The Cliffs Vacation Rental Reviews

This condo was not in a rentable condition, and the posting was false advertising. Upon arrival in the evening we could not gain entry through the keypad lock because the battery needed replacement. Cliffs security was able to gain entry to let us in. There was no WiFi information in the room. Cliffs maintenance came to replace the keypad battery and set up WiFi in the morning. The condo information binder was missing its cover, was ratty and contained outdated info. The carpeting and living room rug were dirty and stained. The faux wood flooring was delaminating and coming up, the result of a water heater link some time ago. The most severely damaged area was covered by two runner rugs. The area was spongy to walk on and a tripping hazard. The drapes over one of the sliders were sagging. There was no DVD player in the living room, the batteries for the remotes for TV and DVD in the bedroom were expended. Only one spare AAA. The lighting was dim. Lamps had 3-way sockets but single wattage bulbs. A paper taped to the wall asked guests to excuse the mess as renovations were planned. Not mentioned in VRBO post. Good points: all appliances worked, fridge, full stove and microwave were recent, kitchen counter also good and recent. Cliffs staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Good location. Have pictures.

We enjoyed our stay here, and the location was good for exploring the Hanalei Bay and norther Kauai areas. None of the units in this subdivision have AC and cross ventilation can be a challenge because the unit is on the first floor - which means that windows cannot be left open all the time. There is a box fan in the unit, and it helps at night. The unit itself is well appointed by rather aged. It needs many upgrades, which the owners claim are coming. For a basic stay in Princeville, this unit is a good value. The community has nice amenities (pool, tennis, basketball courts etc.) and was family friendly (we were not with our kids, but we saw many). There were also rental Teslas at the main office and sports equipment to borrow.

This place is just perfect ! Ground corner unit was very quiet and I never missed air conditioning , the wind flows thru the unit well. They provided everything we could possibly need . It was a lovely place and I would stay here again!

This place was perfect for my mother with her knee replacement. On the end of the building and the first floor, the lanai was the perfect spot for sunrises, sunsets, wildlife watching, morning coffee, and evening drinks. It is an easy and quick trip to the shopping center for groceries, sandwiches, ice cream, and souvenirs. Jim’s place is CLEAN. The staff is friendly and super helpful. The location is great for a peaceful getaway. Definitely recommend and would stay again.

Older unit needed some minor touch ups but overall a good place to stay if you love the Hanalei area. Close to shops, restaurants and beaches. Jim was a good host and contacted us about the oven and changes to parking rules.

We stayed for 11 nights Property, grounds, amenities are all as listed We had 1 appliance issue during our stay, which Jim addressed right away The closet in condo had all things we needed for the beach The 2 fans provided kept us cool for sleeping Having laundry in the condo with 2 littles was helpful! Cliffs is a great location, our family had a wonderful time Kauai is breathtaking a great fit for young families :)

Got in at 11:00 PM. Office wasn't informed that we had to turn deadbolt after combination was entered or that we could call security. We thought we would have to sleep in our car but finally figured out how to get in at midnight. Frustrating!!

Our stay here was nice. The location is good for north shore activities. The property has beautiful cliff views of the ocean and mountains. The interior of the property is dated and worn, but was mostly clean and had lots of beach going and hiking items that were useful. No air-conditioning was a bit of an adjustment for us, but the fans really help keep it cool at night while sleeping. We would stay here again as we got a good price and were there more for the island experience than the home we stayed in.

We loved our stay at this condo. The grounds are well maintained, the pools and hot tubs are very nice, and we appreciated having the amenities of home while on vacation. (Dishwasher, washer & dryer, full size fridge & freezer, etc.) We would love to return and stay here again! Mahalo!

We were so happy to find an affordable stay in Kauai! Our family of 5 was very comfortable. This place had everything we needed. The kids used snorkels, boogie boards, etc. the area is very nice and safe. The kids loved the pool at the complex. Nice farmers and art markets around the corner. We loved staying on this side of the island. Everything was perfect. We’d definitely stay again.

Loved the North Shore location. Condo was a great size with lots of windows and sliding doors to let sunlight in. No AC but with sliding doors open, great Hawaiian breeze blowing through!

This was our tenth visit to the island of Kauai. Jim's condo has never failed us. The location is perfect, it is much larger than most of the rental condos and everything you need for either a short stay or an extended stay is supplied to you. We decided to stay for a full month in Kauai this trip. It was so nice to wake up and have coffee and breakfast on the patio. Every day we went to the different beautiful places on the island knowing the fact that we would be returning to a very clean condo. Several evenings we would walk out back on the grassy knoll and watch the set into the ocean. We are looking forward to out eleventh trip to Kauai and again plan to stay at Jim's condo at The Cliffs.

Enjoyed our stay. Location of condo was nice and quiet. Unit was on end. Liked amenities (pool, gym and hot tubs). Place had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Priced affordably. Would stay again! Host was good to work with.

We had a great stay. Great location inside of Princeville, not too far away from Princeville main area - about 3-4 miles. Loved using the pool area for our daughter and had a fun little playground. The whole complex is really nice and the unit had everything we need including snorkel gear, chairs, and beach toys. We would love to stay here again, thank you!

Very nice accommodation in a super nice resort setting. Lots of options for things to do nearby, and the pool/tennis courts/shuffleboard area was lots of fun as well.

Our stay was amazing and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. The place was clean and spacious for my husband and my two boys. This corner spot of The Cliffs was great, as there are two patios and some yard to let the kids enjoy and play before the beach or pool time. Would absolutely come again to this exact spot. 🤙🏼🙌

This is a great property to stay in Princeville. It is definitely a good value place. It is very well stocked for everything you need for a beach vacation. The place is a bit dated but very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Had a few issues but they were easily resolved. Yes, the place is somewhat dated but it has everything anyone could want and the price is the best deal on the Island. We have already booked for next year Spring and Fall so think that says it all. The resort itself is top of the line …. Amazing people, great pool, tennis, pickle ball, putting green along with BBQ’s, smoking areas, rec room, daily food truck, veg. market, concierge for tours, etc. Best resort on Island. Go for it …. You won’t be sorry!

We had an excellent time! The condo is very comfortable, roomy, and bright. Loved the two bathrooms, patio garden view, cliff views, jungle path, swimming pool, tennis courts, BBQ area, mini golf, food truck/farmer’s market days, and more. The unit was a bit outdated but Hawaii charming and the location was great. I really miss being there! Highly recommend and will definitely book there for years to come!!!! Mahalo 😘🌺🌴

First of all, you can't go wrong with a stay in Princeville. The Cliffs is a well-kept community with a lot of amenities, though we really only took advantage of the pool and the Adirondacks overlooking the ocean. The condo was nice and spacious, and the posted pictures are accurate. However, we weren't really aware that the unit had no a/c, and even though there are sliding doors at the front and back of the unit, we didn't feel comfortable leaving them open while we slept since it is a ground floor unit. The ceiling fan in the bedroom is broken so it only operates on a low speed, and the 2 provided fans only helped move the air minimally. Also, as others have said, the parking lot lights are very bright in the bedroom (not a problem for us) and the unit could definitely use updating. It is very 1980s, very Golden Girls. That being said, it does have everything that you will need for your stay.

Property was clean and roomy. Perfect for my two boys and self. Everything we needed was there: kitchen, laundry, pool, small exercise room, and food trucks! Location was quiet and felt safe- close to connecting highway and beaches. Only complaint I had was what other reviewers mentioned; unit is on the bottom floor so you can’t keep doors open for the nice breeze in the evening. Additionally, the bedroom door exposes you when open to those passing by. Would be nice if there was a little more privacy. Otherwise, very comfortable and beautiful setting. Would return!

This is located at The Cliffs community in Princeville. The neighborhood is quiet, beautiful, and perfect for those looking to avoid the crowds of the Eastern and Southern shores of Kauai. The property also has additional facilities like fitness center, swimming pool, bike rentals, tennis courts, and easy access to the coastline. The unit itself is spacious and can host 3-4 adults. Comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, 2 full-size bathrooms and nice patios to unwind at the end of each day. There are options for groceries, restaurants and gas within the Princeville area itself, not more than a mile from the unit. Overall, we found this to be excellent value for money for our accommodation.
