We loved this condo!
We stayed in 3 different rentals while in Hawaii (this one in Kauai and 2 separate rentals in Maui), and this was by far our favorite of the 3. In fact, I think this may have been our favorite airbnb we have rented to date. We would not hesitate to book it again next time we visit Kauai! The location was phenomenal, right on the ocean with a view of the mountains and the crashing of the waves at all times of the day. There were plenty of windows so that you could see the ocean from the kitchen, dining area, and living area. The patio was very large and plenty big enough for 4 adults and a toddler, with room to spare. The photos are very accurate. We were never bothered by noise, in fact we never heard any of the neighbors at all while there. It was also great to have the Hideaways Beach right below us, although the paved path down is a heck of a workout on the way back up (very steep!). I can imagine it would be a tricky path if it were raining. The beach was rocky and beautiful, and we had it to ourselves when we went down to see it.
As for more practical matters, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and other supplies needed to cook meals. We cooked in the condo for more than half of our meals and had no issues with needing more dishes. Dishwasher soap was supplied which made it nice for running it while we were out and about during the day. The washer and dryer were great to have in the condo, as well as the laundry detergent that was available for our use. Both bedrooms were a good size and had comfortable beds and pillows. There were plenty of standing fans (as well as overhead fans) and there were great breezes that came through the window vents at night while sleeping. Bathrooms were nice and the showers were huge. It was really nice for the owner to supply A LOT of beach toys, chairs, boogie boards, and a cooler.
The condo was about a 10-minute drive from Hanalei and Hanalei Bay Beach, which were our favorite town and beach on the island, respectively. Walking, Queen’s Bath was only about 10 minutes away as well. A nice golf course and playground were also very close to the condo.
Cash was very easy to get ahold of and very easy to work with. Would definitely work with him again!
