I loved my experience staying at Pali Ke Kua for 12 days on my recent trip to Kauai. Everything about it was wonderful. The condo was nicely furnished and the cupboards and closets were filled with all necessary supplies and more. The condo was exceptionally clean and orderly. The grounds of the property were inviting. The real highlights were the spectacular view and the sounds of the surf from the ocean below the cliffs. Both were mesmerizing. I hope to be able to stay here in future visits to the island.

The location was fabulous, the views were very, very beautiful. The condo we stayed in as very clean kitchen was very well equipped. We had everything we needed. Having beach, chairs, beach towels and snorkel equipment was definitely a plus we used all of them.A couple things I’d recommend to make guess more comfortable:A portable air conditioner, many folks we met at the pool, said their unit had one at least in the bedroom. We would come home from a day at the beach or doing touristy things, the sun was beating through the windows. The living room was very hot you couldn’t sit out on the veranda at a minimum I’d recommend sunblocking thermal draperies The next recommendation I’d have is to have longer blinds in the windows, or even longer draperies. If you have the bottom windows open people walking by could see into the shower they could see into the bedroom there was a little privacy in those rooms.Would also be nice if there were bike racks around near the parking lots we ended up purchasing bikes and then selling them before we left and there was no really good place to keep them, most times we just kept them in the car, which was not very convenient.

We recently had the pleasure of experiencing a truly amazing vacation in Kauai at this condo and it exceeded all our expectations. Nestled along the pristine shoreline - the view of the coastline was the absolute main event! Whether we were lounging on the balcony or enjoying a cozy evening indoors, the picturesque scenery of the ocean and views of the Na Pali coast served as a constant reminder of the tranquil beauty that surrounded us.The condo itself was clean. We appreciated the attention to detail, as the condo was equipped with modern appliances, comfortable beds, and basic amenities that enhanced our stay.Location plays a crucial role in any our vacations, and this rental condo truly hit the jackpot. We enjoyed the convenience of stepping out of our door and walking down a nearby path to Hideaways Beach! Keep in mind this beach is not necessarily for lounging and relaxing, BUT is a fantastic snorkeling spot! The local area also offered a variety of attractions and dining options as we were within 10 minutes of Hanalei Bay. From the breathtaking views to the condo amenities, our stay was nothing short of extraordinary. It served our family of four well (15 & 11 yr old).

We spent as much time as possible on the lanai! Even in the rain the view is spectacular. The condo itself is contemporary and comfortable. We will definitely be back! One suggestion: It would be great if Pali Ke Kua could get some bbqs for tenants to use.

Just to sit on the lanai and watch the sun rise and set justifies staying here in Princeville. In addition, we saw a parade of nene geese many times a day, were awakened by the most lovely bird song, and got to watch the surfers trying to stand on their boards. The inside of the condo is nice, too. Clean and well equipped. If you want to do more than sit on the lanai, you can hike the Napali trail, snorkel at many beaches, or kayak the Hanalei River. Totally enjoyed our stay here. My only caution is that one must climb stairs to get down to the kitchen and lanai or up to the master bedroom. Plus the parking lot is a ways from the condo. Could be challenging for those of limited mobility.

We enjoyed this special property as our home away from home for a month. The condo provided for all of our needs of comfort, space, cooking and resting. The view is truly World Class and the location in Princeville is ideal. Pali Ke Kua is lovely and quiet. The parking lot is right next to the building. Princeville is a terrific community with walking paths, golf and a nearby shopping center. Also, just a few minutes from Hanalei.

Our favorite thing in the condo was sitting on the back porch with our watching the surfers and looking at the beautiful scenery. We also liked the privacy of having the two bedrooms and two full baths on different floors. Without AC it was a little uncomfortable at times during the day but sleeping was fine. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Kauai.

It has an amazing view and the sunsets and waterfalls views cannot be beat! All communication was clear and information great.
We had a large group and had several units in Pali ke kua during this time. This one needs updating compared to the others we had.

We loved Pali Ke Kua 216. Our 2nd story view overlooked Hanalei Bay and was framed by what is called Bali Hai, the beginning of the famed Nepali Coast. We never tired of looking at it, and it changed all day and night with the light and the weather and the hundreds of stars overhead. We would definitely come back to this unit. Everything was fresh and clean and in great condition, although I had trouble with the downstairs double mattress— too saggy for my bad back. Everything else, great. Kauai Vacation Rentals were very easy to deal with and immediately dealt with the two small issues we had. The complex hot tub was lukewarm when we arrived, we called KVR and by the next morning, it was fixed.

We spent five days in late June and thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent views off of the lanai. Conveniently located to both Princeville and Hanalei Beach, if you are going to vacation in Kawai, this is a great place! clean, modern, stocked with everything you need to enjoy a great vacation! Thank you for renting your beautiful home!

We have stayed in similar units at Pali Ke Kua several times. The views are amazing and the units are good size for a rental. 216 has nice upgrades but could be better stocked with consumables (maybe this is a covid thing?), and the dishwasher detergent dispenser didn't dispense the detergent therefore the dishes didn't get cleaned and we continuously discovered dirty dishes in the cupboards. In addition, the unit could be cleaner.

We have stayed in Princeville several time but this was our first time at Pali Ke Kua #216. We have 2 requirements, a view over the ocean and a hot tub. We got what we wanted with Pali Ke Kua #216. There were only two things that would have made our stay better and that would be if they had a blender and if the dishwasher had been operational. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen had what we needed (except the blender). They provided a good small cooler and 4 beach chairs which we used almost everyday. I would book one of the ocean view units at Pali Ke Kua again.

This was our first trip to Kauai and we were blown away with the beautiful island. Pali Ke Kua has the best views on the island. So nice to wake up to the Na Pali Coast Mountains. Overall breathtaking! The highlight of the condo was the location and the view. Walking trails, private beaches and a nice pool with a hot tub. This location is great.

we stayed in unit 216 in mid March. it was exactly as represented on the website and in the reviews. The view was just incredible. The condo was probably the cleanest unit we have ever stayed in and it was incredibly well furnished. NO AC as seems to be customary and it got warm a couple times when the winds died down but never uncomfortable and the evenings were perfect. The only problem with the unit is that it was so nice you never wanted to leave.

We booked this trip to work remotely. Knowing we’d be spending a lot of time in the condo, it was important to me to have an amazing view. This place did not disappoint…the view was AMAZING. Cocktails every evening on the lanai watching the sunset over Bali Hai with Nene Goose flying around was unforgettable. The house is well appointed too. Lots of bugs in the house, but it didn’t really bother me and par for the course when you’re in Hawaii. (The geckos help keep the bug population down :-p).

If you are going to stay in Princeville, the location of this condo and the Pale Ke Kua complex in general is a great choice due to the view - it's great to see the sunset and feel the ocean breeze directly from this property. The beach access is good too - it's a small beach and the waters are unfortunately too rough for snorkeling but it is a great beach to relax on. It is smaller than we expected and also in August, gets very warm. We wish the fans were more powerful. The WiFi connection is also spotty especially in the evenings.

It had been over 20+ years since we went on a family vacation. This place was perfect for us. Easy to book, perfect location with a view of the ocean. The condo had everything we needed and was very clean.
The managers were nice and helpful and the property was quiet and the people were friendly. I highly recommend!
