The rooms are large enough for my wife and I. The kitchen and bathrooms are fine (large clean). The bed and pull down bead in the living room was comfortable for sleeping but the rest of the furniture was uncomfortable. The pool is nice (just a fairly long walk from our unit), barbeques clean. We could see the ocean if... More

This si a conveniently located condo resort on ocean front Kapa'a. Built in the '70s but well kept. You'll be overrun with telephone calls and solicitations by management for various "adventures" for which they get a 20% commission but once you let them know you are not interested, they leave you alone. Pay for internet service in the room @... More

We stayed at Pono Kai five nights during the last week in April. After reading Trip Advisor reviews, we were concerned about noise, so requested an ocean front, upper floor unit. Since we were guests at a friends' timeshare, only a first-floor, ocean view was available. But, as it turned out, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo was spacious,... More

We have stayed at the Pono Kai several times in past years. The location of the property is perfect, it's centrally located making it easy to get to either side of the island. The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. There are plenty activities right at the resort; putting green, bocce ball, tennis, basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, croquet, pool, hot...

The unit was clean and bug-free. Thank God there was a plunger in the room. I needed it every day. The air conditioning has an infernal control system that shuts down most days at midnight and is a real problem to re-start. When it works, it's fine. Most pool lounge chairs are white plastic and could double as torture devices... More

We went with friends on their timeshare to Pono Kai. It was our first time in Kauai. I agree with other reviewers that this resort would not have been as "perfect" if we hadn't been oceanside. Many of the units do not have ocean views. However, we had a room with a small balcony facing the ocean. It was perfect... More

We stayed at the Pono Kai in January this year, and absolutely loved it! We had a 1 bedroom suite in the G building, facing the ocean. The suite was very large with a good kitchen and a nice bathroom. The whole building had been recently renovated, and it was a very nice place to stay. There is an 11... More

This resort might have been top of the line 20 years ago but now it is a bit run-down. The kindness of the front desk staff is still there, though. They are lovely and will allow for early check-in and late check-out if available. There is also a hospitality room for you to take a shower or store your food... More

Bathroom dated and pull out couch torture to sleep on. Hey is near the closed beach! Lots of stuff in waking distance. Staff has a chip on their shoulders if your NOT Hawiian. Like I was there to steal their land! Staff needs customer relation seminar. Grounds were nice as was pool.
