It’s a great place to just chill! As my daughter would say, it had a great retro Hawaiian vibe. The decorations were trendy and colorful…like we were in a real Hawaiian house. I had knee replacement surgery about 1.5 years ago, and made it around just fine. If you do have knee problems though, just be aware that you’ll have to navigate stairs and a low commode, so maybe inquire. Loved the scene from the balcony.

We loved the view and the location, about 10 mins from Hanalei Bay. Things to note: there’s no beach walking distance of the unit. The condo is perched high on bluffs, and while there’s supposedly a trail leading from the property down to the beach, we found it slippery and dangerous. Also, I found the communication with the property management, Kauai Kahuna, to be frustrating. We were asked if we needed anything, but almost everything was met with a version of “No, buy it yourself.” For example, shampoo, conditioner and sugar were not provided. The snorkeling gear provided was faulty, and while we were provided with replacements, it was nearly a 2 business day wait with no specific arrival time to plan our snorkeling around, so we spent 25 to rent snorkels. The VRBO's Cleaning rules upon checkout were quite strict, i.e. "Your 30 cleaning fee includes the laundering of 2 sets of towels, for anything other than that, launder yourself or be charged a cleaning fee." So the last night of our stay, I had to stay up while the washer and dryer ran our beach towels, since that fell outside of the "covered" 2 sets of bath towels. We also had to take out the trash ourselves. Not sure what the cleaning fee really covers at that point. While we liked this unit, we'll likely try another management company next time.

Great views. We ate breakfast every morning on the deck as well as sat there every evening. Bright and spacious with two places to sleep in such a way that two people can each be in their own space. The building is next to the pool & near everything we wanted to do on the north shore. I loved that all the windows were open when we arrived so it was cool and not stuffy. The kitchen and bathroom windows have views of the mountains, while the others have views of the sea. There was a fresh wrapped sponge and a full paper towel roll by the kitchen sink & plenty of TP in the bathroom. It was also great to have a washing machine, especially the rinse and spin cycle. We didn't use the dryer; on plastic hangers everything dried overnight with the good ventilation. I liked being on the top floor too as no one could walk by it felt very private. Beautiful grounds too.

Wonderfully peaceful. Amazing views of ocean and mountains. Appreciated all the amenities, including beach chairs, snorkels, towels and in-unit washer and dryer. The bathroom and kitchen are dated, but fully functional. We are an adventurous couple and need a comfortable and functional place to stay. Not looking for 5-star resort, but got 5-star resort views. Sunrises were amazing.

80th birthday celebration

We have been staying at F9 for over 30 years. We were renting from the original owner before it was leased through a property. It is a perfect location with views of the sea and surf and the sounds lull you sleep at night. I was pleased to see that they had replaced the lanai flooring with a synthetic that didn’t give you splinters in your feet. The apartment was clean but old and dated. The same dim bathroom lights and bathtub non-slip stickers (or what’s left of them) are still here after 30 years! We had to put a small area rug with a rubber backing in the tub, so we wouldn’t slip. We are seniors but very active so going up and down to the third floor is not a big deal. We have stayed at other third floor properties in Sea Lodge but sitting on the lanai in F9 is the best because the wind doesn’t blow the paper umbrella out of your mai tai!This location is perfect. It needs a little TLC upgrade.

Great location but pretty old interior and lacking in supplies

The pros: Great location! You get to stay right by the ocean and although there is no AC, cracking open the windows at night gives you all the fresh air you need to get a great nights rest.The cons: This isn't our first time staying at Sea Lodge and we love that area but this particular unit inside is really old and really lacks supplies. When we first open the doors, there were two very big wasps flying around and when we called the property manager to take care of it, they first wanted us to take care of the issue ourselves. We pushed back and to their credit they ended up taking care of it by sending someone out. The property really lacks supplies. There were only 3 spoons and 2 very very tiny bars of soap that we went through quickly and when we asked for more, the property manager told us to go buy our own. I don't expect for the management to just renovate the property because it's very expensive but there are so many things that would be very inexpensive for them to replace out of courtesy and enjoyment for the person staying with very very little out of pocket expense for them.Summary: This isn't our first time staying at a property at Sea Lodge and have always enjoyed staying in the area and will most likely be back again. But compared to the other units we stayed at, this unit is quite outdated and not stocked well.

Love Sealodge

Sorry, the burners on the stove are funky. One doesn’t work. The kitchen and pantry area could use a deep clean. FYI, the kitchen floor is spongy and the linoleum is coming up in a few spots. Hard to maintain in a damp environment. Still loved our stay.

Amazing Condo

Located in a great area. We enjoyed listening to the waves every night while we slept. The lanai has an amazing view. We sat out there every morning to watch the sunrise and every night to star gaze. We watched whales and surfers from the balcony. We were worried about no AC but it ended up being just fine with the windows open and ocean breeze. Although it’s an older unit, the property is well maintained and provided all of the amenities we were looking for. We had a great time!

Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was perfect!

F9

I’ll begin by saying we love Sealodge and that area. F9 unit has a spectacular view. We saw whales almost every day and fabulous birds. It really is a wonderful place. Unfortunately, after a few days( we rented F9 for 2 weeks) you begin to notice things. The unit really needs some new paint and some TLC. The plumbing fixtures worried me every time I went to have a shower or brush my teeth. The beds are soft. The screens have holes. The washer and dryer are sort of in the dining room with you. But then there’s the view! I waffled back and forth between loving the place and being a bit disappointed. I’d definitely rent in the Sealodge complex again, but I do not think I would ever rent F9 again.

Adequate stay

Great spot if you don’t plan to spend too much time indoors. Third floor feels private with a great view. Not fun trudging up and down with luggage and groceries, but overall appreciate the privacy of the top floor. The furniture and beds are not comfortable. I didn’t sleep well any of the nights. It would be worth investigating in good quality mattresses, linens and pillows. My goal for this vacation was to rest and I didn’t get to do that due to the uncomfortable bed/furniture. It also would have been nice to be able open the heavy window covering for the kitchen window for light and air. The carpet felt clean. Dresser and closet were adequate for storage. There was a cockroach in the dryer and one that showed up in the living room. Lastly, it would be worth investing in better kitchen supplies. Knives were all dull and we had to get creative when try to bake in the oven. Having basic spices would also make the place a bit more convenient since prices for groceries are so expensive. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the proximity to a semi private beach and trail. Fir the most part, neighbors were quiet. Pool was great! The renovation made a huge difference.
