Listing was as advertised. They even had a pack-n-play which was wonderful for our 9mo old. We enjoyed the sand toys, the deck overlooking the pool, and the comfortable beds. Groceries were quite expensive in Princeville. I'd recommend stopping at one of the larger chains on the way.

We really enjoyed our stay here. There were 5 of us and it was perfect…plenty of space, plenty of amenities, etc. We loved sitting out on the lanai and being able to access the pool so easily.

Place was fantastic. Thank you very clean spacious. Was great until rental unit upstairs was filled with kids and made for load nights and early mornings didn’t like that at all.

Our family of 4 stayed here in April 2024 and had a wonderful experience. The home is very clean and comfortable. They even had all we needed for visits to the beach including chairs, umbrella, coolers, towels and toys. This is a really great location in Princeville with easy access to the main road for visits to Hanalei and Kilauea. Some of the other reviews mention that there are no window coverings toward the street but that didn't bother us and the view is so great you wouldn't want to cover it anyways. The management company made the stay very easy with great communication for check in and check out plus frequent recommendations for things to do in the area. Would definitely recommend this rental and would absolutely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Laurie's place- even thoigh there were six of us the condo felt spacious and very comfortable with the beautiful Tommy Bahama furniture etc. Laurie is an excellent host who responded promptly to all of our questions. The Plantation condos are in a great location and the pool/jacuzzi/gym were awesome. Thank you, Laurie!

We had a great experience renting through Hawaii Life Rentals! The condo was just as described and had everything needed for a wonderful week in Princeville. The balcony was great for enjoying coffee in the morning, we used the hot tub every day, and we loved having grills to cookout. I would highly recommend this condo and would rent through Hawaii Life again!

If you want to getaway to somewhere quiet, get a good nights rest and wake up to roosters crowing and birds chirping in the morning, then the Plantations in Princeville is the place to stay. Hanalei Bay is minutes away and the shore and market are walking distance. The area has a great golf course at Princeville Makai (if you're willing to spend $359+ per person on a round of golf) nearby. Our stay at the property was very pleasant, complete with beach gear and advertised amenities, including a garage for our rental car. The 4-point rating is because the property is a bit outdated and needs some minor updates to the bathrooms (plumbing) and kitchen (stove). Overall, the property at the Plantations is great for a large family but seems more suitable for retirees. Young adults and Spring breakers would probably enjoy beach area hotels much more for the noise levels.

Couldn’t be better!! Home was well laid out and spacious - comfortably accommodated us, our grown sons, and their wives. Kitchen fully stocked for every meal’s prepping needs. Deck was perfect size for morning coffees and night time visiting. The whole complex was very peaceful and homey, surrounded by beautiful strolling paths, and the location a scenic short drive to all the hikes, beach sites and activities on our list. Greatly appreciated availability of coolers and enough beach chairs for all of us.
Hosts are very responsive and focused on making your stay a pleasant one. Than you for sharing your space!!

Reviewer Comments:
The property location is accurate, the kitchen has everything that you need and there were beach chairs, towels, umbrellas and coolers that are very useful. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. There are not any window coverings in the family room. There are three large sliding doors and one very large window, all facing the main road. The neighboring condo can see in as well. There needs to be some type of window covering to close at night, definitely feel like you are in a fish bowl.Overall it was clean, however, there is a large amount of dust above the doors on the trim.. I would recommend having the cleaners vacuum the trim. In the master bathroom someone went around with the wrong paint color to touch up some spots, very noticeable and not professional in my opinion.The window covering in the master toilet room was broke, and one window in the master will not stay open.. slides shut.Glass sliding door in the living area have some spots that are not clear.. cloudy glass. Windows in the bedrooms are hard to open and make a squeaking sound. Dishwasher is missing a button.It's just old.We have stayed in many Plantation Units and have never experienced this. This unit definitely shows it's age.

The condo was very clean and the beds were comfortable. We would happily stay there again.

We had a lot to celebrate on our vaca to Kauai 2024. 50th & 70th Birthdays, 1st ever vacations, & celebrating life after a brain tumor!
This place was the perfect place for 3 groups to enjoy each other as a family, while everyone having their own space! Karla was a very gracious host, from special welcome gifts to amazing communication throughout the whole stay!
Not if, but when, we return to Kauai, we would definitely stay here again!!

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your space so we could stay near the grandparents and have room for our large crew. We loved the remodeled bathrooms and the updated and clean space. It would be helpful to know that the cooler that is listed as being on the property is a lunch box size. Thank you for sharing your space with us.

Great location, responsive host, wonderful property. We appreciated the beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrella, rain umbrellas, soap, shampoo, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, spices and some pantry staples. We never needed the AC-just opened the windows for the lovely breeze! We used the lanai a lot.

We were here with my 3 friends for 1 week. Beautiful cozy house and well equipped kitchen. Community pool and jacuzzi were well maintained and clean. We feel the location was great, we had a car so we toured around the island.
The only minus was we couldn’t get a hold of the contact person when we checked in (tried phone or whatsapp) and she didn’t return to us during the entire stay. We had questions about some outdated instructions and a fire alarm that was out of battery and beeping when we arrived.
Despite of this would stay again here, we loved the house and felt very fast like at home.

The facilities were not as described. We never even found the pool or hot tub which were said numerous times to be “onsite”, but were actually 1 mile away in a “ community center”. No directions were left telling us where this community center was. There were plenty of rules and regulations posted but not even a courtesy map to assist in finding anything. 2 requests were made for onsite manager to contact us but never received a reply. We would have never booked this property if we had known the pool/hot tub weren’t onsite as repeatedly stated in advertisements.

I have stayed at The Plantations many times and I loved this unit. Everything was in great condition and loved having the window AC in the guest bedroom. That was a first for me in these units. All the others didn't have any type of AC in the guest rooms. All the beach gear was practically new, the Ninja appliances were great and the patio furniture was so comfy. This was the first time I had used the complexes pool and hot tub and they were great. Highly recommend checking them out at night! But the best part was Lisa. Her communication before and during was the best!

We were able to check in a little early so that was nice. We island hopped from Oahu with our son, daughter in law and grand baby!The location of the house was perfect, great size, well stocked with towels, bathroom supplies , stocked kitchen and even a dozen of roses on table! Love the snacks and chocolates too! The only down side was in the am we were checking out, we were stripping the linen off the couch bed and the mattress needs some attention-multiple stains and appears burn marks on side of mattress. Other than that, the place was perfect! Will definitely let people know about this place! Thank you for having a great place and making a great experience! I will definitely recommend you on my fb Kauai group!!
