Aloha and E Komo Mai (welcome)!
Our Hale Makai ('Ocean house') is a spectacular home at a great value. A rare corner unit with gorgeous 180 degree ocean views from all rooms and the wrap-around lanai, we invite you to come here, relax and enjoy the aloha that our vacation home provides (and that Kauai is world-famous for!). Please watch the short VIDEO of our place (you'll find it in with the photos). You will LOVE our condo!!!
The View
Our condo sits on the edge of a bluff overlooking the Pacific ocean and both bedrooms and the living room boast breathtaking ocean views. Wake up to an ocean view from your bed, fall asleep to the sounds of the ocean, have your morning coffee on the lanai and soak up the unspoiled ocean view. In season, watch the whales frolic and the albatross soar by without ever leaving. Also, our condo faces north so from the lanai you can also catch the colorful kaleidoscope of sunrise skies to the east and sunset skies to the west. Our condo is your front row seat to all of the above!
The Accommodations
Our condo is a two-bedroom, two-bath unit that sleeps five comfortably and is furnished with tropical, island-style decor. The master has a cal-king bed and the second bedroom has a queen bed, both with very comfortable plush-top mattresses and 700+-thread count linens. There is also a full-size air bed (which inflate and deflates in minutes). The master bedroom also has 35" smart TV - so you can use your Hulu/Amazon Prime/NetFlix account to stream your favorite movies.
The floor plan is open and airy, and the condo flows from a well-appointed kitchen (fully remodeled in April 2024) and island/bar to a separate dining area and comfortably furnished living area. For your entertainment, there is a 55” flat panel Smart TV (Roku/Netflix/Hulu/etc.) and an Alexa Echo Dot. There are ceiling fans throughout, as well as ample windows in our corner condo to catch the crisp, tropical breeze. We also provide snorkel gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, and other beach gear to suit all you needs.
The Ali'i Kai complex
Ali'i Kai is a small, quiet complex of 56 units spread over seven buildings. Lushly landscaped with palm trees, birds of paradise, hibiscus, and plumeria trees, the grounds are gorgeous. Ali'i Kai features a resort-style pool, as well as tennis court privileges at the Makai Tennis Club. There are charcoal BBQs in several locations nearby. The inviting walk/jog path that runs through Princeville - with breathtaking views of the mountains on one side and the ocean on the other - is only a half-mile away.
If you have questions, please call or email. Also, because I know that a trip to Hawaii is a major expense and for many it's the trip of a lifetime, I take seriously my responsibility to make your stay a memorable one. I will do everything I can to make you happy!...

Everything you could possibly need John has anticipated. Kitchen is stocked, extra sunscreen and insect repellent, snorkel and beach gear and more, made our stay comfortable and worry free. And beyond the comfortable beds and common area is the spectacular view of the ocean and the lovely cross breezes made air conditioning obsolete. John also thoughtfully provided us with lists of favorite beaches, restaurants, hikes, and other activities.
We hope to stay with him again.

This condo was amazing. The place was spotless, and even nicer than the photos as the kitchen had been recently renovated. It was very well stocked with everything you’d need in the kitchen, as well as beach gear. The ocean views from every room were gorgeous. It was quiet, and comfortable as well. We could not have asked for a better place to stay for this week on Kauai.

The condo was neat and clean and the view off the deck was spectacular! The condo was in a great location which made it easy to travel to and from anywhere on the island. I would highly recommend a stay there!

We absolutely loved our Condo. Love Alii Kai area, amazing view, close to Turtle Cove. Recently upgraded Kitchen. The trade winds were AMAZING standing in the living room. My ONLY complaint is that we had to leave!
John was very quick to respond and assist. 11 out of 10 review!

Our stay was lovely with an amazing view of the ocean from ALL rooms. Falling asleep to the sound of ocean surf was magical as was greeting the whales and turtles every morning. If you enjoy running, wonderful running loop that sends you down a steep fire road to Anini Beach to enjoy views of ocean surf and the lighthouse. The condo had everything we needed and was very comfortable. John is awesome to work with and is very prompt; we would absolutely stay in his place again. Now we must leave and likely get an ocean surf sound machine so we can sleep as well as we did in Kauai!!😁 Mahalo!

Our favorite spot in Princeville - nothing but sea and sky from the lanai. Great space for two couples with beach equipment, two baths, comfortable living room, equipped kitchen for cooking. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

The communication from the owner was great and he left us with really helpful tips on restaurants and activities. The condo is amazing. Right on the water. Watched the surf and whales right from the lanai, living room and bedroom. Nicely equipped kitchen allowed is to make a few dinners of fresh fish from a local market. Princeville is a great location to enjoy the north shore and is a nice community for morning walks before you start your day.

Would be a 10 out of 5 if I could. John’s place is very nice and well appointed! We went during a few rainy days and the views made up for not being able to leave. Saw lots of whales from our spot. Plus the waves lull you to sleep. Don’t miss Tahiti Nui in Hanalea and Tikilniki in Princeville shopping center! Would stay here again in a heart beat!

We had a wonderful trip during our recent anniversary getaway.
Princeville is a beautiful area, and the view from this unit was absolutely beautiful. We saw dolphins and whales the first few days, and then some pretty amazing ocean swells that changed the view completely .
We had never been to Kauai and were a little worried about the weather on the North side during the winter, but all we experienced were some very light rains that didn’t last too long.
The property is great, plenty of parking, and very clean. The crosswinds kept the unit cool, which was great because I typically need AC.
We would definitely stay again!

Great location and Great place! We loved our time there. Would definitely come back. Watching the whales from the Lanai having a cup of coffee in the morning was one of the highlights of the trip.

Great location on the ocean in a golf course community. Close to Hanalei and Kīlauea.

We had a wonderful stay! The property is older and a bit outdated but was clean and had an amazing view and was a great base camp for exploring the island. Waking up and falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing was so serene. We loved being able to sit on the bench overlooking the cliffside and watch the sunset in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were really comfortable. The property manager was very responsive to my messages and questions!
