Spacious, Comfortable with Full Kitchen & W/D

This place is gorgeous and PERFECT for a couple! I’ve never stayed in a loft situation before but it didn’t matter. I didn’t take any pics because it’s identical to the posting. It was immaculate and had amenities including a stocked bathroom and kitchen with lots of spices, cookware, Tupperware, ice, even beach chairs. Place is super close to a grocery store and 10 min drive to the main town on the north shore Hanalei. The owner was also quick to respond to any questions. I would absolutely stay here again and wish I could have for the remainder of my trip. Next place was a huge downgrade.Thank you, Rick! We had a blast at your beautiful place. Highly recommend!

A very thoughtfully put together place for comfort! Everything that we would need for a long vacation was readily available, from beach chairs to coolers to washers, dryers and cleaning supplies. The guidebook was clear and helpful. Overall clean and comfy room. We enjoyed it very much!

We loved our stay! The location is beautiful with convenient walking access to anini beach and the shops in princeville. The drive to hanalei is short and convenient as well! The kitchen has everything you might possibly need. The spot also comes with tons of beach gear which was so helpful. Truly such a gem of a spot!

Cute little place nestled in the middle of Princeville! We loved reading on the porch and walking around the area. The path to the beach is very convenient.

Great location! Everything necessary for a fun stay was already waiting for us. Thank you for being such a thoughtful host.

Very responsive host, even arranged for our last minute request for early arrival. The bed was very comfortable and made for easy sleeping. There was a little road noise from the windows above the bed, but closing the louvered windows completely solved the issue, and there was still plenty of airflow from the other windows and fans. The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking all of our meals, and we loved the thoughtful extras in the cabinets like spices, sugar, and coffee. The space was very thoughtfully equipped,even a yoga mat was provided, which was a lovely touch. The landscaping and tropical plants on the lanai and around the property were beautiful, with great natural light throughout. The location was excellent, close to several beaches within walking and short driving distance, and a grocery store nearby. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

great space - prime location. the view from the street is nuts

This was a great vacation rental. Might be one of the best stocked vacation rental kitchens I've ever seen! Plenty of pot/pans, bowls, gadgets, spices and... tupperware! lol. So nice to have a way to save left overs, freshly cut fruit; and there's a small cooler available and ice packs in the freezer so we could pack snacks/lunches while we were driving around the island. Small things that were super helpful to have.Bathroom was clean and spacious with good water pressure. The bed was comfortable. It's on the softer side, which was fine for us - I only mention it for those who are more particular about mattress firmness. Washer and Dryer were clean and worked great (laundry soap was provided). So nice to wash clothes after a couple days hiking (esp after getting caught in a downpour!)We were there in January so it was warm but not hot and not too humid. I opened the louvered windows when we left each morning and the temp was comfortable when we returned each evening. There is a ceiling fan and several smaller fans but we only used a fan on a couple evenings. It's a ground floor unit but was quiet. Occasionally we could hear folks above us but it was very subtle. I had a question about check out, texted Rick and he got back to us right away. Oh and there's a good sized grocery store nearby.Traveler alert: vandals are cutting gas lines to steal gas all over the island. Jeeps are targeted so consider renting a vehicle that's less of a tourist target

Everything was absolutely perfect. We loved the place and will definitely be back next time we're in Kauai. Rick has really thought of everything here. Made our trip so much easier and fun. This was our 2nd trip to Kauai; the first time we stayed at a resort in Kapa'a which was fine, but staying here was a whole different and much greater experience. Thanks for everything Rick!

Rick was a great host! Communication was quick and easy, and the place was clean and in a good location. We enjoyed staying here and would stay here again.

Very enjoyable stay. The unit was just as it appears on VRBO and well stocked. Parking and everything else was easy. Thanks so much!

Great

This was an amazing place. Clean, neat and Quiet and very accommodating in all sorts.

Very convenient location. Having a full kitchen and laundry made things that much easier.

The condo was clean, spacious and stocked with everything you could possibly need. The location was ideal for exploring the north shore.

We loved staying here. The home was exactly as described and shown and is very well kept. The beach chairs, umbrella, and snorkel gear provided made our trip even better!

This place was absolutely wonderful! It was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The area was very nice and quiet. We enjoyed drinking our coffee every mornong on the back lanai. There is a small shopping center nearby that has a grocery store, several options for restaurants and nightly love music. It was also is also a quick drive to Hanalei. It was just a truly wonderful place to stay for our visit to Kauai!

This was such a nice, clean and comfortable place to stay. Well stocked; everything you might need! Good directions and helpful information of the area. The back deck is just beautiful. Pool is refreshing. Walking distance to serene beach area with amazing views!!

Place was perfect for us! Really enjoyed the full kitchen amenities as it provided an opportunity for us to make some snacks and meals without having to find a place to eat out each meal. The additional amenities that were included were excellent; chairs for the beach, towels for the beach, fans for air movement while sleeping, and of course the included snorkeling gear. It was all wonderful!

We had a wonderful stay here! Very homey with a lovely back porch. We enjoyed the location and Anini beach was within walking distance (the hill down there is steep and it’s a decent walk though, just FYI). Rick provided lots of amenities and we especially appreciate the beach chairs, umbrella, and snorkeling gear.

Great property and location on the North Shore. It was clean and well kept. We would stay there again. Thanks!

Good location, great experience. Close to Tunnels Beach, Anini beach, Hanalei and walking distance to the local food market. Highly recommend this rental.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It’s stocked with everything needed including all the beach gear and added touches like Kleenex, paper towels, napkins, soaps, basic spices, condiments and even distilled water for the iron or CPAP machine. The condo lives much larger than a typical studio and the full size kitchen was wonderful. The patio offers a peaceful setting amongst the lush landscape. The owner was very responsive during our stay and he has provided so many amenities to make your stay comfortable. The location is ideal for the Princeville area and we would definitely return to this property when visiting Kauai again.

This little getaway place was fantastic! One of the best stocked VRBO‘s that we have ever stayed in. Usually, we have to go and purchase utensils and other supplies - at this place, that was not the case. The unit was very clean, well taken care of and we felt safe in this location. We’d pick this place again.

Our stay was excellent and we enjoyed every bit! The apartment was bright, clean and equipped with everything you need to make your stay as smooth as possible. We would definitely stay here again! The location is also fantastic.

Great place, quick response from owner on a question. Provided everything we needed for a beach vacation! Would recommend highly.

The pictures of this place don’t do it justice — it was perfect for us to stay at as a couple! If you want to explore the north shore, this is your best bet. We loved being close to Hanalei and visited Ha’ena State Park, and we also did some activities in Wailua —easy drive. We loved the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, and snorkel gear - they really made our trip with all of our beach exploring. There is also a copy of a Kauai Guidebook that was GOLD - great info and recommendations. I would stay here again, it was lovely.

This studio was/is perfect for 1/2 people. The photos on line did not do it justice. It had everything you would need and then some. The bed/furniture were comfortable and the most beautiful beaches were a short walk/drive away. I have price shop the rentals for years and the cost for this studio was very reasonable. The only problem I had was with the lock box-only because I went to the wrong box-I even had my glasses on-contacted the the designated person-very helpful-even had a follow up visit by a very nice lady to ensure I was good to go. The only draw back I initially had was when I read the”rules& regulations” then I read some of the ratings starting with the lowest and moving on up. The good HEAVILY overshadowed the bad. The “rules & regulations” were reasonable it just needed to be “toned” down. Would I stay here again..that’s a BIG YES.

Exactly like the listing. It was very nice. Upstairs neighbors have heavy feet and the one of the snorkels has a broken diagram. But other than that it was a good experience. Very happy we got to stay and it was very affordable. Thanks Rick, for sharing your home!

My husband and I stayed at this property in a larger condo complex after backpacking the Napali coast for three nights. It was a perfect respite and retreat! The host has the condo fully stocked with anything you could want or need: a fully stocked kitchen, nice granite countertops, pantry staples and then some. We prepared our own food in the kitchen almost every night. There is a washer and dryer with soap included, castile soap which is perfect for removing zinc oxide (reef safe) sunscreen, full-sized shampoo, conditioner and liquid soap in the shower, a shaded porch with patio chairs, games, puzzles, bluetooth speaker, etc, etc. Also beach chairs, beach towels, snorkel gear. Wow! This unit far exceeded our expectations. The location is great, close to a walking path that takes you to a grocery store, shops and restaurants, and is also quiet. It is a lower-level unit with a unit above and beside, but we had no issues with noise from either units. While staying there, we did not utilize the pool, so we cannot comment on that. The decor is a bit dated, and perhaps overdone a bit, but it is very Hawaiian, colorful and cheerful. My only minor recommendation is that a tea pot (for steeping tea) be added to the kitchen. We would absolutely stay here again if we were to return to Kaua'i.

Very nice condo with all we needed for our stay in Princeville. Loved having the windows open at night to catch the evening breeze. Walking distance to several restaurants, market and Anini Beach. Nice home base to do all the activities on the North Shore.

The unit is exactly as shown in the listing. Very spacious for two adults, in a convenient location for exploring Kauai's north shore. The modern kitchen is very well equipped. Beach and snorkeling gear were provided along with a very helpful guide to area beaches and trails. No AC but fans and good cross ventilation kept us comfortable. Contact with owner was easy. Will stay here again!

Our stay at Rick’s place was a real treat, exceeding our expectation. Very well furnished, even providing a cooler that kept our lunch cool for our daily trips around the island (also chairs, umbrella, snorkeling stuff). Communication with our host was responsive and thoughtful. Nice quiet location with porch overlooking golf course and walking path. He even provided Dr. Bronner’s soap for the shower (you have to be a Dr. B fan to get that!)Thank you, Rick!

Rick is an incredible host and exceeded any communication expectations. Because of a glitch in VRBO’s system, we were not able to stay at his property when we initially anticipated, however because of this glitch Rick went above and beyond to make our experience with him the best it could be. Thank you Rick!

Perfectly situated in a quiet area surrounded by tropical plants and scenery. Fully stocked with any you may need. Had i read to the back of the welcome binder i would have known there was also snorkeling gear.Thank you Rick!

The condo was exactly as represented and was a very pleasant experience.

I’ve stayed here twice now, it’s clean, I feel safe, the bed is comfortable & the kitchen fully equipped. I will continue to return. Mahalo

Perfect for two people

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated some of the recommendations of places to see and things to do. The unit was very well stocked, and we could not think of anything that we could suggest improving the accommodations. We appreciated the quick communication with the owner and was very happy with accommodations.

Lovely property/extremely well maintained. Clean and well equipped. Nicely maintained grounds and pool. Condo is close to a food market, restaurants, ect. Its a four min drive/or a leisurely path walk to the beach. Who could ask for more?

We had a wonderful stay in Princeville. Neighbors were very friendly and the spot was quiet except for a few roosters screaming morning announcements. The rental was very well equipped and clean. We appreciated the clear instructions, laundry option and beach gear. No AC but adequate ventilation and fans to make everything comfortable. Bed was nice and the porch offered a beautiful peaceful morning nook with a little view onto the golf course. Still felt private. Some noise from upstairs neighbors but nothing distracting or during odd hours.

Loved the condo and location. Will be back soon

My wife Nikki and I stayed at this property for a week and loved the setup of the place. The owner was very responsive to questions and very friendly. Air conditioning was the only thing I feel would make the stay even more enjoyable, but it is understandable due to the high coat of electricity in Kauai. Would recommend 100%!

Absolutely loved where I stayed for my week visit. The place was quiet and cozy. Host was accommodating and it was easy to follow directions/instructions for my visit. I loved the neighborhood and how close it was to my favorite north shore beaches. Pe

Hawaiian vibe to this clean, neat place. It had everything that we needed to enjoy our stay on our favorite island of Kauai!

Great little place to spend our trip! Clean, smooth and easy process, and good location.

Rick has done a great job setting up a beautiful stay. We had everything we needed. We took the trail (starting close to the back porch) which leads all the way down to Wylie/Annini beach a few times. It's a bit of a hill but it's a very nice shaded walk with beautiful trees along the way. Some people have mentioned about the hot water in the shower running out...that is to be expected, just don't take VERY long showers and space them out as a couple and you'll be fine. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the mornings...it's very pleasant.
