Good Location for Poipu and Koloa
We wished we would have known about the harbor lights and lack of window treatments in the main rooms as it would have influenced our lodging decision in the poipu area. There was a lack of privacy definitely at night time. Otherwise the house had ample space for four adults, nice views, and a good location. The local beach was great for a quick ocean dip.

We liked this house and the location is very convenient. We enjoyed relaxing on the lanai watching the boats and activity in the bay. The house really had everything we needed, included a well stocked ktichen. The property management company was very responsive before and during our stay.

Heavenly!
Our whole experience was amazing from the communication, amenities, location, and views! This was my 5th time to visit Kauai, and it's always a new adventure each time I go with so much to do, beautiful climate - you name it! This was my daughters first time to visit, and this home was perfect for my family of 5. We will be back again for sure!

Family Vacation
We had a great time at a beautiful house with an amazing view. We really loved the athletic club, with a 1 year old, it was a great fit. We worked out there, played volleyball and went to the pool quite a bit. The house is in a great location, we could walk to the Botanical Garden and the Spouting Horn. Overall everything was perfect for our group.

Relax with Family
This home on the ocean is wonderful. With only one home next to us, a golf course behind us and a beach just a 5 minute walk away it is very peaceful. There are many island sites a short drive away, great food nearby, and a well stocked kitchen. This place has it all Our family of 8 enjoyed our 10 days here. Definately recommend staying here.

Amazing location
We had an amazing stay at this home. The location was perfect for our extended family. Close enough to food and amenities but still remote enough to be away from a lot of people. When we entered the home, we all felt it was better than the pics, which never happens! It was also the perfect location for a wedding proposal! The backyard created the perfect backdrop for a memorable moment. Highly recommend!

Perfect in every way!
What an amazing home in an amazing location on an amazing island! The sunrises/sunsets are gorgeous, the home is outfit with everything you need, and the light, open spaciousness of the home reminds you every moment that you are in paradise. We especially liked watching the comings and goings of the working harbor and felt more connected to the island than staying in a big condo complex. Stay here and welcome to the perfect stay

Island Paradise
This house was near perfect. The pictures do not do it justice. It was beautiful, spacious, and clean. There were beautiful views from each of the many windows and it was thoughtfully filled with essentials. We stayed as a group of adults but will definitely bring our families back if we are ever lucky enough to visit again. It is a short walk to a small beach and a very short drive to restaurants, shopping and more beaches.

Amazing property! We loved our time here! The house was amazing, the view was amazing, the location was amazing and the communication and welcome was amazing! The house had a beach feel and served our family perfectly with room for everyone! We spend a lot of time on the deck and the kids in the hammock just listening to the waves crash! The house is also stocked with anything you can think of…beach toys, chairs, snorkel gear, ice packs, and more! Thank you for an amazing stay!!

Little piece of paradise.
We picked this place to stay at since we were getting married and having our honeymoon at the same time. The house was amazing, and when we walked in for the first time they had a bottle of champagne and chocolates with a card congratulating us. We appreciated that so much and were thankful for that gesture. We loved leaving the sliding glass door open in our room at night for the air coming in and the sounds of waves hitting the rocks. The best part of the place to us was the hammock!!! We layed on it all the time and just enjoyed the weather and ocean view from it. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay for the first half of our honeymoon. We will definitely be staying there again when we come back.

We loved our time at this home. It had beautiful Sunrise views and a short walk for sunset views. The home was clean and spacious. Bathrooms are a little small but adequate. The only downside was not having window coverings in the main living area. Would be nice to have the option for privacy from the outside. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful location not far from Spouting Horn and the gardens.
Get ready to unpack and relax. The property was clean and ready on time. The communication from start to finish was fantastic. We enjoyed our morning coffee while watching sea turtles play in the water. The morning we were leaving we had a huge rainbow over the water. Everything was more than what we could have expected. The location to shops, restaurants and beach's was great. Thank you for making our stay wonderful!

Paradise!
Me and my fiancé went for 4 nights 5 days and loved the property! It is definately big enough to bring 2-4 more friends or kids with the amount of space and rooms etc. It felt home-y and we appreciated the plenty of communication from the hosts and even ideas of what do do out there! Like travel agents almost haha. Really nice! Sometimes there would be late night partying at the beach that we could hear but it did not ruin our experience at all

Oceanfront & great location...what's not to love?!
Lovely home with beautiful view in a great location! Easily accommodated 6 people over 3 generations. *Nicely stocked with all the amenities - Kitchen: appliances, utensils, dishes, bakeware, spices; Beach: toys, chairs, umbrellas, coolers, towels, outdoor shower; Bathroom towels, basic sundries, hairdryer, etc. *Location is amazing. Short walk to bay/beach, spouting horn, botanical gardens. Far enough out of town you avoid a lot of people & noise but still just a short drive to great shops & restaurants.*Check in/out is a breeze. Keyless entry. PM is communicative and responds timely. Things to consider/useful to know.*Main A/C works great. BR A/C's do not blow cold (even after we cleaned the filters) which means sleeping with the windows open until replaced. Loft has several fans which helps a lot as it is significantly warmer. *Roosters are many & crow all times of the day. Oceanfront BR has the luxury of the ocean waves to drown out the noise but those in the 2nd BR & loft are subject to incessant crowing which can make sleep a challenge (despite earplugs). *The dock across the bay is a popular fishing spot which often continues well after dark - voices & music carry. Those in the oceanside BR may find this disruptive. *The dock light across the bay is bright and shines right toward the house. Generally not an issue unless you are sleeping in the loft. With no window coverings, it provides a lot of illumination & may be disruptive to some (not for us).

Surpassed Expectations
The house was perfect for our family size. The property management company (Koloa Kai Vacation Rentals) was excellent. We arrived later in the evening and they had the lights on for us. They were highly responsive to our needs. Linda and Nani were available via text or telephone call. I was really impressed. We have been to the island several times in the past and I really liked this location. We were roughly 150 foot walk to a great little beach. The house is located in a area that is quiet but close, not far from all the action if we want to be in it. The house had, boogie boards, sand, toys, beach chairs, and beach umbrellas. It was a really nice stay for our family.

Lovely oceanside home
We loved our time at Kauai Bay House! We traveled as a family - including my parents and two kids (7, 9). The house itself was great, well-equipped with beach gear, right on a cove with wonderful ocean sounds and views. You can walk along the road to the beach on that cove - enjoyed watching the sunset there. Excellent a/c on main level and in bedrooms; it could get a bit warm on upper level loft area but there are plenty of windows to open if needed - the ocean breeze and lots of fans available to help cool it down up there. 360 views from the loft were lovely any time of day! Clean and updated, comfortable beds and pull out couch. Location was very convenient to spouting horn, nearby shopping and dining as well as Poipu Beach. Access to Beach Club is a wonderful perk and very nice pool/club. Hosts were responsive and clearly care about their guests enjoying a relaxing vacation! We hope to return again some day!
