The room was not clean, cobwebs, clogged bath tub, dirty pillow case, dirty floors, ceiling fans growing fur. This was a condo not obtained thru Pono Kai direct so it was not serviced by Pono Kai.

Love the location of the property. Unit itself is due for some upgrades. Bed was comfortable, but because there is no air conditioning in the bedroom, I had to sleep on the couch for it to be cool enough.

it was a dump and super hot in the bedroom, 3 forks in kitchen, the bath and kitchen not very clean and the entire kitchen leaves a lot to the imagination, needs help. if you saw up close pics, you would laugh, peeling stick on's, uneven and tired and old. The staff that came to help was a few days later and gave us a fan that didn't do much, i ended up purchasing a fan at Walmart that worked. that place is way too expensive for what you get. Thankfully it was only a week. The staff that came to assist was super nice and helpful, but the owner really needs to update that place and do a deep clean!

Pretty typical rental with adequate amenities. Unit was clean and located near beach, restaurants and shopping. There is a good deal of noise from other units as mentioned in other reviews but not so much as to change rating. Staff was pleasant and responsive. Overall, a reasonable unit for the price.

Pono Kai has always felt like a second home to us; relaxing and comfortable. We notified vacasa that the screen and patio needed attention and this was dealt with the next day. the location is accessible to the bus routes and grocery store so we didn't rent a car.

Good location and property was spacious. I’d stay there again. Sound does travel from upstairs so bring earplugs.

You could hear all the footsteps from unit above. Sometimes until after midnight and early morning. VERY ANNOYING and disruptive to sleep!!

To noisy. Could hear everything from the above unit. The complex needs badly isolation between floors. I would not stay there again.
