Our stay in Aloha Sands this June made our Kauai trip delightful. The townhouse is located very close to Poipu Beach, one of the best beaches for day-long swimming and snorkeling. The townhouse is very thoughtfully equipped - we could not ask for more! We will return!

| I, along with two girlfriends, spent a week at your beautiful townhome in January. It was our first trip to Kauai and found it amazing. Such a lush, green island with wonderful people and beautiful beaches. The accomodations in your home were excellent. Close to the beach and great restaurants. |

| We had a delightful stay at Aloha Sands in February of this year. A friend had recommended the Poipu area for our first visit to Kauai but we were on our own for figuring out the rest. After much searching and reading reviews of the resort I knew I wanted to stay in the Manualoha units. We couldn't have chosen better. Aloha Sands is, to my view in the best situated unit. Open to a lovely view of water and palm trees and sweeping lawn. SO close to the beach that our four year old didn't even complain about not being carried. And the unit itself is very well equipped, clean, spacious and cheerful with wonderful pastel landscapes on the walls. We will return! |

| We loved your beautiful townhome, which was EXACTLY as portrayed on your website. It is well-equipped, with many extras (beach chairs and toys, cooler, every appliance one could need, books, dvds, cds). The Manualoha pool is fantastic. We will be back. Mahalo for letting us rent your beautiful home. |

We just finished a wonderful but too short 9 day stay at Alohasands (Jan/09). In our opinion, the condo is nicer than what the pictures can show. It's beautifully furnished, kitchen has everything and incredible sunset views to top it off. For a family of 4 with two teenagers, this was perfect with excellent fast access to the beach areas. We would definitely stay here again, except longer next time!! Mahalo, Jim, Birte, Natalie & Thomas |

Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us. The townhouse is ideal with everything we need for a relaxing worry free vacation. The interior is gorgeous and we can tell alot of attention has gone into making it a special place to get away and unwind. We especially appreciate the location, within walking distance of several beautiful beaches and close to the resort pools as well. We are thoroughly enjoying our stay.

Thank you for sharing your home with us. We have been coming to Kauai for 19 years and this is the best condo we've ever rented. You've thought of everything from kitchen utensils to Q-tips in the bathroom. We love the master bath and shower too! It's a great location for beaches and restaurants which we really appreciated. We hope to come back soon. |

Mahalo for the great, great condo in a spectacular location on Kauai. The amenities you provide are second to none – we used the beach shoes for snorkeling at Poipu! . . .We didn’t miss much on the island, including watching the whales migrating. Aloha until we return. March 2006

Thank you for sharing your beautiful Hawaiian home with us. We enjoyed a wonderful week away from the winter snowy weather of Wisconsin. While here, we went to a luau, on a dinner cruise, did snorkeling and scuba diving, went horseback riding, kayaking and hiking as well as many memorable meals out. Kauai is so beautiful; we had a wonderful vacation in a wonderful home. February 2006

Aloha and thank you for sharing your beautiful condo with us. You have really done a wonderful job of making us feel welcome – with so many spices, tools in the kitchen, lovely linens, etc. The view from the lanais is breath-taking and we can hear the waves from the ocean breaking which is so emotionally relaxing to hear.

Aloha! We agree with all the complimentary remarks already entered in this guest book. The location is convenient to so many restaurants and activities. Walk in any direction with your camera in hand and you’ll have some memorable photographs!
The locals are a good source of information…you are surrounded by the friendliest people in the world (as voted by one of the Travel magazines and we agree)! They will treat you like ohana if you let them. Mahalo to Cheri for what she has done to make our vacation so enjoyable. October 2005

Location, location, location! All the conveniences so close but the complex is pleasantly quiet and beautifully maintained.
This condo is a perfect place to enjoy a Hawaii vacation!! Not only is the kitchen fun to work in, but Ms.Dunbar has thoughtfully stocked it with every small appliance and pan know to man. In addition, this townhome is tastefully furnished so even a rainy day is enjoyably spent inside.
We really appreciated all the beach gear and the helpful binder describing eateries and beaches, etc. We will be back to this piece of paradise soon! March 2005 Chiaverina Family, Crystal Lake, Ill.

| Aloha. Your views were breathtaking and your home so convenient for our beach and poolside fun. Our granddaughter was 19 months old so this was perfect for her. Whoever designed the kitchen deserves a prize! (I’d like to have it in my home). Your décor was a lovely sumptuous feast for the eyes and body. We were lucky to be here and hope to come again.

Aloha! We had a wonderful stay! Thank you for your beautiful vacation home. We have always stayed somewhere on this property and will most definitely seek out Manualoha 402 again. The weather was perfect! “Sunny Poipu” did not let us down. Your kitchen remodel was worth every penny you put into it! The amazing lighting options were fun and also inspiring to us for our own home in Seattle. The walk in shower was great fun for my twin girls who also want one at home. Please keep the twin beds.
