The views from this condo are breathtaking with the primary room having a bed that faces the bay. We could not have been more pleased with the room's cleanliness, views, and the resort amenities. Each condo had 2 boogie boards, coolers, beach chairs and snorkel gear. It made enjoying the beaches hassle free and we were so thankful to have them included with the condo and didn't have to rent them from the hotel or in town. The beach access is about .25 mile down from the top of the path, it'll get your heart rate up coming back up - but is worth it. The resort shares a private beach with Hotel 1 which has a bar on the beach called 'the Sandbox' for cocktails and lunch. A few items to note - this second floor condo is close to the front parking lot/lobby, which is great for carrying beach bags and groceries - but you do get noise from Happy Talks until they close and a bit after for cleaning up. They close at 9 - so it is not really an issue, but could be for those with sound sensitivities. The restaurants (Wiki Pizza and Happy Talks) do manage to get some crowds on the weekends especially and the valets will double park cars in the parking lot to accommodate the overflow of guests. Don't panic! The valets are incredibly nice and will move any cars quickly so that you can get in/out as needed. The pictures accurately show the kitchen, it's not top tier, but gets the job done and discourages cooking...which is great for vacations :)

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view, the location, the service. Having two connected rooms side by side is absolutely amazing for families with kids. Keep their mess separate from yours :) . Kitchen is not big but enough to cook meals and the fridge is big enough for a family of 4. THE VIEW. Did I mention the view? Resort staff are available 24/7 by text and very responsive. Having two restaurants and a gift store (coffee shop / beverages) is invaluable. I had to be dragged out of the room to leave :). Yes the furniture is not modern but who cares when you have that view & service! Walk or take a golf cart to the beach. North side of Kauai is just something else. True tropical paradise. MAHALO.
