We really loved our stay over Christmas! We had high expectations coming in and we were not disappointed. The views and the sound of the ocean were incredible. Watching an oceanside sunset from the lanai with sea turtles swimming below you? It doesn’t get much better than that! We enjoyed having a full kitchen to use; we always feel like locals when we’re bringing groceries home. :) Location was perfect for south side fun in Kauai; close proximity to food, amenities, and activities. A great launching point for the Na Pali coast, Waimea canyon, or any number of amazing snorkeling locations (one of our favorite snorkeling/eating spots? Right next door at the Beach House restaurant). We also appreciated the attention to detail: everything from the included rental car (amazing addition!) to the welcoming gift in the fridge. The communication with Great Vacation Rentals was excellent, fast, and friendly from start to finish. We fell in love with Kauai and Kuhio Shores and we’re already trying to plan a return trip. Highly, highly recommended!
