Extremely happy with our stay

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 5 nights over the Labor Day long weekend and had a blast. The unit is very clean, you can see/hear the beach from your lanai and utilize the pool/hot tub facilities. Also, the location was fantastic making it easy for day trips to either the north or south shores. We would definitely visit again. Thanks!

Great deal on an ideally located studio!

My son & I found the studio to be well sized for us...feels bigger than it is. Lovely ocean view from the lanai & small kitchen has just enough appliances. Right near the shops & restaurants of coconut marketplace so after a day of exploring you can eat a decent meal without having to get back in the car. Check in process super clear, easy & we enjoyed our stay.

Islander on the Beach #257 Kapaa, Kauai

Great sized condo that was perfect for my husband and I. Mini kitchen had everything we needed. Also the location of the property was handy for getting groceries as well as venturing out to Historic Kapaa. Property and grounds are well kept. We had a few questions and the owners were easy and quick to get in contact with, very accommodating.

Relaxing stay

Wonderful relaxing stay at a quiet beach location. Well equipped studio, with everything we needed, and more. Thanks for the little touches like snorkel gear and cooler. We gave the little toaster oven and microwave a work out and saved money for the splurges on dinners out. Coconut Marketplace was perfect for the walking distance strolls for supplies or souvenirs. We loved sitting on the deck with coffee, listening to the waves and enjoying the view.

We will be back !!!!

Our stay was amazing. The condo was perfect for my wife and I. We were on the beach every morning watching the sunrise, one morning and monk seal came by to say hi. Having never been to Kauai before I can say with certainty we will be back and will stay here again. It's centrally located between the north and south sides of the island. So much to see and so little time.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar 2020
Wow Lee, a monk seal huh? We too enjoy those morning sunrises, what amazing beauty to behold! We love too, falling asleep to the sound of the waves! We also get turtles coming in to say hello on occasion! We'd love to have you come back and stay again, the condo awaits you both! Thanks so much for the terrific review! It so helps other travelers make their decision on where to stay! Mahalo nui loa! Jeff and Danise

We barbaqued stacks one night on the grill. The owners were very pleasant and easy toco muni ate with and the price was good. I can't say enough how perfect it was for us.

Great Location wonderful amenities

Great location and all the extras was a huge plus! Cooler, beach chairs, kitchenette, etc. The coconut marketplace was also really nice to have right next door! Only con was the bed and parking. The bed was incredibly soft which we are used to something more firm and the sheets wouldn't stay on, and since there is Trees Lounge right there parking at night time could get difficult. Overall we had a great time! Mahalo for sharing your condo with us!

Solo Trip in Paradise

I decided to venture out on my own, and what a great trip! This studio rental is the perfect location, it was very clean and had all the amenities promised. It even had a couple of snorkeling sets, therefore I didn't have to rent for the week. In the evening the pool, and Jacuzzi were clean and a great place to meet people from all over the US and globally to share stories of the days adventures. Being a solo traveler, I would recommend it to anyone ! Thank you Jeff and Danise !

Just what we wanted!

My husband and I feel the studio was as advertised and the perfect place for our first visit to Kauai. Great view from balcony of beach which was better than some of the others we visited. After an evening swim, so nice to walk to the pool to rinse off then to the studio for nice hot shower. Plenty of space in the studio to relax after a day of seeing the beautiful sights. The studio and grounds of the complex are well maintained Communication with the owners was prompt and informative. We adjusted to how things were in Kauai and found the good in this amazing place!!

Perfect for Us

This condo really contributed to our enjoyment of Kauai. It was clean, and comfortable. We were able to see the ocean from the lanai, spend evenings on a beach that borders the complex and indulge in a lovely pool and hot tub. The location was an ideal base from which to explore the island. There is shopping nearby, some of it only a short walk away. Since the complex is also shared by hotel guests as well as permanent residents there is a low keyed resort atmosphere to this place which was a plus for us. We will recommend this condo to friends and family should they be able to visit Kauai and will hope to stay here again if we are able to return.

Absolutely wonderful!!

The room was exactly as advertised. It was clean, we'll kept and quiet. The air conditioning is wonderful to come into after being out by the pool or beach. The memory foam mattress slept great and was also much appreciated as neither of the properties we stayed at on the other islands had a comfortable bed. The bathroom is roomy with a large vanity and the adjustable shower head is awesome. I would definitely recommend this condo to anyone without hesitation. The owners were very friendly and easy to work with. They replied to every message in a very timely manner, usually in a matter of minutes. Thank you, Mitch & Lorrie P.

It's a cozy studio right by the ocean. You can see and hear the waves!

This studio condo is well equipped for a comfortable stay by the ocean. The kitchenette was surprisingly spacious with toaster oven, microwave and coffee maker. The queen bed was very comfortable. There is a sofa bed, but I would not recommend for adults, maybe for kids it would be okay. So, over all, comfortable, convenient to restos and shopping, and right next to the ocean! Love Islander on the Beach! Danice and Jeff were quickly responsive to my questions. Thanks for the opportunity to spend my month in paradise in your condo. I will return! Mahalo.

Kapaa holiday

All was quite good once we found the silverware and the bath tub mat. Nice location and the room was clean and fairly well stocked. A colander and a couple sharp knives and possibly a knife sharpener would be an improvement. The tub mat was not out in an obvious location and the tub bottom has what appears to be a non-slip texture. Therefore, I was in the shower and slipped, I fell out of the shower on to the floor and bashed my head requiring a trip to the emergency room to get stapled up. Afterwards we searched for a bath mat and found it rolled up and tucked away under the sink. I’m OK, but it could have been worse, I could have easily broken bones. It might be a good idea to put the bath mat in an obvious, visible location so that people don’t think the tub bottom is slip free. Once we used the bath mat, no more injuries occurred.😎Will

Very nice

Unit is small, but clean and more than adequate. No problems really. Likely because of covid restrictions there were no towels at the pool. Having a cooler and beach chairs in the room was a pleasant and useful surprise. Would like clearer instructions in how to use the TV.

Nice view of the ocean from the lanai. It was nice sleeping to the sound of the ocean just footsteps away. Coconut marketplace and many other shopping and dining options close by. The property is clean, updated, granite counters, travertine floors. The bed was comfortable. Fridge, microwave, toaster oven, dishes, utensils, cooler, beach chairs, and beach towels provided. Beautiful landscaping on the property. Pool, hot tub, and grill are nice.

Islander on the beach

The visit was great in most respects. Loved the location. I have only a few concerns. First, I thought this condo was on the ground floor. I suppose that might have been my mistake. I wish we had known how many establishments were still closed. A heads up about traffic would have been helpful, but that is not really your responsibility. It was a wonderful visit.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Apr 2021
Aloha James, Were so glad that you had a wonderful visit! We'll have to make it more clear in the listing that it's on the second floor, we've just assumed with the number being 257 that people would know that it's second floor. Traffic can be a bear sometimes, we try and look at it, that the island is getting busy again with lots of tourists! Businesses being closed, are just the reality of post Covid right now. With the island completely shut down for almost a full year, many businesses just couldn't hang on. We hope that with tourists returning, new businesses and old will get up and running! Again, we love hearing that you had a wonderful visit! Jeff and Danise
