We really enjoyed our stay here. We loved having a full view of the ocean and feeling the ocean breezes. This is an older, weathered condo with no AC, however the location is hard to beat. We were very comfortable with the ocean breeze, although we had the windows open the whole time. If you like a cold dark room with curtains drawn and AC cranked, then this isn’t for you. A short hike down a trail (.3 mi) takes you to a secluded beach only accessible to the property. Has a nice bay for swim/snorkel. The beach is sandy but the bay itself is rocky/coral. Can’t really ride any waves here, at least not in July. Condo is clean with plenty of towels and beach gear. We loved having a washer/dryer in the unit.

It started off bad right off the bat. We arrived on a Sunday, so it was after hours. We had a long flight & just wanted to relax. It was smoking hot in there...no a/c, (which I knew, but the reviews said it was no problem bc of the breeze. However, all the windows were shut when we arrived. No preparation for guests arrival) the lanai screen door was broken with a huge gap at the top allowing bugs inside, & we couldn't figure out the wifi info (which I later realized was my fault...it was in my email, but I thought it was a link to get the info, not realizing that it was right under.) We contacted the emergency # (bc that's all we had) & she was not happy with us for calling. After several back & forths, she finally gave us the password to the wifi & said someone would contact us the next day about the door. Well, nobody did. My husband called & left a message. We still received no response. (In addition, before we ever arrived, I received a text that we were arriving several days before we had it booked. I called & left a message. No response.) So, after 2 days of nobody calling us, I sent a very firm email bc not only was the lanai door an issue, one of the lamps was not working, the hairdryer plug was broken & dangerous, the housekeeper had left a wet, dirty rag on one of the chair cushions, & to top it off, the smoke detector was broken. Good luck with the shower knob. It Is backwards. After 4 days, they finally fixed things after I threatened to report them.

Our time at the condo was the highlight of the trip, so relaxing. We saw whales and dolphins from our lanai soon after we arrived. Incredible ocean views. Great kitchen. We loved the ocean view and hearing the waves crashing from comfy king-sized bed. We bbq’d almost every night. A perfect vacation. Thank you!

Comfortable, especially the bed. Everything we needed to cook meals. Good storage for 2 suitcases full of clothing. Views from dining area and lanai were soothing. Although end of the season, watched whales breach and play in the distance.

This property tuned out to be perfect for our trip to Kauai. The check in and information was clear. The site was gorgeous with an incredible view from both the bedroom and the main living room. The amenities were as described and we loved small touches such as the closet with beach chairs for use and beach towels- how thoughtful. We liked having a washer and drier as we did return muddy from hikes and kayaking - I had thoughtour stay was so short (4 days) that we likely did not need to do laundry but turned out to be an incredible asset not to pack those muddy clothes for the return flights. We also walked to the property beach where we watched the waves while a baby seal napped and snored away at the farther end of the beach- where else can you do that? Close to restaurants for the nights we did not wish to cook. Would happily stay again!

The unit was just as it was described. Beautiful, clean, and amazing view of the ocean. We would sleep with our bedroom window open to listen to the ocean every night.

The view was great and we spotted several whale water spouts in the ocean, seen from the dinning table! The sheets and pillow cases were clean but the bedspread, pillow and mattress had had a horrible stench of body odor! A true barbarian had stayed there who needed to be introduced to soap and water. We reported the situation to management but nothing was done. Maybe bring a can of Lysol spray with you!

we have stayed at Sealodge before but this was our first time in G4. The views from the dining table as pictured and the lanai were exquisite as was the sound of the breaking surf. The upgraded pool facility was nice, parking was easy, location and access to Princeville cannot be beat. The unit has had some upgrades, but it is a bit run down. One the stove burners did not work, and the some of the kitchen items were sparse (3 wineglasses total). It was nice to have beach chairs, towels, etc. for our use. The barbecue situation is inadequate, requiring charcoal and a walk down a rutted path but understandable given the wood shake buildings. Management was easy to work with. I think we will return, perhaps to another unit.

We stayed for our honeymoon and we were not dissapointed! Beautiful beach view right from our king size bed and breathtaking sunrises from just outside our back lawn. We wanted to be close to the Kalalau trail and we loved this location. Close to many amazing beaches and cute little towns. We grealty appreciated the additional items including the cooler, beach towels and beach chairs. The kitchen was well equiped for many home cooked meals. And the washer and dryer were a must for our 2 week stay. The groundskeeper, Zach, offered amazing nearby attraction tips. Overall, such a pleasant stay!

It exceeded our expectations. We loved our stay here at Sealodge G4. The view was incredible from the living room and bedroom!! It was so relaxing to see and hear the ocean breeze. However- be aware- there is no A/C. The weather was a high of 85 when we were there. There are several extra fans to put out to pull in the ocean breeze. We were never uncomfortably warm. There is beach gear to use for 2 people. There is a washer dryer in the condo which was nice for the wet beach clothes/towels during our stay. We would definitely come back!

Very much enjoyed our stay in this unit. Foremost, the view is spectacular both from the main room and the bedroom! There is green space and then an immediate drop-off to the ocean.
The unit is tastefully decorated. The unit is clean and well maintained. The bed is comfortable. The grounds are very nice. And again, what a view!!

Condo was shabby, drab (colors were brown and gray), not in good condition. View is great but the condition of the condo detracted from the experience. Furnishings were worn and uncomfortable, TV was broken (replaced after 2 days), outside light was inoperable (replaced after 2 days), stove and refrigerator were very old and worn, minor repairs were shoddy, locks on windows were broken and replaced with removable stops, interior paint was chipped and poorly applied, exterior shingles were missing, broken, worn and extremely unattractive, bedding was old and drab, bottom sheet did not fit mattress, dishes and silverware were mismatched leftovers, kitchen not well equipped, no beach towels provided (chair mats were represented to be towels), windows and screens were dirty and affected the view. Almost no decor or amenities. Pool was unavailable because of "renovation (per mgmt co.) but no work was underway. Lots of rules imposing obligations on lessees and suggesting we were inclined to be destructive and to be thieves. It is clear that very little money has been spent on the property in decades.

Outdated is a serious understatement. Shabby, drab, not well equipped. TV was broken (was replaced after two days), outside light was inoperable (was replaced after two days), no beach towels were provided (chair mats were referred to as beach towels), bedding was old and worn, bottom sheet did not fit mattress, furniture was old and tired, almost all locks on windows were broken and replaced with removal stops, windows and screens were dirty and affected the view, bedroom window curtain was repaired with electrical ties, dishes and silverware were mismatched leftovers, exterior shingles on building were broken, worn, and extremely unattractive, The pool was unavailable because it was "being renovated" (per management company) but no work was done on it in the week we were there, and there was no sign of ongoing work. Some appliances were newer, some very old (stove, refrigerator). The sparse decor was in drab browns and greys. Lots of rules that suggested we were inclined to be destructive and to be thieves. It is clear that very little money has been put into this property in decades. View was spectacular but the condition of the condo detracted from it. We would never lease this property again.

No way to wash pots or pans, or wipe down counters or clean anything.There were literally 2 kleenex tissues in our box with no backup box provided.No wine glasses, very little glassware at all.Cooking pans need to be replaced, very scratched.Pillows on the bed are terrible.Bathmats need to be replaced, they are gross.PROS:New bed mattress was very nice and comfortableBeach supplies provided were very convenient.

The condo is in Princeville, which is a nice community with easy access to everything. The Condo was well equipped and communication with the owner was easy. The view was as shown, with the gentle crashing of the waves constantly in the background. We did have problems with the local cable but even still there was access through the TV to many other channels. This was well worth the stay and would stay there again.

Has to be some of the best views in Kauai and a great place to stay on the North Shore. The unit was well-appointed including snorkeling gear, beach chairs, umbrella and cooler. Though there was only 1 tube for the 3 masks. Agree with other comments about reading light and nightstands in the bedroom and screen door off track. Though Management responded right away to reset the screen door.
Near many great beaches and hikes, including the famed (and challenging) Kalalau Trail to the falls.
Princeville has the amenities expected in a resort area - a great golf course which i had originally not planned to play, but was too gorgeous to pass up, so rented clubs and had a great time. Hanalei has a great beach town vibe and fun bars and local restaurants.
All in all, an excellent experience (bolstered by amazing weather for January).

We were worried about the lack of A/C but it wasn't really an issue. The image looking out at the ocean from the dining table really says it all. Amazing sunrise when I accidentally woke up and saw it.My only complaint was that the last day when we were away from the VRBO someone came in and "borrowed" the small cooler without us being there. Then after we officially checked out the mgmt said we'd taken the cooler and charged us for it. Only $25 but we never even used it...plus it meant someone else came into the property while we were renting it.

We had a great getaway to Princeville as always. And our condo was a big part of that experience. Thank you especially for giving us a couple extra hours on our check out day. The only suggestions we have is that it's probably time to let go of the additional COVID cleaning fee as there isn't really anything additional needed anymore. We did leave a list in the condo of a couple things that need some attention, but none of them were items that hindered our trip any.

Can't say enough about the beautiful views and the peaceful location. Everything in the house was exactly as detailed. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals and all the appliances were as described. It was nice to have beach chairs, towels and a beach umbrella to use as well. With it being August, it did get warm in the house but the fans and closing the blinds to the afternoon sun helped. There really isn't anything that we would recommend that needs to be changed with this great location and views. Will definitely recommend this rental and would come back. Really helped make our Kauai experience true paradise. Thank you!

07/24/2019 Disclaimer: We are an over 55 couple who have no ties with the Sealodge organization and are under no obligation to say anything positive about our stay. The good news is that we were extremely happy with our small (but comfortable) condominium. The photos on the website accurately represent how the condo is laid out. However, what you can't tell from the photographs is how comfortable the bed is or how pleasant the breeze feels. While the bathroom and kitchen are less than beautiful, they meet our basic needs. Another thing you can not tell from photos is how quite and tranquil the entire complex is (both day and night). Although you could occasionally hear footsteps coming from upstairs, the sound was never obtrusive. All total, we spent a little over a week in Kauai and can't wait to return. We would be more than happy to return to this amazing little bungalow.

My husband and I spent part of our honeymoon at the Sealodge and had a wonderful time. We watched the sunrise and sunset right from the lanai. We enjoyed cooking several meals at home while also going into the nearby town to explore. Our favorite was Sealodge Beach - we packed up a cooler and hiked down to do some swimming and relaxing in the shade. The property management was very communicative and easy to work with.

My husband and I recently rented Sealodge G4 for the Kauai stretch of our Hawaiian honeymoon. The condo itself was absolutely perfect for our needs and featured wonderful sunrises every morning outside the large bedroom window.
While we found ourselves dining out often, having the option to cook meals at "home" was great. We also took advantage of the in-home laundry machines which allowed us to pack less for our vacation overall.
The location is absolutely stunning! We never got sick of gazing out over the ocean and took time to trek down and explore Sealodge beach and the surrounding property. We spent a lot of time in Hanalei Bay, which was a short 10 minute drive from the property. And the nearby amenities at the Princeville shopping center made it easy to run out for meals, grocery items and banking needs.
I do want to note, most importantly, that the property management company was AWESOME. I received several emails leading up to our stay detailing the check-in process, specifics about the condo, and even about area road work being done. They also called the day we arrived to make sure we were able to get in and that everything met our expectations. I've rented a lot of places on VRBO but have never had customer service at this level. They were fantastic to work with and made our planning process a breeze.
I would highly recommend this condo to others, it's the perfect launch point for all you want to do and see on the beautiful north shore of Kauai. We hope to return in the future, and would definitely rent this spot again!

My husband and I vacationed in Kauai and Maui for our honeymoon and booked a few nights stay at Sealodge G4 for the Kauai stretch of our trip. The property was exactly as advertised—amazing, quiet oceanfront location, perfect for a couple.The condo itself was extremely comfortable and offered all of the amenities we were looking for. Princeville is also a perfect location for those looking to explore everything the north shore area has to offer. We even ventured all the way around the island to Waimea Canyon one day and were back in time for dinner in nearby Hanalei Bay.The property is close to the nearby surf town of Hanalei Bay, which we visited almost daily. The town has a cool, laid-back vibe and offers a lot of great dining options for any time of the day. We also did a Na Pali boat tour, which was an absolutely amazing experience.There are also many beaches along the north shore that we explored and are worth checking out. We found them for the most part uncrowded, and each offered a unqiue experience. The ones we liked best were Sealodge Beach (right near the condo) and Secret Beach. Unlike many of the beaches we visited in Maui, these beaches have a wealth of natural shade from the beautiful trees lining the beaches.The property was clean and well-maintained. The towels were well-stocked and there were even beach towels, beach chairs and snorkel gear. This provided us with essentials for exploring nearby Sealodge Beach (a definite gem).Kauai Kahuna Vacation Rentals provided us with a seamless renting experience. They provided all of the condo and check-in information well in advance. They even reached out to us via phone a few days before our trip and upon arriving to make sure we were all set and to answer any last minute questions. I've rented a lot of properties through VRBO and this company went above and beyond anyone else I've dealt with!I highly recommend this property to anyone travel

We knew the Sealodge property was dated when we booked unit G4. Upon arrival, we were a bit disappointed with the interior but the place grew on us especially the amazing views from the lanai. Overall, the unit is adequate and had most everything we needed. The countertops have been upgraded but not the cabinets. Kitchen has all the basic amenities. Beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, towels were available. Bed was comfortable. Stackable washer/dryer in unit was convenient. The views and ground level lanai are the strengths of this unit (along with the nene’s that frequently visited). I took a beautiful picture of the ocean and palm trees which is a great memory of our trip. We would definitely consider coming back to G4.

Initially we were disappointed with the interior of unit G4. The complex is dated (which we knew) & interior upgrades are somewhat hodgepodge like new countertops on old cabinets. But, the place grew on us the longer we were there. The views from the ground level lanai are hard to beat. Overall, the unit was adequate and comfortable. The kitchen has the basic amenities and the property management company was quick to react to a suggestion we had. The bed was comfortable. It was nice to have use of washer/dryer and beach equipment. The complex is quiet and peaceful and the chickens and nenes provided entertainment. We would consider staying here again.

We were celebrating an anniversary and wanted just some relaxing downtime, and this place was ideal. Down at the end of the road on a point, the view was great. Place was well-stocked with plates and silverware, laundry and laundry supplies, even beach chairs/umbrella/boogie board. Bed was king size and super-comfortable (downside: no room for bedside tables). The place was very clean, but could use a few updates in the kitchen and bathroom, etc to be called pristine. Nonetheless, we would recommend G4 to anyone looking for a really nice place with a beautiful view.
