Perched on a bluff above the beautiful Pacific Ocean, Cliffs 5-301 is on the third floor (no elevator) and offers wonderful views of the ocean and mountains as well as the lush foliage for which the north shore is famous. Enjoy these spectacular vistas through the 18 foot floor-to-ceiling windows of this spacious corner unit or step out onto either lanai for a closer look.

One lanai is off the master bedroom and is a great spot to curl up with a good book while the second, off the living room, is a perfect place to relax, as well as dine, with ocean views in the distance. In the evenings, you will want to experience Kauai's colorful sunsets here and, undoubtedly, reflect on another glorious day in paradise.

Decorated with attention to detail and tastefully furnished, this condo includes thoughtful amenities such as an extra TV in the loft and the master bedroom and a fully equipped kitchen. The vaulted ceiling adds a spacious feel and island-style furnishings nicely compliment the tropical scenery. Cliffs 5-301 is perfectly positioned to capture tropical breezes which enhance the already comfortable ambiance.

Laze beside the swimming pool a short walk away and, after a day filled with activity and adventure, luxuriate in one of the adjacent spas (one is an adult-only spa) to enjoy total relaxation. The Cliffs also has a Kid's playground, 1/2 court basketball court, Pickle ball/Paddle ball, 2 Shuffleboard courts, Bicycle Rental, Mini Putting Green, business center, concierge services and 24 hour security.

It's a short drive through the luscious north shore hillsides to the neighboring town of Hanalei where local establishments offer shopping and a variety of restaurants including locals' favorites, Kalypso's and the Hanalei Dolphin. These eateries compliment the four-star dining available in the Princeville resort area. Some of the most pristine beaches in the world are located within minutes of the condo, including Hideaways Beach, Hanalei Bay, Tunnels and Anini and, in the winter, the surf on the north shore is spectacular. For the golfer, Princeville offers the 27 hole Makai course designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr, with some of the most spectacular mountain and ocean settings in the world.

Activities nearby include swimming, snorkeling, fishing, surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding, helicopter tours, Zip Line course, biking, shopping, tennis and golf.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed here prior to Covid and loved this unit. Condo is perfect for our family of 4. Nice location,views,and amenities. Didn’t think it could get any better, to our surprise the condo has been refreshed and it’s very tasteful with cool blue hues and island decor. Not sure if it’s the owners or KVR but the toilet paper, paper towels and extra soap (dish, laundry and bath) was much appreciated for our 12 night stay. The spices in the kitchen came in handy for those few dinners prepared- we were sure to replace and left our boys 2 boogie boards for other kids to enjoy. Already planning our 3rd return visit at 5301.Thank you to the owners for sharing this beautiful island retreat and to Kauai Vacation Rentals.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place, great location and all the amenities that we needed. My wife and I decided to stay in the North Shore and the Cliffs 5-301 was the perfect place four our stay. First off, the place itself was amazing with a ton of space, all the amenities we needed for our stay and was super clean. 5-301 has great views of the ocean and mountains and was perfectly located to hiking, beaches and sites we visited in the North Shore but also manageable for when we visited the South and East side of the island. The rental even included a cooler, beach umbrella and chairs which came in clutch! Overall, had an amazing time in Kauai and can't wait to make it back and would consider this place again for sure.

We were very happy with the condo-warning, it is up 3 flights of stairs with no elevator. It is well maintained and everything we needed was there. The grounds were beautiful, but the pool was too cold and hot tub was smokin hot. Overall, a beautiful location, nice place to stay with great amenities.

A short drive away from the grocery store and a few good restaurants. Very close to Anini Beach and Hanalei. The cooler, beach chairs, and umbrella were very nice to use. The beds were comfortable and the breeze in the evening cooled it down nicely. Our kids loved the pool and we spent time there every day. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Kauai.

It’s in a central Princeville location on the picturesque North Coast of Kauai. Even with the roosters crowing at all times during the day and night it was a wonderful unforgettable vacation experience. We spent 4 weeks in this condo. I would definitely come back.

We had a great stay at the condo. It was prefect for my husband, daughter, and I. Very clean and well appointed and the views were gorgeous. The grounds were very nicely kept and the location adjacent to the pool was perfect. No complaints whatsoever. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend to friends & family for sure. FYI if you have not traveled to Kauai before, I recommend that you bring some ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Chickens are part of island life and the roosters start to crow at the first hint of dawn. All part of the experience :)

Great layout, fully stocked with everything we needed for our one-week stay. Master bedroom was very spacious for adults, and upstairs loft perfect for two kids (ages 7 and 10). The Cliffs Resort property is beautiful and well-maintained and we found staff to be kind and helpful. Location is convenient for island activities and very close to Hanalei Bay shopping and restaurants. I’d come back in a heartbeat!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. Condo is clean and had everything we needed. There is a very nice cross breeze between all the windows that keeps the condo cool and there are many fans if the weather is hotter. We enjoyed using the Tommy Bahama beach chairs and umbrella on our beach excursions. We really loved being close to the pool where our kids ended up every afternoon. The sound out of pool waterfall was an added bonus. In the evening if there were people in the adult hot tub, we easily closed the sliding doors and they were gone. Great trip all around.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, this unit and property came as advertised: great location, well kept grounds, and a well appointed unit made for a great stay. The unit easily slept us and we enjoyed using the grills on-site as well as the pool. The beach chairs and umbrella made it very easy to explore nearby beaches without having to rent. Opportunities: the key pickup and drop off is weird. Right when you get into Lihue, you have to go by a random building and pickup physical keys- not key cards- and, when you check out, you have to drop them off to the same location. For our early flight, we had to do this at 4:00 am. They have an office onsite in Princeville so it’s unclear why you can’t just lock the keys in the unit or drop off at the property office. Also, beware that the doors to the units lock just like a hotel would when closed, unless you change this on the lock set itself with the door open. In their excitement, my kids let the door close behind them while moving luggage in and we locked the keys in the unit. The office was open, but they did not have any keys, nor were they helpful with what we should do to get in our unit. They expressed they’d page security to see if they had keys but not sure if they did. Surely, they would have a way to get in every unit, and, surely, this is not the first time this has happened. It’s clear by watching staff clean rooms when guests check out that they have the ability to get in units. Despite being unsure if they could help, we were thankful that security finally was able to locate a key and get us in.Also, the exercise room is quite small and only one or two people can use and there’s no weight bench. The pool was nice but also note that the adult hot tub directly below the unit is a real problem at night. Super loud. We would have to wait until after 10:00 pm to call security and they would clear the people out. Unclear why security wouldn’t do this proactively at 10:00 pm b

We did have issue with the kitchen appointments. The cookware and knives were actually terrible. It’s really not that difficult to provide adequate cookware and knives for a rental. Also there weren’t any spices provided, not even salt and pepper. We were on vacation in Kauai, so it was only an imposition. We will definitely return, and hopefully these few things will be remedied. Fantastic views!! Great location! Super friendly staff!! Thank you all!

If you are looking for more action, hot tub parties, and late night conversations, this is not your place. Princeville overall is not that place. We would love to come back and stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A wonderful stay in Kauai. Beautiful, comfy, 3rd floor condo w/actual ocean view! Amazing sunrises from primary bedroom. Loft w/2 QN beds are great for our grown boys. Lanais off family room and primary bedroom. Plenty of pots, pans, dishes, etc. There was even veg oil, salt/pepper, plastic wrap & zip lock bags. KVR made sure to have 4 beach chairs, beach towels, 2 body boards and cooler for the beach days for our family. Streaming services available on TV's (use your own accts). FYI-No Shampoo, Conditioner or Lotion provided in bathrooms, just Soap. Washer/Dryer a big plus-laundry detergent & dryer sheets provided. We love Kauai, The Cliffs (4th time staying here, 1st in this unit), but 5-301 is our new favorite.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo is clean and bright and open. It was a great place for two couples to share as the living spaces were separated nicely. King bed in master was very comfortable. I always wish there was somewhere to hang wet bathing suits and towels when back from the beach. The fridge needs to be balanced so it quits hitting the wall and the stove is very old, but serviceable enough. We utilized the beach chairs every day. Would be great to have a punch-code lock on the door to eliminate having a key. The ambiance of the pool area is beautiful. Some staff more helpful and honest than others.

So initially I was a bit nervous about 2 things I had read about this property both of which turned out great. 1- no AC... but as it turns out Princeville is very windy and there are cool breezes that come through constantly, enough to keep the apartment very comfortable. 2- I was worried about the hot tub and pool being right outside the master bedroom. With a little bluetooth speaker and a white noise app it covered the noise. We LOVED this property. The views are amazing. The two balconies are so fun to spend time on. The loft and vaulted ceilings make it feel very spacious and airy. The master is huge and the kitchen and bathrooms are up to date. There is hot water and good water pressure in the showers. The tub was handy for bathing our little ones. We loved spending time in the apartment but also made use of the hot tubs and pool. My kids played on the play ground and my son and I used the work out rooms and the tennis courts. Make sure to make use of the hammock and chairs overlooking the ocean. They have food trucks and local stores for groceries (*check in with the concierge if you plan to shop at Foodland. They were giving out a 10% off your shopping trip at Foodland coupon when we arrived). There was a full kitchen and I was able to make meals like I would at home. As far as spices go, the kitchen had only salt and pepper so you'll need to buy spices if you want them. When we went (end of March beginning of April 2022) they had a nice large Coleman cooler with wheels, 4 beach chairs, 1 large beach umbrella, 4 tennis rackets, 3 tennis balls, and 3 Boogie boards that worked great. The boogie boards are good but are showing wear. We took our own beach toys and snorkel gear and were glad we did as there weren't any available. We were told there was no pack n play but there ended up being one in the loft closet. Not knowing this, we had brought our own. Laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, Kleenex, paper towels, BandAids and toilet paper were provided enough for the 9 days we stayed. There was also a vacuum and broom. There were beach towels and regular towels—however, if you plan to buy towels, I'd recommend doing it at the beginning of your stay or bringing your own because we were constantly needing to wash and dry towels to keep up with our family needs. The couches and chairs and beds were comfortable. We loved the location and views. If we come back to Kauai we'd book this exact rental again. Thanks!

This condo was great, the location was as expected. It was very clean the beds are okay (typical of a vacation rental). Kitchen is stocked well enough. The condo had beach chairs and and a cooler to use, that was nice. The only bad part was that there is no electronic lock, you have to pick up keys in Lihue and then keep track of physical keys during your stay. It's not terrible but certainly a hassle and a bit outdated. I would stay here again it was set up great for a family with kids.

Note: Vacancy calendar is approximate. Visit the owner/manager's reservation site to verify your dates.
