For me, being able to walk to a store or to a restaurant is always a huge plus and this location is in easy walking distance of Princeville Center.
As a family with 6 adults and two cars I was concerned about the one parking space issue and the pre-arrival messages about where not to park and warnings about being towed. It was recommended that we park our second car at Princeville Center. However, when we arrived there were actually two parking passes waiting for us (a mistake? Maybe). Fortunately we had no issues parking the two cars at the residential location, but based on my observations and experience, I would have been totally comfortable parking our second car at Princeville Center.
We tried to modify our booking. Vacasa told me to file a travel insurance claim, which was nonsense, I was within the modification window. Communication with them was "canned" and felt like a bot. In the end, they claim I never "confirmed" the change even though I requested it twice. I paid for time that the condo sat empty, and Vacasa could not have cared less. I will never book with Vacasa again.The place was amazing, but when you are renting a vacation property, the property manager is part of the experience.
Nice condo lots of space.
The home was very clean and it was clear that cleaning is thorough. Well appointed kitchen, every appliance, tool, storage, dish, etc that we needed was there. The beds were very comfortable, and there was plenty of seating in the dining and living rooms. And so many hooks (and dressers, closet hangers) all over the home for hanging stuff- I often find that rentals lack this, and especially for a neach vacation (and a lot of wet stuff), that was so appreciated! It's a very short walk/hike to Anini Beach, and other public beaches are within a 10-20 minute drive. We also used the pool in the complex several times, it was great. There's a grill in the pool area, which we also used a few times.
The location of this property was excellent. The unit was stocked with necessities such as dishwasher and washing machine pods. The kitchen had plenty of pots and pans, dishes and dinnerware for our party of eight. The only thing that was missing were beach umbrellas and a few beach chairs. There was one beach umbrella but the bottom piece was missing. All in all this is a fabulous place to spend your Kauai vacation.
Great location, access to shops and beaches, minor updates/fixes likely required to condo but nothing major.
This house was not cleaned in ages. There were rings around all the sinks and the bathtubs of built up dirt. The bed in the master bedroom was slanted which made it terribly uncomfortable to sleep on. the property was out of detergent so we had to buy our own only to waste our whole bottle washing their sheets because they had hair on them from previous guests indicating they also hadn't been washed. There is no AC just ceiling fans so it smells like old people when you walk in, and you suffocate from the heat. we contacted support to at least be reimbursed for the detergent we wasted cleaning their property but they weren't remotely helpful.
The unit was a great layout for our expanded family trip with three generations and the high ceiling over the main living area made it feel more expansive. The beach umbrella, boogie boards and cooler were great additions!
The place was a great location. Could walk to the park and princeville shops. Could quickly get to Hanalei and many of the north side beaches. Loved this place!
Honestly it was terrible. When you walk in it smells like old people. They said there was AC but it was just fans. The place was very dirty with rings around all the sinks showing just how little it was cleaned. Our sheets still had hair and dirt from other renters so we took them off to wash them and they didnt have any detergent. So we bought and wasted our own detergent to wash their sheets. One of the beds was also slanted which made it terribly uncomfortable to sleep on; they had to sleep sideways just to be able to tolerate it. We reached out about the cleanliness concerns and they told us they’d reach back out and possibly get a team out to clean it but it was basically crickets. Would not stay here again. Empty promises to fix our problems but nothing was done
A bit if wear and tear in the property no AC. Not a big deal if you visit in winter months. Great quiet location.
