Kristen's place was a fine place to call home on our vacation to Kauai. Here are our thoughts based on a December trip with our 1-year old daughter.
PROS: the space is large and a good deal for the south shore. The balcony is a nice size, private, and pretty. The AC worked perfect. There are no resort fees. The location is great-- ~5 min walk to great shops/restaurants and ~5 min drive to Poipu beach. Lots of parking at the complex. The grounds are well maintained.
CONS: I found a big clump of hair stuck in the bath drain and it took a couple days to hear back from the property manager/get someone over to clean it. The carpet is dated and could probably be cleaned better. The pool is not heated and was not very comfortable for me or my 1 year old. The kitchen had a high quantity of items, but they were fairly low quality (flaking teflon pans).
