Thank you for allowing us to stay at your vacation rental in beautiful Kauai. Overall, we enjoyed our time, but there are a few things future guests may want to be aware of.The hot water runs out after about five minutes of use. There is a bathtub, but when we attempted to fill it, the hot water only reached about a foot before turning cold, which made it impractical to use.During one daytime shower, I noticed a neighbor to the right of the residence standing in place and looking into the house, which felt uncomfortable.We made sure to keep the rental tidy throughout our stay and cleaned the dishes before departure. However, after arriving at the airport, we were charged an additional cleaning fee on top of the original fee, which came as a surprise.We hope this feedback is helpful for future guests and the host.

Had a wonderful stay. Beautiful and private property. Worked great to walk to the Hā’ena State Park shuttle stop at Princeville Golf Club. Also, short walk to Nourish for breakfast with amazing views.

We had the best experience celebrating our honeymoon and staying at the Tree Top Suite! The home was absolutely beautiful surrounded by nature. Definitely will book again!

Such a gem of a place! This was the perfect introduction to Kauai!! The property was so perfect t for my husband and me to stay and celebrate our anniversary. Super clean, immaculate, airy and plenty of space. Everything is so close by… we loved eating at Bar Acuda and the Hanalei pizza shop was also amazing! We went to Hanalei Bay and Tunnels Beach, which were also so beautiful and picturesque. You cannot put it into words how amazing this place is!!!

This was the most perfect getaway for my husband and I as we explored Kauai for our honeymoon. We were worried about the lack of AC but it was honestly not an issue at all. The trees provide great cover and the fans took care of the rest. This suite was so clean and i DREAM about the rainfall shower to this day. Could not recommend this place more. Kay was amazing and our stay was PERFECT! thank you!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the treehouse. The home was beautiful and more than we imagined. We loved waking up among the trees every morning and being so close to Hanalei. The beautiful shower, beach chairs and cooler were extra pluses! Hope to visit again.

Tree top suite was exactly as advertised, even staying in the warm month of August the ample windows and fans kept it comfortable. Rain showers at night were such a treat to hear too!The hosts shared directions for getting to a quiet beach just a 15 minute walk away, this was absolutely amazing! I felt very close to everything to do and see in Hanalei but with the serenity and views of this location I actually preferred not being right in town. Water pressure and rain-style shower was amazing.

We were in awe as we entered the property. A designated parking area was available. The property is basically one large room, with the bedroom down 3 steps from the rest of the house. But it is truly beautiful with all of the windows and plants that surround the house. The living room area was comfortable and the kitchen was functional with an induction plate for cooking. The small room has a place to hang up clothing and keep the suitcases. The bathroom has dual sinks and a good shower. There is a small deck to sit on, but we had rain daily and did not have the chance.
A full line grocery store is nearby for your grocery needs. Also we did walk do Hanalei Bay via the path as noted in the notebook inside. You walk through a forested area and come out at a beautiful Bay Area.
We were told the owners were out of town so we did not meet them and the communication was through VRBO. But everything was very clear in their notebook in the home.

Such a unique, serene property! Well-stocked with everything we could need. Awesome shower. Bed was comfortable, bathroom and kitchenette clean. Loved listening to the birds in the morning and the rain at night. We were worried about not having AC in June but were pleasantly surprised that the fan and open windows were enough to keep us comfortable. Convenient to Hanalei and Princeville and nearby beaches. Thanks so much!

Our honeymoon stay was above and beyond all expectations. The home was beautiful and in a magical location with the surrounding greenery. The space was roomy and well laid out. It was easy to get to restaurants and beaches from the home. We would love to come back some day!

Nice little jungle home. Perfect for a couples getaway. Quick drive into Hanalei.

I booked because of the 10/10 for reviews and it did not disappoint! The property is easy to find and a great location for visiting Hanalei and the south side beaches. It’s private and feels like you’re in the middle of the jungle. The owners made the check in process and communication easy. Overall a great first experience to Kauai!

The property is immaculate and very well designed. Loved the small patio! Was just a short drive to the grocery in Princeville and less than 10 minutes down into Hanalei. Would definitely consider another stay here the next time we visit Kauai.

No AC in this place & the heat / humidity were horrific. Ceiling fans only stir the hot humid air. Couldn't comfortably be in the place until after sundown when temps cooled. There is no 'kitchenette' despite what description says. A hot plate, coffee maker, and toaster oven are not a kitchenette. By definition a kitchenette is a small kitchen w/ a stovetop, microwave, refrigerator, etc. Also there was very poor cell service. Property is located on the very edge of coverage per signal scanner & maps. Wifi was okay, but TV lost connection and required reconnection every time it was turned on. Odd user profiles on TV also confused the matter - 1 male and 2 female profiles were found. Former guests? Owner's family members? Who knows... There was no storage for clothing, so nowhere to unpack suitcases. Left them open on the floor. The existing refrigerator didn't cool properly. Freezer was okay, but fridge compartment barely kept water cool. Notified host and they responded quickly, but issue wasn't resolved. Owner brought new fridge but didn't install. We winged it another day then left. There was also black mold or mildew in the shower area. Don't see anywhere to upload photos of this or the other shortcomings referenced above. Wouldn't stay here again. We left 4 days into our 7 day reservation for a more well appointed climate controlled condo nearby. No refund or compensation was offered, but this is likely par for the course in Hawaii. We were just glad to be done with it.

This was a lovely stay. One of our most favorite vrbo experiences ever. Really unique cool architecture and a great vibe. Walk to the beach a huge plus! Hearing the rainforest from the treehouse was so nice.

My wife and I loved this place. It’s small, intimate and has everything we needed. It’s close to Hanalei and Princeville so it’s easy to get around. With the kitchen appliances, we were able to cook a couple of breakfasts and lunch so we didn’t have to eat out every meal. We would definitely stay here and recommend any other couples to stay here.

This was the perfect setup for a secluded north shore getaway near the Napali Coast. It was quiet, beautiful, and a seamless stay. The trail walk down to Hanalei Bay and the super quick jaunt to the Nourish Hanalei stand made this a special spot.

Treetops is and awesome place for a couple to relax, unwind and use as a home base for taking in Hanalei and the surrounding area. It was cool to walk down the road and find the hidden path to the beach. The owner gives all the details. And make sure you stop and get a bit at the cafe-amazing açaí

This property was located in a great, central location for our princeville stay. Easy access to anywhere we wanted to go, yet felt secluded and private. A little ac would've been nice, but we are from New england, so not as used to the warmer temperatures. Property was very clean and host was accommodating! Overall great stay

Outstanding stay in Kauai! The photos of this uniquely designed and well-positioned casita do not do it justice. Mark, the owner and host, is an architect who lives in the main home, and his acumen comes through in the awesome design of this spacious little home. It was only a 7-minute drive into Hanalei town, making it easy to go back and forth throughout the day. For a small place this home is also very well stocked, with everything you need to cook simple meals and stock the fridge with snacks and leftovers. We super appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler that were available. It even had amazing little touches like a red night light in the bathroom so your overnight awakenings weren’t disrupted by blue light. Easy parking, quiet and lush surroundings, and a comfortable bed. The perfect north side stay for a couple. We will absolutely be returning on our next trip!

I was overall very happy to stay here. Inside, it feels like you are much more remote than you really are and walking out and down the street you'll find it's a truly wonderful location. The inside is quite nice as well and coming from a desert I loved the gushing shower. I would come back again without hesitation.

Our recent stay in Princeville was absolutely incredible. The rental was beautiful, spacious, and well-maintained, offering all the comforts of home in a stunning, lush setting. It truly felt like we were staying in the middle of a tropical jungle, surrounded by the sounds of nature. The peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking views made it hard to leave—we honestly wish we could have stayed longer!
Highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a serene getaway in paradise. We’ll definitely be back!

This home is such a unique and beautiful place to stay! You feel like you're in the jungle with lush greenery surrounding every view, yet you're super close to the convenience of beaches and stores in Princeville and a short drive to the super cool town of Hanalei. The rain head shower is awesome! There is no a/c which sounds like normally is not an issue, but the week we were there was extra hot with little breeze which did make the house a bit warm for our taste. (I should disclose we are from MT where there is little humidity, so we are possibly more sensitive to this than others.) Outside of that, our stay was lovely, the house is gorgeous, and the host was very responsive. We would certainly stay here again!

This spot is an absolute gem on the north shore of Kauai. We were really impressed with the space - the large windows, the open layout and wood counters, the large bathroom. It’s truly beautiful and relaxing. Kat & Mark were wonderful hosts, available if needed but offering tons of privacy. We honestly forgot at points that it was a shared property due to how quiet it was. I’m so happy that we decided to stay here vs. the usual resort accommodations - we would absolutely stay again should we return to the area in the future.

A truly outstanding property. It was everything we needed for our quick stay in Kauai. Perfect location and very clean. We loved how secluded the property felt although it was just in the back of the main property and road. Our favorite parts were falling asleep to the rain in the jungle-like bedroom or the shower which felt like a rainforest spa! I would absolutely stay here again.

The windows were lovely, looking into the lush treetops and letting in the breezes. Loved the bathroom views….and the street had the most AMAZING views to the Hanalei bay! Walk to the end of the road and then down the path to see more views or go all the way down to the ocean. So gorgeous! Easy to find and access. Only downside was spotty internet and nowhere to sit outside.

We really loved our week staying here. The street it's on can't be beat- felt quiet and private compared to a resort area stay. Short walk to a private beach and the 1 Hotel that we did almost daily. Also a quick and easy drive to Hanalei Bay. There was also a nice welcome packet with helpful tips and restaurant recs that we appreciated. This is a new rental and we were amongst the first groups to stay, so there are still a few kinks being worked out. But Kat was very helpful and willing to accommodate for anything we requested. Would absolutely stay again in the future.

Being very familiar with Princeville and the sometimes crowded bustle of Hanalei (especially during Easter) I was pleasantly surprised by what a peaceful time I had renting the tree top suite. Tucked among million(s) dollar houses in the Princeville greenbelt it was safe and clean and new and very quiet - yet the nearby forrest path down to the Hanalei river with a thigh-high wade across to the beach/pier and town (coffee) every morning quickly became my morning routine. HBR and One are a hike through the woods, and Foodland and the Kauai shuttle are a reasonable walk up Hanalei Plantation Rd.. While part of a larger property with resident owners, they were hardly visible and very hands-off during my entire stay. A perfect affordable piece of a very high-end area, great for a couple and even better for a single person. It was just what I needed. Finding something in this location that is not part of a resort is a rare find. Next time I probably won't even rent a car, but travel light and Uber and public trans my way around instead.

We arrived in the evening and there was no ice in the freezer for a cocktaills/no ice maker 😩 The hot water heater is very small, my wife and I took our shower together and quickly ran out of hot water. The shower is all glass on 2 sides with no shades so if you are looking for privacy from next door neighbor (there is partial shading/not complete) additionally shading needs to be installed. Bed comfort is good but there are no outlets on each side of bed for charging and there are no bedside lamps which was disappointing. The other thing needed is an electric broom/vac.
We hope to stay here again as we winter in Honolulu.

This small cottage is as lovely as the photos indicate! It is secluded and in a beautiful neighborhood between Princeville and the Hanalei River. The biggest surprise was a fairly easy 15 minute walk down the road and trail to an almost private beach just across the river with a view of Hanalei Bay. We were delighted to discover "Tree Top" and explore the environs and hope to return next time we're in Kauai.
