We enjoyed the stay at Ingrid's apartment. It's a nice quiet convenient location, and the check in process (Ingrid is not on the Island) at the condo reception - with emails from Ingrid - was seamless. The only thing not mentioned is that the condo is across the road from a boarded up large block of land, with access across the land via knocked down boarding. In any event, the beach is rocky so we didn't swim there. You can swim at the beach in front of the Lava Lava club. And make sure you book a car from the airport to get there, and get to other locations on the island for shopping and food. I was surprised there wasn't many fresh food stores around. took a while to find decent food stores. Nevertheless, we enjoyed looking around Kauai.
