Visit Princeville, Hanalei and beyond:
One of the most beautiful crescent shaped beaches in the world: Hanalei Bay for sunbathing, long walks, jumping off the pier, surfing, boogie boarding, people watching. Hanalei town has a great small town feel with unique dining and shopping. Ask me for advice on where to dine.

Take in the magnificent views with a drive to the end of the road: Ke'e Beach; totally worth it.

Like to Hike? Okolehao, Hanakapiai or Kalalau will get your fix.

Limahuli Botanical Garden; become a member if you like: history, plants, and local culture.

Kilauea Lighthouse: gorgeous views surround this historic site, a bird sanctuary as well. Picture worthy! Then eat lunch in Kilauea town at Kai Bar, The Bistro, or Kilauea Fish Market or grab and go a picnic lunch at North Shore Market and take it to the beach.

The Princeville Shopping Center is a short drive or walk away; you can get all you need in groceries, gifts, as well as restaurants and bars within 1 mile of this condo.

Makai Golf Course is a 1/4 mile away.

A 2-mile walking/jogging path that meanders alongside the golf course with a stunning backdrop of mountain views, which is also the view from the master bedroom, and downstairs lanai.

Visit 1 Hotel for fine dining, spa treatments and views from the bluff above Hanalei Bay.

You won't be disappointed with this complex, or this unit. Well appointed and comfy after a long day of adventures on the north shore and beyond.

It was well- stocked, clean, conveniently located, and had everything our family needed to make for a relaxing and easy stay! Traveling with kids can often feel like more work than vacation, but this house provided all the conveniences. It felt like home away from home.

Property was excellent in every way. Don’t worry about the garage unless you’ve got a big vehicle. Two sedans fit fine.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved unit 4a. It had everything you could possibly need, including all of the gear for outdoor activities. The unit was very clean and well taken care of. It was in a quiet neighborhood. It was within walking distance of a few food trucks. Close to resorts for breakfast, lunch ,dinner or drinks with amazing views. Only a mile or two from the Princeville shops and conveniently central to all of the North and Northeast activities. Our on island host, Martie Law, was awesome. She was quick to answer any questions we had. We highly recommend Nahiliani 4a!!!

This was the perfect vacation home for our family of six. It was very clean and spacious. Beautiful views and located close to beaches, grocery store, and Hanalei with restaurants and shopping. It was equipped with beach bags, cooler, beach chairs, beach towels, and a boogie board as well as shampoo/conditioner and body wash. A great home, in a great location, on a beautiful island.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed here with some family and friends 5 of us total, and we just had the greatest time! The house was spectacular! Rooms were very comfortable with private lanais! The kitchen and living room areas were a great gathering spot for food dinks and games! They also had plenty of beach gear in the garage so it made going to the beach that much easier. Very cute decor made it feel like a 2nd home. And the place was spot less they take great care of the property. Highly recommend! Definitely will stay again next time I’m in Kauai!

I had a wonderful stay here with my daughter in law and my 3 granddaughters. Thanks to the beautiful surroundings and pool area we were all vey pleased with not needing to do lots of excursions. Thank you for helping me to make lasting memories with my girls.

One of our favorite stays on the island of over 25 visits. This property had everything you would need to enjoy your stay. The location was excellent and the view of the mountains from the lanais is one of our favorite features. Just a great property!

The house was everything the ad said it would be; beautiful & stocked with all the essentials. The complex location was ideal and community very safe - our family visit was just women & children so feeling and being safe was key. The only thing not ideal about the actual unit (4A) is the road noise - not a burden in the day but definitely at night if you are a light sleeper like me. The master bedroom and lania back up to a main thoroughfare in Princeville and not only can you hear every car, but at night all the headlights shine and flash through the master bedroom. The sliding door to the lanai has sheer curtains, so I had to find a dark blanket to put over the slider every night (and then take it down every morning to let sun light in). I also had to use the portable fans in the house at night to try and drown out road noise; which helped a little but not entirely. The propert itself and the manager were both amazing! But the road noise and road lights were definitely inconvenient every night, esp when we were super tired from long busy (but fun) days. I'd stay again but not at this particular unit. I would try to find a unit in the middle of the complex and away from the road.

Enjoyed being back on Kauai and love the North Shore. Great week and perfect accommodations. Condo was just as described and would definitely book this place again. Appreciated the pre-arrival communication. Thanks for a great week. Only odd thing was condo door was already open.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a fabulous place to stay during our vacation to Kauai. The condo was exceptionally stocked with everything we could have needed. Everything was thought of! We had no issues checking in or checking out. Nihilani is a beautiful complex. We loved our dips in the pool and hot tub after a long day at the beach. Everything was beautifully maintained. We could not have asked for better!

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: The property exceeded our expectations from the start. Before we arrived, Martie sent a text and email to let us know how to get in touch should we have any issues (we didn't). Directions to the property, how to get in, and how to check-out were easy to follow. There were lots of extra add-ons like beach chairs, boogie boards, bikes, a cooler, sunscreen, etc for us to use during our stay. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, spatulas, silverware, dishes, etc and we were always able to find what we needed.Our only minor hiccup was as we were driving to the property in our rented Yukon and read in the Arrival Instructions that XL vehicles don't fit in the garage...but vehicles must be in the garage overnight. Had this been noted in the description, we likely would have gotten two small vehicles for the 6 of us instead. We were able to park in the garage with mere inches to spare and didn't reach out to Martie for an alternative option, but definitely something to be aware of.Overall, we were very happy with our stay and if we find ourselves needing a place to stay in Kauai again, we would happily book this property again.
