The condo was so nice and clean. The outside covered patio is so nice. We used the beach chairs and boards in the garage each day on the beach. Highly recommend this place

This place is local Hawaii resident approved! We live on Big Island and frequent the other islands when our adult kids visit throughout the year so we can play tour guide and make that long plane ride from the mainland unique for them each trip. While we only spent our evenings to sleep in the unit, we appreciated the peace and quiet, cleanliness, communication, ease of access/parking, reasonable pricing, amenities and location. We loved that the bedrooms were separated by the living/dining area and that all appliances were in clean/ working order - a rare experience for us with all the other vacation rentals we’ve stayed in locally. We stayed for a week and will definitely not only stay again but will recommend highly to others.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 is amazing with a beautiful layout and design. All of the amenities one could ask for in a vacation rental. The one drawback I would say is the extra bedrooms and bathrooms are not air conditioned, however, this aspect did not hinder our stay and gratitude to the owner for sharing the property with our family.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 6th stay at Plantations and each time we come we appreciate the value and beauty of this lovely spot. Perfectly maintained property that has only gotten lusher with time . We have stayed in various units and used various booking sites . Found Hawai’i Life management to be most helpful . We initially were concerned with the location of unit as it located near the street but it really was a non issue . Serenaded by beautiful birds daily. Fully stocked with every item imaginable we may have needed for stay and play ! This unit was perfect for our needs and exceeded our expectations and we hope to be back soon !

Great setup for 2 couples without kids. Curtains instead of doors off living area is a little strange.

The home was very light and airy. The view out the window was extraordinary, And although you definitely would want a car to get around the area, the location worked very well for us.

We drove through Princeville 10 years ago and never thought we would stay here. It was just as nice as I thought it would be. It was so nice in the morning sitting on the patio, drinking coffee and listening to the birds! We felt very comfortable with the accommodations. Our host was very helpful and communicative.

We loved our stay at this fabulous condo in Princeville - the beautiful location in Kauai the easy going North Shore! It was perfect for our family - with 3bdrms/3 baths and a/c in living/main bdrm - and all the comforts of home! We loved the deck for dining & relaxing and the condo is so close to the Foodland market and it is a quick trip to Hanalei and other beaches. We will stay here again! Aloha and Mahalo!

Kitchen fully stocked, awesome coffee pot that doesn’t need paper filters, Ninja blender for drinks, so many kitchen extras! Thick bath towels, powerful hair dryer…..and Laura, the contact person, is on site and very helpful. Replies to texts promptly😊

3 adult couples really enjoyed our stay in this condo. The host was wonderful and very timely and responsive to all communication. The location is so close tonHanalei and Kapaa and all the great beaches in between. My only complaint is that the property and location was so great that we didn’t even make it down to the southern part of the island other than once. So much to do and see right where we were. The condo was spacious, we loved the pool and spent most of our time out on the balcony. We never felt crowded. Highly recommend.

This is the first time a rental has lived up to the pictures for us. It was very clean, spacious and well organized. This was by far our best short term rental experience. It was stocked with dishware and spices so we could cook our own meals. The beds were very comfortable. The host was very responsive and answered all questions quickly. This would be my first choice if we ever visit again.

Surrounding neighborhood and area is beautiful. The residence was very clean and updated. Kitchen was well stocked with all essential utensils, pans, etc. The airconditioning was quiet (important) and effective. Mattresses were excellent. We stayed for six nights.

This rental was very nice! It had all the necessities and it was super clean! It was very comfortable for our family of 5. The community is very quite which I really enjoyed. It was about .5 mile to hideaway beach, about a 2 minute drive to shops and about about 7 minutes to Hanalei. It was wonderful.

We had a lovely time at this place! The host was so accommodating. The first night they forgot the pack n play which they were super quick to respond and was able to get it to us the next day ( we were okay without the first night). We also had a delayed flight and we asked if we could have a later check out and they responded quickly and was very willing to allow us a later check out. The place was very clean and exceeded our expectation! It was very nice to have a bathroom for each bedroom. And to be very close to both Princeville and Hanalei made for a great location. They had lots of beach stuff we could use such as chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, a pool noodle, snorkel gear and beach towels. Seriously that was soo helpful and useful. We had the best stay and we definitely highly recommend this place and will keep this place in mind when traveling to Kauai again!

We had a wonderful stay here! The home was beautiful, just like the pictures. The pool was awesome and so close to the unit. The upstairs guests were a little loud at times but that’s too be expected being in a ground floor unit. I would definitely stay here again My only wish was that they had crib sheets for the travel crib. I would have brought my own had I known they didn’t have any. I assumed they would since they had the crib but i should have confirmed. I also was really happy they had two snorkel masks to use for me and my family. Awesome place! Checking in was super easy and we had no issues at all.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was clean, beautifully decorated and stocked with any essentials one might need during their stay including lots of beach gear. It is centrally located on the North shore by shops and restaurants. The only drawback was some of the noise from the pool. While there were quiet hours on the property that were generally observed by most guests there were some guests who allowed their children to play unattended at the pool frequently and they would be unnecessarily loud with screaming involved. I know it is a family friendly community so you have to expect some general noise but at times it was unpleasant to sit on the patio. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this location for your stay in Kauai.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There 821 Condo was excellent for our party. We especially liked the lanai where we spent each early evening with a view of the pool and palms. Close to all the places we wanted to go in Prnceville and Hanalei. We especially enjoyed snorkeling at Anini Beach where there were turtles in abundance. We come back every other year with our family and Hawaii Life is always the company we deal with no others.

Loved this stay and hope to be back! Everything was thoughtfully considered and super clean. The location is fantastic. There are plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. Beautiful landscaping and pool nearby. Ideal for families with kids in any age group. The unit is thoughtfully laid out, private and tastefully decorated. Wonderful master bath and bedroom. The only issues were the upstairs neighbors were a little noisy in the morning and the wifi connection was slow at times. Minor issues compared to how amazing this place is. These are friendly, welcoming hosts who immediately respond to questions. Loved the food truck guide! Would definitely book again!

We love Kauai and this condo was perfect for our family (4 adults). The layout gave everyone a place to spreadout and have their own space. The condo is well located and has nice views of the pool and mountains. It was a bonus to have some chairs, cooler, boogie board, etc. to use during our stay. We chose to cook the majority of our meals and found the kitchen to be very well-equipped. We would definitely stay here again!

The place was clean with all the amenities (trash bags, first aid, kit, beach chairs). Pool was easily accessible and not crowded. Excellent location. Communication was easy and effective! Definitely would stay here again.

This condo was everything we could ask for for our group of 5. The location was perfect to see the north side of the island close enough to the airport and excursions. The bedrooms were amazing and comfortable and the bathrooms were gorgeous. The pool was serene and just a few steps away. The hosts made sure we had everything we needed from a well stocked kitchen to bikes and kayaks if we needed them. This was the perfect stay for us.

This condo was confortable for a family of 5. It was very well equipped and located on a quiet street. We had everything for the beach which was super efficient. The only tiny down side is the terrasse is situated on a busy street but we manage to eat outside anyway. With the A/C on you can’t hear anything. I would definitely go back.
Julie M.
August 2024

We had a wonderful stay here. The place was very clean and had amenities - kitchen supplies, condiments, toiletries, laundry detergent, dishwashing soap, beach towels, cooler, etc.. Check-in was very easy and instructions from Terry were very clear. Accuracy of the listing was correct. Communication with Terry was outstanding; she gave us great recommendations. We experienced an issue early in our stay where the refrigerator and freezer broke. Terry did everything she could to resurrect and fix the situation, and we felt satisfied with the outcome. Location was perfect for experiencing Hanalei and beyond and Kilauea and Moloa'a. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and would recommend to others! Mahalo!

We so enjoyed our stay at this condo. So well maintained and cared for, it truly felt like a home away from home. The location was perfect for getting around to various beaches, while being quiet and family friendly. Walking distance to Princeville center, and the Princeville Farmer's Market on Saturdays. We loved every minute of our time there!

Very spacious and well equipped condo, location is fantastic on the North Shore with easy access to Hanalei, Ke’e, Anini, Queens Bath. Complex is very nice and well maintained.
