So to clarify I had an incredible room and wonderful service from Kauai Exclusive Management. They were so helpful and made sure my stay there was perfect. However, the general manager at Waipouli Beach Resort (which has nothing to do with the room I got from KEM) is the worst person on the face of the planet and NEEDS to be fired immediately. I brought over 40 people to this property and rented out the restaurant to have my wedding there this past weekend. My family pitched in to built my wife and I a canopy to get married under with permission from the resort. The day after it was built, the morning of my wedding, the general manager ordered the workers to demolish the canopy and not return the hand made rope to us. He asked the workers if they knew what it was for and when they told him it was for a wedding and not built by a homeless person he instructed them to break it down. I then tried to get ahold of the GM but he refused to answer my phone calls or return them. Instead he just called the maintenance man and instructed him to keep the rope no matter what. This guy is a jerk and because of it I will NEVER stay at Waipouli again. I brought in tens of thousands of dollars to this resort and I was treated like garbage. We did nothing wrong and had permission to build the canopy and for the GM to not even speak to me before ordering it be destroyed and the. Telling his workers to steal our rope is out right disgraceful. His name is Jeffrey and he is the worst human on the planet. I hope anyone else thinking about using this resort finds a different place to go to.

Beautiful unit with a beautiful view. Better even than the pictures.
Not in the control of the property managers (obviously)-- it was just a bummer that the weather was overcast, cool, and windy almost the whole week we were there. We will just have to come back another time-- we'd definitely stay at this property/unit again.

We booked G301 for a post-Christmas/New Years Holiday. Wow. What a fantastic unit! Yes, there seemed to be a slate of maintenance problems, but every one of them was fixed immediately. The garbage disposal, dishwasher and dryer all needed repair/replacement and the maintenance team addressed the issue without us having to be there. The condo is HUGE and the lanai and view are beautiful. The only negative is that we could never get the wifi to work. I cannot say enough good things about this unit!

Wonderful beach, unpeded view and access. Large, comfortable condo, 2 masters w/ own baths, well equipped kitchen. Beds are on the soft side, so not good for people needing firm. Main lanai overlooking parking, but huge windows that open in living/dining area to sit in front of and enjoy the scene. 3rd floor location w/ elevator, is high enough for a better view. Beautiful pool and well equiped exercise room w/ televisions. Instructions for where the DVD player is and how to use (master bedroom), a few glitches with WIFI.

Villa was clean, well stocked, and in a quiet private location. Amazing views! I would note that the ocean views from the living and dining rooms are breathtaking but there is no outside balcony across the front of these areas for a full ocean view. There is a partial ocean view and mountain view from the balconies off the kitchen and bedrooms. The pool area is nice and the oasis restaurant was delicious. Staff at pool and restaurant very friendly. Can't wait to return!

G301 was a perfect unit for us. Corner unit with full ocean views. No pool or restaurant noise. The condo was clean, comfortable and fully stocked with kitchen items, linens, toilet paper, paper towels... we would definitely stay here again. Town of Kapaa is great for quick bites and stocking up on groceries. Just 30-40 minute drives to get to north side and south side of island. The beach front in front of complex also a great spot to relax..not crowded at all. The pool was a favorite spot for the kids.

We rented out 2 units. The ones we had each had 2 separate bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. These condo units were excellent. The view and location were perfect for us. We could quickly go to Foodland or Safeway for food and beverages. The Lanai's were large enough to accommodate all of us for meals and just relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed these units. The views were so relaxing and enjoyable. The Coconut Coast trail was also very close for running and walking. It was a perfect way to celebrate our 40th Anniversary with our family.

We were married in Kauai in December 2016. Friends and family (12) stayed at the resort in 3 units at Waipouli. Although each unit was in a different building - everyone was extremely happy with accommodations and amazing view and service. The pools and hot tubs were wonderful and clean and not overcrowded. Location of the resort on Kauai is convenient to reach other parts of the island. Stores and shopping and great restaurants within walking. Views of the beach, sunrises and sounds of the surf amazing. All 12 of us agreed we wouldn't stay anywhere else. Can't wait to return to this beautiful Island!!

The unit had to be one of the best in the complex. Large balconies with great views of the ocean and The Sleeping Giant. Very specious and equipped kitchen. The only negative I saw was the combination to get into the pool area and fitness room seemed to be a pain for several people. I will be back again as soon as I can.

We stayed in unit G301. Very quiet unit with a great balcony and wonderful views from the balcony and interior of the unit as well. Great build quality as well. In addition the management company offered wonderful service as well with helping with restaurant suggestions, booking excursions for me, and allowing an earlier checkin. Would 100% stay here again and recommend to all.

We had an amazing time. The place was great. I am a manager and like to know when things can be improved so here they are: Kitchen was well equipped- knives were very dull-no sharpener. In 7 days the 3rd fl hallway had a pile of sand that was never vacuumed up. There were many lights out in and around the pool. Dark and unsafe. Master bath toilet had not been cleaned before our stay so by the time we left there was a ring at the water line. No brush to clean it. Just some nit picking really. But walk the pool area at night, see how dark it is and how many lights are out in the pool. There was a fire alarm while we were there. We evacuated. Since there is no staff on-site after the restaurant closes, when the alarm finally turned off, no one knew if they should return to rooms or not. For that size facility- one employee on duty 24-7 should be there. Last, but not least those BBQs need to GO!. I burnt my hands on the knobs. They were literally sizzling hot! Left my finger tips on them hot. Told the guard, told the towel check out attendant- they knew about it! Get some new BBQs before someone gets really hurt. We and all guests that go to the beach bring a lot of sand into your plumbing. There are no foot wash's or outdoor showers to get rid of sand. Couple safety concerns, couple nit picky stuff. We had a great time! Thanks

This unit was wonderful. We spent 5 nights and loved it. Loved being right across the street from Safeway and Starbucks. The beach is not great die swimming but great for just viewing the ocean. The grounds are very clean and well maintained. The pool area is big and the lazy river is fun. Our family loved it. Easy to find Lounge chairs every day. We also rented bikes from the spa downstairs and that was a fun easy ride to Kealia beach. The fitness center is great as well.

This resort was the best. We found the location between princeville and Waimea canyon convenient. Safeway directly across street made getting basic essentials so easy. The small town of Kaapa was within walking distance we enjoyed it. The condo was perfect location beach and mountain view. The resort and grounds breathtaking. Would absolutely recommend to others and we would stay again. Very spacious and well equipped condo especially for higher end tastes.

We stay in condos across the U.S. and were very pleased with this unit's size, layout of indoor and outdoor space and grandeur of furnishings. The kitchen knives were horribly dull (a common problem), and some of the nonstick cookware should be retired, but these are small issues in the scheme of things. We needed an extra parking pass for a 2nd car, and called the security office twice and left messages with no reply. I spoke to a security staff member who was perplexed, and wondered if the email had the correct number. The staff at Kauai Exclusive is friendly and attentive, and Sonja Keale our concierge is fantastic!!!

This corner unit faces east and south and has by far the largest lanai in the resort. The unit is spacious and very well equipped and organized, everything in its place with helpful notes on the operation of equipment, except it was not clear where to dispose of garbage and recycling. The water park in the centre of the resort is amazing and great for families wanting to relax at the resort. Safeway and Foodland just across the street was very convenient. Kauai Exclusive Management was helpful, thorough and reliable in all pre-arrival services.

Excellent location. Unit is on the beach. Excellent views. Oasis Restaurant food was ok. Condo grounds are very well maintained. Pool area needs more lounge type chairs (people put towels and items on chairs to hold them all day and leave causing a shortage of lounge chairs). We noticed people took pool lounge chairs to beach. Had a small issue with the room but property management was very responsive and immediately took care of us. Condo was fairly clean, but windows needed to be washed. Couch, carpet and floors (socks got dirty from tile floor) need to be cleaned. Could not rate unit as "spotless". Unit will need a refresh in future. Fast wireless connection.

The unit was excellent. The furnishings and connected hotel were very well maintained and had nice amenities. The rooms in the condo were very spacious and the quality of the finishes were first class.

The condo is about half way between the north and south parts of the island so getting around is easy. Traffic right around the hotel is a little congested, but nothing major.

We had a problem with the dryer not working part way through our stay and the management company made arrangements in another empty unit for us to use that dryer. They were very accommodating.

I would highly recommend unit G301.

The unit was as it appeared online, and had very good views since it's a corner unit. It was a short distance from the parking lot to the elevator to the unit. The major negative is that the beach was not enjoyable- there was a large reef just offshore so swimming was very dangerous. Additionally, there were many Portuguese Man-o-war jellyfish all over the beach. If you like going straight from your condo to the sand, this is not the resort for you. However there is a very good beach up the road, just a 4-5 minute drive.

My husband, son, his new fiance and I spent the last 5 nights of our vacation in Unit G301. It was spacious and very well furnished. We had beautiful views of the ocean and mountains from the lanai and the ocean breezes were awesome. The central location of the property allowed us to explore the island easily and often. The entire property was well maintained and the pool area was great. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and family.

Another unit we had reserved dropped us and the management team gave us the option to rent G301 instead. At first we were disappointed until we arrived. The location was really private, great views of the ocean and in our opinion a much better location than where we were suppose to stay. Loved the layout and all the comfortable furniture. The kids absolutely loved the resort pools and so did we. I would highly recommend this particular unit. We loved our stay.

We loved unit G301! The views were amazing with the ocean right there on one side and lush mountains out the other. The quality of the unit and furnishings was top notch other than a couple minor issues (one of the screens was torn and the master Jacuzzi tub didn’t work). The pool with water slides was a hit with the kids and adults! Location on the island was great in that we could hit south or north beaches and sites in 30 or so minutes depending on the weather. One drawback was the beach right outside the unit, while nice, is really not swimmable as its very rocky. We paid more than we typically do for vacation accommodations and have no regrets, we loved our stay.

Cheers!

We came to Kauai during Christmas to celebrate our 25th Anniversary with our children. What a truly awesone way to end the year! This was our second trip to Waipouli (7/2007) and it was even better this time....mostly because of the unit. We think G301 or G401 could possibly be the best units in the entire complex. Our view was literally 270* with both ocean and mountain views from the rooms and expansive lanai. The midpoint location in Kapaa is perfect for all the island excursions that you need to do on Kauai. We highly recommend a Waimea Canyon excursion, Kalapaki beach next to Kauai Lagoons, and hiking the trail at Ke'e beach. Blue Dolphin tours provide unforgetable journeys. We did the Napali coastline snorkeling in July and whale watching sunset tour this time (seasonal). The unit itself is very comfortable and the 3rd bathroom made it much nicer for our family of 5. The kitchen was nice to be able to cook our own meals....eating out would be very time consuming AND expensive. There are 2 grocery stores across the street-we preferred Foodland. Enjoy your trip to the Garden Isle!

After spending 12 days at Waipouli Beach Resort I was relieved that I used Kauai Exclusive Management. Josh, Patrick, and Sherri are an a amazing professional vacation rental team. Every email, phone call, repair, question, and concerns were addressed immediately. The resort is about 15 minutes away from the airport. My gorgeous and immaculate condo, G301, had an unblocked private ocean view 150 feet from the beach! I had a gourmet kitchen with a huge private lanai. I loved the resort grounds, swimming pools, and Poi Pond. But there is more! Safeway, Starbucks, Longs, and a big health food store is across the street. Plus the location is the 1/2 point to Princeville and Poipu. Perfect great vacation. I loved it.

We loved the unit! My biggest complaint was the master bath. The toilet lid was very loose, the jets on the tub did not work, and before we figured that out we tried opening the window doors and the left panel didn't work properly so we had to maneuver to get it closed well enough and then kept it closed for the rest of our stay. The window and toilet weren't too much of an issue but the jets on the tub were a huge disappointment.

We stayed in G301 at the end of May/early June of 2013, the weather was quite humid, so we were delighted to have AC during the heat of the day (overhead fans nice at night). Easy shopping across the street, 20 minute walk into Kapaa, 5 minute walk to bike rentals to bike the Kauai Bike Path (a must if you stay here). Very deluxe rental, just know that the beds are thick tempurpedic style mattresses, very different from our firm bed at home. Resort wifi had a weak signal, as did our phones, if that matters. We went to the restaurant on site, Oasis on the Beach, for dinner and brunch, and it was out of this world 5 out of 6 times, a fantastic farm to table restaurant oceanfront. The pool really is for children and sunbathers (barbequers in the evening). The Fitness Center was great, nice to have AC, all the equipment you need, in a nice location.

We were so pleased when we first walked into the unit...clean, immaculate, and inviting. The suite is well appointed with great amenities and a gourmet kitchen that we utilized a good portion of our trip.

Of course going to Hawaii is not about sitting in your condo, but getting out and enjoying the surroundings. That starts first at the Oasis on the Beach - the resort bar and restaurant. Vanessa and Joel were amazing at the bar and the live music added to the evening.

We can't wait to get back!

we stayed here on our honeymoon. we stayed in G301 which was an awesome room - 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, top-notch kitchen, balconies and great common area. The resort is great if you want something not too large (too many people), on the ocean, with pool/3 hot tubs, great restaurant, lots of places in walking distance (Papaya food market is like a whole foods and is 3 minutes across the street by foot).

a key here was that we rented through the guys at Kauai Exclusive Management. They are the agents for this unit and others at this property. they gave us a great price (for 5 nights) and when we had a minor problem they were on site and fixed it within the hour.

location is great in the middle of the island, everything you need is there (spa too) and with a sweet kitchen you can make your own meals (relaxing breakfast or grill dinner fish by the pool).

Unit has all top-of-the-line finishes and appliances; really just a fantastic place to spend the week in Kauai.
