This was our first time to Kauai as a family and were so relieved to find our condo was so centrally located, peaceful, well maintained and comfortable. We felt at home right when we walked in the door and loved all the amenities that the complex offered. To wake up to beautiful sunrises pretty much every morning was so special! Got an amazing view of the full moon as well! Great space for our family of four!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property at Pono Kai. The location of this property is why we continue to stay here. The condo was located right on the beach and close to the everything. The condo was furnished with everything we needed, including Morey Boogie Board and fins to use while visiting the beach. This was my first rental experience from a private owner and everything went pretty smoothly during check in. The only thing to keep in mind is that because the unit is privately owned, Pono Kai will not let you check out beach towels to use. However, the unit does have beach towels for the renters to use. The AC in the unit was fantastic and gave us wonderful relief from the heat during the warm days. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great time at the Pono Kai Resort

Just imagine walking into your condo, pulling back the curtains from wall to wall and all you see beautiful palm trees and the ocean surf, this view will take your breath away. You could not ask for a better location. This condo is just steps from the beach and located 30 min from Poipu and Hanalei, what more can you ask for. We had a great time and would give it 10 stars. All the pictures are accurate in the listing.

Great property and location

Our family stayed here on our visit. The location is perfect. You can walk to town if needed, close to restaurants, bakery, etc. The little beach in front of the property is often empty. It feels like you have your own private piece of paradise. The bike/walking path is fabulous! There’s a bike rental place nearby and my teens loved riding along this pathway. The condo is clean and well stocked with dishes and pans. There’s also pool towels and other beach items there to borrow. We had a hiccup at check-in and the owner called me back right away and fixed it promptly. We had a great time here and would highly recommend.

Just Right

This was our third stay at Pono Kai and our favorite condo so far. We like to be oceanfront on the ground floor and this unit is just steps from the walking path and the ocean. We spent many hours enjoying the lanai and went for long walks on the path every day. Perfectly situated for watching the sunrise. The unit was clean and nicely furnished. We had everything we needed. The owner is friendly and easy to communicate with. We already booked our return trip next year.

Everything needed for a great stay.

This 2 bedroom/2 bath unit had everything we needed for our perfect stay. The kitchen is outfitted almost perfectly with even a hot pot to make tea water, crock pot. Our only suggestion would be for a pizza pan and cutter. (No big deal.). What really set this place apart from the rest is the full compliment of masks, fins, snorkel, 3 boogie boards, beach towels, beach mats, beach umbrella and even a beach chair. The location was excellent for a family with Mexican, Thai, Greek, Shave Ice, Smoothies, Cafes. All at reasonable prices. Best of all, this is a ground floor unit that opens to the lawn, bicycle path then beach. Sunrises were great! We hope to return next year.

Rare ground floor unit with beachfront

This unit is located in a lovely, well maintained resort in Kapa'a. We had no issues with the unit, although we felt some of the furnishings could be a little more comfortable. Lovely view from lanai, nice to have the walking trail as well. Overall would definitely recommend!

Great location to explore the whole island.

This location is perfect for exploring both ends of the island. Easy drive to the north and while a little farther south it is still not a bad drive. The complex we stayed in was quiet and is located right next to a great walking biking path. While on our walks every morning we would see monk seals, and occasionally dolphins and many whales. Sunrises were amazing. There are many amenities such as: pool, exercise room, and two pickleball courts that were hardly used. You are within walking distance to many restaurants and shops. Although the laundry is not in the unit it is located just a few steps away. The host was easy to work with and very responsive. I would stay here again.

Perfect!

We sincerely loved our stay at Pono Kai. It was the perfect location and accommodation for our family. We loved being steps from the beach and enjoyed the spectacular sunrises most mornings. We loved the central location of Kapa’a, which made it easy to get to either side of the island without too much travel time. The condo was clean and comfortable, had AC and many fans to keep us cool, and had spectacular views of the ocean. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone!

Awesome place

We rented the place for a week. When we walked in, the place was absolutely gorgeous. The view was stunning. Extremely easy to check in. Two good size bedroom. Alice was always available to answer any questions that we might had. The place was as described on the website. The only down fall had nothing to do with the condo. The place is located on a resort and we tried to get some help from the concierge a few time however he was not really pleased or even friendly to us since it is a private own place on the resort. We did have access to the pool, hot tub, gym and activities on the resort. I would recommend the place to anyone who would like to have a beautiful view. Walking distance to downtown. For our group of people, the place was a 5 stars for sure.Thank you for the memories

Fantastic!

We loved our stay here. Located right in front of the beach and right next to some shops, restaurants, and food trucks. Bike/walk path steps from the patio door which lines Kapa’a. The beach in front of the condo is absolutely a fine beach. You’ll read some criticism about questionable characters, trash/debris, or rougher waves…but especially our last day the kids swam there, made sand castles, and I did collect a bag of debris (plastic parts from ocean debris) because we are visitors on this island! However, the beach is not “gross” or anything like that. Beautiful blue water. Host was very communicative. Pono Kai has a small pool and other activities…but it’s not a bustling resort feel which we preferred. Quiet and easy going. Great location too to explore the island. Closet had snorkel gear, beach towels, sand toys, umbrella and more. Great stay!!

Perfect location - couldn't ask for better

We just returned from our trip to Kauai and staying at this property and had a great time. The condo was clean, the rooms were large, and the location was great. Not only is the condo centrally located on the island AND so close to the beach, but there are plenty of food and shopping options nearby. If I was returning to the island my first choice would be to book this condo again.
