We had a great stay in northern Kauai after visiting the southern part for my sister's wedding. The location was great, the kitchen was well stocked, and there is a handy washer and dryer (which we used to wash the nice beach towels provided). Laura was very responsive and a good host. Like some other reviews, the unit itself is a little dated although it looks fairly nicer than the photos suggest: furniture is all dark color wood, the fans and stair are now dark colored to help modernize the place. There is also no AC, but in late April the breeze was good enough for us, just something to consider in warmer months. Little things like clearing out the cobwebs and dust and swapping some bath towels for new unstained ones would go a long way in making this stay that much more memorable.
