It was okay. Couldnt use the snorkel gear because there was only one mask and someone had nawed the rubber off oke of the mouth pieces. They were also dirty. We had loud neighbors who were smoking weed every day. One had the loudest cough that would happen all night

My friend and I stayed here on our recent trip to the island and absolutely love the condo. Tony was super welcoming and so kind he checked in on us when we passed through and we loved chatting with him. He was very, very sweet offered to take us stargazing after we requested. It was a beautiful condo. The beds were comfortable, plenty of clean towels and linens and a lot of beach accessories. That were very nice for them to provide snorkeling gear beach chairs wakeboard Towels, lots of sunscreen, etc. they even provide us with a fresh water, pineapple and some local chips we really loved staying here. Thought the place was very clean. Very nice. The neighborhood is also very very cool. There’s a beach you can walk down to via a little jungle walk and then there’s also some mountains walking distance from a little park coffeeshops, and grocery store very very great neighborhood and area. Absolutely loved staying here and maybe I’ll come back with my parents.

This was a great place to stay. Met the manager Ken who showed us Maunakai.org, it has a blog for hiking and places to eat! Everyone was very friendly. We had two other friends and family staying near by and our place was the nicest by far! Great place!

The pictures are accurate, and the place was immaculate. It's on the second floor of a two-story building, a short walk from the parking lot. The floor-to-ceiling windows enhance the living space, and the wrap-around lanai ensures easy access to the outdoors. Both bathrooms have been modernized, and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked, making home cooked meals easy. The grounds are lush and well-maintained, and the pool is a short walk. We would be happy to return.

Everything was wonderful except for the parking. We had a full condo for 8 but we had to rent 2 cars to accommodate 8, and had no option to add another parking space.

We loved staying here! The apartment was super clean and big. We loved the host provided beach gear (towels, chairs, boogie boards). Washer and dryer on site was really nice to have. The swimming pool was awesome and we really appreciated the fact that there was a shoe spray off station that we could use. Would stay here again for sure!

Great location, as described. Easy access to lots of great spots. Our host was super accomodating, letting us check in and check out a bit before and after the scheduled times. Kitchen was stocked with all the pots/pans we needed. Fans were enough to keep the apartment cool, overall great.Two downsides: 1. While not the owner of this apartment's fault, the upstairs neighbors were very loud with their footsteps and moving furniture around very early in the morning. 2. The only other thing is that the mattress in the bedroom closest to the front door had very bad and caved support, causing our 35 year old friends back pain. We swapped the mattress from the murphy bed to their bed, which helped, but it seems as though that bed just needs a new mattress.Other than that, a very excellent stay—recommended!

The condo was so spacious and that was so nice for four of us. It was an easy walk to shops and to a nearby resort, which had a coffee shop and restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back again. The owner was easy to reach and very helpful when it came to recommendations.

The condo was comfortable and convenient to Princeville. If you haven’t stayed on Kauai before, and are a light sleeper, be aware that there are chickens everywhere that will wake you up at 4 am…with no AC in the condo, the temp was very comfortable but leaving the windows open meant waking up to roosters loudly crowing very early every morning! Parking was also a bit of an issue when we came back to the condo late, but we managed. We appreciated the beach chairs, towels and wagon. Overall, a nice home base for our family trip to the beautiful island of Kauai.

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at our Princeville home for the week. Our family is comprised of two parents and older (17-22) aged kids. The kitchen was stocked with pots and pans and cooking utensils so that we could have a nice holiday meal. The beds were comfortable and we appreciated that beach towels were supplied. There was much to do that was a short walk away as well as plenty to do a short car ride away. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back.

Stay was just ok. Instructions and parking directions were helpful. Ok clean. Nice little deck outside. The bed was a little too small and hard for two people and the kitchen lacked a stovetop. You could hear the people walking around above us when we were sleeping.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated some of the recommendations of places to see and things to do. The unit was very well stocked, and we could not think of anything that we could suggest improving the accommodations. We appreciated the quick communication with the owner and was very happy with accommodations.

Property was clean and well stocked when we checked in on Saturday. We had an issue with a torn window screen that prevented us opening the window vents next to our bed. This caused us to sleep hot at night. We called the number on Saturday for help and heard nothing back. Called again on Sunday and left a message. We did get a call back on Sunday and were told someone would be out Monday to fix the screen. Monday no one came and we received no call telling us why. We called the help number again and left a message. We got a call back and the lady said she would have it fixed on Tuesday and she would get the guy at her office to call us back and let us know what time they’d be there. We got no call back but just happened to be there about 2PM on Tuesday when the repair guy got there and fixed the screen, Communication needs improvement as well as getting repairs done in a timely manner.
The unit was in a good location but not within the walking distance to shops as described in the writeup. We had to drive to everything. It wasn’t far but it wasn’t within walking distance. Also we could see the mountains somewhat out the lanai window but they were mostly obscured by trees.

If you need lots of room, this is your place! It's big. 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, queen Murphy bed and 2 leather sofas. The grill and large kitchen is nice for cooking your own meals, but the outdoor lighting at night is very dim. Good for ambiance but you cannot see your food on the grill at night. There's lots of outdoor spaces and seating with this unit. We found it to be very clean and well appointed with just about everything you need right off the bat, soaps, shampoos, TP, hair dryers, etc. They provide beach chairs, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, etc. Just bring your own food and drink and you're set. I must mention a few drawbacks however. There is no A/C so you will need to open up the sliding glass doors to get a breeze going. Other units and the pool are very close, so you'll hear people talking, kids at the pool, people wheeling their luggage on the paved pathways... so you don't really have a secluded feeling. The grounds are lush with beautiful plants which is nice. Roosters start their "****-a-doodle-doo's" super early, so we just laughed about it and woke up early with them. Grocery store is only a couple minutes drive away and Hanelei is about 12 minutes away with great restaurants and food trucks.

This is as good as you'd hope it would be based on the pictures. In fact the outdoor deck and living area exceeded our expectations. We had several friends over for bbq on the deck and had plenty of seating and serving area for 12 people.
This unit can be hard to find in the dark, it took us a lot of wandering until we found the lit map signs in the parking lot.

We were very satisfied and delighted with our accommodations at Tony and Judith’s condo. The layout of the space was excellent. Tony has anticipated the needs of his guests extremely well. And he is readily available if you have questions. We prepared at least two meals a day in the kitchen and found it to be well stocked with cooking utensils. As with all rental units, if possible, do bring your own chef knife. Tony offered to show us the night sky with his powerful telescopes but the weather did not cooperate. We hope to return one day for a second visit.

We had an amazing stay! We spent the first 4 nights of our honeymoon in Princeville before heading to the south side of the island. This rental was spotless clean and so cozy. They have every beach amenity you could need (chairs, umbrella, snorkel sets, bougie boards..). The owner lives in the unit downstairs and even took us one evening to see the comet in the night sky! We were able to drive very easily to all of the nearby beaches. Hanalei was a very safe beach for swimming which we loved. Can’t wait to come back!

We loved the little oasis feel to the property. The house was a great size for the 4 of us. However for spending over $1500 for 3 nights, we were disappointed when we got suited up to find the pool was closed- one of the main reasons we chose the property. To have a pool to relax at after 5 days of a friend’s wedding festivities. Then when my friends were laying down in bed, they noticed a HUGE blood stain on the bottom of the mattress above them. Disgusting and unnerving for all of us. When they contacted property management about it the next day (office hours) they were told they were aware of it but they promised it was professionally cleaned. Again, paying over $1500 for 3 nights, you would think they would be able to afford to simply replaced a blood stained mattress. Honestly think we deserve a couple hundred refunded for the inconveniences. Their fix for the problem was for the maids to come clean the sticky counters that weren’t cleaned well from the get go.
I honestly loved the stay besides the unnerving bloodstain and the pool being closed.
