Family house near Hanalei with ocean views

Although this house is generally nice and we had a good stay, it is clear it is not being kept up as the owners try to sell it. The air conditioning was not working in the upstairs master bedroom and hadn't for a while. A note over the control said not to use it during our stay. There is black mold on the carpet below that air conditioner. Some windows have messages by them not to open the windows and heavy rains during our stay made cross ventilation impossible resulting in hot a bedroom for sleeping. Air conditioning also didn't work consistently in the outside garden room. Televisions throughout the house did not work during our stay. The refrigerator leaked water onto the floor.

The house was truly spectacular - setting and style were gorgeous. And the house was also extremely well laid out, livable, practical for our group of 10.Princeville is really lovely, too - and we loved the albatrosses!

Kitchen was fantastic. Everything we needed. Laundry was excellent.

The house was stocked with lots of extras, including everything you need for a day at the beach. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook for our big group. Having more than one washer/dryer was a nice surprise. The best part is the amazing view from the deck.

Absolutely loved the neighborhood and the location. The beaches were not crowded, and the snorkeling was great just a few feet off shore. The hot tub was a plus after each days activities and views from any window captures the beauty of of the north side of the Island.

We loved it with one exception. We found out the day we moved in that the Hot Tub was inoperable. It didn’t work for 1/2 the week.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The outside sliding door next to the dinning table was not functional, needs work. The coffee makers were not functional, was replaced by management but were too small. Overall very satisfied and handled our twelve people perfectly.

We would have rated this property a 5 star, but on the day of our travel to Kauai (from Chicago) we were informed that the main level air conditioning was inoperative. On the main level is 3 of the bedrooms and the main congregation area of the house. We were hoping for accommodations such as portable air conditioning units or extra fans, but unfortunately they were not provided. Although there were a couple of fans in the closet, one of the rooms was too warm at night that required the person staying in the room to relocate to the couch.We were also traveling with parents/grandparents who are in their mid 80s who do not navigate stairs very well. So it was a challenge for them to stay in the lower level which had air conditioning.Overall the house is in a beautiful location, lots of extras in the garage to take to the beach and bikes to ride as well.

Very spacious, comfortable, clean and well maintained to accomodate a large family providing privacy for all. We all loved the ocean and tropical views from the decking, patios, and from every room. Not to mention the ocean view from the deck, which also provided a barbeque that we so enjoyed, we basically spent most of our time there. Kitchen was spacious for our family since we all love to prepare meals together. Plenty of amenities provided to prepare meals. Large dining room table commodated our family meals as well.There were many supplies provided in the home. With plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas and towels to go enjoy a trip to the neighboring beaches. Beaches are close and we were able to take a hike to Turtle Cave, great experience. Very close drive to beautiful Hanalei Bay and several other nearby beaches. Not a far drive to the 4 excursions we had planned The location was perfect for us. Hiking trails are not far which we all enjoyed including the bike rides. Shopping and food locations are very close as well.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was very nice. As I went through it on arrival I found several areas dirty. For example, the light switch above the stove was extremely greasy, areas of the wood floor was dirty.It almost looked like someone went in and did a bunch of quick patch work on the walls knowing that renters were coming in. The bedrooms were large and spacious. Very nice kitchen and living area. I will give the house four stars.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ours was a last-minute vacation to Hawaii (Kauai) instead of Orlando (Hurrican Milton). Literally, last-minute for 11 people (the day before) and it was WONDERUL! Mauna Pua (this home) has a breathtaking view, you can her the ocean, it was super clean, conveniently located to several beaches, super comfortable, convenient to the grocery store, and came with everything we could have dreamed of--bicycles, snorkel gear, beach towels, boogie boards, etc. EVERYTHING! I would highly recommend this home, these hosts (extremely helpful), this location, and the whole shebang to EVERYONE. I may sound too enthusiastic, but really, I'm holding back. I don't want this lovely rental to be snatched up before I can get us all back here again.

We enjoyed the house and all of Kauai.
