Nice 2BR@Beach Sleeps 5-$289 a night-Hear Waves! Value, Comfort-Best Location!

Aloha! Welcome to Kauai's central location to beach, shopping, and fun!

Simply: Spend your beach vacation in nice 2 Bedroom Condo with good ocean views, hear and see WAVES! My condo offers total of 3 air conditioners, each of the 2 bedrooms, and 1 in living room. Ample space for the family or friends with a safe carefree 5 minute walk to beach area and 12 restaurants and local fast food.
Again No fees extra for parking or resort fee like island hotels, nothing else added later.

Older complex, clean & comfortable. Good Views. No hidden fees. Free assigned close parking and fast WiFi provided. See surfers in the water easily seen from the patio. View of Nawiliwili Harbor, a working seaport, is across the street.

Year Round Same price - Value and location. Our spacious two bedroom vacation home that easily sleeps 4 adults in the 2 bedrooms, and up to 2 small children on hide-a-bed sofa in living room. Combo Playpen/crib (foldable) available to use. Best part is unit is just steps from the hillside pool or walk across the street about 1 block to Kalapaki Beach. This is a unique condominium in Banyan Harbor (BH), a well-maintained owner-owned property rated 4.3 stars. Our unit is mostly absence of roadside traffic noise due to its upper hillside location. It is a lovely 2-level design townhouse is desirable due to location as closest buildings to beautiful hilltop swimming pool & BBQ area, and tennis courts. Free parking in your own assigned covered parking space directly below the unit, with 2 stairways to our front door. Partial ocean views. Trendy Hawaiian home decor.

Coffee Maker, bogie boards, small coolers and folding beach chairs and beach towels. Plus: good part is there are no neighbors above this unit.

Total of 148 all-suite condominiums in complex located overlooking historic Nawiliwili area. Complex was built in1970's, in groups of two-story low-rise buildings on the hillside and street level overlooking a working shipyard and protected harbor of local fishing boats. Surrounded by fun shopping, 12 restaurants, activities and entertainment.

■ Why stay in a one room hotel room? Better when you can spread out in the living room, sleep in a separate bedroom, new washer/dryer inside condo. Save money and time by eating breakfast or packing lunches for day trips. Easy to BBQ meals and eat at pool area 2 minute walk.

■ Comfortable, older complex, great central location to either Poipu Beach (20 minutes drive) or Princeville North Shore is beautiful ocean and jungle 40 minutes drive.

Afternoon Check-in 3:30 pm and Morning Check Out time is 11:00 am.

This place is good value priced, as other owners in BH may charge less or many change raise up the daily rate depending on the season or holiday. However, the size, quality, furnishings, ocean views and location, sets our vacation condo far apart. New beautiful maghonany hand carved Master bedroom furniture hand carved in Bali.

Quiet here, too - very relaxing. Suggest while checking other units advertising online for Banyan Harbor, ask if on ground level near the road, views or provide air conditioning in both bedrooms. Units offered near main road will experience vehicle noises from local island traffic that is noticeable.

POOL: This condo is in the closest building to the Pool Area with main BBQ area. Good sized heated salt-brine pool, perfect setting to relax overlooking turquoise waters of Kalapaki Bay. Pool Area has Restrooms, BBQ’s, lounge chairs, lawn area for kids, and picnic tables in a fenced area. Tennis courts and shuffle board games to play for all ages, too.

BEACH: Kalapaki beach across the street offers many benefits: One of the safest, clean swimming public beaches in Kauai as it is protected by the Harbor. Many locals outrigger canoes, Stand Up paddle boards, or surfers here. No fear of giant crashing waves if you have small children, elderly or a new to ocean swimming.

Please email for last minute specials, 6 months or longer stays. Aloha!

Wonderful!
We had a great stay for 7 days. We loved being able to sit on the lanai and watch the ships and harbor activity. The condo had everything we could possibility need including quite a few pantry staples and condiments. Very traditional Hawaiian style home, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Location to Access the Island
The rental was exactly as listed. Clean and well stocked with things to help make a week long stay feel like home. There is a washer and dryer to get suits and towels clean after a day at the beach. There is a beach that is within walking distance, as well as some little shops and restaurants. The property is clean and you can easily access activities on the north and south shores from Lihue.

Great stay in Kauai
This was a great facility, certainly met our needs as a launching off point for activities all over the island. Very close to the airport, Costco, and target. And a nice beach just down the street.

Convenient and Comfortable
This condo is very conveniently located to the airport and the Royal Sonesta Resort where my husband was attending a conference. Overall positive report, but it is true that the local contact was hard to reach. Also, there was loud music and a few fireworks(?) one night till 3 a.m., presumably from the cruise ship in port. Instructions for the Wifi had been changed, but had not been updated in the instructions, so that took us a while to figure out. Overall, we were pleased with our stay.

Beautiful Banyan
This rental was more than adequate for our recent visit to Kauai. The living and dining room furniture is new and refrigerator & dishwasher are also new. The air conditioners are due for replacement but the fans in the bedrooms and open windows helped at night instead of listening to a noisy unit. The pool/bbq area were nice. BBQ’s were busy, so go early. Pool is salt water and small but nice. The condo is centrally located on Kauai and there is a really nice park and beach across the road. It was nice to have morning coffee on the lanai and watch the ships come into port. Karen (owner) was great to work with and very informative and prompt to answer our questions. We stayed here Jan 21-27,2024.

Beautiful Kauai
Our location was ideal for my conference close by at the Royal Sonesta, about a ten minute brisk walk. There were many places to eat close by, food trucks and sit down restaurants. We had a car, Costco and Safeway were no more than a ten minute drive. The large cruise boats were coming and going most days, which quite a spectacle. The morning sunrise was the highlight

Excellent Locale; Strong Value
Great décor. Quality, plentiful linens. Excellent wi-fi. Lanai is sweet spot for sunrise breakfast. Nice to have car right below, especially when sun was blazing/ raining out. Luxury not to haul beach chairs and a cooler across a parking lot. Front desk friendly. Complex has solar, making trip more eco-friendly. Short walk to the clean pool w/ amazing view of Nawiliwili & mountains. Easy walk to Kalapakī Beach. Not far from Kapaʻa & Poʻipū for good restaurants. Farmers markets, Costco, Target, etc., not far. Relief to have no one above. Generally quiet unit, though one day we heard housekeeping yelling next door. Loud party nearby on last night. Heard waves at night when the (faint) highway noise fades. Roughly 18 steps to condo. Would like more lighting if I were woman staying alone. 2nd bedroom not closed off completely (top is open). Good to know if you have light sleepers. Washing machine smelled like previous guests let it get musty. Window AC units were between 60 & 70 decibels on lowest setting. Owner explained that trade winds at night make AC unnecessary. There were cool breezes at night, but a loud party nearby on last night made us close windows. Few dirty/ broken things, but nothing major. To be fair, owner gave us maintenance's info before stay. But instead of complaining, we just cleaned up. Why bother with arranging repair while on vacation? Would stay at BH again for location alone. Overall, strong value.
