My only complaint is that the AC unit kicks on every 45 min. in the middle of the night and it is very loud:( We had to shut it off to sleep, which got a little hot. There is also a window above the master bed without a shade that lets in the lights from outside. Not a bid deal if you don't prefer sleeping in the dark ##### Gaylene G.

Nov 26, 2022 #### Overall a Nice Stay... but not worth the expensive bill Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a bit disappointing that there was construction above the rental property throughout the day. Couldn’t access the outdoor space due to this, rented the house for the view, but couldn’t go outside and enjoy it. My senior father fell down the stairs in the suite as the flooring is all the same color and hard to see level changes. He ended up needing medical due to this. The location of Princeville is nice, but the suite was hard to access the beach (although this was accurate to the posting). The building is very old, with modern furniture. The kitchen seems like someone dumped all the items they didn’t want anymore and was missing some of the basics like a mixing bowl. The resort was great at responding to any questions and were able to accommodate a bed for my infant. Overall a nice place, but unfortunately the cost and product don’t match. ##### Cheyenne B. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Stephanie R., Dallas United States Nov 20, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Beautiful property but significant construction directly above our unit Pu’u Poa 114 was exactly as pictured and is a beautiful layout and unit. All of the finish out is fantastic. There are a total of four couches/sitting areas inside, and they are all very comfortable. The bed in the primary bedroom was a little soft, and the bed pillows were quite high and stiff, but we still slept well. The air conditioning worked very well, and the view is pretty. Unfortunately, there was significant construction directly above our unit going on, and during the day, we heard a lot of hammering/drilling from 8-4. We were also not permitted to enjoy our private yard and view outside from the hours of 8am - 4pm (signs were posted as such). We called the property management company, and after the second phone call, Chris, the owner of the management company called us and took great care of us. We were moved to another unit in Pu’u Poa, which was nice. Not nearly as beautifully decorated or large, but it did have a beautiful view of Bali Hai and the ocean. We were comped one full night at the Pu’u Pao unit price and refunded the difference between the new unit’s nightly rate for our remaining nights. We were so impressed with how our situation was handled, we’ll seek opportunities to stay at other properties managed by the same company. Chris provided the gold-star of customer service, and while moving units during our stay was not planned, it helped make our trip a beautiful one. I’d just inquire about construction prior to booking this unit if visiting Pu’u Poa in the coming months (Nov 2022-Feb 2023). ##### Stephanie R.

Sep 28, 2022 #### Relaxing Stay Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is great as you can see the ocean from almost anywhere in the house. You can also hear the ocean if you are out on the patio or have the doors open. Very private for a condo. Two nenes visited a few times, and you could see and hear several other interesting birds and frogs. The kitchen was roomy for a condo and was well-equipped. Everything was in working order. It is nice to be a short walk/hike down to Hideaway Beach, as it was never crowded, there were honu, and the snorkeling was great. Hosts/management were responsive to questions. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Jamie P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie F. May 31, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spectacular Rental with Amazing Views This rental is located in a fantastic spot in Princeville. Situated right next to Hideaway Beach to the left and a the most beautiful sunset lookout to the right. Several delicious food options within a 15 minute drive. You can be on the highway to reach the south side of the island or west side in just a few minutes. The rental is spacious and beautiful inside with a very clean minimalist vibe. We felt very comfortable and at home upon arrival. The rental has all of the appliances, dishware, and pots/pans needed to make all your meals. There were trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, coffee filters, hand and dish soaps, and dishwasher pods stocked for our stay. The viewfrom the lanai each morning as we sipped our coffee and planned our day is spectacular. We loved lounging on the couches near the sliding glass doors in the evenings while taking in the views for the last part of the day. We are so glad we chose this rental for our stay on Kauai!

Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Carol D. Mar 8, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Lovely unit with unobstructed ocean views Located near the end of Ka Haku Road, this beautifully updated condo has unobstructed views of the ocean. We saw whales and surfers galore. It's close to Puu Po'a Beach and Hideaway Beach. The unit itself is spacious and comfortably furnished. Note that it is not Accessible--from the parking lot there are 8 steps up and then 24 steps down to reach the unit. Also, the pool is at the far end of the complex, and you must walk through the parking lot to get there. ##### Carol D.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wow, the photos don't do this condo justice. Beautiful property, the condo is huge. Nicely renovated and the most secluded spot in the building. Very clean. Can't beat the view. Makana Kauai was wonderful to work with. The check in / check out process and their mobile app made it very smooth. I can't wait to rent from them again! ##### Tanya M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chad S., Seattle, WA Dec 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place!!!

The unit was gorgeous, the view was amazing, and it was everything we hoped it would be. We loved the location for so many reason. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed (we cooked in a lot) and there were Nene geese that kept us company out front every day. ##### tawnya c.
