Kauai vacation at Makahuena

Property met our needs and AC a great amenity! Condo was comfortable but could use an update in decor to make it more pleasant for a vacation stay. Could use a better more thorough cleaning between guests. Location on the island is great.

Perfect Location

Our stay was lovely. The location was so close to PoiPu and the point next door offered a stunning area to watch whales and the sunrise/sunsets. The unit was great for our party of four adults and four kids. The AC worked well. The unit was fairly well stocked. The WiFi was good for some work. Could use some TLC for some cosmetic updates, but even then I would highly recommend this location. Communication with the property managers was smooth, prompt and efficient.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a clean, rustic condo, with a view of the ocean. Separate bedrooms for everyone. Nice pool and hot tub. The hosts were attentive and welcoming. Walking distance to town and an oceanfront park for snorkeling, turtle watching, shops and restaurants. I would stay here again.

Amazing first stay in a beautiful condo!

The condo was very nice and included all amenities my family needed for our stay. It was centrally located around all our activities, and easy to get to. We especially loved enjoying our coffee on the ocean view balcony, while watching the sunrise! We would happily stay here again! Mahola, for a wonderful visit!

Great stay in Kauai

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: We are a family of 5 and stayed 3 nights. The rental was excellent for our visit. There was more than enough room and lots of extras from beach gear to the outdoor grill that we used. Not many rentals have AC on the island so that was a big plus as well!!

Great first time to Kauai

We were two families of 4 and had a great time here! The place comfortably fit all of us, we could cook most of our meals here, and the location was amazing; so close to the beach and great walking. The pool access was great too, and they provided beach/pool towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, and a cooler, which we used nearly every day. The property manager was easy to contact and responsive, and made our trip smooth; they left a great welcome basket with extra keys, instructions, and local guides. We would definitely come back here!

Wonderful first time visit

This property was very nice and was exactly what we were expecting. There was plenty of space and the amenities were also good. While we were there the island had some pretty severe wind and it did make the screens rattle (and come off in one case). We did have to vacuum and clean the floors more than I would have expected for our check in but it was not a huge issue for us.

4.5 star! Had everything we needed but could have been more comfortable with small kids.

We (3 adults, 4 kids age 3-8) stayed for 7 daysPros: Really effective AC and fans, kitchen with the basics, comfy beds, a ton of towels, beach toys, etc. Property manager was responsive. The exterior was well maintained had wonderful views for the sunset Check out procedure was so simple that I felt like I was missing something.Without small kids, I wouldn't have had any major issues, but as a parent I would've liked to know the following:The condo was a long way from the parking lot, down a ramp and up two flights of stairs. Getting 4 kids to/from the car with groceries and stuff was a huge hassle. There weren't very many kid friendly (unbreakable) dishes, and not enough bowls in general). Most of the tables seemed to require coasters, and the sinks were too tall for most of the kids to use without help. Pocket doors with slats for bathrooms made privacy difficult. Minor cons: knives were dull, one of the bedroom TVs was missing its cable remote and streaming services didn't seem to work on it, the numbers on the stove were faded beyond legibility, and the range hood buttons seemed barely to work. None of these were particularly inconvenient, but still. No on site recycling besides redeemable cans and bottles and corrugated cardboard. Maybe that's common here? We had to load the rest of the recycling into our car and drive it down the road. Overall a comfortable place!

We only spent one night there in between rentals, due to one of your vrbo's cancelling. I wish we could have enjoyed the property longer :(

Place was too hot during our stay. They should include in the ads that the place needs ac during that time of the year. Fans were provided but not enough. Unable to open the front door due to poor instruction. Took us 45 mins to get inside.

Family vacation

This condo is in a convenient location… up the hill from Poipu Beach ( you can walk there) where turtles come in to sleep at night, lots of reef fish to see snorkeling. Heritage Trail is a block away and was great for our morning sunrise walks. Close to various shopping places for food and supplies. It is Poipu so there are a lot of folks here. Pool was great for kids. There are a few funky things in the condo… dishwasher floods the counter if you don’t run the garbage disposal prior to, range hood does a light show on occasion and the fan does not always come on ( you have to mess around with it). All things we got used to. We enjoyed staying here.
