Blue Kauai at Islander on the Beach!

Aloha and Welcome to Blue Kauai at Islander on the Beach!

Beautifully Renovated Ocean & Pool View Studio Condo - Air Conditioned! No Resort Fees!

Blue Kauai - Ocean/Pool View & Prime Location! This Beautiful Ocean & Pool View Studio Condo is located on the second floor, directly over the main lobby, at the Islander. Take full advantage of the private lanai with a warm cup of coffee and picture perfect sunrise. Use the lanai to watch the whales as they frolic just off shore November through April. Or in the evening, savor a romantic meal with your love while taking in the soft light of the pool and tiki torches and listening to sounds of island music drifting up from the pool-side bar.

Islander On The Beach 205 is beautifully renovated with quality, comfortable island-style furnishings - a cozy place for two - including a California King bed, flat panel TV, comfy love seat, cute dining area, well stocked kitchenette, and Air Conditioning! Blue Kauai is your tropical home-away-from-home.

Relax and Unwind! Blue Kauai at Islander is the perfect place to relax with great dining and take-out options and live music at the Hukilau Lanai (fine dining) Lava Lava Club (beach side hang-out), Trees (great music/dancing scene and a local favorite!), Coconut Marketplace and weekly farmer's market just a few steps away. Or walk right onto the beach to relax and put your toes in the water. No need for a car here!

Explore! Centrally located on the Coconut Coast just a few miles from the airport, Blue Kauai is in Kapa'a - close to the ruins of the famous Coco Palms resort where Elvis Presley shot the 1961 film, Blue Hawaii. This makes Blue Kauai an ideal base to explore Kauai with both Poipu to the South and Hanalei to the North, an easy 40-45 minutes drive.

Convenience! Grocery stores, the historic beach community of old Kapa'a town and Lydgate Beach Park (ideal for swimming and snorkeling), are all within a 5 minute drive.

Islander on the Beach: Islander is a small resort where the Aloha spirit is alive and well. It's has the feel of "old Hawaii" where everyone you meet is Ohana or family. Guests return to the Islander year after year to reunite with the friends they met here during past visits. Late afternoon at the pool and hot tub is a favorite gathering spot for sharing the days events and making plans for evening adventures. This resort offers studio accommodations, swimming pool with hot tub, as well as BBQ grills, picnic tables, beach side lounges and a poolside tiki bar with live music in the evening twice a week. This complex is non-smoking.

Blue Kauai Islander on the Beach Ocean and Pool View 205: This studio is great for Honeymooners, Couples, and parties up to 2! Beautifully renovated with comfortable Island style furniture, stunning photographs of Kauai, travertine flooring and granite countertops, roomy California KING bed with linens and toweling provided. This studio has Air Conditioning and a flat panel TV, and a bathroom with shower and bath tub. The kitchenette is well equipped with a small refrigerator with a separate freezer section, microwave, coffee maker, kettle for hot water, blender, basic kitchen utensils and tableware.

Note: This condo is not managed by Aston - meaning it has upgraded furnishings and no resort fee! This also means that Daily housekeeping is NOT provided, and guests of Blue Kauai may not use the on-site laundry facilities. However, you may purchase a mid-stay clean including a sheet change and towel exchange based on services requested. And the local laundromat is located 1/4 mile north.

Best Central Location

The studio at the Aston Islander was just perfect. You could really stay here without a car & still get to see a lot of Kauai. With a vehicle it made it perfect to travel to all the different sides of the island.

Great resort, great location

We loved Blue Kauai. The property, Islander on the Beach, was beautiful and well maintained. Our condo was comfortable with just the right amount of amenities included. And the view from the deck was amazing! The location is centrally located in Kapa'a and is perfect if you plan to explore the entire island. If you prefer to stay close to your resort/hotel, the south and northern areas are much nicer in general, but this location was conveniently located to get around and see it all. Also, appreciated that the property is located behind a shopping area - multiple souvenir shops, restaurants, and a market. Was nice for those evenings when we came back exhausted and didn't want to go far.The property owner was quick to respond to questions and provided check-in procedures before our arrival.We would absolutely stay here again!

Relaxing Getaway

We had the best relaxing vacation! This condo was exactly as described and pictured and even better in person. It had everything we needed including beach gear. We loved sitting on the lanai in the mornings for breakfast and getting take out for dinner. You could hear the ocean so well from the room and noise from the pool wasn’t an issue. We enjoyed watching several thunderstorms. the location is perfect for the island and the pool and beach right out front is lovely. We spent our entire first day on the property, sitting by the pool and and at the beach. We can’t wait to be back!

Super Cute

Overall, we had a very nice time at this property. The bed was super comfortable and the refrigerator was very quiet. Super cute! However, the walls are very thin and you can hear a lot of noise. The room was clean but could use a deep clean on the floors, especially the corners, lots of grime. The hallway rugs look a bit shabby too. The grounds were pretty and centrally located. Nice rental.

Loved our stay at Blue Kauai!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Blue Hawaii at Islander on the beach! It is a clean, well appointed unit that had everything we needed to have a really comfortable stay. We had a wonderful view of the courtyard, pool, and the ocean from the balcony where we enjoyed having coffee/tea each morning. It is only a couple minute walk to the beach where we watched the sunrise each day. We also really loved having beach chairs, boogie boards, a mat and an umbrella to use. The location was perfect----not too far to either side of the island and being next to the Coconut Marketplace was fabulous---lots of food, grocery, and shopping options! Communication throughout the whole booking and rental process was smooth, easy, and so appreciated. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Back to Paradise

This was our sixth trip to Kauai and we have gone back to the Islander every single time. The grounds are beautiful and the staff are very pleasant. Of our six trips, this unit was the best updated and supplied yet. The Tommy Bahama beach chairs were absolutely indispensable for our beach excursions. I actually ordered two for home off of ebay while on the beach. There are many great food options within steps of the Islander. We loved to pick up poke at Safeway and have dinner on the lanai overlooking the torch-lit grounds, pool, and ocean. Kauai is the best place on Earth. Kapa'a is the best location to reach all of the island, the Islander is a heavenly haven in Kapa'a, and this unit is one of the best in the Islander. 🤙

Great home base while exploring the island

We hardly spend time in our hotels when we travel because we spend most of it outside exploring. However, it was really nice to come back to an airconditioned unit especially during the summer, not just for the temperature, but also to cut down on the humidity.Our experience at this property was excellent - Candace was helpful throughout the entire stay and the check-in process was effortless. Free parking was a huge plus and easy to find, but it does fill up by the evening.The location of the Islander is also great as it's relatively central to the north and west side of the island. I would definitely stay here again next time I visit. Thank you!

The perfect pied-à-terre in PARADISE!

LOCATION LOCATION! LOCATION! MybHubbyband I have been traveling to Kauai 1-2 times per year for over a decade now and honestly, this wonderful studio is now our favorite location. Islander On The Beach is midway between all Kauai has to offer and being able to walk to our favorite restaurants, lounge on the beach or relax by the pool are just icing on the cake. This charming and cozy studio is decorated with breezy aloha, the AC keeps you cool and the view is OUTSTANDING. And the hosts? WONDERFUL! They are kind and responsive and everything you hope for in a STVR host. We look forward to returning! MAHALO!

This property is in an excellent location. The views from the unit are beautiful. The pool and hot tub are perfectly located right next to the beach. Great little bar at the pool that serves drinks daily from 3-6! Lava Lava Beach Club is right next door and the Coconut Plantation shops and restaurants are across the parking lot. The property sits at the beginning of the famous bike trail which runs 6miles along the ocean.
