This lovely condo looked as though it was recently and very nice compared to one we had rented for a night at Banyan Harbor the week before. Contemporary, very clean and thoughtfully furnished. I would not recommend sleeping on the pull out couch to trundle however, as it is very firm. There was a comfortable recliner so I slept in that. A blow dryer in the bathroom would be a good addition. But we very much appreciated this lovely condo. The owners have done a really great job with it.

A bit dated but clean. Spacious. Conveniently located. Had full kitchen, which is a huge bonus. The only issue I had was that the pictures on Expedia showed hardwood floors, it looked updated from when I had previously visited. The unit I got still had the old carpet, so not the updated one I was hoping for. But at least all the air conditioning units worked this time yay! All in all it was a good place to stay

I got a really nice Condominium (look’s like a house) doble floor, doble bedroom, doble bathroom and a nice view to the sea. You need to drive like 20 min far away to find a nice place to swing but it is an small island. Behind the hotel it is an amazing place to eat, the name is Kauai Boba & Barbecue( delicious and amazing people).

The bed and pillow was a bit firm for my liking and the ceiling fan didn't work but the bedroom had AC. Overall, the condo was very nice and clean and comfortable and within close proximity to restaurants, tourist attractions and the airport. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Our room in building D was the closest to the road that you could get. The large trucks coming down the hill using their jake brakes was awful. Extreme car and truck noise all night long. Impossible to sleep with all the road noise. There was a bee hive on our lanai so we had bees in our room. Pool area/bbq was nice for dinner. Location was walking distance to the beach and restaurants which was good.

The Banyan Harbor has 51 townhouse style units that might be a little dated but the unit was well appointed and had most everything we needed. The buuilding we were in had many steps and made for a good work out but you can ask for a walk in style unit if they are available. The view of the harbor had one obstruction but otherwise had a nice view of the bay. It was easy walking distance to the beach and multiple restaurants. All the amenities worked well including washer, dryer, dishwasher, etc. The A/C worked well on both levels and the rooms were inviting and beds comfortable. I would recommend this to anyone that isnt into large resort style complexes and would prefer to cook their own meals or go out if they wish. Lastly, there was a salt water pool with BBQ station, shuffle board and pickleball court.

Great location and value
Great value and the room had everything we needed. The front desk lent us some beach chairs and an umbrella for a very small fee, and there were lots of beach towels in the room. We had reserved a suite with a queen bed and to be honest it really seems like it is a double - however the other room had two twin beds so we pushed them together and slept very well. Would totally stay here again. Was a quick walk to amazing food trucks and Duke's Kauai, and a pretty central location to get to other parts of the island pretty easily by car.

It is a short walk to Kalapaki beach and we enjoyed a nice hike to the beacon for sunrise. The beds were comfortable, and i enjoyed the little breezy patio in back. They were able to accommodate us with an ADA room. We were here to move my mom into an apartment in Lihue and this was the perfect location -- close to the airport, Target, Costco, Home Depot, and furniture stores. The staff was friendly and so nice.

I miss this place. It was fantastic to have a washing machine, dryer, and kitchen, especially with a small child requiring cooking and laundry. We chose this location because it’s situated in a very convenient place, with less than an hour’s drive to all the amazing locations. We also enjoyed watching cruises arriving and departing.
