Recent East Shore - Kauai guest reviews

339 has nice view grounds/pool and ocean. Room clean, bed comfy (not too firm and not soft). They provided shortbread cookies, trail mix and coffee. Room has pretty much anything needed including 2 beach chairs and 3 fans, which are not necessary since AC worked well. I did use small white fan on table top at night for circulation only. Unit included 4 beach towels & 4 each bath, hand and wash cloths as well as lotion, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Kitchenette towels, dish soap and sponge. There was only 1 electric plug area available behind tv for my ROKU, if you need other device power, bring power strip. Electrical outlet for bedside is only 1 plug behind bed/mattress but mattress is an easy slide, but bring longer phone charging cable to avoid inconvenience and maybe a plug that you can charge more than one device at a time, if necessary. I was traveling alone so it was no problem.

We had the absolute best time at J11! The booking and check in process was super easy, and we arrived to a beautiful welcome basket. The location was perfect - close to Safeway, great restaurants and easily accessible to get to any part of the island. The unit itself was clean, comfortable, and had everything we could possibly need - including beach chairs/gear. Would happily stay again!

Nice place, meters away from the beach, clean in a good location.
