This very clean beachfront condo was perfect for us. Communication was easy and access was even easier. The condo was very clean and quiet. We appreciate it being able to walk into town. We could see the whales in the far distance blowing spouts. The water in front of the condo was perfect for teaching my niece how to snorkel. We had a fantastic week and we’ll probably return in the future.

Great location and views. Very clean and welcoming. The living room furniture is actually updates from photos and has two recliners now. Such an easy place to walk by the icean or into town for a large choice of food options. We only used our rental one day for a quick trip to Poipu. The resort has a lot of easy to use recreational activities. Good communication with Property Manager.

Quiet clean and functional

The family needed a place with a washer and dryer (which was conveniently downstairs of the building), a kitchen, and multiple beds for the kids, which this place was perfect for! The loft made it especially fun for the kids. Right on the ocean, and away from the road, the condo was quiet when we needed it to be.

Beautiful view!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was PERFECT! Watching the sunrise from the balcony and while walking on the long, paved walking path were highlights of the trip. Staying in Kapa'a gave easy access to the whole island as it is centrally located, and only 15 minutes from the airport. Even though it is clearly not a new building, the property was clean and accommodating. Garden Island Properties was great to deal with when I had a question (Claire was particularly helpful). We would happily stay again!

The condo was exactly as the pictures showed. We had plenty of space for out family of four and everything was there that we needed. The views were amazing and we enjoyed many a sunrise sitting on the balcony drinking our morning coffee. We were within a short walking distance of the shops/cafes/restaurants and the walking path right outside our door was also great. The amenities of the complex like tennis courts/swimming pool/equipment rentals for the beach/putting green/etc were used quite a bit and it was convenient to have all of that on the property. Overall we enjoyed our stay, never had any issues or concerns and would definitely stay here again.
