Pali Ke Kua - Princeville Condo Rentals

The pictures online are accurate. I enjoyed sitting on the deck every morning and evening with a beverage (and bug spray on my body!). The two bedrooms have cold AC, but the rest of the condo gets very warm late afternoon/evening. The trade winds do NOT blow into the condo on the view side, where the big screens are. The temperature by the front door was nice and cool with the breeze, but I could not risk leaving the door open due to a mosquito allergy. So fair warning, if the view is more important, then choose this place... if the cooler air is more important, choose a place that faces the other side of Princeville, looking toward Kapaa. The property came well stocked with dishwasher soap, hand soap, and bath products. The most pleasant surprise was that we found 4 beach chairs and an umbrella in the closet! I bought snorkel gear and left it for the next guest to use. There were welcome snacks on the table and a notebook with directions how to use the TV, as well as island tips and information. Vacasa seems to have this down to a tee! Only complaints were some holes in two of the screens, some dead bugs that the cleaning crew did not wipe up, and the temperature of the loft and living room in the late afternoon. Nothing that would prevent me from staying there again. However, the price was REALLY high, so I sort of expected perfection in the condo. Also, if you have not been to Princeville before, please note, the beaches all require steep hills to access, unless you drive to Hanalei. The ONE hotel offers paved steps to access their public beach. The other nearby beaches are down dirt paths and are beautiful. You just need to be fit enough to handle the hike. We did not opt to bring chairs down to those beaches, but took them to Hanalei bay in the car one day. We only brought towels and a backpack to the closer beaches for ease of hiking.

Loved the condo. Great layout and views from the couch inside or patio outside were unmatched. Full kitchen was easy to use. Bed comfortable with AC and overhead fan. We were able to watch the sunset each night over the bay. Pool and hot tub were awesome and was just across the road. Took advantage of the snorkeling gear available in the apartment. Convenient access to all things Princeville and Hanalei/NorthShore. Would stay here again in a heart beat.

Made for an amazing stay for our family vacation!
