Photo gallery for Ocean View Princeville Condo Near Hanalei Bay & Anini Beach, with pool

Alii Kai 8H has a private balcony lanai overlooking one of the complex pools and the Pacific Ocean in the background
There's a large smart TV in the living room, which makes movie night a breeze! After a long day running around the island, you'll be glad to get home and kick your feet up at Alii Kai 8H.
If sit down meals are more your style, you'll find there's plenty of space for your whole group at the dining table. With seating and dishes for 6, it'll be easy to get the whole family around the table for a meal or board game.
The private ensuite bathroom in each bedroom is a nice touch of luxury. Since both bedrooms have their own, you won't have to share your bathroom time or wait in line for the shower each morning!
The Alii Kai II complex pool is beautifully maintained, sparkling clean, and super inviting!

Mahalo for your feedback Ashley! We would love to keep a full kitchen's stock of spices and cooking oil, but unfortunately the damp environment means that they spoil faster, so we prefer to let guests bring their own. We'll definitely replenish the stock of coffee filters, though. Thanks for the heads up! We hope we'll be able to welcome you back soon, and we're wishing you safe travels in 2025 :-) Aloha

The unit was ok. A little worn. Very clean. Dishwasher and door under sink needs a fix. NO AIR CONDITIONING. In the morning it’s humid. Ok for sleeping temperature. If you want to sleep late this is not the place. No AC means windows opens. chickens/roosters crowing at dawn!!! Pool shown in picture is not the pool for this unit. The pool for this unit is much nicer. Views are beautiful!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.

It was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for cooking. Was a great experience for two couples. Would highly recommend a car as not much is within walking distance but a peaceful, beautiful location to relax and cute towns/amazing beaches within a short drive.

Good value

The condo is generally clean and comfortable and has a lovely view of the ocean. The pool and spa are also nice and very well maintained. The only issues were- #1 guest shower had issues with water temperature - had to crank up the cold and barely use hot water to get to a good temperature. #2 dishwasher is clearly on its las legs and wouldn't close on the last day. #3 Sliding doors wouldn't close without lifting it off the track first.

Has the basics and a good view

As other reviews stated, this unit is quite dated and while we did have everything we needed, it did feel quite old. The pool pictured in the photos is directly beneath the unit but you will not have access to it. The pool for this unit is not far but it’s not right below, which is puzzling! We appreciated the hospitality, ease of booking and did enjoy the views.

Great for what we needed

A family of our stayed here and it suited our needs well. Beds were comfortable, space was great. As other reviews stated, the pool in the picture is not the one for this condo, but the pool we used is bigger and more family friendly- not a big deal for us at all. We enjoyed the privacy of being the end unit. The rental does have a few beach chairs and umbrella but they are very tired with broken straps. We did not have internet while we were there and none of the batteries in the remote controls worked. Wifi would have been nice since our phone service was spotty, but we were warned about this ahead of time. Rental unit feels a little tired, but is well-kept and very clean. Would be open to staying here again.

Great stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our location and our view... Being over the pool had his pros and cons though in the later evenings... For the price we paid, we thought the kitchen could use a tiny upgrade for sure, but other than that we were very happy. We were easy guests doing our own laundry and treating the property like our own home... we donated three brand new boogie boards to the closet for the next many guests to use and we hope the owners can enjoy them as well. We would definitely stay again. Mahalo!

I booked a suite for four people and expected to be charged accordingly. However, I was surprised to see additional charges on my bill, including fees for the number of guests—which was already disclosed at the time of booking—as well as a resort fee, resort tax, and extra room charges. The total amount charged was significantly higher than I anticipated and quite unexpected.
