Dear Jack, Dorinda, and Mark

My husband and I are concluding our week stay in your comfortable condo and want to say "Mahalo". We traveled west to east, north to south, and enjoyed every direction! It's been a short week but a lifetime of beautiful memories.

Thank you so much,
Roger and Dee Dee Ruby
P.S. My husband will add more to your website once we're home in West Virginia!

What a marvelous place to stay! No high use scene this! Prince Kuhio park out our back door and the ocean view though a little means a lot of privacy and pretty vistas. This is the most relaxing vacation ever for both of us. It's our honeymoon and both 50+ so we know from beach resorts!!
The place is sweet, the gardens beautiful and the rainbow eueaclytus a wonderful surprise! Remember that multicolor clay we played with in grade school? The stuff we used to ball up in all the colors - the bark looks exactly like that!!
Location, location, location - quiet walk down to the garden and spouting horn any time we pleased and coffee on the beach in the morning. Just a wos! I'd recommend this #106 for sure!! :-)

Aloha!!

Can't tell you how great it is to be in paradise with the one you love! You probably know. Arrived tired and hungry. Poipu Grill has great burgers (and I don't usually eat food from a "window"). Check out Shipwreck Beach close to Poipu with great ocean vistas. Mediterranian Cafe on the North Shore was nice - good food - and views. Enjoyed Gaylords for Sunday brunch. Waimea was stunning. We took the 7 hour NaPali trip with Holo Holo Charters. Would recommend them. Saw whales and dolphins, snorkeling was not that great (best by condo). If you go, take Bromamine even if you normally don't get sea sick. It was rough! Many people got sick. It is incredibly beautiful. A once in a life time experience.
Decided to do some horseback riding to see more of the "interior". Silver Falls Stables were great. Spent one day going to various beaches on the North Shore. Secret Beach, Lava Pools & Queen's Bath are all worth the short hike in. Also loved Anini Beach, known as one of the safest beaches. Claudia is a scardy cat of the ocean - and loved it. Coffee plantation was well worth the time. Could go on and on. Guess we had a lot of fun and hat to leave. The breeze, the birds, haven't slept this good in months.

Aloha,

Our first time on the island - we loved it! Rained the first 3 days then the weather was wonderful! Our favorite outing was Captain Andy's Na Pali Snorkeling Cruise. It is a fun ride with awesome scenery - but only if you enjoy "wave riding". The snorkeling across the street and at Poipu Beach was good - great fish. The canyon was great - glad we toured the island end to end. Sunset across the street were good but alas - no green flash.

Aloha,

This is our 5th visit to Kauai The garden island and the best island. All of this year we are celebrating our 45th anniversary and how better to start it off with a months stay in Paradise. We have been all over the island and all around the island and this south shore area continues to be our favorite. Abundant beaches, spectacular whale watching, quaint little Old Koloa Town and Spouting Horn. Seeing an occasional Monk Seal and a few sea turtles adds to our enjoyment. We love the fantastic sunsets while sitting no the wall at the Beach House just across the road. Watch for the "green flash". I witnessed three on this stay!
We have eaten at several local restaurants but the best was across the road at the Beach House. Make a reservation a few days in advance. Best pizza is at the Brick Oven and never pass up Jo Jo's shave ice on your way to the Canyon.
We have enjoyed our time in #106. It has been even more than we had expected. Thank you Jack & Dorinda.

This is our first trip to Kauai and each island is different. We are enjoying ourselves exploring the different parts of the island. We fortunately missed the flooding. Timing is everything! :-)
We will be back for sure if I can talk the husband into it. It has been very relaxing. Plan to do the ATV ride which will be one of the highlights of the trip. The condo has worked out well.

Thank you

We've had a relaxing week, in spite of the rain, winds and nightly storms. Not quite the weather we'd hoped for. Loved the drives to Princeville and Waimea Canyon. Kioki's is a wonderful restaurant - great atmosphere and live music everyday but Saturday.

This was our first trip to Hawaii and well worth the wait. We celebrated our 15th anniversary on the 9th at the Smith Luau. Great time! We loved the condo. The chairs, towels, and beach matts were fantastic!! The location is wonderful! I think we did it all. We took in the North Shore including the Lighthouse and Queen's Bath (incredible if you don't mind the hike).
We traveled all the way to the end of the canyon and saw the Na Pali Coast. I am grateful we saw the coast because our sailing trip was cancelled due to the 15' - 20' waves. Captain Andy's refunded our money. We will go someday and book with them.
Highlights: Camp House Grill and Kauai Coffee Plantation. Both unexpected delights. Beach House is beautiful but the food was not as good as expected. Keoki's Paradise across from Poipu is great. We saw tons of whales right across the street. We took some pictures of them breeching out of the water.

Aloha and Happy New Year!

Our favorite island - our 3rd year. First time staying in this area. Great snorkeling right across the street. Loved the sunsets across the street too. Wonderful walks to Spouting Horn and past Poipu Beach. Saw whales, turtles and Monk seal on beach in Poipu.
Love breakfast at Tip Top, sandwiches at Brennickes, Roy's good but pricey. Used grill here; chairs and cooler. Wonderful to have lots of good meals in condo. A little more rain than we've ever had. A few ants but they sprayed.
Hope to be back as we didn't have time to do everything we love to do and see here. Beach House Rest on our last night by far our favorite. Truly Paradise

Our favorite island and we have been to them all!
Great unit, kitchen really well supplied but how about a small fan in the kitchen!
Enjoyed all the sports mentioned by other guests and visited the Allerton Gardens with guide "Wendy" - The Best! What an incredible spot.
Hanapepe Cafe on Friday nites is the best. Bring your wine and for $5.00 corking fee you beat every other prince on Kauai. Food is great.
Appreciate all the beach equipment, especially the chairs, umbrella and cooler. Thanks so much.

We have had to best time our 2nd time here together. 1995 was our first. Things have really changed with more changes to come! Went from one end to the other and like southend much better. Sunsets are just beautiful along with sunrises. Got some really good pictures of both.

Our daughter and son-in-law here also down in 102 so we had two rooms to wander between. Had the best time in Tidepools at Hyatt Resort (best Lava Flow).

This is our third trip to Kauai and the beauty of this island still takes our breath away. We're here to celebrate a number of things - our 60th birthdays, our anniversary (13 yrs) and Mark being cancer free for nearly 2 yrs. In 2005, the doctors gave us more reasons to plan an funeral than to plan a vacation. He beat incredible odds and survived stage IV gastric cancer. What a joy to see him surfing again...
Thank you for sharing a little piece of paradise thru the use of your wonderful condo. God bless!

We came here to celebrae our 25th anniversary. The attractions were nice, the island beautiful but my husband and I were so blessed by the people we meet here - a couple that we met on the plane and invited us into their home like family and some vacationers like us who we meet on the local beaches - thats what made this trip memorable to us!

This is our first visit to Kauai and we had a wonderful few days - only "way" too few! It's our 35th anniversary trip and now we're off to Honolulu to attend a wedding. What a wonderful, beautiful and so relaxing time we have had. Enjoyed the beaches, the Beach House Restaurant - but was especially fond of Casablanca Restaurant. We hope to return again and with more time to stay. The condo was very comfortable and a peaceful home away from home. Thank you for sharing that with us.

This is our first trip to Kauai and have had a very relaxing time. Wids were very blustery for a few days around Hurricane force, but mostly dry.
In addition to snorkeling (left a boogie board for the next guests), sunbathing, shopping, a boat ride along the NaPali Coast, and a tour of the Allerton Garden (just up the street and well worth the time), we spent many hours exploring the Garden Isle.
Everyone should eat at the Beach House and Keoki's Paradise (hey, our motto is "it's only money" - IOM!) If you want to see turtles, Check out PK across the street. Amazing!
The condo is great and mostly quiet. Really appreciated the wireless access too.

Hello All!

We have had a fabulous time on this beautiful island. A week was not nearly long enough! We highly recommend eating at the Beach House (book really early in advance) and Dukes Canoe Club. Tunnels and Hideaway beaches were amazing! Kauai guide book was right on about everything.

Thaks again for sharing your condo with us!

Aloooooooha!

Andy and I came (or returned to Kauai) here to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Weather perfect. The breeze thru the condo day and night make it comfortable. All the comforts of home in a tropical setting. Have 2 gecko friends on patio that never bother you but just go back and forth on railings. Rooster "wake up" calls each morning are a "kick"! Keoki's Paradise a definite. Try fresh fish Keoki Style. Stay away from Gaylords (rubber fish and dry fries). Drive to Waimea Canyon gorgeous and nice day trip. Gas at Costco $.17 cheaper than locals. Went to fruit market at stadium. Better fruit and veggies (taste and price) than local stands and markets. Beach House Restaurant (across the street) is a must. Make reservations the first night you arrive because it is usually a 5-7 day advance reservation needed. You won't regret it. Best reservations at 6:30 sunset is spectacular! Take yur camera and have waiter take pictures.
Overall quick 7 days. Great place. Definite place to return to.

Your condo is amazing. We are celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Kauai and it is our 1st real vacation together other than Las Vegas or camping. Rob found your wonderful place on the internet and although I am always telling my teen age son to be very skeptical about what or who is at the other side of the internet, Rob truly found a most wonderful treasure in #106. The location - the layout - the breeze that flows thru from the ocean. It is beautiful and perfect as a retreat. We've had the most wonderful time and appreciated this as our home base.
Rob is a great cook and we ate most meals in with him loving the fish market and open fruit and veg markets. The tree tunnel - the beaches, the island was so wonderful we are sad to be leaving today.
The book in the condo has a map to treasures found all the way across the island and I think we found almost all of them. All were breathtaking and a delight.
My favorite part of the trip was day 1 snorkeling - we saw and swam with a Sea Turtle. Everything far exceeded our expectations. It has been magical like a dream come true.

Like everyone else in this book, we have had a fabulous time out here! This condo is in a great location, wonderful snorkeling at the (rocky) beach across the street. We came out here to see a friend get married and decided to come a week early and experience Kauai. I have already convinced the guys tht took us on our catamaran tour to hire us so we can stay! If only the logistics allowed! If you want to do a catamaran tour, we highly recommend HoloHolo Charters. There are 2 tours they offer, the 7 hour one that includes the Forbidden Island, Niihau, or a 5 hour one of just the NaPali Coast. Much to my initial dismay, Jason wanted to do the 7 hour tour that left at 6 AM! For a serious night owl, that sounds like torture, but it was well worth it. We snorkeled at Niihau and saw a Monk Seal. Great crew, great food & drinks, wonderful information.
If you are a scuba diver, there are a ton of shops to choose from. We tried Seasport divers (right around the corner) our first day. The dives were pretty good, our guide was great about showing us things down below, and a DVD is available to purchase since he takes a video of the whole dive. Our next dive, we tried Bubbles Below which is not run out of a shop, they just meet you at the doc and go! If you prefer less "fluff" and prefer more of a "let's just go dive" atmosphere, we thought they were the way to go. Linda, our dive guide, is just madly in love with diving, marine life and just the ocean in general. Her enthusiasm made for a very enjoyable dive!
We bought groceries once but ended up mostly eating out. I'm in love with Shrimp Station in Waimea, Jason loves the Beach House (probably because it is right across the street and beautiful!!).
Thanks so much for this wonderful condo! We had a blast, and hope the rest of the guests here do too.

Aloha,

We had a wonderful time here celebrating our 20th anniversary. Off to the Big Island today. Your condo is great, well equipped, location, clean, and quiet. It would be nice if parking slots were numbered/assigned. We pretty well toured the entire coast line from the north park area and beach and southwest to the Canyon. Great views and beaches.
We bought groceries at Big Save and fixed breakfast and sandwiches for our daily trips. We ate at the Brick Oven Pizza. Very good. Celebrated our anniversary at the Beach House Restaurant at sun down - perfect!! Forget about Duane's Char Brol for burgers. Looking forward to a return trip for sure.

We had a fabulous vacation celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. The condo is very nice - we noticed how quiet the bedroom is. We appreciated the beach towels, cooler, beach chairs and kitchen items. And Stereo!
Highlights of our trip were visiting the National Tropical Botanical Garden, iking Kihili Ridge, hiking the beach from the Hyatt to the Gillian House and beyond, snorkeling, golfing, and laying on the beach reading books. We had sunny beautifuyl perfect weather the entire time!

Aloha,

Awesome condo. I am ready to move here. Anyway, had a great time - suggest going to a luau away from big hotels - too commercialized. If it's bad weather here, drive up North.
Food was great and I agree (we) agree with whoever wrote do not eat at Brennecke's. Food was not worth the $$$$. Hope to return next year.
Thanks for the great condo and location!

Thanks for the lovely, comfortable condo on beautiful Kauai!!
First of all my husband said be sure to mention how nice it was to have a few things to use in the kitchen. He cooked a lovely dinner one evening and it made it so much easier. And the location is so perfect!!
We enjoyed Smiths' Luau. I had pictures of 2 Smith boys from 40 years ago and they loved seeing them. Komiko still does lots there, and we talked with his mom and aunt too. A sweet experience.
So again thanks for all the comforts, it was such a pleasure to be here!

I found peoples suggestions in this book really helpful. We ate at the Beach House twice. If you ust stroll on over about a half hour before sunset you can get the best seat in the bar. Keokis Paradise and Brenneckes were both good too. Shopping was great at the Hawaiian Trading Post at the Spouting Horn and at Whalers General Store at the Poipu Shopping Village.
Now some of our own discoveries! Our Island Helicopters tour was fantastic, as was our boat trip up the Napali coast with Kauaifun Tours. Captain Gregg splits his time between here and very interesting jobs for the Discovery Channel. He loves to tell stories, so be sure to ask. Unlike most of the bigger boats that go up the coast, Gress takes his boat under waterfalls and into sea caves!
Also try Savage Shrimp - the truck is parked near the intersection of Kawai & Poipu Roads.
I really enjoyed shopping for grat tropical clothing at the funky store on the way East out of Waimea. Hilo Hatties in Lihue was not nearly as good. We enjoyed many beaches, but the Beach House beach is the best.
We had great food at the Casa Blanca Bar & Grill and at the Plantation Gardens Restaurant. (Check out the aloa, cactus and amazing orchids). We ate between 5:30 and 6:00 everyday when it was less busy and much quieter.
We loved the location here and the condo was very comfortable.

Well, this is exactly what we needed. It is truly paradise. The condo was wonderful with great weather. We do believe South Side is the most relaxing. Met some great other couples also. Thursday we went to Oahu for the day and could not wait to get back to Kauai. Going to dinner at the Beach House and then to "The Point" to listen to a Surf Band. Sat off to the Big Island on business.

Having a great time. After our little delay this spring, we finally are here. Condo is great just what we needed. A week just isn't enough. Helicopter tour with Harter was awesome, doors off is the way to go. Sunset dinner cruise with Blue Dolphine we say turtles, seals, dolphins, and the beautiful coast. Jim went golfing twice - loved Poipu Bay, best golf ever. I went to the Hideaway spa for a day of pampering - will be back soon! Left an umbrella and some mats. They came in handy at Tunnels Beach.

We've had a fantastic time thus far! We're on our way to the North Shore for a few days and then it's back to PK's! We're going to be in hyour #307 at that point. First day was rainy and overcast so we drove west to PoliHali Beach which was phenomenal. Very hot. Bring a beach umbrella! (And plenty of drinks). Waimea Canyon was magnificent. We stopped at the 14-15 mile marker and hiked the Black Pipe Trail to the waterfall. The water was refreshingly cool. It was about 2.5 hours hiking round trip. We loved it! Thanks for being home away from home!

Mahalo for your part in making our dream trip to Hawaii so memorable. This is our 35th anniversary splurge - celebrated a couple of months after the event.
On Kauai we especially enjoyed the Island Helicopters tour over the island. We would definitely recommend this company. We were seated in front with the pilot for truly awesome views.
We took advantage of the Beach House sunset views for free from the sea wall - and were not the only ones.

Mahalo for having us back again!

We arrived today after spending 7 days in Princeville at our timeshare. Beautiful weather here in Poipu. Dinner Saturday night at Keoki's Paradise ~ food pretty good - lava flows excellent ~ then on for a walk and back to Keoki's for Hula Pie. Sunday a day at Baby Beach - then I "Rhonda" got brave and decided to snorkel so off to Snorkel Bob's for gear. My first time snorkeling and had way to much fun. Tonight dinner at Roy's and Monday night "Smith's Luau". We went down to the trading post with hopes of again purchasing a Ni'ihau shell lei but they close on Sundays - we'll try Monday. I believe these to be authentically made in Ni'ihau, representing one of the last truly Hawaiian art forms.

We arrived today after spending 7 days in Princeville Thank you once again for a wonderful stay in Kauai.

This has been our first visit to both the island and the Prince Kuhio Resort. My mother and I came here on a mother - daughter trip to visit some of our family (from Sacramento, CA) who was also visiting Kauai but staying at the neighboring Lawai Beach Resort. We both has a blast staying here and visiting the beautiful island of Kauai. Some of the best restaurants that we found and enjoyed were the Popup Tropical Burgers and More - a great little cafe with great food, great atmosphere and even greater prices and Keoki's Paradise - an awesome restaurant with excellent food for affordable prices and great atmosphere, perfect for couples!

There was one restaurant that we went to but left shortly due to lack of menu items, sky high prices, and okay atmosphere - The Poipu Beach Broiler. We unfortunately didn't have the change to make it to the Beach House Restaurant because we didn't make our reservations at least 3 days in advance!

As for attractions, the 4x4 Movie Tour was awesome! You visited so many cool places from the Coco Palms Resort where "Blue Hawaii" was filmed to interior mountains of Kauai where all 3 Jurassic Park movies and Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Arc were filmed. This attraction was a blast but very bumpy (hence 4x4). Not for people who get car sick, have back problems, or don't like bumpy movement. Other than that a must-do! Another must-do is attending a luau. I would strongly suggest the Sheraton Resort's Luau. This luau was fun, beautiful, and the only luau on the beach! We had a great time there and the food and entertainment was excellent.

Well, I hope this will help new arrivals to the island out a little bit on places to go and eat. On behalf of my mother and I we would like to thank you for allowing us to stay at your home while we visit this beautiful island. We will most definitely be coming back to visit in the future. Aloha and Mahalo!

Our second stay at this great condo. This place has been a warm, dry and safe place of shelter for us during a time of extreme weather. The flash flood warnings, a dam break, road closures and of course torrential rains have reminded us of the phenomenal power and mystique of the ocean and nature in this beautiful tropical region. The spirit and soul of these islands are entwined with a history of weather, of the ocean and nature, which demands our respect. We have had quite an experience in the last couple of days but have found ourselves even more inspired and in love with the raw, powerful beauty of this place. We ill definitely be back. Kaua'i has touched us.

Our fourth trip to Kauai. Our first stay in Poipu as we've always stayed in Princeville. This is a beautiful spot and a comfortable condo. We enjoyed this location and the ease to many spots on this side of the island. We had a stretch of rainy weather but that didn't keep us from having a wonderful time. The few good days made up for the rainy weather. Our stay was enjoyable and relaxing.

We love the beaches. We traveled the entire island for the 3rd time as we never tire of its beauty. Spend several days at the beaches - Salt Pond Beach was nice. We also like the North Shore.

Aloha!

We came to Kauai for our 5 year anniversary and had a romantic and fun-filled adventure.

We began our time on a practical note - we got a Safeway card and stocked up at Safeway for a week of groceries - we saved $30 just with the card. We appreciated the updated and cook-friendly kitchen. We ate in for most meals but stopped at the health food store in Hanalei for an organic salad bar - yum! Also, in tghe same town we had a huge pile of rice, chicken & pork for $8 at Hanalei Mixed Plate!!!

We snorkeled all over but really liked Poipu the best. We began each day by jogging as the sun was rising for a few miles along the beach.

We spent a day kayaking the Wailua River to the Secret Falls where we had a picnic (pack a suit, water shoes and a windbreaker). Definitely worth it - must! another exciting trip is to Queen's Bath, even if the tide is coming in and it's raining you have to hike down to it and watch the ocean crash against the rocks - fun and scary (bring water shoes).

The condo was perfect - we'll be back for sure. Going to the Beach House restaurant tomorrow - sounds like we won't be disappointed.

Thanks for the great accommodations!

What a fantastic island - truly the garden isle. We've really enjoyed the snorkeling at the Beach House beach. So nice to have it so close. I also enjoyed swimming at the condo pool. We've toured the entire island during our week and have been so impressed with its diverse beauty. The condo is equipped with almost all the necessities - a dish washer luxury we would like. It's been a fantastic time in Kauai.

Also our last night we had dinner reservation at the Beach House at 6:15p - what a perfect sunset with the green flash at the end! The meal was delicious - we loved it - perfect ending!

We had a great time relaxing, catching up on good conversation and seeing the sights that make you stop breathing. Everything was great. Thanks for providing this place for us.

Thanks

Aloha Jack, Dorinda, & future guests,

This is a great condo! Had an excellent time and enjoyed all the facilities/accommodations of this place. Kauai is the best island of all Hawaii.

Came here with friends and family to see my daughter and son-in-law get married on "Baby Beach" on Sat Jan 7th. Beautiful wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better day.

Highly recommend the Beach House restaurant for good food and seeing the sunset. Great snorkeling next to the restaurant. Saw several whales breaching on a boat tour while cruising to the Napoli Coasty.

Best luau is at the Smith's family. Take a boat tour to see the Fern Grotto. Gorgeous!!

Waimea Canyon is breath taking. The drive around the whole island is magnificent. Highway 50 to 56. Be aware of afternoon traffic. Check out Wailua and Opaeka Falls. Great shopping for souvenirs at the Coconut Market Place near Wailua. Best beaches: Poipu, Salt Pond Beach, Barking sands and Hanalei Bay.

Had a great time. Hate to leave. Will come back again. Thanks for everything.

Mahalo,
