  We had a great stay and loved the location of this particular unit. The rental company was very helpful and always quick to respond to questions or emails, which we greatly appreciated. Everything was in great condition, and we were also happy to see that this unit actually had some spices in the cabinet and some sand toys for the kids. We have stayed at Waipouli before when none of these conveniences were available. My only suggestion for D402 is that the dishes and silverware seem to be getting down in count and supply may need to be replenished. Also, with all of the children that come through Waipouli, perhaps it would be nice to provide some more plastic cups or dishes. Just a suggestion. Thanks for the nice stay!

  As this was our first trip to Kauai, we weren't sure where to stay. We picked Kapa'a for its central location and then found D402 at Waipouli Beach Resort. Staying in Kapa'a was a good choice - it is a reasonable distance/time to any activity and Kapa'a has great amenities. We stayed 10 nights at this resort. The condo was very nice. It was quiet, had a great view, and had everything we needed. With the trade winds, we only used the air con briefly for one afternoon. It is great having the two bathrooms. Being poolside with the ocean view is definitely nicer than being on the road side, although there can be a fair bit of daytime/evening noise from the pool - but it is 'happy noise'! The sofa bed needs to be replaced - mattress is pretty bad and couch cushions are showing age, but management is now aware of this and were very helpful in bringing in an extra foam mattress cover on our first day, which helped for sure. We plan to return to Kauai and would definitely stay in this unit again.

  We were so impressed with the Waipouli Beach Resort. It is centrally located on the island in the town of Kapa'a which offers great restaurants, natural food stores, farmers markets etc.
  
  The Waipouli resort is right on the beach, has a fun pool area with water slides, multiple hot tubs, bbqs, a fantastic restaurant called the Oasis, with an excellent server named Henry. And the best Mai Tai in the world--it is all made from scratch, no syrups, canned juices, fake ingredients etc. You can't go wrong here!!
  
  The kitchen inside the condo is gorgeous and the whole place was first class comfort. The only small gripe I have is the shower head was the wrong type for the shower stall. It was too wide of a spray and sort of spitty causing the water to go everywhere except on your body. This is a simple fix of changing the shower head and does not effect our overall very positive experience. We took baths instead of showers in the huge jacuzzi tub and it was divine. We could have called management about the shower head and I have no doubt they would have fixed it right away, but we were too busy exploring and having a great time to be bothered with this.
  
  We stayed in one of the private condos at Waipouli and still had access to all the spa, conceriege, pool, restaurant, beach, parking etc services that the resort offers.
  
  Josh, the manager who booked our private condo at the Waipouli was very nice, professional, informative and got us a great deal! A private condo is the way to go because you have a full kitchen, bath, laundry in the condo and still have access to resort amenities. We will be back and will stay at the Waipouli Beach Resort!

  Truly the BEST vacation I've ever had. Sooo relaxing and the condo is gorgeous. Everything you need right at your fingertips. Magnificent pool and ocean views (loved the pool at night, lit with tiki torches!). Company staff were wonderfully helpful. Telling all our friends. We can't wait to come back.

  Robin S recommends this vacation rental

  We were blorwn away by the layout, design and amenities offered in this 1 bd/2 ba unit -- a luxlurious, yet comfortable vakay experience.The layout, appliances, and amenities found in this kitchen were so fabulous, our local chef friend cooked us a gourmet dinner for our 25th anniversary in this kitchen! The bedroom was very comfortable with extra nice bedding & towels in the bath areas. The huge double sink and vanity area was perfect with lots of storage drawers and a large garden tub in the corner. The shower and second bath area are adjacent to the master bath with a door to close the two off. Nice concept. A balcony off the bedroom could have been a bit bigger, but we enjoyed having drinks and enjoying the morning sunrises there. The furnishings were very tastefully done, laid out nicely, and super comfortable. We had plenty of space in the entryway for golf clubs.. We only had 4 nights in this unit, as we agreed to move halfway thru our stay to another unit in Bldg. G. The Penthouse we moved to didn't compare in quality to this lovely unit (see review for G301). The Management Co. smoothly handled everything for us. This unit directly overlooks the meandering pool area and the ocean view beyond! Our days here were relaxing & peaceful. But I wouldn't say that this property would appeal to the 55+ group, as there were mostly young famlies with babies, tweens, and teens who got a bit loud at times. But we certainly enjoyed this unit to the fullest! The keyless entries take a bit of getting used to, especially getting in and out of the pool area. We needed nothing more in this lovely lunit!

  Upon reserving this property Josh was great at taking care of our needs. Condo is beautiful! The main downfall is no service at the pool. You also can't bring in pool coolers to the pool. The Bar-B-que's need some work but were nice to have by the pool. Upon checking in though we were told just to go to our room. We didn't know where our room was.? Kapaa was a nice central location for seeing all the Island.

  Everything went perfect from the booking to our arrival. From the moment we walked into the Waipouli Beach Resort we were impressed. Once we opened the door to our condo D402 we were knocked out at how beautiful it was. The view of the pool and ocean was like a dream. It was immaculately clean, with comfortable high end furnishings. The location was perfect especially the shopping center directly across the street. We can't wait to return and rent this same condo again.

  Condo was beautiful as well as the resort. All the amentities you would need. Only complaint is a brighter light is needed for the shower and also if the shower head is adjusted in a normal position it leaks a ton through the bottom of the door onto the floor. You must point it towards the wall for this not to happen. Otherwise condo was perfect.

  The property is great.lots of play area for kids.the only bad part is that it's the rainy side so I would stay here summer only and in winter time stay in poipu which was drier and warmer.the condos are beautifull.safeway is right across from the property. people are very nice.

  • Manager Responded on 12/13/2011

    East Kauai is not the rainy side. North Kauai is rainy and east Kauai is generally very sunny. This group was unlucky as this storm had it raining in Poipu also. I hope they try Kauai again!

  a guest from bush, la recommends this vacation rental

  The resort was terrific, our only complaint was the "no coolers in pool area" rule. This would be fine if they had a poolside bar to serve drinks and snacks but they don't. There is a poolside restaurant but it doesn't open till 4. The location is great because it's a short drive to anywhere on the island. You can drive either north or south within about 45 mins. The only thing about being on the east side is that it didn't seem to be as sunny as the rest of the island, it was cloudy almost every day. This could be because of the time of year we came, early October, or we just had bad luck for the week. Poipu on the south shore was sunny every day we went. But overall it was a terrific stay on a beautiful tropical island. Would definitely recommend staying here.

  This was our second visit to Kauai and the location was perfect to visiting other parts of the island, the perfect halfway point. The kitchen was well apppointed, decorations were nice, sofa and bed were comfortable. Nice balcony view of the pool and the ocean. We can't wait to come back with the kids because the pool was great, beach was ok for minimal swimming. Josh was so helpful and allowed us a few hours extra while we waited for our late departure which was greatly appreciated.

  We looked at many places to stay. We have a 17mo old and wanted a place where he would also have fun in a safe environment. There are many nice condos on the island, but this one seemed to be one of the few that had a kid friendly, fenced in pool/waterslide/lazy pool with koi fish feeding, a grassy area to run in, etc. The beach is accessible but it is not as sandy as we would have liked and the waves are too rough for babies. That being said, there are plenty of places to drive to in the north and south that have nice beaches. This place seemed to be the only location that was on a beach and was very accessible to 3 groceries (Foodland, Safeway, Big Save) and food (subway, pizza hut, taco bell, chinese restaurant, indian restaurant, and 2-3 italian restaurants) just across the street!. Also it was centrally located, easy access to the north and south parts of the island. The inside furnishings were nice and clean. The floor plan was good and although only 1 bedroom, there were 2 toilets which was useful. If you are looking for a secluded area for a romantic getaway (away from kids), then this place may not be the best. However, It is a great place for a family with kids.

  This unit has the most magnificent view you could want on this property... a full-on ocean view to see both sunrises and moonrises... and a long total view of the wonderful winding swimming pool. Sitting on the balcony mornings reading a good book with the ocean breeze and some fresh Kauai coffee - couldn't ask for a better experience.

  I could see the ocean from our lanai and could see almost the whole pool area and enjoyed it day and night (nicely lit at night)
  
  Condo is beautiful - nicely equipped so you don't have to spend all your time looking for places to eat! Safeway across the road is just fine and a quick walk if you just need a couple of things.
  
  My daughter loved the pool (5 years old) and could spend hours upon hours there.
  
  You need to rent a car for this island - there are many places to explore! We would hit a beach, drive back and finish the day in the pool. Or, take the trip to Waimea canyon and unwind before supper in the pool. Very clean and well-maintained. The unit we stayed in is managed by Kauai Exclusive Management and the rep Josh helped us out with any questions or concerns promptly.
  
  Last night we were there we went to the Oasis bar and restaurant on the property and watched the whales frolicking without binoculars. Truly a treat. Pretty much anywhere we went, if we waited a couple of minutes, we could see whales hanging out.
  
  Go to:
  
  Kilauea lighthouse, Hanalei town and bay, secret beach, Lydgate park if you have kiddies (or want to practice snorkeling), Waimea canyon, go to the walmart in Lihue to buy cheap beach toys and lifejackets, Smith family Luau - very close and really beautiful grounds and a nice show.
  
  We will be back - we may stay in a larger condo next time - D402 is 1 bedroom with a sofa bed in the living room, but will definitely go through Kauai Exclusive Management - they take care of 20 or so units - they took very good care of us!
  
  After being on Oahu for a couple of days, Kauai was a lovely quiet place - very laid back!
  
  We wanted to go to:
  Polihale beach, but got there and the road in was under a lot of water so we didn't want to risk getting our rental car in trouble! It's a long way to go, so if you can, try to find out the condition of the road from somewhere - it had r

  We had an amazing stay at the Waipouli Beach Resort and Spa in Kapaa! The Resort was beautful and the view from our Penthouse was amazing every night. The pool was so much fun with all the waterfalls and slides! The suite had a huge well equipped kitchen with all the bells and whistles and proved to be a dream to cook in. The bathrooms were fantastic and the master bath was like having your own jacuzzi in house. Having a washer/dryer in the suite was also a bonus! The TV's were awesome and having a DVD made things great for when we wanted to rent movies - and we are bolth huge movie watchers. The Resort and the grounds were always clean and always well kept. The staff were always friendly and helpful. We loved the pool girls the best - Ish and Sheila (I hope I got the names right)! The location of the Resort is just perfect... with SuperValu, Starbucks, Blockbusters, etc... across the road it made it easy the pick up groceries, etc... We will definately be back and I will highly recommend this 5 star resort to my friends and family! Many thanks to Josh (the Property Manager) for setting us up in this gem of a Property. I have to say it was the best Christmas & New Years Holiday we have ever had! Mahalo!

  We LOVED this place and had such a great experience. The Paniola cocktail made at the restaurant right off the pool and hot tubs was great. We drank MANY of them while we were there. There is a great gluten free bakery next store that has yummy fresh muffins and baked goods in the morning. I can't eat gluten so it was a special treat. The accomodations are amazing with great appliances and classy furnishing. We've had bad experiences with "hawaiian condo decor" before the is dirty and old. This place was spotless and easy to keep clean even without maid service. A lot of places don't have air conditioning or hot tubs in hawaii and this place had both. My husband doesn't get much time off so when we go on vacation we like to stay nice places. I can't say enough nice things about the unit we stayed in, I'd recommend (and have) to anyone I know. We'd LOVE to go back!
