Great location to many popular and good restaurants. Close to the airport. Our unit was perfect for a family of 6. Having TWO bathrooms is such a luxury! The a/c worked well. We utilized the washer/dryer. Great size bathrooms with large countertops. The beds were extremely comfortable. Kitchen was completely functional. The pool was huge and the temperature just right! We would definitely stay here again!!!

Convenient and comfortable stay. Equipped with beach needs, easy access and beautiful surroundings. Only one concern was the bath room fan was very noisy and was connected to the light so we couldn't even turn it off. That was the only problem we ran into.

We rented this Apt (E56) through Airbnb and we were very satisfied. The place was charming and very clean. It was centrally located with shops and restaurants at walking distance. The beach is also right across the road from Banyan Harbor. We would definitely stay at this Apt.(E56) again. We were with other family who also stayed at Banyan harbor who weren’t as happy with their rental.

We will definitely be renting this unit again! Perfect for a family especially with small kids. Spacious 2 bedrooms with extremely comfortable beds. Having 2 bathrooms was a luxury! Large countertops and with tubs! Functional kitchen. Washer & dryer. Clean! Great garden view right outside your back door. Parking was convenient. Ground floor unit makes it easy with luggage. The pool was huge and the perfect temperature. 2 min drive to many great restaurants. Will definitely rent this unit again!!

Quiet place but felt misled
It was a great location being in Lihue. The grounds were very quiet, which I appreciated. There was a strong smell of mildew that gave me a headache the first few days of the stay until I adjusted. I suspect the AC units need a good cleaning. It's a good thing we didn't spend much time in the unit. The unit also needs a good deep cleaning. Seeing the layer of dust on the light fixtures above the kitchen countertop gave me the ick. I appreciated having the beach chairs, but wish the cooler was a little bigger. The washer and dryer are very small, and we had to run the dryer twice for each load to get items dry all the way. For the money, We came across a total of 3 cockroaches in the unit throughout our stay. They were immobilized but still alive, so I assume they are being treated for. We also came across a very large wolf spider that was very much alive. We felt like the photos were misleading and that the unit would be in better condition based on the photos in the listing. We will stay elsewhere next time. The staff were very nice, and it was comforting to see the security guy making himself visible all hours of the day.

Banyan Harbor #E56 - 2 Bedroom Condo ground floor, 2 bedroom, 2 bath When I return to Kauai I will definitely stay in this unit if it is available. My family stayed here for a family event. We rented 5 units in the complex – This unit was the best of the 5. This unit has three (3) window A/C and ceiling fans- in living area in each bedroom. This was a BIG plus as it was very hot while we were there. The other units did not have this many A/Cs. This is a corner unit and has 3 patios making it feel more open. The other units did not have 3 patios. This unit has a jungle lush back yard with chickens walking around which I really enjoyed. Other units did not have this backyard.I booked with Garden Isle others booked through Vrbo. They paid substantially more because of the Vrbo fees. Garden Isle offered free early check-in, which was awesome after a 6 hour flight. The Vrbo units, early check in was not an option. One that had the option was an additional $100 for early check in fee.The sliding door lock stopped working, I made a call to Garden Isle and it was fixed immediately. Sheets were white and clean. Tile floor easy to sweep. Very clean and simple. Bathtubs in both bathrooms. Wifi, washer and dryer, beach chairs.Perfect location so much to do. We had the BEST time... GREAT unit.
Great location. Proximity to a beach and restaurants are all within walking distance. We liked that it was in the lower SE part of the island half way to the north shore and half way to the west shore.

Reviewer Comments:
Though the unit was clean and adequate, it was not as close to the beach as advertised. Our upstairs neighbors were rude and loud throughout 3 nights of our stay with friends who were less happy than we. Too many workers and equipment were parked near our unit. The management was polite and mostly helpful even though our unit was privately owned.
We stayed here for a week and it was great! It's a short walk to multiple restraints, stores, the beach, and a great local gym. Plenty of parking when we stayed. Would recommend.
Banyan Harbor had everything we needed for a lovely Kauai vacation - the condo is as advertised with a wonderful pool and a great location near the airport and town of Lihue. It was an easy home base for us to travel all around the island. Restaurants, shops, a local beach were within walking distance and we could see cruise ships come and go. It was a very comfortable home base for us, quiet, a lovely garden landscape off the lanai, our own flock of the famous chickens on the island. We very much enjoyed our visit!
