The location of the condo is central, located in between the former Marriott now Royal Sonesta hotel and the Timbers resort and golf course. It’s a great location if you don’t want to do a lot of driving at night but want to be able to have several options for dinner that are within walking distance - a very lovely restaurant at Timbers, and several next to the Royal Sonesta including Dukes and Portofino‘s. Lihue is also convenient for the number of stores and restaurants right in the vicinity. There is an elevator near the condo that goes to the beach in front of the Royal Sonesta. There is supposedly access to the gym but we weren’t provided with instructions. You can also access a prettier, more private beach by using the shoreline access points on the golf course at Timber’s, which is a short walk from the condo.
The condo itself was very clean. It was inexpensively constructed so there are a few nuances such as a stair leading up to the toilet/shower and difficult to open shower door. The kitchen is well stocked in terms of appliances, but missing some basics, such as salt and pepper, cooking oil, saran wrap and tinfoil, etc. The Wi-Fi was pretty weak and unreliable, but we found this to be an issue all around the island and not just at the condo. The condo did supply beach towels but no other beach items such as chairs, coolers, etc. so bring your own or by when you get there.
