Great place & location

This VRBO was perfect from my girlfriend and I. We felt right at home being able to cook, watch movies and hang by the pool when we wanted. It’s also in a very central area with lots to do in a walking distance. We enjoyed this place very much and will def look to stay here again. Highly recommended!

Another amazing condo stay

We have stayed at Pono Kai for over 15 years and always love it. Normally we have the kids with us and get a 2 bedroom. This time we didn’t take the kids, so we rented the 1 bedroom with Murphy bed in the parlor. To say we were pleased is an understatement. The condo was spacious, clean and the air conditioner worked great. Russ our host was INCREDIBLE with communication and we extended our stay there as we loved it that much. It is hard having family come visit for dinner as the resort itself only always registered guests in the pool area so be aware of that rule. Recommend this condo 100%

Right in the middle of Paradise

Pono Kai is a great location on Kauai. Lots of things to do close to where you are. We stayed 7 days and didn't use a full tank of gas. Yet we were doing something everyday! The lighthouse at kileaua, bike path, Smith family luau, Capt Andy's star BBQ coastline Cruise, Wailau kayak adventure, and one day enjoying the facilities @ Pono Kai & Beach! Love every minute celebrating my wife's birthday week! Mahalo!

Pono Kai

Loved the Suite, convenient 1st floor, parking near entrance, close to beach, pool and walking trail along coast. We stayed over 3 weeks, only downside was the small couch was not a relaxing design. Overall, the resort is excellent, and next time we come back, we would stay again!

Pono Kai knows how to streamline your Aloha vacation.

Pono Kai knows how to take the worry out of a vacation. Lots to do on and off property. Did not experience road noise at night, unless emergency vehicles. Most guests respected the quiet time hours. A relaxing stay highly recommended ground floor unit.

Ponies Kai

The place has outdated furniture from the 70’s, the overall experience was good. The place was clean, the closet and slider were not working when arrived but were fixed right away. The hallways were having the flooring removed which were moldy smelling. But the hallways should be better in the future.

Lovely property

We are so glad we chose both this apartment and property. It is a comfortable space with everything we needed. The town of Kaap’a turned out to be extremely convenient for exploring all parts of the island and Pono Kai is close to some nice restaurants and shops and being able to walk the path a few steps to the beach from our unit was an extra bonus.

Nice place and location.

We had an enjoyable time at this condo. The only complaint was that it was a little dated, but we weren’t staying in the room that much. We had friends stay at the building next to ours. They had a lot of outdoors items in theirs. Boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler, treats etc. I thought that would have been a nice surprise!!! I definitely would stay again.
