This was our first stay in Princeville, we usually stay in Hanalei Bay. We liked the fact that we were close to the grocery and other stores, the farmers market, and a good area for running and walking. We had hoped beach access would be a little easier: Hideaways was a hike with rope rails down a steep trail and Pu'u Poa, off 1 Hotel property was a long walk down 75-100 cement steps. Queens bath was also walkable, but again a steep trail down and back. The drive to Hanalei Bay was 5-10 mins though, where we spent most of our beach time. Princeville does get you onto Kuhio Hwy sooner to get to various activities on the South side.
The condo itself was pretty good: Quiet, with a comfortable bed, good size rooms, nice lanai for morning coffee, AC. The bedroom is on the parking lot side and altho there were blinds, they did not block out the light very well for sleeping -- I would suggest installing a rod with dark curtain. It was pretty well stocked with necessities, but I did call the manager for a (missing) cooler and she brought one to us the next day. I was surprised, with there being a glass dining room table, that there were no placemats. Also cloth napkins would be a good touch. If you walk to the end of the cart path... marvelous spot for sunsets :-) Overall, it was a good stay!

The condo itself is great. Plenty of space, better than most pullout bed, good restrooms, nice balcony(enjoyed watching some bad golf). You can easily walk to The One hotel and use any of their facilities. The queens bath is walkable and the golf course is right there. We enjoyed sunsets on the golf course a few nights and it was magical. There is no one onsite to help you if you need something. We locked ourselves out and had to wait until late in the night for a woman to drive from the east side and help us.

We love Kauai especially Princeville and Hanalei. The unit was very clean. The property is a bit older built in 1992. However, the grounds are immaculate. The pool is very clean, and the amenities are as well. A lot of effort is put into the keeping of the grounds. We even saw an albatross outside our patio on the first day. The interior of this unit is spotless and very aesthetically pleasing. The living room is very comfortable and clean. The bedroom is well appointed and comfortable. I loved this unit and would return. I usually stay in newer properties, but this property is as good as or better than any new property I've ever rented. We own a beach house in Florida and this felt like I was at home, clean and comfortable!

This was the best condo we’ve stayed at in Kaui. It was very clean and equipped with everything including a very well-stocked kitchen. The lanai is great with a nice view of the golf course. A very quiet area that is close to both Princeville Center for shopping and the beautiful 1Hotel. Hoping to stay there again!

My husband and I had a great time at the condo. The unit was very tidy and clean, and our on-island host Lyra was very responsive and helpful. We felt so comfortable there it was difficult to leave. I highly recommend watching the birds from the balcony, although it was a bit rainy toward the end to enjoy the patio. Just a note to bring your own shampoo / conditioner - some small soaps are provided.

The unit was perfect. It had everything we needed for our stay. The neighborhood is very quiet. The pool area and clubhouse has adequate seating, books, and a few dvds for guest use. Lots of parking.
Great views for sunset just a short walk away.
Hanelai beach is 11 minutes away and Anini is 15 minutes. Both unique beaches. W
Walking trail into town , local restaurants and Foodland.
There are two pairs of albatrosses that are directly across from the deck . The fledglings are under the bushes and parents are always close by.
Definitely returning, but we will extend our stay.
Thank you for sharing you wonderful unit with us.
Aloha

We stayed for 10 days and are very happy with our stay. The unit is just across the parking lot from the shared pool/hot tub/grilling area which makes it very convenient. The unit was clean, and the AC was appreciated (many rentals in the area do not have A/C, so I’d recommend you inquire about it if you’re shopping around). The common areas of the condo development are meticulously maintained by a full time on site caretaker named Chris who keeps everything spotless and looking great.

Wonderful condo and attentive property manager (we had an issue with the shower drain and they sent someone our right away to fix it)! The place is cozy and the bed is very comfortable! The view on the patio was beautiful and the surrounding area had many walking paths. Also, so nice to have a washer/dryer in the unit. We enjoyed the boogie boards, chairs, and umbrella while on the beach. It’s a quiet area and the pool was right out front if we didn’t want to go far. Perfect for two! Thank you!

I could not be more pleased with my decision to stay in Emmalani Condos for my first visit to Kauai. The condo felt like a model home; meticulous. And the golf course community surrounding it, breathtaking! It was also so helpful to have a washer and dryer available for use. Two minor notes; if you enjoy coffee, bring some with you. The filters and coffee maker were provided, but coffee was not. Also, my mobile phone service was temperamental in the Bedroom and there was not an alarm clock. I purchased on as I had an early flight I did not want to miss. I hope to return soon!

Perfect spot for the three of us (mom and two big kids). Clean, bright and comfortable--my 6-foot tall son slept on the pull out sofa bed and said it was good. It was nice to have access to a nice washer and dryer, especially after muddy hikes. Ideal location for exploring everything the north shore has to offer. We'd definitely stay again.

This condo was absolutely perfect — from the location in Princeville to the decor to the quick replies back from the host to all of the amenities to the singing birds on the back deck every morning! We had such a lovely time and would give this place more than 5 stars if we could. Amazing!!

The condo is perfect for a really lovely stay in north Kauai. It’s filled with light, space, amenities, great beaches within walking distance, food stores nearby and close enough to the vibrant town of Hanalei to make evenings out a possibility. I’d love to come back one day.

If you love the north shore and are looking for a quiet and super comfortable home away from home, this is it! The condo is super clean, nicely furnished and offers plenty of space to stretch out. Close walking distance to hideaways beach and queens bath. Easy booking and check in/ check out process...we love Emmalani court and will definitely stay there again.

This condo was amazing. Beautiful grounds. There was a walking path across the street. We were walking distance to Hideaway Beach and Queens Baths which were very cool to see especially Queens Baths. The condo was very clean, open and airy. There was a second full bathroom that came in handy when our daughter stayed with us. I also loved having morning coffee on the balcony. I would highly recommend this condo.

Property was very clean and in a great location. Washer and Drier was great and kitchen was stocked well with everything we needed. The main bedroom has AC so be aware the rest of the house was not. A couple of suggestions would be more beach chairs and a few boogie boards.
Unit did have one beach chair and one boogie board. Our friends stayed nearby and their unit had several chairs and things for the beach. Nice walking path along the golf course located right next door.
Another nice feature was the pool and hot tub which were very clean. The common area had a couple of Weber grills, which i wish i would have known about as I don't think its in the description. Parking is super close to unit. Unit is on the second floor as well. I would stay here again no problem.

We had an amazing stay in Emmalani Court 423! The description was accurate and better than what we were expecting. We were welcomed with a nice card from the manager who offered assistance if we needed any. The location is walking distance to Hideaway Beach and Puu Poa Beach and a short drive to Anini Beach and Hanalei. The condo was recently renovated and all the furniture was new and very comfy and all the kitchen utensils, pots/pans, etc. were also new. The couch in living room also pulls out to a bed in case you have a 3rd guest. The pool and spa are right down the steps and they were in excellent condition and rarely used, so we took advantage of the spa most nights. There is also 2 Weber grills in the pool area should you want to bbq. Would definitely recommend this condo to friends and family!
