About this property
Summary:
After a North Shore beach day, come home to a private hot tub beneath Princeville's palms and let the whole group reset before dinner. This updated three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath house sleeps seven near the Makai Golf Club, with air conditioning and a generous backyard wrapped in greenery for a welcome feeling of privacy. Hardwood floors, high vaulted ceilings, and broad windows keep the interior bright, while the full kitchen and tiki bar make a relaxed night in easy. Grill outside, play a board game, or simply let the kids use the yard while the adults take a breath. Anini Beach is nearby for gentler snorkeling, and Hanalei's beach, food, and small-town shops make a fine outing. This is the kind of home that lets a family or friends traveling together enjoy Kauai's lush side at their own pace.
The Space:
Vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and large windows bring a bright, renovated feel to this single-level home. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths sleep seven, with a full kitchen and tiki bar for easy nights in. Air conditioning helps after sunny North Shore days. Outside, mature greenery adds privacy around the yard, patio, grill, and private hot tub.
Guest Access:
This Tiki Hale home offers a private, self contained stay next to the Makai Golf Club, with its own patio or balcony and a lit path to the entrance at night. Guests have full use of the BBQ grill and kitchen on-site. There are no shared resort amenities, just a quiet, independent retreat.
The Neighborhood:
Princeville is a verdant North Shore neighborhood above Hanalei Bay, known for its mountain views, golf, and quick access to some of Kauai's most photographed coast. Anini Beach is nearby for snorkeling in more sheltered water, while the drive to Hanalei brings you to surf, shops, casual dining, and the wide sweep of the bay. Princeville Center makes everyday errands simple before heading out on a trail or beach day. It is a strong fit for groups who want Kauai's scenic, greener side with a calm place to retreat after exploring.
Getting Around:
Lihue Airport is about 40 minutes away via a scenic drive along Kauai's coast. A rental car is highly recommended since the North Shore's beaches, restaurants, and Hanalei's shops are spread out. Princeville itself offers walkable access to some shops and dining, while beaches like Hanalei Bay are a short drive. Parking is typically available in lots or driveways at most properties.

This property is managed by Heavenly Vacations.

Went without internet for the first three days. Ants, giant cockroach, broken windows, door that wouldn’t open and filthy showers. It’s a quiet neighborhood and northern Kauai is one of the most beautiful places on earth. If you want a crash pad this might work for you. If you value cleanliness, quality and customer service I wouldn’t book this home. It wouldn’t take a lot of work to make this home nice but it’s clear it’s not well managed and no one cares to keep it up. I gave them a lot of opportunity to make things better and was ignored. It’s hard to mess up paradise but they found a way to do it. This is the first negative review I’ve ever written.
Great place to stay, house was well maintained and we appreciate it was equipped with all beach essentials.
1) The primary problem we had was the wifi. It was unusable. The network (TIKI_HALE) was almost always disconnected or connected without internet. Spectrum technician was called in, tried to fix, but it was unsuccessful. A second request for help wasn't answered. We are writers and use computers/wifi extensively. Had to use our own phone hotspots for entire stay -- at additional personal expense. Had to use hotspot to watch TV too.2) Master bathtub is unsafe. We added a mat and removable grab bar.3) Patio table is badly corroded. Needs to be replaced.4) Front door lock is finicky. We were unable to open house with it -- had to call support to access a lockbox key.5) Interior lighting is dim and one bulb was out.6) Found one bedbug in master bed.7) Had a problem with flies. Purchased fly traps to get under control.8) Kitchen screens fell out in wind. Had to put back in place.9) One faucet in hallway bathroom is faulty.10) Eaves troughs leak and water doesn't reach downspouts.
Lovely place, enjoyed the stay.
Spacious & well stockedThe photos don’t capture the spaciousness of this home. The living room is big, as is the dining area & kitchen. It’s well stocked in the kitchen for cooking, including utensils, pots & pans, pantry items & dishes. Also there are plenty of beach items to utilize. The outdoor shower was a welcome stop when coming home covered in salt & sand. The home was hot upon arrival, but we got the ac & fans going, and it cooled off. The backyard has a grill and table & chairs in a lush garden setting. Beds were comfortable on the firm side, which we prefer, with plenty of linens & towels. The swinging chair in front was the coveted spot to relax. Great location in princeville with quiet neighborhood. Communication was clear, consistent & easy. We’d return!
This house was perfect for our group of two couples and 3 young adults. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for the week. Make sure you use the outdoor shower.
Nice neighborhood and close to beaches
The house was great just as described. There was a lot of space for our group of 4 adults and one kid. Hot tub worked perfectly and they provided coolers, beach chairs and beach umbrella. Great space in the living room and kitchen area but I could see how it could get hot with no AC in the summer. the two
If you're seeking a quiet environment where you can enjoy the birds and wildlife in the backyard, I would highly recommend this home. Neighbors are quiet & home is well stocked with Beach towels, dishes & cutlery for the grill - which works well... A/C works well in all bedrooms. Plenty of play area outside in the yard for the little ones.... If you're looking for something more intimate that's not in a Condo/Timeshare Association - this home is for you....
This is a very nice large house. Very well supplied with towels -- bath, beach, and even towels for dirty shoes. Beautiful orchids and nice decoration, open and large. The living room area has a nice high-beamed ceiling and there are lots of fans. The AC in the bedrooms worked well and the 2.5 baths was a plus. We didn't use the hot tub but the maintenance guy came by so we saw it was cleaned weekly. All in all really great place!
This is a wonderful home for a group of six people. We recently stayed at Tiki Hale (two couples and two teenagers) for vacation. We chose it for the location. It's near Foodland, shops and eateries. It's a quick drive down to Hanalei Beach, more shops and restaurants (less than 10 minutes if traffic's not backed up). The home is surrounded by beautiful, tropical foliage. It's spacious enough for everyone to spread out. It's in a quiet neighborhood, near the golf course. It's easy to walk or jog around the area. The staff did a good job cleaning it before our arrival. We were pleasantly surprised with the treats to welcome us. We were able to get immediate responses to address minor concerns. We greatly appreciated that. I would recommend this location for people visiting Kauai for the first time and wanting to stay in a house rather than a hotel or condo. It's private, homey and in an ideal location.
