I am a first-time VRBO user. Every single expectation of mine was met - to world class standards. The property itself was not only immaculate, but also exceedingly well thought out for every single item included in the condo. We cook and bake; this particular condo included absolutely everything we ever wanted. The grounds were fantastic. The pool and hot tub were better than at any hotel for safety and cleanliness. This particular condo in the Pali Ke Kua property is one that I can recommend without any reservations. World class experience. Felt like a home away from home.

Location was great! Short drive to Hanalei Bay! Spectacular sunsets across the bay! Nice kitchen and dinette areas. Could use an upgrade to closet doors and screens to the patio. TV was very small. Just a couple of tweaks and good to go! We would stay again.

The property grounds were very well manicured. The pool area was gorgeous. The check-in lobby area was also absolutely gorgeous. The only negative was there not being a restaurant on-site or in the immediate area. The food trucks on site were crazy spendy for the small portions ($15 for two snack size tacos). We cooked many of our meals using the kitchen, which had everything we needed.

The condo was in a very nice area and was nicely appointed. The view of the sunset every evening was amazing and there was a fantastic breeze coming in from the ocean. There is also a beach right below the condo with a walkway down to it. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Our view was amazing. We were able to watch the sunset from our lanai every evening. You can also walk to Hideaway Beach from the property. Great pizza place right on the property as well. The condo was well appointed and very clean. Had everything by we needed and the breezes coming in from the ocean were wonderful!

The condo is as advertised and was close enough to everything yet far enough away that we had privacy.
We would have given all categories a five star rating but the check in process feels archaic and old. To have to stop at the office to pick up the keys and to have to drop them off is a bit inconvenient when you are traveling from out of town. It added a layer of stress that isn’t necessary if the condo has a key box or code to enter.

We had a fabulous vacation at this Pali Ke Kua condo. We have stayed in various PKK units in the past. This one was super clean with good amenities, and a fantastic view of Bali Hai and Hanalei Bay area. We also found Kauai Vacation Rentals to be super to work with. We left a wallet in the unit, and the housekeeper got it to the office, who had it FedEx shipped to us. Terrific service. We plan to return as soon as we can!

We have stayed at this complex many times. First time staying in this specific unit. View from the living room/back porch is spectacular. Since this is the first building and really no where to walk to behind the building, we didn’t see many people passing by out back as you do with the other buildings in the complex so felt a bit more private. Quick snorkel beach access via the mostly paved walking path down the cliff right next to the building. Also a reasonable walk to Queens Bath and the beach next to the hotel at the end of the road. Cooked half of our meals in the kitchen and had all the equipment, bowls, etc. we needed. Found Princeville had multiple open air / farmer/ craft markets during our stay over the week which we hadn’t noticed in prior years. Easy drive to the grocery story and some restaurants in Princeville.

Very well organized rental experience. Good communication and instructions pre-arrival. Felt much more confident renting through Kauai Vacation Rentals than VRBO or Airbnb.Property was as described and very clean. All appliances were working well and appear to have been recently upgraded. Bathroom could use a partial remodel - new shower head, toilet seat doesn't fit toilet, new sink faucet. Minor stuff and did not detract from the whole.

We enjoyed our stay at Pali Ke Kua. Check-in was easy. Had a snafu because our unit was beneath one that was being remodeled and it was noisy, but management gave us a new unit immediately. The views from the units of Hanalea Bay and the ocean are spectacular and we were visited by the Nenes in front of our unit ever morning. Unit was clean and well-appointed.

Reviewer Comments:
The property was decent and part have been updated, but some areas really need a refresh. For example, the bathroom vanity had been updated but the flooring, closets and shower were very weathered. The doors on the closet didn't close all the way and were out of the sliding track when we arrived. I was able to pop one back in but it just kept popping out, making the entry into the bathroom tight to navigate since it's next to the door.The shower head sprayed every which way, which was a little tricky but usable. The floors in the bathroom and kitchen both need to be updated or at least given a thorough cleaning. I spilled some water from the fridge filter and when I wiped it up the paper towels came up black (and this was on the day we arrived - eek!)The location is great, the views from the lanai can't be beat, but they're really relying on the location to get by with the less than desirable parts of the property. Just felt a bit overpriced for the quality.

My husband and I recently spent our 25th anniversary on Kaua'i. We spent the first half of our trip in Princeville at the lovely and perfectly located Pali Ke Kua. This property has amazing views and is located within walking distance of beaches, a golf course, other resorts, walking trails and it has a great on-property restaurant. Nourish is a darling little lunch spot a very close drive away. There is so much to love about this spot and we will revisit!

This condo was perfect for my friends attending our wedding. Great ocean and Bali Hai views. Nice to be able to walk out onto lawn. Close to the trail to walk down to beach. Very very nice beach below the condos. Steep walk back up but the path is concrete and has benches if people need to rest. Condo nicely furnished and everything worked. Decent breeze through the condo at night but still needed an ac unit in the bedroom in Oct.

Comfortable place with fantastic views of Hanalei Bay and Bali Hai. Great location next to a walking path down to the beach and not far from another path down to Hideaway Beach. Good value. Comfortable bed and nice kitchen. Easy parking. Beach umbrella and chairs were available which was appreciated. Friendly nenes hang out on the lawn! Some features of the condo are a bit dated but no big deal.

This unit has the best view you could imagine, and a newly renovated kitchen and bathroom vanity. We sipped our coffee from the lanai every morning and watched the light change over mountains beyond Hanalei Bay. Kitchen was fully stocked, so cooking at home was easy. The private beach access trail to Hideaway Beach made for a beautiful morning. We would stay here again.It’s the perfect spot for a couple to unwind.

Our stay was perfect... the views right out the back door were tremendous (I’m a photographer and captured the perfect sunset). The condo was very clean, quiet, and well-taken care of. A short location to Hideaways beach and Queens bath made the stay very convenient. A bonus which we were unaware of: there is a private path to an ocean front area just below the condo. Excellent management staff and easy pickup / drop off. We’ve stayed at locations around the world. This is among our favorites. We have already recommended the condo and Kauai Vacation Rentals to family and friends. Thank you for hosting a perfect vacation!

The unit is situated where you see the sunset and moonlight from the lanai. Incredible view of the beginning of Na Pali coast. Unit is under equipped needs better kitchen utensils and is a bit dated with no chair cushions at dining table and lanai. I would rent another unit if I were to return.

This is such wonderful property rental and just what we needed to relax and rewind for our stay. We loved waking up to the beautiful sight and sound of the sea. The bedroom was cozy, the kitchen was perfect to make our own meals and the lanai was super relaxing to just chill and enjoy the view. The checkin process was easy and I really appreciated the phone call from the property management rep to answer any our questions. The only issue we had was that we could sometimes hear the upstairs tenants (especially when the sliding doors to the lanai were open) but except this, we loved our stay. We also highly recommend the walk down to the beach which is really secluded and was not busy at all when we went during our stay.

This is a sparkling clean condo. The kitchen is completely updated with high end stainless steel appliances and it is stocked remarkably well. All of the furniture is comfortable. The neighborhood is well manicured and location absolutely can not be beat. After all of that, the best part is the view. We saw whales daily from our patio.

The views are outstanding. The unit was nicely maintained and cleaned. The property is well landscaped so even walking to and from the parking lot was beautiful. Having such a great view made it feel like no downtime was wasted. The little landscaped areas on either side of the lanai made it feel more private from the neighbors. We liked the pair of nene that hung around the patio (but don't feed them). The picture in the listing does not show that there is a desk and a chair on the far wall, which we appreciated having. Would definitely stay again!

Can’t beat location. Just the ocean in front of you. Hideaways beach below is beautiful. Quick drive to Hanalei if you tome the road construction right.
