Property Description
Mauna Kai 5A offers the perfect combination of comfort, style, and an unbeatable location on Kauai’s North Shore! This beautifully remodeled, fully air-conditioned townhome is ideal for those looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway, without sacrificing convenience. Inside, you'll find two spacious, well-appointed bedrooms, an open-concept living and dining area, and a fully stocked kitchen, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. The townhome’s décor is thoughtfully curated with artwork from local Kauai artists, adding to the property’s modern Hawaiian charm, while the generous wrap-around lanai offers a variety of seating and dining options, with access from nearly every room, creating the perfect space for enjoying Kauai’s outdoor beauty.
Mauna Kai 5A couldn’t be more perfectly situated. The stunning Anini Beach is just a short 10-minute hike away down a shaded tree-lined path, making it easy to enjoy sun and surf. The property is also right next to the lush Makai Golf Course, where you can enjoy a morning walk along the scenic greenbelt, or take the path to the 1 Hotel at the far end of Princeville. The Westin Resort, just a 5-minute walk down Wyllie Road, provides convenient access to a Starbucks, a mini-mart, and upscale dining at Nanea Restaurant. For even more options, the Princeville Shopping Center, with a variety of boutiques, dining spots, and the Foodland grocery store, is just a 10-minute walk away. Be sure to check out Tiki Iniki for happy hour, and don’t miss the delicious shave ice (snow-capped is a must!). Every Saturday, you can also visit the Princeville Farmer’s Market for fresh local produce and unique island goods, before enjoying the free afternoon hula show at the Shopping Center!
If you’re in the mood for more exploring, the quaint town of Hanalei is just a 10-minute drive away, as are the stunning beaches of Hanalei Bay. For a deeper connection to Hawaiian culture, a visit to Limahuli Gardens (30 minutes by car) offers spectacular views and an educational experience on native plants and the island’s history. Looking to make your away around the entire island? Drive time to the East Side (where the airport is located) is roughly 50 minutes, and to the South Shore is about 75 minutes.
If relaxation is more your style, Mauna Kai offers fantastic amenities. The spacious pool area is equipped with plenty of sun loungers, gas grills, and a shaded cabana with outdoor dining tables – perfect for unwinding after a day of island exploration or enjoying a family BBQ. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or simply enjoy the beauty of Kauai, Mauna Kai 5A offers the ideal base for your vacation!
Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

As much as I love coming to Hawaii, there are some things you have to live with while enjoying this island. One are the roosters (especially on Kauai), two are the possibilities of seeing big bugs, and three, renting a lower level place where you will hear the neighbors. This place had all 3. I can deal with the roosters, seeing a roach was not ideal, but most importantly, the fact you hear every footstep from above was just almost too much to bear. If you are very hard of hearing, you may be the only individual that will be able to handle the sounds. Thankfully we were there only 3 nights but that was too long considering barely any sleep was had. The location was fantastic and the unit was very spacious for us four. But I want to help others by being as honest as possible, this is NOT a good place to stay if you want to relax or just sleep.

Very nice condo in beautiful area. Drawbacks: parking is VERY limited and if you are sensitive to noise probably not a good pick. You can hear every step they take upstairs.

The condo was really nice, including both interior features and decor and the beautiful landscaping surrounding the unit on all sides, providing plenty of privacy and fresh air. The unit is very close to the (steep) trail down to Wyllie Beach, but there is no ocean view. Property management was very responsive and easy to contact. It's very close to food and hardware stores. I definitely would recommend it to others. I wish a list of restaurant suggestions/recommendations had been provided.

We loved our stay here! The location was perfect ! Close to Foodland for delicious Poke, an ice cream shop and not to far from someGreat hikes. The condo was clean with super cozy beds & the swimming pool was great too. If you’re like me and go to bed earlier than most I do recommend ear plugs and a sleep mask. Noise wasn’t too bad except for there was one extra excited kiddo who was running laps upstairs he did settle down after our first night stay and we proceeded to get great sleep and rest for the remainder of our trip.

We had a wonderful stay. The townhouse had all appliances and beach gear we needed. The only 2 problems we had were the step down to the livingroom and master bedroom was about 10” and a tripping hazard for our older friend. The other was the noisy upstairs neighbors, they stomped around and scooted chairs alot

Loved the outdoor space and comfy beds. Plenty of room for the four of us. Definitely can hear every little noise from the people above which was unfortunate. The beach gear was nice to have and kitchen was well equipped.

The condo was spacious and well appointed. The only downside was that every step of the residents upstairs was audible.

This property was perfect for our needs. While we spent most of our time out and about, the condo had everything we needed to feel at home. It was also clean and comfortable. Loved the pool area!

The condo was very clean and super well stocked. I enjoyed the neighborhood and our proximity to all the places I had planned to take our small kids to.
There were some minor issues with the tv and fans, nothing major and the AC throughout was so great!

Awesome rental with good AC able to keep the whole unit nice and cool. Very well stocked kitchen and all the supplies for the beach. Lots of towels and having the washer dryer is great. The pool area is nice and the location is perfect. Would stay in this unit again if returned to the area.

We, as a family of three, had a great time there. The property is not too far into Princeville, which means less driving. Anini Beach is within walking distance.

We enjoyed the property. Air worked great. Lanai was very peaceful. Kitchen had everything we needed. Only negitive was you could hear every footstep the guest made in the unit above. We will stay here again on our next trip here.
