About this property

Magical 4 Bedroom 3 Bath Home with Awesome Mountain Views

The moment you enter this extraordinary 2000 ft plus home you will be greeted by beautiful custom designed tile floors that lead to 3 downstairs bedrooms, one is a large master suite with king-bed, flat screen T.V. with full bath. The sliding doors open to the large, private backyard and your private hot outdoor shower. You will love the other 2 bedrooms, one with 2 twin beds, the next with bunkbeds. Both bedrooms share their own lanai and bathroom. This bathroom has a bathtub for kids or those who want a relaxing bath.

As you go up the bamboo floor stairs you'll be greeted by a beautiful great room surrounded by full windows with mountain views and a vaulted wood ceiling and bamboo wood floors. The kitchen is large and open with stainless steel appliances including a six burner gas range, High End dishwasher, microwave, oven and refrigerator with an ice maker---everything you need for a wonderful meal. Enjoy coffee from the Kuerig single cup or regular drip coffee maker. There are several great Blenders for tropical treats while you sit inside and enjoy the view or outside on your large lanai. The mountains and lush tropical landscape are beautiful to look at all day long. Inside we have a flat screen T.V. and Wifi. The soft trade winds fill the house with a lovely breeze year-round-plus there are high end ceiling fans in every major room. Air conditioning in the upstairs only is available when the trades are calm. (No air conditioning downstairs) The 2nd master bedroom is upstairs with a full bath and luxury king bed. You'll wake up to the lovely views of the fruit trees, the swaying coconut palms and singing birds. Depending on the season--you can enjoy our fresh Starfruit, Citrus, Avocados and bananas.

Don't sleep too late because the #1 beach in the U.S. is just a few minutes away at Hanalai bay. In the garage are beach chairs, sand toys, boogie boards, coolers and snorkel gear. We have everything you need for a day at the beach including tons of beach towels. Five beach cruiser bikes are here for exploring the wonderful paths to the St. Regis, Hideaways beach, Queens bath and Princeville shopping center with its restaurants, shops and all-important Lapperts ice cream! Just around the corner you will find the world class Makai Golf Course and tennis courts. Golf clubs are at the house for your use. A gas barbecue is located on the upstairs lanai for your vacation cookouts. We also have new full-size washer and dryer to keep it all clean. Everything you need for a wonderful stay on the Garden Island of Kauai.

Besties Trip

For my 50th birthday I brought my best friend my two sons and one of their best friends to Kauai! We had an amazing time and loved our stay in Ben and Linda's home! It is beautiful, comfortable and the strategically placed lanai offers the most amazing view of the regal mountains and the best place to spend a peaceful morning listing to and watching the array of birds who visit the trees and plants in the gorgeous landscaping!

Great house and location has all you need

Home was fully stocked with everything you need from beach gear, snorkel gear, laundry detergent and so much more. Extremely clean and well maintained home in a great neighborhood. Short drive to Hanalei bay, Anini beach and Queens bath. Could not ask for a better place for a large family. Had a great time.

Great Bang for the Buck

This property is a great value. It is large, nicely furnished and well equipped. The yard is large and full of orange and avocado trees that we harvested for our use. The mountain views are lovely. The Owner and Property Manager are responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Stay

My wife and I just got done with our stay at Ben and Linda's beautiful home in Princeville. We could not have had a better stay in Kauai. The home was perfect for our stay in such a beautiful neighborhood and in our favorite part of the island. Ben was also fantastic in communicating with me on any questions I had. I highly recommend to anyone else considering staying at their home. We are already looking forward to our next trip back!!

Princeville Paradise

We loved our stay here! This home has everything you need to be vacation homebodies or adventurers! The home is beautiful, great Mountain View’s from the Lanai, all the necessities to make your meals at home. We loved the large gathering spaces for the family and the 4 bedrooms gave everyone their own space to rest when they need it! Lots of beach/snorkeling equipment to use too! We loved having laundry available in the home! The host was amazingly responsive and quick to help with questions or request we made. This is a great place for anyone looking for a beautiful place to call “home” for a while in Kauai! We can’t wait to go back and stay here again!

Forever home? I wish!

The home is so perfect for us, if I win the lottery I am going to put in an offer to buy---lol. We are two grandparents, two parents and two grandchildren and it was the perfect space and place for us. A short and beautiful walk away from the grocery store, a toy and children's book store and an awesome breakfast bowl place called "The Spot". Even though we had a laundry appliance glitch (in no way any fault of anyone) the owner was extremely supportive and helpful and this did not mar our vacation, but instead I include this because I felt so very respected by the host. Top marks and I would definitely recommend this home.

Fabulous home in Princeville

Perfect location on the north shore of Kauai. Located in beautiful Princeville giving you easy access to many beaches including Hanalei bay. Close to many great restaurants, grocery stores and other amenities. The house is well appointed especially when traveling with extended family/group. Main living space with kitchen dining and sitting room has great views. We really enjoyed the large covered lanai. The property itself is beautiful , very private . Neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. Three full bathrooms and four very comfortable bedrooms. Lots of beach supplies to use. Would highly recommend.

Perfection

I cannot say enough good things about this property! It was stocked with everything your heart desires, from the rice cooker to beach equipment to internet! ALL THE THINGS! Such a great neighborhood! There is nothing to be desired with this place, just incredible. We hope to come again one day and stay here! Ben checked in on us to make sure all was well and was easy to get a hold of. Location was fantastic and we took advantage of the bikes to be able to get to the shopping center that was so close and convenient! If you do not book this place, you will be missing out. Thanks again to the Bunn family, we had an absolutely incredible vacay!

The house is lovely and in a beautiful neighborhood. The host supplies ample chairs, beach towels, bikes, and beach toys to keep a family busy. The back yard is spacious and tropical. The view of the mountains from the deck was delightful and the kitchen was well stocked. I hesitate to say anything negative but I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the AC really only covers the upstairs. While the description says the tradewinds keeps the downstairs cool, we did not find that to be the case, especially when people were sleeping in the bedrooms with the doors closed. It became uncomfortably warm down there at times. Also, the internet was present downstairs but was painfully slow - less than 1MB download when we ran a speed test. So it all worked out when we focused on being upstairs but if you are hoping for a little separation within the house, the downstairs does have those limitations, which don't quite match the description. Overall, a lovely stay with some small incoveniences.

Family Vacation

We have visited Kauai multiple times over the years and this was by far the best place we’ve stayed in so far. Clean, well stocked with essentials, in walking distance to stores and parks, lots of healthy fruit trees, soft towels, beach towels, chairs, bikes, helmets, toys and books and on and on. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with our family.

Family Reunion

The house is very spacious and allowed everyone in our group of six to have personal space as well as wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces for group dinners/BBQs. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals. It’s a relatively short walk to the beach. I wouldn’t carry a cooler to the beach but could manage a beach chairWe had a fantastic time!

Roomy house in Princeville

The house has plenty of space for 6 people. It's well-furnished, with a big kitchen. We spent most of our time on the upstairs porch, enjoying the birds and the view. The two ensuite bathrooms were great but the shower/tub in the other bathroom could use an upgrade. We appreciated the beach equipment that was available. I would stay here again.

Beautiful quiet neighborhood, short drive to lovely beaches

We (7 adults) were very comfortable at this lovely home, with all the amenities we could hope for. It was so helpful to have use of beach towels, beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, umbrellas, and boogie boards, all provided by the host. Likewise, the kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to have meals at 'home.' The table does not accommodate more than 5, but the bar stools afforded us plenty of seating for meals. We also loved sitting on the balcony, especially in the early morning when the bird songs provided the perfect soundtrack to start the day. The only minor complaint I have is the air circulation, as all the a/c units are upstairs and it was difficult to get the downstairs bedrooms cool enough for sleeping. However, opening the windows does allow for breezes to provide some relief.

Great Family Home on the North Side

This home was perfect for our group of 6. The kitchen was fully stocked and the owner was helpful and informative. The grocery and a small strip mall was within walking distance and there was anything you needed for outdoor activities. Can’t rave enough about how great this vacation was. The outdoor shower was a hit.

About the host

Hosted by Ben & Linda Bunn

Host profile image
Our family has been coming to Kauai for the past 18 years. In 2011, we decided that Kauai was our special place on earth that we always wanted in our lives. This started a search for a home away from home. One that we wanted to stay in, some place so nice we would rather stay there than a hotel, a place we could all be 'ohana' family and have plenty of room for friends. Our house on Emmalani means that to us and we hope it will mean that to you and your family too. With Aloha Spirit, Linda and Ben

Why they chose this property

This house has a special feeling-- very open and relaxing- a place you can really disconnect. It is also on a big lot with privacy loaded with fruit trees and tropical plants. Probably love the singing birds in the morning as much as anything. If you like the feeling of the soft warm air as you wake up then you will love this house as much as we do!
