Nice location..but

Condo was not exactly what I would have expected for the money we spent for the 7 days. The grounds, pool, pool bar and the ocean view were very nice. The condo was very, very outdated and there was a terrible smell from mildew. The worst was the smell of mildew from the closet. The closet had to be left open so my wife’s clothes didn’t reek. We stayed there a week and we were provided only 2 washcloths and four towels. The bedding was very dingy and overused. I will return to Kauai but won’t take the chance of getting stuck with that type of condo at that location.

Wailua

Loud, horrible foam mattress, no fresh towels, no laundry on site, hard to communicate with anyone, Wailua is not a great place to stay. The beach is small and slopes down. The pool was small, crowded and dirty. The traffic thru Wailua is very congested and almost impossible to get anywhere.

Second Honeymoon!

What a time! 50 steps to the beach! Restaurants and shopping in easy walking distance. The East shore location was perfect for going to the North shore or South shore. We had a blast!
