Love this place. Very clean, location was great. Owner was great to work with. They checked in on us mid week. The grounds of the resort and the pool were very well manicured and maintained.

Our hosts have created a home away from home. We had everything we needed (except an in-unit washer & dryer). Steven & Stephanie quickly communicated each and every time we had a question. That’s a real bonus.
Thank you!

This was an ideal place to stay for our first visit to Kauai. Its central location allowed us to easily explore all parts of the island. The balcony view allows for lots of people and rooster/chicken watching as well as sunrise every morning. The hosts provided everything we needed and were very good at communicating. Would absolutely recommend this property!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this condo and would definitely visit again.
The location is fantastic. Having visited Kapaa during our honeymoon in the past, we like this location as a central hub for visiting Kauai, although on this trip our only major adventures were back to the airport for a helicopter tour and to Port Allen for a Na Pali coastline cruise. We were able to watch the sunrise each morning from the lanai, we walked and ran along the bike path, and enjoyed the beach in front of our unit most days.
The unit was air-conditioned, very clean and comfortable, and had all of the kitchen and bath amenities we needed. Since it was our family of 4, we used the pull out sofa in the living room and it was sufficient for our needs.
We did not require any direct communication with the owners during our stay. The check in/out process was super easy though, since there is a front desk exactly like at a hotel that handles all of those steps.

This was a great place to stay with the best view ever. It was stocked with all we needed to feel at home. Clean as can be. The air conditioner worked fantastic. Very close to walking to many places and short driving distances to all of east side. No disappointment at all. Stephanie knows how to treat her visitors with style. Thanks so much Christy

Our family of 3 stayed in the wonderful D308 unit at the Pono Kai resort! It was fantastic stay! The unit was so beautifully decorated and the kitchen was stunning! The unit came well equipped with kitchen/cooking supplies, beach gear, clean towels ect. We especially enjoyed using the snorkel gear! The view from the unit is outstanding and you can catch sunrises here. The lanai is a wonderful place to relax or enjoy meals with an ocean view. With the sliding door open, you can hear the ocean waves throughout the unit. The location in Kapaa was great. It was in walking distance to shops/restaurants, nice beaches, and the Ke Ala Hele Makalae Path. We loved going on walks and a bike ride on this path! The hosts, Stephanie and Steven, were very responsive and even reached out to check in during our stay to ensure everything was satisfactory. I would recommend this unit for your stay! Thank you Stephanie and Stephen for an awesome stay in your unit! We appreciate your hospitality.

Such a great location. We were lulled to sleep by the sound of the ocean. We needed to recharge our batteries and this was the place to do it. Loved every minute here.

Our stay could not have been more perfect.
The accommodations are outstanding. Add to that the oceanfront, walking path and convenience to both the north and south part of
the island.

Stayed here before, just keeps getting better. Steven’s & Stephanie’s customer service is a big part of what keeps us coming back. Oh, and the sunrise-over-the-ocean view. Mahalo

My husband and I, both seniors, were very pleased with this 3rd floor corner unit. Sitting on our balcony was like watching a nature channel on TV, watching the walkers, cyclists, runners, and dogs being walked, all against the background of ocean waves crashing on the shore. And don’t forget the roosters.
The condo itself was ideal for us. It had everything we needed, yet was uncluttered. It made us feel at home as opposed to feeling we were in somebody else’s home. Very short walk into town, and convenient to the bus system.. We did just fine without a rental car.

Property was as advertised on the VRBO site. Great sunrises on the lanai's oceanfront. Bike/walking path goes in both directions and for plenty of distance. Good location for going north towards the beaches, Princeville and bone as well as going south for the canyon and southern beaches. There is access to grills in the complex and the pool is accessible. Good access to two grocery stores and a couple of fine restaurants.

We just spent three weeks in the best 1BR unit, in the best condo complex, located in the best area, of the best island in the state of Hawaii. We are a retired couple who have enjoyed many visits to the islands over the past 30 plus years. After our first trip which included stays in Oahu, Hawaii, and Kauai, we have always returned to Kauai. We’ve stayed in different locations, but now only consider This complex on the east shore in Kapa’a.
We have stayed in this unit many times previously, but are impressed with the results of the recent renovation that upgraded the unit. As a third floor, corner, oceanfront unit we had the most peaceful stay, broken only by the trade winds. This spacious unit has all of the latest appliances and is steps from the beach and the oceanside paved walking/biking trail that runs for several miles along the east coast. With groceries, restaurants, shops and a post office in easy walking distance there’s no need to get in your car, other than to see the rest of this beautiful island.
Our host, Stephanie, responded quickly to any questions or concerns.

Amazing home with everything a family needs on a vacation! The linen were in par with some of best hotels I stayed. The view from the lanai (deck) was the best. We enjoyed the sunrises everyday sitting at the deck. Will stay here if we go back to Kauai once again.

D308 is an amazing place. I love how Stephanie and Steven decorated this unit. Simple but with elegance…..absolutely love the minimalist decor. The oceanfront view is to die for….life could not get any better.
Loved that Stephanie and Steven checked in on me to see how my stay was coming along.
I would definitely stay in D308 again. Highly recommend this place. If you are looking to stay at D308…. you won’t be disappointed.

What we enjoyed most about this property: - The host was extremely responsive and kind.
- The location was great; shops and restaurants within walking distance, right in middle of the east side of the island, so it was easy to get to other parts of island.
- The condo was updated.
Things we did not enjoy as much:
- While the place has been recently renovated, we did experience some issues: the shower floor is very uneven so water pools in different areas, making it feel as though you’re showering in a foot pool. Additionally, ants were an issue throughout the condo, (we took the trash out regularly and did not keep food out or even open in the fridge) and because the front door has gaps, we awoke to a lizard on our bedroom wall one early morning.
- The location was fantastic, but the beach right out front seemed to be a common homeless hangout spot. We did not spend any time at the beach out front because of the amount of people living/staying there.
- There is currently a ton of road construction by the condo, which made commuting frustrating and made getting a ride to the airport almost impossible.
Overall, my partner and I had a pretty good experience. The check in process was smooth and easy, the host was responsive, and the place was easily accessible as we explored the island. We do not know if we would stay again in the future at this exact property, but we also do not regret staying there by any means.

The view and ocean sounds are incredible. Restaurants and stores are in walking distance. The place is clean, comfortable and stocked. The beach is amazing right outside your door. The dawn is exquisite, changing moment by moment from the lanai. We had the time of our lives!

The perfect spot!
Loved our stay at Stephanie's condo! It was immaculant and in the perfect location. We loved the walking/bike path right out front. There is great shopping and restaurants within walking distance. Don't miss the fish sandwich, fish and chips, or the chicken sandwich at Fish Bar Deli, wings at Johnny's Wingz 'n Tingz or the fish tacos at Sleeping Giant Grill!

Birthday Getaway
The condo is in a great location for seeing the entire island. There are also plenty of grocery stores and restaurants nearby. We loved the thoughtfulness of the owners to provide a small ice chest. It was wonderful to be able to have cold water in the car after hiking. The sound of the surge and the feel of the ocean breeze were wonderful. We would definitely stay there again.

It was quite hot and humid and I was surprised to not have an air-conditioner. Thankfully, with the windows open and fans on, it was comfortable! Great location near the beach and shops. Thank you!

Perfect location for our time on Kaua’i
We loved our time at this property. The location was convenient for exploring the island and the thoughtfulness with which this condo is maintained made us feel like we were staying with friends. Stephanie was helpful with our questions and always quick to respond. Her communication before we arrived and while we were there helped our time to be easy and enjoyable!

Quiet friendly condo
The condo was as advertised, top floor end unit facing the sea. It rained on and off during our stay in March and the sea was too rough to swim. There’s a small pool In the complex. Also good restaurants and shopping within walking distance. An extensive bike and walking trail is right in front. It was breezy but warm with no mosquitoes.

nice place!
We stayed 3 weeks. We loved the sunrises, the lanai, the bike trail, the beach, the pool, the grills, the kitchen.
We loved the place. That's the main message here.
What's not to love? These are quibbles.
The condo has one of two big property lights on the building, placed right over this unit's lanai. It comes on at dark and is unnecessarily glaring, and on still nights it attracts bugs. I wonder if the owners could work with the managers to move that light a little bit. Maybe not. It isn't all that bad, trust me.
The blinds in the bedroom are vertical, and they blow in the wind, and make noise, and sometimes, because they blow sideways, aren't entirely private. I wonder if horizontal blinds might be better.
Using the television requires the patience of Job and, it seemed to me, a little luck. Lots of buttons to push, two remotes. I'm not terribly young, I know, but a "how to" manual might be nice. I did call the owner and he was great about walking me through it. When I lost the magic touch about a week in I was too embarrassed to call again, but we were watching Netflix, which we had figured out, so it was all good. If the tv is your biggest problem on Kauai, you have bigger problems.
Loved it. Thanks!

Great unit, wonderful location
Corner unit, third floor, building has elevator. Quiet neighborhood. Faces east, were able to see the sunrise each day. Between the unit and the beach is a walking path that is parallel to the water, and it is only about 100 feet to the beach. Parking was close, and had sufficient spaces. Ideal location on Kauai to visit beaches on both the north and east sides as well as the south and southwest. Convenient location for airport, grocery shopping, and restaurants. Great internet speed, and many TV channels as well. Communication with owners was excellent. We are seniors and it was a very relaxing stay for us.

We enjoyed our stay here. We loved the ocean view and being centrally located on the island in Kapaa. We also loved being within walking distance to so many restaurants, shops and the walk along the ocean. We'd love to come back.
