vacation at Lanai Villas

My daughter and I stayed in the Queen Suite at Lanai Villas. It was small but comfortable and we enjoyed the deck outside the living room/bedroom. The queen size bed in the bedroom was very comfortable. The futon in the small living room was comfortable with the extra foam mattress that was available.The landlord, Cam was responsive to any questions, and very pleasant. We arrived after dark, but as was explained (prior to arrival) by email, the front door was unlocked and instructions and welcome letter was posted inside with directions to our suite, where keys, beach towels, and a box of chocolates awaited us! The overhead fan and screened windows made sleeping comfortable (we were there in February).We used the beach chairs that were available to us, and we chose to drive to the beach - Poipu.I would definitely stay there again.

Close to great beaches

Tiny apartment in an older house. Lack of AC was manageable but needed to pay attention to closing and opening windows and using fans, very convenient for us as was about 5 min walk from the house other family members rented. Lovely network of walking paths in area

The place is sweet, with all you need in terms of amenities. Even a gift of macadamia chocolate nuts. Entry is easy and great location for beaches and restaurants. I loved the outdoor deck for relaxing between activities.

Quick trip to Kauai in between Big Island vacation.

Everything was set up well for what we needed. Communication was great. Slept great both nights. Close to beach and restaurants. Owner had alot of things we could borrow, such as body boards, beach chairs, snorkel gear, small coolers, and many other things. For the price it's pretty hard to complain about anything unless your just a miserable unhappy person. Thanks Cam for an easy and pleasant stay.

Great location

We selected the property as an affordable option for a friends wedding at the Hyatt next door. It was a great spot and only a 5 min walk to the Hyatt to be able to join all the wedding events and shuttles easily. It is also a 5 min walk to the beach. The property is quaint and cozy. Easy checkin and communication. One thing worth noting is the unit does not have air conditioning. I’m sure this is fine most times of the year but was warm when we visited in August. The owner lives upstairs and brought us extra fans

Poipu

This was an affordable and conveniently located spot on the south shore. It was far from fancy but a great option for those that are planning to spend most of their time out exploring all the natural beauty Kauai has to offer. There was a minor issue with delayed check-in instructions from the host, but it seemed likely that it was a one-off issue. The rest of the communication was great

great stay in Poipu apartment

I stayed at this property for 2 days so that I could attend a wedding at the Hyatt which is a 5-minute walk on the greenbelt. The location was perfect. The apartment was well stocked; bed was comfortable; shower was great. Lots of beach items (chairs, snorkels, fins, boogie boards). Very quiet. Easy check in process. Highly recommend.

Just what we needed

Cam's property was perfect for us. The location was great. It was quiet and relaxing. We were able to find our way around the neighborhood easily. The instructions were easy and user friendly. Things were set up for our arrival. There were plenty of chairs, umbrellas, etc. for beach use. The linens were clean and comfortable. The kitchenette had everything we needed to cook. We ate breakfast there daily as we wanted to explore the local cuisine for lunch and dinner. We felt at home here. We would happily return.

Nice stay close to beach

Nice little place, you basically get a small apartment all to yourself. The cooking area has the basics if you want to cook at home. A lot of great beach gear was provided which was super nice. A small beach 10 min walk from the house was great.
