*NEW* Princeville Ocean Views for Slow Kauai Mornings

Princeville · Kauai · 1 bedrooms · 2 bathrooms · Sleeps 3 · 30 reviews

Rental Details

Rental Overview

Summary:

Wake to a wide North Shore ocean view, make breakfast at home, and watch the light move across the Pacific from your furnished lanai. This upgraded Alii Kai condo sleeps three in one bedroom with two baths, a full kitchen, fast WiFi, and a queen sofa bed in the living room. Spend a quiet morning on the grounds, take a dip in the shared outdoor pool, or play tennis before heading out to Princeville's beaches. In season, the lanai is a lovely place to look for whales offshore. Hanalei's bay, restaurants, and shops are down the hill, while Anini Beach is a nearby option for calmer reef-protected water. This is a comfortable fit for a couple or small family who wants Kauai's north shore views without giving up the ease of a real kitchen and room to exhale.

The Space:

The living area is bright and open to the view, with a built-in desk, comfortable seating, and a queen sofa bed for the third guest. The kitchen has stainless appliances, granite counters, seating for two, and a dining table for four. One bedroom and two baths make the layout easy for a couple or small family, while the furnished lanai is where you will want morning coffee and an eye on the ocean.

Guest Access:

Guests at Alii Kai Resort enjoy access to a shared outdoor pool and beachfront grounds along Kauai's north shore in Princeville. Outdoor seating areas and a lit path to the entrance add ease and comfort. Some resort facilities are operated independently by the resort.

The Neighborhood:

Princeville is Kauai's clifftop North Shore community, known for ocean views, tropical greenery, and convenient access to Hanalei. Princeville Center covers the practical things with groceries and casual food, while Hanalei town offers beach time, shops, and a more local day out. Anini Beach is nearby for calm, reef-protected water, and the area has coastal viewpoints and trails when you want to move beyond the sand. Choose Princeville for a quieter home base where you can see the island's lush side each time you look outside.

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.

Other Things to Note:

TV streaming services require guest accounts to access. This property is managed by Heavenly Vacations.

Our local Heavenly Vacations Kauai team is just a call or message away throughout your stay. We are always happy to share our favorite places to enjoy on the Garden Isle, and we are here to help right away should any issue arise. We respect your privacy and are here whenever you need us.

Property was as advertised. Clean, comfortable and had everything needed to be home away from home. Location was great - close to shopping and restaurants. Community amenities were accessible and clean. Would definitely recommend to other and would stay here again.

The listing made no mention that the unit doesn't have AC, as some one whom suffers from outdoor allergens this was a serious problem. GPS doesn't have the correct location for the unit, it puts you about 2 blocks away. The listing also doesn't mention the stairs, you would assume if the beach is right out the back door it would be ground level, well it is but the parking lot is not, you have to go down a flight of stairs to get to this unit. We found a few live roaches. The sliding screen door doesn't work properly and untracks often when trying to open or close it. There is not screen for the front door, which opening that door allowed for the breeze to flow in, to cool the place. The fees on this unit are ridiculous all things considered. It is pimped out by a third party property manager (Vacasa), they are over charging for the property and it's condition. I'm very disappointed and feel like I got cheated

Excellent location. Kind of messy in kitchen. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay.

Beautiful view and a very well-equipped apartment, but the neighbors upstairs were very loud, which was quite disturbing at night. A pity — otherwise, it would have been a perfect location.

The condo is very nice and spacious and has an incredible view. The management team was very helpful with questions we had. We would stay there again.

We have made multiple trips to Princeville over the years and have always stayed in building 5 at Alii Kai in Princeville. This trip was our first time staying in this particular unit, and we have decided it is our new favorite! All of the units in building 5 have spectacular views. Our preference is the be on the ground floor so we can walk straight out onto our lanai and also to the adirondack chairs on the grass. Compared to the other units we have rented in building 5, this one was the most updated, the cleanest, and the most well-stocked. At some point the second bedroom was eliminated in a remodel and the livingroom/sitting area was thus expanded. Unless you need a second bedroom, the extra livingroom space is very nice. I also appreciated the desk/work area, as I always travel with my laptop and it was nice to not have to set up my work area on the dining room table. The property management company was very responsive. We realized that there wasn't a toaster in the unit as there should have been. We reached out and a new toaster was delivered to our door that same day! The next time we visit Princeville, we'll definitely be staying in this unit.

The condo is nicely updated with contemporary furnishings. The views from the bedroom and living areas are stunning. The ocean facing backyard with the nenes and roosters was equally gorgeous. We even saw some whales while sitting on the backyard chairs. The huge shower in the en-suite bathroom was very therapeutic and relaxing. The condo was nicely stocked with beach gear and towels. The washer and dryer were sizable and convenient for laundering our swimsuits. One recommendation we have is to get rid of the glasses or kitchenware that are stained or worn. Overall, we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Great view. Spacious condo. Wonderful shower. Very comfortable bed. Beach chairs nice. Well stocked kitchen and baths. Nice having 2 bathrooms, but the second bathroom doesn't have a shower, just the jetted tub. Good to have the laundry in unit.

This is such a special place. We spent our mornings having tea looking out at the ocean in the cliffside adirondack chairs. During the day, we were greeted by geese, then chickens, roosters, pigeons, and more. A frog visited us too. We loved waking to the view and sounds of the ocean. The unit was well stocked with extra towels, everything you need in the kitchen, and even washing detergent for the washer/dryer, which was super convenient. There were two of us, and the extra bathroom was a real luxury. Very spacious. Just an all-around great place to stay. There were a couple things to be aware of though, which are out of the control of the host...people do walk by in front of the unit. Not a lot, but definitely a handful each day. So you do not have total privacy. Also, being the bottom unit, you will hear people walking in the unit above. This was remedied for us with earbuds and only a minor annoyance. Pure bliss for us!!

Great property in an amazing location with any amenity I would personally be looking for. For the price, no other place short term rental can beat this one on Kauai!

Lovely way to watch sunrise and sunset on small patio off living room. Great view from all windows. Watch the sunrise from bed.
