The location of the condo is at the top of the hill on the far right of the property if you are facing the ocean, it allows for a nice walk down to the beach through the garden to the beach next to the Sheraton. The third-floor unit provides a nice ocean view and cool breezes throughout. The closely located shops across the street were a great option for gelato and a lunch or dinner when needed without the need for a car. Just down the street on the other side of the circle was a larger strip of stores and restaurants that provided a great option for shopping and eating. The forest next door is full of what makes Kaui famous (Roosters and Chickens) and with plantation-style windows, they will most likely wake you up. Part of the charm perhaps... but fyi. We moved the fan into the bedroom for additional noise to help with that at 5am. To be accurate this is clearly not specific to this unit, as the fowl are everywhere. The property had all that we needed. Although there was a remote for a ROKU it didn't work nor were there streaming options. But really, you are in Kaui why spend that watching TV? the older TV's were functional. The wifi was fine. I did have a few, not epic realizations... It was a bit of a surprise that the pool isnt actually on the property however, we had to drive or walk 1/2 mile or so to get there and it was across the busy street, and the pool was packed with children, it was very loud and offered no ocean view. But there was a bar and food options. As a remedy, we ended up sneaking into the pool at the beachfront Sheraton for what for us was a far better experience. To be fair there is a possibility that I did not properly read all the fine print prior to booking this place. That being said, I was surprised when over a month out our son had a school requirement come up, and I wanted to only stay for the weekend and free it up on Sunday instead of Tuesday and was told by Paul that this request did not work for them and we could not change the booking, and we couldn't cancel without paying 50%. This meant it wasnt economically feasable to cancel and rebook somewhere else for a shorter stay. In addition we were emailed after being on the island about , the 265 dollar fee for cleaning and maintenance, and that caught me by surprise. As I said... this could clearly have been on me for not properly reading up and booking this thinking the 199 per night offering meant that and that I was able to change the reservation up to a month out if needed. Instead, if you factor in the cleaning fee, I ended up paying 331 a night for the two nights we stayed. Just an FYI to be sure that you book without a plan of ever needed to change and just be aware that you will have to pay 265 directly to the check in staff when you arrive. Kauai and Poipu were truly beautiful and I dont want to blow up this place as not being truly useful for what we needed. I hope whomever else books this place will enjoy the island as much as we did, and perhaps read the fine print a bit better than I did so they are not surprised by the fee, the pool and the booking concerns we had. Aside from that, which again, a lot of which may speak to my lack of comprehension of what to expect...... caveat emptor...we had a wonderful stay on Kauai
