Island Rentals Property Management is under new ownership (since 2018). It's actually changed…read morehands a few times since we have been with them as landlords, and we love the new owners. Sarah is very hands on, proactive, attentive to detail and yet still keeps an eye on the bottom line. She has previous extensive property management experience and works hard to keep her units taken care of. Jamey handles maintenance and rehab work. He is also very attentive to detail and plans ahead for ways to make future needed maintenance easier as well. We found out a few months ago that a lot of maintenance had been deferred for years plus our unit had a lot of annoying issues (who wants to sit on a rocking toilet?!). They want to help keep our unit in great shape, so our renters are happy, and so that our investment is taken care of and lasts. And, we want that, too. They came up with a plan and estimates. Both Sarah and Jamey were great to work with. We ended up doing a partial rehab, but the place looks better than when we had bought it. They helped a lot with picking out new flooring, new paint, and other things like faucets and sinks that honestly we didn't have much prior experience with. Sarah was great about keeping me in the loop by texting, calling, or emailing me to let me know the status of projects/issues (as is typical with rehabs, things didn't always go according to plan). She also sent pictures and videos of the issues, so we could understand the need to tweak our original plan as well as pictures/videos of the finished work (the flooring looks amazing!!!). Because the rehab was not planned for, both of them found creative ways to help us stay at or below our budget which we really appreciated. Everyone who has seen our unit loves it! I highly recommend Island Rentals whether you are a owner or renter!

Deanna and her team deserve all the stars - and then some. We live in Seattle and recently had the…read moreopportunity to relocate to Kauai. After speaking with other real estate agents, it was impossible not to be impressed by Deanna's professionalism, work ethic, and knowledge of Kauai's housing market. She is the real deal! During the escrow process, Deanna was the best advocate and made sure we were represented and informed throughout each step of the process. She is the kind of agent who goes above and beyond to guarantee a smooth transaction. We are so happy that she was our partner during the purchase of our condo. She was a lifeline in the process. She was always one text message or phone call away and happy to help. We highly recommend Deanna to anyone buying or selling in Kauai! Her experience combined with the Hawaii Life network is all you need by your side to make a successful transaction.

GARDEN ISLAND RENTALS completely botched our arrival. We received our arrival correspondence…read moreWITHOUT AN ACCESS CODE TO GET INTO THE HOUSE. Four women and a 6 month old baby arrived at 9:00 pm to a dark house. We tried to correspond with the office as soon as we received the memo before we left San Diego, during their office hours, we then called and texted their emergency numbers after we landed on the island. WE GOT NO RESPONSE. The company blamed a "computer glitch," but DIDN'T even call the next day. We finally gained entrance with the help of the Baby Gear Rental Company. The House was awesome but BEWARE of the GARDEN ISLAND RENTAL STAFF. WE HAD BIG PROBLEMS WITH AVAILABILITY AND LACK OF RESPONSE.

Aloha! This was our…read moresecond stay in #104 at the lovely Prince Kuhio. Unfortunately, management knew our toilet was broken before we arrived and did not fix it after we requested it on day 2. For 8 days, our commode would not flush properly, and the seat was sliding as if it would fall off at any moment. Then the sliding screen door kept blowing open because there was no latch or lock mechanism. Geckos, lizards, grasshoppers, and crickets were constant guests in the condo. Not only was my partner scared to death of these creepy critters constantly roaming the room (a gecko in bed), but the crickets chirping in the wee hours of the morning inside the condo kept us up, and me on the hunt to give my girl peace of mind and some shut-eye. We either kept the door closed (which kept the room hot/no AC) or propped it closed with something, but it always seemed to find its way open. I chose #104 after a lovely experience during our first stay in 2025. In May of 2026, to celebrate my 60th and my partner's 50th birthday in #104 at the Prince Kuhio made perfect sense. After all, it was a very special occasion, as two milestones were to be celebrated. We may as well have slept on the beach. I asked for some compensation, and all we received was an "I'm sorry." I asked for a follow-up and received none. If this were you, how would you feel? Exactly. We provided Kauai Exclusive Management plenty of time to respond before letting them know I'd leave a review, because it was the right thing to do for a business to make something that was wrong, right. They did not care. And of course, they will likely reply with some, "We're so sorry you had a bad experience during your stay and... blah blah... blah blah blah. We've all been there and know the feeling of frustration afterward when their words subtly mock our words to smooth things over, reassuring future customers that they really do care. They did not care, and they don't care now. If I were the owner of #104, I'd be ashamed to have this place manage my condo. Next year, we're staying at the Prince Kuhio again, though in a different unit, booked through VRBO. In fact, I already booked the room! As I said, The Prince Kuhio is a lovely place, and I encourage any visitor to stay there. But I will never use Kauai Exclusive Management LLC again. They care more about the money than about the paying client's experience and comfort. Aloha. Seattle, WA USA

I booked a condo at the Waipouli Beach Resort about 8 months ahead of time. Before booking, I…read morecalled this management company and asked what happens if someone in my family is sick and is not able to travel. The person on the phone told me they would allow us to move our dates if needed. Of course, 2 of my young kids came down with a virus 3 days before my trip, I called to change dates, told them we were flexible, but they would NOT let us change dates. The manager, Sean, told me "All of my staff knows our policy and they would not tell you that." Essentially calling me a liar. They had no compassion or empathy and said "We aren't doing anything wrong, this is our policy." We were going to lose out on $3000 so we ended up still going but it wasn't the easiest or most enjoyable. We also called to request a late checkout the day of leaving but they wouldn't honor that either, 10am sharp. Update: After reading Sean's response, I would like to make it clear he is incorrect in a few details. 1.I did not ask for a cancellation, I wanted to move dates. Prior to booking, I called and the person I spoke to said if I had a sick kid they would be able to move dates. This led me to book, feeling I had insurance from them. 2. I was not upset on the phone when they told me I couldn't late checkout. I told them I understood, but I just wanted to mention on the review that there was no late checkout. 3. I did not have 3 separate people call and threaten them with bad reviews. The other person who called was my mother in law who was going to book with them if they let us change our dates. Even after reading Sean's response, I still feel no empathy from him or the company. I really wish we could have changed dates. This was my 40th birthday, and having to deal with 2 sick kids on vacation was tough. They were not able to enjoy the beach or pool at all. Not to mention, I was shaking and in tears on the phone with him and he just kept saying "this is our policy."
