! You can hear the ocean and feel the breeze throughout the entire condo. It’s a short walk to the Coconut Marketplace and several great restaurants. Very highly recommend this gem! We will be back for sure!

The location for the condo was centralized for us to see all of the island. Fantastic view of the ocean. Was not pleased with the fact the condo only had air conditioning in the bedroom. The property listing only said air conditioning. We assumed that meant the entire condo. If we had known that fact, we would have selected a different property. Bathroom was updated but the rest of the unit was not updated. CAble did not work and took us a day to figure out how to operate the Roku. Directions were not accurate.

Very nice apartment in a great location.

Very nice property with great views and location. Check in was pretty easy, battery on the keypad was dead so had to use the back up key, no problem. My only concern was lack of AC, it is only in the bedroom and the ad lists the unit as having AC. Great for the bedroom (was a bit loud) but the rest of the apartment was very warm. Overall nice place with great views and location.

Solid stay on Kauai

Property is as advertised. Host was accommodating. Watched surfers, kite surfers, and saw turtles right from the balcony. Beach chairs and boogie boards were a nice touch. Even though it’s on the first floor, it is completely private and secure. Couldn’t see anyone else on their lanais and no one comes back where the lanai is. Note, there are a few stairs to the unit. Not a problem for us, but could be important for someone else. Been to Kauai before and stayed in Princeville. Too congested and far from many things. In my opinion this condo is the perfect place to stay. Wailua is so quiet, easy access to beaches (which were mostly empty), and very close to shops and restaurants. Super convenient to the airport too.

We decided to go to Kauai, needing rest! This was a great place for us to get it. It was clean, located centrally, and we loved that the ocean was right in view, and so close! We were appreciative to have a stocked kitchen (except for condiments and coffee), and we used it regularly. There are some very good restaurants in the area, and a lovely farmers market a short walk away. We made good use of the pool, which was steps away from our door. The apartment is a bit on the dark side, but it's well-lit with lamps and overhead lights.

Great condo with even better view!

The lanai is were we spent the majority of our time while in the condo. We saw the occasional turtle, surfers, fisherman, and rain showers off in the distance. Grounds are beautiful. Pool was really nice. We grilled there a couple of evenings. Grills seem fairly new and were well maintained. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, and everything worked well. The extras like ice chest, beach chairs, and an umbrella really added to our enjoyment of Lydgate Park. I would love to stay here again someday!

About the host

Hosted by Luke Hofacker

Host profile image
My wife and I love the slower pace of Kauai and opportunity to vacation close to home. We enjoy relaxing at the beach as well as hiking, scube diving, snorkeling, and surfing. No wonder we love Kauai as it is a perfect island for outdoor activities and water sports.

Why they chose this property

The view is absolutely amazing. We love being right on the ocean. Kauai has been our favorite vacation destination for many years.

What makes this property unique

The location is ideal being only 10 minutes from the airport (but far enough away that you never hear an airplane) and central to exploring the island both to the north and south. Wailua Bay View is close to shops and restaurants, yet quiet and peaceful. We really enjoy the walking distance to the protected beach cove for little ones and nearby Lydgate Park.
