Gardenfront Escape with Ocean Views at Kapa’a Sands 24, hotel in Kapaa

Offering an outdoor swimming pool and a garden, Gardenfront Escape with Ocean Views at Kapa’a Sands 24 in Kapaa is close to Lae Nani Beach and Wailua Beach.

Small beach on the property which is nice if you want to enjoy without having to drive to a bigger beach. Beautiful views from our condo. The place was nicely equipped (blender, beach chairs, coolers etc). The pool is very nice to have when you want to freshen up on those very hot and humid days. Very walkable with a small shopping center, restaurants and a market around,there is also a safeway a little further convenient for groceries. It is also very well situated to go both on the north and west shore of the island to see all the beautiful things that the Kauai island has to offer. We very much enjoyed the two bedroom unit. Spacious and perfect for our family, every had their space and we enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor living spaces

Kapa'a Sands 09, hotel in Kapaa

Kapa'a Sands 09 provides beachfront accommodations in Kapaa. The property is around 9.1 miles from Wailua Falls, 2.4 miles from Opaekaa Falls and 7.3 miles from Nawiliwili Park.

The apartment was a great size and very clean and the decor was perfect. It was in a great location and we could get to all parts of the island within 40 minutes or so. The apartment was close to Kappa which had good restaurants and shopping and everything you needed but was nice and quiet and away from major streets and noise. The sound of the waves were spectacular and the bed nice and comfortable! We had everything we needed in the apartment including cooler bags, beach chairs and lots of towels.

Waipouli Beachfront Condo with Balcony and Ocean Views, hotel in Kapaa

Just a few steps from Waipouli Beach and a 3-minute walk from Papaloa Beach, Waipouli Beachfront Condo with Balcony and Ocean Views features accommodations in Kapaa with a garden.

Beautiful location!! I brought my mom on our first mother daughter trip and we absolutely LOVED this condo and even said we would come back to this exact spot again. The beach attached to this location was amazing, even had a seal resting on it one of the days that we ended up laying near for hours! We were close enough to everything we wanted to see, only 15 mins from the airport, and even walking distance from a Safeway shopping center. The two separate rooms were perfect for us. I couldn’t recommend this location more! Absolutely perfect!!

    Ideal location on the beach. Many restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance. The town of Kapaa offers also many options at a 5 mins drive. Located on the east coast, it’s a very good base to explore the island (north shore is 30 mins drive, the canyon is at an hour drive). The pool and the yoga classes are very nice !
