Overall the condo was nice, clean and as described inside. However, we didn’t realize it right next to a noisy road. It might have been mentioned in the description, but I can’t remember. We did enjoy the view and listening to the waves.

Is as pictured.
Located well for our plans, the place was very clean bed was comfortable. The only noise we had was waves and occasional EMS vehicles going by..not a problem. A/C is only in the bedroom which was ok for our temps there.Homeless, semi problem hanging out in parking area below the lanai and further down the beach. Only saw a couple drug deals and one fight between a male and female homeless couple.Great food and craft beer at Napoli Brewery across the street Best Fish/Chips I've ever had. BV's in Coconut Market Place also close Great Pizza .Ohana Fishing Charters if you want an Awesome Captain and mate,Brought home plenty for a few days there..Besides that have a Great time .And Yes I would stay here again.

Perfect for us!
Unit was clean, comfortable, well-kept, had all amenities for: cooking, laundry, beach-faring, plus AC in bedroom (though we didn’t need it.)Pool is well-maintained, has tables, lawn chairs, a shower, and restrooms which is very convenient with a 3rd story unit.View from the Lanai was great and overlooks Wailua beach which is mere steps away. This beach is great for sunrise/sunset strolls, sunbathing and quick cool-off dips, but not recommended for swimming. (Not to worry! There are others very close by!)The building has very friendly and helpful staff who were a pleasure to converse with and full of recommendations. It is also in a great location. (While it does sit right on the highway and as a result comes with some light traffic noise, it was by no means overwhelming or obnoxious. The highway parallels the coast, so any waterfront property will come with this as a caveat.)There is a brewery and a bakery right across the street, a market and ABC store within a two minute walk, and a Safeway for groceries/beverages a four minute drive North.Kealia Beach, our favorite in the area, is white sandy beaches, huge, with ample public parking, restrooms, and has great surf for boogie boarding if you choose, or just walk a few hundred feet to the North end of the beach and it mellows out in the shelter of the seawall. Perfect for casual bobbing about!Overall we loved this unit and are already planning our next trip to the island with hopes this unit is available!

This was an amazing place to stay. Very clean other than the carpet under the bed really needed some vacuuming and there was a black hair on the sheets (I'm blonde). Other than that, spotless and very clean! Would definitely stay here again.

Great Location for Exploring the Entire Island!
Pros:
- Bay view, trade breezes, and wave sounds from lanai.
- Sunrises from small back yard of resort.
- Central, east "Coconut" coast location; an hour or less to any destination on the island. 12 minutes to airport.
- Close to restaurants, grocery stores, shops, Lydgate Beach Park, Ke Ala Hele Makalae trail, hiking, Wailua River & Falls.
- Well-equipped unit, including kitchen, bathroom, and beach needs (towels, umbrella, snorkeling).
- Nice, uncrowded swimming pool.
Cons:
- Air conditioning in only the bedroom, but trade breezes compensate beautifully.
- On the edge of urban area (with busy gas station off busy main thoroughfare and people occasionally congregating nearby).
- Before knowing it was the old, iconic Seashell Restaurant, the abandoned property next door was a concern. After researching, this became an interesting highlight!

Central location, 'almost' paradise
The location is great if you plan to visit all of the island. It will not be more than an hour drive to get to either the northern or southern end, with most points of interest a short drive or walk away.
This location is off a main highway with a bridge under construction, there is a lot of driftwood on the beach, and some harmless, but often loud semi-homeless folks occupy part of the beach. One of the main reasons this location was selected was because of the view and easy access to the beach, so the reality was a little disappointing. That said, we did spend time on the beach, and felt completely safe.

This property is convenient to shopping and restaurants. It is very close to the highway and the noise was more than I expected. With that being said though, I would most definitely stay here again. It was clean. The view was amazing. The pool area was beautifully maintained. I had an issue with the hair dryer but it was quickly taken care of. Great customer service!

Beautiful beach view. Convenient location
This condo had everything you'll need. Great view of the beach, wonderful decor, great location central to visiting to all parts of Kauai. We've stayed at this complex before. Very clean grounds, very nice pool with BBQ area. Many places to eat and drink within walking distance to just a couple of miles. Markets also very close by. The only drawback is the noise from the highway. This is the only way between east and west Kauai, so there is traffic all night. If you're accustomed to traffic noise, a heavy sleeper or very early riser, this won't bother you. All in all it was a great place to stay!
PS - Need to mention great onsite staff and response to a couple of minor issues by property manager.
Since this was our first time in Hawaii it was difficult to know where to stay. However, this condo met most of our needs for our vacation. We really appreciated having the beach chairs, umbrella and cooler to use at the beach and while exploring the island. The location of the condo on the island made it convenient to get anywhere on the island within 30-40 min. However, the condo is right next to the main road and there was significant road noise. Also, the condo is not air conditioned, except the bedroom, and it was very hot during our stay. Having the bedroom air conditioned made it bearable but it's not ideal to have to hang out in the bedroom in order to stay cool. Also, for those with mobility issues, please note that the condo is on the third floor and there is no elevator.
Overall, I am glad that we stayed at a condo instead of a hotel. It was nice being able to make our own breakfast before we went out for the day. Also, except for the road right next to the condo, the view was amazing and listening to the waves makes you really feel like you are on vacation.
