We had a great stay. The location was ideal with so many great beaches and Hanalei so close by. The house was fully stocked and had great amenities. Everything for a great beach day was provided. The listing was very accurate and the host was attentive. We would definitely stay again.

Hale Papio was a wonderful, quiet retreat for our time in Kauai. It was a nice location at the back part of the complex with a secluded deck and yard area. The house had all we needed for our getaway.

What a great cottage! Everything we needed for our week visit. The kitchen was well equipped, the shower pressure really good. The grounds were beautiful, lots of song birds and flowers. Close to the beaches and grocery stores. The pool was refreshing and very clean. Quite neighboring condos. Love that it was a stand alone cottage.

This home was gorgeous and cozy, the property was beautiful and there was all the amenities needed to enjoy our stay. We loved how close the cottage was to a trail that led to the beach. The hosts were great help when we had issues with Vrbo trying to check in. And also provided great guides for food, fun, views, and beaches on the island. A truly wonderful stay!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Porter

Host profile image
Aloha from our Ohana to yours! We are based out of Denver, Colorado with Kauai being our second home. This bungalow is a long time dream made possible, we plan on living here full time once we retire. We are happy to share our Hale and our dream with you as our guest.

Why they chose this property

Kauai has a magic to it that welcomes you in and keeps you constantly in awe. This Princeville bungalow is in a prime location, situated off the walking path into Princeville Center where you can enjoy restaurants and shopping, weekend farmer's markets and sunset strolls with sweeping mountain views. Head out back of the bungalow and down the historic tree lined Queen Emma's carriage path to Wyllie Beach (the furthest extent of Anini Beach and a favorite spot to site sea turtles). all while only a 7 minute scenic drive down to Hanalei. The bungalow offers a large private lanai with golf course views and gorgeous tropical garden.

What makes this property unique

We love the privacy and tranquility of the bungalow with its expansive main suite, vaulted ceilings and native wood features. The spacious lanai and wine cooler make it perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The double headed shower in the main suite is the perfect luxury to get that sand out of your hair. When you're in the bungalow you are close to everything, but feel like you have your own piece of paradise.
