Had a great time it rained a little bit, but the kids use the pool and the hot tub. Hot tub cover wasn’t on, but I found it over the other side of the wall. Had lots of towels and plenty of beach towels. Only thing we didn’t have was washcloths. The house was very clean and well stocked.

The property is perfectly located in a beautiful neighborhood. Quick walk to the shopping center and a 5 minute drive to Hanalei Bay Area. Other than being short on trash bags, everything was such a joy! Perfect place to get family from around the country together.

Awesome house

We loved our stay at this house!! It was perfect for our whole family grandparents and kids included. The pool was a hit for everyone and the perfect way to cool down! The downstairs was open and made it easy to all gather together. The upstairs was great for our kiddos and us. The master bathroom was amazing with a HUGE shower. It was clean and well maintained. Having the beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards was so convenient. We all highly recommend and loved the location being so close to Hanalei Bay! Can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

Magic of Kauai

We’ve stayed in Princeville for years, renting different houses each time, but this one takes the top spot! The house was actually larger and more spacious than the photos which is almost never the case. The bedrooms were all perfect for our family, with king beds, great airflow, and the master suite was nicer than any hotel/resort room we’d been too, super luxurious with a massive bathroom that made my wife and I feel like we had our own honeymoon suite. The location is excellent, on a little used part of the golf course which made the backyard feel super expansive and private. The pool was a bonus that came in handy on the hot afternoons after long beach day. Hosts were super responsive about our questions, as well, making for an all around fantastic experience.
