Serenity and beauty.

Most relaxing and amazing views of gorgeous flora and trees meticulously cared for by yard staff. So relaxing. Very quiet complex. Appreciated the yard level lanai for ease of access. Pool and barbecue area were perfect.

a wonderful stay

The apartment is as described. There is nothing to complain about. The possibility of using the public grills as well as the pool and hot tub is excellent. We would book this accommodation again and again.

Great place

We were very satisfied with our room, it was a couple of steps from the beach and to shops and restaurants. The grounds were beautiful and quiet. I was surprised that there were plates, cups, mugs and a toaster, we did have to purchase silverware but not a big deal. The beach chairs came in handy as well as the cooler. Great price for what we got, I would highly recommend this room we had a wonderful stay.

Great Service, Older Property

You get what you pay for. The property was older, run down and minimal resort amenities. That said, it is a good option for the price AND the service team was AMAZING. We had a few issues and they handled everything promptly and went above and beyond to help. Would highly recommend Vacasa, but Islander on the Beach is a budget property at best.

Adequate Stay

This is an adequate place to stay. The room is small and there is no ability to cook other than the microwave. There is a refrigerator but no freezer. The bathtub took a long time to drain after use. But....it is close to the beach and a nice ABC store and it is ideally located to explore the island.

Had a wonderful time waking up and heading straight to the lanai with my morning coffee.

Service was good and the maintenance man was wonderful as he showed me how to run the air conditioner and remote. The new chairs were also a plug-in the lanai. The ocean was in walking vicinity along with all the unique shops nearby for food and gifts!

Great Property on Kaua’i

This was really a great find. Perfect location to see the whole island and very clean and quiet. Sweet welcoming gift, beach chairs, and cooler were all added perks. Plenty of towels and beach towels. Walking distance (2 minutes) to lots of shops and food at the Coconut Market Place. We had a small glitch with the door code one day. I called the management company, and the problem was fixed in about one minute. I would highly recommend this property.

Great visit to Kauai

Our stay at the Islander was wonderful. The beds were very comfortable and the owners provided many extras such as a treats, beach towels, cooler, beach chairs, toaster and hair dryer. The walk to the beach was short and we watched the sunrise from there several mornings. We were next to Lava Lava Beach house which was super convenient for a meal or drink. We would stay here again.

Islander on the Beach, Kauai

Everything was clean and nice. Centrally located to both sides of island. More reasonably priced than North Shore. It was convenient that the service had 2 chair, cooler and beach towels in the unit and laundry exchange. It also had a frig, microwave, coffee pot and toaster and pool side grills. We limited ourselves eating out once a day if u go early u can take advantage of happy hour lunch menus and drink specials. Waimea Canyon drive and NaPali Coast boat tour is a must!

Great stay

I understand when things have to be done, but for 2 days at the end of our stay there was a small track hoe that was removing the hedge that was right outside our front door. Annoying to say the least. Otherwise beautiful place. I hope they install a fence for privacy.Thank you!

Sized right; located right

The condo is a studio and, therefore, small. That said, it has everything you need. The beds are comfortable. Everything works. It is convenient to the airport, but the planes don’t fly over. The unit does not have a sea view or pool view, but the grounds are pleasant to see and the pool and beach are in the resort and a 1 minute walk from the unit. It is equidistant from either end of the island (important because traffic can be very slow). There are restaurants and shopping within a short walk.

Towels

Kind of strange topic maybe, but when you’re have 4 grown humans in a room, you need bath towels, and more than just 4. There are no washer/dryer in this unit, and no access to the grounds laundry room. And no room service, ie cleaning, towel replenishing, etc. we needed towels.
