The Neighborhood:

The condo is located at Pono Kai Resort in the historic town of Kapaa on Kauai. Kapaa offers a charming small-town feel, and the resort is within easy walking distance of local restaurants, boutiques, shops, and grocery stores. If you’re visiting on the first Saturday of the month, don’t miss the town’s lively event featuring live music, local crafts, and great food.



Bicycle rentals are conveniently located right next door to the resort, and you’ll be just minutes from popular ocean activities such as canoeing, kayaking, and surfing.



Explore some of Kauai’s most beautiful beaches, all within about a 30-minute drive, including Lydgate Beach Park, Kalapaki Beach, Kealia Beach, and Poipu Beach.



Just steps from the resort, you can walk, run, or bike along the scenic Ke Ala Hele Makalae as it winds along the Pacific coastline. This beloved trail has even been recognized in the Hall of Fame by the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy. A must-experience during your stay!



Getting Around:

Kapaʻa is centrally located on the east side of Kauaʻi, making it a convenient home base for exploring the island. While there are shops, restaurants, and beaches within walking or biking distance, we highly recommend renting a car to fully experience everything Kauaʻi has to offer.



The resort is about a 15-minute drive from Līhuʻe Airport, and easy access to Kuhio Highway allows you to explore both the North Shore (Princeville, Hanalei) and South Shore (Poʻipū) with ease. For a more local experience, the Ke Ala Hele Makalae coastal bike path runs right along the ocean and is perfect for walking, jogging, or biking.



Ride-sharing services and taxis are available but can be limited, especially in the evenings. If you prefer not to drive, there is also a local bus system, though routes and schedules may be less frequent.

My new favorite Kapaa location.

I was so impressed with the spacious Pono Kai property and maintenance. Nice landscaping, elevator, heated pool and HOT tub. Employees were all so friendly and polite. Everything worked in my CLEAN room. Friendly guests and owners. Large parking lot, but buildings spaced out over acres, so very quiet. I wish I had found the Pono Kai to rent during my entire 3 weeks, Saving transition days and service fees. Directly on bike path and ocean. I biked or walked every day...food trucks and downtown Kapaa.

Close to shopping and food trucks, well maintained grounds with walking paths to bike path and pool and hot tub was great. Only thing you have to get used to are the roosters that start crowing at around 5 am.
