Our lovely Nihilani Home is situated ideally in the center of the complex, far away from the noise of Ka Haku Road and just steps to the swimming pool and barbecues. And good news, there is now wireless at the pool! This 2,200 SF, 2 story home has undergone a renovation, is beautifully decorated, and is deliciously air conditioned providing respite from those humid north shore days. Beautiful Pua Poa Beach, overlooking Hanalei Bay, is 1.2 mile walk via 1 Hotel Hanalei for a restorative morning walk and swim. Or 1.5 mile walk in the other direction, via the Westin Resort, brings you to Wyllie's Beach, at the end of the 2 mile long Anini Beach.

The moment you walk through the front door you feel at home. The living room is inviting and comfortable, the kitchen is open with stainless appliances, a spacious Island with counter seating adjacent to the formal dining table, and the bedrooms upstairs are a delightful haven for you and your family.

There are 3 lanai's. The first floor lanai is directly off the living area, a perfect place to enjoy your cup of coffee in the morning, or a glass of wine in the evening. The sound of the breeze through the palm trees is so relaxing and a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. The other 2 lanais are private, one off the Master bedroom with a beautiful view of the pool, and the 2nd bedroom lanai has a street view and just a glimpse of the ocean.

Downstairs is the living/dining area, with plenty of room for everyone, comfortable furniture, and a 60" Flat Screen Smart TV. It is the perfect setting to relax after a long day in the sun. The dining table seats 6 with additional seating at the spacious Island in the kitchen. The kitchen has granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and is fully equipped with everything you would need to create a meal for you and your family. There is direct access to the single car garage and a half bath rounds out the downstairs.

Upstairs, the Master bedroom suite is very large with a king size bed, 48" flat screen Smart TV, and a relaxing window seat nook which can convert to another sleeping area. The en suite bathroom has double sinks, a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. And of course don't forget that private lanai.

The 2nd bedroom suite consists of a queen size bed, direct access to the shared Jack & Jill bathroom and has it's own private lanai.

The third bedroom comes with a queen bed and shared access to the Jack & Jill Bathroom. All bedrooms are well appointed and comfortable, with spacious closets.

There is a fourth room upstairs, which contains a large twin/full bed with a trundle bed underneath and a 42" flat screen Smart TV.

A 2nd floor laundry room with full size washer and dryer is directly across from the den area.

This home comes complete with extra linens, towels, beach towels, hair dryer, iron & ironing board, in room safe, and of course free wireless high speed internet.

Right outside the front door you will find a beautiful pool with waterfall and 2 Jacuzzi's.

A feature unique to Nihilani that affords easy parking and access to the condo is the garage parking for 1-2 mid size or smaller: car, SUV or minivan. To pro-actively avoid surprises, garage space is limited to: 1 midsize or smaller SUV or mini van with 1 standard or smaller car. Renting either 1 standard or 2 smaller cars is suggested, to avoid tricky, guided maneuvering required to park 2 vehicles in the garage. Please note, there is no parking available outside of the garage or elsewhere in Princeville. Yes, space is at a premium on this small island in the middle of the Pacific. :) Garage is stocked with Beach Chairs and Beach Toys to enjoy during your stay.

So book your stay and come home to the perfect relaxation destination, and enjoy the Aloha!

Please be aware that VRBO has a service fee. We have no way of altering or deleting this fee, as it is added by them automatically. It will be part of the quote.

Nice & spacious, very clean, plenty of space/beds for 5 adults & 2 teens. Abundance of beach toys, chairs, snorkel gear, beach towels & water shoes. A/C worked great. Only minor annoyance was no working ice maker in freezer so we bought bag at Foodland right down the street. Also be mindful of extra cash cleaning fee due upon arrival when figuring in total cost. Would highly recommend & stay again! We loved our first family trip to the islands!

Renters need to be aware when comparing properties that this property does not list cleaning fee in the VRBO pricing details which is against VRBO policy. It is an unfair advantage when comparing properties on total price per night. For a 3 night stay, cash cleaning fee on arrival raised the nightly rate significantly. After I submitted booking request, I received a VRBO email that reservation was confirmed with message from the host embedded in email. I mistakenly thought any cleaning fees were built into nightly rate. Rental agreement was not received via email but does appear in the chat feature which I overlooked. The day before my departure to Hawaii, I received a text w/ "reminder" that cleaning fee was due in cash upon arrival & was sent copy of rental agreement that was acknowledged electronically. I did miss this agreement copy in VRBO chat and since I did not want to be without a place to stay I complied with terms. I didn't understand the need to place cash in garage box within 24 hrs unless someone was going to access the property while we were still there- which made me uncomfortable. Overall the condo was nice, well-stocked, spacious, and clean. The bed mattress in the hallway alcove was very uncomfortable (thin and metal coils could be felt) so the plan for 13yr old to stay there did not work as she reported immediately and we had to concur. Being a short 3 day stay, we did not utilize the amenities (pool/spa) of condo.

This property had everything you need and more! Comfortable beds, beach towels, fully stocked kitchen, essentials. We loved the snorkel gear, surf boards, boogies-and bikes too! The communication was clear and thorough. The property was clean and incredibly comfortable. We loved the pool after a day at the beach. We can’t wait for our next trip!

We loved this home. Beautifully decorated, huge kitchen, beautiful bedrooms. Lots of space. Air conditioning worked awesome. The one thing I missed was an outdoor dining lanai for our family. There is a dining table on the first floor in the kitchen / living room space. But even though we missed the outdoor table, we loved the home and would return. Thank you!

Our family of 6 included my husband and I, plus older kids ages 16 - 20. The condo is clean, well stocked and much larger than it looks in the pictures. Great location with lots to do within walking distance, including golf, disc golf (which the kids enjoyed), Queen's Bath, turtle cave, and Hideaway beach. Short drive to Hanalei. Would definitely stay here again!

First week, we were a family of 8. 2nd week we we’re down to 6 Found property easily with directions provided and was in a great location in princeville. We were a little concerned about parking as we were limited to only parking in small double garage and 2 compact cars wouldn’t get us and luggage from airport. We rented a dodge mini van and dodge 7 passenger suv. It was a very tight fit but we made it work..(had couple spotters when parking for the night.) property manager responded quickly by text when we had questions. Pool and hot tub(seemed to be having issues with heater on hot tub)were great and had the right amount of shade/sun. Would definitely stay again if we would come as a larger group:)

Nice place for 3 generations to relax and enjoy this beautiful island. Pool was great for the grandkids, and complex was quiet at night. Neighbors are friendly, house is well equipped, and beach toys are plentiful. It was the perfect setup and host was easy to communicate with.

This location was perfect for myself, partner, and 3 family members. There was plenty of room for us to have our own space. We enjoyed many meals around the table, relaxing on the lanai, and time at the pool. Princeville, Kilauea, and Hanalei are nearby communities that are fun to explore.

everything as detailed in listing and as promised. if anything, property manager "under-promised" regarding all of the beach toys, and gear that was available. beach chairs, snorkel gear, beach umbrella, coolers, boogie boards, etc. etc. I've never seen so much recreational stuff available at a VRBO. So that was a great surprise.

Very spacious for our family of 7. It was a great location and everything was clean and well stocked with items like beach stuff, spices, shampoo/ conditioner , etc etc. It was our first time to Hawaii and we had such a great experience. Very quiet neighborhood too, always felt safe. Hope to visit again T



December 2023
We were very happy with the condo. Lots of space for us and our 2 little kids. Actually had too much space but it was really nice. Very close to the pool which we went to daily. We were glad to have the A/C at night and then would turn it off each morning as we didn’t really need it during the day plus we were gone most days adventuring. Would definitely recommend this nice property!

EXACTLY AS IN THE PHOTOS. VERY CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, WELL EQUIPPED WITH EVERYTHING FROM THE KITCHEN TO THE BEACH CHAIRS, SNORKELS, FINS. FELT VERY MUCH AT HOME. ONE NEGATIVE: THE POOL IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT RATHER SMALL , FOR A PROPERTY THIS SIZE AND FULL OF SMALL, CHILDREN SCREAMING AND SPLASHING WITH JOY AND HAPPINESS, WITH HAPPY PARENTS AND GRANDPARENT. I WISH THERE WAS A SECOND SWIMMING POOL ON THE PROPERTY FOR ADULTS ONLY.

From the booking process, the communication with the property manager, easy check in, the great location (safe), and the beautiful home, what a great experience. My family, friends, and I really enjoyed our stay. Very well stocked with kitchen supplies. Beach toys, snorkel gear, chairs (6), boogie boards, etc were in the garage for borrowing!! Andrew (property manager was awesome!!)

This is a great home in a great location. Princeville is close to great beaches and cute towns. We enjoyed how close the home is to the pool. The neighborhood is very quiet and well kept. The landscape creates a well manicured tropical paradise. We enjoyed how the garage is stocked with many beach-going supplies - chairs, coolers, floats, snorkel gear, bike. Our only issue was that our rental van, a large Ford Transit, did not fit in the garage. It was very stressful. The HOA is very strict about parking. The property manager couldn't offer any solutions and was rather curt. Fortunately a different property employee brought us a pass that allowed us to stay overnight in a guest spot. It was frustrating that the manager of this property didn't know or didn't offer this solution. Luckily it all worked out and we had a fantastic vacation.

From the time we arrived and found the property to be immaculate, through our entire stay we throughly enjoyed this property. It's situated for easy access to shopping and beaches, yet is in a very quiet neighborhood. The beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed for an exceptional base during our Kauai stay.

Needed several messages to get our check in code (day before our arrival which was a little nerve wracking) but after that everything was smooth. We really loved the property!!! Spacious and comfortable and can really sleep 10 people. Well equipped with swimming gear, snorkels, beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels, etc. for treks to the local beaches. Close to some good restaurants in nearby Hanalei. Check out Kalypso Restaurant in Hanelei...you won't regret it. Its very casual but the food is more on the gastropub side. Everything we had was very good and the drinks are outstanding. Master bedroom is huge with a walk-in closet and large reading nook. You can stay in sunny Poipu but Princeville is absolutely gorgeous and so lush and tropical compared to anywhere southeast even just 10 miles away. Pool is small but pretty and there is a hot tub that can fit 8 people comfortably. Good views of the pool area from the master balcony but no views of the nearby stunning mountains or ocean. That would have placed this property over the top. Still overall very pleased with the property and highly recommend it.

My family of 6 had a great time at this property. It was clean, spacious and well stocked with everything you need to cook meals, spend a day at the beach or just relax. This was our first time staying on this side of the island. We enjoyed every minute of it. Also wanted to give a shout out to the property management, specifically Oksana. She went out of her way to help when the ice maker quit working. Thank you! We will stay again!

Property was very clean and very relaxing! We went on walks and saw a few people in the neighborhood but on a whole we felt like we were the only ones there. Location was close to a cute town square area where the post office, bank and cute shops and grocery store. We stopped there every morning for ice water and snacks and occasionally we had a meal in that area. Loved the restaurant “The Spot” had organic local foods and offered gluten free items. We hung out in Hanalei and loved it there. The house was wonderful and the location made our stay amazing! I hope to come back and I would love to stay here again!

Our family of 5 were very comfortable in this well- maintained, nicely decorated condo. The condo has an extra nook (curtained off) with a daybed that fit our youngest nicely so everyone had their own room. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook some meals. It rained a lot while we were here, but the bright condo felt sunny, and there are three covered lanais to enjoy the breezes. The owners provide plenty of beach chairs, snorkel gear and if you have little ones, loads of sandcastle building toys! The condo complex is well maintained and is centrally located in Princeville. There is a pretty pool area with a tucked away hot tub. Sadly for us the pool was closed for half of our stay for maintenance. But with all the beaches nearby we had plenty of water time. The property manager was very responsive and helpful. Thank you for sharing this fabulous home!

We booked a last minute vacation to Kauai and the rental properties were few. We lucked out on the this townhouse in a few different ways. First, it was available for the full dates we needed. Second, owners were quick in responding to all our questions. Third, when we arrived the place was actually bigger then we expected and fit our family of 6 perfectly. The home was clean and most everything we needed for the beach. I’d recommend looking into renting or purchasing surf boards or boogie boards for the week since the ones here are mostly broken, but it was nice having beach chairs, sand toys and towels already provided. This property does have a nice pool area but given we came for the beach we didn’t spend much time there. Princeville is a bit of a drive from the airport, and as far as food options go, there’s not too much close by or most places close at 6pm. We stopped at the Walmart in Lihue to get groceries and snacks with intentions of eating out once a day. This worked well for our group. Hanalei Bay and the small town is a great area especially if you luck out with sunny weather. Not too mention it’s a fairly short drive from this location. We would recommend this property and would stay here again!

We loved the stay! The neighborhood association does a great job of keeping the yard area along with the pool area. The house is newer with a clean new feel. I thought it was nice that bikes and beach supplies were available to use. We will be staying again.

This place was perfect for pur group of 7. Very clean and the location couldn't of been any better. After our daily excursions we would come back and relax in the hot tub! Would totally recommend! Mahalo for the ohana memories!

My adult sons, daughter-in-law and 3 grandchildren stayed for 10 days in this beautiful property. It’s very clean, quiet, spacious with a large living and dining area, it had 3 great bedrooms and my grandsons loved sleeping in the alcove. We cooked in the kitchen every day, had coffee on the patio every morning, and took advantage of the pool and hot tub most every evening. When we first arrived the water heater was not working properly so we called Andrew and he responded within the hour and fixed it. He was prompt, friendly and suggested some local eating establishments which we enjoyed. We had a great time and will stay here again when we return to Kauai.

This was by far the nicest and cleanest condo we have ever stayed at. It had nearly everything you could ever need! Beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, everything you could think of The layout is ideal for families with children, the pool is incredible. We had a FANTASTIC TIME! Will be returning to Nihilani again!

Wonderful, clean, property. Very quiet neighborhood. Don't expect to play your Bon Jovi Greatest Hits album on full tilt without having some complaints! Pool was nice, along with the hot tub. Our age group was mid twenties to mid forties, so we wouldve enjoyed the hot tub use past the 9:00PM closing time, but totally understood the rules. The house looked like it would be small from the outside, but was HUGE inside. Perfect layout. Would definitely rent the house again if....when....we go back.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The condo is more spacious than appears in the photos. There was room to spread out and we loved the nook with a day bed in the master for reading! There are several beaches nearby within walking distance (if you don't mind walking), or by car. Love the quietness of the complex and the proximity to the pool area. We'd definitely stay here again!

The home was lovely and clean. We enjoyed all the extras we found in the garage such as a cooler, beach chairs and umbrellas. We ran into a few issues with appliances, but Andrew was able to correct the problems in a timely manner. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool area in the evenings. Would love to return!

Perfect for for our 2 families of 8ppl and was such a comfortable home away from home. Beautifully oversized kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms. Wonderful to communicate with and provided us with so many helpful tips and advice on the area. Check in and check out was a breeze. Instructions were simple to follow. The condo is really close to the pool. We appreciated the full-sized shower items, laundry supplies, and beach supplies. Would highly recommend! Will definitely book this place if or when we return!!

The minute we walked inside, we knew it would be a grand week. This property is perfect for adults or families. With three bedrooms and a den with a daybed and trundle there is private space for kids and adults. It was very clean, bright and has 3 separate porch areas. This is one of the best VRBO properties we have ever stayed in.

Property was clean, well appointed and perfect for our family of five. The property management company was very responsive. The property has everything needed in the kitchen, laundry / linens, and toys (boogie boards, snorkel gear, etc) to make for a great vacation.

This is our 4th time staying in this rental property. It is 100% accurate for the listing description and feels like home the minute you walk through the doors. This property is fully equipped, included laundry detergent, dryer sheets, toilet paper and paper towels, and everytime we’ve stayed here there have been condiments, seasonings and even water bottles in the fridge! The property is well maintained, has new flooring downstairs and on the stairs, has WiFi and everything you need for the beach (plenty of beach towels, umbrellas, chairs, a cooler, snorkel gear, water shoes, sand toys, etc.). My family recommends this property to anyone we know who is coming to Kauai. It’s well appointed, very clean and like i said, i truly feel at home. We come to Kauai frequently so we feel like locals now. We always make a stop for ice cream at Lapperts in the Princeville shopping center, shave ice at the Wishing Well in Hanalei and have a nice meal at The Bistro in Kilauea. Pats Taqueria is a yummy food truck at the Hanalei Pier which is nice for lunch so you don’t have to leave the beach. Other than that we visit the many beaches in the Princeville and Hanalei areas and hopefully make it down to kee beach for some snorkeling. My son loves the hike down to queens bath and you can always see plenty of turtles along this coastline hike. We love this property and wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Coming home after a day at the beach and playing in the pool for an hour or so before making dinner is the icing on the cake when you rent this property. We can’t recommend it enough!!

Our 2 week vacation here was great. The townhome was clean, spacious and well-stocked with everything you need. Booking was easy and the owner provided us with a complete information package and was very accommodating to our needs. We had no problems during our stay but contact information is provided if any problems arise. The complex grounds were well maintained and there was a nice pool and BBQ area. The Princeville area and the island itself is great with lots of nice beaches and site-seeing. Our favorite attractions were the Walmea Canyon and the Hanalei and Anini beaches (both good for young kids). I have already recommended this property to some friends and we hope to be back again soon.

We just returned from a vacation at this condo. It was gorgeous, clean and had everything we needed. We were a group of two families, both with 2 small children. The condo came equip with tons of space, everything we needed and more for the beach (coolers, chairs, umbrella, even pool toys) and we enjoyed every bit of our stay. We did tons of laundry and it was nice that small things like dish soap, toilet paper and laundry soap was provided. I would recommend this condo to anyone wanting to stay in Princeville.

This was our 2nd X to the island of Kaua'i. Mahola for renting out your condo. We were 8 adults 18 to 48. The condo was plenty spacious for all of us. My husband and I enjoyed the master suite w tv and huge ensuite...as we retired earlier for the evening from the young folk. I appreciated the tub. There are 3 tv's to this unit. The condo was very clean. Loved the simple beachy theme and wall prints. Tons of towels. Extra bed sheets & blankets. Washing machine and dryer came in good use. Kitchen well supplied. Although there was no tea pot or electric frying pan (my personal preferences) but we made do. My husband and I did find the king mattress probably needed to be flipped as we found it was unevenly softer up top than by the feet. Otherwise everything else was just lovely. The condo is perfectly situated between Anini and Hanalei beaches and close to Hanea beach. Close to mini golf in Kilauea...a nice way to spend an evening. Hiked Na Pali as well as Queens Bath 'mud walk', in eventually bare feet was a true hawaiian experience...glad we did it! Princeville food store has everything you need. We did shop safeway and walmart first but prices I found were not that much higher. Sign up with your phone number and get the discounts. We did use the squeeze bottle condiments left in fridge such as the salad dressings, ketchup, mustard etc. And we left some of our own such as honey and a full sugar. We love the north shore and appreciated using the beach equipment umbrella, 4 chairs, boogie boards (we found a lost board so now there are 4), coolers for food, extra beach towels and snorkles (although we brought our own). The unit is situated in the middle of the complex which was nice so no traffic noise. Close to pool area which again was lovely and we utilized. 2 cars fit well in garage. I felt we were staying at a 5 star resort. This unit was a big part of the success of our holiday. I would highly recommend this condo, so worth it!!! I would even come back here and stay again. What a wonderful experience. Many MAHOLA 🌺

Juli takes a personal interest in keeping her guests happy. Little things like detailed welcome email with all the right pointers. Keeping snorkeling gear, bikes and boogie boards, etc made us feel really good. Princeville is also an awesome place to stay as there is a lot of action close by.
