We were a family of 3, our son being 19. It was also our (at least for my husband and I) fourth time to Kauai, but our first time taking a place in Princeville. The unit was clean and comfortable, complete with everything you could possible need. The views were outstanding, the pool was never crowded; I was able to get a 45 minute lap swim in one morning without any trouble. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Communication every step of the way was excellent. Was very cooperative in allowing for an early check-in.This unit did not have AC, but we were not uncomfortable at all. Trust and believe, if the loft BR where my son slept was in any way hot, I’d have heard about it. The ceiling fans were very effective, there were additional fans available and we had a nice cross breeze. There were also a few food trucks in for convenience: A breakfast truck, brick oven pizza truck, and a Mexican food truck. There was also an on sight farmers market one morning and several other events throughout the week. Unit had boogie boards, a cooler, beach chairs, towels etc. complex had both pedal and e bike rentals via an app, tennis courts, the pool, and a small fitness room. I found it was quite nice to get up early and walk to Sealodge Beach, Queen’s Bath and Wyllie’s/Anini Beach. All within walking distance if you also feel good enough to do some short steep hikes. I’m 58 in reasonably good shape and had no problems. Thanks for the great stay!

We had a great stay here! Convenient for exploring Nepali coast, quiet, comfy bed, and loved having separate bathrooms for the two of us. The unit is a little outdated, which was fine, but we had issues with the lanai sliding doors getting stuck.

No walkable nearby beach. AC unit leaked onto carpet in bedroom and was not fixed during our stay. Patio doors do not lock and no safe available. Just ok, would not stay again or recommend

Reviewer Comments:
This is a great location. We have stayed at the cliffs twice now. The room itself is older and a little rundown, but the location in the amenities of the resort make up for it. Things were clean, the bed was soft- a memory foam mattress. Good pillows. I wish this unit would’ve had some minimum spices. We bought salt and pepper and oil and left it, but there was none. Appreciated the beach chairs. Remember, there’s no air conditioning that they had good fans in the rooms.

My wife and I stayed for 12 nights. This is our second visit to The Cliffs, but the first time in this unit. Would definitely stay in this condo again. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable bed. Loved the air conditioning in the bedroom- didn’t have that in the other condo. Great sunset views from the deck. Can’t go wrong if your looking for a nice place to stay in Princville.

We come out yearly, this year one we brought our niece for her graduation and it was her first time. She loved our views from the condo and met a special chicken that she named Maui

We had a great time at this condo in Princeville. The location was amazing - with great views of the ocean and lots of benches/chairs in the back to watch sunrise and sunsets. It never felt too hot with the glass doors open and fans running. We would definitely want to come back to this condo!

My family really enjoyed our time at the Cliffs. The unit is well equipped with a lot of little extras like boogie boards, beach chairs, and snorkel gear. My only complaint is it doesn’t have an AC unit. I knew it didn’t, but it would have been nice. That said, I’d stay again.

The musty smell was noticed upon arrival. Very strong from washing machine & all linens smelled musty. Cockroaches found first night and reported next day and the day after. We we told someone would come spray but no one did while we were there. Got a notice the day we left that they would spray 2 days after we left. We had to keep all foods in refrigerator. They were even in the dishwasher. Kitchen stopper fell apart & had to be pryed from drain. Patio furniture rusty. Door stop in bathroom gross. Bed linens old, worn and had bad odor. A Motel 6 would have been nicer. Great pool. Unable to load photos on this site will try again.

The property was beautiful and the unit was clean and everything was in working order: the beds were comfortable me and the kitchen was the best stocked with utensil and cookware that I have seen in all the rentals I have had. Check in and out was easy. Parking was a bit of a challenge. You couldn’t beat the view and if someone wants to stay in the princeville area I would recommend this unit.

We loved our stay at the Cliffs in Princeville. The apartment was spacious and clean and easily housed our family of 5. It had all of the amenities we needed including a fully stocked kitchen and laundry. The resort has a great pool that the kids loved playing in, as well as super fun tennis and pickleball courts! It is the perfect jumping off point for unforgettable adventures in Kauai!!

Had a nice stay in Princeville. The condo is well kept. It has beach chairs, umbrella and beach bag with miscellaneous snorkeling gear. There are 2 bathrooms and one bedroom. The unit does not have air conditioning but has a nice cross breeze when the windows are open. It has ceiling fans and stand alone fans, we were never too warm. It is equipped with a washer and dryer. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and dishes with a few pots and pans. There are food trucks that come to the Cliffs on certain nights. When you check in the staff gives you a calendar of events. The pizza from Carabella's was awesome. There are also bikes for rent at the complex. The only downside to this condo is waking up at 3:30 am to roosters crowing! It is Kauai and they are all over the island.

This was our first trip to Kauai, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! We have stayed in many short term rentals and this was our favorite for so many reasons. The view was absolutely breathtaking, and we loved hearing the waves crash below the cliff. It is centrally located in beautiful Princeville, which is close to great restaurants, Hanalei, and beautiful beaches. The grounds are amazing, with so much greenery. We used the pools and hot tubs everyday and really enjoyed them. The hale has everything we would ever need for our trip, including kitchenware, beach supplies, and even a first aid kit. We were thrilled to find a pineapple slicer as well! The bed and pillows were comfy as well as all the furniture. It also was relaxing to go out and sit on the chairs to watch the sunset, and there were picnic tables and grills available. We really enjoyed our trip, and would definitely stay here if we return to this amazing island.

Condo was nice but i would ask that you keep all window coverings closed for check in. The condo was so hot because the sun had been shining in all day. Once we got the doors opened and the breeze was much better.

The hosts are wonderful. Best view on the island. Great wildlife, Feral, chickens, albatross chicks, lots of birds, and whales that I could see with my binoculars from the lanai. Fully stocked condo if you like to cook.

This was a beautiful spot - great views of ocean and plant life. The chickens were fun to watch - the roosters kept us on our toes and helped us get up in the morning. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely stay at this property. It could use a deep clean due to its age, but we loved the receptionist desk, lime trees, hot tubs, and astounding ocean view. I would recommend this property.

Property fully equipped with anything you might need. When we go back to Kauai we would love to book the rental again. Only downfall of the area was we were very disappointed in the food on the North Shore, pricey and not very good.

We have stayed at The Cliffs on three prior visits, all with an ocean front condo. We chose to switch it up this year and choose another condo on the property. This unit is exactly as advertised. Clean, updated, quiet (aside from the roosters - not much you can do about that). This was a great value to be able to still enjoy the Cliffs property. The balcony has a nice garden view where the cardinals, mynas, and doves visited us every morning and dinner. Kitchen was clean and updated, bathrooms the same. Beach chairs and umbrella came in handy. Overall, fantastic experience.

We stayed at the property April 27 - May 3rd 2025 and found it to be exactly as described and shown in the pictures. The property was in immaculate condition and included everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We loved spending our mornings with coffee and breakfast on the lanai. What a magnificent view! The beach chairs, umbrellas, mats, boogie boards and coolers available to use made it easy to spend time at the beaches. The Cliffs resort is in a very good location - a beautiful neighborhood close to a walking and bike path around the golf course, close to restaurants and beaches. The resort properties and landscaping are very well maintained and offers gas BBQ grills, social activities, workout equipment, a nice pool, Pickleball courts and much more! The owners provided detailed directions to the resort and check in procedures upon arrival. We found the binder they provided with recommendations for activities and restaurants in the area very helpful.This was truly an unforgettable vacation in paradise and we hope to return again! Highly recommend staying here!

This unit had the coveted view for the Cliffs resort! We thoroughly enjoyed being on the ground level as we could not only see the beautiful ocean but when we spotted whales we quickly went out to the chairs along the cliff with the binoculars to get a closer view. I didn’t realize at first that this condo was in a resort but after we arrived I learned of the many amenities. One we enjoyed was the Monday & Friday market where locals brought their merchandise to you along with fresh fruits, veggies, coconut milk, baked goods and a food cart with breakfast. There was also concierge services that were helpful as this was our first visit to the island. Another perk was I was happy to learn that there is a wellness team onsite and I booked a massage in my condo! It was a fun a relaxing vacation. If you love birds you will enjoy all the variety.

Stayed for two weeks in this condo. We love the cliffs and all the amenities! Great location to get to so many different beaches, we love staying on the North Shore! Had a great time renting the bikes and riding to Princeville for ice cream! The condo has everything you could need. Beautiful sunsets over the bluff! We liked the privacy of the deck into the Garden view.

This was a great stay. A minor issue with the key, but easily resolved the next day. We were in Princeville with friends and family all staying within 3-4 minutes of us. This is a convenient spot if you’re staying in Princeville. The bluffs, golf course, plenty of roads for walking/running and gorgeous scenery all around. We walked to a yoga class on the bluffs of the golf course. Very close to Foodland for any grocery needs. The condo was lovely and the lanais were great for morning coffee.

The condo is on a great property and has a great layout, but could use a remodel. Nothing was broken, just old and dated. The view is really amazing, so that makes up for it. Also, they could use some new beach chairs and umbrellas....the chairs were in pretty rough shape and the umbrella were useless since they can't be screwed into the sand. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Short drive to everything on the North shore. Clean property, beautiful surroundings, and I'm my opinion, best location for unit in the complex. Bottom floor, end unit, larger patio. Easy parking too!

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying in this Princeville condo during a month long trip to Hawaii where we visited each of the 4 main islands. Of all the great places we stayed, this was probably our favorite. The condo was clean, spacious, and comfortable boasting awesome views of the ocean beyond the cliff. Very conveniently located to all the beaches and attractions of the north shore. Would absolutely love to stay here again!

This was a great studio for 2 people. The deck/lanai was incredible, felt like you were in the forest. The kitchen was well appointed with the basics & the shower was great. The unit was equipped with 2 beach chairs, 2 boogie boards & a beach umbrella - so nice for the beach. The only negative is that the TV didn't work very well. We had one stormy day and it would have been nice to be able to watch a movie .

The unit is exactly as described. Well maintained and very clean given the challenges that the tropics/proximity to the ocean create for keeping a clean/functioning place! The owner was fantastic and communicated quickly and frequently when needed. The property is great with tons of offerings, including a lovely set of pools and hot tubs. You won’t regret staying here!

This condo has beautiful views that allowed us to feel Hawaii even as we relaxed "at home" in between outings. The property had everything we needed to be comfortable and prepare meals at home; and the property owners were very helpful and available for any of our questions.

This condo is positioned perfectly. The primary bedroom windows and lanai make for lush garden views and the ocean views from living and kitchen are amazing. Beds were comfy enough and they had a stocked kitchen. We loved this condo and would book it again. My only issue was the condo didn’t feel super super clean. The linens were definitely washed and clean but the floors felt a bit dingy. This is more of a housekeeping issue than overall the condo experience.

The property itself was great. We had a lovely time. The unit was well stocked and very comfortable for my family. After traveling all day, however, it was frustrating to not be able to check in at 4:00 as expected. We had to wait till almost 5:00 to get into the unit. The front desk staff was helpful in allowing us to put our groceries in their fridge/freezer so we didn't lose everything we bought.

What a cool find! We stayed at the Cliffs in mid-April, and were pleasantly surprised with our experience. The condo was comfortable, clean, and well-decorated. We loved sitting outside to eat breakfast. And the property was GORGEOUS, with so many amenities. Beautiful pool area, bikes to rent, pickle ball/tennis courts, basketball, etc—but my favorite were the Adirondack chairs overlooking the cliffs. Just a gorgeous place to sit at sunset. We were in awe! We also loved the small market they had in the rec room one morning—fresh foods, crafts, etc. This was our favorite place to stay on the island! We were also close to Hideaways Beach, our favorite. Thanks for the best time in Princeville!

The property was well stocked and had all the amenities we needed for a week long stay with our toddler. We loved waking up and exploring the grounds from the floor level entry and had more than enough space in the condo for our family. We’d definitely stay again at this condo and at the Cliffs Resort!

We had a wonderful stay at this condo! The unit was well-equipped with great amenities that made our time here comfortable and easy. We especially appreciated the quiet, dark master bedroom—it was perfect for restful sleep. The air conditioner and fan kept the room at a comfortable temperature and provided the bonus of soothing white noise. Overall, a fantastic place to stay—we’d definitely come back!

We have stayed at these condos several times in the past and rented many units from vrbo. The facilities were excellent but the unit itself is badly in need of refurbishment. Furniture old, worn and dirty, leaking bath faucets, dishwasher didn't work, no safe for valuables. Generally disappointing, especially for the premium price.
