Very pleasant and accommodating host and their representative both for an early check-in and late checkout. Additionally a small issue we commanicated was immediately addressed. The apartment was super clean when we arrived. It was easy to figure out the lockbox to enter. We saw a well stocked kitchen from condiments to kitchenware and utensils. There's a newer spacious fridge, and washer dryer, all of which were very useful for our family of four. The apartment has a nice view to the beautiful ocean from the Lanai (balcony). Although there was no air conditioning as stated in the description, the cross airflow from the kitchen window, the bedrooms and if opened, the main door provided ample cooling to be comfortable. The night sky was beautiful to see from the Lanai and the grounds with clear view of the stars, and is ideal for astro photography buffs. If we were to come back again we would certainly choose this property and host again. Highly recommended.

Great Property
This is a great rental property. The unit is clean and well stocked with everything you need to be comfortable…..the place just feels like home. The location can’t be beat and it is an easy drive to get anywhere on the island. The view is spectacular, we especially love seeing the whales and viewing the sunset is popular with many people staying at this property. The pool and hot tub are a nice option and fabulous beaches are within walking distance. Turtles and Monk Seals are often on the beaches. Even though there are good restaurants nearby the condo is still in a quiet neighborhood. Beat of both worlds! Can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful condo
My family of 6 (4 teens) stayed here from Jan2-9. Condo was a little tight for 6 adult sized people, but we're in Hawaii, we made it work. We ended up borrowing an air mattress from a friend and had that in the second bedroom, so only one person slept on the pull-out bed. Condo was great. We love this location in Kauai. We loved being able to watch the sun rise and set over the ocean each day. I loved sitting on the balcony each morning while I ate breakfast. One morning the whales were really putting on a show that i could just sit and enjoy watching. We loved being able to walk to the Grand Hyatt for coffee. We loved being able to walk to get a Puka dog. We loved that the turtles and monk seal beaches could be walked to, along with a snorkel beach and a boogie board beach. We loved walking and looking in the tide pools. We used the cooler a few times and enjoyed the boogie boards and chairs that came with the condo. I never cooked a dinner in the condo but the kitchen seemed well stocked. Plenty of pillows and towels. Having beach towels there was great. I would recommend this condo to anyone and would come back in a heartbeat.

Wonderful Condo
We’ve been to Hawaii more than a dozen times, and this condo is definitely a find, and a value. The unit is well maintained/upgraded, and very tastefully decorated. The bed is very comfortable. The furniture and the kitchen appliances seem new. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware in good condition. Even the beach chairs and umbrella are quality. The Makahuena complex itself is a bit weathered, and pretty bare-bones, but the grounds are nicely maintained. There seems to be a mix of mainly visitors with some residents. The complex is situated on beautiful lava cliffs that the waves crash against endlessly. If you come, make sure to visit Poipu beach at sunset to watch the Green Sea Turtles haul themselves onto shore for the night.

Wonderful property!! So spacious, stylish, and comfortable. No a/c (very typical for hawaiian homes) but it was never a problem for our family. They had multiple fans in the rooms AND effective ceiling fans. There was never any direct sun into the home which kept the home at an easy temp all day. Over all it was a great place to stay!
