A few things to note about Puamana 3c:
- Is Puamana 3C right for you? If you're looking for a good-sized, air conditioned, reasonably priced, well-maintained (but older) residential condo in the middle of Princeville, it's a good fit for you. These are the qualities that our guests love. If you're looking for a resort with large pools that's been recently upgraded and has an ocean view .... and don't mind spending the extra money, then it's not the right place for you.
- The air conditioning system was installed in 2021. It is a central Mitsubishi "mini split" system. It has a central condenser (on the patio) and three individually controlled blowers: (1) Master bedroom (2) Guest bedroom (3) Living area. Some people ask me if air conditioning is needed ... my answer is "it depends." In the winter months (December to February), it's a bit cooler and A/C might not be needed. But the rest of the year, A/C provides a level of comfort that I certainly enjoy. I like to have it on in the evening, because I sleep better when it's cool and comfortable. And when I get back from a day of adventuring, I definitely like to have it on to provide some much-enjoyed relief. To me, it's a necessity but not everyone in Kauai has it.
- Puamana is a quiet, residential complex with very few vacation rentals. This makes for a nice peaceful environment

We just got back from a week stay at this condo in Princeville and it was lovely. The owner made sure that we had everything we could have possibly needed and was a great communicator. We really loved the little touches, like the fresh flowers, granola and a binder full of all kinds of great advice about the island. The location was perfect for us, as we spent the majority of the time on the North Shore. It was a quick entry into the community from the highway and a nearby hike down to Willey Beach. Our only complaint was that the showers were a little moldy on the caulking. My little girl doesn't like showers and we didn't feel super comfortable letting her soak in the tub. It's an older place (like most of the places in the area) but other than that, it was absolutely spectacular and we would definitely stay there again.

The owner of this VRBO goes above and beyond to accommodate his guests and ensure their stay is a positive and fun filled experience.From the moment I booked his condo, he was in communication with me, recommending activities to do during our stay, answering questions in great detail and accommodating us when unexpected construction on the pavement limited our access to the front door.The condo is centrally located in a cute resort community and a short drive to beaches, towns and stores. You can walk to the beach, if you’re okay with a steep path. The floor plan is open, spacious and clean. Having 2 floors for 2 couples was ideal! Special touches, such as an expresso maker and French press for coffee was nice, as well as games, literature about the island and everything needed to grill and cook meals. Keith was an excellent host!

We had a lovely time here but our stay felt too short! Hope we have the opportunity to visit again. Place was clean, good vibes, and Keith was very helpful! Thank you.

Quiet and comfortable location. We prefer the North end of the island for its beauty and chill atmosphere. The host is excellent in his communication and thoughtfulness. Plan to return!

This is our second year to stay in this condo. Very comfortable, clean and close to everything on the north shore. Great A/C as well. Owner is very responsive and provides his own personal guide to Kauai which we found very helpful. Will definitely return.

Keith was excellent with communication and personalizing our visit. Great welcome video and wonderful arriving to soft music and lighting. We arrived at 10 p.m. and it was a touch dicey getting to the unit as the complex's outside lighting was very sparse, felt like we had to 'feel' our way to the unit. Once in, though, we were very comfortable. The unit itself is very accommodating with just about everything anyone would need for a short or lengthy stay. Some aspect of the unit were a touch worn i.e. the countertop tile and washing machine, and we could not get the 1st floor BR ceiling fan to work as we would have preferred that over the a/c.Short walk down the hill to the beach, and local amenities, including hiking & groceries, etc, were easily accessible. Our first visit to Kauai in 45 years, 2.5 day was too short to take alot in, but it was nice to give it a current 'test run'. We are a swimming group, so the waters and alerts during the winter seemed a bit restrictive, but now we know;-)Thank you Keith and family for sharing your piece of heaven with us! Liz H and family

This property is a great choice for your stay on the north shore of Kauai! The host, Keith, is the best we've ever worked with. He is welcoming, responsive, attentive, gives personal suggestions for your trip, and makes a significant effort to ensure you have a nice stay. The property itself is also very comfortable. It has great lighting, a well-stocked kitchen, gear for you to use including boogie boards, snorkel gear, and beach chairs (among other items), and is very well located (only a few minutes down into Princeville Center and 10 minutes to Hanalei). Our family will definitely be staying at this property again on a future trip to Kauai if it's available.

The unit is well stocked and very clean. Owner easy to reach and had great recos for restaurants. AC unit works great - quick and quiet. Liked having the Westin a short walk away. Everything went very smoothly for our group of 4.

Great accommodations on Kauai! We stayed for a week with another couple and found everything we needed in the condo! The place was quiet, clean and comfortable! The location was great, just a short walk to Annini Beach and a quick drive to shopping and sites. The host was gracious and available if needed! We would definitely stay again! Fabulous!

Loved the property, had everything needed for a wonderful stay and truly felt like a home away from home. The AC units were heavenly! Location was really great, close to Saturday farmers market, grocery store, restaurants, Hanalei and many beautiful North Shore beaches. Particularly enjoyed hiking down to Puu Poa Beach via Hanalei Plantation as well as the far end of Annini Beach before you get to the main parking areas. Keith is a wonderful host sharing info/tips before and during the stay. He was the cherry on top, thanks so much!

My family and I loved staying at Keith's place. Keith was a great host and everything was very well thought out and well kept at his place. We were greeted by a welcome video on the Alexa in the kitchen which also played music for us as we made meals and ate at the house. We walked to the beach just down the street from Keith's place, enjoyed the pool and really appreciated the super convenient location to Hanalei and the Princeville shopping center, which has the grocery store and a few places to eat. We also used the pack and play, snorkeling gear and the kids sand toys he provided for our trip. We found Keith's guide very helpful and we branched off and found a some of our own fun things to do near his place. We would absolutely come and stay again, this is a really great place for our family vacation.
