Great location, nice condo, only issue no a/c, nights were a warm with just the fans. (But there were 4 of them!) Really great having beach chairs, umbrella ( which was broken, the screw in bottom portion stripped out so couldn’t drill it into the sand), snorkeling gear for 2. Nice it had a toaster oven for cooking and a big fridge and freezer.
Overall we were very pleased with the location, amenities and how comfortable the apartment was. Although the apartment is compact, the space felt open and offered a large private patio with a lush tropical view, in addition to a community pool. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The check-in and check-out instructions, property and parking access, use of electronic devices in the apartment were very clear and easy to follow. However, the modem was tempermental and we could not access or log-into our streaming apps. The amenities were beyond awesome - beach chairs, beach umbrella and towels were provided for two, along with a cooler and ample shampoos, conditioners and toiletries. The kitchenette offered a microwave, toaster and toaster oven. We highly suggest that a hot plate be included for boiling water for cooking food, along with a metal tea kettle. The plastic water kettle created bad-tasting water and we did not feel that we could cook pasta or rice with it. For the price and location, we give 5 stars!
*The property was cute, having perfect space for a solo traveler. My suggestion would be to incorporate a hot plate or an electric stove/ skillet to be able to cook.*The breaker would pop if I left the toaster oven on too long.*The tv could be more user friendly. It kept saying it couldn’t find a connection to connect. Otherwise the owners intrusions to using the tv were great. The pool hours stated in the owners FYI booklet were incorrect. (I didn’t have a pencil to leave him a note :( … besides the cooking stuff, great time and great place.
Everything was perfect! Exactly as described and expected. We greatly enjoyed this cute bungalow on the north shore. Highly recommended and would come back in a heartbeat.
It was a nice stay and the host had good recommendations for places to go and things to see!
Given that this is Hawaii and it is a Studio rental the condition , cleanliness and facilities were very nice
My wife and I stayed for a week. Location was perfect for all the activities we had planned. The drive to the other side of the island wasnt very long (about an hour) so on days we ventured to the southern part of the island it was no problem. Check in process was easy and the condo was well stocked. Would highly recommend this property.
Everything was great about this vacation rental experience. Rick, the owner was incredibly helpful as we set things up, and while we were there, genuine aloha... There were no big issues, but he was immediately responsive & helpful. The unit was exactly as described, extremely clean and comfortable, perfectly set up for 2 guests in a lovely easy to find spot. (We also appreciated good quality fans, and enough of them during a very hot weekend.) Rick also provides extremely helpful info in the unit with a great map, about what to see and do, exactly how to find places-so we wasted no time figuring things out. We already know the area very well, but imagine to a first timer this info would be priceless. He even suggested a few things/places were unaware of-mahalo! It was an excellent experience. We'd love to come again and stay longer...
It was a great location. Close to many beaches, including one real secluded beach just down the street. Close to grocery stores and amazing restaurants. Response time from owner was very quick. Great experience.
Our stay here was great. The property was beautiful, in a great location and easy to access. Rick communicated with us very well, he responded quickly and was very professional. This property was wonderful for my wife and I on our honeymoon stay, however there is no A/C so it does get hot.
Everything was just perfect 10/10
We had an excellent experience staying at this VRBO. Property was clean, had all the amenities you’d need, and was a great deal for the area. I would stay here again when I return to the island.
Perfect place in the best location on the island. We couldn't be happier with our stay.
We absolutely loved our stay here, and it was the perfect location for the northside of the island. The place was clean, stocked with what we needed, and an incredible valiue.
We loved our time in Kauai and in the Paniolo condos. The room was clean and Rick had all the kitchen supplies you could need. One piece of advice, read through the red folder when you check in. It wasn’t until the morning we left that I realized we had snorkel equipment in a box on the porch and I never got to use it!
The perfect, central location in Princeville! Clean, cute little studio. Had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.
Such a cozy, well appointed space!
This condo is well supplied and comfortable. We really appreciated the beach chairs, cooler and snorkel gear! Bed was very comfy! Peaceful setting.
It was the perfect place. Clean and had everything I needed. Walking distance to Foodland and just overall beautiful. Perfect for a solo or couple trip no complaints
Rick was really responsive when we had a request. He let us check in early. The humidity caused us to need to hit a laundry facility half way through because the towels don’t dry very fast. An extra big POWERFUL fan would make it a little more comfy but it did cool down enough at night to sleep with the fans provided. Overall a really great stay, especially for the price. Location is nice. Thank you for the great stay.
This was a very comfortable place, very clean, with good access to the beaches, restaurants and other fun adventures on the North Shore
Perfect space for a solo traveller while in Kauai. Great stay, highly recommend. Host provided great instructions and information. Easy check-in and parking.
Would stay at this VRBO again.
My husband and I just spent 7 days here. The host, Rick, is true to his word about wanting to create a space that is restful, well equipped, and comfortable. We cooked full meals here using the toaster oven and hot skillet, enjoyed coffee on the porch, and loved walking to the beach that was just 8 minutes away. Would highly recommend staying here - it was quiet, felt safe, and a great distance from a lot of good adventure opportunities.
Thank you for an awesome week on Kauai!
good location, quiet and peaceful area. the house included all the necessary accessories for a stay of a few days. in line with other accommodations in the place that are not luxury hotels.
The apartment had all we need. It was very clean and the host was very responsive. Thanks for having us.
Easy to find with the directions and check in process after a long flight. The property was clean and very lively from people taking walks and cats and chickens of course. Defiantly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay on the north side of Kauai. :)
loft with a lot of amenities in a quiet neighborhood, near a beach and hiking trails
So much attention to detail.
