Great Condo that came perfectly equipped with towels, beach gear and well stocked kitchen. The plants around the balcony are gorgeous and the notes about local farmers markets were super helpful.

Great place to stay! Clean, modern, great location close by the local foodland. My only comment is that you need to be good at parking booking here. Like a lot of other places on the island, it only takes one bad park job to ruin the lot! Spaces are tight.Host has all the beach stuff you will need, towels, snorkel items. I saw a previous review saying they didn’t and I wanted to clear the reviews up. You don’t need to bring a thing to stay comfortably here!Having laundry on site totally saved us, host even provided some detergent which was unexpected and really nice. Overall would absolutely book this location again!Appreciate the communication & hospitality from the property management company. Thy are incredibly kind. Thanks all!

Not very well equipped, four bath towels total.Also emailed the other day regarding a potential fire hazard with the dryer and exhaust fan in the master bathroom excessive lint buildup causing drying not to work properly at all so we cannot continue doing laundry. Upon investigation I pulled a complete handful of lint that clogged up the vent system, which is a fire hazard. No response from the management company.

Really clean place (no sand on the floor as there usually tends to be in Hawaii despite cleaning). Very good instructions. They had all the amenities we might have needed and more - toaster, microwave, coffeemaker, keurig pods, etc. not a big deal- but the place doesn’t receive much natural daylight if you plan to be inside.

Very great rental for the price. It really is the perfect Kauai getaway and located just minutes from a classic Hawaiian experience in Hanalei town. Communication with the Property Manager once was very pleasant and helpful.

A very thoughtfully put together place for comfort! Everything that we would need for a long vacation was readily available, from beach chairs to coolers to washers, dryers and cleaning supplies. The guidebook was clear and helpful. Overall clean and comfy room. We enjoyed it very much!

Everything was very clean. The kitchen has a full sized refrigerator, a toaster oven, a microwave, drip coffee maker, a two burner table cook top, and all the utensils, dishes, pans, etc. Foodland is a short walk & the Westin has a small cafe with some grocery items. Beach acces is a short walk but quite steep. Once you are down there, it's a gorgeous sanctuary. The open air concept & fan kept us cool. Joy is amazing and was such a help getting us settled in. Roosters are active all day & night, so pack your earplugs. The little lanai is lovely. Comfortable bed. It was a perfect cottage for the two of us.

We loved our stay! The location is beautiful with convenient walking access to anini beach and the shops in princeville. The drive to hanalei is short and convenient as well! The kitchen has everything you might possibly need. The spot also comes with tons of beach gear which was so helpful. Truly such a gem of a spot!

Check-in instructions were clear and the process was smooth. Great location with all the essentials available closeby. The Studio is equipped with all the amenities and also includes beach chairs, umbrella and a cooler which was a nice bonus. Would stay again!

The location was perfect with shops and restaurants within walking distance. All the best beaches on the North side of the island within a 15 minute drive or less. We could cook and barbecue and the cottage was so quiet. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

A wonderful, spacious apartment. We loved the wrap-around deck and the gorgeous flowers and foliage. We enjoyed the ping pong table and sadly didn't have the weather to enjoy the pool—but it looked inviting. The apartment is cool and breezy, and loved having the windows open. Be ready for the rooster wake-up calls. Which is everywhere on Kauai.

We flew in a day late due to the storm. We were greeted by Joy, the neighbor who helps out. She was lovely and a font of information for the island. We would gladly stay there again.

This place is located in a great location. The place looks exact to the posting. The one thing that did bother us was the communication with the host. It was someone different each time and when the electric key pad for entry battery died we had to wait outside for an hour at night before they assisted. They even asked us to change the battery for them which to me was extremely odd. Besides that the place was great.

Rick's place was a perfect home base for exploring the North Shore of Kauai, at an absolute bargain compared to other options. Comfy, quiet and conveniently located; only 10-15 min walk from a grocery store & restaurants and a short hike to a beautiful beach. He even has beach chairs/umbrella and snorkeling gear you can borrow!Loved the peaceful outdoor lanai to enjoy the local birds. Appreciated kitchen amenities like a toaster oven, foil/ziploc bags, salt/pepper/cooking basics, coffee maker and Keurig with some pods. 10/10 will visit again.

Very responsive host, even arranged for our last minute request for early arrival. The bed was very comfortable and made for easy sleeping. There was a little road noise from the windows above the bed, but closing the louvered windows completely solved the issue, and there was still plenty of airflow from the other windows and fans. The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking all of our meals, and we loved the thoughtful extras in the cabinets like spices, sugar, and coffee. The space was very thoughtfully equipped,even a yoga mat was provided, which was a lovely touch. The landscaping and tropical plants on the lanai and around the property were beautiful, with great natural light throughout. The location was excellent, close to several beaches within walking and short driving distance, and a grocery store nearby. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

The condo grounds were beautifully kept and landscaped. Our condo space very clean and equipped with everything one may need. Rick, the owner, was very responsive to our messages made sure there was extra towels, shampoo, conditioner, etc… Also provided beach towels, chairs & sun umbrella. We enjoyed the deck and out staying.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was incredibly convenient and made the entire trip easy and relaxing. It’s set in a beautiful area with access to a pool and close to several beaches that are great for swimming, all within a short drive. The views were lovely, and we appreciated the nearby trails that were perfect for walking or jogging.There’s also a park close by and a grocery store nearby, which made it easy to grab food and essentials during our stay. The place itself was comfortable, clean, and well-suited for relaxing after long days out exploring.The host was responsive and helpful every time we reached out, which made a big difference. Overall, this was a great place to stay, and we would absolutely book here again.

The place was nice. We never used the amenities due to site seeing. Our only complaint is if anyone is renting the upstairs you will hear every footstep and be woke up very early everyday. There was a 4 year old above us and you knew it.

Great spot to stay. Clean, well-stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds. Beautiful artwork on the walls throughout. The walk to the beach is really neat, but the muddy path is steep and can be slippery. It’s worth it, though! Especially at sunrise or sunset. Just take care. The pool was great for the kids.

Upon arriving at the home we noticed the front door locket was in disrepair and needed repair. We contacted mgt and it was resolved. There was giant bird droppings on the windows and we asked if they could be cleaned and that was resolved. There were a few large dead cockroaches that we cleaned up, we realize they are typical in Hawaii. The fan and light switch in the upstairs bedroom needed repair and that was resolved. The only thing not resolved is some of the electrical outlets work and some don’t, you may want to look into that as the plug in next to the fridge was loose and looked burnt. The house needs a lot of interior paint touch ups. We did enjoy our stay and the unit fit our family size. The unit location was nice as we were close to lots of activities etc.

Rick(owner)was very friendly and responsive. As soon as I made him aware the keurig in our unit was shot we had another one delivered to our door within the hour! Our little studio was cute and well equipped.All cooking and cleaning supplies we needed were supplied. Shower stocked with nice shampoos. Towels for the pool too.Unit was very clean with comfy queen bed.We enjoyed the polar bear plunge in the facility pool as well! We were surprised it wasn’t heated over the winter, but it felt great having it to cool down when needed!Highly recommend Rick and his little studio. It’s perfect for a single person or couple to enjoy staying in the North shore for a few days!

This was a great vacation rental. Might be one of the best stocked vacation rental kitchens I've ever seen! Plenty of pot/pans, bowls, gadgets, spices and... tupperware! lol. So nice to have a way to save left overs, freshly cut fruit; and there's a small cooler available and ice packs in the freezer so we could pack snacks/lunches while we were driving around the island. Small things that were super helpful to have.Bathroom was clean and spacious with good water pressure. The bed was comfortable. It's on the softer side, which was fine for us - I only mention it for those who are more particular about mattress firmness. Washer and Dryer were clean and worked great (laundry soap was provided). So nice to wash clothes after a couple days hiking (esp after getting caught in a downpour!)We were there in January so it was warm but not hot and not too humid. I opened the louvered windows when we left each morning and the temp was comfortable when we returned each evening. There is a ceiling fan and several smaller fans but we only used a fan on a couple evenings. It's a ground floor unit but was quiet. Occasionally we could hear folks above us but it was very subtle. I had a question about check out, texted Rick and he got back to us right away. Oh and there's a good sized grocery store nearby.Traveler alert: vandals are cutting gas lines to steal gas all over the island. Jeeps are targeted so consider renting a vehicle that's less of a tourist target

Everything was absolutely perfect. We loved the place and will definitely be back next time we're in Kauai. Rick has really thought of everything here. Made our trip so much easier and fun. This was our 2nd trip to Kauai; the first time we stayed at a resort in Kapa'a which was fine, but staying here was a whole different and much greater experience. Thanks for everything Rick!

The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and a spacious fridge! We were close to the pool and parking was super easy. The bed was super comfortable, shower was great and the bathroom had more than enough. Rick left all the beach supplies you’d need, including snorkeling gear! Wish I sat out on the terrace more so we will definitely try to book this place again. The trail to the smaller private beach was fun but definitely wear good hiking shoes especially if it rained! Definitely would suggest booking here if you have a rental car since you’re pretty close to Hanalei Bay and Anini beach! Easy and beautiful drive to other remote further beaches as well. Overall a great stay!

Everything about this stay was fantastic. The location, the property, the amenities, the hosts and the entire layout of this space was perfect for a couple who wanted to be able to cook some meals when they felt like it, kick back quietly and do some laundry if needed. Close to Hanalei and Kilauea. What a garden paradise!
