"Amazing place to stay , the views at night are UNREAL. Loved it!"

"Great location and convenient beach access. One of the best places you can stay for a beach vacation"
-Geet S. - (Sep 2026 - AirBnB)

"Really nice small appartment in a very nice area, with restaurants and shops nearby.
Well located, in front of the beach and with a nice pool. I would really come back to it!
Kathy was also great with comms.
Keep in mind it does not have a kitchen. This was not a problem for us but talking with other neighbours they were disappointed with their appartments.
I really enjoyed the stay here, especially beacause of the nice area it is located in."

"Awesome spot for 3 days! We needed more time on the island!"

"Kathy was a great communicator and all the instructions for check in/out were very clear. We felt very supported by her, making sure we were settled and comfortable.
The condo is in fabulously located, right by the beach, a great walking/biking path that goes for 7 miles and within an easy walk to shops and restaurants. Lovely pool and tiki bar.
The condo itself is very comfortable and well equipped for a small space. Really appreciated beach chairs, cooler and all the kitchen necessities. Bed is super comfortable ( really important for me) and the place was lovely and clean. The condo is a bit outdated, but who cares about that, you're not there to hang out in your room. Fabulous lani with a beach view to the ocean to have your morning coffee.
The grounds are well maintained with lots of beautiful flowers/plants and lots of Kauai wild life ( Roosters, hens and chicks!).
We would definitely stay there again."

"We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Kaua'i! The place was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. One of the best parts was how incredibly close it was to the ocean, waking up to the sound of the waves was amazing. The location made it so easy to enjoy the beach and explore the island. We would definitely stay here again!"

"We are so happy that we got to book our stay at Kathy's Airbnb. We are mid-budget travelers, so we wanted to stay at a place that is beautiful, accessible, close to the beach, and at the same time, affordable. We found Kathy's listing that checked off all our list! We are truly grateful for it, and for Kathy and Geraldine to be responsive and communicative with everything. They were so kind and patient with our questions regarding check-ins and unpredictable Kauai's weather. 10/10 love this stay!!"

"The host was very responsive and friendly. Our A/C didn't work for two days (wasn't bad without it tho as it is winter) but Kathy was quick to get a hold of maintenance. The problem turned out to be a bad A/C remote control. The condo is in a great location - within less than a minute walk to the beach, a few minutes walk to restaurants, stores, walkable paths."
-Jason M. - (Feb 2026 - Airbnb)

"Kathy is a great host, communicated very well and provided all the details prior to our visit. The place was amazing and in one of the best spots next to the beach. Highly recommend!!"

"We stayed for a 9-day trip and found the room perfectly suited our needs. It was nicely located with easy access to the whole island. The room was as described / pictured with a beach view. Would recommend."
-Leslie P. - (Feb 2026 - AirBnB)
*****
"We had a great stay at the condo. We really enjoyed the view and the short walk to the beach. We appreciated the table and chairs on the patio so that we could watch the sunrise in the morning and relax outside any time during the day. Kind of a unique spot in the complex ... views of the ocean, but tucked away for a little more privacy. The bed was comfy and the unit had everything we needed."

"Great deal. Will rent again. Perfect spot and I didn't even need a rental car. Prime location."
