Leslie was quick to answer and take care of unexpected issues like a broken can opener and beach chair. The apartment offered everything we needed and was close to the north shore beaches we wanted to enjoy.
Thank you so much for everything.

Pro, cute place, every appliance you could want, basket full of goodies. Thoughtful. Cons gap on door, bugs could get in, (gecko did)screen door needs a lock that works and if you are a bath person mold around the lower tub. Only notice if you use the bath.

This was a good location for close proximity to the north shore activities. Lots of great beaches to explore as well as good stores and restaurants. Unfortunately for us the liquid sunshine far surpassed the normal sunshine but that cannot be helped.

This was a great home base for day trips to explore all of Kauai! Clean and convenient. Pretty heavy traffic noise 7am to 9pm, but didn't detract too much.
Thanks for a great stay!

If you sleep like a rock, this place is probably great! We loved the location close to Hanalei and appreciated all of the beach gear and snacks left for us. The studio is well equipped, especially if you're planning on eating out. We stayed in this studio for 3 nights and struggled with sleeping, despite traveling with earplugs and sleep masks. Between the road noise, the loud box fan, and the roosters, it was tough for us to get a full night's rest.

The stay was everything we could ask for! Nearby a ton of shops, very comfortable, kithcenette and snacks, plenty of utensils and cookware and the best part was the beach gear that we were able to use! Thank you so much for making our stay cozy and welcoming <3

Had an amazing time on the North shore. We were so fortunate to have nice weather to be able to do everything on our list. Did the 4 mile Kalalau trail (regardless of muddy slippery trail) and explored many beaches. Even swam with sea turtles! Tried local food end enjoyed the craft markets. Met friendly people everywhere. Recommend to our family and friends for it rugged beauty.

Having family in Hanalei is a wonderful thing however, this is the first time my husband and I were on our own! Lucky to find this charmer a year ago. There for a family wedding, this was the perfect place to settle into between socializing and enjoying a beautiful life event! The owners were so communicative with any issues prior to our arrival and would have let us check out a bit later if cleaning crew was not scheduled to arrive for next guests. The complex is one of the original in Princeville beautifully landscaped with the nicest people! The condo was nicely appointed with lovely little touches that really gave you the feeling of Aloha! Only downside we had to return to NJ. But hope awaits and we have decided to return to this adorable hideaway on our next trip to Paradise! Mahalo from Atlantic City Rosanne and Tom Morhauser.

We had a great experience from start to finish. Our hosts were super responsive and helpful with our questions and requests, they even let us check in early since the condo was ready. I don't cook when I'm away from home, so not having a full kitchen was not a big deal at all, but they do have a hot plate with pots/pans/utensils. We had yummy treats, coffee and water left for us as well. Super close to Hanalei and local shops, dining, views and beaches. I would definitely come back again.

The condo is very well equipped and maintained. But it is very loud due to traffic noise. The condo is located just beside a road with a lot of traffic beginning at 6am till 10pm. Unfortunately the closed window didn't helped at all. For us it wasn't the right place.

My husband and I spent one pleasant week at this property in Kahui. It was just the right size for the two of us. Because our daughter’s family was staying just down the road, we are most meals there and were out and about with them.

We we're pleasantly surprised at how nice this accommodation was for the cost. We'll equipped & set in a beautiful spot, just 10 minutes drive to the most beautiful spot on the island Hanalei Beach. We had a couple of small issues, but Mike & Leslie remedied in super quick time ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from us

I would recommend Mike and Leslie’s space. The hosts were very nice and easy to reach during our stay. Excellent location - close to many beaches and shops. The lack of AC turned out to be no problem at all, the space gets a nice cool breeze. Just enough space for two people to enjoy the North shore for any period of time.

Michael and Leslie's place was a convenient, comfortable and cost-effective place to stay for our vacation! It was very close to a grocery store, Hanalei, other beaches and multiple farmer's markets. They were friendly, easy to communicate with and helpful. There were a few areas where things could have been a bit cleaner (box fan, ice maker water tank, shower drain guard, shower curtain rod was rusted) but the most important aspects - bed and kitchen area - were clean. There were a few things that were falling apart a bit (1 boogie board cracked, beach umbrella seems to be missing a piece, window screens by the bed - 1 was broken and they could use some cleaning, screen door to the balcony seems to come off the tracks easily). There is more road noise than you would expect from that road at night. We still slept fine but if someone is very sensitive to that they may not want to choose this place. When watching Netflix the audio was off time from the actors mouths - suspect due to internet speed? One night we were able to stream a basketball game on a laptop fine and the other night it was very glitchy. The kitchenette was great for making meals but keep in mind if you make a big meal it can be a bit of a challenge to wash pots, cutting boards and a lot of dishes in the small sink. Just a few easy areas for improvement and things to keep in mind but overall we really enjoyed our stay, think it was a great value and thank them for having us!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Michael and Leslie; they were the kindest hosts I’ve had in any of my stays and I will come back to the unit any time I’m in Hawaii! The apartment is exactly as described and is a great affordable option in an expensive place. We found everything we needed and had a perfect stay :)

We were overall relatively happy. Disappointed that we had to provide our own toilet paper, kleenex, and paper towels. We didn't realize that the street traffic noise was very loud throughout the entire night as there was no Air - Conditioning in the condo consequently all windows and doors had to remain open to access the westerly winds. The ceiling fans had no lights in them consequently the lighting in the property was very dim. The fans were also excessively dirty on the fan blades. The walls are paper thin and the noise coming from other units in the building is very evident. The pool, the bbq and landscaping around the Paniola complex is excellent as are the owners residing in the complex . Very friendly!

2 retired seniors spent 5 weeks in this lovely studio. We came for the fantastic Kauai northshore vibe and left with our hearts full. The owners Mike and Leslie were excellent to work with. Any small issue that arose was dealt with promply. The location is great for walking and we didnt have trouble getting our 10000 steps in. You need a car to enjoy the area totally with all the lovely beaches close driving distance. The bed is very comfortable and bamboo furnishings were perfect. Everything you need is provided. We cooked all our meals in house with the use of barbecue and 2 burner stove. The fridge is good size and costco stockup fit in nicely. There is traffic noise but it didnt spoil our time. Thanks for accomadating our everchanging flights and allowing us to checkout late on final day you folks are the best!

Very clean and compact unit with all the extras needed for a comfortable stay. Central location makes for a great base to explore north Kauai. Hosts were very communicative and thoughtful with their welcome package, soft towels, beach extras, etc. This is the perfect place for a couple to use for their stay if the plan is to keep things affordable and to spend the days out enjoying what the island has to offer. I highly recommend!

We had the pleasure of staying here for the last portion of our honeymoon, and loved every minute of it! The Princeville area is so beautiful and has so many beaches and hikes to add to your itinerary. We cooked a meal on the cooktop for Christmas Day since most places were closed, and we had everything we needed in the condo! All of the special touches that Mike and Leslie left made our visit even more memorable and the beach chair, umbrella, and snorkel gear were put to good use. We spent an afternoon at the pool where we had a beautiful view of a mountain and waterfall!! Communication with Mike & Leslie was fantastic as well—We cannot wait to come back!

Great location for north shore activities. Accomodations simple yet had everything we needed. Clean and comfortable. Make our breakfast then out the door. Came back to clean up late afternoon then off for evening meal. Back later for great nights sleep in great bed. Everything worked perfect. Highly recommend.

I was worried about the lack of AC before our stay since we would be coming from full blown winter at home. It ended up being perfect. It was always the perfect temp at night and we loved it. The host was also very good to us, making accommodations to improve our stay.

My partner and I stayed in this lovely condo for our first trip to Kauai. We had no idea about the best places to stay on the island but definitely feel like we got lucky with Mike and Leslie's home! It is in the perfect location, close to lots of hiking trails - even a beach access trail that we happened upon one day, as well as cute shops! The condo itself also provided everything we needed. We appreciated all the little amenities it offered (kitchenette, TV, beach towels etc!) , the cleanliness of the place, and the little touches that made it truly feel like home like some snacks and waters for our first night there! The bed was also very comfortable and we enjoyed the breeze that came through the room at night. Overall we feel so lucky to have stayed in this lovely condo and it made our time in Kauai that much more special!

I was unsure about staying in Princeville as last time I stayed in Poipu, but after being in such close proximity to Hanalei and the Foodplace I decided it was definitely the right spot to pick. No AC so you're mostly stuck with leaving all the windows open and a fan(s) running for cooling down, but it is Hawaii! Overall a good choice for those looking for budget options in Kauai.

The unit is as it is represented. Perfect for budget conscious travelers. Excellent value for a stay in Princeville. Friendly folk at the pool. My only issue was that the bed was not comfortable. It would help to add a thick, quality mattress pad. I stayed only three nights so I managed. The beach gear was a great amenity.
I would stay here again if my budget was tight. A reasonably priced, clean, large studio in paradise —what more could you ask for?

Great little condo to stay in. Had a very homey feel. Had some great snorkel spots near it, as well as some great restaurants near by. The pool was nice to cool off in after a long day. We loved having the fridge and stove top so that we were able to eat at the condo as well. The residents and the hosts were very hospitable and made our visit that much more fun as they all have us recommendations on places to visit on the island.
