We will absolutely be staying at Waipouli Beach Resort again, HOWEVER
we will be looking into other management companies/properties first.
If you are a family looking for a pool focused vacation, centrally located to shops/restaurants/airport/activities in a beautiful beach setting with a full kitchen that won't cost $1000 a night- this is the place for you!
Pros: built in kids beach at the end of the pool, lazy river, slides, kids hot tub that is cooler than the two 16 and up hot tubs, beautiful condo with big kitchen and bathrooms, restaurant on site, across from safe-way grocery store, etc
Cons: this unit B404 was really far from an elevator to begin with and then our nearest elevator broke the night before we checked out!!!

Traffic can back up from here to Lihue to be sure to plan accordingly, 20 minute drive could actually mean 60 minutes.
One of the bedroom ocean views is blocked by a beautiful tree.
No kids gear to speak of, could not get a high chair, or pack and play. No young kids cups, bowls, utensils, or pool/beach gear.
Kaua'i management left me wanting (but not receiving) way more communication, and properly working appliances (Drier and AC) for $650 a night.
I also never received any info from the "24 hr concierge" phone number despite calling and requesting it before the trip.
