Literally everything you will need! This unit was clean and delightfully quiet. The grounds are lovely and neighbors are conscious of light pollution, so you'll have a wonderful view of the stars at night. The air conditioning works great--you'll only need a few minutes to cool down bedrooms at night. You'll find shopping and food within walking distance and many beaches just minutes away. Best of all, every single thing you could need is already here. The host has gone far beyond the usual stocked kitchen and plentiful towels. You'll be provided with games, toys, and books for your time in the condo. Plus there are beach chairs and towels, snorkel gear, boogie boards, coolers, outdoor games...even water shoes! The property has great information about the area, including notes on the Hawaiian language, restaurant suggestions, and an introduction to the community cat, who will be happy to visit with you if you so desire. The host was in touch during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed and checking in and out could not have been easier. This is a 5-star stay in every way!
House was clean and well stocked. The beach accessories were a welcome bonus as we went to a different beach every day. The host was more than helpful when we asked about the are as well. Thanks again!
We had a wonderful at stay at this place! It was the perfect comfy home to come back to after having long days out. They also had great beach equipment which we really enjoyed using. Would stay here again!
Super cute rental with everything you need! We loved Bonkers too!
Had an awesome stay! Great location and place!
Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Good beds. My family wanted to bring bonkers the cat home.
Great place! My only wish was that every bedroom had an air conditioner unit because we have 4 kids and needed to use all rooms. Other than that it is a great property!
This welcoming home was exactly what our family needed after a busy week in Honolulu. Tucked into what felt like a tropical forest, it was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals plus a grocery store and farmers market just minutes away.Some things worth mentioning: My family enjoyed the local kitties and chickens that would visit us every morning. The roosters do crow at odd times, but turn on a fan at night and you won't even hear them. The house is also stocked with toys and games. I saw a pack and play in the closet as well. Ema has boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels for you. There is a lot of storage to unpack your things and spread out. There are 3 separate air conditioning units that help cool down the house and lots of fans, but we found if you just open all the windows, it was just as nice.Ema was so sweet to leave a small basket of local goodies on the beautiful wooden table where we shared so many special family meals. She shared lots of advice on where to visit and what we could do. This house was in the perfect location — peaceful and tucked away, yet super close to everything. The beach was a walk away, and even more beaches just minutes down the road. Kauai is truly the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen with my own eyes, and we feel so lucky to have experienced it.
Lovely, well equipped home. Clean, comfortable and great location. We appreciated how well stocked it was from tissues in each room, nice bathroom supplies and many kitchen tools. The one issue that we had was immediately resolved by Chris, the manager. We really enjoyed our stay and all fell in love with Bonkers, the cat. Oh, and we were the first to christen the new outdoor shower which is a great addition.
Wonderful location, beautiful stay! Mahalo Kauai
This was a nice house for a stay in Princeville – great location near to Princeville and Hanalei. The house was clean, comfortable and well situated. There are boogie boards and beach towels and beach toys – great to have these supplied.Communications withe owner and property manager were good.
Great North Shore location! Property well maintained, clean comfortable and loved all the beach gear that was handy for use. Beaches, sight seeing and shopping were all a short drive or walk away. We’ll be back! Mahalo!
Stayed here with my family (4 adults and 2 teenagers). Place was very inviting and clean. Beautiful location. Host was very accommodating and helpful. Highly recommend.
I loved the quiet street and feeling like we were away from the tourist areas. Close proximity to the beach and Hanalei Bay. It’s about a 20min walk to the beach via the private path and a 5 min drive to Hanalei. It’s also a 4 min drive or 15 min walk to the Makai golf course. Highly recommend the 7th hole sunrise yoga! Bonkers the cat was a welcome guest each morning and night-we miss him! Thank you for sharing your lovely home.
Our family of 5 had a fantastic time staying here! The home is well located in Princeville, and was equipped with everything we needed for a seamless trip to Kauai!
If you are looking for a well situation condo in the Princeville / Hanalei area, this will work well. It even comes with a rental kitty! The unit is very functional with all needed amenities EXCEPT coffee and spices. I recommend if you are going to cook in, plan to bring your own spices and bagged coffee (not pods). I would say you do NOT need to waste baggage space on beach towels, snorkel gear, body boards, cooler etc. It's all there and ready for you. You will need to make ice via ice tray as needed or run up to the corner store. We would stay here again if our visit was focused on the North side. On this trip, most of our activities were in the South. We should have booked around Poi Pu and saved multiple hours driving and being stuck in traffic that is 5x what it was 10 years ago. The secret of Kauai is out! That is no slight on this property though.
It is a lovely home with thoughtful items available to make any stay comfortable and enjoyable. The location is the perfect mix of seclusion and accessibility. We had a great stay.
We had a great stay here, the place was very clean, location was great - a quick drive into Hanalei, and the host was so thoughtful of a visitor's needs in the condo. Just enough amenities to be helpful vs overwhelming, and plenty of space to spread out. I did enjoy the community cat, Bonkers, and the place is very peaceful, quiet.
Clean, well equipped condo. We liked the location, and the visitig cat.
We had a great stay. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We were just there to sleep and have breakfast, otherwise were on the go. It was convenient for the Princeville and Hanalei area. The only issue was that the washer was not usable and we weren’t informed until after check in. We had other family staying close by so we were able to do laundry there, The host did offer to make arrangements for laundry if we needed it, but don’t know how that would have worked.
When we first arrived after a treacherous day of travel due to weather, the unit wasn’t ready for us and typically this would have just been a rocky start to our trip but that was not the case. The way that the home owner but most importantly, the cleaning company owner made things right with us made the trip better than we could have ever imagined. He gave us the best tips on where to go, where to eat, etc. He checked in throughout the trip to make sure we were covered. Made sure the home had all the basics needed, towels, beach chairs, coolers even. The home is adorable, it’s about a mile from the cutest beach and less than a mile in the opposite direction to the cutest restaurants and the local foodland. Overall we had an awesome stay & in grateful we had Chris & that we picked this home to stay in.
Great location on the north side of the island. Home fit our family perfectly. AC worked great and cooled off the rooms quickly. Foodland was close and convenient for food and other needs.
We truly enjoyed our stay! The location is amazing, the home is well equipped with the basics (kitchen, bathrooms and some beach accessories as a bonus) and it is priced fairly. Highly recommend.
Our family of 4 had a great stay! Comfortable and spacious and a fantastic location. Kitchen was very well equipped and the air conditioning units worked well. As others have said, careful not to trip the fuse if you blow dry your hair but if this happens it’s easily remedied via the cupboard in the downstairs bathroom. Super well located- we enjoyed walking down to nourish and the local beach which is lovely. Handy beach equipment. Quiet. Thank you Ema!
I have stayed at 6 different VRBO condos over the years and this is my favorite one so far. Overall it was very comfortable and functional. The beds were very comfortable and I slept great. Every bedroom had a vanity table with magnified mirrors, plenty of closet space and hangers, and ceiling fans. The living area had plenty of comfortable seating for my family of 5 and was a great place to relax. The kitchen and dining area was functional and clean. The entire condo was decorated nicely. My family loved it! Bonkers, the neighborhood cat, was a highlight for my three kids. He visited us at the back patio everyday and my kids were thrilled. The location was also great. We were able to walk down the street and see amazing views of Hanalei Bay. Also there is a trail at the end of the street that leads all the way to the ocean! Beautiful! Magical! Best trip ever! If we go back I will try to book here again.
This was a college graduation gift for our daughter and it was wonderful for all of us . The VRBO description was accurate right down to the friendly kitty who visited us. We would definitely come again. Maybe when our other daughter graduates.
Nice, clean place to stay conveniently located to nearby Hanalei and stores. Very workable for my family of five. Owner was super responsive when I had questions or any minor issues. VRBO was very late in getting the check in instructions to me, but that is not the owner’s issue. She was kind enough to forward them to me by herself.
Cute property and great location. Loved the kitties that came to visit!!!
A wonderful place with everything you could need. You could walk or drive to the dead end road and take a hile into Hanalei.
