At first glance, the property seemed to need a little updating and a few repairs. Some lights don’t work screens coming off the side door screws protruding from the back deck front door knob about to fall off on the inside. Having said that this was the most comfortable place we have rented on the island over the last 20 years. We enjoyed the seclusion in privacy and plantings in the yard. The outdoor shower was a pleasure furniture was very comfortable and we would write this as one of the best properties we’ve stayed at. We would recommend it to anybody.

Stayed at this nice home with our two sons and their partners. The way the house was arranged facilitated private space for each couple. Central areas comfortable and spacious.

House needs a lot of updating and general maintenance. Lots of little things were broken or missing and in need of repair. The guest bathroom toilet had a note on it saying someone would be by to fix it but no one came. Railings and deck are a safety hazard. However we did love the locale and ambience of the house and had everything we needed to have great vacation in paradise despite the condition of the property.

Perfect location in Princeville, everything was walking distance or a short drive away. We walked to the beach every day! House was all we wanted and more

The property has everything we needed. It was a great launching point for all of our adventures, and convenient for pretty much everything we needed. The house was clean, and neighborhood incredibly safe. There are some fancy resorts around that are walk/drivable that have great local beach access and sunset views. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to our next visit to Kauai.

The property really needs to be updated. All the window coverings were falling apart. The jacuzzi outside only worked one night. The property manager couldn't get it fixed during the time we were there...11 days! It broke on the first night! My family was very disappointed. Then the Jacuzzi bathtub didn't work either. They never tried to fix that! I really wanted to use that. The jacuzzis were one of the reasons we picked that place. The manager did give us some money back, but we were disappointed.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was one of the least attractive rentals I’ve stayed in. Very dirty, it felt like it had barely been cleaned if at all with exception for the bed linens. Marks on the walls. Blinds falling apart. The hot tub was yellow and smelled so strongly of chlorine and whatever else that we just didn’t use it. The monitor said the filter hadn’t been cleaned in over 50 days. Fairly empty house but furniture that was there looked straight out of a thrift store. Dirty shower and bathtub with other peoples hair. Bugs and a lizard inside the property. No shampoo or conditioner, just super cheap bar soap. It felt incredibly uncomfortable and sad, so much so that we decided to leave a day earlier than checkout to stay at a hotel instead. I don’t know how on earth this has as many positive reviews as it does, but do not be fooled. Also, absolutely no communication from the management team. This house definitely has potential but seems to be just left in disrepair with bad management.

The home was well prepped for guests. The placement of household items were arranged with purpose and intent. The kitchen was well stocked. Kauai is such an amazing place to visit and this home matched the Aloha spirit. Relaxing and laid back. The home needs some TLC overall as it is not a newer home. We experienced some ants in one of the bedrooms. I contacted the property manager to let her know. Overall, the top benefit of the home is the location. Short walk or drive to all points of interest on the North Shore.

We really enjoyed this stay. The house is really big, and two of the rooms have extra amazing views from large windows. A/C is important to us, and the A/C was amazing here. Items were well stocked and we really enjoyed using the boogie boards and sand toys. We also enjoyed the books and games that were provided. Those are always nice extras. The real show stopper in this house is the back patio. It is a good size off of the main sitting room and wraps to one of the bedrooms. We enjoyed eating our breakfast on it every morning and looking for the lizards. The neighborhood was nice. We could hear others talking, and we waved at neighbors walking. This property is very close to a Foodland grocery store, so it was easy to swing by and pick up fresh groceries. Foodland had a good selection. Each bedroom had it's own full bathroom attached, and there was an additional half bath (toliet/sink) downstairs. There was a landing in the front near an outdoors shower which made it easy to bring up sandy clothes, shoes or towels and shake them out instead of bringing them directly inside. The entry was very easy to access. We have had challenges entering other properties with owners accidentally providing the incorrect code, or there is a tricky opening (like jiggling, pulling, etc) the box or door. That is always really frustrating when you have travelled all day and are looking into settling in. This access was very easy with the instructions provided by the management. Great stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: While we’ve stayed in Hanalei in the past, it’s too noisy and previous rentals have not even compared to this home. Quiet street and home feels very private the way it is built into the downslope, backing up to the big ravine. Three spacious bedrooms each with own attached bath. Private outdoor shower (we never even showered inside - no need!). Fully stocked kitchen and beach toys. Unique layout and great deck on each floor. Property manager is super responsive. Home felt massive for our family of five. Easy drive into hanalei / Haena or any of the beaches towards Kilauea. Highly recommend. Yes, sure, there is some deferred maintenance, but have you been to Kauai before? If you want a four star hotel feel, stay at the One. If you want an amazing private home with unique touches, stay here!!!

This house was perfect for 3 couples. Plenty of space. The kitchen was great for making breakfast and the nights we wanted to stay in and cook. Back patio was beautiful and relaxing. The location of the house was great too. We got to do a lot of fun things in the area. I would definitely stay here again.

Extra large home in quiet upscale neighborhood close to all the north shore has to offer. Especially loved the kitchen, bedrooms and outdoor areas. Well appointed home and would stay there again if returning to Kauai.
