Nice Condo
Sherri W. from Durant, OK recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in November, 2017
First of all, this condo is beautiful. We did feel a little misled by the description stating it was in the ocean front building A. (our view was the parking lot). The overall complex was very nice and the pool was great. The condo upgrades were first class. The kitchen was to die for but then we found the microwave and coffee maker didn't work and the refrigerator didn't have an icemaker. We did email ReMax but it was a full day before we heard back from them. They did bring replacements. The furnishings are beautiful but the sofa is in need of better cushions. You feel like your sitting on the sleep sofa frame. Overall, we really enjoyed the condo.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It is feedback from our customers that help us better our services. We're sorry to hear that you felt misled by a description, we did check our website and couldn't find that verbiage any where. In fact, it states "Garden View". we're not saying it isn't true, only that if you provide the link for where you saw the verbiage it would help us in correcting the information. Unfortunately, the microwave did expire after 11 years of service and a new one was purchased and a temporary one was required until the new one arrives. The refrigerator was repaired on the first available date of the appliance companies schedule, unfortunately this is not something we could use in house maintenance for, so we were subject to their availability. We will work with the owners in updating their cushions for future guest. Our team should have communicated better with you, so that you knew we were working diligently to correct your concerns during your stay. It is our goal to make sure every guest enjoys their stay and has a positive memorable experience. We're glad to hear although these items occurred you were still able to enjoy your stay at the Waipouli Beach Resort A303.

Staying at Waipouli in May 2017

The Beach Resort with ist`s wonderfull pool-side is a perfectplace for families especially with children.There are 4 gas-grills, so you can make your own meal.The beach is not comfortable.There are many rocks and corrals in the water, so swimming is extremly bad.
Great Condo!

My family and I stayed at this condo from 12/26/16-1/7/17. The condo was wonderful for my husband, myself and our 3 daughters (ages 4, 9 and 14). Everything was great, beds were comfortable, we cooked meals often and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The only complaint I have is the couch. It NEEDS to be replaced. It is old, stained and even has a "smell" to it. I sprayed it down with Febreeze but didn't like sitting on it. My husband and kids had no problem at all with it, but it gagged me. Aside from the couch all the other furnishings were very nice. I wouldn't let the couch sway you about renting this unit, however. I would rent this again same unit again. There is only a view of the parking lot (no ocean or pool) but I knew this when booking. I would highly recommend this rental property the pool area is fabulous for kids.

We would recommend the resort - but not A303.
A guest from Saskatoon, SK does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 11 days in April, 2016
We would recommend this resort (great location, and great restaurant, pools and hot tubs), but would not recommend Unit A303 because of the management staff (REMAX) taking care of it. We wasted too much of our vacation time trying to get ahold of someone at Remax and then dealing with all the problems in the condo. Remax continued to give us the run around throughout our stay. Someone from Remax who returned one of our voicemail messages actually said ?that we should call someone else at Remax because ? SHE was on holidays!There were many issues we had to deal with (7 lightbulbs throughout the condo were burnt out, the safe, icemaker and one of the dishwashers did not work) and halfway through our stay, they changed the code on the door and locked us out of the condo. We were stranded in the hallway for a half hour with a crying baby needing a nap. This meant we wasted even more of our holiday time running down to the guest services office and trying to resolve this problem.Eventually someone did show up and changed some of the lightbulbs. In the process of changing the bulb in the ceiling fan they did something to it so the fan no longer worked on the switch. The Safe and dishwasher were never repaired.The under counter lights in the (dark) kitchen were never repaired even though he told us ?he would be back tomorrow?.The other issue was that there wasn?t enough cutlery so you couldn?t leave them in the dishwasher. You always had to wash them by hand so you would have them for the next meal. The top dishwasher did not work, so we also had to wash the glasses and cups by hand. Another ?must have? for any kitchen that was missing, was a splatter cover for the microwave. As for activities, we spent a lot of time in the pool and hot tubs. We also enjoyed the tube ride down the river, the Fern Grotto boat ride and even though it?s 90 minutes away, it was worth driving to see the Waimea Canyon.

Kauai trip 2016
Lori S. from Leechburg, PA recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in January, 2016
The room was exactly as described on-line, had all the necessary amenities and was perfect. The air conditioning could have gotten the condo a little colder....seemed muggy at night. But all in all our stay there was wonderful.
2nd great stay at unit A303
A guest from Burnaby, BC recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in March, 2015
This is our 2nd great stay at A303, plus a competitive rate for this unit, however my rate was higher on my second visit. The view may not be of the ocean or pool, but you do see greenery and a small mountain view, the reduced rate is well worth the view. There is no road or parking noise. The sofa bed to sleep on is terrible, it would only be suitable for a light weight child for a night or 2, however the unit has 2 double beds plus a king. The sofa itself is aging and the chair in the living room is also getting old. The outside furniture is in bad condition as the plastic weave is coming undone and you have to put towels on the chairs to sit on them, the table has plastic pieces coming out as well. The unit is very clean, well stocked , close to the pool and Angela at Remax is prompt and pleasant to deal with. We used the safe in the unit and it did not work, all our belongings were stuck inside, this was definitely an inconvenience. We were told after the fact that we should not have used it. I would recommend putting a note on the safe for future guests. Overall I would recommend this unit!!

Great place to stay! Well worth the price!
Karen R. from YAKIMA, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 9 days in December, 2013
We absolutely loved our stay at this condo. All of the necessary essentials were provided (hand soap, dish soap, laundry soap,TP, garbage bags, paper towels). All we needed to bring was our shampoo and conditioner. The closet contained several useful beach items (chairs, boogie boards, umbrella, lifejacket, sand toys). The closet also contained leftovers from previous guests (sunscreen, shampoo, bath soap), which we used a few items of, and left a few of our own. The place was clean, and well-maintained. There were six of us, and the layout was just fine for this many people. My 10-year-old son slept on the couch, and was happy with that. Though it did fold out into a bed, he actually preferred to sleep just on the couch as he thought that was more comfortable. The layout of having one bedroom on either side of the kitchen/living room area provided my husband and I adequate privacy during our stay. The girls also enjoyed their privacy as well. The kids loved the pool, lazy river, waterfalls, slides, hot tubs, sand bottom pool, etc. They want to go back next Christmas! The south side of the island was an easy drive (~45 minutes), and we preferred this location as there weren't as many people in this area. The only thing to be aware of is the traffic on 51/56. It can get locked up at specific times during the day. We just made an attempt to avoid those times and didn't actually run into any trouble with us. Overall a great facility and great place to stay. We had contact with a representative from Remax at the beginning and end of our stay, and she was always very pleasant with us and helpful! Can't wait to come back someday!

Quite Satisfied
Robert T. from Beaverton, OR recommends this property.
Stayed for 12 days in July, 2013
We were thoroughly satisfied with our rental. The price, as tied to the location, was the key influencing factor initially, and it was well worth it, particularly when comparing to other rentals in the same complex. If you do your research, you will find that you can identify, with solid reliability, the location of your condo. In our case, the "A" designation tells you that you are away from the highway and other related crowd noise and close to the beach. The room designation, odd or even, will tell you which side of the building you are on. Although we faced the parking lot (odd number), we were content, because we could also still hear the ocean surf just on the other side of the complex, and did not endure street traffic.My only complaint was the internet connection speed, which was low (late 1990s standards). If there is an option for stronger wifi, even at additional cost, it should be provided as an option. And, don't rely on your 4G phone, as a backup option, especially if your service is T-Mobile. There was also construction and a construction crew that liked a loud radio across from us, but that would likely be short-term, and it didn't really impact us very much.

A303-- a satisfactory place to stay
A guest from Belview, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 9 days in January, 2013
The vacation rental was satisfactory. We were aware that there is no maid service during our stay so we were expecting at least a vacuum cleaner so we can at least tidy up.. there wasn't. We had to call the housekeeper and the charge was 26 dollars for a "tidy cleaning"(vacuum cleaning). But the housekeeper was nice enough to come and waved the charge--that was very nice of her. The kitchen cutlery were all dull-- needs to be sharpened or needs new ones, pots and pans are all stainless steel so you can't really cook pancakes or eggs unless you use too much oil. The view is the parking lot--if you don't mind it. Overall--a satisfactory place to stay, central to everything, grocery right across the street, place is clean, grounds excellent, the whole complex is quiet considering the location of our unit--it is still peaceful, pool excellent especially for kids, beach area nice--current a little strong. I still would recommend this property to a friend even if I have some negative comments. We had a wonderful time overall.

Very nice unit, but not a great view
A guest from El Segundo, CA does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 8 days in August, 2012
We enjoyed our stay in this unit. The place was very nice with high quality furnishings. The overall complex is great for kids with a great swimming pool, hot tubs, and water slides. My kids loved it. The disadvantages are that beach here is not good for swimming, the view of the complex was described as a mountain view, but you are really looking at the building next door and a parking lot, and the kitchen had high quality appliances, but was not well-equipped if you really liked to cook (e.g., it had only a tiny cutting board, knives that could not cut, and no nonstick pans).
