Property Description
Welcome to our ocean, jungle, mountain/waterfall view Princeville condo on Kauai's spectacular North Shore, one of the most beautiful and peaceful locations on earth. The Princeville Resort area is known for its gorgeous beaches, world-class golf, top-notch surfing, snorkeling, swimming, hiking, kayaking, horse-back riding, tennis, helicopter tours, dining, and shopping.
We are brand new owners and just finished a complete renovation of the entire condo in August 2012. Enjoy the redesigned kitchen layout with new hardwood kitchen cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, dishes, utensils, and cookware. Relax while enjoying the new furniture, tile and bamboo flooring (no icky-sticky rental carpet!), quiet ceiling fans, luxurious bedding, linens, and bathrooms. Some people will advertise a renovated or remodeled condo, but they've only replaced a few things. Everything in our condo is new, current, comfortable and inviting.
There is a king bed in the master bedroom, TWO queen beds in the guest bedroom, and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. The two queens in the guest bedroom allow you to sleep 5 comfortably in beds without having to use the sleeper sofa in the living room. The guest bedroom is not a master, so the 2nd bathroom in the condo is in the hallway. Our condo is on the second (top) floor so you don't have the noise of anyone above you, and you have privacy since people walking around outside can't see in through the windows like they can in bottom floor units (no fishbowl effect). The condo has everything you need for a great vacation, including beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, books, movies, games, 42 inch flat screen, WIFI and more.
Ali'i Kai II is known in Princeville as one of the most quiet, peaceful, and immaculately landscaped complexes in the area, and our unit is in the building with the best location in the entire complex. We have a partial ocean view from our lanai and breathtaking jungle, mountain/waterfall views from the dining room, kitchen, master bedroom, and master shower windows. Ours is the only building with great views from both sides. Every other building has a parking lot only or parking lot/pool view from the dining room, kitchen, master bedroom, and master shower windows. Like most properties near the coast on Kauai, we do not have air conditioning, but we have ceiling fans in each room, and the cooling trade winds hit our condo perfectly. Also, the lanai's in our building don't face the direct sun, so you can comfortably sit out on the lanai all day long if you want to without overheating as you would in other buildings. Right outside the front door is a large greenbelt bordering a jungle canyon filled with tropical birds which sing the most beautiful songs each morning and afternoon. We are also close to the pool area (but not too close to be disturbed) with it's newly renovated and immaculate pool, separate kiddie pool, large hot tub, and ready to use gas bar-b-ques.
If you have read this far it is likely that you are familiar with the Princeville Resort area and all of its condominiums and fun things to do. You just need to decide where to go. Don't get stuck in just another 'condo'. We have taken great care to outfit the property with everything you will need for a worry free stay. No cloak and dagger here or disappointment; just beautiful, no hassle fun for a reasonable cost on the spectacular North Shore of Kauai.

The three of us, me, my spouse, and my 23 year old daughter stayed in this condo for roughly a week while on vacation in Kauai. Kauai was beautiful and our lodging allowed us to maximize the enjoyment of our stay. The place was the perfect size, it was cozy and home-y, every thing was very comfortable. At first we didn't know that there was no a/c, but we don't have any at home in Michigan either (which is common for older, non-updated houses) so we knew to open the windows to get fresh air. We got there very late at night, and we were exhaustedfrom travel, so we figured we'd figure out the a/c in the morning. Well, we finally realized the next day that there was no a/c, or HVAC of any kind, I was really surprised because the complex and neighborhood look to be built in the time frame that, in the Mid-West, would have had central air in every unit. Well, since we were seasoned no central air people, we were able to accept the lack of a/c as part of life. The breeze from the open windows and ceiling fans was more than sufficient to keep us cool when we were in the unit, even at night sleeping. Slept great! Probably better than if there was a/c.The host has guidebooks and other types of material on the coffee table and let me tell you, I took full advantage of the reading material. I actually lost my phone the second day we were there--not in the unit, but on a public beach. I never recovered it while we were there, so I READ BOOKS. A last word--the water pressure is AWESOME.

Some friends and I stayed here with a plan to be outside exploring the island during the days. We basically just wanted somewhere to sleep peacefully, shower, and eat. This place more than exceeded that. They provided many towels, boogie boards, and some other outdoor stuff. The resort is super quiet. Some reviews complained about noisy roosters. You can definitely hear them pretty much 24/7 but it's not that bad. Get yourself tired on the beach and sleep will not be an issue. Overall, great experience. Host communicated when necessary, and wasn't pushy or annoying like hosts I've had in the past. Easy check-in and check-out process. Would recommend

Amazing view of the mountains from the bed was my favorite thing about this unit! Everything was very clean and it was nice to have a fan when the sun got intense in the afternoon. We enjoyed staying here and would highly recommend this rental.

Every space is full of something - a knickknack or household items leaving NO PLACE to put the things you want to unpack. Eg.The closet is 2/3 full of bedding leaving little space to hang clothing, the dresser top is cluttered with pretty ocean-themed knickknacks. Every cupboard is full. The unit needs a deep clean - cupboard doors are sticky. Lightbulbs were burned out - we had one of four bulbs above the dining table not burnt out. The main area heats up (we were there in December) because the large window in the dining room has no blinds to keep out the heat and it faces the sun. It looks like there were blinds at one time, but are not there now. Location is great & view is lovely otherwise.

The condo has good facilities and is quite spacious. It was great to see the turtles in the cave so close to the condo. We celebrated Christmas there and found plenty of kitchenware for cooking and serving needed. The main bed was comfortable but the second bedroom and sofa bed mattresses could do with updating.

The stay was ok, the bedding (mattresses) need to be replaced as they are all old and very uncomfortable. Furniture in the living room is also wore done. Window sills in 2nd bedroom has mold on the frames.
The shower's were good, and there is plenty of towels. the place was clean overall though.
We had plenty of hot water, the dish washer did not clean the dishes as it needs to be replaced. The roosters/chickens outside the complex were so loud, had to sleep with ear plugs every night. For the amount of money it costs to rent the place, we won't go back.
They host was accommodating and let us check out later, we appreciated that very much and the host provided good information about the island also.

Loved our stay here with family. The condo was centrally located to all we wished to see and visit. We were happy to have access to beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, boards and more. Loved the pool to swim in at the end of the day. I highly recommend this condo.

We really enjoyed the stay here. Easy process and excellent place. The location is beautiful, pool is great, and access to everything is easy. The place is colorful and the kitchen is very handy for company. We had family staying close by during our stay and we liked our place best.

The property was perfect in our estimation. It had all the amenities my family could want or need and was beautifully decorated. The location was ideal with incredible views from both the front and back sides. It was rather hot when we first arrived and there is no AC, but the cross breeze from open windows and the many ceiling fans made it quite comfortable throughout our stay. Our host also provided helpful recommendations for beaches, snorkeling, restaurants, etc, It was a lovely condo and relaxing vacation.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Eric’s beautiful home on Kaui. In the front of the property you have the stunning view of the ocean and in the master bedroom you have a beautiful view of the rainforest and mountain. Very peaceful and prefect place to get a way on a quiet vacation with your loved ones.Eric is a very gracious and generous host, answering every question and fulfilling every need. We will definitely love to come back again.

As a fellow Vrbo Owner, I would like to be able to recommend this property, but for us the bad outweighed the good. Ok communication up to the point of second payment (welcome guide), then nothing. No response to my emails on recommendations, no response to my emails when power went out. I’ll stop here. It was a crash pad for our family each night in between day trips to different parts of the island. This place has one thing going for it: location.

We had a wonderful time at the condo in Princeville. This location provides views of Kauai that are incredible. The mountains on one side if you prefer breakfast at the dining room table or the ocean if you prefer the lanai.
The combined pool, hot tub, kids pool and grilling area are awesome. Cook while the family enjoys these amenities along with many seats and umbrellas to sit under. A nice, covered space with tables, chairs and a counter for preparing and eating meals outside in this area as well.
Princeville is like its own little town with a plaza out front for shopping of all kinds. Many areas to walk and ride bikes. Close to the beautiful Hanalei Bay and so many other beaches as well.
Our 11-day stay was made just glorious at Eric's place.
Pictures don't do justice to just how beautiful it is at the condo and surrounding area.
Would go back in a heartbeat!
