This villa has all the comforts you could ask for, and more. The villa is adorably decorated (the bathroom especially - the Hawaiin sea theme is great), the bed is SUPER comfortable, and having access to a full kitchen was really nice. We enjoyed the putting green as well! The villa gives good access to the west side of the island to explore the towns and trails there, as well as to go on a Na Pali sailing cruise (highly recommend Captain Andy's morning cruise- was the perfect size, great crew, and we saw lots of dolphins which is obviously the most important thing!). My favorite part of Susan's villa is the amazing breeze that comes through when you open the windows. It's truly lovely. Susan was a great host, she left lots of good information for us to help us explore the island. She also was able to accommodate us checking in a bit early, which we appreciated. About the location - we actually stayed at two airbnb places on Kauai this trip, one on the north shore and then this one. For our particular tastes the north shore was more our gig - was less busy with visitors, and we found the snorkeling to be better there this time of year. But I am really glad we did stay on the south shore as well, since it gave us a much better point to explore the west side of the island from. I can highly recommend Susan's villa for a stay on the south shore.
