It was an impromptu visit to Kauai with my family. I absolutely love Princeville and have stayed all over, but John's place was among my most favorite. His place is stocked, a breathtaking view of the ocean, and very comfortable. We hope to come back.

We loved our stay! The condo was very clean and well maintained. The property was very nice and close to everything we needed! Only thing to know is that there were no k-cups and shampoo/conditioner in the bathroom so be sure the bring your own!

We loved the condo! Very comfortable and beautifully done, luxurious . The peekaboo view of the ocean is a delight. The owner was super easy to communicate with. We hope to be back and we highly recommend you stay there.

We just concluded a fantastic stay at Ali’i Kai 14G. You get what you pay for here, and I mean that in the most complimentary of ways. The top five features for me at this unit were 1) the ability to have both mountain and sea views (sea and swaying palm tree views are on the lanai);2) the well-written, thoughtful and extensive instructions and recommendations that were provided to us beforehand— Very Much Appreciated; 3) the sense of peace and quiet throughout the complex, no matter the hour;4) the pool area! Nice clean water and not-too-hot hot tub; 5) access to the unbelievably beautiful Hideaways Beach and turtle cove.(Bonus #6: having two beds in the second bedroom. This is surprisingly difficult to find) The outstanding reviews this condo has earned are well-deserved! We definitely hope to be back within a couple of years! Mahalo Eric for sharing your gorgeous home.

The view is great, the place meet all of our needs. The place is dated, specifically the kitchen. It’s nothing fancy but for the price it was fine. The place could be cleaner but it was terrible.

The condo was very nice. However, soemthing about it felt "sterile" like a hotel room. Usually VRBOs have some intangible homey feel. Also, note there is no air conditioning (as stated in the description) and it is still very warm and sticky at night.I am very disappointed that the dryer was not working and later determined they knew before we arrived, but never told us, not even a note. We only found out after trying to dry our wash.

Our family had an amazing experience at this beautiful condo. It is well-equipped for a family. Incredible views and ambiance. Clean, well-organized, and so cute! The thoughtful recommendations from the property owner were especially helpful in making our trip a special one. We hope to be back soon.

The view is excellent and condo is very nice, clean and spacious with 2 rooms and 2 baths. Distance to Hanalei is convenient. This is now one of my favorite places to stay. Owner contact is easy and response is fast.

This is the second condo we've rented in Princeville. I really loved the location of this condo! It's situated ideally for the breeze coming from either the mountains or the ocean that runs right through the home, and since there isn't any A/C this makes the home very comfortable. The peekaboo view of the ocean is nice, but the view of the mountains are absolutely beautiful! Amazing. The condo complex was very quiet, which was great since we had a couple early morning excursions. The beds were comfortable and the dining table big for playing games at night. We took the bikes out, and used the smash ball game a couple times at the beach. We had a great stay at your condo! We would rent again from you for sure! Thank you

We absolutely loved our stay at this condo! We spent over a week enjoying the beautiful ocean views. Will, the owner, was incredibly responsive and helpful, and honestly, the condo looks even better in person than in the photos! It’s beautifully furnished, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped. A great bonus was all the beach gear provided, so we didn’t have to rent anything.

This is my third time in two years visiting Kauai…all three times I’ve stayed in this condo. That’s the only place I will stay. It’s absolutely gorgeous and perfect. The balcony is absolutely EPIC. You will not regret staying in this condo!

Excellent location, close to Hanalei town yet peaceful and quiet. The space is bright and airy, comfortably sleeps four, and offers partial ocean views. We appreciated the pool and jacuzzi, which were a great bonus. Would recommend for a relaxing family stay on the North Shore.

This is a great home base to explore the north shore. Although you can't walk to many places, the parking right at the condo is very helpful. Clean and well maintained with partial ocean views.

Wonderful location full of amenities! Probably the most well-stocked condo we have had. All the supplies, utensils, towels and beach toys are provided. From boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach towels- even straw sunhats. The Foodland is a short drive away and has everything. Numerous great dining options are close as is the beautiful Hanalei Bay. An outstanding vacation. Highly recommended. Also, communication with the owners was prompt and informative.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home in Princeville! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the stunning view, spotless interior, and peaceful surroundings. The house was even better than the photos—spacious and stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation.We are eager to come back to this property!

Lucy’s spot was perfect for enjoying all the north shore has to offer. The apartment was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. It was located in a quiet area of Princeville and a quick drive to anywhere we wanted to go. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The photos on the listing do not do this place justice. Every room has a breathtaking view of the ocean. During our stay we discovered that Turtle Cave is located directly below our unit via short trail located between buildings 4 & 5 -- well worth the hike down! Hideaway Beach was a short drive away and we were lucky to get parking in the beach access lot. The walk to Queen's Bath is about 20-25 minutes each way, but there is also a small parking lot there. Foodland is also nearby so it was very convenient. Hanalei is only about 12 minutes down the hill via car. The unit was quiet and had all of the amenities we needed to cook meals. No A/C but the ocean breeze kept things cool enough. Property Manager was very responsive. Parking and access was easy. We would definitely stay here again. Aloha & Mahalo.

Found place to be a bit dated and noisy. Roosters crawling keeps you awake starting 4am and it was difficult to shut close windows due to broken handles. Although the place is at a convenient location won’t stay here in future trips.

The condo is generally clean and comfortable and has a lovely view of the ocean. The pool and spa are also nice and very well maintained. The only issues were- #1 guest shower had issues with water temperature - had to crank up the cold and barely use hot water to get to a good temperature. #2 dishwasher is clearly on its las legs and wouldn't close on the last day. #3 Sliding doors wouldn't close without lifting it off the track first.

Our stay was fabulous at the home on Kapiolani! The morning sun enters the home and transports you to another world. We loved that we could walk down the street to Queen's Bath (safe only during the summer), and ride bikes around the neighborhood. It's a short drive to Hanalei Bay and all North Shore spots. The house is fully stocked and spacious for family groups with tons of beach amenities. The home sits in a quiet residential neighborhood and is an escape from the typical vacation resorts.

Location is excellent. Community is great; it has beautiful walking/running path, very close to Foodland. Check-in process was very easy. We were staying for 4 days. On day 3 we found notification about water issue on the door (the note said the issue should be for the evening only). On day 4, the water was completely off. Understandably it was unforeseen situation but there's no response from property management at all for any status updates whatsoever. The owner of the condo however, sent a thank you message for understanding several days after we left.

This listing was very accurate in its advertisement of stunning views. My wife and I loved sipping a morning coffee on the lanai, overlooking the ocean. Our kids (19 and 15) had plenty of room to spread out. We had a lot of our dinners just sitting out on the lanai, spotting turtles and birds. We hadn't been to Kauai in 26 years, and it was wonderful. My kids and I even went down the trail (be careful!) to the turtle cove and waded into the cave and saw 7 turtles! The only issue we had is that it was a little warm at night, and it wasn't during a heat wave. We have always stayed in a place that has AC in Hawaii, so we took a gamble, and it paid off with views...it was just and adjustment to sleeping with covers off, windows open and opening doors and windows to find the optimal cross-breezes. But, my family is just heat-averse, I personally was fine. The decor and furniture is a bit outdated, but that didn't bother us. Check-in was wonderful and the owner was very communicative and accommodating. We kayaked the river, swung off ropes into fresh-water pools, and did a NaPali coast boat tour with snorkeling. We will definitely want to come back to this condo.

Really did have an ocean view from every room. It would have been nice in the listing to say that there were coolers available so we wouldn't have bought one prior to checking in. Bare minimum of bathroom towels so we had to do laundry several times.

This condo has stunning northerly views of the Pacific! Overlooking Turtle Cove/Cave, we could see turtles in the water from the balcony. The hike down to the cove and cave is a bit treacherous but worth it, so beautiful!Tge condo is conveniently located near all activities on the north shore. We hope to return soon!

The property also has 2 nice bathrooms. This property was very clean and quite. Highly recommend . Easy check in.

We had a fantastic stay! The home was spotlessly clean, well-equipped with everything we needed, and in a perfect location—with incredible ocean views and the soothing sound of the waves to lull us to sleep each night. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches like beach toys and other amenities. Communication with the host was easy and responsive. Truly a seamless and enjoyable experience—highly recommend!

We enjoyed the condo. It was clean and had everything we needed. It also had a pool with a hot tub that we enjoyed and there were 4 Weber gas grills that were clean and well maintained. Nearby beaches were great as well. We would go back again. We had a great stay on Kauai.

The place was nice but, dated. Very nice art work and furniture. Neighbors above were very loud. I am not sure if they lived there are were renters. No dishwasher was fine but, as the vacation went on I was tired of washing by hand. Tradewinds and fans made the place cool enough.

We brought our daughter to HI to celebrate her high school graduation. The condo was just as described, clean and beautiful right on the coast. There are a few maintenance things that could make a big difference mainly the lighting in the master bath is bad I felt like a showered in the dark. Had to do face care and make up in the other bathroom. Could use a fan or too more because it is warm when you get back in the evenings before sunset. Otherwise great! We would definitely stay here again.

The apartment looked just like the pictures. It was beautiful, freshly remodeled, and well-designed. It was also clean, well air conditioned, and had terrific wifi. We traveled as a family of two middle-aged parents and two teenage sons. Everyone was comfortable in the apartment. The owner was always available by phone and responded immediately when we contacted her with a question. I would definitely stay here again.
