About this property
Oceanfront penthouse, whale watch from your lanai, gorgeous kitchen!
Located on the seaside cliffs of Kauai’s beautiful North Shore, Ali'i Kai 4303 is a top-floor retreat with the most incredible ocean views in every room! It's truly a whale watcher's dream come true. Inside you'll find two attractive bedrooms, each with their own ocean view picture windows, an inviting living area, and a fully-equipped, beautifully updated kitchen. For those of us that aren't lucky enough to leave work on the mainland, you'll even find a well-lit desk in the master suite that makes the perfect home office. You'll also enjoy the dramatic views of the Pacific from the private balcony lanai, which is the perfect spot for enjoying a peaceful sunrise or sunset over the water.

Fully Equipped Kitchen: Beautifully updated with modern appliances and essentials for home-cooked meals.

Top Things to Do Near Ali'i Kai Resort
Centrally located in Princeville, HI, providing easy access to the North Shore's best attractions:
Beaches: Anini Beach (15 mins) for snorkeling with sea turtles (Honu) and Hanalei Bay (15 mins) for swimming.
Golf: A 10-minute walk to the nationally ranked Makai Golf Club.

Nature & Sightseeing: Visit the iconic Kilauea Lighthouse and Wildlife Preserve (20 mins away).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a good spot for whale watching?
Yes. Between November and April, the private lanai offers an elevated vantage point to spot humpback whales.
Are there stairs to access the unit?
As a top-floor unit in the Alii Kai complex, access is via stair access, there are no elevators.
What is included in the rental?
The unit is stocked with beach gear (chairs, umbrellas), a washer/dryer, and a full kitchen.
If you find yourself wanting for an activity other than soaking up the amazing views from the condo, Ali'i Kai 4303 is primed for you to take advantage of all the North Shore has to offer! Anini Beach is just 15 minutes away, and has crystal clear waters that are perfect for snorkeling! You might even catch a glimpse of a Honu (Hawaiian green sea turtle) while you're there. Hanalei Bay is also just 15 minutes away, and has beautiful golden sand beaches with calm waters perfect for all ages of swimmers. The charming island town of Hanalei is right nearby, and has a variety of boutiques and delicious restaurants and cafes for all your shopping and dining needs. Fresh fish dinner at the Dolphin followed by shave ice at Wishing Well will always be the perfect evening if you ask us! If you want a break from the crowds, we recommend heading to Kilauea, just 20 minutes down the road, to check out the iconic lighthouse and wildlife preserve, and to grab a coffee from any one of their cute cafes (Kai Bar and Trilogy are both excellent). If you prefer sticking a bit closer to home, the Princeville shopping center is just a mile away, and has plenty of options for shopping and grabbing tasty bites, as well as the Foodland grocery store for even more convenience! Stop by on a Saturday morning and you can hit the farmers market before heading over for the free hula show in the afternoon. The nationally ranked Makai golf course is also just a 10 minute walk away from your front door, and has some of the best golfing in the country.
The exterior entryway to this property is monitored by a security camera.
As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned, though there are fans in each room and screen doors on the lanai to help with air flow.
This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down two flights of stairs from the parking lot to the front door (roughly 22 steps). There are no elevators.
Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.
