Hanalei Bay Villas #10 - Look no further - 'Paradise Found'

So whether you are honeymooning or just looking for a very well deserved vacation you are always welcome at our “Hale” away from home. Our private and tranquil stand-alone 2 story house in Princeville at the Hanalei Bay Villas on the beautiful Garden Isle of Kauai will delight all of your senses!

This is like living in a 'Bird House'. The views from the two lanais are spectacular. This is a 'Glimpse Into Paradise'. Drink your morning coffee taking in the mountain views and waterfalls of Bali Hai. Admire Hanalei Bay and check out the golfers putting on the world-famous Makai Golf Course hole #3 on the Ocean's Course. The only visitors you can expect are the many tropical birds and maybe a gecko or two!

After breakfast take a short walk across the road down to “Hideaways Beach” one of the best kept secrets in all of Hawaii! Swim, sunbathe, snorkel or just check out the many surfers hanging ten. You may even see someone famous!

Our beautiful 2 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath villa has cathedral ceilings with ceiling fans in the living, dining and kitchen area. With bamboo hardwood floors throughout, the villa has been furnished with Tommy Bahama Furniture, Granite Counter Tops, Stainless Steel Kitchen aid Appliances, linens, dishes and island decorations, TV, DVD Player, an Electric Grill, and Free Wi-Fi. This villa also has a washer and dryer!

The master bedroom with a comfy king size bed has its own bathroom with a newly renovated shower, floors, and countertops. The guest bedroom has a comfy queen size bed with its own newly renovated bathroom just a step into the hallway. Both bedrooms are on the lower floor each having access to the lower lanai with the same gorgeous views as the upper lanai. Ceiling fans are in each bedroom that keep you nice and cool.

Our “Hale” is right next door (but not too close) to the five star 1Hotel Hanalei Bay with a beach bar and a number of great restaurants if you don’t feel like cooking or just want to hang-out and have a “Sunset Cocktail”. There is a path that gives you access to the 1Hotel Beach. Also, if you feel like some pampering the 1Hotel has a beautiful spa.

Great location if you have some friends or family getting married at the 1Hotel.

With over 30 windows there are beautiful views from every room in this house as well as fantastic trade breezes to keep you comfortable. The locals tell me that this is their favorite Villa in this complex.

Don’t forget to visit the lovely Hanalei Town while you are here and stroll among the very unique collection of stylish shops and galleries. Hanalei Town also has many great restaurants. There are also rental shops in Hanalei from anything from surfboards, kayaks to bikes. Surfing lessons are available as well.

Princeville has a Foodland supermarket with great prices for your food shopping requirements. There is also a Walmart and Costco on the island!

There is a numbered parking spot for our house which is open for any guests that are visiting our house.

Please come and visit, you will not be disappointed! You won’t want to leave this beautiful home!

This was a fantastic property -- spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, fantastic layout, and wonderful location. Jessica was a great host -- communicative, helpful, and responsive to our every need. The views from the two balconies were mesmerizing and the overall privacy and peacefulness made for an extraordinary week in paradise. Highly recommended!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The views on the balcony were worth it in itself. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. The perfect place to rest after long days exploring the island. Jessica was incredibly responsive, too! Thank you for a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!

My husband and I stayed at this property for our honeymoon and had the absolute best trip! The property is very clean, well stocked, and in the most beautiful location. We will definitely be back in the future!

I was counting on the gps on my phone, it placed me before the house. Best to follow the directions in the welcome letter. Bedrooms are downstairs, ceilings fans in each bedroom and living room, helps cool the rooms. Kitchen with everything you need. Easy access to hideaway beach( great for snorkeling) and the 1 hotel down the road.

My teenager daughter and I spent a week in this beautiful nest -- which we affectionately called it based on how the house is nested atop the trees and the many friendly birds who joined us for morning coffee. :-) The space and location were perfect for the two of us and provided a nice balance between adventures on the south side of the island and relaxation on the north side. When I had questions for Jessica, she was quick to respond. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and look forward to our next stay.

Short walk to the beach (note: there are many, many steps down) and gorgeous views from the villa. Unit was very clean and had great vented windows that kept it cool. A few things need fixing (e.g., screen doors, beach umbrellas, mats) but the property manager is planning to address them. Kitchen is well-appointed, but if you're a knife snob and need sharp knives, consider bringing your own. Overall, a lovely stay.

The view from this property was so beautiful that we often got take out and ate at the villa rather than at a restaurant. We discovered Fredrico's in Hanalei on our last night, highly recommend! It rained a lot during our stay but there were beautiful rainbows to enjoy from the villa. The location is perfect, close to many beaches, farmer's markets, dining, groceries, shopping, churches, etc. It was nice just going for walks too. Thank you, Jessica for letting us stay at such a wonderful place. 🌈

This place is an incredible place to stay in princeville!! Easy to get around and so many places close nearby to explore. Would love to stay here again

This is in a great location with some amazing views! The house was really clean and the check in/check out process was easy. I would definitely stay here again if I'm ever back in Kauai!

The property was as advertised. Beautiful views, great location, well appointed kitchen, and very clean. Jessica could not have been any nicer to work with. If we return to Princeville this will be our first go to!

Having stayed in different areas of Kauai over the years, this was our first time on the north coast. We weren’t disappointed and couldn’t have chosen a better place than this villa! The views from every room were magnificent! Sunrises, sunsets, beaches and mountains - we had them all! Our stay here was amazing!

Expectations were high after reading the reviews and the property did not disappoint. Loved our time on the lanai overlooking Hanalei Bay, used the beach accesses to Hideaway and Hanalei and walked next door to the fabulous One Hotel for drinks and dinners. So happy we got to stay here!

This villa was perfect for our family get away! I wish I had known how great it was as we would have stayed longer! The location was stunning, views of the ocean to one side and the valley on the other. It was nice and quiet but walking distance to the beach and a great walking/running trail right out the door. I loved eating breakfast on the Lanai looking out and Hanalei Bay every morning. The size of the bedrooms and bathrooms were great and we had tons of space for noir family. The kitchen was well appointed and all the extras were appreciated. Jessica was great to Communicate with and everything went very smoothly.

We loved spending time on the balcony enjoying the mountains, ocean, birds and trees. We also enjoyed having a balcony and view from the bedrooms. The kitchen was well-equipped to make meals for our family, and Jessica was easy to reach out to. We will definitely come back and stay here again.

Enjoyed the views over the valley from the balconies. You can hear the waves when the wind blows in the right direction. You don’t see the sun rise or set on the ocean as we are surrounded by mountains, but still beautiful. Cool night air was comfortable and no air conditioning was needed beyond the ceiling fans in each room.

December 2022
The setting, with it’s views and location, can not be beat. The amenities were good. The only real complaint I have is that there are some inexpensive updates that REALLY need to be done. Please replace the worn out, rusty shower curtain and rod in the master bathroom. Also the bedding is very old. When I stripped the sheets at checkout the pillows were all stained and pretty disgusting. I have pictures if needed.

The location of this property is outstanding--perched over a beautiful forest with lots of birdsong and stunning views of Hanalei Bay. We loved that it was a single detached unit, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable for sleeping and lounging. We will aim to stay here again.

Not too bad but the area lawn maintenance for neighborhood golf resort starts at 5AM! The HOA has a legitimate complaint to stop that nonsense. Sue the bums!!!

The house was spacious and comfortable for our family of four. We loved the neighborhood and the views. We would love to come back again!

Our family spent 10 nights at villa #10 and it was perfect for our family and our vacation needs. The villa was located in a peaceful and beautiful location overlooking lush green foliage and the mountains in the distance. What an amazing sight to wake up to every morning( with the roosters crowing😊)! Jessica promptly responded and was very helpful to the messages I sent her before and during our stay. The villa was decorated very nicely and was very clean! We would definitely stay there again when we visit Kauai!

Location was perfect, views were amazing, and property was well equipped. We were worried about not having AC, but the breeze was nice and cooled down the room well at night. Would 10/10 recommend and would come back again.


Carol M.
October 2022
The view of the forest and Hanalei Bay from the property's two lanais was breathtaking! We enjoyed the roosters and birds in the morning and stargazed every night. The furnishings inside the home were wonderful and included everything needed for our vacation. There is close access to many beaches. Hideaways Beach trail started right across the street (a challenging, unique trail but fun for us with the rails and roped that are there and the dry weather we experienced). I highly recommend this property!

Perfect place for our stay. Very clean. We appreciated the well equipped kitchen, deck with views, and comfortable beds. Perfect location for North Shore excursions, hikes, sunsets, and beaches. Host Jessica is kind and responsive.

It was a perfect location for us within walking to two great beaches. Nice walking paths in the neighborhood. Good kitchen - living room furniture not very comfortable but bedrooms good. Deck was awesome. It was worth the drive to escape the crowds in the south.

Our family had a great time at this location. Beaches within walking distance and a wonderful place to stay on Kauai.

We stayed at this Villa for 3 nights and our only regret is not having booked it for longer. We loved the gorgeous views, the way the breeze crosses through the bedrooms (for the best night sleeps ever!) and the location that was super close to two beaches - both with the prettiest sunsets. We came here from the south side of the island where we stayed at a gorgeous resort with a fabulous pool for our kids (ages 8 and 5). And when we checked in here, I was a little nervous at first - thinking they might be bored without the pool and with the quiet that this area brings. But nope - this ended up being their favorite place to stay the whole trip (even including hotels we did first in Maui!). They looked forward to the sunsets, the family game nights each night (the villa comes packed with lots of great games!), and the beach explorations. Puu Poa was their favorite for the swing that was in the trees and they liked Hideaway Beach for snorkeling. We walked to both from this unit - steep declines, but it added to the fun! Location was close to both the Princeville town center and Hanalei Town. We drove to both, but I guess you could technically walk to Hanalei if you went to that Puu Poa beach and took the trail there that does eventually lead to the Bay. Overall, SUCH a great stay!

Wow, wow and wow. Everything about this house is beyond any words. The stunning Mountain View from the balcony is out of this world. The house itself is beautifully decorated and super clean. The location is incredibly convenient…4 minutes serve to Foodland and walking distance to the most beautiful beach you will every find. Don’t think twice, book this now ! I Hope to return in the very near future 😊

This property is just wonderful, very close to the beach and Princeville shopping area, with the MOST beautiful view of the mountains, just a few minutes from Hanalei. The house has an unbelievable view out the back lanai that is impossibly to portray in pictures. The house is clean, very nicely furnished, with beach accessories and outstanding communication from Jessica. THANK YOU for a wonderful stay. Waking up here will be one of the highlights of our trip.

This was our second time coming to this property. Per dollar, this is one of the best options in Princeville, or Kauai. The property itself is very clean, communication with Jessica was great, she answered all our questions right away. We’ll definitely be back!

Very comfortable home, with everything we needed. Visits from the Cardinals, both Northern and Red Crested was great fun. No, we didn’t feed them, but they smartly stuck around for the croissant crumbs. Hope to come back.

Everything about the booking and stay was as represented and very nice. The kitchen is well equipped and convenient. The knives were sharp, a rarity in our experience. The beds are comfortable and everything was very clean. We loved the forest views from the two decks and the bedrooms.

This Hale was too good to be true! The view from anywhere in the home was breathtaking! The proximity to Hideaways beach was the icing on the cake! Stunning beach with so many turtles! Just wish we had known that the resort next door was under construction. Many large vehicles that started moving around very early in the morning.

This was a lovely rental in Princeville. It was very comfortable and clean and worked great for us (2 couples). We especially loved the beautiful views from the lanai, where we enjoyed several meals. Overall a really nice property in a great location.

This property was exactly has described. The location was amazing, just across from Hideaway Beach, and a short drive from a number of beaches on the north shore. Sitting on the patio that overlooks Hanalei Bay and the start of the Napali Coast was also a really nice perk. We had a rental car which made it easy to get around but if you didn’t it could be a bit more difficult as there wasn’t a lot of options within walking distance for food. The kitchen was well stocked and a grocery store is really close by. We enjoyed the use of the boogie boards and all agreed the beds and pillows were comfy! Would recommend and would stay there again.

This Villa location, space, views, decor, and attention to detail meet every expectation and surpass that of many VRBOs. We would absolutely aim to return to this lovely place on a revisit to Kauai!

Wonderful property to take in the beauty of Kauai, home was clean and furniture was very nice. Great location. Minimal supplies, may want to bring some of your own essentials as it’s costly to buy salt, olive oil, baggies, shampoo, detergent, if needed.

We had a fantastic stay. The condo has a great two story layout with porches in both levels. The views from both porches are fantastic. The location is excellent as well. It’s close to Princeville and only about 10 minutes to Hanalei. Highly recommend!!

Great location and property! Very good communication with owner who was very helpful- not on sight but easily reachable via email. Had some basic initial shampoo and soap etc which was great. Would have appreciated basic kitchen items like salt etc. Would recommend and would stay here again. Thank you !!

We absolutely loved our stay here, but best of all, the views and the location. We spent many hours on the balcony drinking coffee, wine, watching the birds, and just absorbing the beautiful views of the Na Pali Coast and surroundings. A special feature of this house (and complex) is the lack of shared walls, and this particular unit is particularly "private" due to height and facing. It was so much fun being able to walk across the street to visit Hideaway beach, and take the bike/walking path to visit other beaches and restaurants, or watch the sun set at the viewing point just up the road. The house is only two miles from the shopping at Princeville, and easy to get to Hanalei and beyond as well. The house while not luxurious is nicely decorated in an Island friendly theme and has all you need for a week visit or more, including beach chairs and umbrella. Very comfortable bed and good shower in master. Excellent communication from owner. And let me repeat - those views! Words cannot describe, and I recommend that you come and see for yourself. Overall, we could not recommend more and we are already dreaming of a return visit.

I would book this property again in a heartbeat. Jessica was very communicative and the condo was immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay. It's also right across the street from my favorite beach that we went to on the island, Hideaway Beach. The only thing I want to note for future travelers is that this condo does not have AC. I'm fine with it overall, but it meant that during the day it was a bit uncomfortable to stay in. At night it was fine with the windows / doors open. Also, the nene's (roosters) crowed all night to each other! I'm not a light sleeper at all, but they woke me up several times every night unless it was raining. I'd still book it in the future for the location but just wanted to share my experience.

We’ve been coming to Kauai for over 40 years, and stayed in several locations and homes. This location and home in Princeville is the best we have ever experienced. We are literally just across the street from Hideaways beach. The views from both balconies is stunning, the home is nicely appointed and roomy. Additionally, access to Princeville shopping center and Hanalei are super easy. Jessica, the owner, is very attentive and thoughtful.

This Princeville villa met all our expectations and more! Our family stayed there for a full week and we had a fantastic time! You cant get any better with the location as it is steps away from Hideways Beach. The condo is very clean and it was the perfect size for our family. Amazing mountain views overlooking Hanalei Bay. We would definitely stay here again!

This home is absolutely stunning, from the zen decorations to the lanai overlooking waterfalls. We are already dreaming of returning.
