About this property

Mauna Lanai Princeville Condo, 3BR/3BA, Central AC, Pool-View Lanai

Quiet Luxury in Princeville — Mauna Lanai

Welcome to Mauna Lanai, our personal island home in Princeville’s serene Nihilani community. This spacious 3BR / 3BA retreat is where we come to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the simple rhythms of North Shore living. Thoughtfully designed for comfort and ease, it’s a place where mornings are unhurried, evenings are peaceful, and time together feels effortless.

The home offers single-level interior living, all on one floor, while being located on the second level and accessed via a private exterior flight of stairs. Inside, everything flows comfortably—ideal for families, couples, and longer stays. Set within a quiet residential resort setting, a car is recommended for exploring nearby beaches, scenic trails, and the surrounding coastline. Hanalei Bay is just a short drive away.

Why We Love This Home — Mauna Lanai

When we’re home on island, mornings often begin on the lanai with coffee, watching birds visit the patio railings and nearby greenery. The name Mauna Lanai reflects what we love most about this home—a sense of elevation, openness, and connection to the outdoors that feels calm and grounding. The single-level interior layout keeps everything feeling easy and connected, creating a comfortable, open space that’s effortless to settle into.

We love the natural flow between indoors and out. After a day at the beach or exploring nearby trails, evenings slow down naturally—cocktails on the queen bedroom lanai with pool and mountain views, family dinners shared around the table or on the lanai, and quiet time together as the day winds down. It’s a gentle, unhurried rhythm that feels restorative, comfortable, and distinctly North Shore.


Bright, Spacious & Effortless Single-Level Living at Mauna Lanai

The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas create a bright, welcoming space that works beautifully for families, couples, and longer stays. Mauna Lanai reflects the way this home lives—open, elevated, and thoughtfully connected—where the single-level interior layout allows everyone to move comfortably and easily without interior stairs.

Large sliding doors open to the main lanai, extending the living space outdoors and reinforcing the home’s seamless indoor–outdoor flow. A dedicated workspace with desk and seating is available for remote work or planning daily adventures. Central air conditioning is included and complemented by ceiling fans, providing quiet, consistent comfort throughout the home.

We had a great experience here. The owner, Dhivya, was very responsive and helpful. The condo was well furnished, especially the kitchen, which is a plus for us as we do a lot of our own cooking. We had six adults in our group and everyone was very happy with our experience there.

Family holiday

Phenomenal property! One of the best we have experienced! We really appreciated how things were labeled clearly so that we could immediately move in and start to enjoy the space. Beautiful pool and kind neighbors, located not far from stores, dining, beaches. Plenty of space. Note the closest beach is a short but moderately strenuous hike from the property. Although we did not need to use it, AC is additional charge.

Great property! Everything we needed for our vacation.

Home was as described and included a lot of amenities (beach chairs, umbrella, beach toys, bikes). Plenty of room for our group to spread out and have some privacy. Didn’t need AC since 2nd floor gets nice breeze and the house has many fans. Pool is smaller than it looks in pictures but it’s steps away from the house. Nearest beach can be a tricky walk to access so make sure you’re prepared to climb down some rocks. (We preferred other nearby beaches that were more accessible We’d stay here again

We enjoyed our stay very much. The condo is well equipped with plenty of seating, comfy beds and a well stocked kitchen. We cooked almost all meals at home even though there are plenty of good restaurants nearby. We chose the location to be able to explore the north part of the island without driving too much. The pool is very nice and right across the street.

About the host

Hosted by Dhivya

Host profile image
Aloha! We’re Karthik and Dhivya—avid travelers who have explored countless destinations around the world, yet Princeville is the one place that truly captured our hearts. While we live among the majestic Rocky Mountains in Colorado, our home on Kauai is where we come to slow down and reconnect with the rhythm of the ocean.

This is our personal residence, thoughtfully curated with a blend of classic and contemporary design to create a refined island sanctuary. We spend several months here each year and take great pride in maintaining a calm, elegant space that reflects the natural beauty of the North Shore. We’re delighted to share our home with guests who value comfort, quiet luxury, and a truly restorative island experience.

Why they chose this property

We chose Kauai for its unmatched natural beauty, ocean energy, and relaxed pace of life. While the island is stunning throughout, our hearts were set on the North Shore for its unique climate and the incredible variety of experiences it offers—from hiking and kayaking to snorkeling, surfing, and scenic coastal walks.

Nihilani in Princeville was an easy choice. As one of the newer communities on the North Shore, it offers modern design, open layouts, and a true townhome feel that lives more like a private residence than a resort unit. The attached two-car garage and spacious floor plan were essential to us, especially for longer, restorative stays.

The resort amenities are exceptional. The pool, spa, and BBQ areas are beautifully designed and meticulously maintained. Because Nihilani is a boutique-sized community, it remains remarkably quiet and peaceful throughout.

Princeville itself is ideal for an active yet relaxed lifestyle. The walking and bike paths are extensive, beautifully landscaped, and perfect for daily strolls. From our home, you’re a short walk to local dining, world-class golf, Queen’s Bath, and Hideaways Beach. We also enjoy being close to the Westin and 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay—both wonderful spots for sunset cocktails.

Our townhome is ideally positioned within the community: just a minute’s walk to the pool and spa, yet far enough to preserve a sense of tranquility. Thanks to its unique location, the primary suite lanai enjoys glimpses of the Pacific horizon, while the second bedroom lanai offers serene mountain views—the thoughtful details that made this home feel truly special to us.

What makes this property unique

Our residence is distinguished by its pristine, like-new condition, understated elegance, and exceptional setting within the Nihilani community. Built in 2015 and meticulously maintained, the home reflects the quality and comfort of a well-cared-for primary residence rather than a typical vacation rental.

As our personal second home, every element has been curated with intentional simplicity and livability in mind—balancing quiet refinement with family-friendly comfort. The bi-level layout provides natural separation between social and private spaces, while subtle, thoughtful details ensure the home feels welcoming for couples, families, and multigenerational stays alike.

Located on the most tranquil side of the community, away from road noise and foot traffic, the home offers a rare sense of calm. At the same time, it remains just a short, easy walk from Nihilani’s beautifully maintained pool, spa, and BBQ areas. From the private lanais, guests enjoy soft horizon glimpses of the Pacific and serene views of the surrounding mountains, framed by lush tropical landscaping.

We are attentive, discreet hosts who take great pride in preserving the home’s condition and atmosphere. We are pleased to welcome guests who appreciate privacy, comfort, and a quietly luxurious North Shore experience—and who treat our home with the same care and respect with which it is offered.
