This was a great condo for our recent vacation to Kauai. The ocean views from the lanai are wonderful. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck watching whales breaching and all the nenes and other birds who appeared to live on the property.
Having access to a beach via the paved path was great. Since this access was limited to property residents/guests only the beach was quiet every day. This beach is mostly shady until later in the day but it is a beautiful beach and snorkeling is possible if the water is calm. The paved path down to the beach is very steep the first 10 feet or so, but as long as you take it slow and deliberate it is very doable, even in flip-flops.
The condo was well equipped in the kitchen, had all the appliances and utensils needed. Plenty of glass wear and mugs. We did have to do dishes a bit more often than normal because there was a limited number of plates, but this was fine we just washed our dishes right away.
It was wonderful having laundry (washer/dryer) in the condo so we could easily wash our clothes and towels throughout our visit.
The condo was very quiet. We only ever noticed minor noise from other condos, during normal hours and usually when someone was outside on their lanai. I don't know if the walls in the condo building were well insulated or perhaps the complex in general is quiet, but we were never disturbed by other guests.
While we spent most of our time out and about visiting different beaches and parts of Kauai it was great to have a very large TV that we could easily connect to our YouTube/Amazon Prime accounts so we could watch our favorite shows on the couple rainy days we had during our visit.
The only downside which is completely uncontrollable by the condo owners/property management/property is that it was rainy (our fault for choosing the rainy time of the year) so we did have a few cockroaches (the flying kind) come into the condo. I am not talking about an infestation, we saw maybe 3-4 the entire time we were staying at the condo. It is expected that during the rainy season the bugs will end up getting pushed indoors. On the flip side, I did really appreciate/loved seeing the geckos, we more than welcomed them since they eat bugs.
