Great location for sunsets
We've been to Kauai three times now, and Big Island four times, coming from Canada. This was the best location we've stayed in Kauai for sunset viewing, which is my favourite activity! You can walk out on the adjacent golf course each evening for sunset viewing from cliffs overlooking the ocean.
As for the condo itself, it is right on the main Princeville road (separated by a huge fern hedge), but not too noisy except for the second bedroom which faces the road. the balcony is on the corner of the unit facing towards the ocean, but there are no direct views as it's a ways off. We also didn't use it much for dining as it rains every day and the balcony is only partly covered, so it was always wet.
The kitchen was very well-stocked with utensils, dishes and such. Nice appliances. The open concept is great, the living area has wonderful windows facing the lawn and is very bright. Nice furnishings, but we don't like glass dining tables (I'm not sure anyone could). Minor inconvenience though.
The location is great walking distance to Hideaways beach, the Hotel 1 beach and Queen's Bath, all of which we walked to several times. The condo came with good beach chairs, but the beach umbrella was flimsy so we bought our own. There were no boogie boards so we bought our own at Costco and left one behind. Snorkle gear was minimal but we brought our own.
The condo pool area is nice but a bit small. Loved the hot tub and the communal BBQ area is there as well with tables to sit at.
