Our favorite part of each day was having our coffee on the lanai & watching the sun rise every morning. We could easily walk right over to the beach or down the path to many shops and restaurants.The condo was well equipped with everything we needed & very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

1st time in Kaua’i

The condo is amazing. We stayed 5 days as part of a 10 day trip to the Hawaiian islands. The condo is perfect for touring both north and south. Kapa’a has a nice relaxing feel. Condo was a prime spot with a breathtaking view of the sunrise whether enjoying from the Lanai, living room, or from your master suite. Condo well stocked and has a great touch of class. Nice cool AC and ceiling fans makes your stay very comfortable. 10 out of 10!

All You Need & Ocean Front, Too

We (two couples) stayed for 5 nights in early May. The condo was clean, comfortable, and had all the necessities. We loved the location facing the ocean and enjoyed sunny mornings on the patio. The beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler, and other beach gear were appreciated along with the well-supplied, updated kitchen. We'd gladly return. Highly recommended.

The best place on the whole island. Very convenient location.

Our stay at this condo was absolutely wonderful! The location couldn’t be better—right next to a stunning ocean beach, offering breathtaking views and easy access. The condo was well-equipped with a fully stocked kitchen, making it convenient to prepare meals. It truly felt like a home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Lena Walker

Host profile image
Lena & Ivan live in Steamboat Springs, Colorado where we enjoy skiing, biking, fishing and all the wonderful out-of-doors activities Colorado has to offer. We love our Kauai get away, as the winters are very long and cold in Steamboat - so we are now officially "Snowbirds". Kauai is our winter home; we first came in 2019 and loved it right away. We love outside activities and Kauai has tons to offer.

Why they chose this property

Why Kapaa Town? The first time we went to Kauai, we stayed in Kapaa, a little beach town on the East side of Kauai. It was perfect. It is centrally located, so you can head any direction, and get there quickly. It has lots of shopping, wonderful restaurants, and it is perfectly quaint.

What makes this property unique

Pono Kai has so much to offer. With a pool, hot tub, tennis courts, boche, croquet putting greens. We love the walking trail right out our Lanai door. And don't forget about the beach and ocean that you can hear and see from the Lanai. It doesn't get any better than that.
