Our Oceanfront, Mountain and Sunset view is THE most famous on all of Kaua'i!!!

If you are looking for the most beautiful, romantic place in the world this may be it! This is one of the few Puu Poa condominium units with the iconic "Bali Hai" view. Our condo sits on the edge of a bluff, with full unobstructed white water ocean and mountain views that are too beautiful to believe.

The condo (# 311) faces due west, so spectacular sunsets over the Pacific Ocean are the norm. The condo itself is huge, over 1800 square feet of interior living space, with its own additional 22 foot by 18 foot outdoor lanai. There is also a huge enclosed sunroom that actually allows you to enjoy any tropical showers. It is custom decorated in a retro Hawaiian style with many original artist's touches, beautiful Italian tile and marble and granite throughout. There is more than ample furniture to relax and nap in different areas. The master bathroom has undergone a complete remodeling October 2005.

Puu Poa is THE premier luxury/view condo on the North Shore of Kauai, in Princeville. The Princeville Resort, one of Starwood's five star luxury hotel collection, is just yards from the condo and all their restaurants and their beach are available to our tenants. There is also a winding path to the unbelievably picturesque Hideaways Beach below our bluff, where possibly the finest coral reef for snorkling can be found.

The fabulous Makai Golf Course, which is 27 holes, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. is steps from the door. The famous Prince Golf Course, 18 holes, is minutes away. Tennis is available for free onsite.

Rent this spectacular luxury condo for the vacation of your dreams. You will not be disappointed!

  • As many others have already expressed, this is one of the best condos in all of Hawaii, especially Kauai. I've vacationed on 4 of the Hawaiian islands and stayed in many different vacation condos, but this one is my favorite by far. The vacation condo is located on the quiet north shore, right next to the Princeville resort. There are many public beaches, hidden beaches, snorkeling beaches, and beach parks all around the north shore area and this vacation condo. And if you are a golf fanatic, there are many different golf courses, and a couple within walking distance of the condo. My wife and I love to Hike and this vacation condo in Kauai is near many hiking trails and paths that lead you along the coast or into the mountains. If you enjoy water sports like snorkeling, surfing, swimming, kayaking, or simply sunbathing on the beach, this vacation condo is perfect for you...there is a nice snorkeling beach right below the condo and Hanalei bay is just a 5-10 minute drive up the highway. Another thing that I love about this vacation condo in Kauai is that it's near a grocery store and close to many great restaurants. You can do your own home cooking in your kitchen as you watch the sunset or you can drive to Hanalei and enjoy a great meal at one of the many restaurants. I've taken a vacation to Kauai during the past 3 years and have stayed in this condo each time. This past year, my wife and I decided to take our 8 month old baby to Kauai. This vacation condo was perfect for our family and felt like our home away from home. Our baby loved it as well...he crawled all over the place and even had his own bedroom. The quiet North Shore is so beautiful in the summer time. Watching the daily sunsets from the lanai or from the kitchen while you are cooking is amazing. My wife's mom and dad (the grandparents) also came to Kauai to vacation with us and they fell in love with the condo as well. We are hoping to make this our annual vacation spot! I can go on and on about this amazing vacation condo in Kauai. If you are planning to take a vacation to Hawaii or Kauai, you have to check out this vacation condo. You can visit their recently updated website to see photos and learn more about the condo...OR please feel free to contact me and I would love to give you all of my insights and recommendations.

  • We recently stayed in the condo and had a wonderful time. The view is magnificent and the North Shore has just the right balance of beauty and fun. We highly recommend this spot for an unforgettable vacation.

  • We enjoyed the condo immensely! It was the perfect way to enjoy all the North Shore has to offer in a luxurious setting. It was our first time in Kauai, and after touring around the rest of the island, I know our choice of the North Shore was also the right one. What a great community for walking and just enjoying the tropical beauty, and there was so much else to see just a short drive away (Hanalei, Na Pali coast, farmers markets etc.). We watched whales leaping and cavorting every day (thanks to the binoculars and the stunning ocean view from the lanai and sitting room). We enjoyed Hideaways Beach just below the condo, and snorkeling at the Princeville Resort (just a short walk away) on the calmer days. But a real bonus on the high surf days was sitting on the lanai and watching the extreme surfers being towed out to the 20-30 ft waves and having a go at those mountains of water. We also all got a real kick out of all of the chickens roaming free --- one of my favorite photos is of a chicken sitting at the top of a banana tree pecking away at the bananas --- you don't see that every day! I would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

  • We had an absolutely Wonderful time staying at the condo.We typically travel to Hawaii 1-2 times per year, and have experienced a number of different accomodations on different islands. Any vacation to the islands is a treat, but this condo made our experience stand out as truly remarkable. This is a luxury experience in every sense of the word. The view is absolutely fantastic, the condo is extremely comfortable and had everything we needed for a great vacation. The furnishings we found to be top rate, and coupled with the great views made for a perfectly relaxing vacation. As an added bonus, the location is a very nice and easy walk to great beaches and the Princeville Resort. I hope we can get back soon!!

  • We had not been to the Hawaiian Islands for some time and wanted to make sure the vacation was perfect. This condo made it so. The view and the amentities allowed us to entirely relax and live as we wanted. The North end location and proximity to great beaches made it ideal for coming and going and relaxing as we pleased. We looked forward to preparing great meals to enjoy at sunset - something that does not happen at home! Our elementary age sons loved the experience as well. We look forard to returning.

  • What a magical week Deborah and I spent in your condo through last year in February! It was so beautiful that we are returning for Christmas this year with eight friends. We have reserved Pu'u Poa # 311 for ourselves because it truly does have the best vantage point for sunsets and whale watching. Directly across from Bali Hai, and just a hop, skip and a jump from the restaurants in quaint Hanalei, it is situated perfectly. The hike to Hideaway Beach just below the condos is worth it, but even better is the adventure down the Napali coast, which winds around from the north shore of Kauai down along the west side of the island. Once inhabited by small people known as the Menehune, who reportedly dwelled in the cliff walls and caves, and slept beneath the stars twinkling above the ocean seascape in a peaceful song-filled valley wonderland… see for yourself!

  • Staying at the condo really made our vacation perfect. It was so nice to have everything we needed right there. I knew it was going to be nice to be able to cook our own meals and have a little more space than a hotel, but I completely underestimated how great it was going to be. The condo was beautiful, the view was beautiful, the location was perfect, the hospitality was GREAT!! I felt like I was home instead of a “tourist”, which made the vacation actually feel like a vacation. We had friends staying at a newly built resort in Wailua. It was also a privately owned condo, and while it was a nice, I wouldn’t have thought about trading. Everything about the Bali Hai condo was perfect – it’s kind of hard to explain in a paragraph. I’d also like to compliment how easy it was to deal with you and Lynn. Thank you for sharing your beautiful condo. I would recommend it to anyone and will stay again when I return to Kauai.

  • Where do I even begin? We have been traveling to Hawaii for the past 10 years and almost exclusively to the North Shore of Kauai for the past 6 years. There is just no other place on Earth. And what better way to celebrate all of the amazing things about the North Shore of Kauai then this fabulous condo! We used to stay at the Princeville Hotel next door, which is very lovely. We still go over for dinners and Sunday nights for the local dancers. But now... we have this fabulous condo that we can hardly wait to get back to! The view is better then anywhere else because of the unique area that the condo is located (directly facing Bali Hai) and this unit in particular has the absolute best view because if faces directly West. PLUS... all of the little things that the owners provide make me feel like this is our own private residence. It seriously couldn't be better and we cannot wait to return!

  • This is the fifth time we have been to Kauai and certainly not the last. We love the North shore and this condo is as good as it gets. With the beautiful surroundings and a perfectly located, well equipped place to stay, it just doesn't get any better. Hopefully the powers-that-be will keep Kauai , and more particularly, Hanalai, quiet, quaint and as beautiful as it is today. Truely a reccomended unit to enjoy while experiencing the beauty the island has to offer.
