We had a wonderful stay at Aku Lani. The accommodations were very nice, however the house has very poor ventilation, and circulation. It was too hot to be in the living room, dining room, and kitchen. One afternoon my husband suffered heat stroke after coming back in from the day to the stifling heat of the house. You must have the owner install an air conditioning unit in the main area of the house. The other item that was not comfortable was that the couch and chair in the only sitting area are covered with bedspreads that slip off, have to be constantly re tucked in, make it not easy or comfortable to sit in this area. We were called two times to have the property shown by realtors. The first time I went out of my way to make sure the house was pulled together, also my family left the house for that period of time so the realtor could show the house. ( which he did not end up doing after my efforts to accomodate his needs) This was not acceptable because the ONE reason we needed to get away so badly from our own home, is that it is on the market also. I was so tired of constantly having to have our home ready to show by realtors, then we go on a very pricey vacation and I am expected to do this on Kauai.....not good. All in all, we would consider renting this property or one like it again. The location was superb, the neighborhood quiet. The hosue was well stocked and very clean upon arrival. We are considering returning in August of this year. Would you have this or a similar property available for another week for us? Thank you. Laura Jenkins

2010: New owners have installed air conditioning in all 3 bedrooms and the living room so much better now!
