About this property
Spacious Home Great for Large Groups - Walk to Beaches/Groceries/Shopping
Puamana 9C is a roomy and comfortable retreat with easy walking access to the heart of Princeville! Your home base has two bedrooms, a living and dining area with lovely high ceilings, a fully appointed open concept kitchen, and three private lanais. From the second floor lanai you can take in views of the lush grounds and the ocean in the background! The ground floor bedroom is also air conditioned, a real luxury on Kauai.
Situated perfectly for you to have quick walking access to all that Princeville has to offer, Puamana 9C is a fabulous jumping off point for your island adventures. Anini Beach, home to Hawaii's longest coral reef and perfect for swimming and snorkeling, is just a brief 8 minute hike away on a shady path. The Princeville Shopping Center is just 15 minutes away on foot, and has a Foodland grocery store and all the shopping and dining options you could want! You can also visit the farmer's market every Saturday morning, and grab a bite before enjoying the free Saturday afternoon hula show. The Westin Resort is even closer, only 2 minutes walking, and offers access to a Starbucks, grab and go minimart, and upscale dining at the Nanea restaurant (head over for happy hour deals from 3-5!). For even more retail therapy and dining options, the picturesque island town of Hanalei is a 10 minute drive away, as are the iconic beaches of Hanalei Bay. For a quieter experience away from the crowds we recommend checking out the Kilauea Point Lighthouse and beautiful nature preserve just a short drive away.
If running around on vacation isn't your style, the Puamana grounds have all you need for a slow-paced, relaxing retreat. Spend the day lounging by the pool with a drink (no glass by the pool please), go for an evening stroll along the golf course greenbelt, and take in the sunset over the water from the second floor lanai. Whether you're staying in or going out, there's something for everyone here!
For those looking to get around the island, drive time to the East Side (where the airport is) is about 55 minutes, and to the South Shore is roughly 75 minutes.
This is a two-story home. To access the second floor bedroom and lanai you must be able to go up and down one flight of stairs.
This unit is partially air conditioned, in the downstairs bedroom only. There are plenty of fans and screen doors on all the lanais to help with airflow in the rest of the house.
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.
Note: host requires all guests, whether they book directly or via a third party website, to complete a rental agreement within 3 days of booking.

My family and I were pleased with our stay. There’s 4 adults, 9 and 13 year old grandkids that stayed here. Plenty of room, comfortable beds, 2 full bathrooms, items for the beach, good kitchen items to use. The place was clean and in a nice area. It’s perfect for a family. The pool was small, but the kids enjoyed it. The only thing it’s missing is it being on a beach front, but for the prices wanted for beach front places, this is very well priced for all you get. The beach was near by, grocery stores, a few shops, and restaurants close by. Princeville is a beautiful area and other parts of the island are not that far of a drive away. Glad we stayed here
Great house! Very comfortable for our family of five. The kitchen was decently equipped and it was nice to have a room with AC. BEAUTIFUL and safe community. We loved how close it was to Hanalei and Anini beach. We would definitely come back!

Let's start with the positive. Quaint little place. Family of 5 stayed with room to spare. At first glance, things seemed really nice. Decent location to shops and northern areas to explore. For newcomers, maybe printing something off about location of grocery stores and area beaches and things to do would be helpful. Now for the negative- first walk-through, the place smelled musty and unused. Several stains on outdated and older carpet greeted us. I made to sure to document what I could as soon as possible. Master bedroom blinds across sliding glass door were broke. The entire one side of the track wasn't even attached. So we were careful when opening or closing. Outlet in bathroom didn't work and I ended up blow drying my hair in bedroom all week. I ended up documenting corners of bathroom and other public areas that were either stained or still dirty. Back slider door was half broken and not in the track properly. Washing machine had huge clump of other visitors hair and a child sock inside the seal. Several other outlets that didn't work throughout the condo. Designated smoking areas were not clear as I got yelled at by one old patron that made it clear there was no smoking anywhere. I told her to take it up with the rental company. Ceiling fan in dining area was squeaky enough and loud enough to be absolutely annoying, but it was listen to that or have no air circulation the entire time so we put up with it. All in all, not a bad little place, but not worth 2400.
Only one room had AC. I do think that ac should be moved to upstairs since heat rises. But besides that it was a great place!

This is a quiet and clean property with nice amenities. We are a family of four and everyone had plenty of space. It was a great home base to explore the North Shore beaches and sites.

Cozy home. Perfect for families.
We enjoyed our stay here. It was cozy and comfortable for a family of 4. Could have easily accommodated another person or two. Good location to sites on the north island. Close to shopping plaza with grocery store and restaurants, and an easy drive to Hanalei Bay.
Great place to stay. Very clean and very well equipped. the condo is very conveniently located for all north shore activities. It is very easy to reach Hanalei beach and to plan your hikes to the Napali coast. It is also very convenient to walk around Princeville and to its beaches. The community is very quiet and we used the barbecue non-stop during our stay.

Thanks for the review Marc. We hope you can come back soon to enjoy more time on the island! Mahalo!!
Great location for day trips all along the coast. Safe area and right across from the pool. Having the Foodland grocery store right up the street was super convenient. The accommodations need a bit of updating as it was pretty outdated and run down but it had all the creature comforts we needed. There have been lots of comments about the loft bedrooms not having AC but our kids were perfectly comfortable with the large fans they had pointed at each bed. We greatly appreciated the cooler, beach chairs, beach towels and snorkel gear made available to us.

Our stay was good. There were some discrepancies between the pictures and the listing but nothing that hindered the space from being used. The a/c in the master was nice as we are from AK and arent as accustomed to the heat. The response time was very quick and check in was easy.

Great property. Walkable to stores and Willey beach. Wifi was reliable. You could do remote work from here. Kitchen had everything we needed and the appliances were in good condition. The pool was a nice bonus. My only concern would be if you have young children because the kids bedroom is upstairs in an open loft.

We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and found everything you need! You are 100% correct about the upstairs loft making this property unsuitable for young children, we don't recommend it unless children are at least 5 years old. Older kids will love having such a large room and their own bathroom upstairs :-)

We loved how quiet this property is and how close it is to beaches and Hanalei on the North side of the island and pool. We didn't like how parking was difficult due to construction happening in the area and we were expecting forced air air conditioning, not a window unit in the downstairs room and air towers upstairs.

This unit was quite spacious for our family of 5! Had pretty much everything we needed. The electronic keypad was hard to see in the dark when we arrived so I kept trying to put the code into the lockbox to no avail. Kitchen is well equipped as well as plenty of towels for showering and the beach. Upstairs was too hot at night for our 15yo so he slept on the couch. Beach chairs were nice to have when we went to Hanalei. Grounds are beautiful!
