Pros:
- Annie was very responsive to any questions or requests I had. That has not always been my experience on Airbnb with a host and for that I'm grateful.
- This place is aesthetically pleasing and all the accommodations (bed, linens, kitchen, laundry) are high quality and in good working order, except for the dishwasher which is temporarily out-of-order.
- We stayed here over a hotel because we wanted to cook our own meals. Everything you need except for a cast iron skillet is here.
- The location is amazing as Anini Beach is within walking distance. The apartment also comes with its own parking spot.
- The bathroom closet has lots of beach gear from a boogie board to snorkels, which we would've used had we not brought our own stuff.

Cons:
- We experienced a bit of a pest problem with this place. When we arrived, all 3 beds (the king in the main area and the twin beds in the loft) had gecko droppings. We also saw about 5 roaches - some in the kitchen and a dead roach just under the bed. There is thankfully a vacuum and washer/dryer to take care of the droppings. Everything else was in great order. That second night, despite having cleaned/washed the linens, we still found new droppings on the bed and in the kitchen. We think this is due to some of the windows not having screens, which seems to be common in Kauai. So it's not that the last tenant or house keeper is negligent, just that there's nothing keeping these geckos out. We dealt with this by sealing away the clean linens during the day in a giant plastic bin we found in the loft and taking out the trash immediately. Just an FYI.
- For some reason, the street address we were given is the guest house for the complex across the street. If you're arriving at night, when Kauai gets very dark and has little street lighting, this can get very confusing. Once you arrive in Princeville, don't trust your GPS but instead follow Annie's specific directions.
- This is more a con regarding Kauai in general, but the island is overrun with roosters. We had one who would perch on the roof next to our window and crow at 4AM. They crow to defend territory and unfortunately the condo is claimed by no less than 3 roosters :( No matter where you stay in Kauai, bring earplugs.

Overall:
In general we were happy with this apartment and think if screens were installed over the exposed windows to keep geckos and bugs out, this would be a 5 star place.
