The location is great! We thought the pictures didn't do the view justice. You can walk to several beaches from here. It is an older property, so there is some wear and tear and doesn't have the amenities newer resort properties. Also, fyi that the upstairs bedroom can be a bit hot to start the night out but it was perfect for our family. We appreciated the welcome package with coffee and that it had beach chairs, towels and sand toys available for use. Loved it and would definitely consider staying again.

I rate it a 6.5 out of 10. Great things- provided nice beach towels, beach chairs, mats, water shoes, provided cooler. Appreciated the ziplock sandwich and storage bags. Bad: mold on shower curtains and showers, downstairs bathroom had mildew smells, washer had mildew so we had to buy cleaner, carpet upstairs had black stains, kitchen stovetop lights and fan were glitching - flashing on and off, stovetop dials did not have temperature info as it was worn out - making it hard to know what was high or low, sink turned on on its own constantly, no dish rags provided, windows/patio doors need to be cleaned, remote for the fans in bedrooms were not working and hard to understand, tv in first bedroom did not appear to work, living room tv remote was missing battery cover, lanai patio doors do not lock/ fully close. POSITIVES:* All of the many things included for supplies in all rooms, beach supplies, laundry supplies, kitchen, bedding, etc* Location was awesome! Seeing ocean from Lanai. * Having 1 guaranteed spot to park was nice* Keyless lock/entry was a perk* Pool & hot tub area was clean & welcoming. No issues* Walking distance to both sunrise AND a sunset - awesome!* The condo was spacious & comfortableOTHER:* Obvious mold in showers* Bad mold/mildew smell in laundry washing machine* Lights & ceiling fans in each room do not work regularly or consistently. They all turned off or on without us doing anything. So we had no choice but to leave them off.

This was perfect for our party of 8. Two bedrooms, one had a king bed and the other had a queen, and a loft with a full bed and a day bed with a trundle. Note: this condo is on a second story with no elevator. The 2 bedrooms are up another flight of stairs, and the loft is up a 3rd set of stairs; so you get your exercise. There are two full bathrooms and a half bath with a washer and dryer. The fully stocked kitchen is nice to prepare food and relax in the living/ dining area.They even have beach towels (8) and beach chairs (I think 7 or 8) and sand toys and some snorkel sets (but only 1 pair of flippers). There was only one boogie board and it was about to fall apart.The condo is next to the ocean, but has lava rock and is too dangerous to swim. It's a few minute drive to Poipu beach where you can swim and snorkel, and if you go in the evenings you can usually see sea turtles!This is on the south side of Kauai, so if you want to do things on the north side you have to drive about an hour or more, depending on where you're going. We had a very fun stay and would highly recommend this unit. Thank you!

Just got back from a week at the Makahuena 1-303. Pros:* Good location, 15min walk to Poipu Beach. It's an uphill walk back. We just drove everyday. Restaurants, stores, within 10 min drive* Property grounds are we taken care ofCons: * The unit is much older than what's in the pictures. Different furniture, etc.* Completely broken beach umbrella. Shannon told me to go get one from Costco rather trying to help. I had to spend 1 1/2 hours to go back to Walmart by the airport to buy one. No reimbursement. * One of the toilets was leaking and kept running 24-7* Kitchen faucet is leaking and gets all over the counter. It also turns on by itself as it's loose.* The dryer kept shutting off after 15 min with a "Check Dryer Vent" light. Annoying when you have wet clothes. * WiFi router upstairs kept failing (red light)* After my brief conversation about the umbrella, I didn't even bother to report the other issues as I did not want to spend my vacation time waiting for service and repairs, we just dealt with it. Would I stay here again? Yes if I was better informed and needed accommodations for 5 people. No if it was just my wife and daughter.Recommendation for management: * Accurately represent your property* Help rather then provide answers with no resolution, where's the Aloha spirit? Hope this honest review helps someone out! Cheers!

This place was fantastic! 3 levels, 2 3/4 bathroom. Easy access to anywhere near the south side of the island. Very clean. Internet worked well. Easy access to Shipwreck Beach for the best sunrise on the island.Reminder***bring your own shopping bags for groceries otherwise you’ll have to buy them at the grocery store.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The first night we got there were issues with the AC in one room and I guess a random termite swarm. The owner sent the cleaners the next morning and the AC guy to fix it. There was mold in the shower and giant layer of dust in the fan. We are glad they were able to address these issues. The rest of the stay went great. The condo is just like it looks in the pictures and the view from the balcony is great. (Side note: there isn't an elevator which I think is pretty common here but we didn't realize this and it was hard to carry our bags up and down but wasn't a issue other than the first and last day)

This condo was great for our family plus grandma. Having two bedrooms plus the loft gave us space to spread out and the large dining table was good for meals and playing games. We used the cooler every day on our car trips around the island.

All our dreams came true

This apartment was fantastic- met all our needs and then some for our Kauai vacation. As soon as you open the door you can hear the ocean crashing and we spent several sunrises and sunsets visiting the waves just a few steps away.The apartment itself had everything we needed. It was comfortable, well appointed, and blissfully air conditioned. We were so pleased with everything about our stay. Just as advertised!

Kauai vacation at Makahuena

Property met our needs and AC a great amenity! Condo was comfortable but could use an update in decor to make it more pleasant for a vacation stay. Could use a better more thorough cleaning between guests. Location on the island is great.
