Upon our arrival, I was somewhat disappointed that first evening that the condo appeared a bit tired and shabby. By the next afternoon, my attitude adjusted and I realized that it was adequate in the ways that mattered. The bed was comfortable, the shower had good water pressure and the appliances in the kitchen worked well. It was clean, quiet and in a nice location. But it could definitely use some new paint, a carpentry refresh and a bit of modernizing in the kitchen. The attentiveness of staff before and during our visit was excellent. We’d stayed at this complex 3 yrs prior with friends, thus our decision to return to the area.

As advertised, the views from every window were gorgeous. This was the perfect location to stay with all the modern amenities needed included within the property.

One of the best vacation rentals we have stayed in. Unit was more beautiful than the pictures and the location cannot be beat. You are close to the grocery store, food trucks, hiking, farmers markets and restaurants. Everything you hope your vacation rental will be- communicative host, extremely clean property, well stocked kitchen and a view that will keep you mesmerized. The home is so well stocked you could easily stay here a month or longer. We took Alan's advise, got some great local seafood and ate most of our meals on the deck watching the waves! So many little touches made this an excellent stay, cannot wait to be back. Thank you both!

Great location with close proximity to anything on the North shore. Clean unit, ground floor unit and wonderful sounds of the ocean to lull you to sleep.

We stayed 4 nights at this condo. Location was great. Convenient to everything. Had a nice time. Condo is outdated but the pictures depict it accurately other than the balcony. The pictures of the balcony make the balcony look much larger than it is. There is no table on the balcony and no room really to have one out here. Master bedroom had 2 double beds and second bedroom had one. Beds were very small. Not really large enough for 2 normal sized adults. There were plenty of towels placemats, hand towels, dishes and silverware. There were 2 very nice beach chairs and an umbrella to use which we enjoyed. The sliding door and screen were very difficult to open/close and the screen door really needs to be replaced. It only opened 1/4 of the way making it difficult to go through to the balcony. You were not able to open either of them with one hand. For what we were paying we could have dealt with all of this with no complaints except… on our last morning there we went to get one of the last hand towels out of the kitchen drawer and when we took it out there was a dead RAT in the bottom of the drawer. We gave it 2 stars on cleanliness because other than the rat it was very clean.

This was the best condo for 4 friends who love nature. We spent every morning and night on the lanai bird watching and taking in the gorgeous views of the mountains, tropical foliage, and ocean! Even got waterfalls the morning after it rained! Really comfy beds and everything we could ever need in the condo.
Complex is really laid back and quiet. Pool/hot tub/bbqs are great! Love how close it is to Hanalei Bay and all the greatrestaurants around the wares.

We loved everything about this property. Very clean, lots of great amenities. The host really thought of everything. Great communication and very responsive. The master bedroom bed was very comfortable, I'm pretty picky with beds and my back didn't hurt at all the entire week we were there. The grounds were beautiful and nicely manicured. Location is perfect, 15 minutes from the bay. Loved being so close to the cliffs and being able to hear the waves crashing. This condo is perfect for a family. We look forward to visiting again. .

Wonderful one week stay at this beautiful, clean condo with amazing views. All the comforts of home with fully equipped kitchen. comfortable beds. Great views from both bedrooms and lanai. We loved the morning coffee with visiting chickens! Also a bonus, outside storage had chairs, umbrella and other beach gear. Beach towels and yoga mats provided too! Would definitely stay here again.Mahalo!

This is a great location if you are looking for stunning views of the ocean. You can fall asleep to the sounds of the waves every night. The unit is quiet and in a low traffic area. This place was well stocked with things you will need for your stay. This one had things left over from previous stays like condiments and seasonings that you would need to cook. There was laundry stuff there to do laundry. I would stay here again.

The location was perfect for stargazing and watching big ocean waves! The condo was comfortable and clean with nice bedding and big fluffy towels. The owner was attentive and visited with us to ensure we were comfortable. We very much appreciated the wonderful hospitality! We’ve only been gone for one night, but wish we were still there!

Overall we had no issues with the unit. Everything we needed was there. While not a new unit, it was in very nice shape. There were a couple issues which the property manager quickly took care of, so all in all it was good and we would certainly return.
Unfortunately the resort hot tub was out of order for the week, but that was not a problem with the unit, just the resort. We just spent more time on the beach!.

Everything was as advertised. Only thing I would be cautious of, is arriving at night. Parking lot/whole subdivision is not well lit. Take your time. Overall experience was great!

Words and photos cannot do this property justice. We spent hours listening and watching the ocean right from the back patio, and falling asleep to the sound of the waves gave us our best nights of sleep in years. We loved hiking at both Ha'ena and Koke'e State Parks, and the Jack Harter Doors Off Helicopter Tour was phenomenal. Highly recommend the Princeville Botanical Gardens; our favorite restaurant by far was The Terrace Hanalei. We will be back!

Lovely accommodations. We felt grateful for this unit with its spectacular views! First morning directly off the balcony was a giant fat rainbow. Tropic birds flying in front of your windows. See turtles down below with your binoculars. Seemed secluded yet groceries less than 10 minutes away. We will be back!

On the plus side, the space was decent in a nice area close to Princeville. The kitchen was fairly well appointed with medium quality dishes. They really should repair the wall behind the microwave though.
They should make it clear the pool you see in the pictures is not the one you are allowed to use. The one you are able to use is actually better but we wasted time not knowing we were trying to get into the wrong area.
Our TV failed before a big game and we spent al lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong. Turns out it was Roku but we were without entertainment for most of the trip. No stereo, or ability to use DVD. Kauai is very quiet after dark.

The stay was ok, the bedding (mattresses) need to be replaced as they are all old and very uncomfortable. Furniture in the living room is also wore done. Window sills in 2nd bedroom has mold on the frames.
The shower's were good, and there is plenty of towels. the place was clean overall though.
We had plenty of hot water, the dish washer did not clean the dishes as it needs to be replaced. The roosters/chickens outside the complex were so loud, had to sleep with ear plugs every night. For the amount of money it costs to rent the place, we won't go back.
They host was accommodating and let us check out later, we appreciated that very much and the host provided good information about the island also.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay! The view of the ocean is amazing and the condo has its own little secluded grass section. We enjoyed sipping wine and watching the sunset each day. The condo also came perfectly stocked with everything that we would ever need kitchen wise, bathroom wise, etc. We made a couple of wonderful meals!
Also loved the main bathroom! It has a huge walk in shower and a large tub which was great. 10/10 would stay again!

Enjoyed our stay at Will’s Ali’i Kai 2 bedroom/2 bath condo. We relaxed and enjoyed the sounds of the ocean which lulled us to sleep every night. Views are fantastic and we watched the unending waves all day.
Unit is even nicer than photos depict. Kitchen and baths are all updated recently. We cooked every night, and even baked cookies and found the condo very well equipped in all areas from pots and pans to cooking utensils.
Right across from the community pool, if you enjoy that. We grilled out on the community grill one evening.
Lots of walks from the unit are available all over the community and Princeville.
We have stayed in many units at the Ali’i Kai over the past 25 years, and this is an excellent unit in terms of location, views and being well kept and maintained. Thank you Will.

Absolutely no complaints about the property, or the manager. Everything one could want for cooking in the apartment, which was quite nice. No AC but not needed because the tradewinds cool the place.
My only issue was the upstairs neighbors. They changed over 6-7 times in one month and some were quite badly behaved (loud and drunken). Nothing to be done apparently. We had no idea of any recourse available.
I would not hesitate to rent it again though. Best I’ve ever rented in 30 years on Kauai.

We enjoyed two weeks in Ali’i Kai. The condo is very spacious, comfortable and well appointed. The managers at Lotus Property Management were extremely helpful with a few little details, like bringing us an extra beach chair and contacting the onsite handyman when the door lock needed changing. The view of the mountains from the lanai is wonderful and there are ocean glimpses from the windows on the other side. The pool and grounds are well maintained and look nice all the time. Though the stairs might seem steep when you arrive with your luggage, it’s definitely an advantage to be upstairs both for the view and the clean lanai. Ground floor suites have to deal with what the geese leave behind! Princeville has pleasant walks on residential streets and along the golf course, but you are not in walking distance to the beach. Hanalei town js a short drive away and is a cute town with lots of shops and a gorgeous beach. The north shore is wetter than the south but green and beautiful.
