Exceeded expectations!!
Kaua’i bay house exceeded expectations in every way. The location was perfect. The house sits away from the congested resort areas, but still well within easy access to restaurants, shops, beaches, etc., which are all just down the road. There is also a quiet beach and park right next door. The house itself was perfect for our needs. The pace is very nice and well maintained, yet still cozy and comfortable - exactly what a beach house should be. The kitchen was fully equipped, there were ample linens, and even had beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, etc., -all of which were in good condition. The property is positioned directly on the waterfront, with a comfortable breeze 24/hr/day - we never once needed the air conditioner. The Koloa Kai team did an exceptional job of communicating with us and making everything as convenient as can be. We were even greeted with a welcome basket, seeing as we were there celebrating our wedding anniversary. We will definitely look to stay here again, the next time we are in Kauai.

Good Location for Poipu and Koloa
We wished we would have known about the harbor lights and lack of window treatments in the main rooms as it would have influenced our lodging decision in the poipu area. There was a lack of privacy definitely at night time. Otherwise the house had ample space for four adults, nice views, and a good location. The local beach was great for a quick ocean dip.

The house is beautiful and the views were breath taking! The kitchen was very well stocked with spices which was very much appreciated. The ice machine did not work which would not have been an issue if the island wasn’t having an ice shortage. The location was perfect and we all had a wonderful time!

This home is beautiful, homey, has beach vibes and sits practically on the water. Hearing the waves crash during the night, is the best for relaxing sleep. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The location is great. Close to so many great places to visit. We just loved it.

This was my daughters first time to visit, and this home was perfect for my family of 5. We will be back again for sure!

Little piece of paradise.
We picked this place to stay at since we were getting married and having our honeymoon at the same time. The house was amazing, and when we walked in for the first time they had a bottle of champagne and chocolates with a card congratulating us. We appreciated that so much and were thankful for that gesture. We loved leaving the sliding glass door open in our room at night for the air coming in and the sounds of waves hitting the rocks. The best part of the place to us was the hammock!!! We layed on it all the time and just enjoyed the weather and ocean view from it. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay for the first half of our honeymoon. We will definitely be staying there again when we come back.

Good, Not Great
Our stay combined stunning views and a perfect location with several drawbacks. The property's prime location and beautiful outdoor spaces, like the lanai and hammock, were highlights. However, challenges abounded. Cramped indoor spaces made comfort difficult. Upon arrival, a disturbing late-night incident involving a local burning bushes next to the house required police intervention and set a negative tone. The nearby pier was a persistent source of nighttime noise from gatherings, loud music, and fireworks, disrupting our peace and forcing us to shut windows to block out light and sound, which detracted from the natural beauty. The open loft design and awfully creaky floors meant noise traveled easily, affecting sleep if anyone moved. In summary, while the location and scenery were positive, issues with space, noise, and privacy marred our experience, making it less peaceful and comfortable than anticipated.

Island Paradise
This house was near perfect. The pictures do not do it justice. It was beautiful, spacious, and clean. There were beautiful views from each of the many windows and it was thoughtfully filled with essentials. We stayed as a group of adults but will definitely bring our families back if we are ever lucky enough to visit again. It is a short walk to a small beach and a very short drive to restaurants, shopping and more beaches.

We had a great time at a beautiful house with an amazing view. We really loved the athletic club, with a 1 year old, it was a great fit. We worked out there, played volleyball and went to the pool quite a bit. The house is in a great location, we could walk to the Botanical Garden and the Spouting Horn. Overall everything was perfect for our group.

We had an amazing stay at this home. The location was perfect for our extended family. Close enough to food and amenities but still remote enough to be away from a lot of people. When we entered the home, we all felt it was better than the pics, which never happens! It was also the perfect location for a wedding proposal! The backyard created the perfect backdrop for a memorable moment. Highly recommend!

We especially liked watching the comings and goings of the working harbor and felt more connected to the island than staying in a big condo complex. Stay here and welcome to the perfect stay

Lovely oceanside home
We loved our time at Kauai Bay House! We traveled as a family - including my parents and two kids (7, 9). The house itself was great, well-equipped with beach gear, right on a cove with wonderful ocean sounds and views. You can walk along the road to the beach on that cove - enjoyed watching the sunset there. Excellent a/c on main level and in bedrooms; it could get a bit warm on upper level loft area but there are plenty of windows to open if needed - the ocean breeze and lots of fans available to help cool it down up there. 360 views from the loft were lovely any time of day! Clean and updated, comfortable beds and pull out couch. Location was very convenient to spouting horn, nearby shopping and dining as well as Poipu Beach. Access to Beach Club is a wonderful perk and very nice pool/club. Hosts were responsive and clearly care about their guests enjoying a relaxing vacation! We hope to return again some day!

Me and my fiancé went for 4 nights 5 days and loved the property! It is definately big enough to bring 2-4 more friends or kids with the amount of space and rooms etc. It felt home-y and we appreciated the plenty of communication from the hosts and even ideas of what do do out there! Like travel agents almost haha. Really nice! Sometimes there would be late night partying at the beach that we could hear but it did not ruin our experience at all
