Place was nice and the guys enjoyed their stay here. I rented this for a remodel we were doing on the island.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great week! The condo had everything we needed to be comfortable. It was clean, and well laid out. Everything was in good working order and all instructions and communication were extremely clear. Great location: walking distance to restaurants, shops, and the beach. So much fun to watch the barges and cruise ship coming and going from the balcony. Centrally located for driving activities as well. Loved it!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay for 7 days. We loved being able to sit on the lanai and watch the ships and harbor activity. The condo had everything we could possibility need including quite a few pantry staples and condiments. Very traditional Hawaiian style home, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
5.0 / 5.0
This was a great facility, certainly met our needs as a launching off point for activities all over the island. Very close to the airport, Costco, and target. And a nice beach just down the street.
4.0 / 5.0
Unit was very clean and well stocked with anything needed to cook a meal. There are NO grab bars in the shower and very low toilets but linens are very clean and good quality. Location is good very high up walking is all uphill or downhill lots of stairs if you take lots of luggage no elevator
4.0 / 5.0
This condo is very conveniently located to the airport and the Royal Sonesta Resort where my husband was attending a conference. Overall positive report, but it is true that the local contact was hard to reach. Also, there was loud music and a few fireworks(?) one night till 3 a.m., presumably from the cruise ship in port. Instructions for the Wifi had been changed, but had not been updated in the instructions, so that took us a while to figure out. Overall, we were pleased with our stay.
5.0 / 5.0
This rental was more than adequate for our recent visit to Kauai. The living and dining room furniture is new and refrigerator & dishwasher are also new. The air conditioners are due for replacement but the fans in the bedrooms and open windows helped at night instead of listening to a noisy unit.
The pool/bbq area were nice. BBQ’s were busy, so go early. Pool is salt water and small but nice.
The condo is centrally located on Kauai and there is a really nice park and beach across the road. It was nice to have morning coffee on the lanai and watch the ships come into port.
Karen (owner) was great to work with and very informative and prompt to answer our questions.
We stayed here Jan 21-27,2024.
5.0 / 5.0
Our location was ideal for my conference close by at the Royal Sonesta, about a ten minute brisk walk. There were many places to eat close by, food trucks and sit down restaurants. We had a car, Costco and Safeway were no more than a ten minute drive. The large cruise boats were coming and going most days, which quite a spectacle. The morning sunrise was the highlight
5.0 / 5.0
Very easy to get to from the airport. Nice unit and communication was easy. I would stay here again for sure.

Karen's wonderful place had everything we needed for our trip to the island. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks
5.0 / 5.0
Great décor. Quality, plentiful linens.
Excellent wi-fi.
Lanai is sweet spot for sunrise breakfast.
Nice to have car right below, especially when sun was blazing/ raining out. Luxury not to haul beach chairs and a cooler across a parking lot.
Front desk friendly. Complex has solar, making trip more eco-friendly.
Short walk to the clean pool w/ amazing view of Nawiliwili & mountains.
Easy walk to Kalapakī Beach. Not far from Kapaʻa & Poʻipū for good restaurants. Farmers markets, Costco, Target, etc., not far.
Relief to have no one above. Generally quiet unit, though one day we heard housekeeping yelling next door.
Loud party nearby on last night.
Heard waves at night when the (faint) highway noise fades.
Roughly 18 steps to condo. Would like more lighting if I were woman staying alone.
2nd bedroom not closed off completely (top is open). Good to know if you have light sleepers.
Washing machine smelled like previous guests let it get musty.
Window AC units were between 60 & 70 decibels on lowest setting. Owner explained that trade winds at night make AC unnecessary. There were cool breezes at night, but a loud party nearby on last night made us close windows.
Few dirty/ broken things, but nothing major. To be fair, owner gave us maintenance's info before stay. But instead of complaining, we just cleaned up. Why bother with arranging repair while on vacation?
Would stay at BH again for location alone. Overall, strong value.

Great location and lovely condo!!
5.0 / 5.0
This is a clean, basic condo with everything you need for your stay! Internet worked great, beds good, everything clean. Really nice little view of ocean and mountains to drink coffee to in the morning. Everything good. Lots of food in walking distance. Best of all, I love how it is right across the street from Kalapaki beach. This condo is becoming our go-to spot each year on Kauai!
5.0 / 5.0
The rental was exactly as listed. Clean and well stocked with things to help make a week long stay feel like home. There is a washer and dryer to get suits and towels clean after a day at the beach. There is a beach that is within walking distance, as well as some little shops and restaurants.
The property is clean and you can easily access activities on the north and south shores from Lihue.

Really enjoy our stay.

The property was as described by other reviewers, so the steps going up to the condo were no surprise. At least I got in a lot of steps and flights! 😉 The location is very convenient to so many places and things to do. The beds were fine for all of us. I chatted with Kiki at the office and she was helpful in showing me places to check out. I feel like we all had that once in a lifetime trip to Kauai, and the comfort of the condo helped after being on the run most of the day!
Thanks!!

5.0 / 5.0
Convenient to all sides of island and airport, as well as easy walk to a calm beach and lots of gift shops and restaurants. Can see beach and waterfront from balcony, and sunrise (in January). Rental car is needed and we appreciated the covered carport (don't back in!). The property owner was responsive and clearly cares for the property. It made a great base for our 6 day stay on Kaua'i. Only downside might be noise from roosters, which are beautiful- and are all over the island anyhow! Airplane and ship activity is only sporadic and not intrusive.
5.0 / 5.0
Karen is a great host! She gave me lots of helpful information about the property. She is also very accessible when I called her.for questions. We enjoyed her unit and it has an AC which was helpful when it’s humid. There are three stairs from the parking garage to get to the unit. An elevator would have been nice. It was a little challenging for an older person carrying their luggage but I just did it slowly. The unit is convenient to where you want to go and enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Karen.
5.0 / 5.0
Great location, right across the street from a sandy surf beach. It’s about a half hour from good snorkeling in Poipu in the south and about an hour to Hanalei in the north. Costco and Safeway are a 5 min drive which is handy. Our family liked the pool and we used it quite a bit. Not a fancy place, but it had most things we needed.
4.0 / 5.0
Perfect location to explore the east or south sides of the island. Beach gear was a nice addition though in very used condition. Close to grocery store/ Costco and bbq on site to cook meals after a day at the beach. Mini pantry stocked for convenience too. Glad we stayed!

1st time to Kauai. This is a great location to see the Island.
Easy to get to from the airport, easy to get to shopping and beaches. Swimming pool is nice and the people at Banyon Harbor are very friendly.
This unit was supplied with beach towels, boggie boards, a cooler, beach chairs and other items to enjoy your stay.
Only drawback is all of the stairs which didn’t cause me any issues, but if stairs are a problem, beware.
Overall, a very nice place to spend an Island vacation!🤙🤙⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a great trip to Kauai! The place was conveniently located for all that we wanted to do, outfitted with items for a beach trip, cooler, snorkel gear and boogie boards and comfortable enough to sit and have chats over coffee on the lanai.
5.0 / 5.0
We liked the centralized location of the condo as we toured all parts of the island. The condo was very clean, the on site staff and housekeeper were pleasant and helpful. The condo was as we expected from the listing. Communication with the owner was clear and easy. We enjoyed watching the boats and ship in the harbor and the local boys football team practice in the park.
5.0 / 5.0
The property was older but was neat and tidy. It was perfect for a family with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, living room, etc. It had all the amenities needed. I liked that they had a cooler, boogie boards, snorkel gear you could use. The pool was just a short distance away. You can see the cruise ship dock nearby. The island is small so the rental was between all the different locations to visit.
5.0 / 5.0
Had all amenities you would need. Located near to airport, beaches, restaurants, and shops. Would definitely stay here again.

This little gem is perfect for the island getaway in the middle of activities. Kalapaki beach is perfect for lounging and the adrenaline seeker, surfing and more.

Awesome place to spend the week!
We had a great time here everything was on hand dishes, pans to cook and most of all privacy. Restaurants and the beach are a walk away. We had a lot of fun here i recommend this condo everyone that comes to kauai.

Banyan Harbor - great family place
Condo J118 was clean and well appointed townhouse style condo. Centrally located on the island, it made getting around fairly easy. Got a lot of use from the pool and BBQ area; and my niece was happy Kauai Athletic Club was a short walk away.
P.S. Never talked with property manager only front desk at check in & out.

Great value
The condo and the development were clean and had everything we needed. It was close to the beaches, shopping and the airport. The only negative was that we didn’t realize how many stairs there were from the parking lot to the bedrooms. My husband has a bad knee and struggled with all the stairs.

Banyan Harbor Stay
The unit was cozy, maybe a lil dated as mentioned on the listing.
Karen was responsive and thoughtful.
Close to a bus stop and a lil shopping area with an ABC store and also restaurants.
Plenty of towels, pillows and sheets! And cooking utensils!
-May need to look into investing on newer AC units though, a lil loud and noisy though helps drown-out the outside noise.
-black-out curtains would be great to help with the noise and light
-the pull-out bed/sofa may need to be changed, you can feel the springs and may not be good for your back to sleep on.
Ended up sleeping on the floor instead.
Otherwise we had a nice stay and met our needs.
Thank you Karen!

An ok stay
Pros: The property's location is ok for getting around the island. There is plenty of space for two people. Kitchen is stocked with essentials.
Cons: I wish the owner invests a bit on stuff that would improve guest experience. Most of the towels feel well used and all the big dinner plates are cheap and chipped. Shampoos and conditioners are the leftovers from previous guests and almost empty.
