About this property

Kauai Exclusive - Waipouli Beach Resort E401

The NUMBER ONE PLACE TO STAY ON THE EAST SHORE OF KAUAI IS

THE WAIPOULI BEACH RESORT.

Located in Kapaa, this World Class Resort has a central location with easy access to
everything that you will want to see and do. Plus, it provides a luxury experience with many opulent amenities for your enjoyment when you are not off seeing the sights of Kauai. E401 is a PENTHOUSE offering the privacy and quiet of having no neighbors on any side. High ceilings in every room and a vaulted ceiling in the Great Room emphasize the open feeling. You will enjoy the beautiful views of the mountains, palm trees and a peak at the ocean. Sleeping Giant, illuminated by the sunrise each morning and again by the reflected glow of the sunset in the evening, is visible from the lanai and two balconies.

The high quality of construction of this newer resort is evident throughout the unit; ceiling crown molding, large baseboards, heavy solid core doors, Peruvian tile, central A/C and much more. The stylish interior includes a cook’s kitchen with a Wolf glass cooktop & oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, GE profile microwave, granite slab counter tops, African Mahogany cabinets and a generous supply of dishes, utensils and pans in the cupboards. Family and guests will enjoy dining inside or outside on the sheltered lanai.

Two bedrooms; one with a king-size bed and one with two double beds provide sleeping for 6, (NO uncomfortable sofa bed in the living room). The master bedroom has 2 sinks, a large soaking tub and a separate shower. The second bedroom has a bathroom with 2 sinks and a huge soaking tub. The third bathroom, accessible from all rooms, has one sink and a shower. Located on the fourth floor (top floor) with easy elevator access. Enjoy the elegant design and convenient location, with the beach and boundless Kauai adventures just outside your door.

The tropical lagoon pool area features a lazy river with a cave, waterfall, two waterslides and a sand bottomed cove for the little ones to splash in. One of the three sand bottomed hot tubs is a bit cooler so the whole family can enjoy a soak. Other on-site amenities include concierge service, fitness center, business center, two BBQ stations with multiple gas grills and access to Oasis on the Beach (exceptional oceanfront restaurant). Just beyond the pool area is the picture-perfect ocean beach. Lie on the sand on your striped towel or relax in one of the many lounge chairs, both provided by the resort. Some people swim and snorkel here, but it is a bit rocky so you may choose to do this at one of the nearby beaches.

Great walking location! Flanked by epic coastline and threaded together by the public bike path (just under 10 miles round trip), this centralized location is the social hub of Kauai. Having recently experienced a trendy transformation, the Old Town of Kapaa maintains its historic charm, yet boasts novel offerings for shopping fun. Also, just across the road from the resort you will find Safeway, McDonalds, Starbucks, a health food store, ice cream shop, nail salon, and other places to meet your daily needs. Restaurants abound for all budgets and tastes.

This impressive oceanfront resort features a variety of privately owned suites, condos,
apartments and penthouses with state-of-the-art amenities at affordable prices. E401 is
managed by Kauai Exclusive and we advertise it on this website, VRBO, and
numerous other sites. Kauai Exclusive has local representatives to quickly handle any
questions and issues that you might have.

Great Spot
The location was perfect on the middle of the east coast easy to travel north or south. The kids loved the pools and the beach was a nice spot to have a dip also, we even saw a MONK SEAL right out in front on the beach. The unit was well presented and had everything that we needed in it and with the shops across the road was a added bonus. Would stay here again.

Great family vacation
Our family of four stayed in the unit and it was fantastic! Perfect location halfway between north and south parts of the island and so many good restaurants in Kapa’a! The pool area was great and we used it every day. The only thing we wished was better was the hours of the restaurant. It was only open from like 3-9pm. So you couldn’t get lunch or pool drinks at all…which was strange for a “resort”. I will say we had a fantastic dinner there on our last night though. Other than that it was perfect!

A so-so option for our vacation
It fit our needs - Accessible parking; access to the unit w/o stairs; 2-BR suite with accessible bathrooms; reasonably well equipped; located near shopping & restaurants for services & our meals. However, every day at both rush hours, traffic (construction-driven) was horrible. (It's likely to be less horrific once work is completed, although likely not gone even then.) And, the online listing features balconies that are south-facing and that were, therefore, unusable on any sunny day or even on a partly cloudy day. Next, instructions for 1) our arrival and 2) our stay and 3) our departure were 1) initially vague ("Contact your rental host ..."), then untimely relative to the date of our arrival, 2) missing some information (e.g., the code for the pool gate; what to do about trash we accumulated during our week-long visit), and 3) missing any information or instructions whatever regarding the check out process. (We did what was reasonable, then we left.) Finally, we felt besieged by communications from multiple sources regarding aspects of our visit - from VRBO, from RentalHost, from Kauai Exclusive, and from different sources within K.E. We were constantly unsure who to ask for missing information (We wanted a single consistent point of contact that had some sense of continuity with our arrangements and could meet all our needs). Based mostly on that final point, as long as this complexity remains as a hallmark of the VRBO experience, we will not try VRBO again any time soon for a vacation.

Great location, great property, but poorly stocked kitchen & no help from management
This is the 5th time we have stayed at Waipouli Beach Resort. The resort location is extremely convenient, the property is well kept-up, and it's a great place for memories to be made. The unit itself was great, beds were comfortable, and we will stay at the resort again in the future. This is the 2nd or 3rd time we have rented through VRBO with Kauai Exclusive Management. While they can be good with communication, they do not stock the condos well at all. It is the absolute bare minimum and a huge disappointment. For condos that have full nice kitchens (stove top with 5-6 burners), granite counter tops, etc., they only give 2 small frying pans. This made mornings with our kids challenging when we wanted to make simple things like pancakes and eggs. There were no measuring cups. There was one tiny mixing bowl and one huge one....again...a challenge when fixing meals for a family of just 4 people.... When I addressed the lack of kitchen items to Kauai Exclusive management, they told me someone would deliver the requested/needed items. 2 days later, we still didn't have them. I finally had to call the management company and was told that we would not be receiving the items and that the items the kitchen was stocked with was "the standard" and no additional items would be delivered. This was frustrating and disappointing -- I had thought Kauai Exclusive Management was in the "customer service" business.....their company as a whole apparently isn't. Per my interaction with their company, they do not represent the owners of their property well at all. If someone requests something as basic and straightforward as measuring cups, they shouldn't be denied that simple item (an item that is typically in every kitchen). Beyond Kauai Exclusive Management, Taylor who works for them is an absolute gem. When I spoke with her on the phone and expressed my disappointment with her company and their "standard" lack of stocking basic kitchen items, Taylor went above and beyond and took time out of her own personal schedule and used her own money to get those items (plus some special treats for our kids) and dropped them off for us. It was greatly appreciated. While she was the star performer and we truly appreciated her, Kauai Exclusive Management was a huge let-down and disappointment. Renters should just be aware --- you may have to pay money out of your own pocket for basic kitchen items to stock their kitchens....

Inaccurate description
Overall, my family of 6 had a great time! The location is okay, not great, but I previously knew that traffic around Kapaa is always bad. The online description when we booked said this was for 6 people and the room included a sofa bed. Well… that’s not the case. There’s a king bed in one room and two single beds in the other room. No sofa bed. We discovered this the day or two before we left, as I contacted the property about something else. When I asked management about having inaccurate descriptions of the room online, they suggested I go buy an air mattress once I got to Kauai. Really???? I was also told that I should have booked directly with the property management company’s website instead of a third party website like vrbo (As I I magically know what company manages all the properties) because their website shows correct information. We ended up bringing an air mattress and pump from home, as an online search of availability of local stores (Walmart, Target, etc) showed not much available as far as air mattresses go. Other than that, the property was great! We loved the pool, the ability to rent bikes/boogie boards/umbrellas/etc directly from the hotel, the spacious room, the contactless check in and check out, and more.

Perfect location for our stay in Kauai
This condo was the perfect place for our trip to Kauai. Kapa'a was a great spot to enjoy the whole island, away from the busyness of Poipu but with great shopping and restaurants here. We ventured to the beaches up north and to the south easily from the resorts location. The resort itself had amazing grounds with friendly staff, a great pool with water slides and a lazy river, 3 hot tubs, and grass areas that kept all of us entertained the entire day. Gas grills were cleaned every morning so that they looked new each day and we never had to wait on one. The restaurant attached to the grounds was very good for dinner and happy hour or poolside drinks. We went out most mornings to the beach to watch the sunrise, and even had a seal on the beach our last day there. The condo was also very spacious and well appointed. All the utensils and pots/pans we'd need. Sharp knives, large plastic cups (came in handy as glassware not permitted near the pool area), beach chairs and sand toys and a cooler were also in the condo which we used every day. Fast wifi (especially compared to friends staying in another building onsite), cold AC that auto shuts off when doors are open to let in outside breeze. Most of time we left all doors open and ceiling fans on to take advantage of the beautiful weather. Condo also included vacuum and broom to help keep clean during our stay. Very nice kitchen appliances and washer/dryer. Finally, condo was next to elevator and stairs and right by an exit to parking which was nice to have short trips to car carrying small kids and beach items. Resort also had plenty of baggage carts available onsite. Would definitely stay here again on future trips to Kauai.

Best spot on the island
We loved this location. Centrally located to everywhere you want to go. Conveniently located across the street from the grocery store and only a block from the drug store. The pool is beautiful along with all the grounds. This unit didn’t have the best view but it did have the most comfortable beds and pillows. There were some scheduled maintenance issues during our stay but they tried to make it during the time that most people are out and about. We would definitely stay there again.

Overpriced - Stay Elsewhere
Let me start by saying this is my first negative review of a property, ever. Not sure where to start. Balls of hair in two of the three beds, had me changing sheets upon arrival because I couldn’t get ahold of anyone as it was “after hours”. Not even enough hot water to fill 1/4 of bath tubs (100% the reason I booked this place were the free standing tubs). Cockroach and ant visitors (yes all food/beverages were stored in fridge, so this was to no fault of our own. AC stopped working in the middle of the night on the last night. Overall, place wasn’t cleaned well at all. Dirty counters, draws upon opening had sticky stuff spilt on all utensils. No coffee, salt and pepper… definitely not up to par with what a rental needs to be when it’s over $400/night. The beds in all of the rooms need to be replaced - but especially in the room with two beds. They are visibly sloped to the center. I have photos to vouch for all of these issues. And in no way is this a “garden view” parking lot view would be accurate. To top it all off, I had to contact them multiple times to sort out what kind of compensation I would receive for a horrible experience. And by multiple times, it was over four times before a refund email was actually sent. Again, this was all initiated by me - and should have been something the management company sorted themselves.
