Great Condo that came perfectly equipped with towels, beach gear and well stocked kitchen. The plants around the balcony are gorgeous and the notes about local farmers markets were super helpful.
Very great rental for the price. It really is the perfect Kauai getaway and located just minutes from a classic Hawaiian experience in Hanalei town. Communication with the Property Manager once was very pleasant and helpful.
Check-in instructions were clear and the process was smooth. Great location with all the essentials available closeby. The Studio is equipped with all the amenities and also includes beach chairs, umbrella and a cooler which was a nice bonus. Would stay again!
I appreciate Rick for the help he supplied in finding the location of property. He was prompt in answering. Great location and great unit for the cost. Definitely recommend.
Really clean place (no sand on the floor as there usually tends to be in Hawaii despite cleaning). Very good instructions. They had all the amenities we might have needed and more - toaster, microwave, coffeemaker, keurig pods, etc. not a big deal- but the place doesn’t receive much natural daylight if you plan to be inside.
I never talked to the host but the instructions were easy to follow and amenities were excellent

Condo was very clean and in a great location. The complex was quiet and well taken care of and within walking distance to the market square. Would definitely stay here again.
Rick's place was a perfect home base for exploring the North Shore of Kauai, at an absolute bargain compared to other options. Comfy, quiet and conveniently located; only 10-15 min walk from a grocery store & restaurants and a short hike to a beautiful beach. He even has beach chairs/umbrella and snorkeling gear you can borrow!Loved the peaceful outdoor lanai to enjoy the local birds. Appreciated kitchen amenities like a toaster oven, foil/ziploc bags, salt/pepper/cooking basics, coffee maker and Keurig with some pods. 10/10 will visit again.

We enjoyed the stay. The property had everything we needed. We had a rental car and were able to access quite a few attractions.
The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and a spacious fridge! We were close to the pool and parking was super easy. The bed was super comfortable, shower was great and the bathroom had more than enough. Rick left all the beach supplies you’d need, including snorkeling gear! Wish I sat out on the terrace more so we will definitely try to book this place again. The trail to the smaller private beach was fun but definitely wear good hiking shoes especially if it rained! Definitely would suggest booking here if you have a rental car since you’re pretty close to Hanalei Bay and Anini beach! Easy and beautiful drive to other remote further beaches as well. Overall a great stay!

Thank you Zach. I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. A hui hou.
Rick(owner)was very friendly and responsive. As soon as I made him aware the keurig in our unit was shot we had another one delivered to our door within the hour! Our little studio was cute and well equipped.All cooking and cleaning supplies we needed were supplied. Shower stocked with nice shampoos. Towels for the pool too.Unit was very clean with comfy queen bed.We enjoyed the polar bear plunge in the facility pool as well! We were surprised it wasn’t heated over the winter, but it felt great having it to cool down when needed!Highly recommend Rick and his little studio. It’s perfect for a single person or couple to enjoy staying in the North shore for a few days!

Thank you Jason. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. I hear you on the pool, but there are very few heated pools in Princeville (or Kauai for that matter), because most use propane heaters, and the cost can be prohibitively expensive. The larger resorts have heated pools, but they also have hundreds of rooms to cover the cost vs a 29 unit condo complex. I hope you’ll come back anytime between Spring and Fall. The pools plenty warm then. Aloha.
Everything was perfect! Exactly as described and expected. We greatly enjoyed this cute bungalow on the north shore. Highly recommended and would come back in a heartbeat.

About the host
Hosted by Rick Emens (RB) License no.: RB-15258
I traveled much of the world and found myself on Kauai in 1979. I knew the minute I arrived that I was home. I continued to vacation on Kauai yearly and finally decided to move to Kauai full time in 1986. I moved to the mainland in 2010 to explore the U.S., but Kauai stayed on my mind and in 2015 I came "home".
Why they chose this property
I looked at the numerous options available and decided that at this stage in my life a condo would be the best thing for me. Paniolo offers a great location and amenities such as an on-site pool, a trail down to Anini Beach and the convenience of being just minutes away from world class beaches, numerous outdoor activities, shopping, a library and park.
What makes this property unique
The quiet location and proximity to the North Shores numerous wonderful beaches, shopping, restaurants and outdoor activities offers something for everyone. I recently added a large kitchenette, refurbished the bathroom and added a privacy wall to separate the sleeping area from the dining and entertainment areas. I've tried hard to provide everything you'll need to have a safe and enjoyable getaway. It's the perfect getaway for either a single traveler or couple. E Komo Mai!
