Makahuena 5202 by Alekona Kauai: 2BR Pure Oceanfront Condo w AC

This condo was very nice and we appreciated the space for our family of 5. We were so busy seeing the beautiful Kauai sights that we didn't spend much time at our condo or in the pool but the resort was in a great location and the pool looked very clean. It was very windy (as predicted) on the point but so nice to look out at the ocean from the lanai. The only things keeping us from a 5-star review were the insects that constantly appeared in the sink area (no one's fault and they were nowhere else in the condo so it wasn't much of an issue - just not something we are used to) and the humidity in the condo despite the air conditioners in each bedroom. The 3rd bedroom felt especially damp. Also, there was beach gear in a closet but we didn't find it until the very end of our stay.

Staff was attentive to a few needs. One important improvement needed is the a/c in bedroom/living room. It would make a noise every 20 minutes or so which would be a problem for sleeping. Thankfully, nice and cool with trade winds so did not need.

This unit is in a great location with a beautiful view. It nicely accommodates a family with 3 adults and 2 young children.It is close to beaches, shopping and restaurants. The kitchen is well equipped and spacious. The air conditioning system is not working well and the one in the master bedroom was unusable. The shower in the master bathroom leaks as the shower door trim needs to be replaced. The check in/out process is easy.

Ideal location and perfect setup for a family of four. Lots of great additions like beach chairs, beach toys, cooler, beach umbrella. Management company was great to work with. Setup of the space was perfect. Kids loved the pool being right outside. Watched whales from the lanai. Amazing!

We'd stayed in this complex before, and so I knew what to expect. It's a nice place, with a good pool and comfortable rooms.
