First time in Kauai

We absolutely loved the Pono Kai Resort and the condo unit we stayed in. The location was excellent, the view was stunning, the condo was very clean & uncluttered, the promenade along the beach was perfect and Kapa'a Old Town was a great place to shop, eat, browse or just plain stroll. The accessibility to the other shores made the location ideal. Staying at Pono Kai is definitely a "do-over".

Awesome Condo and location

Condo's location in Kapaa was perfect for touring the island and seeing the sights. The condo complex and unit itself are very well cared for. Enjoyed hearing the ocean from the lanai or from the living room with the patio door open. Would definitely stay hear again.

GREAT LOCATION AND VALUE

We enjoyed our time in Kauai. What a beautiful place, We drove all the way from Poipu to the edge of the North Shore. Thís room is centrally located and perfect for that. The weather wasn't great but we made the most we could of it. The bed is small (full size) and the mattress and pillows are the pits. Needs a good upgrade there! Thanks
