Paradise Found! Luz, espaçosos, arejados-Custom Bluff Oceano Home w / 3 Suítes Master

With three air-conditioned bedrooms, this home proved to be an excellent choice for our extended family of eight. And make no mistake about it, if you are going to Kauai in the summer, you do need air conditioning.

Queen's Bath is close, but the path to it proved to be too challenging for the older members in the group, which included myself and my wife. Instead, we enjoyed going to Anini beach, which had relatively calm water, making it a good choice for the youngsters. We had no need for the beach umbrellas that were provided, but did use the beach chairs and the kids enjoyed using the shovels and pails. We also appreciated the abundance of towels.

If you've done snorkeling on any of the other islands, you'll find Kauai a bit disappointing, but there were many sea turtle sightings at Anini beach. Being on the North Shore also gives you relatively easy access to the beaches and trails along the Na Pali Coast.

Staying at this house is more like staying at someone's home than staying at a vacation rental. In fact, the host had stayed here just a short time prior to our arrival. The home is nicely decorated and has just about anything and everything you might need, including an abundance of glasses, dishes, silverware, and any kitchen utensil you might have in your own home. We ate just about every meal out on the patio where we grilled, while the kids played on the hammock and chased the chickens. Food can be acquired at the nearby (and expensive) Foodland, although you would do well to stock up with some items at Costco, which is near the Lihue airport. It is too far away, however, for frequent runs.

Highly recommended, although costly, was a trip we took with Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours, doors off, of course. The views are spectacular! We also greatly enjoyed Smith's luau. A Seabreeze boat excursion along the Na Pali coast afforded excellent views although the ride back was rather rough. There is much to do in Kauai, and Princeville, while far from many of the excursions, is certainly situated in arguably the most beautiful part of the island.

By the way, don't miss walking over to a nearby vacant lot overlooking the golf course to see the sunset.

We loved our stay at this house! Traveled with two families and each had our own master bedroom and plenty of space for kids to sleep.

House backs right up to the Queens Bath trailhead so we had the benefit of not having to wait for parking and could just explore the trails down to the shore to watch turtles or snorkel right from our backyard.

This was our first time to Hawaii/Kauai so we mostly slept and explored - beds were comfy, coffee pot worked and we grilled some food on the grill.

Plenty of chickens and roosters came to visit and had us waking up to watch the sunrise.

This house is nestled in the Princeville community with some nearby shopping and grocery and just a few minutes from Hanalei beach. We really wanted to explore Napali but it was still closed from mudslides and storms over a year ago! I would definitely come back again and would love to spend another week or two exploring the Island once Napali and all its trails re-open.

The owner was quick to respond to questions/concerns and we loved the entire experience, I think you will too!

We enjoyed our time at Anna’s lovely home. The house is very large and well equipped with all of the conveniences. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, which was great for our family. We enjoyed the AC in the bedrooms at night, and the beds were very comfortable. Anna (owner)was very helpful and was quick to respond to any requests. The house was spotless and located on a very nice street in Princeville.

This house was as advertised, and in a good location. Queen's Bath is still closed as of now, but that hasn't stopped many from completing the hike, which is right down the street. We enjoyed using some of the beach toys and were happy with our stay.

Great location for north shore activities
