Kauai Condos Allowing Pets

Restrictions do apply on many condos and each complex maintains individual pet policies; some will allow any pet, while others may specify the type of pet or have limits on the size or number of animals allowed in a unit.

Many Kauai condominiums require pets to have board approval prior to moving in. It’s best to check before you buy.
