This unit is very large with large living area and master bedroom. 2nd bedroom is tuked away in the back. View is spectacular and the deck is great for stargazing at night. So many stars with few lights in the Northend of the island. The noise from the waves is noticable with the windows open but can be closed out. Princeville has a long walking trail that borders the golf course and there are a few restaurants and shops nearby. It was a beautiful stay.

Aside from issues with code entry, we had a wonderful 28 days from mid-January to mid-February and did not want to leave. The unit is clean, nicely furnished, well equipped, and very comfortable. But the absolute star feature is the view, visible from most of the unit, but particularly striking from the outside lanai! It is in some ways ever-changing, depending on the time of day and the weather, but always spectacular. As is Kauai. There is beauty everywhere you look. As somewhat physically limited seniors, we could not take full advantage of the beaches and the many recreational activities that Kauai has to offer, but that did not limit our enjoyment of being there. I particularly enjoyed daily walks along Ka Haku Rd, adjacent to the beautiful Makai Golf Course, passing very friendly people and watching nenes, egrets, albatrosses, wild chickens, and birds of all kinds amidst the gorgeous scenery.
For any issues that may arise, there is a local manager and the owners are also actively engaged and responsive to any issues or suggestions. We highly recommend!

We really loved our condo especially the patio and the
gorgeous view. The kitchen was nice. The dishes and coffee cups could use a good updating. The air conditioning worked great. A few of the days we had to listen to construction. Overall, this was a fantastic property.

Absolutely stunning ocean views of the Na Pali coast with beautiful sunsets from the balcony! Puu Poa 211 is very clean, modern, comfortable, and has all the amenities you need for your stay. We loved the adventurous short hike down to Hideaways Beach for fantastic swimming and snorkeling with giant sea turtles! The perfect spot to reach multiple north shore beaches for surfing, hiking, boating, and relaxing fun! Ronald was very responsive with any questions prior to our stay. Highly recommended!!!

If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful beaches within walking distance or a short drive. The condo had everything we needed: a coffeemaker, beach towels, a cooler, beach chairs, and all of the kitchen items needed.
The view from the balcony is amazing and we were able to enjoy pink, golden skies in the morning and breathtaking sunsets in the evening.
I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Kauai. I can’t say enough great things about this condo. Ron has excellent communication, there was everything we needed, location was perfect, and the condo was spotless. I’m so happy we found this place.

The best thing about this property is the amazing view, directly west so you get an incredible sunset every night. It's also walking distance to Hideaways Beach, the best beach we visited on the island. There are some pros and cons to this condo. Pros: Very spacious (two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living rooms, large shower in main bath), very clean, we never had an issue finding parking near the unit, there's an AC unit both in the main living area and primary bedroom, ample beach towels, washer/dryer in unit and detergent is provided, and of course the location/view. Cons: Although clean, the unit is somewhat dated. The listing does not have pictures of the older second bathroom and frames out some of the more worn bits of the condo (mirrored closets in main bedroom, e.g.). It just didn't match my expectations based on the pics or other reviews, but once I adjusted, it was fine. The mattress in the main bedroom is not very comfortable. Overall, though, we had a great stay.

The Puu Poa property could not have been better situated on the island—a direct view off our lanais of Bali Hai, we overlooked the reef at Hidden Beach, and the condo was so thoughtfully appointed; the owner thought of everything a guest might want.
Ron was also a great owner and host. We ran into an issue, which he was very responsive on. He also gave us several wonderful tips to make our stay even more enjoyable.

Better than the pictures! The condo was spacious, clean and had the most amazing views!!!! We enjoyed breakfast on the gorgeous patio every day. The kind extras like the beach chairs and boogie boards were so appreciated by my family. We loved every moment in Princeville and getting to stay in this condo made it all the better.

Beautiful views, but condo needs some TLC…. Plants on patio dead….. bathroom cabinets need touch up. I’ve rented other condos in the complex for the same price which are really attended to for a great experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this condo. The view is amazing from the both the large lanai and throughout the condo. The interior is open, comfortable and has everything you need - including beach chairs, beach towels and a small cooler. We would definitely stay here again.

We have stayed in this unit many times. Absolutely wonderful each and every time. Beautiful view, watched whales frolic as we stood on the lanai. Perfect location and super easy arrival and departure. Why would we stay anywhere else?

What an amazing property. Exactly as listed, the view far exceeds the pictures. The area is amazing. When looking in Princeville you'll see several properties. This property is the best in the area at this price point. Best view, best space, best location!

Our family of 3 spent a week at this condo at the end of August. Super clean unit. Excellent and quick communication with the host, who went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed throughout our stay. Everything was very comfortable, with the lanai (and that view!) as the highlight. We took every opportunity to enjoy the sunset with dinner and had plenty of relaxation time out there. And when we ventured to beaches, there were plenty of towels, beach chairs, an umbrella, etc.
Things to know: The location is fantastic as far as being close to the water but it is necessary to drive almost everywhere with the exceptions of the Puu Poa and Hideaways beaches and Queen's Bath (it’s about 5 minutes to Foodland/Princeville Center by car). Also not sure how long it will go on, but there's some renovation/construction going on in the unit right next to the pool and there was a day we cut our pool time short due to the noise. There’s also no bathroom at the pool (this isn’t a big deal but when traveling with a kid it’s always good to know where the closest bathroom is located).
We loved our time on Kauai – this was a wonderful place to close out our trip. Mahalo!

The condo is wonderful. Waking up every morning to see the expansive view of the ocean from the deck was incredible - and then watching the sun set and dusk settling on Bali Hai - I think it would be hard to find a better view in Kauai. The condo spacious, perfrectly furnished - and stocked with everything we needed for our 5 night stay. Everything worked perfectly. The owner and the property manager were both very good at communication. We had a wonderful stay. And we have reserved the unit 211 for our visit to Kauai next year as well.

We love Pua Poa and this was one of the best places we have stayed in this property. Very clean, spacious, air con, and VIEWS. We would recommend some better beach chairs but that is a minimal suggestion. Overall great place.

When deciding between staying at the Princeville Resort or at Puu Poa, what put Puu Poa over the top was the insane panoramic view, the full kitchen, and overall amount of space for just a little more than the price of a oceanfront room at the Princeville Resort. It has a pool and if you want to go the beach, Hideaway Beach is right below the condominium complex, albeit with a slightly difficult path down the cliff to get to it. If you’re staying on the North Shore to have easy access to Haena State Park, this location is ideal. Just make sure you make reservations to enter the park as soon as possible. It’s about 45 minutes to an hour away from anything on the East coast so plan accordingly. Dining options required driving to Hanalei Bay or the Princeville shopping center, but neither were too far for convenience. If you’re the more adventurous type and want to go out and explore the island everyday, this was a great home base for me. Even if you just want to sit on the balcony, relax under the sun, and enjoy the view, but don’t care about the other pampering stuff you can get at a resort, this is also the place for you.
