Stay booked as a Diamond timeshare referral. Avoid like the plague. Photos/description misleading. Old, out of date. Exterior dirty. Entry way dirty with lots of bird poop. Interior furniture old/uncomfortable. Bathmat looked like original from when location first built. No beach to speak of. Bedroom window faced parking lot. Wakened by garbage truck lights/alarms at 4:00 a.m. Supposed to stay... More

Stayed here for it's centrally located convenience but won't be returning. Had a second floor unit (201) and there seemed to be an elephant or two in the third floor unit. This started around 6am and lasted until midnight a couple times. The walls for your neighbor next door must be uninsulated and only 3 inches thick. Could hear their... More

This is an older condo, but is fairly well kept up. The furnishings were older, but still in great shape and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with pots, pans, dishes, glasses, etc. that allowed you to cook and serve up to six folks, but if you are going to do a lot of cooking, be prepared to... More

My husband and I just returned from Kauai. We booked a one bedroom at Kapa'a Shores Resort through Diamond Resorts. This is not a Diamond Resort but this resort is contracted through Diamond. The Diamond Resort in Poipu was full. After I booked the trip I started reading all the bad comments and was worried about what we were going... More

Very disappointed, again used my timeshare and was not impressed. The room was outdated and musty and by the way is smoke free in case they do not tell yoiu that before you book, which they did not tell us and my husband is a smoker. The pool is very small, the grills that they have, well there is only... More

I shouldn't complain too much since this was a gift but we wouldn't stay there again. Staff is lovely - very helpful & just wonderful. Most rooms have a fantastic view of the ocean & you can hear it roaring 24/7 but you can't swim as there is no beach. Very large & spacious rooms with a fully stocked kitchen.... More

For the most part our unit was decent. Really nice view, right on the water and the chairs on the lawn were great to have. Furniture isn't new, but is reasonably nice. Kitchen has what you need, bathroom was slightly upgraded. Did find hair in our towels and the 2 beach towels in the hot water closet were old and... More

We had a first floor end unit which was convenient to the pool and barbeque grills. World Mark is managing the units, and are doing... More

We just returned from a trip to Kauai, HI yesterday. We stayed at the Kapaa Shore resort in Kapaa. The resort, a combination of 2 timeshare companies (Worldmark and HSI) and rentals, was very clean and conveniently located about 10 - 15 minutes from the Lihue airport. Shopping and groceries, drug stores, and food are all within a block (walking... More
