We would unequivocally recommend this property as a base for touring Kaua'i, or for relaxing days around the pool. The condo unit, though quite small, is nicely laid out and comfortable. The fridge, microwave, toaster, large sink and a good set of dishes and utensils, as well as the outdoor BBQ, enable guests to prepare healthy meals. The lanai (balcony) looks out across the pool to the ocean. We are not "resort people" but this condo complex suited us fine because it was very quiet, even around the pool bar, most of the time. We enjoyed the beautiful flowers, shrubs, trees and bird life on the grounds of the property. Be aware that the complex faces east into the prevailing trade winds, so the sound of the waves is constant and can be very loud. The breeze was quite cool when we were there (early April). For a swimming or snorkeling beach, Lydgate Beach Park is walking distance or a very short drive. The owner was extremely helpful all the way through from booking to departure. Kaua'i is a very expensive island to visit and live on due to its remoteness. This was definitely the best property we could find within our price range and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
