Family Vacation in Kauai

by Emily B.

My husband and I have 4 daughters, ages 14 to 19. We spent a week in Kauai and this villa was the perfect place for us! It was clean, spacious, comfortable, and located convenient to restaurants and the beach. We appreciated the extra towels, pillows, and beach gear as well as little things like shampoo / soap, toilet paper / paper towels, salt & pepper and laundry detergent. We have stayed in many vrbo’s over the years and these little convenience make such a big difference! I highly recommend this property and would not hesitate to book there again if we are lucky enough to return to the island.

Mahalo Emily for your five-star review and recommendation. Glad to hear your family found everything they needed to feel at home during your visit. We are happy that you enjoyed the location and we cannot wait to host you again.

Wonderful birthday stay

by Julie M.

The condo was clean and comfortable with lovely little decor touches, books, and a well-stocked kitchen. The balcony was quiet, had the ocean view pictured, and was a great place to relax. Check-in was seamless and we appreciated the gift recognizing our special occasion. Very happy with our stay!

Perfect condo

by HOLLY B.

We stayed here for 5 days. This condo is clean, up to date, comfortable. Great view from patio. Has everything you need in the kitchen except no keurig, it’s a regular coffee pot, which was not working properly and they came and fixed it for us. There’s lots of towels, beach towels, beach chairs and toys, tennis rackets etc. they have tvs in every room, air conditioner, fans and ceiling fans. This was one of our favorite stays. Only downfall, is it’s on the 3rd floor so when you get there you’ll need to lug up all your luggage 3 floors. But after that.. it’s no issue.

Mahalo Holly for your five-star review. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay and that our team was able to help out with the coffee pot. We look forward to hosting you again.

Beds too firm

by Sarah E.

The heat pump rattles sometimes, the front door often doesn’t stay locked when you push the button. The double beds need a topper to make them more comfortable. Love the landscaping.

Mahalo Sara for your review and comments. We would have happily come by to assist with the lock and the portable AC and perhaps even supplied a topper if we had known about these concerns while you were in-house. Next time, please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable. Looking forward to hosting you again. Aloha.

Great Location

by Courtney M.

This condo was exactly as described and even better. The location was perfect…just a short walk to the Poipu beach area for the best sunsets and a few turtle sightings! The condo was clean and very comfortable and the property management was very attentive and went the extra mile for our celebration! The only item to note is that all the doors are louvered…assuming to help the air conditioning flow through condo. We’d definitely stay at this condo again!

Mahalo Courtney for your five-star review and comments. We are so happy that your ohana had a wonderful time at the unit. Glad that our team could add a special touch to your anniversary trip. We hope to host you again soon.

If you choose to stay on the South portion of the island this is the place to be. The unit itself was beautiful, spotlessly clean, with the addition of beach towels, chairs and umbrellas for use. The view from our condo was amazing! It is steps away from the most beautiful part of the coastline. We walked to Brennecke’s beach each night to see the giant green sea turtles crawl up onto the sand at dusk to sleep. It is a wonder of nature you will not likely not see anywhere else on earth. Our host reached out several times to ask if we had any needs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

A week in paradise

June 2023 family vacation

by Elizabeth H.

This unit is on the top floor ( third floor), so it looks over the roofs of the houses in front of it for a wonderful ocean view. Such a delight to sit on the balcony for breakfast to enjoy the views and listen to the birds. Quiet, well maintained grounds. Such a plus to have boogie boards, chairs, umbrella, and a cooler in the unit. Two beaches very close. Unit comes with fully stocked kitchen. Plenty of toiletries in the bathrooms. Beds comfortable. Wonderful to have airconditioning.

Mahalo Elizabeth for your lovely 5-star review and comments. We are so happy that you enjoyed your time at Nihi Kai #521.

Perfect Vacation Home

by jenny c.

Nihi Kai 521 met all of our expectations. There was plenty of room for our family of five and had everything we needed for the 10 days we were in Kauai. The view from our balcony was beautiful and we could watch the sunset there every night. It was a quick walk to both Brennecke and Poipu Beaches. Access to the Heritage trail was also easily walkable. We would definitely stay here again!

Our condo was all we could have hoped for. It was exactly as the pictures showed, it was clean and spacious and a perfect location to Poipu Beach. We loved it and would definitely return.

Comfortable stay that is close to the beach. We had several issues during our stay, but appreciated the quick responsiveness of the host to correct the issues. Pros: -Just a block from the beach -Beds are very comfortable, some of the most comfortable of any Airbnb I’ve stayed in! -Good shower pressure -Very responsive staff -Clean Bathrooms -Great air conditioning throughout the unit -Plenty of room for our family of 5 -Good TV channel options for the kids -Great oceanfront pool that was never very crowded Cons: -Had an ant infestation the first night we checked in and had to throw away all the food we just bought that day and left on the counter. -House was not as stocked as I usually find in an Airbnb. For example we had to buy extra trash bags, laundry detergent, cooking oil, etc. -Parking lot was full one night and we had to park on the street -General upkeep of the unit could have been better. Carpet could be vacuumed better, sliding doors and screen doors frequently off jams, battery in the master safe was low and beeped all night out first night. Messaged the host and they sent someone out right away to take a look at the screens and doors, replace the battery in the safe, and spray the kitchen for ants.

Mahalo for your review and feedback.  We are so happy that you had a comfortable stay.  Had we known that you needed additional trash bags and other supplies, we would have gladly brought some over.  However, for cleanliness and the safety of our guests especially during the pandemic, we do not leave any open cooking supplies or other food items in the unit. Mahalo for letting us know about the other items.  We are glad that our team was able to get them resolved while you were in-house.  We look forward to hosting you again soon.  Aloha!

Fabulous

by JohnnyATraveller
What a great villa! We loved our week in 521. What did we like? It has a great cheater view of the ocean, just like in the photo. Not perfect but funny how we ended up sitting outside on the lanai all the time. During our stay we hosted another family for dinner. There were 8 of us. The space was more than accomodating. We liked 521’s privacy at the top of the stairs… there was no foot traffic to encroach. The bathrooms and kitchen are quite new, and the open concept kitchen just makes things feel bigger. Not great was the front bedroom’s temperature in the evening. If we didn’t close everything off (it accesses the front lanai), it would get really warm. Also, the carpet is a little tired. Finally, the proximity to Brenecke and Poipu Beach is excellent. Just a short stroll (2-5 minutes). We moved on to a property on Maui. Newer and more pristine, but way smaller without the view. We missed 521, and look forward to visiting again.

What a great condo!

by John Silman
What a great villa! We just spent 7 nights and loved our time. It was really big, with a great view of the water, spread out for privacy, and removed from the hustle and bustle up on the top floor. The front bedroom would get a little warm, but we closed doors and curtains there for afternoons and negated the problem. Otherwise the temp was great. Tennis courts are excellent, bbq’s well maintained. And its just a short walk to Brennecke’s and Poipu Beach. We’ll be back!
Mahalo John! We look forward to hosting you again…a hui hou.

Great Family Experience

by Washington
We had a great time here. We liked the readily available combination of beach and warm pool. This property is also very convenient to many of the “must see” places on Kauai, as well as close to some really great restaurants. All in all, we would definitely like to come here again.

Great, as always

by Oregon
We’ve stayed at Nihi Kai numerous times in the past. We had originally booked another condo through Parrish and after arriving on the island requested to change our lodging to Nihi Kai. Parrish was extremely accomodating and fulfilled our request immediately. As always we totally enjoyed our stay at Nihi Kai and would certainly recommend it to others who are planning a visit to Kauai.
