Wonderful property! Location and amenities were perfect. Loved the old Hawaiian vibe and peaceful atmosphere.

We have really enjoyed our stay here! We love sitting on the patio in the morning drinking my coffee … and a glass of wine at night! We slept with the windows open to the sound of the waves breaking! There is a grocery store nearby, condo had everything we needed - beach chairs, snorkels, etc. we would definitely come back on our next trip to Kauai!! This island is amazing!

Our stay was delightful. We enjoyed the proximity to many points on the north side of Kauai. We could see the ocean and the view of the nice homes on the mountain side as this was also scenic. The condo did not have AC and we had to get a little use to it. When we arrived at 3 pm, the temperature was quite high in the unit as we needed to open windows and activate some fans that were available to cool the unit. We found that temperatures cooled at night often with light rains and a breeze which allowed for comfortable sleeping. The bed was also comfortable. The place was very clean and decorated nicely, and there was the opportunity to relax in the living room area. Our host was very responsive and very easy to work with. If visiting the area, we would certainly be glad to stay at this condo again!

Beautiful property with beautiful beach access! With respect to the beach: Sealodge beach has great snorkling. The path is steep, so bring your walking shoes. With respect to the condo: Absolutely gorgeous! Make sure the blinds are closed during the day or you may cook to death

This condo definitely won’t disappoint, beautiful views from your bed, fall asleep to the sound of waves every night. It is a freshly remodeled condo, everything was clean. They even have beach chairs, goggles, and boards for beach days. Definitely would stay here again

Amazing view. Not fancy but perfect for us. Didn’t have shower soap for us was the only thing. Loved it and would stay again.

We loved honeymooning here and couldn’t imagine a better place to stay in Princeville. Views are 10/10, appliances are new, large TV was great. The north side was our favorite place in Kauai and this was the perfect spot to take it all in.

We enjoyed every morning out on the balcony watching the sunrise & then sunset every night. A couple times we saw dolphins You can see a huge waterfall on the mountain out the kitchen window Yes it is warm without AC but all the windows open & fans going it was fine. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was perfect!

PROS: View. Listening to the Ocean. Proximity to Hanalei & Northshore beaches. Use of beach chairs & coolers. Laundry in unit. Private beach hike. Great price! CONS: Beds could be upgraded. (1king would be nice). Kitchen supplies are dated. 1-1/2hr drive to boat tours. *Close screen to avoid gnats.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is newly updated, very clean, and the washer and dryer were so nice to have after being out hiking during the day. We appreciated the provided beach equipment for snorkeling and sitting on the beach. The bed is super comfortable! The only thing I would say that wasn’t great was there were some roaches in the unit near the kitchen sink, however, when I notified Todd he promptly sent over some traps and it ended up being a minor issue. He was not aware of this issue until I brought it to his attention and he’s in the process of mitigating the problem. So it was minor and overall we were very happy with our stay!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I'm not exaggerating. This was a solo trip and it was great. The condo was everything I needed and wanted for my stay. It was nice having a secluded beach a short walk walk away. Cooler, beach mat, beach chair we're unexpected touches that made my stay more comfortable. While I did not cook, it was great to have the option with a very well equipped kitchen. This was not my first stay at Sealodge and won't be my last.

We loved the location, view from the deck, hike to the private beach, and the condo was stocked with everything we needed!! Just beware the lack of a/c made afternoons uncomfortable. Mornings and evenings were fine, plenty of fans and open windows. But coming back after a day of hiking and beaching, etc, it was too hot to take showers and dress to go back out for dinner. We’d open the windows back up and sit outside until it was cool enough to go inside and take cold showers before going out. But we really did enjoy our stay!!!

This property was overall amazing! Great views and very clean. Also has everything you need kitchen and laundry wise as well! I know the place didn’t have air conditioning when I booked it, and as a native Texan who thrives in air conditioning it was a wee bit hot at night! But still would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed the condo during our stay on Kauai. We looked forward every morning to watching sunrise with a cup of coffee and relaxing with a glass of wine in the evening. Evan from the management company addressed any issue promptly when contact (nothing major, just the small everyday issues). Very happy with everything.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is centrally located to many places in the northern section of Kuaui. So many beaches to choose from and the unit provides chairs, an umbrella, cooler. The site itself is a bit like a fishbowl with neighbors visible in their units and the view from this unit is a bit obstructed with the layout of the building itself.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay in this unit. Granted, it's a little dated and a couple of things were "wonky", but the views from every room made it worth it. We trekked down to the beach one day, which was a little hike but beautiful and the beach was fabulous. We enjoyed a day in the pool as well. Waking up to the sunrise every morning offset the lack of a/c (which we knew about when we booked). Overall, a great location and stay!

The location of the condo was in close proximity to many nearby attractions. The views were so beautiful and relaxing. Waking up to the sound of the ocean was amazing.

The views from this condo were amazing! The condo was very clean and inviting and the location was perfect. We had our coffee on the lanai every morning. There is a nearby trail that takes you to a secluded beach. We highly recommend Sealodge J7!

The ocean views from this condo are fantastic. Wonderful sea breezes kept us comfortable. We took advantage several times of the pool at the complex. The condo was clean and well stocked. We would definitely stay there again.

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying at this perfect condo. The view from inside the condo and on the balcony is beyond beautiful. We watched the sunrise everyday from the large window in the sitting area. We definitely br back. be back.

The condo was very nice but small, perfect for 2 people. Plenty of supplies, only thing we had to request was more kleenex. Todd was very responsive and quick reply. The bath towels were good size and soft, but bathroom was quite small. Overall we enjoyed our stay here. We had a great view of the ocean, but couldn't see the sunset because it was blocked by a wall. You can walk down to a secluded beach but it's a steep hike down.

We absolutely loved our view. The kitchen was nice and well equipped. The little extras like beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels came in handy. We spent a lot of time at the condo just relaxing and we made several trips down to Sealodge Beach. We loved our time here.

Beautiful place! The remodel that was done is spot on and done was upgraded touches. Everything was clean, had everything we needed and wanted and it was private and quiet. Amazing views and not far from Hanalei. Would give it highest stars.

Stayed here to celebrate my mom’s 60th birthday in Kauai. This place has everything you could possibly need. The view is incredible and it was awesome to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the ocean. Also, the kitchen and bathroom got renovated. Sealodge F6 was just as advertised and even more.

This space is in a beautiful location! You do have mountain and ocean views from the outside deck and it’s an easy drive to many of the north shore beaches etc. The space was pretty clean, the only areas that could use a deep clean were the surfaces of the cabinets. It was really nice to have an AC in the bedroom. However, the bed was quite small for two people and uncomfortable. Updating the bed would greatly improve the space. The condo has really nice floors and kitchen appliances and there’s a cute little walk-in closet for all your luggage. We loved sitting on the patio in the mornings and having coffee. You can see and hear lots of birds and the ocean waves. There is also a cool little trail down to the water. It’s mostly lava rock and very beautiful, but if you are looking for a sandy beach you have to drive somewhere. Overall we loved the space, but I’m not sure I would book it again, due to the bed.

We loved our stay here waking up to beautiful sunrises and ocean views. The location is close to shops and restaurants and nearby Hanalei. The amenities were as described. This was our first time staying in this area of the island and we look forward to coming back again.

Great view, but noisy upstairs occupants. Toaster broken, fan and light above dining table not functional. If you accidentally (or don’t know better) lock the bottom lock, there is no way to get back in. Left voicemail and went an entire day with no return call. Love the SeaLodge, but this unit was disappointing.

The view is AMAZING. The pictures of this property do not do it justice. We want to come back for whale watching season and hope to make this a future family vacation spot. We came for our babymoon but this unit would be perfect for a couple and two kids. The unit had everything we needed-shampoo, beach chairs, beach towels and bath towels, kitchen utensils, and coffee machine-all of the basics. Check in was a breeze and the owner was very responsive. The complex has a nice pool with ocean view and direct access to a beach down a steep trail that is not very populated. The complex was quiet except for the enjoyable lull of the ocean waves and some birds/roosters. It was pure bliss staying here and even hard to leave to go explore the island because the view from any room was so spectacular. The lanai view is equally as breathtaking as the window-seat and there are so many desirable areas to relax in you cannot go wrong. Stargazing was a highlight and seeing the Kilaeua lighthouse. The unit is not super updated-there is only a fan in the master bedroom and no AC but the ocean breeze from all of the windows was great when we were there and you have easy access to local beaches that are a short drive and the pool to go cool down. There were spare fans available. The is a great quiet location with easy access to many local spots and very close to Hanalei. We will recommend the property to anyone and we hope we are lucky enough to be able to book it again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ideal location, well maintained, very friendly and helpful staff provided lots of insider tips to make our stay even more fun. Unit had all the "extras" we needed for snorkeling, beach days, and more. Pantry could use some love (there was no salt and pepper), but we were glad to find a bag of coffee in the cupboard! Our only disappointment was that the pool was closed for the duration of our stay.

We were very pleased with our decision to stay here vs other rentals we'd found in Princeville at a similar price point, primarily due to the location with amazing views of both the sea and lush mountains. We enjoyed the short jungle trek to the hidden Sealodge beach, watching the sunrise from the property's grounds, and listening to nature around us. The condo had everything needed to make our short stay comfortable, and the pictures accurately depict the inside of the property. We also appreciated that the owner warned us when we booked that without a/c, the condo could get hot during the daytime. We were OK with this for our short stay because we were out exploring most of the day. However, we would probably not opt for an extended stay in August. This is true of many to most of rentals, but the upper floor and sun exposure, which make for fabulous views, may also contribute to the warming in the unit. In summary, we were extremely happy and would stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect size for 2, liked how they furnished and the decor was nice. Loved where the dining table was placed. It was like being outside while dining. 2 portable fans helped moved the air throughout unit. Squeezed one in bathroom to keep humility down, tight but made a big difference since there is no exhaust fan. Yes, the property is older and looks funky but the unit was clean enough with tile floors, newer dishwasher and refrigerator and lots of windows full of the beautiful view. Only incident I had on first day there was the beach chairs must of had mango oils from hitting trees or juice from skins but I unfortunately found out the hard way I have a awful allergic reaction to Mango oil, skin etc (same as poison oak/ivy) and ended up in the urgent care in Princeville. Left message with management to make sure chairs were deep cleaned to avoid another incident for unknowing future guests. Never heard back from management, but we did tell the cleaning crew that came as we were leaving. But now we know and still hope to return.
