Om boendet

Har du drömt om att spendera din smekmånad på den vackra "Garden Island" i Kauai? Kanske planerar du en romantisk tillflyktsort för två. . . eller ett lugnt besök på en tropisk ö bort från ditt hektiska schema hemma. . . . Om du vill att ditt fritidshus ska befinna sig i en avskild oas av frodigt, tropiskt bladverk men ändå nära stränder och restauranger, kan denna stuga, Pali Uli 8 "The Gem" vara ditt perfekta val.

Det är fantastiskt hur nära du är till många aktiviteter, vackra stränder på norra kusten och ett trevligt utbud av restauranger och kaféer. Och ändå verkar det som om du är på din egen privata ö medan du är "hemma" och njuter av lugnet och lugn i denna nyrenoverade stuga med din privata "doppande" pool.

När du väljer att gå bort från din "shangri-la", hittar du en mängd moderna bekvämligheter som en mataffär, postkontor, butiker och gallerier, liksom massor av aktiviteter inklusive turer i vackra botaniska trädgårdar, ridning, zip line-turer, kajakpaddling med floder och hav, båtturer, snorkling och simning, surfing och vindsurfing, fiske, golf och naturligtvis sightseeing i Kauai naturens underverk, för att bara nämna några.

Du kommer också att vara säker på att komma in vid minst en av Sunshine- eller bondens marknader för färska, lokala grönsaker och frukt att inkludera i måltider som du väljer att förbereda hemma. Det finns en elektrisk grill samt det fullt utrustade köket där du kan skapa dina kulinariska mästerverk.

Denna charmiga stuga är på flera nivåer med loft-stil master svit på övervåningen komplett med eget badrum. Det andra sovrummet ligger på en annan nivå några steg ner och har också eget badrum. Den lägre nivån, några steg ner från det andra sovrummet, är det viktigaste vardagsrummet med kök, matplats och vardagsrum. Glidande glasdörrar i vardagsrummet leder till din privata Lanai och doppbassäng. Om du återvänder från stranden och vill skölja av innan du går in, finns det en utomhusdusch med varmt vatten för din bekvämlighet.

Om du har haft drömmar om din ideala tropiska gömställe, har de troligen varit av en plats precis som Pali Uli 8, en riktig 'pärla' i paradiset.

Paradise

We couldn't have asked for a better location. It was easy to get around the island, and it was very quiet and so beautiful! You could feel the love in this special house. The house was immaculate and cozy. The lani with the dipping pool was terrific. The management company communicated well. I wouldn't change anything, and I plan to return and stay there again!

The wading pool was extremely cold the whole time we were there, none of the 4 in our party could enjoy it, unfortunately …The vegetation is beautiful & creates much seclusion but it prevents the sun from shining on back patio or pool area, which was very disappointing

Overall it was perfect! The only problem was with the refrigerator. It wasn’t cold and some of our food spoiled. The food was expensive enough and to have it spoil was criminal! It was truly a secluded, beautiful and special place. We would stay there again and again.

Not as expected

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros: Good location as far as peace and quiet. It’s a freestanding unit so there’s no shared walls or anyone above you making noise. Bbq and beach/pool accessories are onsite.Fans in every room. Cons:The air conditioning is solar powered so expect it to not work about an hour before sunset. Hawaii is humid so it will get warm and muggy even in December for the first few hours at night. The air feels turbid without AC. There are nats and flies constantly within the unit. Cobwebs and dead flies are all over the place especially behind tables and floors. Geckos are hidden inside the cracks in the ceiling and even though they help with flies, you will hear them every night if you don’t mind. It is dusty around anything that’s not easily cleaned from the front surfaces. The unit is technically a two bedroom but the walls are wide open throughout so there’s no privacy between the living room and bedrooms. If you’re bringing a baby then expect to stay quiet if your baby is sensitive to noise in one of the bedrooms. The pool was nice to have but the sun never hit the pool deck in December. The step down to the pool is further than convenient. Be careful of a low spot where water doesn’t run off on the deck because it builds moss and gets slippery (small spot in front of pool). The walk down to the unit is on a steep grade and the furthest unit from the parking lot. (Groceries, luggage, etc.)The sofas were small and not very comfortable to lay down in. Conclusion:This place can be nice for some vacationers but it wasn’t what we expected. For the price we paid we thought it should have been nicer based on he description and pictures.Our second stay was far cleaner and nicer all around. And it’s was cheaper by about $50/night. If you’re looking for something with a secluded feel that’s i

“The Gem” lives up to its name!

For those, particularly couples, looking for a getaway from the rush and crowds of the resort scene, this is the place. It’s surrounded on three sides by forest, and you’re awakened each morning by the singing birds. It’s completely quiet and private. The dipping pool is a treasure, and really helps cool you off. The air conditioning unit didn’t work, but with the pool and fans we got used to the temperature and were pleased to have the fresh evening breeze come through the open windows. The kitchen is fully equipped and we were pleasantly surprised to find some nice-to-haves like plastic wrap. The washer-dryer unit was essential given our trips to the beach and hiking in the warmth, rain, and humidity. The master BR is a loft and open to the rest of the house; that greatly reduces privacy inside if more than one couple is sharing, but it’s necessary for air flow, and was perfect for us as one couple. It was very nice to have covered, designated parking, and to have a small, private community of just nine cottages. Perfectly quiet, which is so vital to rest and relaxation. If you’re looking for R&R, this is the place to stay! We will definitely come back again to enjoy this true gem!

Perfect Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Best cottage on the block. Super secluded and felt like we were in our own world. Only negatives I would give it was there were fleas in one of the beds and when we reached out to management (twice), we never got any kind of response. Luckily there was another bed and it was just us as a couple so we switched beds. Also I wish there were clear instructions on how to maintain the pool's cleanliness. Lastly, the septic tank is close by the pool/kitchen window and will blow out some stinky water debris every few flushes! We would stay again but maybe after a couple of improvements!

Great and secluded

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had booked a place at Sealodge, then switched to the Gem. It helped us stay more isolated for noise (we couldn’t hear neighbors, and hopefully neighbors couldn’t hear our 5 year old). Place was great, clean, and had a beach trunk full of pool noodles, flippers, and snorkels. There’s more photos of the owner and their family than you’d expect, and a lot of Christian crosses, but maybe that makes guests take care of it better. Place could use a Yale code lock to avoid having to pick up and drop off keys at the rental office. The king bed was good enough, the couch feels rough to the touch- but is otherwise clean, there’s an odd stone threshold in the guest bedroom, and some gecko guano above the door frames. Overall great, would stay again.

Very private cottage…a real Gem

We’ve stayed at several VRBOs, and this is one of the best! The cottage is secluded, yet is located close to stores, walking paths, golf courses, and comes complete with its own dipping pool. It’s very clean and comfortable. It’s surrounded by lovely tropical forest all the way to the ocean cliffs. The kitchen is tight and the drawers packed a bit too full of kitchen items, but very doable. If we ever come back to this part of Kauai, we would choose to stay here again. Mahalo for the experience!

Loved our stay and will definitely come back!

What a gem - we stayed in February and enjoyed waking up to the chorus of songbirds and the feel of the jungle was absolutely amazing. The toads could also be heard at night which made it feel magical. The cottage is very private and quiet surrounded by lush rainforest and very attractive and comfortable. We enjoyed the dipping pool although it was not heated but it was still warm enough to hop in.(74 degrees February) We had everything we needed and the neighborhood is stunning. Daily walks by the beautiful golf courses down towards Hanalie Bay. Cottage is very comfortable and inviting . Definitely recommend especially if you don’t like the hotel/condo experience .

Honeymoon in Heaven!

My husband and I stayed in Kauai for the first week of our honeymoon, and we're so happy we were able to stay at Pali Uli #8! Even though it was one of eight similar cottages, this one felt super secluded and quiet. It was extremely clean and we loved spending the afternoons in the dipping pool! The location was perfect for getting to Hanalei and we also loved getting coffee in Kilauea. We would definitely stay here again because we loved how cozy it felt and the layout of the cottage itself made it feel spacious!

A Honeymoon Dream!

We stayed at this gem of a property for our honeymoon in Kauai. The property was actually better than expected. Clean upon arrival, beautifully set up, and had plenty of kitchen wares and necessities for cooking! The pool could have been cleaner, but someone came halfway through the week for the cleaning so it was all good. The air conditioner doesn’t do much, but we embraced the Hawaiian breeze and loved it! The location can’t be beat because you are safe and close to others but feel like you are in your own private jungle. Avocados fall off the tree daily, I mean, what more could we ask for?! The rental company was also accommodating when we had to reschedule our trip and the key was an easy pick up after hours. Stay here, for sure.

Beautiful, peaceful, private

Wow, the "Gem" at Pali Uli 8 exceeded our expectations and was one of the best spots we've stayed on Kauai! The house is the last property in the community, giving it complete seclusion and stunning views of the surrounding jungle landscape. The interior was immaculate, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Even with mostly cloudy/rainy days during our early December stay, we still enjoyed the outdoor patio and outdoor shower. On top of the house itself, we absolutely loved its proximity to Hanalei, the gorgeous mountain views, and Ha'ena State Park (be sure to reserve your park entrance/parking pass online within 30 days of your trip!). Agree with other comments that the house is best suited for a couple, or more if you don't mind the open loft-style walls. We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again, if we're lucky enough to visit Kauai again in the future! :)

We appreciated the use of the snorkeling gear - only one day where conditions were good enough. Loved Hanalei and Ke’e beaches immensely. The house was well positioned in Princeville and it was easy to get around.

Kauai Vacation Rentals & Real Estate, Inc är värd

It all began with a vision. A desire to share the magical island of Kauai with the world. And, founder, Lucy Kawaihalau, has dedicated her life to that goal through Kauai Vacation Rentals. "In a vacation rental home or condo, you really feel like you're living here," reflects Lucy, "so bringing together home owners and guests to achieve the 'best fit' is only a part of our distinguished reputation. Our responsibilities are twofold. For our owners, we provide the best management and maintenance services so they can rest easy, knowing their homes are meticulously cared for, since they may be thousands of miles away from their investment. For our guests, we believe they should be treated like royalty." And, it is the respect for the guest that gained Kauai Vacation Rentals recognition throughout the world. A friendly team dedicated to serving the needs of guests, with attention to all the details, makes it all possible. "A vacation to Kauai is so meaningful," adds Lucy. "For some, it may be the trip of a lifetime. For others, it may be a yearly event. This is a splendid place to relax. Our guests are 'energized' when they go home. That's what we mean when we say, 'magical Kauai.' " This genuine business model embodies the Hawaiian word, 'Aloha,' and it has gained much recognition within the industry and business venues, including numerous awards. Many glowing articles have been written, from Kauai Business & Real Estate Magazine, Hawaii Business, and internationally distributed Travel & Leisure Magazine to famed Fortune Magazine. In fact, Lucy Kawaihalau was personally honored with coveted awards from the Small Business Administration and Kauai Chamber of Commerce for her successful business achievements. Lucy concludes, "I am deeply grateful for our recognition and awards. Yet, it is the phone call, with heartfelt and glowing remarks about a visit to Kauai from a satisfied guest that brings us great joy. Therein lies our greatest achievement."
