OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was fantastic. We really enjoyed the resort. They have 5 pools, 2 hot tubs, and a water slide. We appreciated they had a volleyball net in the pool. Perfect spot for vacation. Beach is short walk away from the resort. Definitely recommend and would come back."

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI

"Very pretty"

2BD/2BA Oceanfront Condo with Beach Access

"Great property right on the ocean. Easy walking distance to beaches. A close drive to the airport, Lihue and Kapa’a."

BEST Ocean View in the Resort...Stunning & Panoramic! Completely Renovated 2BR

10/10 Excellent

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kaha Lani Resort. Condo was fully equipped with all of your vacation needs. It was very clean and comfortable.The location was ideal with well manicured grounds and access the park that ran the length of the resort. The view was beautiful. Fell asleep with the sound of the waves and cool breeze blowing through the bedroom."

Kauai Beach Villas F-7 A/C & Oceanfront Lanai

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed in a number of Vrbo’s and this was one of the cleanest units we’ve seen. The condo is well appointed, we most appreciated the cooler that we were able to use on day trips to reduce the cost of eating out. The A/C in the bedrooms worked great at night to help everyone sleep. The walk to the beach is so close and we got the pool to ourselves for the entire week! The maintenance staff was always very kind and greeted us every time we were at the pool. Overall, a great experience for our first time in Kauai."

Kauai Beach Villas, Walk to beach, FREE PARKING

10/10 Excellent

"This stay was amazing. Location is perfect between North and South coast. We had a very comfortable stay and highly recommend."

Beachfront on Kauai's Beautiful Coconut Coast!

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This ground floor unit had two bedrooms (1king, 2 twin beds, a large living/dining area, kitchen, and 2 full bathrooms. This setup worked great for our family of four. There was no A/C but the tradewinds and fans kept the temperature comfortable. It was in a quiet area close to highways, Lihu’e, Kapa’a, etc. The location of the condo within the complex was great. There is an amazing ocean view from the main living area and one bedroom. The unit was close to laundry and parking. There were enough supplies and towels. It was useful to have a closet full of beach gear/toys/cooler. The pool was warm and suprisingly deep at one end which my kids loved. The walking trail that goes along the coastline was accessible from the grounds (which by the way are well maintained and beautiful). We were able to use the trail to walk to Lydgate Park in just a few minutes. The location of the condo was central and convenient for getting to other areas of Kauai. The unit shows its age but it was clean, comfortable, and more than adequate for our needs. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again."

Kaha Lani #216, 2Bdrm, 2bath, kitchen, beachfront resort! Ocean views. Quiet!

"We brought our own snorkeling gear, but really appreciated the boogie boards, cooler, and beach chairs in the closet. Hard to fit those in carry-on luggage!Everything great and as shown, except the downstairs king bed can no longer be split into 2 twins as shown in the video.thanks!"
