It was fair but never again
Cons:

Living room was nice and cold and the bedroom was hot like an oven. We had to use the stand up fan in closet to keep my daughter cool down. Also it ask if I had kids and they put me on the top floor, mind you my daughter is 2 and love running and making noise. I felt bad for the people on the bottom of us as we tried our best to keen her calm.

Not every unit is the same, ours was shoddy and dirty
Pros:

Dead roaches everywhere, in drawers, in the shower, there was Punic hair I the bathroom around the toilet floor, the air conditioner in the bed room barely counts as a ac unit, the living room was so hot that we had to buy our own fan to help reduce the heat. The carpet was soggy under the ac. The iron was broken and sparked when plugging in, had to purchase our own iron not have wrinkled clothes everyday for our convention. We had multiple other members of our conference staying in the same building and when they came to our room they felt terrible at the condition our room was in. It was miserable. They had fully ac entire units, hard wood floors, entire couch units, all while we were sweating profusely trying to all sit in the bedroom to avoid the living room! With soggy carpets and roaches! The kitchen had dead roaches so we had to clean and wipe everything down before feeling like it was clean enough to use anything in the kitchen. The bedroom had pubic hair on one of the sheets, had to wash all beddings before we felt it was clean enough to use safely. We forgot our air pods in the unit and after numerous emails no response back! Hate to have to call Kauai Police but may have to if no response back.

Pros:

Location was perfect for what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go. Also the kids loved using the pools.

Cons:

when we arrived we had no curtains or power in the living room. These things were resolved quickly but Probably the biggest issue was that we had no air conditioning unit in the living room so it was very warm there during our stay, even though we used the ceiling fan and opened the sliding door to the lanai it just couldn't get cool enough to be comfortable to relax in the living room.

We stayed for one night. The accommodation was fine for that. The location is great!
Pros:

Excellent location! Very convenient and everything was walkable. It had AC which was a bonus.

Cons:

The inside was nice, but the buildings itself needs updating.

Roomy 1 bedroom apartment style with pools and near beach
Pros:

Spacious 1 bedroom with full kitchen and access to inexpensive paid laundry. Rooms generally face either beach (across the field) or the pool. Like having a small apartment. (Be sure to use self-check-in link they send, rather than trying to find the front desk in another building in the shopping center!)

Pros:

The location and room was awesome

Cons:

A destination island should have local, live, face to face interactions rather than what has been established.

Beautiful hotel/condominium located in Coconut Coast of Kauai.
Pros:

This was a family trip for us, and we booked two rooms adjacent to each other (I contacted the hotel in advance to request that). Registration is done online couple days before arrival, and the entry code was sent to us the day of the arrival. The hotel condition needs some upgrades, especially with the room conditions, but everything else exceeds our expectation: the well-kept garden, the friendliness of the staff, the ease of access using the keyless entry, the clean pool area and BBQ grill, etc. We also like the location: it's a short walk to the shoreline, and there's the plaza complex with convenience store and shops (the farmer market is held three times a week there in the parking lot of the plaza). There's no daily housekeeping; towel exchange can be done at the hospitality office located in the plaza (information in the booklet). Housekeeping service can be scheduled for a fee (if stay longer than a week there's a complimentary housekeeping service).

Family vacation.
Pros:

Pool was clean and great. I rented 2 rooms and I asked if the rooms can be close together Upstairs and downstairs, they accommodated me with what I requested, that was a plus for me.

Plantation Hale Suites is a lovely, quiet location to visit.
Pros:

I arrived at exactly 4:00 pm and was helped by a security guard who called management as I had not received my entrance information as yet and was not aware there is no front desk or staff around, but you are sent the information via text. Now that I know I will be fine for the next visit.

Cons:

In the BOOKINGS app it should indicate that everything for Hale is done via text. I very much appreciated getting to book these several nights a week before arriving because my hotel reservation was accidentally cancelled somehow in Lihue. I am so THANKFUL for Bookings.com as you always, always, help me find accommodations. I never book this close to traveling but you came through again. THANK YOU, Bookings.
