What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Travelers overwhelmingly rave about Sealodge’s setting: perched on an oceanfront bluff in quiet Princeville, it delivers panoramic blue-on-blue views, spectacular sunrises, moonrises and starry skies, and the soothing sound of waves day and night. Many guests watch whales, turtles, seabirds and surfers right from bed or the lanai, and love the easy access to Hanalei, Anini, Kīlauea and other North Shore highlights. Units are generally well stocked (beach chairs, towels, coolers; many with in‑unit washer/dryers and functional kitchens), and plenty of reviewers found their condos spotless, comfortable, and exactly as advertised—some recently renovated and thoughtfully furnished.

A signature perk is the trail to secluded Sealodge Beach: guests call it a gem for snorkeling and turtle sightings, while noting the path can be steep, muddy and slippery after rain—better for those sure on their feet and proper shoes. The complex vibe is peaceful and low-key; roosters are part of the island soundtrack, parking can be tight at times, and there are stairs to many units. Shared amenities are simple: charcoal BBQs (bring charcoal), and a modest pool that’s been intermittently closed for repairs; when open, it’s fine for a dip but not a resort-style centerpiece.

As a classic older complex, exteriors look weathered and individual condos vary: some are beautifully updated, others feel dated or could use TLC. Most units do not have air conditioning; ocean breezes and fans usually keep things comfortable, but some guests find afternoons warm, especially in summer—book a renovated or AC-equipped unit if that matters to you. Recurring nitpicks include sticky windows/screens or blinds, occasional appliance hiccups, daytime construction or neighbor noise here and there, and the usual tropical visitors (ants/roaches) or mustiness in a few units. Experiences with managers skew positive and responsive, though communication can be hit-or-miss across different owners. Overall, if your priority is jaw-dropping views, a quiet North Shore base, and you’re okay with an older, condo-style property, Sealodge delivers strong value and an unforgettable setting.

We stayed here for one week in June, 2025. We enjoyed the view from the deck and the living room window overlooking the coast. The condo was very clean, the bed was very comfortable and it was nice to be able to do laundry during our stay.

My husband and I booked 3 nights here for half of our stay in Kauai. The buildings do not look very nice but the inside of the unit is great! The view of the ocean and greenery is absolutely beautiful. Just a few things while we were here— it gets so hot throughout the day, even with an extra fan we brought ourselves and the breeze coming through the windows it was very hard to cool off. The light in the bathroom went out during our stay but we know that it will be taken care of before the next person gets here. There is also a gap in one of the windows when you open it to the screen so we just left that one closed during our stay. Other than that it was fantastic and they provided us with everything we needed. If we could get used to sleeping with no AC, we would definitely stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The view from the lanai & master bed are beyond words. Well stocked, clean, comfy & did I mention the view?!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First of all, this rental is in a BEAUTIFUL location. You can’t beat the views and you are close to the charming area of Hanalei. The rental was clean. However, the bedding in the master bedroom smells like mildew. I switched pillows as the manager advised, but found that all the pillows and pillowcases smelled the same. It did not bother my husband, but it bothered me. The dishwasher did not work as well.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Place was beautiful, exceeded our expectations; however, the on-site dryer failed, we reported it to the management company 5 days before we left and yet they charged us for not washing their bath towels. A cheap shot for a two week stay. P.S. there are no public laundry near this location.

Over all it was poor. When we checked in there several dead bugs around the apartment. Including a 4 inch centipede. The TV did not work. Tried with Jerry, property manger, to get it fixed. That did not happen. The apartment is quite rundown. The only redeeming quality of the place was the view. That was great. I wish I knew that there was no AC in the apartment.

If you love the ocean, this is the place for you. Direct ocean view from the lanai and ocean and coast view from the sitting room. Comfortable and attractive condo with all you need for a great stay. Location between Hanalei and Kīlauea is ideal. Communication with the owner was quick and informative.

Very nice and beautiful apartment. View from windows is amazing.

Pros: -sunrise view is DEVINE-listening to the sound of waves crashing while you fall asleep is even more Devine-kitchen is fully equipped to cook meals-lanai is spacious enough for 4 people to eat the the outdoor table-in-unit washer and dryer work great-plenty of space for our party of 3 adults and 2 teenagers-easy 15 minute drive to Hanalei-fans provided for all sleeping areas-did I mention how close the ocean is???Cons:-My son was grossed out when we saw a hair on the bedsheets of the daybed when we checked in. No idea if they weren’t washed, or if it was a stray hair from the cleaners, but it definitely didn’t belong to us. -the BBQ grill listed in the amenities is a charcoal grill, and charcoal is not provided. Seriously??-we chose not to use the pool because it looked very unimpressive-there is only a curtain separating the primary bedroom from the living room (where the daybed is located). This was fine for our family, but mentioning it because it could be a concern for some. Overall, the pros far outweighed the cons, and we’d happily stay here again.

Property is in a wonderful area and the secluded Sealodge beach is a jewel. Property is due for a facelift. Especially the bathroom/tub. This is referring to condition of the facilities only. Everything was very clean. The AC was inadequate and the room stayed warm regardless if we kept everything shut up and blinds pulled or tried opening the windows at night for a sea breeze. Overall we were pleased with our stay and the owner was easy to work with and replied promptly with concerns.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you only care about location, this rental is great. If you care about the condition of where you stay, it is not a good place. It is neglected, not properly maintained, very dated & not kept up as it should be. I travel often, so can tell when people care & when they don't. The longer we stayed, the more we could tell the condition of the unit reflects that they only do the bare minimum.

Beautiful view! I was worried when I saw no a/c but amazing breezes with windows open and fans to help push the air around inside. Only neighborhood noise is the roosters at 530 am - and then all day long. Princeville is at least an hour away from anything else on the island but a wonderful getaway from the rush of the city.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A little outdated but no complaints. Comfy bed, clean, really well equipped kitchen, quiet complex. Nice overlook bench by the Managers Building. Just a note that if you're booking thinking you'll have beach access via the trail, the trail requires some rock climbing to get to the water and is moderately hard.

We enjoyed our stay. The condo area was very quiet and centrally located to the areas we wanted to visit. Parking got a little tight sometimes, but we were able to work around it. Overall, we would recommend it to our friends, and have already.

We loved our stay. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet. We loved that the trail head to sea Lodge Beach was just outside our door. It is a beautiful beach. The views from our condo were excellent too!

It was a spectacular place with a wonderful view of the ocean. Watching the sunrise on the lanai was terrific. Enjoyed watching the change of tides and sea turtles swimming below and albatrosses soaring by.

We had a fantastic vacation in this unit. The sunrise and sunset views from the bluff in front of the unit are unobstructed. The unit was plenty spacious for me, my wife, our 9 and 10 year old daughters and their grandmother. There was plenty of bedding, beach towels, and snorkel gear. We could never find a WiFi password but which wasn’t all that important to us though. This was a fantastic, safe, affordable unit and we hope to be back someday!

This is a nice condo complex between Hanalei and Kilauea on Kauai’s north shore. The unit is on the top floor with a lovely view of the mountains and a partial ocean view. A short walk leads you to a full ocean view which is also an amazing spot for watching both the sunrise and sunset. The condo is very comfortable and nicely decorated. Communication with the off-site owner is easy, and she is very prompt with answering questions and addressing problems. Parking is very convenient, and access is simple through use of a keypad.

The apartment was great and the view absolutely amazing. The apartment was clean and stocked with towels, kitchen items and beach items (umbrella chairs snorkels, etc). The TV was huge and the AC did the job. But we mostly had it off and the windows open when there as the breeze coming off the ocean was so refreshing.

A soft landing to a beautiful island! The condo is centrally located with access to a variety of activities and restaurants. Saw a rainbow almost every day from the condo. Got to explore many areas, took a couple of good hikes near by. Visited coffee plantation, pineapple plantation, Hindu temple, Poipu Beach, boat tour to Fern Grotto, enjoyed the roosters,chickens and birds eating with us at the restaurants.

Just loved this little love nest. So private, but we had great neighbors! Place was clean and had a trail head near by so we could navigate to the beach area. Kind of a tricky hike so it stays pretty quiet. Kitchen was stocked well. And having a washerand dryer was amazing. I won't pack near as many clothes next time!Mahalo!Robin

Our stay at this oceanside rental in Princeville was enjoyable and met our expectations. The highlight was undoubtedly the breathtaking ocean views, which created a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The location was convenient, close to local attractions and beaches, making it easy to explore the area. While the decor and furnishings were somewhat dated, they were functional and clean. The kitchen was equipped with basic appliances, making meal prep convenient. Overall, this rental provided a pleasant stay with beautiful scenery. If you're looking for a simple and comfortable place to enjoy the natural beauty of Kauai's northern coast, this is a good option.

However, 2nd best is to be able to visit. Been coming to Kauai annually since 1987 and stayed in numerous homes all over this beautiful island. This condo has become our "we must return" place. Thanks for sharing, dear Wood family. Mahalo and Aloha, MaryLou in Hercules

Our visit to Sealodge G6 was absolutely fabulous! The condo is wonderful with all the amenities you need. Such a bonus to have our own washer and dryer. The room was always bright with a wall of windows to enjoy the beautiful ocean views. We even watched sea turtles and a ray swimming in the waters below. I was concerned about not having Ac, but it was a non-issue. You open the windows or balcony door anytime of day or night and the condo is filled with lovely cooling ocean breezes. This is truly a dream vacation spot!

We enjoyed our stay at this location and the views are spectacular. Lounging on the day bed with 180 degree views of the ocean was our favorite part. The kitchen, bathroom, curtains, bedding, beds, washer/dryer, etc. could use a refresh. However, the price was reasonable and we appreciated that. The medium difficulty walk to the beach below was really cool too.

This is a very clean, lovely apartment in a great location. The only thing I did not like about the apartment is that the bathroom doors are like closet doors. The door is not solid, so there’s not much privacy. Other than that, it was a great apartment.

What a wonderful week we spent in this condo! The view is fantastic! I got up for every sunrise in the morning. Many afternoons we preferred Happy Hour at the condo rather than going out. Beside the hard-to-beat view, the condo is quiet and well-equipped. The beach supplies were especially appreciated (chairs, umbrella, towels, snorkeling gear.) We hiked down the hill to the secluded SeaLodge beach several times; one time sharing the ocean with three green turtles!
