Wonderful house with a hot tub located right outside the master bedroom. Well equipped kitchen and a nice view from the lanai.

Hi everything was wonderful aside from the smell of sewage smell that creeped up around day three. The plumbing was fine and all the things were great! There was just a very strong smell throughout the house that got very bad towards the end.

Amazing home!! The backyard is literally like a rainforest. Even though it rained half the time, the home was perfect to enjoy, even on those rainy days. Just a few things with the home - we were told there was a Keurig so we bought a bunch of Keurig pods but the water reservoir was moldy, so we couldn’t use it. When we asked the host if he could provide a replacement, there was no response. So we just bought ground coffee and used the coffee maker. The shelf in the cabinet next to the fridge is broken and held up by an appliance. We had problems logging on to the WiFi because the password printed on the router was incorrect. It is correct on their check in instructions - but that was just a little confusing. And lastly, some of the screen doors are not on their tracks making them difficult to open and close.Overall, we would recommend this location if you want to be on the north part of the island.

Wonderful home in a peaceful area. Great space to hang out and AC in bedrooms made it incredible. Can’t wait to stay again in the future!

Two years ago, our home in Hanaeli wasn't available so we decided to Princeville it for the first time in 35 years. Lovely home, plenty of room, and private. This being our second stay, we still had a lovely time but might be time the furnishings had a bit of going over to clean and refresh.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful and looked just like the pictures. I stayed a week and a half and it really felt like home. It was very relaxing. It was tricky to get the temperature just right between overheating and freezing. Watch out for the many steps from one room to another.

This property is beautiful, well-maintained, and comfortable. You can tell that the owner cares about the home and that it has a real soul. While you could clearly sleep a few kids and another couple in the guest rooms, the main bedroom is clearly the star of the show and we felt like we had the perfect amount of space (for a luxury getaway). Princeville is clean and nice enough, but staying here you should expect to hop in the car and drive for food, the beaches, activities, etc. All in all, we felt it was a great value and a really special stay. Recommend to a friend.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at this rental with our two teenage daughters and had a wonderful time. The pictures don’t do the house justice. It’s so beautiful. But the best part is how well equipped it is. It has everything you need for the beach or for biking around the island.

We have local family and friends on the North and East side. Great location to stage various adventures from with far less hustle and bustle than the South side. The house is gorgeous and they have an amazing view from behind the house. Highly recommend the place

The house was excellent for our family. We had the most amazing views and we thoroughly enjoyed the location. We couldn’t have picked a better place!

Privacy is this properties greatest asset, hot tub and multiple patios overlooking you own jungle and stream. We enjoyed it as a couple but can entertain much more. The beach toys and bikes were an added bonus to get your crew going to the beach without renting. All that Princeville and the north coast has to offer were easily accessed or stay and do nothing!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a few days in Kauai, along with some family members who rented rented their vow houses. We gathered here at the North Shore Hideaway and it was a perfect house for having a few people over. It's very spacious with inside and out areas to gather. The house is very very private, even though it sits in a very nice neighborhood, so lost of privacy. It's a great location. The only negative was the unusable oven. We went to roast something and the oven door wouldn't shut all the way and would not hold much heat. That was very unfortunate. With a working oven, we would definitely stay there again.
