Summary:
End the day on an oceanfront lanai, watching the sun settle into the Pacific while the family makes plans for tomorrow's beach. Pali Ke Kua #215 is a two-bedroom, two-bath condo that sleeps four on Princeville's dramatic bluff and gives a small family or two couples an especially scenic North Shore base. Walk the private paved path down toward secluded Hideaways Beach when conditions allow, then return to the complex's heated pool and hot tub for an easy afternoon close to home. The great room's wood-beam ceilings, vibrant art, and natural light create a warm place to gather, while the kitchen's granite counters and stainless appliances make home meals straightforward. Hanalei Bay, Princeville Center, and the area’s golf and trail options are close by car. This is a place for guests who want Kauai's bold scenery at the center of the trip, from breakfast through sunset.
The Space:
Wood-beam ceilings, vibrant art, and generous natural light shape the great room in this two-bedroom, two-bath condo for four. The well-equipped kitchen pairs granite counters and stainless steel appliances with a breakfast bar, dining table, and lanai table, so meals can follow the view. Please note: this vacation rental is not equipped with air-conditioning.
Guest Access:
Guests at Pali Ke Kua in Princeville enjoy access to a shared heated pool and hot tub. A private paved path leads to Hideaways Beach, adding a memorable North Shore option close to home.
The Neighborhood:
Pali Ke Kua occupies a dramatic bluff in Princeville, a North Shore setting known for the view across Hanalei Bay toward Bali Hai. A paved path leads down toward Hideaways Beach, though beach and ocean conditions can change quickly here. Princeville Center is nearby for groceries and casual meals, while Hanalei's beach, pier, restaurants, and boutiques are a short drive down the hill. Come for sunset from the bluff, green mountain scenery, and access to Kauai's beaches and trails from a beautifully positioned home base.
Getting Around:
Lihue Airport is about 40 minutes away via a scenic drive along Kauai's coast. A rental car is highly recommended since the North Shore's beaches, restaurants, and Hanalei's shops are spread out. Princeville itself offers walkable access to some shops and dining, while beaches like Hanalei Bay are a short drive. Parking is typically available in lots or driveways at most properties.

Neighborhood was gorgeous and we loved the walking paths in the mornings. Also loved how easy it was to get to stores and restaurants and beaches—perfect location. The view from the lanai was absolutely incredible and we enjoyed a cocktail out there most nights. We wished we had known there was construction going on at the pool/clubhouse during our stay. It would have been nice if there were TVs in both bedrooms versus just one. And the dryer really doesn’t work well—we had to run several dry cycles to dry one load of clothes. But overall WAY more positives than negatives. Gorgeous condo, gorgeous property and we had an amazing time! We would absolutely come back!

Absolutely wonderful condo. 10/10. Would come back and stay in this exact place a million times over. The best view, the best location, and great amenities. The dryer sensor had a slight issue but was still functional, otherwise no other complaints whatsoever. The ACs in the bedrooms was clutch! As long as we rolled the lanai shades down during the day while we were out at the beach, the main area wasn’t too hot/humid. So enjoyable staying here!

Beautiful view and nice apartment! Partial AC in bedrooms is inadequate for warmer temps, so pls be aware. The living room and kitchen can get to about 90 degrees in the heat. But if it’s cool outside, I would recommend this place for the view alone. The customer service is also great!

Wow! I cannot say enough good things about this property. The view was gorgeous! So much so that we rushed home every evening to make sunset. The AC's were perfectly chilly in the bedrooms but most nights we fell asleep to ocean waves in the living room. The condo was stocked with more than what you need to have a comfortable stay! The beach and pool were also amazing! Will 100% be back!

This is THE spot and this is the end of the island you NEED to be at! We spent a week here and could not have been more happy with our choice. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay great. Very well stocked and the beds were comfortable too. Had coffee in the am and cocktails at night on the very spacious patio to watch the sunrise and sunset each day. We had a family of three and were very comfortable here. Closet full of beach supplies and beach chairs to use, along with a cooler that was used daily on our adventures. A nice pool and hot tub to come back to at the end of each day was also a bonus. Air conditioners in each bedroom made for a very comfortable nights sleep as well. You really cant go wrong with this place, the views alone are worth every penny!! The grounds are very well manicured and much attention to detail. Having the pizza restaurant is also great for when your flight gets in late and you're exhausted, its just steps away. No need to stop at Walmart or Costco when you arrive, Foodland has everything you need and it's only a few miles down the road. Parking for the condo is super easy and right outside the front door. It was very quiet in this entire area which we appreciated as well. You can sit and watch surfers and paddle boarders right from your balcony and start your day off slow on island time. Don't hesitate on this one, your decision is easy, book your stay here and start making Kauai family memories!!

We LOVED: the location & view, balcony, grill, gardens, pool, well-stocked kitchen, snorkeling & beach equipment, lots of beach towels, washer/dryer, parking, etc.

This oceanfront condo is amazing! The view of bay & the sunset & mountains is gorgeous. We spotted a few whales from our balcony as well. The condo is so well equipped for all your cooking needs. It was a wonderful week at Pali Ke Kua!

Property and view were stunning! The house was well equipped with kitchen supplies, bedding, and beach toys. The only complaint I have is the air conditioning unit in the bottom bedroom smelt like wet dog so we ended up sleeping upstairs.

The condo was clean and well stocked. The bed was comfortable enough and property and view are unbeatable.

The view was excellent. Nice gifts left for us. House was spacious and comfortable for 6 of us. Kitchen stocked with necessary items. Pretty Hawaiian touches; decorations. Clean. It’s a drive to the other beaches, shopping, restaurants etc., but Princeville and this area of homes are the prettiest on the island. Hideaway Beach which is right there, a hike down, but we did it holding a two year old, is by far the most beautiful and literally the only one I felt was what Kawaii was 30 years ago (my last trip.)
