We have stayed in several Princeville locations; Kali Ke Pua has become our favorite, from the comfortable condo to the beautiful views. We enjoyed the welcome each morning from the nene and the geese.The kitchen was very well appointed, and we enjoyed the tropical fans and large windows, the very nice patio. Hope to come back next winter.

This property was awesome! It was very clean and was the perfect place to stay after exploring Kauai. The views of the mountains on the North Shore were something to see. I would recommend this property to anyone that would like to stay in Kauai.

Unit has three after market floor air conditioners. They are very loud and barely keep up with the afternoon heat. We couldn't keep the bedroom unit on at night or the living room unit on when we were there. Everything else was great.

The unit was comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a stay in Princeville. The pictures in the listing were accurate and the ocean view spectacular. We also found the condo’s beach gear quite useful.
The only downside was the warm temperature upstairs. There is an AC unit upstairs but it struggles to keep up.

We had a great stay at Pali Ke Kua #241. The location was great, easy to find, grounds were beautiful, beds were comfortable and the condo had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Basic spices and oil in the cabinets.
Things I wished I knew before:
- #1 - Air conditioning was completely necessary! We had all 3 air conditioners on full blast when we were in the condo and couldn't maintain 75F - and it wasn't abnormally hot! The late sun shining in the windows and loft layout makes this a warm condo! We were comfortable with the air conditioners.
- #2 - Beach. Okay - the "private beach access" is definitely private - the walk down is VERY steep. My husband and I (late 30s) and kids (8, 6) had no issues navigating it, but expect a leg workout on the way up, and careful steps on the way down. The beach is beautiful with course sand and black rock formations - and not another soul in sight! I would not say it is good for swimming, surfing, boogie boarding or snorkeling.
#3 - the advertised "BBQ" is at the beach... meaning down that super steep hill I just mentioned... and they are charcoal grills, so you'll need to purchase and haul charcoal down the hill. No thanks. There are no other grills on the property.
#4 - the pool and hot tub were clean and decently sized (not huge). The pool lights come on super late - way after sunset.
#5 - skip the Hidaway Pizza and go to Tiki Pizza instead at the Hanalei bay resort. GREAT Pizza and views of the bay!

ReMax coordinates the stay and we didn't receive the door code to access the unit without having to figure out how to communicate with them. Cell service in Princeville is very spotty! When we got to the room it was 87 degrees inside (windows were closed and the 3 portable A/C units were off). It was supposedly a mistake and ReMax did make it right so no biggie in the end. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and the 6 beach towels were large and helpful. The unit also had 4 beach chairs, a cooler and an umbrella. Not to mention an amazing view over the Pacific.

This unit was a good fit for our family. We did not spend much time there as we were out exploring much of the time. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. A/C was very much appreciated! We received a complaint about noise from the unit below us, as a well-traveled family and owner-host myself, this was a surprise as this has never happened to us. So I would say walk lightly, perhaps the walls are thinner than usual.

We spent a lovely week at Pali Ke Kua - the condo had everything our family of 4 needed (we
cooked lots of breakfasts and really appreciated the beach chairs and beach umbrella!). The view of the ocean from the lanai was such a gift! Tons of beautiful birds and little lizards to watch, and beautiful grounds. We enjoyed the pool and we hiked down the trail to Hideaways beach and grilled on the bbq. Lots of great food and beaches nearby.
One more general thought — our wish would be that the complex’s path to the beach was public (not just at Pali Ke Kua but throughout the island). We were so happy to see that all of the beaches on Kaua’i are public, and would love to see that welcoming spirit extended with fewer private access points from hotels and condos.
Mahalo!

Princeville is a beautiful area. The only thing I was disappointed is that the listing stated a short private path to the beach. It was not a short walk and the pathway was a bit dangerous to walk in as it is a pretty steep climb down, no stairs just pavement. However, it was a short drive to Hanalei Beach so it worked out. Also, quite a bit of bugs in the beach home - mainly in the bathrooms. Overall, it was a nice place with an incredible view.

We loved everything about our stay: the cleanliness of the condo, location (view of the ocean and stunning sunsets just around the corner), and proximity to the Hideaways Pizza Pub. Although there is a paved path to the beach, it has steep inclines. It is more a hike than a walk to the beach, which we were not prepared for the first time we did it. We also had to ask to find the path since it is located at the front of the complex. The only issue we had was when we arrived: all the AC units and fans were off, so it was very hot inside. It took several hours to bring the temperature down. Other than that, this was a great location and we enjoyed our stay!

The condo was lovely and location great. There were chairs for the beach and everything we needed including a washer and dryer in the unit which was a bonus. The only negative was the dishwasher filter which may never had been cleaned out since purchase. Once it was scrubbed the dishwasher cleaned better, but it needs more attention that we could give and frequently cleaning. We have found this a common problem in rental units unfortunately. The actual rental process was quite confusing with the real estate company as a well as booking .com involved and and excessive amount of paperwork to get the job done. There also were excessive and repetitive emails, often several per day, from the time we rented and even after we had completed our stay. Once I actually was able to talk with ReMax the staff, they were very helpful but there was way more work than a regular rental. We had a great time here and the sunsets there were amazing. Overall I would highly recommend this rental but it would be nice to have the other minor issues addressed.

Parent with two teens enjoyed our trip to Kauai. Condo gave us perfect amount of space and we loved the pool. Kitchen is well equipped. Bed and shower were comfortable.
Small maintenance is needed to replace light bulb in shower, reattach loose outlet cover in living room, and shades need to be replaced (some missing.)
Air conditioning units help, but aren’t quite enough at hottest time of day despite keeping blinds shut all day. We were there in august, so probably not an issue much of year.

We had a great vacation in Kauai...our first in three years since covid. The condo was perfect. Clean, tastefully decorated and in the perfect location. We loved our ocean view and walking to the cliffs edge to watch the sunset every night. The complex does not have an open flame BBQ on site, so that was a minor quibble. And the room did get a little hot when the sun was dead enter in front. But we learned to anticipate that and cool off accordingly. Overall a lovely trip and we'll definitely be back!

Mostly I was quite happy with my stay: the place was reasonably clean and maintained, with decent furniture, and for the price, was actually excellent. The location was great, too. There are only two issues that were of any real concern to me: 1) As a woman who was staying there alone, I was conscious of security, and felt that breaking into the front door would've been quite easy. 2) The place did not have air conditioning which I have found to not normally be an issue on Kauai, but in this condo at this time of year, it did render the second floor (containing one of the two baths and bedrooms) completely uninhabitable because of the heat. Fortunately, since it was just me staying there, I just didn't go upstairs, but for anyone who would plan on using that second floor, it would've been misery for them because--no exaggeration--the temperture would rise to over 100F up there during the day. Even on the main floor where I remained during my stay, the temperature would be about 85F during the day with all the windows open to try to catch the cooling breezes, but with not enough help from that with an outside temperature in the high 80's to low 90's. Otherwise, the place was pleasant, clean, well-located, with decent amenities, and suited my needs very well -- especially since I didn't need to use the otherwise unusable upstairs bedroom and bathroom.

We arrived after 11 PM and had no problem gaining access to our room. Upon arrival we noticed the carpeting was stained and spotted in L.R. and D.R. Patio door was not on track properly, and patio screen had holes in it. Kitchen cabinets and woodwork looked weathered and worn, and one door did not close. Area around burners on stove was not clean. Floor in master bath was well worn and looked dirty. Tiles on floor of both shower stalls had mold in grout, and shower drains were rusty/dirty. The master sink did not drain properly and the plug did not close. Shower curtain was filthy and the curtain rings were rusty and dirty. We chose not to use the washer and dryer as both appeared dirty inside and out. The upstairs bath mirror was not useable. Due to slanted ceiling the mirror was only a couple of feet tall and went only up to chest level.We awoke to a very pleasant view the 1st morning, and called Jackie @REMX re: the patio door problem(which was taken care of very promptly). The other issues did not seem "fixable" within the short time we were there so we decided to "live" with them. We did not have any issues w/ noise from any of the other units. 241 seemed secluded to us, and we liked the location. Only 1 time did we have parking issues, which I assume was due to business at HideAWay Pizza Pub. We were satisfied w/ the location/view. We spent most of our time away from the unit, but were disappointed in the overall condition of #241 compared to other places we have stayed in Princeville.

(I'm sure I'm missing a few) we didn't use the loft/2nd bedroom since it was just the 2 of us, but we enjoyed the space and sitting on the lanai in the morning with our breakfast and coffee looking at the water. I loved having the washer and dryer in the unit. The only draw back is that its set back a little so you don't quite hear the waves. However, its a very clean property and management company was very accommodating.

In general the place was just fine. Good location, clean, not overly-Hawaii themed, OK view, nice patio, decently equipped. However, the wifi was very spotty and did not work well when I most needed it. Also, the property should not advertise for $175 / night when the fees bring you to $250 a night. Just be upfront about the cost of the rental from the get-go. I spoke with many other friends also staying nearby for a wedding and no one else had the extensive fees on top of their room price that we had to pay. Very disappointing to find out that we were "had" and could have stayed at somewhere just as nice for a lower price.

We enjoyed our stay in the condo. the condo is relatively well maintained. The kitchen is well equipped for making meals at home. Having a boogie board to use was nice. Princeville is a great location for enjoying Kauai's North shore. We experienced some unseasonably warm weather while we were there, as the trade winds were not blowing for several days, and the upstairs loft got very hot. The condo gets full sun, so keeping the blinds closed during the hottest part of the day was essential.

Location is great, but this unit receives direct afternoon sun (we were there end of June) and gets uncomfortably hot. This complex would be better if there were some bbqs for use. The reason we stay in condos versus hotels is so we can cook our own meals! It was too hot to turn the oven on, and there were no bbqs allowed - so that was very disappointing. They also list accommodations for 6, but only had 4 coffee cups and 4 bowls. The sink in the downstairs bath didn't drain properly and the toilet upstairs didn't flush well. We had to take the lid off and untangle the chain every time we flushed. The carpeting really needs to be replaced - it was very old and dingy. Our refrigerator also broke while we were there, but Remax helped us resolve that professionally and quickly. Overall we had a great time. Hard not to in such a beautiful setting!!'

This property is in a fantastic location. Broad ocean view. Close walk to view Hanalei Bay. Very quiet and serene. Nearby trail to the beach. Short drive to grocery store and restaurants.

We are a family of 5, 2 adults, 3 kids. The condo was perfect. It had everything we needed, plus a beautiful view. Check-in was super-easy. Five minutes drive to Hanalei, 10 minutes to Anini Beach. Walking distance to the St. Regis. Beaches nearby are beautiful, but not good for kids in Winter.

We chose Pali Te Kua because it was close to the St. Regis due to a family wedding. The rental was great and well appointed, if a tad hot in the afternoon. It was obvious that care had gone into prepping the unit for our comfort. We'll be back!

We come to the islands about 2/yr, the last few years in Princeville. We really like the location of Pali Ke Kua and this unit was set looking out to the ocean and the lawn below, just great. It had all the ammenities we needed, was clean, the property managment staff helpful, and we're already planning our next trip hoping this unit will be available! Thanks very much.

Reviewer Comments:
Finding and gaining access to the rental was easy. The only hiccup we had was that I assumed everything on the island would have A/C. We arrived late afternoon to allblinds and window open and the afternoon sun blazing in. It made for a rough start but as we settled in and the sun set, we enjoyed our stay. Property management was very pleasant and responsive to every question. The unit had nice touches like coffee and cookies and starter laundry soaps, beach towels and chairs. It was wonderful to have space to spread out and a beautiful, quiet patio to relax on. Everything was clean and comfortable. Kauai is simply paradise!

This was our 10th stay at Pali Ke Kua but our first stay in 241. The condo was very clean and comfortable with a great ocean view. The unit was well maintained and tastefully decorated. Remax is great to work with and provide excellent communication and customer service. We hope to be back!

Property and grounds really good. But there is no usable beach not even for wading. The BBQ area is old and not worth using! Both were very disappointing. #241 is a very nice unit with an ocean view.

Princeville is a sleepy bedroom community wrapped around a golf course, overlooking the ocean. The views are all-around spectacular. As long as you know nothing you want or need is in Princeville and that you’ll need a car to get out to main road or over to Hanalei for services - then this unit is amazing. The view of the ocean is terrific (and with one minute of walking the sunset view is on point), the unit is clean, the kitchen is well stocked, The beds are comfortable, the water pressure is good, and parking is easy. I have very minor nits of have things I would improve or refresh, but overall this unit is great value and I would rent it again

We loved our stay here. The views from the patio are perfect at all times of day. The resort is lush and green and beautifully maintained. The condo is nicely furnished with a comfy king bed. Would highly recommend. Excellent communication on check in and how to get there. Only drawback is that we had to leave our little slice of Paradise!

It depends on your immediate neighbors. Family below with 3 young boys were extremely loud (!!!) from 5am until bedtime- it was that way for 7 of the 10 days we rented-- but as you can see from my grading-- we didn't let it deter from our time--you just have to roll with it. I have 5-kids (4-boys) of my own so I empathize with the family -- it was just that bad. Hey, VRBO asked me to truthfully review.................

This is one of the nicest locations in Princeville! You are greeted by beautiful light across the ocean in the morning, and in the evenings you can walk across the green space to watch the sunset over Hanalei Bay.
We chose this vacation rental for its location, knowing that is was one of the more affordable units in this complex. With that in mind, we were happy with the condition of the unit. Nothing is high end (except the view) but we knew that since it was priced more affordably. However it was very clean and had everything you could need, including muffin tins... not often available in a vacation rental! The beds were just ok (this is an area that could use improvement) but there were plenty of linens and towels and the sheets were comfortable cotton. AC is available and we used it once or twice in the loft bedroom just to help it cool down for an hour, but in general the breezes from the ocean cool this place down perfectly. It's amazing how much ventilation there is!
Our kids really enjoyed the pool area especially in the evenings and the hot tub is a nice touch. It's a bit strange to have the pool area overlooked by a restaurant but it didn't seem too invasive.
We really enjoyed our visit to Pali Ke Kua and would stay in this vacation rental again.

We left -10 degree weather and 10 inches of snow and felt we had arrived in paradise! (which we had) The condo was located on a cliff overlooking the ocean. At night we could hear the waves crashing below. Very quiet neighborhood, so if you are looking for night life this place is not for you. You will need a car to go places to eat and shop for food. A great place to just chill.

This condo is in a great location with beach access and a nice view. It's very clean with everything you need for an extended stay. We had some issues with the back door and the front door locks not working. It was a little bit of a pain to take all our valuables everywhere we went. We stayed during the holiday so they could not get people to come out and fix it while we were there. I would stay here again.

The view is nice and the location is good. When we got there the kitchen cabinet broke the first time we opened it. It literally fell off on the top hinge. We had to leave it propped open the whole time. The upstairs headboard was held on with zip ties which broke the first time my son leaned against it. The air conditioner doesn’t really cool the place down. All of this was annoying but not really a huge deal for us until the management company informed me they were charging us for damages to the property and did not reply after I explained the situation. I even texted the manager photos after checkout. They also claimed we left trash everywhere but we put all trash in bags since the cans were full. I’m not sure what else we needed to do with them since the guestbook just said to put trash in cans which was not possible. Overall not a great experience.

Loved this apartment! Such gorgeous views of the water from the balcony - absolutely stunning!
The AC unit for the downstairs is located in the dining room but at night when you turned it on, and kept the bedroom fan on, it cooled down pretty well.
We enjoyed easy hikes to hideaway beach and queens bath.. beautiful walks around the gold course!
Would definitely come back to stay here next time around

This condo is so beautiful. We loved drinking our coffee out on the deck every morning listening to the birds, watching the rain come in and enjoying the ocean. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was great and had all that we needed. There was beach chairs, boogie boards and beach towels to use. They also had lunch bags and freezer packs so we could pack lunches or picnics for the days we were out. It would be nice to have cable in the unit for the evenings we were very tired, there was only three channels. The path down to the private beach is pretty steep, but very worth it once you get down there. We snorkeled down there and saw turtles. The unit was in a great location and we got to see great sunsets every night. I would stay here again for sure.
