Above all,the view from the window was amazing.The only disappointing thing was that the disposer suddenly stopped working the day before we left.I was satisfied with everything else,so if I have a chance,I would like to stay here again.

Beautiful, spacious, well-equipped condo in a stunning location. The condo was immaculate, is tastefully decorated and stocked with everything you need for beach fun. The view is amazing. Management was extremely accommodating. It was a wonderful stay!

We are a senior couple who was looking for a beautiful and comfortable co do to celebrate our 30th anniversary. This 2 bedoom, 2 bath home is completely comfortable and the close ocean view will give you the feeling of a huge balcony on a cruise ship. The water is RIGHT there but you are on a bluff above it. The waves crash below and any sea "action" is easily visable. The Princeville neighborhood is magical and our favorite part of Kauai. So much to see and do in nearby Hanalei.

This is a beautiful condominium. We loved that all main rooms face the ocean. The master bedroom is spacious and the unit is well equipped. I would certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to visit the Princeville area.

Loved the location, to see and hear the ocean we felt like we were in a tree house ! We loved the old Hawaiian vibe from the one story condo to the furniture and art. We would love to come back !
November 2023
The place was very clean and the view is spectacular . The only complaint, when we arrived at Alikai it's just hard to find the Condo Number. It's very dark. I think, We went to 3 different doors to check the 6102 because the numbers are not very visible ! Over all , we enjoyed the place. We took care of the place just like our own home( strip the bedsheets and washed including all the towels . We made sure , we clean the kitchen. We will be back!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ali’i Kai! The unit was spotlessly clean and very well appointed. The layout of the floor plan is spacious and efficient, with a very nice (and large for size of the unit) master suite. I agree with another review I had read about this property, that the pictures do not do it justice. We would definitely stay in this unit again, if/when we return to the North Shore of Kauai.

This property was perfect for our family of 4! The view was amazing, and the house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Check in was easy and the place was even better than in the pictures. We loved the quiet community and the location to surrounding towns was great!

We absolutely loved our stay. Very clean and well-appointed, this condo has the best location! No units above or below. Gorgeous view of the ocean. The lanai is huge and we loved sitting outside. It runs the full length of the condo and overlooks a tropical garden full of birdsong every morning with lovely pastel-colored sunrises. Parking is a few steps from the front door. Pool is close by and well-kept and we swam everyday. Community sitting area on a grassy hill that offers unobstructed views and wonderful sunsets. Close to everything in Princeville. Restaurants, stores, etc., yet condo property is very private. No A/C, but with the windows open and ceiling fans and constant ocean breezes, we thought the temp was always perfect. We can’t wait to return next year!!! Also, we enjoyed Hanalei Bay and the drive to the west, over the many little bridges and past the many beaches, to the end of the road. We highly recommend Smith’s Family Luau and Fern Grotto Riverboat Cruise to the south. Also loved the Kilohana Plantation Railway train ride—don’t miss it! Lots to do and see there.

My family of four thoroughly enjoyed staying here. We could wake up to the sunrise and the sound of the ocean, given the property overlooks the ocean. We basically had the pool to ourselves whenever we used it, and it was great for us and two elementary school kids. The beach toys, towels and chairs came in very handy. Wilds stay here again.

Everything was as stated in the listing, but the views overlooking the ocean from the spacious deck exceeded our expectations with whale and dolphin sightings most mornings and evenings. Parking was never a problem. Beds and linens were excellent. Furniture was comfortable, spacious and internet was easy and plentiful - we brought a Roku and used it to stream TV shows without problems. Well-stocked kitchen with island was in excellent shape and easy to use for preparing and serving meals and appliances including laundry all worked well. Shared outdoor grill was in front of the adjacent building and heated quickly with good instructions. Clean bathrooms and showers and nice towels. Two comfy beach chairs and large beach towels for sitting on in the warm tropical sun. Checkin and checkout was effortless and e-mail communication was thorough, so no back and forth needed. The big highlight was location. 1.5 mile walk to Hideaway’s beach and it’s impossibly small parking lot. Slightly less to Queen’s Bath, which was closed for the winter during our visit. Very close to Turtle Cove - read the online warnings and advice about this trail as it is more treacherous than the Hideaway’s trail and should not be attempted when wet. Short drives to Hanalei and all the rest of the North shore and it’s excellent beaches, views and experiences. Highly recommended!

The condo has a fabulous view of the ocean. We weee able to see whale activity every day.
The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well supplied. My only complaint is that I wish the knives were sharpened.

When I rent a place for 11 days I need to have more then 2 rolls of toilet paper. The rental price here isn't cheap so I really think it's a reasonable request.

The view was fantastic once they removed the trees blocking the view. The tree trimmers did this on the third day of our stay. The king bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was reasonable stocked. Everything worked. Overall it was the best location we have ever stayed at in Kauai.
Never communicated with property manager so can't rate that

The property and location was amazing, views spectacular, whale watching sunsets, quiet area.
The home was adequately prepared, and overall clean.

This is a clean, well maintained, updated property which shows pride of ownership. The condo was exactly as described in the listing. The check in process was very simple and Arrived was very prompt to respond with any questions/requests during our stay. The kitchen is adequately stocked with utensils for cooking and there are several gas grills available in the complex for grilling. Located on Kauai's North Shore about 45 mins from the Lihue airport, Princeville is a very peaceful town away from the hustle and bustle of the east and south sides of Kauai. There is a large grocery store in Princeville that stocked everything needed during our stay but would suggest shopping the better prices at Costco/Walmart in Lihue prior to driving up to Princeville.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and found everything we needed to cook and to take. Are of the condo.
A minor item; the bathtub drain stopper in the hallway bathroom is broken.
Also, the instructions for the tvs (under the glass on tables) are not correct.
Ofherwise…. Heavenly! Mahalo nui. We will tell our friends.

The condo was very comfortable and nicely furnished. I do need to
Say that in my opinion the owner really needs to update some small small appliances, newer linens. Like a toaster oven and definitely replacing towels and sheets. They appear to have been around a long time. Otherwise we really enjoyed our time in Kauai and this condo.

Our family of 3 had an amazing time in your home. The home was beautiful and included everything a guest would need. The kitchen had everything including a 12-cup coffee maker for us to enjoy our Kauai Coffee! The beds were so comfortable and the temperature at night was perfect for a pleasant nights sleep! The beautiful view from every room was amazing! We were so thankful for the beach chairs, towels and umbrella. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. We'll be back!

Comfortably sized rooms with comfortable furnishings. Amazing views, lovely birdsong in the morning. Wonderful location. Close to Hideaway's Pizza (don't miss it) and the perfect sunset spot. Beaches are close by too. A perfect easy stay. Excellent service from Arrived. Everything was immaculate when we arrived, and softer pillows were delivered almost immediately when we said we wished they were available.
Good value for the price.
We would absolutely stay here again!

I stayed a week with my wife, adult daughter and her friend. The condo was clean and fairly updated. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us and the two full bathrooms worked well. Our bed was very comfortable and the views are fantastic. We were able to watch whales from the balcony with the binoculars provided by the unit. We used the cooler and beach chairs that came with the unit. Parking was very convenient, we had the space right in front of the unit all week. We never felt the need for AC as the unit has a nice cross breeze. The only very minor thing that needs addressed is the folding door in the master bath. The handle has fallen off and it is difficult to open once you’ve fully closed it. Overall our stay was excellent and I would absolutely recommend the unit.

Comfortable place 200 feet above the Pacific and close to amenities in Princeville and Hanalei along with exceptional recreational opportunities close by in a tropical garden setting. Very comfortable and restful. Only thing we would knock, and this minor, is the micro-sized coffee pot. Well worth it. You’ll enjoy your stay.

As I'm sure you already know, we arrived after dark, because our flight was delayed. We first thought the Unit did not have a number on it, making it near impossible to find in that very dark time. In the daylight, we did see a small number, hardly visible from anywhere. We looked at night again, and the porch light casts a shadow where the small number is, making it impossible to see even when you re right there. I would suggest much bigger numbers, and even a 6 on the building, so it could be seen from the road. There is a road sign that includes buildings 5-6, but at night it would be much better to have a number on each building. In case you think I keep mentioning the numbers, you have to know that it is very DARK in that area.
The Unit only has a small 4 cup coffee pot. For four people who drank coffee, it would be too small. For the two of us, it was not adequate.
A second issue is that in the shower/tub bathroom, there are no grab bars. This is a real safety issue. A couple of them would make that area much more safe.
A bigger issue for us, is that after trying our hearts out, we could not get the TV to work. We finally called someone on Sunday—number on our paper work. They ran us through trying everything, and nothing worked. May be the modum. He ( my friend did not get a name) said he would see what he could do and get back to us. We waited all that afternoon and never did hear from him. We never did hear from him period. Not very good customer service. We certainly did not spend our week in front of the tv, but in the evening or early morning we like to hear the news. This time, there could have been a tsunami, but we only heard about it from the mainland.
I have stayed in the Alii Kai complex for several years and have never had issues.
We had a lovely Unit and appreciated it, but just a few things cropped up this trip. When we go again, we will stay with Alii Kai because it seems like our Kauai'i home. These suggestions above would not deter us from staying there again, but we hope you might take our suggestions seriously. Thank you. Mary Kelly. 12-19 January, 22

We saw whales from the balcony when having coffee one day. Love the 1 story factor.. very quiet neighbors. Close to all amenities. We walked to the store for coffee most mornings (3.8 miles per Apple Watch round trip). Paradise.. loved it.

A magical experience! From the minute we stepped in the door and walked out on the lanai we knew we were going to love our stay. The view alone makes this unit an outstanding choice. We found everything that we needed and felt extremely comfortable staying here. The grounds are beautiful and the location is spectacular if you want to get away from it all but still be close to Hanalei. We would love to stay here again if we ever have the chance to be back in the area. Our group was a little concerned that there was no air conditioning quickly realized it was not needed because it has such a beautiful cross breeze! Thank you for amazing accommodations while we were staying on the beautiful island of Kauai!!

The location overlooking the ocean was wonderful. The unit was very nice, with comfortable furniture and a large screen TV in the living room and a smaller one in the primary bedroom. The kitchen was well equipped, including a washer and dryer. I couldn't have asked for more.

We stayed at the condo for 5 nights and had such a wonderful time! Being oceanfront, feeling the cool breezes and hearing the waves at night helped lull us to sleep. The condo was clean and we had everything we needed for a great vacation. It was especially nice that there are coolers and chairs provided for taking along on our adventures!

We had a great time at the condo. It had everything we needed for cooking, a ton of towels, it was clean and comfortable. The lanai is awesome, I would have my breakfast there every morning overlooking the ocean, easy check-in/check-out, I did not have to contact the host at all, everything was just working flawlessly.
It has a dishwasher and a washer/dryer.
The location is great and very quiet, close to 2 awesome hikes (turtle cove and queen's bath)

The views from the lanai and ALL the inside rooms are spectacular. The pictures don't do the location justice. With the occasional rains, it was nice to still be able to enjoy the oceanfront from the inside. The kitchen was well-equipped, which came in handy with the limited dining on the Northshore. The local Foodland store is a good source for both prepared foods as well as your typical grocery items. The location is convenient to all of the beaches and other activities. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend time on the Northshore of Kauai.

I loved my stay here. The condo was comfort and fit our needs. The area is quiet and serene, best for adults but would would well with other kiddos. The extra fans helped since there’s no AC. The rare winds also helped to keep us cool. Can’t wait to come back.

Loved our stay in this condo. 5th time to Kauai and this condo had the best amenities of anywhere we stayed and it made our trip that much more enjoyable. Quiet area, fabulous ocean views with sunrise from the master bedroom in the morning and a tremendous view of the sunset. Will recommend this condo to others and would love to stay again.

This is a lovely home with fantastic ocean views. We enjoyed every moment that we spend at this beautiful home. The ocean view through the living rooms and bedrooms are amazing. The condo is well equipped with all you need to relax and experience Kauai in its natural settings. I would highly recommend this place.
I would recommend the property managers to update the check-in instructions. The address/check-in instructions supposed to say Building 6 house 102 or at least 6-102. But the instruction says house "6102". We spent about 20 mins in the heavy rain driving around Ali Kai buildings looking for Home 6102!!!

The apartment we stayed was clean, had very good furniture, all necessary (and good quality) utensils and ocean view as promised. We are grateful for beach gear provided - really useful! The complex is a bit old and not very well maintained: the pool is just cement hole with no underwater light, the pool area is not well lit in the evening (I was actually hoping to hang with my little one in the pool while cooking dinner on the grill, but it was not safe in the darkness); the grills are old and partially broken, so the temperature is not even (and not high enough).
Overall, the accommodation and location was great - the local shopping center with Foodland and local shops (ice-cream!) around the corner, beautiful beaches in just few minutes drive. We loved it!
