Waipouli Beach Resorts & Spa Kauai by OUTRIGGER

Waipouli Beach Resorts & Spa Kauai by OUTRIGGER

8/10 Good
"Thought the location was fantastic- very central- easy to get to the north and to the south parts of the Island. Loved having a Safeway and shopping center across the street, and being so close to Kapaā€™a and so many restaurants. Loved our oceanfront condo. Nicely laid out two bedroom space with a decent sized kitchen, and all the amenities. Having three toilets for 5 people was helpful. Loved having a washer and dryer. The condo was clean and well maintained. Thought the pool could have been better maintained. One of the adult hot tubs was often just lukewarm to even chilly, and the jets didnā€™t seem to work; so everyone was crowded into the other adult hot tub. Our Britta water pitcher needed a new filter, but we were told that was up to the owner at the front desk- we were not sure how to get a hold of an owner, as it was through Expedia. The restaurant and bar were unfortunately closed due to the recent hurricane, so it would have been nice to have had that open, but that is no oneā€™s fault obviously. The beach is pretty, but not very swimmable; nice to read a book at. All in all, really liked our stay here, and would stay here again. Well suited for a family or group of friends."
