About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Romantic Getaway, on the East side. Perfect location, with access to everything!

OCEAN FRONT, one bedroom unit which has been redecorated top to bottom. We chose the total traditional island style with rattan and bamboo...from the furniture to the bamboo drapes, which give the whole place a warm, fresh feeling. We used sand style tile to hide the "beach" sand and dirt. :-)
The new granite counter is called solaris and is a beautiful, sunny gold and browns. This kitchen has been renovated with all new stainless appliances. It is a beautiful gourmet kitchen, where you can prepare a wonderful meal with the view and sound of the ocean as your backdrop. The entire unit has been painted top to bottom...it is also fresh and clean feeling. The old bathtub was removed and replaced with a wonderful rain-shower head and beautiful tile with glossy highlights. The colors simulate the ocean and it is just a great new bathroom - top to bottom. We have put quiet rock throughout on the ceilings and some common walls such as the bathroom and bedroom. We also built a wains-coating wall in the bedroom to also mitigated the sound from the adjoining unit! The curtains in the bedroom are good for total black-out and sound from the path outside. We hope you enjoy all of the upgrades we have incorporated into this ocean-side unit.

The Pono Kai Resort enjoys a fantastic location along the eastern coastline of Kauai, known as the coconut coast, because of the large palm trees that line the coast. From this central location on the island, visitors can easily explore Princeville to the north, Poipu to the south, and other hikes and trails on the island in a timely fashion.

Visitors staying at the Pono Kai Resort will enjoy an assortment of onsite activities such as the onsite pool and hot tub, lighted tennis courts and croquet lawn, shuffleboard, putting green, work-out room, BBQ facilities, and activity desk for booking on-island adventures. Our favorite amenity is easy to access the beachfront paved walking/bike trail that fronts the property and coastline. Explore the scenic trail for miles in each direction.
To enjoy the beautiful sounds and feel the ocean breezes. THIS CONDO DOES HAVE CENTRAL AC. There is a portable unit for the small bedroom, and large ceiling fans and ocean breezes.

We provide everything you need for a day at the beach or hiking, plus we provide new bicycles. You can watch the sun come up from the Lanai...which is a breathtaking experience on the beautiful garden island of Kauai!

We welcome your stay with us! Aloha!

The room was clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable. It is highly desirable that this unit comes with air conditioning, which is very much needed in Hawaii. The view is impeccable. The location is central to all of Kauai. Getting to any part of the island doesn’t seem very far away. My only complaint is that the television station options are not easy to maneuver and I don’t know if it was available, but I could not get any local TV stations (Honolulu). Otherwise I would highly recommend this rental.

This unit was fantastic in all categories! The ocean view was phenomenal. The unit was beautiful inside with all the amenities one would need. The A/C worked perfectly, also. We could not have possibly asked for a better unit, it was absolutely perfect. If and when we return to Kauai we will definitely rent this unit again. If you are reading this and considering this unit, GO FOR IT! You will NOT be disappointed.

First time ever visiting Hawaii. I can’t imagine a better location and condo to serve as our home base while we explored the many wonders of the Garden Island. Lena was quick to respond to our frequent communications from the start of our reservation until the day we checked out. I would rebook in this location with her without question when we return to Kauai! Mahalo to Lena and Ivan!!

This was a wonderful stay. The place was beautiful and felt very homey. The view is spectacular. We could have just sat on the patio for hours. We did all the tourity things and had fun instead. The location is good except you can't make a left turn out of the property and the traffic is quite heavy so it was a little hastle getting out.We enjoyed it so much we want to bring our grown kids next year.

Oceanfront getaway

My husband and I recently stayed is here. The place is great and has everything you need. Beach towels, small ice chest and chairs were in the closet. There were also starters of necessities. It is in the Pono Kai resort. We were on the ground floor. Walk right out on the patio (with lounge chair and 4 chairs with table) on to the grass leading to the beach. Easy access to the 6.5 mile or so bike path that we walked each day. There were 2 bikes available in the condo if you like to ride. There were lots of restaurants within walking distance of our condo as well. It was located right in the heart of Kapa’a. We could walk to grocery and shops as well. This place really had it all. The owner was quick to respond when we had a question. We would stay here again in a second!

Home for a week

We had a wonderful stay in Kapaa. Our plans were taking us all over the island and we really were centrally located to get everywhere quickly. The apartment was located in a nice resort with a lot of amenities and easy access to a beachside walking path. Inside it had everything you would need to cook with a fully stocked kitchen, beach with chairs, umbrella and cooler or relax. Our only other wish would be a TV in the bedroom as we like to watch movies before bed. The living room did have a nice TV and a furniture for lounging and dining. We had everything we needed to go out and explore and come “home” and relax. A perfect vacation spot.

Perfect Week! Thank you, Lena and Ivan!

We had a perfect week in Kauai! The condo's central location allowed us to access all sides of the island with incredible ease. When we weren't hiking the trails or relaxing on the beach, we were enjoying the beautiful view and refreshing breeze from the patio of Lena and Ivan's condo or riding bikes on the path along the coast. The condo was immaculate, tastefully decorated, and comfortable with everything we needed -- ice in the ice maker for the cooler in the closet, beach chairs, snorkel gear, shampoo/conditioner, and so much more. The AC worked great at night; we didn't need it during the day. The bed, pillows, linens, and blackout curtains contributed to our wonderful sleep at night. Some of our favorite things to do in Kauai: hiking the first few miles of the Kalalau Trail to the beach and waterfalls (AMAZING -- will do the whole thing one day!), the Sleeping Giant (close to Pono Kai -- be sure to go beyond the picnic table for a panoramic view of the island), and the Awaawapuhi (DIFFICULT but so worth doing to see the breathtaking Napali Coast). Some of our favorite food stops: Hukilau Lanai (wonderful dinner), Gaylords Plantation (excellent lunch), and JoJo's Shave Ice (the Tropical Dream is so good!!). We also got to experience the food trucks and neat vendors at the First Saturday Art Walk, which was super fun. Finally, we saw at least 15 sea turtles at Po'ipu and an adorable seal at Shipwreck Beach. Thank you, Lena and Ivan for being such gracious hosts!

Overall great stay

Location was fantastic, beachfront with access to a great trail to walk or bike. Centrally located on the island if that’s what you want, and we did. Easy to get to north, south, airport, etc. Quiet, well-maintained complex with good amenities (we only used pool, nothing else). Our door code didn’t work but local manager was easily reachable and helped immediately. Owner didn’t answer a text on an unrelated question until next day so good that there is a local contact. Great shower, kitchen, supplies, etc. The unit and complex grounds were all clean and nice. Only minor suggestions for improvement:Bikes were a nice perk but need some maintenance- rusty chains and gears. Only two beach towels for Kauai where it’s reasonable to expect people will go to beach or pool daily and things take forever to dry. More beach towels!!Bedroom TV with multiple remotes, no instructions, none of them seem to work. One didn’t even have batteries. A DVD player with a single movie and no remote seems silly. Living room furniture is pretty uncomfortable for evening TV sessions.

This was indeed a remarkable treasure on The Garden Isle. It was a perfect stay and I appreciated having such a wonderful option RIGHT ON THE BEACH!

Two weeks at Pono Kai

Everything was great except the construction quality of the units. Sound proofing from the floor above you is bad. Tenants above can be heard walking, sliding chairs and furniture, using bathroom, etc. At times it sounded like a remodel was happening above us. In the future I would only stay in a top floor unit. Adjoining renters expressed the same concerns.

We have rented this unit several times. It’s right on the ocean and the bike path so there’s always something to watch. Everything you need is provided and everything is in good condition. We also love funky downtown Kapaa. Mermaids has the best food in town and you can’t go wrong at Pono market for authentic Hawaiian cuisine. Go early as they sell out quickly.

Lena provides so many extras like Kleenex, shampoo and conditioner, soap, ziplocks, laundry soap in addition to beach chairs, cooler snorkel gear and anything else you might need for a beach day. She responded immediately whenever we had any questions. Perfect unit except for the noisy neighbors upstairs on our last night. Stomping around until 2 am. Should have gone upstairs and knocked on their door but just tried to sleep through it.
