We stayed for a week and the house was amazing. The house is gorgeous and the scenery surrounding the house makes this place that much more stunning. The pictures do not do it justice! It is extremely well located with lots of options nearby. The host was extremely friendly and responsive as well. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to vacation here!

A beautiful property with a backyard that is a rainforest. Top quality kitchen and bedding. Paddleboards, bikes, beach chairs and snorkel equipment came in handy for our group. Easy access to Hanalei Bay and Ha'ena state park.

This a beautiful property, so private and quiet. Very comfortable and met with all our needs. The owners are very generous is leaving, bikes, beach chairs, and gear for renters. This is a lovely central location, close to everything.

Well-appointed, beautifully designed home. The property is lovely and crazy private for Princeville. Comfy mattresses, gorgeous vista, great cross-breezes with nicely screened sliders and windows. Hosts are generous with amenities and supplies. Only complaint—glassware is in need of a restock. Two wine glasses, some plasticware, and a few glass tumblers. Even with just two of us we were rewashing a lot (and it’s a vacation!}. Small stuff—hope to be back. Mahalo.

It’s just like in the pictures! So private, with luxury. We had a respite girls week and it was perfect! Great kitchen. Views are amazing….sunrise every morning from bed or the outdoor living space. The master bed and bath are set up to be in the nature of the back yard oasis. It’s an amazing place and did not disappoint!!

The property is located in a beautiful location in Princeville. The home was terrific and met all our needs for a few of five, with the grandparents also joining us. I would be happy to stay here again in the future.

We hadn't been back to our island for awhile due to serious illness, but it was amazing to be back. We always rented the same home in Hanalei, but it was booked. So for the first time in 33 years we stayed in Princeville. The house was extremely private and for the most part, well appointed and comfortable. The gorgeous views from just about every window were of the lush ravine filled with verdent trees, ferns and abundant flora, and rang out with birdsong. The human neighbors were very quiet, however, the unavoidable roosters cawing at all hours along with the sound of idling diesel engine emited from giant cane toads are simply part of north shore life - bring earplugs.) The home was nicely decorated and fairly well equipped, however the sofa felt a bit old and grungy, and the throw pillows were scratchy. When we discovered the home's supplied beach chairs and umbrellas were all broken and unusable, Eric from Hawaii Life responded immediately with lovely brand new ones. He was helpful and kind.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I stayed here with my husband’s parents and brother. There were 5 adults total. The house was very spacious for the 5 of us. The grounds of the house are inviting and beautiful. It is in a peaceful setting and the back patio is relaxing. We enjoyed being close to Anini Beach and the shops in Princeville and close to Hanalei. The house is nice, but a little dated. It was clean upon arrival with great instructions for check-in. There are 5 beach chairs in the garage, which were great to have access to. There are also lots of beach toys, snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach towels, and beach umbrellas. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. We didn’t notice until after our first night that there was no soap, or body wash, or shampoo/conditioner in the bathrooms. Usually, a host will provide even sample size bottles of these things and/or a bar of soap. I don’t know if this was just overlooked by housekeeping or if this host just doesn’t provide those items. We had to go buy bar soap. A couple of drawbacks to this house are: 1) There is no air conditioning. There is a wall unit to cool the master bedroom, but the rest of the house was very warm. Those sleeping in the other bedrooms didn’t get much relief at night from the warm, humid air. Our visit was during an atypical warm spell, though. 2) I do realize that Hawaii has a climate for bugs and critters. So, I’m not sure what to expect as reasonable when renting a house, as we’ve always stayed in hotels during previous vacations to Kauai. But, there are little lizards in this house, cockroaches, and I saw a centipede. Not a ton of critters but enough to make me hesitate to rent a house in the future when visiting Kauai and stick to hotels, where critter control seems more robust. Perhaps, I’m just too much of a princess.

This house is in a great location. You are in a neighborhood but tucked away so that it feels very private. There are windows everywhere that let you enjoy the amazing plant-life around you and let the refreshing breeze flow through. No need for air-conditioning! The kitchen and grill came in handy on nights that we didn't feel like food from a restaurant. The owner has available for renters: beach towels, beach chairs, swim fins in multiple sizes, snorkels and masks (for kids), bikes and even surf and SUP boards. We really appreciated the towels and beach chairs, and the easy access to the outdoor shower after our beach days. The outdoor seating area was great, we spent most of our time there. The hot tub was fun for a quick soak after the sun went down. I couldn't have asked for a better place for my family to spend a week in paradise!

This was my family’s first time to Kauai and we couldn’t have picked a better rental property to stay at during our visit. The house was beautiful both inside and out. Plenty of space, extremely clean and only 10 minute drive into Hanalei town. We will definitely be back. Aloha!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful experience in this lovely, well equipped home. The house itself is absolutely gorgeous and the minute you walk in you feel at home. We were with a large group and the different levels gave everyone a space to spread out yet we were all able to get together in the common areas which were beautiful and comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend this home on the north shore and we plan to stay again in the future.

We absolutely loved our stay! The backyard is like its own private tropical paradise! The house is spacious and the garage is stocked with snorkel gear, boogie boards and everything else you could want for a beach. Walking distance to Queen’s Bath and the golf course means you’re minutes away to the best sunrise/sunset on the island! We will stay in this house again.
