The place was very clean and looks just like the pictures featured. The kitchen was well stocked, and the air conditioning in the master bedroom worked great. The condo itself is well taken care of; however, the Kapaa Shore resort is dated and the landscaping needs some upkeep, grass is dead, paint peeling. Also, the pool area is mediocre, no umbrellas, just the bare minimum.

Manager's Response

Aloha Dennis, thank you for your stay with us. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the condo and oceanfront views! We appreciate your feedback regarding the exterior of the property/pool area. We will be happy to share your comments with the association of the resort. We do hope to have the opportunity to host you again. Mahalo, Garden Island Properties

The view at this location was breathtaking! I was a little bummed to discover that you can’t really swim at this beachfront property. Other than that, everything was great!

Manager's Response

Aloha Heidi, thank you for your stay with us. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the oceanfront views! The beach fronting the property is a shallow reefy tide pool beach not recommended for swimming. We would recommend Lydgate beach park for swimming and snorkeling located roughly 2.4mi from the property. Mahalo nui loa, Garden Island Properties

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Kapaa Shore Resort. Great centralized location to Princeville and also Poipu Bay. Our only complaint would be the portable AC was not working in the best condition during our stay. It was not blowing out cool air the whole time we were there.

Manager's Response

Aloha Kris, thank you for your stay with us! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the property and central location. We are sorry to hear that the portable AC in the bedroom was not working properly and would have been happy to have sent maintenance to resolve the issue. We were able to service the portable AC unit after your departure and it is in good working condition. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again. Mahalo nui loa, Garden Island Properties

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. We had a beautiful view of the ocean and the sunrise. The listing said air conditioning, but it did not say that the air conditioning was only in the bedroom. That made it uncomfortable in the living room in the afternoons. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub.

Manager's Response

Aloha Patricia, Thank you for your review! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the oceanfront view. I’m sorry if the air conditioning situation was unclear. As mentioned in our listing description, the portable AC is located in the bedroom only (due to association restrictions). We also provide ceiling fans and portable fans for the living room, and you can enjoy the sea breezes by opening the sliding glass doors. We do offer units with AC throughout and would be happy to assist you with finding the perfect place for your next visit. Mahalo for staying with us! ~Garden Island Properties

We stayed this lovely ocean view condo in Kauai, and it was an unforgettable experience. The breathtaking views of the ocean from the lanai were truly mesmerizing and set the perfect backdrop for a relaxing vacation. The condo was immaculate and beautifully furnished, offering a serene and comfortable environment.

One of the highlights was the attention to detail in providing small comforts that made our stay even more enjoyable. From the well-stocked kitchen to the plush towels and comfortable bedding, everything was thoughtfully provided. The hosts were incredibly hospitable, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect stay.

The location was ideal, with easy access to beautiful beaches, local shops, and delicious restaurants. We loved waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying our morning coffee with such a stunning view.

Overall, I highly recommend this condo for anyone looking to experience the best of Kauai with all the comforts of home. We can't wait to return!

Manager's Response

Aloha Karen, thank you for the outstanding review! We are so glad that you had a memorable stay. It was a pleasure hosting you on Kauai. We look forward to your return! Mahalo, Garden Island Properties

The condo itself was clean, well-stocked, and overall as-advertised. The ocean view was beautiful. The air conditioner unit in the bedroom was very loud and didn't appear to do much, so sleeping at night was hot. The back side of the property (where we entered through) was looking a little rough, but the beautiful ocean view on the other side made up for it. The pool and hot tub were nice.

Manager's Response

Aloha Stephanie, thank you for your review. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the condo and oceanfront view! The portable air conditioner is serviced on a regular basis and intended for the bedroom only. We recommend closing the bedroom door at night to allow the room to cool properly. We hope to welcome you back to visit again. Mahalo, Garden Island Properties

Great central location. Nice view, but no sandy beach out front. All lava. Sandy beach is further down but you have to cross private property. Pool and hot tub are nice. Portable AC unit works well for bedroom but has little impact on kitchen/living room. So can be warm for guests using the Murphy bed.

We had an amazing time at this B&B in Kauai! Ha’paa is such a great town on the island. It is close to a grocery store and multiple restaurants. We loved being able to walk across the street after a long day of driving to pick up something to eat. The lanai was great! Perfect view of the ocean and that ocean breeze was so refreshing. The place was very clean and the hosts were extremely responsive. Loved that they were proactive and sent great reminders during our stay. Will definitely make sure we stay here again when we come to visit. Thanks again! We had such a great time and I have you to thank for a lot that. Mahalo!

Just returned from our first trip to Kauai. It was wonderful. We really enjoyed our unit and will miss the amazing views and the morning sunrises. This place was as described. It was decorated in the typical Hawaiian theme. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen had all the necessities. The lanai was perfect to have a meal and enjoy the view. The property manager was very responsive to any inquiries. Safeway is close by as well as some really good restaurants, Starbucks,ABC Store,etc. The beach in front is not really for swimming but other beaches are close by. We didn’t rent a car (but will next time) but we were able to use Uber when needed. As stated there was no air conditioning but found it to be quite comfortable as there were fans in both the living room and bedroom. We can’t wait for our next trip. One thing, the roosters get up very early so if that is an issue would suggest earplugs. Didn’t really bother us and they are all over the Island so it wasn’t an issue specific to this unit. We would definitely stay again.

The property is extremely clean. The pool area was never too crowded, and it was well maintained. The location is perfect to be close enough to all parts of the island. The unit itself was as described. Sitting on the balcony is so relaxing. We didn’t need AC because of the constant breeze from the ocean. The mattress is very comfortable. We are returning in August and would stay here if there was room for 4.

This little condo is perfect. The bed was very comfortable and the views from the lanai were fantastic. The beach out front is amazing to go tide pooling. And just a short stroll along the beach you will find pretty decent swimming spots. The pool and hot tub were excellent as well. The building the condo is in is off to the side of the main resort buildings which was fantastic for privacy. Plus it was the only building that had direct ocean facing lanis. I was a bit worried about the room being too hot for sleeping, but they provided more than a few fans to get the air moving. The only downside was that there wasn't a washer/dryer in the unit. I would absolutely recommend staying here. Centrally located and a quick and easy walk to stores/restaurants. Plus being in Kapaa, you can make it to either side of the island in an hour or less. (Traffic can be a duzy in Kauai). Mahalo!!

We so enjoyed our stay in this condo. 10 minutes after walking through the door and opening the sliding glass door to the lanai, we knew we picked the right place. The condo was extremely clean as well as the pool area. The view of exceptional. Talked to couples who had been there three or four times and I can see why. So well located and we walked to dinner at great restaurant a couple of times and having Safeway right there was a plus! Hope to be back someday. Mahalo!

Everything was as described. Be aware that roosters are very loud very early in the morning and you need good ear plugs and turn on the fans/close the windows to get any sleep. Surprising there are places with no AC on the island. But it's in the descripion. The resort is nice. Wasn't a fan of Kapa'a though.

Manager's Response

Aloha Tasha and thank you for your stay. We are sorry to hear about the noise disturbance early morning. Although Kauai is known for it's wild chicken population, we would have been happy to have contacted a groundman onsite to assess the situation. This oceanfront unit provides a pleasant cross breeze when opening the lanai slider door and windows. Kapaa is a central and convenient location popular to most visitors. We are glad you enjoyed the resort and appreciate your insights. Mahalo nui loa, Garden Island Properties

Great condo, lovely view from lanai, convenient location. Equal distance to north shore activities and to Poupu, Waimea. Lots of linens provided; large, safe walk-in shower. In addition to the proverbial rattan sofa, two comfortable easy chairs. The street-facing side of the building is in an alley that gives an unkempt appearance that initially alarmed us, but the interior of the condo and all the resort grounds were immaculate. Be prepared to haul your suitcases several hundred yards and up to the second floor. We’d definitely stay here again. The rental folks were very accommodating when we ran into two self-created problems.

Aloha Lynn, so happy you enjoyed the condo and ocean view! This property is conveniently located in a central location making it easy to explore the island.

This was a great rental! We were concerned that we would not like it because there was no air conditioning but the ocean breeze was great! Because of a pre planning problem we stayed in another property close to this one that had AC but we actually preferred this property. It felt super homey, had a large linai with direct views to the ocean and was all around great! The only thing lacking was in room laundry which would have been very helpful since the coin operated laundry was not great.

There is a Safeway within walking distance, and as we were travelling all over the island the location felt quite central.

There was a nice hottub and swimming pool on the property along with plenty of BBQ's. We would definitely look into this place again when staying on Kauai.

We had another wonderful vacation! We have been coming to Kapaa Shores since 2005 & only missed a few years during that time. We have seen a lot of upgrades over the years in unit 202 and all for better. However, this is not a complaint but just some advice. The bedroom dresser is long over due for a change. Again as we have said in the past, the unit is clean and all of the Staff @ Kapaa Shores is very friendly & accommodating. We feel it is our home away from home!

The condo was clean...but a little out dated for todays times. Maybe redo a little of the bathroom to make it a nicer and the bedroom dresser stick when you try and open them. For those of you that arrive late and would like to have coffee in the morning before you head out, not going to happen. That would be something nice they could add. Over all, its a nice little place to stay if there is only two of you and your not there a lot.

"Mahalo" for your review. We are glad to hear you found the condo clean! All units are as advertised provided with a full kitchen including coffee makers. Directly across the street from this property are two major grocery stores including Safeway that is open 24 hours. In the same shopping center there is also a Starbucks for coffee lovers! We have a brand new dresser in the bedroom. Aloha from Kaua'i.

Clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the shore and sun. Many fine restaurants within walking distance, but plenty of pots and pans for your own cooking. Good water pressure in the kitchen and bathroom, including the shower. Hot water is immediate. Nice tile work on the shower room floor. Hardwood floors throughout. Recommend taking shoes off at the entry to avoid tracking dirt and sand into the unit. It may be disconcerting that there is no air conditioning. But the balcony faces the ocean and the off shore breeze. We opened the sliding glass door and let the breeze cool the unit off which was effective and quick. There are also a number of fans which we made liberal use of. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. The cable service provider is Spectrum which was new to us and presented some challenges, but we didn't go to Kauai to watch TV. The pool and grounds are well kept. On-site laundromat uses quarters (1.50/1.25), recommend you bring quarters. Washers and dryers all worked well. You need a key to get into the laundromat that you can get from the office. The grass is like a putting green and feels like carpet under your feet. Unit #202 appeared to be maintained better than the neighboring units, paint, eaves & window security. We were very happy with this unit.

Garden Island Properties were very quick in answering my questions, love the App they have very helpful and easy to use.The only thing that I would suggest is a new coffee pot and most of all a new mattress most definitely a new mattress, it was pretty uncomfortable, that would be the only thing I would complain about,2 weeks on it and we were pretty sore, we would definitely stay here again, Hate to complain about it because our stay was wonderful.

Despite six days of torrential rain, we enjoyed our first trip to Kauai. The accommodations were very nice. The condo complex itself, while a bit dated, did not show in Unit 202. The unit was very well provisioned, and a fully equipped kitchen. The Murphy bed in the living room was very comfortable and beats any pull out I've ever slept on. The unit was very clean as well. The only issue we experienced were the occasional nocturnal visits from the small ants on the counter tops. Despite being extra diligent in securing all food items in the refrigerator, they made their appearance anyway.
This is a privately owned unit I'd recommend. Incredible view from the balcony.

First time visit to Kauai. Very pleasant correspondence with Garden Island Properties. Condo was as described & had everything we needed.Loved the view from Lanai. Just a few things that would improve the condo: more overhead lighting in living room/bedroom; replace carpet with hardwood or tile. Even though carpet had been cleaned, due to the fact that it was very old, it did have a musty smell. We bought air fresheners that help a little bit. We will be back.

We have stayed at the "Shore" several times before. We are not fussy about luxury but are more concerned about amenities and cost. This condo fits our needs well. We are not the typical travelers that stay at the condo most of the time. We are older adventurers that find most of our time hiking, beaching and exploring. This unit fills our needs. It has a nice deck and view which gives you a choice to have meals in or out on the deck. Since the beach front does not have a sandy beach we walk down the beach line(south) a few hundred feet to the sandy beach or spend time at the many beaches on the island.

This is a good choice right on the ocean having a one bedroom and a kitchen. No beach earea but there are plenty of public beaches around you. Also this condo is at start of walking path that runs for miles along the ocean. This facility is an older but clean complex. Units nearby going though renovation but work kept to inside so did not bother us. Two good restrauants on ocean with in walking distance, Lava on the Beach and Bull Shed. Sam's a litte futher to walk but great music while you eat... that is if Miki Miller is playing. Landscaping in front of this building needs to be spruced up.

we were a little surprized that we were not notified earlier about all the issues going on @ kapaa shores. even if we wanted to change our plans we could not have done so on such short notice. just to let you know we purchased a new coffee pot because we were not sure if the one that was there was replaced.a good faith discount from garden island properties would be a nice gesture next time we travel to kauai. it cost us a lot to travel all the way from nj, and also takes a lot of advance planning for a trip like that,and we always give garden island properties and kapaa shores 1st priority.

Condo #202 was a very comfortable, homey place to stay. It is oceanfront and the view from the lanai is awesome!! We saw a couple of whales from the lanai during our recent stay. The bed is comfortable. Everything was clean and ready upon our arrival. It is well appointed with everything you could possibly need except shampoo, which is fine as everyone has their own preference on shampoo. The neighbors and other visitors were very nice and fun to talk to. The condo management team was great -- very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this condo to others. It was very close to shopping, the grocery store, post office and several attractions. It's also very close to the airport.

The condo is centrally located to everything the island has to offer..1/2 way to either end of the island. If you decided to never leave the condo the ocean view is spectacular.The only wish would be that there were better pots and pans and less kitchen junk so that groceries could be put away. The only room is on the kitchen counters. The new couch is very uncomfortable.
