Property location was AMAZING! Right above hideaway beach, 7 minutes from Hanalei Bay and 5 minutes to the market, made this location ideal. Perched up on the cliff, we spent many evenings watching the surf, sunsets and beachcombing below. Perfect setup for our family of 5 (two adults, 3 boys ages 8, 10 and 19) We had our space downstairs while the boys were comfortable in the large room upstairs with their own bathroom. Having the washer/dryer was ideal for keeping swim suits dry and the beach equipment was an added bonus! The unit is furnished with everything you need to have a comfortable stay. Would have preferred larger, more comfortable couches so we could relax as a family and watch movies, but other than that we were very happy with the accommodations. I have already referred other families to this property and hope to return ourselves. Mahalo for the great memories!

Great place in a great location. Enjoyed the beautiful grounds and area, much of which is walkable. Short drives to shops and Hanalei. Condo was very nice. A little warm without AC but plenty of fans. Would love to see a small room AC in the main bedroom but still a great place.

We loved our stay at this place! The beds were comfortable, as was the couch, and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and being able to walk right out on the grass was so nice. We would love to stay here again.

Absolutely wonderful condo. 10/10. Would come back and stay in this exact place a million times over. The best view, the best location, and great amenities. The dryer sensor had a slight issue but was still functional, otherwise no other complaints whatsoever. The ACs in the bedrooms was clutch! As long as we rolled the lanai shades down during the day while we were out at the beach, the main area wasn’t too hot/humid. So enjoyable staying here!

My husband and I had an amazing stay!!! First off the north side of the island is a must see and stay area. It’s the most beautiful of the whole island in our opinion - we stayed on both the north and south side. This condo has the most breathtaking ocean & Sunset views and feels so private as it is a corner unit. We watched numerous rainbows and sunsets right from the living room! Parking was easy and the area, including the walk down to what was often a little private beach, was awesome!! Now I will say this, if you are a person who needs to sleep cool or be cool then this is might not be the place for you as it does not have air conditioning and got pretty warm because we had beautiful sunny weather. It wasn’t that big of a deal for us as all the other pros definitely made up for it. We went and used the pool once and that was a nice option. This area is just breathtakingly, beautiful and a short drive to Hanalei, which had some great food and shopping. We are from Oregon so we just stayed on our time zone (3 hrs ahead) which meant we would wake up around 5:30 AM every morning and we would go to bed around 8 PM. It was perfect since the sun rises at 6:30am and sets at 6:30 PM. That was the best tip that we received and made our days feel longer and was perfect since there isn’t much to do at night. This condo is a little slice of heaven and we are so happy we booked it! Thank you for sharing your little paradise with us!

Your White lotus condo was exactly as advertised. Stunning beauty inside and out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Very very quiet and Serene serene Three small issues that might need some attention. The lock box at the front door was very difficult to open. I think it's a matter of the moisture and the corrosion but we got there after dark and it was almost impossible to push the top lever down to get the key box open. Second thing is the toilet paper holder in the loft bathroom is loose from the wall. Third thing is the screens are coming loose at the bottom of this lighting doors. Don't know if it could be maybe the Nene's pushing against it or whatever. It's not terribly bad yet. Just thought you might want to fix it to keep the bugs out. Finally, there is a louver in the master bedroom in about the center of the windows where the louvers have come detached from the rail that holds them together. These are just FYI issues. They didn't affect our stay whatsoever. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us. Mahalo!

Love this place, it was as advertised. I’ve seen the reviews as to the upstairs being too warm at night. I do not believe that’s true any longer; although we didn’t sleep up there. It gets cool up there at night with the unit up there seeming to run fine. Very nice having plenty of towels and soap and conditioner. Some places aren’t good about that. They also have beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels. We definitely would do this place again.

Overall, a great place to stay and I'd recommend. Location is great, unit is modern and well-maintained. There were two things that could have been better.1. Air Conditioning - While they have wall units in both bedrooms, and fans, the main living space does not. Your reliant on outside air and fans. Temps were around 83 in the day, but hotter in the unit, even with all windows open and fans. It was HOT.2. Grilling - They do have a "grill" but it's electric (not a real grill). It appears the policy of the grounds doesn't allow open flame grills. This was disappointing and something to be aware of, if you were thinking of grilling out in that beautiful open area overlooking the ocean.All else was wonderful though. Still recommend.

The view from the patio was just wonderful! Although the property was clean it needed some furniture upgrades. The patio furniture was old and painted over; the vinyl straps were cracked and peeling. The living room furniture also needed upgrades. However, the view and sunsets every evening was spectacular.

We love the area this condo is in and have stayed nearby several times. It’s close to several beaches and the town down the road has lots of shops and restaurants, plus the area itself is just beautiful. The condo was very accurate to the listing. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, the AC worked well for the bedroom area, they did supply snorkel gear, beach chairs, and other nice touches that weren’t in the listing. We really enjoyed having a full kitchen and fridge which we haven’t had before and will definitely make that a requirement for our next visit. I don’t think we would stay in this exact condo again because it is ran by a property management company I had to download another app, the view of the sunset and beach was gorgeous but it also made the main living area very hot so you had to keep the blinds closed anyway, and it’s probably just the luck of the draw but our upstairs neighbors were playing music and were kind of annoying. We definitely will come back to Kaua’i and will look for similar condos to this as it does have a lot of perks and features we enjoyed.

This condo doesn't have any awnings, or retractable shades on the balcony to protect it from the sun and there is no AC. It got super, super hot inside, not possible to stay in and this was a big disappointment. In the afternoons and evenings we wanted to stay in and just relax from a long hike or swimming, to enjoy the view and relax on the balcony, but it was very hot.

This view can simply not be beat. Sunsets from the patio are to die for and make carry-out dinners a must because few restaurant views can compete. Location is perfect, 10-15 mins from downtown Hanalei and many popular beaches. Condo is exactly as pictured, very clean with AC in bedroom and newer washer/dryer. Kitchen also comes well stocked with dishes and cookware, would just recommend getting spices. My only issue I had with this condo is the code I received for the front door on check-in. Code would not work and had to be reset 4 times by Vacasa support (not host) before they got one that finally worked. Overall, would definitely recommend.

Our unit was conveniently located, clean, and comfortable. The dramatic view was something we enjoyed each morning, and we took chairs and wine out each evening to the point to watch the sunsets. We walked to Hideaways Beach and navigated the North Shore well from this spot. The unit is very well appointed and comfortable. Not having A/C was never an issue with the natural breeze and fans available. We didn't need A/C. We would def stay here again.

Had an excellent stay at this property. It is walkable to a number of beaches. The property has nice view of the ocean, but not of Hanalei Bay. We could walk around the corner and see Hanalei Bay though and saw one of the best sunsets in Princeville.
There were beach chairs, snorkel gear (in a number of sizes), boogie boards, and even an umbrella at the condo for us to use in a number of sizes which was very convenient. Also, plenty of beach towels for our use.
We took the beach chairs every night to see the sunsets which were amazing. About a 50 yard walk around the corner.
The condo was in excellent condition and would definitely would stay here again.

The condo is comfortable and well appointed - plenty of linens, kitchen utensils, and paper products. The bed, couch, and chairs were very comfortable. The outdoor furniture was also of a high quality.The downstair’s bedroom had a small bedside table for my husband’s CPAP. There was no table on the other side. The loft bed had 2 side tables. My only concern is that I was unaware that the unit had no air conditioning. I booked the unit 9 months before our stay and saw no mention of lack of AC on Vrbo’s website. Once Vacasa began communicating with me, the description of the unit listed all amenities with air conditioning with a line through the words. We were only moderately warm in the unit during the day. We opened all windows and doors and the trade winds kept the unit mostly comfortable. The exhaust fan on the 2nd level ran whenever the sun was shining. I think it helped expel the hot air from the second story.This condo is comfortable and centrally located in Princeville. Just be aware that there is NO AIR CONDITIONING in this unit.

Check in was awful. They would not allow us to check in even 1 minute early and we had cold groceries. We sat in the car and when it was time the code on the door that they gave us was FALSE. Took forever to get in contact with the management company who kept us on hold and THEY were unable to find the correct code for 40minutes. The sun beams the living/kitchen area and was very hot so beware the AC is just a portable unit in the bedroom. It’s very loud so bring ear plugs. No tv in the bedroom like detailed. The microwave is old and buttons do not work. The “Start” button does not work. You have to hit the popcorn button for it to turn on. The only positive is that the view is absolutely beautiful.

The condo has an AMAZING view and the sunsets are incredible. The unit was spacious and well equipped for our family. The host Deborah was great! The only small inconveniences were that the pool and jacuzzi were closed during our stay and the washing machine wasn't working during but the host was nearby and washed a load of our clothes for us which was so thoughtful. Overall we loved our stay!

Beautiful view and nice apartment! Partial AC in bedrooms is inadequate for warmer temps, so pls be aware. The living room and kitchen can get to about 90 degrees in the heat. But if it’s cool outside, I would recommend this place for the view alone. The customer service is also great!

You can't beat the views here! We really enjoyed our stay. It did get a little toasty in the afternoon when the sun set, especially while cooking, but it cooled off within a few hours.The walk down to the beach is a very steep, paved walkway. It's not the kind of beach to really hang out at, as it's mostly rocks and course sand. See photo. It is beautiful, however, and fun to see the little tide pools.We made it our goal to be home each night at sunset. It never disappointed.

Starting with this part of the island, it's as beautiful as we had hoped. The principal area in particular is a great spot for a base camp for this area as it sits high atop a bluff and is surrounded by a golf course and very beautifully manicured and landscaped grounds. The whole area feels like you're in a resort. Our part of Princeville, Pali Ke Kua is also special as it's relatively small and closer to the ocean. It has a central pool and hot tub. We chose our unit in particular because it was one of the closest to the ocean. We also liked how it was ground floor and you could walk right out and in just 15 ft you were looking down over the ocean. Another cool thing is that if you turn left out of your patio it's maybe a minute to a really beautiful common sunset viewing area that we went to each night, along with other guests. Inside, it's been renovated and everything feels clean and new.

The pros about this property: the views were gorgeous, just as pictured on the website. The condo was well equipped and appeared clean. The location and surrounding community are lovely.The cons: the condo gets hot. The two bedroom AC units help keep the bedrooms cool. When you check in, the two bedroom AC units are off and all the shades are open so the unit is hot. My daughter got a lot of bites sleeping in the bed near the window of the upstairs bedroom. This is probably the only reason I would have reservations about staying here again. The aluminum vent from the dryer in the downstairs bathroom was torn open so the dryer vented into the hot, humid downstairs bathroom. I told management about it when we left because we did not want to be bothered with repairs during our 3 night stay.On our last night, a neighbor yelled at my husband claiming that he was up all night due to the noises we made. We were out for most days and tried our best to follow the rules. When my husband tried to ask him questions, he said we better be quiet or he would call security/police. We were shocked by the interaction, and I informed management about it after our stay. The only thing we did at night was run the washer and dryer (due to the vent/heat issue). I don’t know if the machines make excessive noise for neighbors. Finally, the cleaning fee is high when we are expected to empty the trash/recycling, and the public containers are not easy to find on the outdoor property.

We were moved to this unit for our final three nights from our selected unit due to a roofing project. While we appreciated the rental companies accomodation, the view and privacy offered at this unit did not compare favorably with our chosen unit. Also, an upstairs master bedroom didn't bode well for sleeping in the heat, even with multiple fans. All in all the rental company did it's best to make the most of an unfortunate situation.

This is our first time in this condo although we have come to Pali Ke Kua many times. The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. It's the perfect place for hanging out, snorkeling at Hideaways beach, walking up to the shops, or taking off on an adventure. And a million-dollar sunset every night! This was a great place to stay and we would return in a heartbeat!
