Husband and I enjoyed our stay in Princeville. Super easy to find and a great location. Walked to see the sunset at a great lookout. Close enough to get into Hanalei for food/shopping within 10m. Nourish is super close by and had yummy açaí bowls. It was quiet at night and amazing to wake up and enjoy breakfast on the lanai with all the birds. Loved our stay and would stay again!

The property was clean and charming and perfect for our first trip to the island. The location is amazing, close to Hanalei Bay & Tunnels Beach. You are just a few minutes walk from a lookout to the ocean and short hike down to a magical beach with fantastic snorkeling. We liked that it was quiet and the balcony had a lovely view. There is a golf course with beautiful walking trails and a grocery store close by, as well as some great places to eat. It made it very convenient to have a washer and dryer in the apartment and a dedicated parking space. We also appreciated how helpful Martie was! We would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

Generally liked location and property. A few notable negatives - rude next door neighbor, bed comforter unwashed.

Great location. If you come to Kauai stay on the North Shore at this condo. Kauai’s North Shore is the most lush part of the island. The condo was fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. It was spacious and well played out with a beautiful view of the mountainsThe beach chairs, umbrella and cooler were used every day. The only thing to be aware of is the bed is in the loft and you have to climb a spiral staircase. If you have balance or mobility issues you would need to take it into consideration.

Accurate description, great communication with owner, nice location for two people. AC and ceiling fans were nice to have on the beautiful days but AC was used only a short time to cut the heat after a day of outdoor activities. Lanai door and windows provided cool breezes. Supplies included lovely hair/body soaps and paper products. Plenty of lighting for space.

Perfect location! We would definitely stay here again. The condo was a great size for the two of us. Only complaint is that the knives were so dull you couldn’t really use them!

We loved staying here! The neighborhood is safe, clean, walkable, and the sunsets are beautiful. Short drives to places on the north shore. The condo was comfortable and had everything we needed. We especially appreciated the snorkel gear and beach chairs. I reached out to the host with a question and he was extremely friendly and answered quickly. We would stay here agin!

This was a cozy studio style rental in the beautiful Princeville area. A short walk down the street gives you lovely views of the mountains and ocean. We were mostly at the rental just to sleep, but it provided a nice bed, warm shower, and refrigerator for snacks and breakfast. Check in was easy, communication was good. I only wish there was more leniency and flexibility with refunding unused nights, as our flight was cancelled and we were unable to stay for two of our nights.

Our stay started with no visibility, no parking and we couldn't get ahold of the owner. I think the posting calls it "apocalyptic" level parking when there isn't any. The problem is that more than half the nights we were there, parking was a problem. Lighting outside the unit is poor, and the neighboring unit never shut the exterior door, which blocked the unit number from being seen from the road.Impressions of the unit were that it was small, as described, and pretty nice for an active couple. Although no full kitchen, it had everything we needed to make coffee and breakfast each morning. The bathroom has a great size counter for all your stuff and the shower was powerful and hot. The closet inside the bathroom was spacious, with a lot of room to hang things up to dry. The bed was super comfortable and the mini-split kept us nice and cool at night. The dresser is functional. The lanai was perfect for watching the sunset, listening to the wildlife, and enjoying the mountains. The chairs and table could use some updating, but it was nice. The owners included some beach things in the unit - chairs, umbrella, and snorkeling gear. There were not any masks that functioned when we got there and the next day the owner dropped some new ones off for us. That was very nice! The chairs had backpack straps, which is great for going to Hideaway Beach (best spot)!Overall, the unit was comfortable and functional, but we wouldn't stay again due to parking issues.

We had an issue but the management company took care of it right way, same day. Air conditioning was sufficient in January, however I do not believe it would be sufficient in warmer months. For the most part the condo was clean however on the area rugs, mainly in the living room and kitchen, it was as if it had not been vacuumed, popcorn kernels, dried raisins (as if it had been there a while). This should be basic cleaning protocol. Realistically unable to have suitcases upstairs and lived out of our suitcases spread out downstairs. Bed and daybed were very comfortable, very nice bedding. Washer and dryer are a big plus.

We loved this condo, it was so beautiful! Great location in Princeville, 5 mins away from Hanalei. Nothing negative to say about it, the only thing i would mention is that if you are someone with limited mobility, this may not be the place for you because the bed is up in a loft in which you have to climb a wooden ladder to get up to.

We had a wonderful time in this condo in Princeville. It was exactly as advertised, including the lanai overlooking dense trees full of birds with mountains in the distance. It was fully equipped and the king bed in the main room was quite comfortable. (We didn't use the loft.) There was an ocean overlook a short walk down the road and a pizza place a short walk across the road. Princeville has a good grocery store and it's a short drive to Hanalei and points west along the coast. Convenient and beautiful - we loved it!

A wonderful little bungalow, perfect for two. The lanai (balcony) looks out to the mountains. Just across the street is the Hideaway Lookout- a great spot to watch the sunset. The bungalow had everything we needed for a lovely stay.

We were extremely happy with our choice to stay here, it’s on the north side of the island, which made for a quick drive to our favorite beaches. The bungalow had everything we needed and more! The beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler were used every day by us! It was also the little things like having an ice maker and a brita water pitcher, makeup cloths, books with recommendations, storage containers, and a coffee maker. The lanai is incredible and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing outside. What a gorgeous view! You will not regret your choice to book here! We would stay again in a heartbeat. We stayed a little over a week in October. 2024.

Great location! Beautiful views of Bali Hai from the balcony and the neighborhood. Right next a golf course that had a lovely path for morning walks. Ocean views right across the street. We have stayed on Kauai at least 15 times in different accommodations. The unit was comfortable, quiet, perfect for a couple. The loft stairs were a little steep so I wouldn't recommend elderly or small children sleeping up there. We enjoyed staying here.

My partner and I enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The location was fantastic. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the balcony, the close proximity to the North Side’s activities, and catching the sunset in the park by the VRBO. The place was clean, well appointed, and easy to navigate. I’d love to be lucky enough to stay here again!

Great location for exploring the north shore. Walk to queens bath, hideaway beach, and other princeville spots that people struggle to find parking for. Short drive to Hanalei Bay and other north shore gems. The apartment has everything you need to cook, beach gear, and a comfortable bed. What else could you need?

We absolutely loved our stay here for my spouse and I’s north side leg of our Kauai trip. It was a perfect home base, close to restaurants and walking distance to Hideaway beach and Queen’s Bath, which was one of most spectacular places I have ever seen. Parking anywhere on the north side is very limited so we were grateful we could walk to some of these places! The condo itself had everything we needed and coming back to AC after a hot day at the beach was amazing! I have no complaints and would 100% stay here again!

We had such an amazing stay at this location - it was cozy and modern and had everything we needed and more! The apartment has actually been remodeled, and as of this review (Sept 2024) looks even nicer than the pictures. The location is awesome and we will remember mornings and evenings at the balcony for a long time.
Here are some things I wondered about before our stay:
-Oil, salt, and other spices were available
-The kitchen is fully stocked, including tupperware and ziploc bags
-There's plenty of shampoo, conditioner, and soap
-There's a drip coffee machine and there was a couple of day's worth of coffee provided
-Laundry pods were provided for 2 loads
-Beach gear included several nice Tommy Bahamas chairs and an umbrella
-There are 2 snorkeling sets, although if you are planning on snorkeling a lot, I would bring/purchase my own
Definitely recommend staying here!

We loved staying at North Shore Bungalow in Princeville! It was located in a perfect location near beaches and right across from beautiful ocean views to watch the sunset. The apartment was beautiful inside and thoughtfully decorated. The lanai also had beautiful views. We really appreciated having a full kitchen, beach gear and laundry. We would definitely stay again!

We loved staying in this well stocked condo for our exploration of the north coast. Close to hideaway beach and walking distance to queens bath, we found the apartment to be comfortable, super clean, and stocked with all needed essentials and more. We loved mornings on the patio, looking over the jungle and watching the birds. Highly recommended for your Kauai trip!

We were informed by Daniel of a leak in the condo the day before our arrival that required us to leave a couple of days early. Normally it would have required immediate attention to fix, but he was kind enough to delay the work for several days so we had time to find another place to stay our last couple of days. Not only that, he fully refunded the cost of our stay and was very apologetic.
We were sad we couldn't stay there the entire time only because it was a perfect place for us. The view was awesome, the AC worked great and it was within walking distance to Queen's Bath and Hideaway Beach, both of which are notorious for parking difficulties.
We would not hesitate to stay here the next time we're back! Thank you, Daniel!

We stayed here to attend our friends’ wedding and had the best time. This was the ideal place for us to stay, so clean, had proper kitchen ware, as well as beach gear: boogie boards, a cooler, umbrella… even an office desk for me to get work done at night. The backdrop is gorgeous, and the loft space was fun for my son to climb up into for bedtime. Thanks so much, we love Kauai and we will be back!

Liked the location: close to 1 Hotel for food and spa. Hideaway Beach is nearby if you want to do the hike downhill! Nice walk to the Farmers market and town center for food and groceries.
Did NOT like the old furniture, mattress and pillows. Place could use an update. Carpet (! Ick). Refrigerator was dirty inside and out. Overhead fans not cleaned in ages (!).
Owner should pay a bit more attention to the property.
Overall I would give it 3 stars.
