Comments: I absolutely enjoyed the 2 bedroom unit I stayed at in Sandpiper. It was large, well layed out, very comfortable, had several large fans, and was very clean - no bugs at all. The lanai is large. It was one of my favorite units I stayed at during my month long trip to Kauai. Karl was very kind and easy to book with. I would definitely stay here again on future visits - Thank you Karl!

My husband and I absolutely loved your studio! It was clean and had everything we needed. The location was also ideal, as we loved exploring the different sites on the North shore of Kaua'i. The grounds and pool were also beautiful. Thanks so much! We would love to stay there again!

Aloha Karl!And Mahalo for making our most recent trip to the island possible. Like everyone else in this economy we were worried that we might not be able to take our usual trip. But your very reasonable rates changed that. The Studio was just what we needed! A nice launching pad for our tromps around the most beautiful place on Earth! Everything that we needed was there. We really enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and BBQ area. I have to give a shout out to our friends at Hanalei Pizza. Best pizza in Kauai, and the most friendly people you could meet. We miss the island and everyone already! Take care, may God bless, and we hope to be back soon!

We had a perfect time in the studio. It fit our needs just fine. Cozy place. It is nicely located with easy access to the beaches on the north side, and just a 5-10 minute trip to Hanalei.

We absolutely enjoyed staying at Sandpiper 234. A great accommodation for a family with small children and the on-site amenities are superb--a reason why we keep coming back.

Sandpiper 234 is a place to stay in Kauai. We are a repeat guests and have found the condo very accommodating. It is also comforting to know that Karl lives on the island and nearby.

We have been coming back to Kauai to stay at the Sandpiper 234 studio for the past six years of vacation and always look forward to our return! The studio is in a great location and is perfect for a couple looking for comfortable and nicely decorated accomodations. Karl, the owner has been great to book with.

My son and I spent 8 nights in the two bedroom unit (234A) and enjoyed every minute spent at the condo; it's very comfortable and feels like home away from home. Looking forward to visiting Kauai and staying here again in the future!

This is possibly the best value in the Princeville area. We used both A & B units to form a 3 bedroom condo for our extended family of 4 adults and 2 children. The area is quiet, well maintained, and close to all of North Kauai's best snorkeling beaches (Tunnels, Ke'e, Hideaways, Princeville)

The place was great. The house was very nice and clean and lots of room for everyone. I even slept on the fold out couch and I slept great!! The pool was nice, the hot tub was hot and the kids had a lot of fun, and we had a BBQ 2 nights. I would recommend anyone to stay here. If I come back to Kauai I will definitely stay here again. I hope you will have a fun time like my family and I did. Mahalo

We had an amazing time. The only thing I would do to help out the renters is to keep a "COMMENT NOTEBOOK" in the condo for each person to fill out. I think we could have given some great ideas to the next person in terms of trips we took, helpful hints, inexpensive restaurants etc.... It would have been nice to read what other people wrote and use their insight to help us on our visit there. Other than that, it was GREAT!!

Hi Karl, We returned to NJ just six days ago. Our trip to Big Island was very interesting: volcanic eruption, Astronomic Observatory... But we miss Kauai, its beauty, its beaches and mountain veiws. We want to go back as soon as possible and stay again in your studio. The appartment is very clean, cosi, comfortable, and very well equipped. It is close to beautiful beaches (I recommend Anini beach for your future tenants!)as well as to supermarket to fill in a huge refrigerator. Thank you, Karl, and keep in touch, Natasha and Victor.

We met quite a few neighbors that live in the complex full time and they were all very friendly. We would definately plan to stay with you again on a future visit. Mahalo

We had a wonderful time. The Studio was great. Having a full sized refrigerator made it wonderful. Pick up a little cooler and you are set for any day trip. We put 700 miles on the rental car in 7 days. There is so much to see and do. Use the guidebook in the room to plan your trips.

Hi Forer family, your studio is all the two of us needed with the fridge and microwave and coffee pot. It was the right size and the right price for sleeping and showering. I am afraid you have lost your view to the new building going on behind you, but we would stay there again just the same. Thanks for opening your doors to us and making our trip affordable!

The Sandpiper Studio is in a great location in the Princville Community on the North Shore. We truly enjoyed our stay. The Hawaiian decor and comfortable and clean accomadations made us feel "at home" while enjoying Kauai. The Sandpiper Studio was a perfect retreat and we highly recommend staying there.

A small but great and clean place in exclusive princeville community. Great for a couple who wants to explore the north shore, only minutes to hannelai bay and beyond. Great community pool/hottub with bbq, but cook early because the common area does close at 9pm.
