Right on the beach

This property is everything that it says it is, a top story top notch home away from home. The lanai is exactly as it is pictured and the view is amazing. Sunsets are stunning, whale watching is easy, kitchen and living room is perfectly situated to continue to enjoy the views as is the master bedroom and sitting room. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Hanalei or Princeville

Pu’u Poa Paradise

Beautifully updated Pu’u Poa unit with spectacular ocean views (including Bali Hai to the left) and three high performance AC units. Pickleball/tennis court on property and two minute walk next door to ultra luxurious 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay. Charles is an extremely responsive owner and Ian is equally accessible and helpful as the property manager. Absolutely the place to stay when visiting Princeville area!!

Excellent Views

The views of Bali Hai and the ocean were magnificent. We saw whales and dolphins from the terrace. We chose to eat out but the kitchen is well stocked for cooking meals. The beds were comfortable. One thing to note is you do have to climb stairs to get to the unit but it wasn’t a problem for our group. Overall it was a very nice condo and we hated to leave.

Perfection

Our family had the most incredible stay at this condo in Princeville! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning views that surrounded us. Each morning, we woke up to breathtaking vistas and were lucky enough to spot whales gracefully breaching in the distance—an unforgettable sight!The condo itself was spacious and beautifully designed, providing ample room for our family to relax and enjoy our time together. The open layout allowed for easy movement between the living areas and the outdoor spaces, where we spent countless hours soaking up the sun and taking in the lush surroundings.We appreciated the thoughtful amenities and comfortable furnishings that made our stay feel like a home away from home. The location was perfect, allowing us to explore the nearby beaches and trails while also providing a peaceful retreat to return to each day.If you're looking for a place that combines natural beauty, comfort, and space for the whole family, this condo in Princeville is the ideal choice. We can't wait to come back!

The best sunset view in Princeville

My wife and I stayed 5 nights to celebrate our 21st anniversary. The condo unit was very spacious, a lot of natural light and a fanastic ocean front view. You can also see the mountain peak that is the begining of the Napali Coast next to the sun going down into the ocean. There were three AC units in the unit that provided plenty of cooling. There were also ceiling fans in every room and a washer and dryer. We really liked Hidaways beach witch was directly down a bluff below us. A trail led down to the beach from the edge of the property.

Great views and beautiful sunsets

The condo size was great for my family of four. We had to use the pullout sofa bed and my daughter said it was comfortable (could use more pillows in the condo). Kitchen was adequate for cooking meals in which we did a lot since restaurants are sparse or operating hours are short. The pool was nice and hardly used by other guests. We do wish there was a hot tub though. That would be nice in the mornings and evenings. The views is what sells this place! Loved seeing the ocean out all the windows and watching surfers from the lanai. Charles was very good at communicating with us and making sure everything was going well. Great place would come back and stay again :)

You are on your own

We had trouble using lockbox to enter property and called the management company for assistance. They told us they have not managed the property in 2.5 years but just thanks to their kindness, they talked me through opening the lockbox anyway. There were no instructions on how to use the tv/electronics so we ended up using our iPads. Tips on beaches etc were out of date. It’s a beautiful location, and it’s a nice comfortable condo. You can easily walk to a gorgeous beach in front of the 1Hotel resort, or take a difficult hike to another gorgeous beach closer to condo. We would definitely go back and pick a different condo in this complex, as there are many to choose from.

Beautiful view, comfortable & well appointed condo

Felt like home! We stayed a month and had a fantastic experience. The unit was very clean, organized and had everything we needed. The kitchen had plenty of tableware and any gadget we needed to cook a nice meal. The grill worked well. Plenty of beach toys, chairs, cooler bag, walking sticks, etc located in the balcony closet. Air conditioning worked really well. At 2000 sq feet this place is very roomy. Of course the ocean view is great, with a mountain view and a pool view all the way to the left. You will need to walk to get to nearby beaches (1 down a steep hill, 1 other down a set of long steps) but you can access several other beaches all within a 15 minute or less drive. Overall this was a delightful place to stay. We hope to be back soon!

Beautiful & comfortable Princeville Stay

We had a great time at Charles's property. The day before arrival I got a call from the property manager and he answered any questions we had immediately throughout the entire stay. Great place to stay with a group because we got to use the kitchen, outdoor balcony with an incredible view, and main living space thoroughly, and felt so comfortable and at home. Great location and super close to Hanalei and Anini beach, where we visited multiple times. Highly recommend for groups and families.

We have stayed at this condo location many times over the past twenty years and this particular unit is certainly one of our favorites! It is beautifully and comfortably decorated, light and bright, and (perhaps most importantly in July), the AC units are top notch! We HIGHLY recommend this unit for your next stay on the North Short of Kauai!!

Breathtaking!

My husband, our two daughters and I spent 2 weeks in this amazing condo. There is no better way than to wake up to the crashing waves and surfers every morning. We have stayed at other units on this property, but this was the first that had the enclosed sunroom, instead of the second lanai. It ended up being my favorite space to read and watch the whales and rolling waves. We cooked most meals and the condo was fully equipped with everything we needed. Having indoor and outdoor seating for meals allowed us to stay dry and watch the surfers in the morning then watch the sunsets outside at dinner. In the closets, there was a lovely small library of books and games, extra linens… The condo had everything to make you feel at home and be very comfortable. It was clean and although it has AC, we loved that there were ceiling fans in every room. The property itself is well maintained. The pool and tennis court is a short walk away and there was always plenty of parking. If you are not familiar with the area, this is a very safe and beautiful community with golf courses, and many sidewalks. There are a few restaurants within walking distance, and a short drive takes you to shops and a grocery store. Everything about our stay was perfect! We look forward to coming back.

Restorative Respite

We absolutely loved staying at Charles’s PV condo. It was immaculate upon check-in, quiet, private, and a true getaway. You will want to stock up on groceries and not plan on straying far from this gem. From Hideaways beach path below, the pool, and the patio with unparalleled sunset views, everything you need is right here. My partner was on the island for work, and I was working remotely, which I could do very comfortably. Charles was attentive and detail oriented. We would love to return.
