Great Condo & Location

We enjoyed the condo and its location in Princeville. It was very spacious and perfect for our party of 4. We like to cook and enjoyed its large kitchen, which was well equipped with everything we needed. It felt very homey and we enjoyed its furnishings and Hawaiian-style art pictures throughout the house. We loved the large lanai that wrapped around the condo, surrounded by the tropical foliage. The property has a beautiful swimming pool with perfect temperature water and a new BBQ that we used a lot. Just know that the condo does have some stairs inside for "sunken" rooms, if there are any mobility issues. Our party decided we would definitely stay here again!

Spacious property in a great location

The condo was so spacious and that was so nice for four of us. It was an easy walk to shops and to a nearby resort, which had a coffee shop and restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back again. The owner was easy to reach and very helpful when it came to recommendations.

Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy

Just stay here. A lot of room for a small family.Better than being cramped in a hotel room, with Roblox and you tube bouncing off the walls. The best part is the condo is haunted it was an extra treat to see a ghost on our vacation as my gf loves anything ghostly. Just in case you were wondering, I am just being a dad!

Princeville Prize

The pictures are accurate, and the place was immaculate. It's on the second floor of a two-story building, a short walk from the parking lot. The floor-to-ceiling windows enhance the living space, and the wrap-around lanai ensures easy access to the outdoors. Both bathrooms have been modernized, and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked, making home cooked meals easy. The grounds are lush and well-maintained, and the pool is a short walk. We would be happy to return.

Mauna Kai August Vacation

We had a wonderful week at Sarah’s place at Mauna Kai. The big lanai was lovely in the mornings and evenings for coffee and light snacks. Sarah provided tons of beach equipment and the property was close to a grocery store and kids park for our almost 2 year old toddler.

Just what the doctor ordered!

The condo is well located in Princeville—with convenient food shopping within walking distance and good restaurants nearby in Hanalei (about a 5 minute drive), including great coffee, poke, and shaved ice. Terrific beaches, snorkeling, kayaking, paddling all close by the condo too—we loved Anini beach especially for snorkeling, seeing lots of sea turtles. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked—and the porch is lovely in the early morning and evenings. Lots of roosters around—they tend to be on their own time clock—so they will sometimes wake you at 3 am—and that will be the case anywhere you stay in Kauai—just be aware! The back of the condo is close to a road—so there were some traffic noises—but nothing later than 10 pm and none in our party found that it interfered with our use or enjoyment of the condo. The grounds of the condo are beautifully landscaped, and the pool is often empty—and lovely in the late afternoon. I would not rely on the snorkeling equipment provided by the host—you really need to be fitted—snorkeling equipment is inexpensive to rent lots of places. The host’s beach chairs were great—as were all the beach towels provided. The washer/dryer was super helpful! The host was responsive and helpful—we were not the most organized of guests, unfortunately. I would stay at these accommodations again—no concerns.

Beautiful location - attention to detail needed

The location of this property was great and the property itself is beautiful, but there were so many issues worth noting. Since there were 3 women travelers we needed the third bed, which was a pull out couch. The mattress was filthy and no linens were provided. The lock to the sliding back door was broken creating a safety concern. All of the floors are hard ceramic tile and there are steps everywhere, for example a step as you go into the bathroom. Two of us fell. The dining room light and fan didn’t work. The internet was unusually slow and one of the three of us needed to check in on work.
