About this apartment rental

Direct Beachfront and Oceanfront- your unit is 50 yards from the ocean and beach!

Aloha and Welcome,

The Pono Kai Resort is located in a perfect spot for island visitors!! Located halfway along the coast between the resort towns of Poipu and Koloa Town on the South shore and Hanalei and Princeville on the North shore, making it a great starting point to explore the entire island. The property sits on 12 beachfront acres and offers plenty of amenities and entertainment options such as lighted tennis courts, basketball goals, a croquet lawn, shuffleboard courts, putting green, workout room, and refreshing pool with hot tub. The resort provides equipment that can be checked out as well.

This complex is literally within a 3 minute walk of downtown Kapaa, which provides numerous shops, restaurants, and bars for easy access and convenience

This unit features a private lanai with a stunning oceanfront setting, fully-equipped kitchen, free WiFi, cable TV, ceiling fans, one bedroom, 1 full bath with tub shower combination and more.

Also, this unit does not have air conditioning. While some visitors prefer AC, we have never found it necessary because of the East Trade Winds and the fact that we have pedestal fans and ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom. If you are someone who feels that they need AC, then we would suggest you look at other units. Opening the slider in the front and the bedroom windows will generally create plenty of breeze and makes the unit very comfortable.

RENTAL CARS

We highly recommend that that you secure your rental car reservation PRIOR to booking this unit. Failure to be able to secure a rental car DOES NOT qualify as an exception to our standard cancellation policy.

First time staying in Kapa’a as we usually stay in Princeville. Great location for us for a few days, as it was easy access to Lihue & south parts of the island. Beautiful ocean view from the deck/living room. Bright & airy with the windows open. Well equipped & nice amenities.

Pona Kai Resort is a great place to vacation.Beautiful grounds.Close to the beach and all amenities. C204 has a fantastic ocean view with the beach 50 yards away. The condo was nice and comfortable. Could use a little updating. Be nice to have a lounge chair on the lanai and a newer coffee maker.The herd of elephants that was above us tended to be little annoying at times. But that's the risks you take if your not on the top floor. All in all a great stay. Would highly recommend. Thanks Huma.

This a great oceanfront condo and our 2nd time staying here (so that should tell you something!). Breeze through condo generally kept it cool with ceiling fans. Portable fans did the trick when there was no breeze. Kitchen was well supplied and ice maker in fridge was very well used. Some people complain about condos being dated, but unless you're paying a lot more, 90% of these condos will be dated. Large lanai was great as were the binoculars to help see the whales and some spinner dolphins. Only thing I would recommend Huma to buy is a lounger. Beach chairs and cooler in closet were great for us but she also had snorkel gear and some sand toys as well. Absolutely loved this condo. If this condo is in your price range I would grab it.

The property is not 5 star, but the location and view is. Ocean front, nice lanai, workable floor plan, good bed, easy access. No air conditioning, but not really needed when the windows and sliding door are open. Enjoy Kauai! Property is as advertised, and we will likely return.

The condo was pleasant looking and comfortable. It was clean! Things were in good condition EXCEPT the sliding glass door and screen to the balcony. It was pretty bad! The screen was SHOT and the handle on the door just about off. We used it CAREFULLY! Otherwise, I would certainly return and recommend it to others!

Great view of the ocean. Clean for the most part (shower could use a good cleaning) the kitchen was nice but everything else was fairly run down and there was a strong musty odor. The bed was too soft (and it was quite warm in the bedroom) so we ended up sleeping on the pull out couch (which was actually fairly comfortable) The unit was quiet and the complex was nice. Some nice restaurants close by.

There was a notice posted at the building that from May 8th to May 31st the elevator would not be in service. Our check in was May 18th to May 23rd. The Owner (Huma) or the Manager did not notify us of no elevator service to our 2nd floor apartment. We are Seniors and booked it primarily for the convenience of an elevator. On arrival we had our luggage and groceries with us at the building in a cart provided by the resort, but discovered NO elevator. It would have been courteous of the Owner or the Manager to notify us in advance, since they had to know it was not in service during our stay. The Owner at first declared he did not know the elevator was broken, then texted he thought it would be fixed by the time we arrived. We booked over a month prior to our check in date. I was disappointed in the Owner being less than honest with us. The apartment was in a wonderful location with a great ocean breeze and comfortable even though there was no air conditioning in the unit. The only real negative about the apartment itself was my husband felt the mattress was too soft and woke up with backaches. No fault of the unit, the apartment above was very noisy with scrapping of furniture on apparently bare floors. Despite these minor difficulties we had a wonderful 5 night stay and enjoyed the location and wonderful view.

This property is well taken care of, despite the salty ocean breezes trying to attack anything that is metal. All bldgs have an elevator but ours broke down about 3 days after we arrived and they are still working on it as we left. Thankfully we are only on the 2nd floor so not an issue. Our unit was furnished well and was more than adequate for our needs including wifi and cable. The kitchen had everything one would need. You don't miss not having a/c with the constant ocean breeze and the ceiling fans. The bathtub and sink drains run slowly but we will be mentioning that at checkout to management. All in all...a lovely experience that we would repeat!! Mahalo, Huma, for allowing us to share your lovely place!!

Ideal location on the island. Close to everything you could need. Waking up to the view was amazing, but be prepared to have everyone on the bike path get a view of you as well. The walls are semi thin, I think I just got unlucky with neighbors that had loud voices. Unit was clean and had necessities stocked.

Very central location making it easy to visit North and South of beautiful Kawai. The on-site playgrounds are fun and all equipment is available at the pool area (tennis racquets, putter, etc.). Beach chairs and cooler are available in the studio which is very useful. Right in front is a very nice beach good for swimming and there is natural shade from the trees near the beach. Bike and walk path in front of the ocean is great! Restaurants and markets are situated nearby. The sunrise is amazing and makes nice pictures.

We loved the awesome ocean view we had from our balcony. Everything was provided that you could possibly need. No need for A/C, as there was always a breeze to keep the unit cool. The resort also has many games and equipment that you can use free of charge. Walking distance to so many places.

The location was great, but unfortunately the people staying above us we extemely noisy which was annoying. They had small children who spend a great deal of time running around and moving furniture. The resort was beautiful and conveniently located. The bedroom got a little warm at night and the vent in the bathroom needed a good cleaning. Everyone else was very clean though. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your piece of paradise. Overall it was pretty great. Make

Host and property manager were great; very responsive to questions, issues. Appreciated enough supplies available for length of our stay(a month) instead of just enough for few days. Amazing views of ocean right from our condo included sunrises, watching fishing boats go out, kite surfers, seabirds diving for fish, seal swimming along our shoreline, whales(with use of binoculars). Used kitchen quite a bit and found it to be well-stocked. Did not rent a car and did just fine w/o one. Used Speedi shuttle between airport and condo, walked entire path in front of condo, used bus($1 each for seniors). Using bus to go to Hanalei especially good choice as very crowded and difficult to find parking there. Tours that pick and drop off at Pono Kai available. 5 minute walk to farmers market on Wednesday for fruits and veggies… Only issue was carpet next to sliding door has gotten damp so often that bothered my allergies but I’m sure new owner will be taking care of issues like this. (I used box fan to blow across carpet from inside to outside which helped).

Everything was better than we hoped for. Great location, great view, great condo! Air flow through condo was great. Only needed a fan in our bedroom twice and that was during the day. Lots of extras: beach chairs, umbrella and cooler than we used. Snorkeling supplies and kids toys as well. Kitchen had everything needed, including bonus Kauai coffee! Fridge was huge and the ice maker in it was great! The binoculars were a nice touch, so watching the whales and surfers was even better. For those that needed it, the TV was good with a lot of channels. Wi-fi worked very well. My only worry is that it will be booked up before we can get our flight plans are done for next year! Thank you Huma!

This condo is perfectly located. Loved being right next to the ocean, close to the laundry facilities, close to the grills, close to the pool, walking distance to a little town shopping and food strip. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed during our stay. There were nice beach chairs and a cooler for us to use. The beds were comfortable. check in was super easy and the staff was super friendly. The complex has activities for the kids like ping pong, connect 4 and jenga and more. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us!

Fantastic location. Pono Kai a great spot to visit Kapaa and easy to go north to explore Northshore and South to shop Lihue and beaches on south shore like Poipu. Condo has all the amenities you need for a family of 4. Kitchenware was fully stocked and the Lion's coffee was a nice touch in arrival. There was a slight hiccup with key and code access but was resolved promptly. Pull out sofa could get some attention. Will look forward to the next stay! Thank you for having us!
