About this apartment rental
Our ocean front condo has been recently remodeled with all new furniture, kitchen appliances & countertops, Smart TV, window coverings and a new comfy king size bed. From inside our unit and from our lanai, we have a wonderful view of the ocean and the beach area, and beautiful Wailua Bay.
Lai Nani is considered the gem of Kauai’s East side or “the coconut coast”. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with tropical flowers, palms trees and spacious lawns. There is gated private parking, on-site laundry, adjacent to a swimmable beach, a large heated swimming pool, and walking distance to excellent restaurants and farmer's market twice a week. There is a protected ocean pool, (Keiki Pool) for children adjacent to the property. Lae Nani is located 10 minutes north of the Lihue airport, midway between Poipu and Hanalei, so its centrally located for exploring both sides of the Island. There is a bar height table outside on the lanai to enjoy your tropical cocktails andmeals while enjoying the soothing ocean waves. We provide boogie boards, beach towels, and ice chest for the use of our guests.
We have recently added bedroom air-conditioning.

The property was well maintained and equipped for our stay. We really appreciated the outreach from the owners before our stay. The furniture was comfortable and felt like home. The Lae Nani location can't be beat for access to services, especially with the Lava Lava Beach Club right next door.

Property as described with quite atmosphere. Centrally located on the island with anything you need nearby. Great ocean view from a nice sized lanai with nice furniture. Air-conditioned bedroom with a firm king mattress. The kitchen was well appointed and had more than we needed. The property grounds were well cared for and the hosts and onsite office staff were friendly and helpful. We would stay there again.

Well when we arrived the condo has a bad smell and the bathroom especially was not very clean the shower was not clean and the sink had black rim around the plug and both bathroom sinks needed to be cleaned. The microwave was not working. The beach chair we a joke one was broke and I he other one can’t be called a chair. We did let the owner know and he offered to have it cleaned but I do not want someone to come in and bother us.they did fix the microwave. Didn’t complain about the chairs to him. We had a wonderful time and we enjoyed the condo. Just needs to cleaned a little better. And chairs need to be updated. Yes we would stay there again.

My husband and I traveled to Kauai to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The most important things we were looking for in lodging were the view and AIR CONDITIONING to sleep. Upon arrival, the portable AC in the master bedroom was not working. In trying to save the owner trouble, my husband did some troubleshooting, looked up the manual online etc. It did not improve.
So after trying to solve ourselves, we contacted to owner.
The first thing he said was, "the last renters said there seemed to be an issue with the AC." After this second complaint from us...instead of getting us a working AC as soon as possible, he went down the warranty path. By the time he realized he couldn't get a new one through that route and got a new one to us, we were on our last night. We did not sleep well for 8/9 nights of our 30th anniversary trip. It was 85 degrees outside.
I understand wanting to check into warranty process. Yet, really- with the amount we spent on this lodging, the AC should have been fixed or replaced within 24 hours and he could work on refunds and warranties for unit later.
The shower is tiled, and since no AC , it had some mildew and there was no way to truly dry that room out.
Also note, we thought there was a washer/dryer inside unit- there is not- there is a shared laundry room on the property.
We tried to settle this directly with the owner but he would not even offer a slight discount or a partial refund

Location! Location! Location! Love the view from the high- top table on the lanai. This unit is nicely furnished, and the complex is centrally located close to restaurants, farmer's markets, shopping and beaches. Very comfortable. We have stayed in this unit before and hope to return again!

Condo was wonderful. The kitchen had everthing we could want. The view and the grounds are spectacular. It is a good location and I would stay here again. We did not use the air conditioner. The ceiling fans and the window vents worked great.

My wife and I stayed at 423 Lae Nani for one week in January of 2024 and it did not disappoint in the least! Beautiful views, pool and ocean adjacent, and with shopping and food only a short walk away! Perfect for your garden island getaway! We left feeling refreshed and ready to face real life again in the cold winter of Central Oregon! Being Near Kapaa is a great location for visitin Kauai as well, you are fairly equidistant from the north shore and the south shore with access to Waimea canyon. We kept thinking we would visit other beaches to swim but why bother when you are in such a lovely locale to begin with. We loved having a full home and kitchen so we could cook some great home cooked meals with fresh fish from the Fish market in Koloa and having breakfast on the lanai each day looking out at the ocean was just wonderful. It cost a little extra but it was worth it!

The condo was clean and comfortable (in addition to being well stocked in kitchen ware and basic condiments). The location can't be beat, the beach and pool were both very nice. Lots of shopping (Coconut Maketplace) and restaurants close by.
10.0 / 10.0
The property was manicured daily. The pool is large and the location couldn't be better. Walk to a half-dozen restaurants, instant ocean-access, plenty of secure parking and the condo was well-equipped.

This place... We saw it right away when we began our search. It looked fantastic, but how often is the first place you see the right one? We kept search; and kept coming back to Lae Nani 423 and finally realized it was the best of the bunch in terms of quality and overall value. But, would it actually be as good as it appears on VRBO?
Yes, perhaps even better! The photos and description are accurate; beautiful, comfortable and well-stocked interior and a wonderful lanai from which to gaze at the ocean, eat a relaxing meal, or just enjoy the beautiful grounds. We walked two minutes to the beach to watch the sunrise each morning. The Lava Lava Club is just minutes away on foot; great for breakfast, happy hour or dinner.
We wanted a place to serve as a base of operations to see most of the enchanted island and also a quiet sanctuary to just relax and enjoy some down time. This beautiful condo was perfect on both counts.
Howard was clear, thorough and timely with his pre-check-in communication and the check out instructions were easy to follow. We hope to be back; perhaps next time for two weeks.

Stunning views from this very comfortable condo in a very clean and well-equipped resort. With the pool, the beach out front, close proximity to the Coconut Marketplace, the bakery and restaurants within walking distance, you really don't need to "go" much of anywhere. However, the central island location of this place makes it a perfect starting point for excursions to other points on the island. The kitchen is well equipped, A/C in the bedroom is nice if you need it, furnishings are contemporary and comfortable. Lastly, in my humble opinion, if you do have any questions or issues during your stay it is much more pleasant to deal directly with a private owner rather than a property management company.

Everything as described. Clean, well equipped condo on gorgeous property. We used the a/c unit in the bedroom sparingly but it is necessary. Gladly stay at this condo again.

Lots to do and see. Delicious food, shave ice, shopping, Keeki pool, and beach access are all 5 min or less walk. Condo is centrally location on the east side of the all. Poipu is only a 30 min drive. Princeville/Ha'ena State Park )north side) and Waimea Canyon/Polihale State Parks (Southwest) are all within an hour drive.
One of the best views on the island is from the condo's lanai. The condo is beautiful decorated and well stocked with needed amenities. Pool was much larger than we expected.
I highly recommend this property.

My bare feet were black on the bottom from walking on the floors to unpack. We went out and bought some cheap flip flops for indoor use only, and that solved the problem.
The air conditioner in the bedroom was nice for the really hot nights!

Centrally located in the east shore, this was a great place to stay to easily explore all areas of the island.
Nicely appointed and clean with a great view of the ocean. Loved the decor!
The air conditioning in the bedroom was much needed. We did did get warm in the afternoons, but that’s to be expected on an island. Keeping the windows open with the fans going kept the air moving nicely. We would turn the air on in the bedroom about 30 minutes before sleeping and it was plenty cool enough by the time we went to bed.
Great communication with Howard and we had all the information to make checking in easy. Would definitely recommend staying here!!

Bed and bedroom air conditioner made for comfortable sleeping. View from kitchen, dining area, living room and lanai was gorgeous. Kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals. Location was 10 minutes from airport and an easy drive to Poipu and North Shore beaches. We would stay here again.

Second time returning to this property and hope to return again. The condo is clean and well stocked. The beach and property are absolutely beautiful and make it hard for us to leave. Lots of great restaurants in the area but the lanai is the best dinner spot ♥️

We spent 6 glorious days at Lae Nani 423 and it was our home away from home!
The space was beautiful and beautifully decorated. It was spotless, the bed was very comfortable, the furniture was comfortable and the space itself was huge!
We were pleasantly surprised that it is a 1.5 bathroom unit, so this made getting dressed in the morning a lot quicker.
The kitchen was well stocked and had everything you needed to cook a meal.
The view from the linai was SPECTACULAR! We enjoyed our time sitting and reading when we were not going on an adventure.
The location is PERFECT! You are right in the middle of the east coast, so enjoying the north or south was a breeze!
The airport is 20 minutes away max, so you don't need a lot of time to get there when leaving this tropical paradise.
We had a wonderful visit!
Thank you for opening your home to us!

Beautifully decorated and clean condo, with everything needed for our week-long stay in Kauai! The location was perfect to explore the island in both directions. The owners go the extra mile in providing beach towels, beach chairs, and other items for hanging out at the beach and pool, which is something I wish more vacation rentals would provide. The addition of the AC in the bedroom definitely helped with sleeping in the tropical environment. The view and grounds are wonderful, and we enjoyed having our coffee out on the lanai most mornings. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone coming to Kauai!

Book this condo-you will not be disappointed! The location was perfect-right in middle of the north and south of the island. The grounds are so beautiful, manicured is the best word to describe them.
The view from the patio, kitchen and living area is so peaceful.
Howard and Patti were easy to get ahold of for a quick location, can't wait to go back. No need to search for anything better, as this was perfect for the two of us!!

This is truly an amazing spot! In Wailua with access to as close to a private beach as it gets. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails on the lanai was our favorite past time! Kitchen is perfectly outfitted to cook whatever you may desire, and the decor, amenities, and hosts make this the perfect island getaway!

We felt like we were at a resort. The grounds were beautiful and v well maintained and the ocean was steps away. It was also fabulous in terms of location and being able to shop and dine within walking distance. Howard was a v responsive and accommodating host. We would certainly go back. It also had a family vibe.
Highly recommended

We are so grateful to have enjoyed this VRBO with lovely views, well appointed decor , and comfort, If you're headed to Kapa'a/Wailua on Kauai do not miss staying in this unit.

The condo was beautifully decorated and very well equipped including coffee to start with! The views from the balcony are even better than the photos.
10.0 / 10.0
The location worked well for us, close to the airport, so after a long travel day and fiasco line at car rental, not having to go too far was nice. Also, Kapa'a being centrally located, makes it easy to get up north, down south, or all the way around to Waimea and that side of things, as well. The place suited us very well and Howie and Patti's restaurant suggestions they have in their house were pretty spot on, as well. We'd definitely stay at their place again.

Hope to stay again!

This condo was incredible. From the views, locations to amenities, it was everything we could’ve asked for. The AC unit was enough for the bedroom and kept us cool. Howard and Patty have a wonderful place to spent your vacation. Location was perfect for a drive to the north and south shores with a reasonable time. We would highly recommend booking here!

Lae Nani's #423 the our beach house for the week, comfy and cozy. We felt so much at home and didn't want to leave just yet. Hearing the sounds of the waves rolling in calms your soul, the view and grounds were spectacular! So many plants and flowers, every turned corner around the property warmed your heart. Our view from the Lanai, was perfect and so was the patio furniture. We especially enjoyed using the beach chairs and bogie boards. Everyone was so incredibly nice and helpful, we will definitely be back to visit Kauai and Lae Nani again. We still have more to do from the 101 things to do on Kauai.
Thank you so much!

First timers, excellent location, wonderful property. A must!!!!
This was my first time to Hawaii. This property is in an excellent location. Of you want to explore other areas of the island you ate centrally located. If you prefer to stay in the property the grounds are wonderful. Beach access is steps away, shopping and restaurants are a short walk.
The property itself was very nicely equipped and updated.
If it could sleep a family of 6 I would come back in a heart beat. That said, I will be considering renting multiple units at this location for our family, it's that perfect.
