Rainbows! Waterfalls! Hanalei Bay! Wrap Yourself in Views!

Our stay at the property was amazing. The house was beautifully designed and furnished. The views from the kitchen and the lanai were gorgeous, and we really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Probably the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had!

We were a total party of 8 (6 adults and 2 children). This was the third visit to Kauai for my wife and I, and our first time staying in Princeville. Overall this was a fantastic visit and a wonderful place to stay. Highly recommended!

I will address the reason for losing a star first, and it is due to the heat as others have mentioned. We have never had air conditioning in any of our previous Kauai trips, so I am well aware of the fact that few places on island have air conditioning. Typically the wind keeps residences cool, but this house was unbearably hot most afternoons during our stay. We had warm, sunny weather nearly every day which is not necessarily common for Princeville. But despite having shades shut to block the sun as much as possible, as well as vents open throughout the house, it was very challenging to be inside most afternoons. The house is advertised as having air conditioning in the master bedroom, which it does. This is why I felt comfortable renting this house and allowing my elderly parents to reside in the master bedroom. But the wall air conditioning unit was grossly underpowered and did nearly nothing to cool the room during the day. It helped cool the room down moderately at night, but only moderately. The other bedrooms were cool enough at night with the vents and fan blowing. If you plan to be outside most of the afternoons, you need not worry about the temperatures here. But if the weather is warm and sunny, do not expect the interior of the house to be cool, even in the air conditioned mater bedroom. A single, stronger wall unit in the master bedroom would do wonders for this house and make it more enticing for all types of renters.

I wanted to address this issue first, but please let me emphasize the wonderful aspects of this home. First off, the view is far better than advertised. The pictures made me expect a small view of the Napali coast and Hanalei Bay, but the view was extensive. Unbelievable double rainbow on our first morning really set the standard for our stay. The pool was also better than expected. Very smooth and beautiful, and we spent a great deal of time here. The pool is surrounded by trees bearing many types of fruit which were delicious to eat. The area in which the house resides is beautiful and serene, and we had a wonderful time down in Hanalei (very short drive). The kitchen is also more amazing than advertised.

Again, this is a wonderful house I highly recommend!!

Lovely home in nice location. Ammeneties perfect. The only reason I did not rate it 5 stars is because of the lack of AC - we were hot. Owner was very accommodating with borrowing a second crib.

Staying in this lovely home was the highlight of our week to Kuaui. My family and I have never experienced such luxury and relaxation. Leaving was difficult to say the least!

The family joined in Kauai for a week long vacation in paradise! The home was beautiful and so well equipped plus very comfortable and provided everything we needed to feel at home. We saw rainbows almost every day and gorgeous birds and lovely walk to St. Regis beach! The pool was a delightful addition. We will definitely return to this same spot! Thank you Richard and Donna for sharing your peaceful place with us! Warmly, The Biehl, Lee, Davis, Seymour crew
