The location is good.
It is oceanview and you are 1 min walk away from the beach shore. However, it is not safe to swim as the water is rough.
There's no kitchen which is a big downside as you get tired of eating food outside and you just want to have your home cooked meals. Also, take note food is expensive outside, keep in mind the crazy inflation this year.
I do understand you go on vacation and relax. But as a food lover, I love making my own food from their fresh and organic selection that they offer from the Coconut Market place fresh market.
There's also too many cockroach, even though we replaced the garbage everytime (daily 2 a day) and make sure there's no food lying around, cockroach still lives.
I used to live in the tropical, from experience, they need to spray the place with pesticides to kill cockroach etc. in a regular basis.
The water runs slow in the washroom. I normally shower for 10 mins with good running water. However, this place takes me 30- 45mins.
In terms of cleaning, you would have to clean you place up, the cleaner don't do much other than fix your bed when it is cleaning time which is once a week.
Other days, you would have to make sure you do not carry sands from the beach, sweep the floor, throw your garbage. Oh and take note, you make sure that you have enough garbage bag for your stay as they do not give you enough garbage bag. Also, for toiletries, such as papertowels and bathroom tissue. Make sure you conserve or just purchase one so you do not run out as they do not give you a new one.
I would stay in this place for 3 days, but longer than that stay elsewhere, near poipu beach or salt pond beach - has the best beaches. You are also close to the locals and the Waiemea Canyon (most of the look outs and hiking area). I suggest to for you to stay on the South Area of Kauai. The south area is where you can do most stuff. In the north shore, there's not that much to do there.
If I come here, I will stay in the South for sure.
Make sure you do your groceries at Walmart ( 3-3300 Kuhio Hwy, Lihue, HI 96766, United States). It has the best price for almost everything and some are made in Hawaii.
