Kauai Kahuna Vacation Rentals

"We stayed at the Wailua Bay condo complex in a unit on the 3rd floor. The condo was exactly as pictured, extremely comfortable and had everything we needed for the trip. The bed and linens were especially nice, as well as the comfy couch in the living area. We never turned on the TV while there so can't comment on that, but he wifi did work well. The direct view of the ocean off the balcony was the highlight. One morning we woke to find a monk seal sleeping on the beach right in front of us, it was amazing. Communication from the company was top-notch every step of the way. We loved the keyless check in and drop box to get our parking permit, meant no waiting at all. They also communicated before, during and after our stay keeping us up to date on check in/check out procedures, tips for packing and things to do, and occasionally checking in to make sure everything was ok during the stay. The location was an easy walk to several restaurants/coffee shops/shopping as well as two beach access points (one literally next to the building and one about 1/2 a block away). The Coconut shopping center (with a food market/restaurants) is about a 15/20 minute easy walk. You can also access the bike/walk path that runs along the coast north to Kapa'a. We had a car for exploring but found ourselves walking to most things the days we stayed here; unless you are venturing to distant points on the island you could easily be car-free at this location and have everything you need close by for a relaxing island getaway. We used the onsite pool a couple of times and it was spotlessly clean, and never busy while we were there. Having a washer/dryer in the unit was a great convenience as well. There was AC in the unit but we never needed it - very pleasant to open the louver windows and the balcony door and let the breeze cool everything down. My only regret is we didn't stay longer. We did half our trip on the east side at this condo, and half on Hanalei Bay. This accommodation was by far the nicer one and we would return again without a thought."

"The accommodations were ample, the condo was perfect and the beds were the best we've experienced. But what made our stay truly memorable was the view and location. The sound of the surf, the sea breeze and the access to the beach were incredible. We are definitely planning to return for some more time on Kauai. Mahalo"

"We had an excellent experience with Kauai Kahuna. Our stay was at the Paniolo property, 210a to be exact. The property was really perfect for our family, very well outfitted, and comfortable. The kitchen was perfect, really well stocked with appliances and cookware we needed. Pretty much all of my interaction with Kauai Kahuna was through Evan, who was an outstanding communicator, very kind, informative and efficient. He represents this company very well, and I did want to acknowledge it in the review. We stay on Kauai from time to time, and I would gladly return to Kauai Kahuna based on this experience"

"Sand piper village is a very tired property. The pictures they show on their photos that room looks like inside. The kitchen was SO VERY TIRED. Paint peeling off counters, all the knives so dull you couldn’t cut hot butter with them, lamps that appears to be not working for a long time, little tiny TV, the sliding glass door VERY difficult to open and close, really difficult! The pool is a whole different story. I did notify the rental management co. that the water level lines were greasy and very dirty. Also, the pool is a very noisy place most of the time as we experienced. It seems there are locals who live there and are not very friendly to us tourist who come in the pool. Very unhappy with our time here. Whoever the owner of this condo was had put 0 dollars in it for a very, very, very very long time. The management company I feel knows all this and yet they have no power over owners to fix anything. So please, pay a couple hundred $ a week and go somewhere else."

"Do not rent from this company. We had planned to stay here for a few days in September 2021 for our 25th wedding anniversary. Due to the state experiencing the highest Covid cases since the start of the pandemic, the governor urged tourists to cancel their non-essential trips. Following the governor's urging, we sadly had to cancel our trip about a week before we were supposed to leave. EVERY SINGLE Air B& B, car rental company, airline, restaurant and excursion company either fully refunded us or gave us credit for a future visit EXCEPT for Kauai Kahuna. They would not work with us and even had the audacity to charge us a cleaning fee after our scheduled dates, even though we never were there. After several phone calls and complaining, they eventually reimbursed us for our cleaning fee, but never offered to give us credit for the unused room. They were dishonest, rude and terrible to deal with. We lost $600 to this company. I would give them zero stars if I could. Stay away from this rental company at all costs. They do not care about anyone except for themselves."
