Summary:
Wake to the Pacific just beyond the lanai, then let the day choose itself: a swim in the community pool, tennis or pickleball nearby, or a drive down to Hanalei for lunch and a beach afternoon. Pu'u Poa 101, a fully renovated condo, sits right on the water in Princeville and sleeps four across two bedrooms and two baths. Ocean views reach the spacious lanai and nearly every room, so even a quiet morning at home feels distinctly North Shore. Air conditioning, a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and beach essentials keep family travel easy, while the upgraded interior gives couples a comfortable place to linger. Grill dinner after a day outside, watch the light change over the water, and enjoy the kind of setting that makes it hard to leave. Best for two couples or a small family who want Kauai's coastline front and center.

The Space:
The bright, renovated interior is arranged for four guests with two bedrooms, two beds, and two baths. A large sectional and smart TV make the living room an easy gathering spot, while direct lanai access keeps the ocean view part of the room. The upgraded kitchen has new cabinetry, sleek counters, stainless appliances, and island seating. Air conditioning and washer and dryer add comfort.

Guest Access:
SHARED AMENITIES • Outdoor pool with ocean view • Tennis/pickleball court • Gas grill • Outdoor shower

The Neighborhood:
Princeville sits high on Kauai's green North Shore, where lookouts, golf, and broad ocean views set the pace. Hanalei is about four miles down the hill for beach days, local dining, and a slower town afternoon. Stop at the Hanalei Valley lookout on the way, then choose Hanalei Bay or Anini Beach for the day. It is a great base for families who want Kauai's lush scenery with supplies and restaurants close enough for easy planning.

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.

The company could see we were looking at the property. Our situation was we couldn't lock in dates until the last minute. When I went to actually book the condo they raised the price by 200. per night. Take that and times it by 10 nights and that's an extra 2,000. I asked if they would reconsider and honor the lower price. Got crickets back. It was to late to find something else because all the other condo's we considered were booked.

Clean, modern, artful, comfortable large spaces, pool access like you have a private pool, great ocean views from the bluff sitting inside or out. Well kept and well appointed for a relaxing or active stay.

This condo is spectacular. We came to Kauai for a wedding with a large group of friends and each got a condo in the same Pu'u Poa complex. Ours was by far the best, nicest, and newest. The wooden bar in the kitchen is a masterpiece and the apt is fully equipped with everything you need from beach chairs to a game closet and full barware. Thoughtfully renovated with an eye for design. Two beaches to walk to and just a few minutes to town by car. Mahalo!

We came to Kauai for a vacation and to get married and this place was wonderful! It is exactly as pictured and described. Excellent and convenient location too. We could see lots of whales from the lanai; the provided binoculars were a nice touch! Definitely high end finishes and lots of space. It was so nice to have a kitchen and washer/dryer as well. Hot water was iffy and never got very hot, nor did it last long. Maybe it’s a shared water heater among other units? Also, while this is not specific to the condo, it would be so nice if such fragrant (toxic) cleaning products weren’t used; we don’t expect “green” cleaning products if not specified but the condo reeked (it was the Swiffer mop pads) until we aired it out, which was a bit of a bummer after arriving in paradise, and was less than enjoyable. Also, be prepared to lug suitcases up and down stairs. Totally doable, just a heads up.

We have stayed in these condos before. The interior decor of this particular one was outstanding. The kitchen was immaculate, huge and had everything one could desire. It is an end unit which makes it quieter, but it does make getting your belongings in and out of the condo a bit more work.Overall, this is probably the best condominium in that entire complex if you don’t mind steps. We would definitely return again.

Perfect everything! Location, style, well stocked, wonderful fun beach below, must hike down using ropes. Worth the lil hike! Nice pool, lots of snorkel gear, ice chests, ice packs, beach towels too! Nice 15 min walk to Hanalei Bay and Happy Talk restaurant. Directly next to the new 1 hotel. Condo is peaceful and quiet! Highly recommend this condo. You will not be disappointed! Cannot wait to book it again!

Insider tips

Good to know at Puu Poa

  • Down the roped trail beside the complex, Hideaways Beach has a coral reef below the cliffs where sea turtles and reef fish are a common sight; keep your hands free for the ropes.
  • For a paved route to the sand, the public stairs by the 1 Hotel lead down to Pu'u Poa Beach, where you can swim and snorkel with sea turtles and reef fish.
  • After the climb back up, the heated pool looks out over the ocean and is often quiet, a warm finish to a beach day.
