Anything else you want me to double down on or add? I’ve been coming to Kauai for decades and I have a good pulse on what we need, don’t need, and will realistically use during our vacation. We scoured the internet for rental options that checked all of my boxes; it’s no easy feat because, as people can imagine, there’s endless options, but that could require settling.That is not the case with this rental. Located in the heart of Princeville, we were surrounded by beauty, walkable neighborhoods and easy access to everything on the North Shore. You cannot beat the location - from the quick drive to Hanalei, to being able to walk to the shopping center where you can find a grocery store, a number of shops and restaurants, and nearby scenic views. The Sandpiper community felt homey and comfortable. We were greeted with the neighborly pleasantries, and you can hear families gather, enjoy their time together, and it was anything but pretentious. Whether you’re traveling solo, with friends or your family, this community is great. Traveling to Kauai with just one friend, we landed on this unit because it checked all of our boxes. We prioritized location, parking, air conditioning and beach items. We spent most of our time outside of the rental, but coming back to somewhere that felt like our home away from home brought more peace to our trip. As far as the in-unit factors go, the AC worked well, however, we did not need it at night. The bed was quite comfortable with supportive pillows (coming from someone with neck problems), the kitchenette was well stocked. Hawaii Life was flexible and communicated often, ensuring that we were happy, asking for feedback that could help future guests. We could not have asked for a better rental agency to work with. We are already discussing when to come back and cannot wait until we do.

Love the studio but a bit hot (no AC). Furnature on balcony full of dust and bathroom sink still have problem to empty.

Hard to beat the location of this apartment, but as advertised there is no A/C and despite the cool air outside overnight, the one fan they provide simply cannot draw that air inside.
Add to that, the mattress is miserable. I have a foam mattress at home, but this one is beyond its life. Terrible sleep all week, even after hiking 10+ miles a day.
Parking is also a slight issue. And, no laundry facilities.

Great location and everything the two of us needed to enjoy our vacation. The only drawback was no laundry facilities.

The condo seems to have benefited from a remodel since the pictures we saw on the internet. It now has a counter with a kitchen sink, a full size refrigerator, and cabinets with dishes, silverware, etc.
The condo is small, without grand views, with a walks of at least half a mile to places where you can see the ocean. A short walk to the edge of the golf course brings great views of the mountain. Many wonderful places are within easy driving distance. The condo is clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay.

This place was a great easy accessible spot. Clean and wasn’t too hot at night. The only suggestion we could give is maybe having a fitted sheet on the bed since a top sheet used as a bottom sheet fell off every night when we slept. Other than that it was great. Thank you so much!

Cute little condo in a quiet area. Really close to beaches and great location for food as well. Hideaway beach is just down the road. Be aware there are no washing units anywhere nearby! If you must to laundry the closest facility is in Kapaa. Nice pool and hot tub!
