Things to do on Kauai
Even though Kauai is cooler than the other islands it is humid and breezy. Guests from dry climates may require A/C to be comfortable.
Most of the condos do not have air conditioning so be sure to book your package with us and we will make sure that you have the A/C if you require it.
