About this apartment rental
Our Lae Nani unit opens to a captivating view of the beach, ocean, the stunning tropical landscaping and the Wailua Bay. It is a second floor unit. We have completed major remodeling with a new kitchen, new bathrooms, flooring and new furniture including a flat screen smart television and king size bed. Climate change has resulted in some uncomfortably warm weather. In response, we have added bedroom air conditioning. We chose this property over other available ones on the basis of the view, its location, and the grounds. It is on the second floor of Lae Nani's only two story building. It is located midway between Hanalei and Poipu and approximately 10 minutes North of the airport and several miles South of Kapa'a town. The beach is adjacent the property (all Hawaii beaches are public and we are not allowed to call it our beach). This provides good swimming and snorkeling and there is a lava encircled water area that is ideal for young swimmers. Numerous other beaches with more wave action are nearby providing for excellent surfing and boogie boarding.
We are walking distance to many excellent restaurants not to mention a very good bakery/coffee shop. Next door is the Lava Lava Beach club which is an ocean side restaurant and cocktail area with live Hawaian music. We are very close to the newly remodeled Coconut Market Place with several casual restaurants, a shave ice stand and the Country Market that is well stocked with sundries, beach accessories, alcoholic beverages, a delicatessen, coffee, ice cream etc. There many other stores that sell clothing, souvenirs, etc and several shops that rent swim gear and bicycles. In other words, other than for groceries, one would never have to get in their car. We are so lucky to be located on a North South bike/multi use path, that presently extends 7 miles, most of it along the beach.

Stay was amazing. Condo has every amenity you would need or want. Had no problems at all with the condo, communication with the owner or facility manager. Location is perfect. For two women, we felt very safe and comfortable. Really appreciated the room air conditioner. As far as the noisy roosters and chickens….. they out number the people. It’s a way of life for the Islanders.

We felt very relaxed and comfortable during our stay at Lae Nani. The property is impeccably maintained. The flora is gorgeous and it feels like you’re seeing new plants every time you walk the property. Every morning we saw the pool being cleaned. It was crystal clear and no plant droppings. The unit itself has a great view. The bed was comfortable and the AC in the bedroom was great. The lounge chairs and umbrella in the closet are a must when going to the beaches, so make sure to look for those! Some aspects of the kitchen were lackluster and more cleaning should be done on the stovetop. Overall, we’re so lucky and thankful for this to be our first experience on the island! We plan to return to the area!

The unit was beautiful. Private 2nd floor entry ( no elevator). Kitchen and living areas looked out over pool to waimea bay and mountains in distance. Could hear waves crashing and birds singing. The unit is very nicely furnished. Bed super comfy. 2 bathrooms a plus. Well stocked kitchen with nice coffee pot + espresso maker ( WOW!). We could access paved path along beach and walk to great coffee shops, farmers market Tuesdays and Thursdays plus Lava Lava Beach club and Hukilau restaurants nearby.
The only down sides were could have used more towels since no WD in unit and I don't think the unit had been used or cleaned for awhile? Lots of dust on all tables. Super minor complaints. Would absolutely stay in this unit again.

This was our first trip to Kauai and staying here was the perfect choice! Not only could we travel around and get to know the beauty of the island, but coming back (or spending an entire day) "home" was every bit as beautiful to us! "Our beach" was exquisite, the grounds spectacular, the view beyond our expectation. Loved relaxing on the balcony. We cooked (mostly grilled) and enjoyed expressos and cappuccinos. Finally, the beautiful condo itself - the love and care put into every furnishing, fixture and piece of artwork is so evident - a true Hawaiian reflection. Thank you!

Beautiful condo and great views from the Lanai. Can also hear the waves from the Lanai which we really loved. Walking distance to restaurants and Coconut Marketplace. Condo was clean and offered everything we needed for our stay. Grounds were beautiful and very well kept. We would definitely stay again.

For our first trip to Kauai, this was a great condo in a perfect location. Easy access to north and south and some great restaurants and shopping conveniently located nearby. The Lae Nani grounds and pool and beautiful and well maintained. The unit was nicely decorated and comfortable. The air conditioning in the bedroom was a welcome touch as it was quite warm when we were there.
The view from the lanai was stunning and a great place for coffee or a cocktail. We would stay at this unit again.

Spent a week here and loved it! Very well stocked kitchen, awesome view, pool was large and kids loved it, small protected area on beach was also great for little kids, great location, would stay again. Only thing to be aware of was living room was warm in July and couldn't get any windflow through. Little warm for kids sleeping on pullout but fans helped and AC in bedroom was very helpful for that room.

The property is great. There was a lot of noise each night from 3-5am - I guess mating season for cats or other animals

We had a wonderful holiday in this beautiful well-stocked condo. The view is terrific. The grounds are fabulous. It was lovely to sit and have our meals overlooking the pool, the ocean and the gardens. The A/C in the bedroom is great. The owners supplied easy to follow directions on everything. As others have said it's very close to shops, the farmer's market and a number of restaurants. We really enjoyed this condo and our holiday and we can't wait to come back.

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful condo. It was perfectly positioned for us to travel to all different parts of the island and then retreat back to our peaceful home base. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged. We enjoyed the view of the water and the mountains, visiting the beach, and having the ability to walk to the farmer's market, cafes, and restaurants all nearby. We hope to return again someday!

Excellent condo to rent.
Booking process and rental instructions/information made settling into the condo very easy (precise details were given for directions, parking, access codes, etc).
The pictures don't do it justice....the grounds and view of Lae Nani property from the balcony lanai are breath taking.
Condo is conveniently located for easy travel around the island and for walking on paths along the ocean.
Will definitely rent this condo again.
It was a great place to spend Christmas.

Aloha…Our eleven night stay was pure beauty and relaxation. Pristine manicured grounds abounding with tropical flowers and even some fruit! Great location for day trips to north and south shores or just walking along the beach!! Everything awaits you for a fun filled day at the beach. Visitors and owners really friendly. Happy noises from the pool meant they were enjoying themselves.
Hope we can make a return visit for longer next time!

Beautiful Kauai Experience
My husband and I loved our stay in Kauai. The unit was very spacious and we were so grateful for the bedroom a/c which we didn’t have during our stay in Maui the previous week. The view from the lanai was beautiful and we were extremely happy with the location on the island. Lava Lava beach club was directly next door and Passion Bakery just a short walk down the street (two of our favorites). We explored different areas of the island each day and staying on the East side made that very easy (other than dealing with some construction on the main road). Weather was beautiful as well for our stay. Only a couple minor issues with the unit: the microwave was broken (which the owner graciously told us in advance), several light bulbs were out in both bathrooms, and the dishwasher leaked from the bottom of the door. We also squashed several bugs but I guess that’s to be expected.
For those planning activities, we really enjoyed Captain Dave’s sunset dinner sailing along the Na Pali coast, hiking the Heritage Trail and out to Mokolea Point. If you drive up to Waimea Canyon, be sure to check the weather and go on a clear day. Our first attempt it was too foggy but the second try was beautiful. If you rent kayaks to head to Secret Falls, we recommend going on your own during a weekend and avoid all the tour groups. It was nice but rather crowded. Pu’u Poa Beach is shaded, secluded with very calm waters. We also enjoyed JoJos shaved iced, Chicken in a Barrel, Kiawe Roots, and the meals at Kukuiula Market (Da Crack, juice bar, poke bowls, shaved ice). Do not get breakfast at Starbucks at the airport on your way home! I had horrible food poisoning on the 7 hr flight back to the mainland. Overall, it was a great trip!

Highly recommend for two people
We loved everything about this property! We stayed for one week at Lae Nani and enjoyed the condo, the grounds, the convenience of grocery shopping about a mile away, and some fun and yummy restaurants, especially the Lava Lava Beach Club, that are walkable from the condo. We truly hope to return someday soon!
