Frequently Asked Questions FAQ • Is this a 1 bedroom condominium? Once a Hilton hotel, the Kauai Beach Resort is a "condotel"(condominium-hotel). You get resort luxury and individually owned rooms. However of the 364 total units, not many are owners like myself where you can book directly and save a lot of money. My suite is hotel size: 307 square feet with a 58 square foot balcony. Most units are about this size and have similar furnishings. Due to Kauai law for this type of accommodation(condotel), there are no cooking appliances in the room, but there is a coffee maker and the full size fridge with freezer. Ice machine and microwave are at 5th floor lounge. Cooler and ice packs provided. • What's the difference between my suite, renting directly from the resort, or some other travel agency or website? The difference is price, amenities, housekeeping, and choice of room. My suite is quite a bit less expensive overall and Amenity differences (subject to change): -no maid service for stays of 7 nights or less unless you request it for an additional fee. For stays of 8 nights or more, I will provide a free mid-stay cleaning which will give you fresh sheets and towels. -I do not charge a daily resort or amenity fee...a savings of $25/day -the resort fee gives other guests the following extras (subject to change): newspaper, DVDs, PlayStation, and yoga classes. My guests can still use the pools, spa, restaurants, bar, room service, shops, business center, fitness center, car rental, and laundry room. Plus, my guests have to pay to rent DVDs. -I do not increase my room charge for more than 2 guests...others charge $40 per person -parking is $31/day plus tax. All guests pay for parking. -during your stay, if you need assistance, you contact me. Most other guests would go to the front desk. I know this seems like a lot of stuff, but I am hoping to clarify what your experience will be like at the resort. For most people, your enjoyment will be equivalent to someone paying $100+ more per night and the minor differences often are not noticeable or relevant. Plus, you are saving a bunch of money and getting one of the best rooms in the resort! • Is there a kitchen? No, but I have full size refrigerator with freezer and a coffee maker. There are no plates, bowls, glasses, or utensils. A microwave at 5th floor and ice machine. Sorry, Kauai law for this type of property does not permit cooking appliances inside the unit. • What is there to do? For short stays, you may want to keep it simple and stay at the resort enjoying the restaurants and bar, walks along the beach, tennis, spa, or one of the pools. For longer stays, booking a rental car ahead of time and picking it up at the airport makes sense. With a long-term car rental to explore all over, there is an additional parking charge. Car rental rates vary depending on where you rent, so shop around. This great mid-island location puts you less than a hour away from the tourist activities on the north shore and south shore. • What is the bedding arrangement? The suite is ideal for 2 adults and 1children using the king size bed, lounger, The lounger is 53 inches long by 27 inches wide. Maximum accommodation is 2 adults and 1 child. • Do we need our own beach towels? I provide towels to use at the pools or beaches. • Is there a resort fee? No, not if you are booking directly from an owner like myself. You can still enjoy the fitness center, pools, and more. • What about WiFi? WiFi is free throughout the resort and in the room. • Does the suite have air conditioning? Yes. And nice ocean breezes. Registration number 370030150118, TA-198-057-1648-01
