Beautiful ocean front condo. I added some pictures of the views. Loved relaxing and listening to the ocean day and night. Even though there is no A/C we were able to sleep comfortably with the ocean breeze coming in the windows and ceiling fan. The host sent a great list of island must-sees and also had a couple of books available which was helpful. The kitchen is well equipped and there was plenty of beach gear to use. Everything was clean and just as we expectes. We had no troubles finding the place or getting in. Very nice and quiet property.
Princeville & Hanalei were gorgeous. So relaxing. The view ftom this VRBO was beautiful and you can hear the waves crashing at night!
Pics don't do the view justice. It was "hot and humid" the whole time we were here and the lack of AC wasn't a big deal at all. Place is dated, but who cares. A great jumping off spot for all the Kuai north side spots. Would stay here again in a heartbeat
The location was perfect for us and our two teenage grandsons. The view of the ocean from the balcony was stunning.
Home was very clean and welcoming. Great location. Property owner was helpful with any questions. I definitely recommended.
Beautiful view that is breathtaking!! Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Close to everything, we will be back!
This listing was very accurate in its advertisement of stunning views. My wife and I loved sipping a morning coffee on the lanai, overlooking the ocean. Our kids (19 and 15) had plenty of room to spread out. We had a lot of our dinners just sitting out on the lanai, spotting turtles and birds. We hadn't been to Kauai in 26 years, and it was wonderful. My kids and I even went down the trail (be careful!) to the turtle cove and waded into the cave and saw 7 turtles! The only issue we had is that it was a little warm at night, and it wasn't during a heat wave. We have always stayed in a place that has AC in Hawaii, so we took a gamble, and it paid off with views...it was just and adjustment to sleeping with covers off, windows open and opening doors and windows to find the optimal cross-breezes. But, my family is just heat-averse, I personally was fine. The decor and furniture is a bit outdated, but that didn't bother us. Check-in was wonderful and the owner was very communicative and accommodating. We kayaked the river, swung off ropes into fresh-water pools, and did a NaPali coast boat tour with snorkeling. We will definitely want to come back to this condo.
Carrie's home was perfect for our long stay on Kauai!She is very knowledgeable about the island.

Our family of 5 was visiting Kauai for spring break. The views from the large windows and lanai are spectacular! We saw a whale one day and could see turtles swimming below in the surf. The property was very clean with well appointed furnishings. The beds are very comfortable. I really appreciated the extra fan in the master bedroom to add white noise when I went to bed early and my kids stayed up to watch movies. There were several beach towels, beach chairs, & masks and snorkels for us to choose from which was a huge plus because snorkeling was a big part of our trip. There were also 2 Boogie Boards provided which my husband and sons used. Everything was great and I couldn’t be more pleased with our stay here. Will definitely come again if we have the opportunity down the road!
This place was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. The amenities were simply perfect for us, not to mention the lovely lanai with a breathtaking view and active whales, dolphins and birds. Loved the binoculars and really enjoyed the guide books. The listing of your favorite things to do was greatly appreciated and thorough. We’ve been to Kauai many times and found many new fun things to do in your write. Super washer and dryer - beach toys including thick beach towels and sand mats were in great shape and plentiful. Can’t thank you enough for having various size fins and snorkel gear. Again, just perfect. Linens, pillows, bedding, were exceptionally comfortable and of good quality. Everything was amazing. Loved the well equipped orderly kitchen - especially the containers with lids and non-breakable drinking glasses that made it so easy for beach picnics and such. Trade winds and abundant fans made the stay pleasant. Again, a thousand thanks for sharing your beautiful, comfortable well appointed place. This unit is not fancy, just very simple and practical with tremendous Aloha. People like us could not come to paradise if it weren’t for people like you trusting strangers in your home. Mahalo.
Excellent place to stay. Only problem is we were hoping for a refund of our money we needed to pay for damage problems that never occured.

Absolutely amazing stay! The hosts had everything you could ever possibly need from snorkel gear (and multiple sets) to beach chairs, cooking utensils, and amazing binoculars to watch the whales - which we did for our 3 day stay! I loved the DECOR! So oceany!!! Highly recommend the cliffside stay! We did not have a lot of time to explore the trails around the condo, but it looked like quite the adventure if you decided to do those things as well! Loved it!!!
Wonderful views - could hear the ocean all night long and woke every morning to full ocean views.
As advertised, views, from every room.Great place to unwind after a long day of hiking. Lots of neighbors but pleasantly quiet for the amount of people.
This unit is about as close to the ocean as you can get and the bedroom closet is full of all the beach equipment you need! The kitchen is very well stocked with cookware/utensils so we went to Costco/Walmart in Lihue and loaded up on groceries to prepare most of our meals in the condo...restaurants around there are expensive! My ONLY complaint is the low chairs on the lanai isn't ideal for whale watching. Taller chairs would bring your line of sight above the railing instead of through it. I brought my own but nice touch having binoculars in the unit! The whales gave us multiple shows during the week!
The condo was exactly as described and full of amenities for the beach! We felt very at home and spent many hours on the lanai watching the beautiful ocean. We even saw whales. It was a perfect spot to travel the north coast and also head down to the south coast for other fun excursions!

Beautiful views.
Great view and location. Clean and good appliances / washer dryer. No A/C but ocean breeze greatly mitigates especially at night.
North shore of Kauai has nice vibe and we very much enjoyed our stay.
Our family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers were able to spread out and make ourselves at home in this spacious condo. The kitchen and beach equipment were well stocked. The location is perfect for driving access to Hanalei and Anini beaches. The view from the windows and lanai are gorgeous! We especially loved how peaceful and private it felt, unlike a crowded resort. We hope to be back!
Fantastic property in Princeville with wonderful views of the ocean-- we would love to stay here again!
The view is beautiful and the condo was very comfortable. The photos in the listing don't do it justice. The area is quiet. The Foodland supermarket nearby has a good selection including a deli with poke. Our family had a great stay.
We have 40+ years of experience as time share owners, VRBO renters and Vacation Club members.
The unit is on the second floor, but the building is on a slope so you walk right up to the unit – no stairs. Entering the condo we immediately noticed the amazing ocean view from the balcony. We really liked the spaciousness of the kitchen with a separate island and the new washer/dryer. The kitchen was well furnished with just about everything you would need. The bedrooms were good sized, the beds comfortable and the pillows soft. The bathrooms were small but serviceable. The furnishings were somewhat dated; wicker/bamboo trim, Formica counter top, pressed board cabinets but clean and well maintained.
There is a closet packed with beach equipment; chairs, umbrellas, children sand beach toys, bogie boards, picnic coolers, snorkel gear and a surfboard.
At night you can hear the waves crashing on the shore and feel the ocean breezes through the bedroom windows – you will sleep well.
There is a gas grill in front of the building.
The resort has a small pool and there is no beach access (you’re on a cliff). There is a beach four miles south: Anini Beach: Great for families, restrooms, watch the wind surfers. Five miles north there is Hanalei Beach: left side of the pier swimming and surfing, right side of the pier, shallow water, great for families. Surfing lessons are available at beachside.
There were no major negatives with the resort or rental unit.
We would rent from them again
We had a wonderful stay. Great location.
This is the second time we stayed here and will definitely stay here again when we return. No reason to look anywhere else.
The condo was well stocked with beach accessories, the washer and dryer were new, the bed was comfortable and the location was excellent. Would definitely recommend!
Carrie was great to work with and very responsive to my inquiries.
We had wonderful experience staying in this very clean, well equipped condo which included everything you need to take to the beach. It’s an older building with bathrooms that could use an update, but they are very clean and in excellent working order. The views out back of the ocean and shoreline are spectacular.
Look forward to coming back again sometime. Thanks again, Carrie!
As described, for starters- Yay for that! Clean and smelled welcoming. Easy parking and the area feels safe and close to what we wanted. The unit was equipped perfectly for serving as our base for our adventures and hikes. The hose outlet on the building made it easy to rinse muddy hikers or sandy things outdoors. The full size new washer and dryer made it convenient to pack light and throw a load in before heading on to the other side of the island. Beds and sofa sleeper were cozy. Plenty of fans and the ocean breezes and sounds were heavenly. They didn't skimp on hangers or pillows or closet space or beach chairs or towels. We are very satisfied. We would recommend this property to anyone considering it. Thank you for blessing our family! Our only complaint..the time went too fast at this place.
The home is a lovely space with lots of accessories for beach fun. Well stocked kitchen and clean all around. We loved the wild north coast beaches (please use caution during winter). It was a wonderful week long stay at this location. The pictures capture it well but once you arrive and see it with your own eyes, it’s a magnificent view. Thank you for the lovely stay.
