Great Place to Tuck-in

I booked this condo as a spot for 4 nights between arriving in Hawaii and meeting in Oahu. Hadn’t stayed in Princeville before, and the weather was rainier than I had hoped, but unit was nice, well designed and laid out. WiFi was plenty strong for my work zooms.Owner was very helpful in advance and during my stay. Should you stay here? An unqualified YES!

Perfect location.

Everything was clean and comfortable.Our favorite thing was how quick we could get to so many amazing beaches and restaurants. That was exactly what we wanted. The place was not what we expected in terms of the layout. It’s a bit tight with lots of furniture and had an odd lay out. The kitchen is really best for making coffee and heating things up but we didn’t do any actual cooking which turned out to be a blessing in disguise since we got to eat out every meal! We loved the beach equipment available and used that everyday.

Perfect Princeville Location!

My boyfriend and I booked this stay after looking at several options. It was perfect! The pictures are cute but it is better in person. Lani was so helpful. Check in was easy, everything was clean, and we had no issues. The family downstairs was so welcoming. The path behind the property to the beach was really cool! I cannot recommend this property more!

About the host

Hosted by Kauai Seaside Properties

Host profile image
Aloha! I am Lani and I am passionate about sharing and passing on the love I have for my island Home of Kauai to those who visit this special place.

I’ve lived on Kauai for much of my life. I was born near Tunnels Beach and have always considered the North Shore of Kauai “home”. However, adventures beyond the islands, eventually brought me to the mainland and abroad. I went to school in Santa Cruz California and even got interested in colder climates for a while. Between travels abroad, I worked as an entrepreneur and in various outdoor industries for the better part of a decade, living in amazingly scenic, rural towns. One of my favorite of those towns was Jackson Hole Wyoming, where I lived for several years before moving back to Kauai. It took searching the world to ultimately realize, there’s no place like home.

I truly enjoy passing on the love and reverence I have of my island home to my guests. I offer my local knowledge and recommendations in addition to providing exceptional quality accommodation and service. I've even written an extensive Kauai Guide e-book that I provide exclusively to my guests. I want to ensure that my guests have as much fun and as little worries as possible on their visits to Kauai!

I love offering conscientious travelers an amazing home while they explore the Garden Island, and both my condos are thoughtfully equipped, well located and always kept clean and attended to with lots of love.

I am are honored to have received such great reviews and have maintained a consistent Primer Host title with VRBO for many years.

I am grateful for my guests, as they give to me just as much as I give them.

Happiest of travels and lots of Aloha to you!

Lani

Why they chose this property

Peaceful, Scenic & Close to Everything — the Perfect North Shore Location!

I chose this neighborhood because it truly offers the best of Kauai’s North Shore lifestyle — serene and natural surroundings, yet wonderfully convenient to beaches, dining, shopping, and adventures.

The Paniolo Condominium Complex is nestled in Princeville, a quiet resort community perched on a bluff with spectacular views of Hanalei Bay and the iconic “Bali Hai” ridge. The area is filled with lush walking trails and stunning mountain and ocean vistas — perfect for those who love to explore on foot or soak in the scenery.

One of the things I love most is that you can leave the car behind and easily access so much on foot. Within a 10-minute walk, you’ll find:
• Grocery store
• Cafés, restaurants & shops
• Post office, banks, yoga studios & local bus line

A 15-minute walk in the other direction takes you along a scenic path to Wyllie Beach (the west end of Anini Beach), known for great snorkeling and swimming (always check current conditions!).

Top North Shore beaches, Hanalei Bay, and famous snorkeling spots are all just a short drive away, as are Hanalei town and Kilauea (both 10–15 minutes). Hanalei Bay, in particular, is one of our favorite places to enjoy a day at the beach — whether walking along the sand, swimming, boogie boarding, or surfing.

Overall, this neighborhood combines peace, natural beauty, and convenience, making it an ideal home base for experiencing all that the North Shore of Kauai has to offer!

What makes this property unique

The Hala Hale is thoughtfully designed to feel like a true home away from home, with everything a guest might need to fully enjoy and explore the North Shore of Kauai. I want my visitors to be able to pack light and not worry about buying or renting gear when they arrive, so I’ve carefully equipped the condo with quality amenities and extras to make their stay easy and comfortable.

I take great pride in this space — it was my own home not long ago — and every detail reflects that care. The condo is filled with warmth, love, and happy memories, and I strive to extend that feeling to each and every guest.

Another feature that makes the Hala Hale special is its peaceful location within the Paniolo complex. Furthest from the road and adjacent to a lush greenbelt, it offers an atmosphere of relaxation with birdsongs and the rustle of trade winds through the trees by day, and crickets with the distant rhythm of ocean waves on Anini Reef at night.

This is the perfect home base to come back to relax after your Kauai explorations and adventures!
