I am so conflicted about writing this review because I think the hosts are doing their best, but this area is only about a mile from a sewage treatment site and when that stench hits, it is brutal. This makes me feel bad for the property owners because this isn’t their fault, but I think if you’re going to book this unit expecting an experience based on the overall 9.8 score of reviews, you will be disappointed. This is a good place to explore the island, but not a great place to spend time in the unit. It is certainly affordable and I think a good value for Kauai; which is a small and expensive island. The hosts were responsive and the unit is clean, however, it is very very outdated and very hot and uncomfortable with some broken things such as the shower door with a dangerous sharp broken metal piece you have to be careful not to get cut on. The unit and the outdoor lanai are pretty dark and dreary at night. I felt like I got the steal of a lifetime when we arrived in the afternoon to the beautiful view, but as soon as the sun is down that view of the ocean becomes a view of freeway and aside from hearing the tide, it felt like I was in any random town, not a tropical island. The condo is located on a very busy street across from a gas station. Overall, this place is centrally located and affordable and great so long as your expectations are tempered, but I definitely was a bit disappointed in the location and condition of the unit.

This place was excellent! It was perfect being centralized on the island. The host was responsive, the condo was clean, and the place was stocked with everything we needed. The pool area with the grills was perfect. Sunrises on the balcony every morning was great! The condo manager was very nice and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

I’ve stayed at this condo several times. The view is unbeatable! Love the location of Wailua Bay View condos near Kapa’a. Beach amenities are a plus…chairs, boogie boards, cooler, umbrella and (freeze packs to keep things cold). Plenty of beach towels, bath towels and kitchen amenities. We also enjoy the bbqs to cook our meals. Will definitely return in the future.

Wialua Bay View is the bomb

Great property right on the Wialua bay. Walking distance to several great restaurants and the best bakery on the island. Centrally located so you can head north to Honilie or south to Poi pu. The sound of the surf puts you to sleep each night and the rooster gives you a wakeup call!

Loved hearing the waves and the view was very nice. We were so glad for the chairs, cooler, shade umbrellas, beach boards & all the beach supplies. The bed comfortable and it was so nice to have fans throughout the apartment & a/c. We throughly enjoyed ourselves.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Manager

Host profile image
Our family has arrived on Kauai five generations ago. We love the East side of the island for its proximity to the beach, the varied outdoor activities that are close, and to restaurants and shopping. We also appreciate being central to visits to both the North and South shores of the island.
