The accommodation was a dream. The view of the mountains and the green landscape was fantastic. The apartment was well equipped and very well maintained. We would love to come back.

We felt completely misled by this listing. The property is not “oceanfront” or “ocean view” as described — at best, there’s a tiny window with a sliver of ocean visible. The condition of the home was also disappointing: there was salt residue on the bedroom floors from an old leak that clearly hasn’t been addressed, and the cooling setup is inadequate. The two wall AC units are only in the bedrooms, leaving the main living and dining areas hot and uncomfortable. I can’t imagine staying here in peak summer months.This was also the first rental I’ve booked with no instructions provided inside the house. The TV and internet didn’t work, and there were no guides on how to operate anything. Even more surprising, there was no welcome booklet — no information on restaurants, local attractions, or even basic check-in/check-out instructions. For a property at this price point, that’s unacceptable.Overall, it did not feel like a proper rental experience. Very disappointing. A reminder that if something is priced lower than similar listings, there’s probably a reason.

Great location for going to Hanalei or Anini Beach! The condo has beautiful oceanfront views. The beach supplies were great and covered everything we needed (chairs, umbrella, boogie boards). Kitchen was also well stocked making it easy to cook when we wanted. The bed was very comfortable. I would totally stay again.

Excellent pool. Good walking path nearby. Close to groceries and short drive to Hanalei with lots of restaurants. Nice amenities. Fans in all rooms to help airflow. Enjoyed watching the chickens, nene and cardinals every morning.

The view is fantastic! The property is convenient to do things in the Princeville and Hanalei area. The property owner was very responsive to my questions. They provided recommendations for things to do and for restaurants.

It was the perfect place to stay. It is in a beautiful neighborhood with a beautiful view. The outdoor shower was great and so nice to be able to wash our clothes while we were there. They had everything we needed- beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear and towels. We were able to walk to Queens Bath and Hideaway Beach. They were quick to respond to any questions we had and so kind!

Great overall experience. My family enjoyed the stay very much! The location is great for the North Shore and close to many of the great beaches and sights that are within walking distance. I would highly recommend. The property owner was very helpful and accommodating when our flights were delayed.

We came here for a night with our 18 month old. The property was clean and in great condition. They were equipped with a playpen and booster seat and children’s silverware which was very helpful. Location was great, near a lot of beaches, queens bath, the main town area with restaurants and the 1hotel which is nice to go to for sunset. We would definitely stay here again!

We have rented in the princeville area in the past and wanted to try a new condo. Overall, it was clean and nicely updated, though much darker inside that the pictures made it feel. Some of the things we've come to expect at these condos (Shampoo in all of the bathrooms, salt, laundry detergent) were not included so we had to go to the market nearby to purchase all of them. We liked the location, and especially the proximity to Turtle Cave (a must do if oceans are calm and tide is low) and sitting in the chairs in the community at night and looking up at the stars.The property had snorkel equipment and chairs which were super useful.The only complaint is that we felt the description of the property was a little misleading. The ocean views are from across a road vs the condo being in a building above the ocean. Additionally, we didn't realize the AC was only in the bedrooms vs also being in the entire place. May not matter in November, but in August, it can get pretty muggy. I will say that if you run the AC most of the time, it does help, and the rooms themselves were very comfortable from the AC pov but just something to know before you go.

We loved this little place! It was perfect for my husband and I. From the location, beach supplies, laundry, stocked kitchen essentials, it had everything we needed! It was so much fun riding the bikes one minute down the road and starting each morning on the Queens Bath trail. We will be coming back!!

The view is beautiful. The place was very uncleaned. I went and bought and Clorox wipe and wiped thing down. The microwave was gross. Looks like eggs was exploded in it. No bathroom amenity except towels. Silverware, pot pans, dishes…you name it, it was food, residue on it and dirty! We have to watch everything before we use it. It is very different than our rentals in the past! I feel like this is a timeshare condo and when people come over, they didn’t take good care of it. They just left it.We didn’t take any photos. We did take a video when you check out.

Beautifully remodeled unit. It was very clean and well stocked. Remember to check out the storage shed in the back for snorkel equipment or lawn chairs, we didn’t end up using them, but I could see that they would be handy! The owner is super kind and responsive and gave us great ideas of places nearby.

We loved staying at this condo. The view from the lanai is breathtaking. It was the perfect place to watch the sunrise and eat breakfast and drink coffee in the morning and have dinner and wine in the evenings. The inside was very comfortable and clean and had many of the amenities of home. The cross breeze and fans kept things cool. We also really appreciated all the little extras that this condo had that aren't found in others, such as having tupperware to save leftovers. Another great feature of this condo was the proximity to a nice pool that our two young kids especially loved to swim in after spending the morning at the beach. The condo is also just a few minute drive from Foodland, a nice, well-stocked grocery store that we discovered has some of the best poke in Kauai. Hanalei Bay's spectacular beaches and restaurants are only 10-15 minutes away. Lastly, we appreciated all the great information, insight and communication we received from the owners. We hope to stay here again.

Condo was excellent. Like most of Princeville, everything was very clean, comfortable and worked well. Some ocean views, easy access to the parking lot and short walk to the pool. Exactly what our family of 4 (with 2 boys) was hoping for.

Location was absolutely PERFECT! Loved having the view from the balcony and that Queens Bath was only a short 5 minute drive away. What I didn’t love was that the space was quite dirty. Sheets and towels were clean but the floors were messy, dishes in the cabinets were put away dirty, windows haven’t been cleaned in quite some time, and the primary shower had quite a bit of mold and hair. Secondly, there was some random miscommunication with VRBO and the host so she thought we hadn’t showed up due to the “tsunami.” She came in without any notice while we were not there. A heads up message on VRBO would have been nice. It made us feel a tad violated only because we had left things like cash, laptops, and passports laying out. Lastly, I fully knew that there was no AC….. what I didn’t realize is how hot and muggy it was going to be our entire stay. We had to have 6 fans running on high speed (super gunked up with dust) and both exterior doors open. A portable window unit would have made all the difference and hopefully (if the owner decides not to sell) they would consider having one installed for future guests.

Awesome space and amazing location right in the heart of Princeville! Plenty of room for a family of 4 and many things to do and see inside and outside of the property. The host was available and communicative at all times. Easy check-in and check-out, super accommodating. Whatever you need or may have forgotten to bring, they already have it prepared for you. The only wish we had was to have stayed longer!

Wonderful place with amazing views of the ocean! The host has thoughtfully filled the condo with everything you could need, a well stocked kitchen, laundry supplies, games, beach towels, beach toys and chairs, coolers, and beautiful decor throughout.

Definitely in August, air conditioning would have been great! (It didn’t occur to me that AC was an option? Keep in mind that in Kauai it is!) but other than that, it was a gorgeous place! Gorgeous pool! Well stocked with amenities! Super clean! Stunning views! And if you are physically able and brave enough to traverse the Turtle Cave Trail, it is worth it! But be very careful! I did have to visit a local Chiropractor after due to a nasty fall!

Absolutely incredible! The perfect home base for all of our adventures on Kauai's gorgeous north shore. The ocean views, cooling breezes, and comfy furniture made it great for relaxing in between expeditions. The host provided everything to make our stay super comfortable: the kitchen is beautifully remodeled and stocked, and there are beach chairs, coolers towels, and sand toys ready to go. The host is a wonderfully responsive communicator. Highly recommend. We hope to come back!

Pics don't do the view justice. It was "hot and humid" the whole time we were here and the lack of AC wasn't a big deal at all. Place is dated, but who cares. A great jumping off spot for all the Kuai north side spots. Would stay here again in a heartbeat

This condo is reasonably nice, though in need of some attention. The screen doors to the patio needed new screens and rollers and the master bathroom sInk drained a bit slowly. These things were minor but two others were not: 1. The unit is not air conditioned. We suffered for our mistake of booking it in August.2. Roosters are everywhete. They are territorial and NOISY. At all hours.One alpha enjoyed crowing throughout the night... at,say, 3,4,5,6 AM RIGHT UNDER OUR BEDROOM WINDOW. Difficult to enjoy a vacation on no sleep.For these reasons, I would not rent this unit again.

A family of our stayed here and it suited our needs well. Beds were comfortable, space was great. As other reviews stated, the pool in the picture is not the one for this condo, but the pool we used is bigger and more family friendly- not a big deal for us at all. We enjoyed the privacy of being the end unit. The rental does have a few beach chairs and umbrella but they are very tired with broken straps. We did not have internet while we were there and none of the batteries in the remote controls worked. Wifi would have been nice since our phone service was spotty, but we were warned about this ahead of time. Rental unit feels a little tired, but is well-kept and very clean. Would be open to staying here again.
