Ocean View 4th Floor Deluxe Suite. Fun Resort With Pools, Beach, and Dining | Apartment in Lihue

Cute studio suite at Kauai Beach Resort with panoramic ocean and pool views from the 4th floor of the 5 story main building. My place is a "condotel" (condominium-hotel). This was once a Hilton hotel but now each of the 364 units were sold. About 20% of the rooms are advertised to rent directly from owners like myself. This saves you a bunch of money and you know exactly what room you are getting.
My place is 307 square feet plus a 58 square foot balcony. You get ocean and pool views from inside and outside my place. My room number is 2412 which is the 4th floor of the main building. This is about the best view at the resort and the most convenient location with access to shops, restaurants, elevator, microwave, and the front desk. No hauling your bags or long walks each time you use your car.
My room, like most in the resort, is similar to a hotel room. I have a comfortable king bed and a queen size air mattress which makes it perfect for 4 adults but it does get pretty cramped when the air bed is used. A Pack-n-Play crib is also provided at no charge for infants/toddlers. Granite counters and some travertine floors. LG flat screen 32" TV. Fridge with freezer. Beach chairs and boogie board. Cooler with ice pack. Sliding shutter-style doors. 25 acre resort on miles long beach. Tropical grounds with koi ponds. 4 pools including one with a water slide. Kid friendly pool has sand surrounding it and gradual slope entry. Multiple jacuzzis plus a grotto and waterfalls. On site salon, fitness center, laundry room, business center, and 3 restaurants.
Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
1. Is this a 1 bedroom condominium?
Once a Hilton hotel, the Kauai Beach Resort is a condotel. It's like a luxury resort but many of the suites are individually owned. My #2412 suite is studio size: 307 square feet plus a 58 square foot lanai. Most units are about this size and have similar furnishings. There is no cooking allowed in the room per Kauai County regulations, but there is a coffee maker and mini fridge with freezer. And if you go up a floor to the lounge, you can access the microwave available to guests.
2. What's the difference between my suite, renting from the resort, or some other travel agency or website? The difference is price, amenities, housekeeping, and choice of room. My suite is quite a bit less expensive overall and has one of the best views since it is on the 2nd highest floor with direct(instead of angled) ocean views. Resort room rates start at $350/night plus tax. Mine starts at $229/night plus tax.
Amenity differences(subject to change):
-I do not charge a daily resort fee. Theirs is $25/night
-the resort fee gives their guests the following extras: newspaper, DVDs, Playstation, yoga classes, and cultural activities. My guests can still use the pools, spa, restaurants, bar, room service, shops, business center, fitness center, car rental, and laundry room but may not participate in some of the on-site cultural activities.
-I do not increase my room charge for more than 2 guests
-I do not charge for an extra bed
-I have beach chairs, cooler, ice pack, larger fridge, and boogie board...they don't
-parking is $35.00/day plus tax. Theirs is $29.00/day
-during your stay, if you need assistance you call, email, or text myself or my on island contact person. A full priced guest would go to the front desk.
I know this seems like a lot of stuff but I am hoping to clarify what your experience will be like at the resort. These policies will be the same for all owners like myself who advertise here or on similar vacation rental websites. For most guests, your enjoyment will be equivalent and these differences not noticeable or relevant. Plus you are saving a bunch of money and getting one of the best rooms in the resort!
3. Is this an ocean view suite?
YES. And it is not just visible out on the balcony sticking your head around the corner. It is a straight on view from the 2nd highest floor in the resort. Other independent owner suites may be less expensive, but you are usually getting a mountain or lagoon view or on the 1st floor.
4. Is there a kitchen?
No, just a 3.5 cu. ft. fridge with freezer and coffee maker. No kitchenware provided(no plates, utensils, pots etc.). There is a microwave down the hall and up one floor in the lounge
5. What is there to do?
For short stays, you may want to keep it simple and stay at the resort enjoying the restaurants and bar, walks along the beach, tennis, spa, or one of the pools. You can arrange with the front desk to rent a car for day trips only when you need it. With a long term car rental to explore all over the island, best rates are probably found at the airport and there is an additional parking charge of $35.00/day plus tax. Car rental rates vary depending on where you rent, so shop around and book ahead at busy times of the year. The resort is just minutes from the airport and town. Being mid-island makes it perfect for touring the sights of Kauai to the north and south.
6. What is the bedding arrangement?
The suite is ideal for 2 adults using the king size bed. For an additional 2 people, I provide a comfortable queen sized air mattress easily inflated in 90 seconds with the provided electric pump. There's also a Pack and Play crib with bassinet at no additional charge.
7. Do we need our own beach towels?
I will provide towels to use at the pool and beach
8. Is there a resort fee?
Since you are the guest of myself, the owner of #2412, there is no resort fee...a daily savings of $25. There is a cleaning fee collected at time of booking which provides cleaning of the room after your departure. Other VRBO owners add additional fees, but I try to keep mine lower and not lure you in with a teaser nightly rate that gets expensive after all the fees are added. I trust you will take care of my place, so I don't ask for a deposit either. So the only fee you might incur at the resort is $35.00/day plus tax for parking
9. What about WiFi?
WiFi is free everywhere around the resort!
10. Does the suite have air conditioning?
Yes. And nice ocean breezes.
11. Where is suite #2412 located?
It is on the fourth floor of building 2. This is near to where you check in and also houses dining and shops. Elevators will get you to your floor. Most other buildings are only 3 floors. You will enjoy beautiful sunrises each day as you may find yourself up early due to the time change or the local roosters!
Other Notes:
-Hawaii tax of 17.962% is added to the nightly rate.
-Parking is $35.00/day plus tax.
-Mid stay cleaning or towel and trash service can be requested a day ahead from my housekeeping service
-I try to keep extra supplies in the room in the bins under the bed for things like toilet paper, tissues, soap, etc. And I try to supply enough towels, sheets, blankets, and pillows for your comfort during your stay but if you need extras, just let me know a day ahead of time
-There are pool and beach towels available at no charge
-Any stays longer than 7 nights will receive a free mid-stay room clean
-Check-In Time - 3:00pm, Check-Out Time - 11:00am
-No smoking.
-No pets
-I am available to answer any questions or concerns. I am located in southern California. You will be given contact information of an on-island person to help you with matters beyond my control
-Tax ID: TA-108-429-7216-01 and GE-108-429-7216-01
