About this property
*NEW* Top-Floor Kapaa Studio with Partial Ocean and Garden Views
Summary:
From the top-floor lanai in the Maui Building, this Islander on the Beach studio gives you a partial ocean view, garden below, and the sound of waves carrying through the day. Two beds sleep up to four, with air conditioning and a kitchenette in the 372-square-foot space for a small family or friends. The beach is a few paces away, and the beachside pool and hot tub make an easy alternate plan when everyone needs a break from the sand. Coconut Marketplace is close enough for coffee or a casual meal, while Wailua's waterfall scenery and Kapaa's coastal path invite a little exploring. Tropical landscaping softens the walk between pool and shore. It is a comfortable East Side landing spot for guests who want the beach close and the days uncomplicated.
The Space:
On the top floor of the Maui Building, this 372-square-foot studio opens to a private lanai with partial ocean and garden views. Two beds sleep up to four, and the kitchenette has a sink, microwave, mini fridge, and coffee maker for simple meals. Air conditioning and a full bath add welcome comfort after time in the sand, pool, or hot tub.
Guest Access:
Guests at Islander on the Beach have access to the shared outdoor pool, hot tub, BBQ grill area, and beach access. The resort grounds provide easy outdoor space to relax between beach outings.
The Neighborhood:
The Maui Building puts the resort's tropical grounds between your lanai and the beach, with Coconut Marketplace close by for breakfast, groceries, and casual dinner. When you want to move a little, the Ke Ala Hele Makalae path is nearby for an oceanfront walk or bike ride. Wailua River and the road toward Opaekaa Falls offer an easy change of scenery, and Kapaa town has more local dining by car. It is a useful East Side home base for a small family or friends who want short, satisfying outings rather than a far-flung drive every day.
Getting Around:
Kapaa sits along Kauai's Royal Coconut Coast, about 15 to 20 minutes from Lihue Airport. A rental car is recommended for exploring the island, though the main strip along Kuhio Highway is walkable, with beaches, shops, restaurants, and the popular coastal path all within easy reach on foot. Grocery stores and casual dining are close by. Parking is generally available at condos and along the street, making this an easy, low stress base.

We had a great time at this spot! It was very clean, quick and easy access to the beach, and the bed was very comfortable. Definitely would stay here again!
Property was as expected with room to stretch out a bit. Very convenient as it was within walking distance of the beach, pool, shops and restaurants.

This property had everything we needed for a perfect week. The beach is steps out the patio door, we were close to restaurants and shops and the pool and unit were clean and comfortable. Simply beautiful and we will definitely rebook. We love this place!

Clean room and great location
We stayed a week in this room. It was very clean and had a view of the beach. The property was gorgeous, and the location was steps away from great coffee and restaurants. We had a little trouble with the WiFi, but the vacasa team was super responsible to help us figure it out. Would definitely stay again.

Nice clean room for a quick weekend trip. Property was nice from what we saw but didn't really use much of it. The view of water is between 2 other buildings but the patio was nice to have coffee on in the morning. The only thing that was frustrating was we arrived later at night and had a hard time finding somewhere to park.

Beautiful
The location of the property was just great, exactly what We had wished for. It was well prepared for our arrival. Property owner had answered all the questions promptly before our arrival. Overall, it was a great experience. Mahalo for making our visit pleasant.
We nicknamed this small studio condo our “Beach Shack”. Nothing fancy but the oceanfront location is amazing, especially falling asleep at night with the sound of crashing waves. There’s a nice patio for reading or internet (which worked fine). The small complex was much more quiet than a hotel. Great beach swimming in the area.
Entry instructions were not provided before arrival, so I had to contact Vacasa for the passcode. The delay caused us to miss a reservation. The beds were uncomfortable, and the body wash was nearly empty. I always stay on this property when visiting Kauai, but will likely seek a different host in the future.
