Bright and Cheery Guest House!
This was an excellent find. It took a while searching through the properties, but this turned out to be wonderful. It is a lovely guest house with all the amenities. It is close to a shopping center and the beach. My wife was getting her Scuba certification at Seaport Divers, which was a 15-minute walk. (Also, it's a great place!) It is only a 10-minute walk to shopping and restaurants and 6 miles from Koloa Village, which you should visit during your stay. Full-size washer and dryer, great kitchen, and fully air-conditioned for those days with no breeze and hot. Well-stocked home. Anyway, we will rent again!

Koloa Stay
Our time in Koloa wasn’t what we expected. The island and especially Koloa experienced a huge rain storm that dropped over 14 inches of rain the weekend of our stay. Our cottage remained dry which was a huge relief! We were able to do a couple of hikes during the day as the rain fell mostly at night. We had one day of rain that kept us indoors. We spent that day relaxing at the cottage and making our own meals. The kitchen is well stocked with everything that is needed plus extras. We especially enjoyed making our own smoothies with fresh fruit. The air conditioner was not used as it was unusually cool due to the rains. There are many restaurants in the area as well.

Small but Beautiful
This place is so adorable and very clean. I was also very impressed with how well stock the kitchen amenities are. The only complaint that I have is that someone came and opened the garage on our last night while we were going to sleep for our early departure the next morning. The main bedroom is directly on top of the garage so I was startled when the I heard the door opening unexpectedly.

Great Home
Our stay was great! It was 2 adults and our 2 teen children. The place was easy to find, very clean, great location. First night we tried the blender and it was broken, easy to communicate with staff and the next day we had a new blender waiting for us. Definitely would recommend and would stay here again.

This place was great!!! Clean, private, well appointed and conveniently located next to many beaches, shops and restaurants. We especially enjoyed the upper deck, where we spent much time relaxing and enjoying the views. The neighbourhood is very quiet as it is not a thoroughfare. We would definitely come back!!

Clean, cozy, convenient
A great home base for all of our adventures! Light and bright and good a/c and celing fans. Comfy bed and kitchen is great. Beach chairs and cooler and washer/drier all so helpful. Check in info via email and early info provided all very professional. Note it's a bit smaller than the wide angle photos make it seem, but it doesn't matter because you come here to see stuff, not lay around!

Beautiful Home!
My husband and two adult children stayed at this beautiful home on Kauai! The pictures are exactly what you get. It’s so comfortable and clean. I love how it was decorated and stocked. We were able to cook in the gorgeous kitchen and not need for anything. It’s really well located with Poipu beach a couple minutes down the road and great shopping and restaurants a couple of minutes in the other direction. I really appreciated the downstairs level being where we could clean up and hang wet stuff to dry. The second level living area has gorgeous views! I really can’t say enough. We will be staying there again! :)
