If you're considering Oceanfront Rhythm for your next trip to Kauai, and it's available, you should stop reading this review and just book it now; you won't regret it! My partner and I just got back from our first trip to Kauai, and Oceanfront Rhythm provided an incredible foundation for an absolutely amazing vacation.
First, the location is just perfect. It is truly oceanfront! You can see the ocean from nearly every room in the house, and the sound of the waves breaking at the end of the road is pleasant day and night. It is also right next to the Kapaa bike path that runs North/South along the shore. So if you're looking to take advantage of one of the many bike rental options in town, or if you just want to be able to walk into town for dinner or shopping, it's incredibly easy to do either.
Second, the home itself is wonderful. It has tons of thoughtful touches that make it feel warm and welcoming, and Oceanfront Rhythm was a great size even for just two people. The house also has everything you could possibly need for your time inside the house and for when you are out and about the island; we're talking details like ice packs in the freezer to put in the cooler they provide you as part of a larger set of beach day gear.
Finally, Wayne and Kim are incredible hosts. They were always ready to provide anything we might have needed, which largely ended up being tips or information about the island (since the house already came with everything else). They always got back to us right away from the time leading up to our trip to as we were leaving. Especially for two people who had never been to the island before, they helped immensely and always made us feel welcome. I can't recommend them or their home enough!
