Overall, it was a very nice stay. As we arrived, however, the parking space # we were given didn’t exist and the lock box code was inaccurate as well. Luckily, we ran into the owner early on during arrival and he got us the right details. One other concern was that there was food left in the frigerator. Ie milk, cheese, Mayo, etc.

West was an absolute gem to work with. The place was cute, and felt like our home. The fellow that does grounds keeping does an excellent job. We liked the Northside so much! Highly recommended

We stayed for two nights. The apartment is Ok for 2 persons. It is very well equipped The bed is really comfortable. The location is really good. I would repeat in case I 'd come back to the north shore of this beatiful iskand

Great studio apartment for those wishing to explore the northern coast of the island. Hanalei Bay is just a couple miles away, lots of good trails nearby, hideaways beach is a pleasant walk (or drive - there's a parking lot next to the beach) down kahaku road. The host is great, very responsive and helpful. The unit is stocked with all the beach amenities (chairs, coolers, etc) which is an extra plus. The complex is quiet. The unit has a full kitchen and a reserved parking spot. It's a great package!

We stayed in these condos before and loved the location during the summer months...all the hikes and beaches are close by. West was a wonderful and kind host and was close by in case we needed something. Thankyou for sharing your place and your beautiful island with us. We hope to be back next summer too.

This is a decent place and was as advertised. Nice location within walking distance (and a beautiful walk) to shops and food. We didn't love the outdoor kitchenette, it was annoying to bring dishes back inside and wash them in the bathroom sink, and it was annoying to only be able to use one appliance at a time. The air conditioning was pretty loud and took a long time to cook down the apartment but it did eventually get to a nice temperature. Some of the dishes were already dirty when we got there and we did see quite a few bugs our last day there. They were scheduled to spray for roaches one of the days we were there but I expressed concern to the owner and they did not spray our room - I found it very strange that they would schedule to spray pesticides while we were scheduled 6 months in advance to be there. Overall, for the price this is just fine, but recognize that it is a budget listing. We had a wonderful time in Kauai and didn't spend a lot of time here, but it just wasn't a great place to stay. I also could do without the sticky note rules/instructions everywhere, you can just write a list of rules in one place and trust people to follow them.

Good place to stay in Princeville, close to everything there is to do in north shore

Cute, clean studio with kitchenette worked out perfectly for our site seeing and North Shore hangouts! Easy parking check in and check out too. Will definitely be back! Sheree

IT WAS OK BUT BLINDS WERE BROKEN AND NEEDED NEW ONES BY SLIDING DOOR. AC WAS ADVERTISED YET PROPERTY OWNER WAS ADAMENT WE NOT USE IT WHEN WERE NOT THERE. I THINK HE CAME IN OUR UNIT TO CHECK. NOT PART OF AGREEMENT. IT GOT HUMID IN UNIT WHEN NOT ON.. EXTESION CORD WAS VISIBLE WHERE MOLDING WAS PROKEN ON PORCH BY SLIDING DOOR. NOW HE IS HOUNDING ME ABOUT TOWEL THAT WERE ALL LEFT THERE AND IN GOOD SHAPE. CLAIMING WE SWITCHED THEM. I REALLY DONT NEED HIS TOWELS. HAD NOTES AROUND ROOM ABOUT NOT USING TOO MANY APPLIANCES AT SAME TIME COULD BLOW BREAKER. AT LEAST WE ONLY REALLY COOKED BREAKFAST IN THERE.

West was super kind and accommodating, loved all the kitchenette features and we were able to cook comfortably for our trip. Cute space and the ac was a saver for the night it got warm. Hope to visit and stay here again one day! Thanks!!

Everything was as advertised. Princeville is a lovely town. Perfect location for activities on the north side.

The condo could really use a deep cleaning.

Such a lovely location and condo. We would gladly stay again.

a wonderful place to stay and a heartfelt host

This was an ideal location for exploring the north and east shores. On return to airport we had time so we went past the airport to a State Park with the double wayerfalls. A must stop is at Dukes at the Marriott which is two minutes from the Lilue Airport. Grand time was had by all.

Let me start with the dirty shower floor. My wife would shower with lights out. Blood stained sheets,old stained towels,one rouch crawling on my tv, posted notes everywhere,lives right next door and can hear everything. Parking and hot tub and pool were nice.

Our stay was for 7 days, we had everything we needed and more! I loved the outside kitchen very much! The owner was very accomodating. We highly recommend this rental !

Perfect location

Perfect location

Excellently stocked with everything you need to go to the beach. Lots of extras!

Fabulous

One aspect of Cameron’s home that we appreciated was access to wonderful beach equipment. We choose to leave our full face snorkels etc at home, but he had some very nice equipment here, including umbrellas and chairs, cooler, etc. Wonderful to not have to pack all those things!

West is a great host and has made every effort to add to the accommodations, making a cooking area on the patio. The downside of this unit is that it is a very busy property with little sound proofing. Car alarms were going off constantly. The unit has it's own parking space and we didn't have a problem but know that other guests did. It is very convenient to Princeville and just a short drive in Hanalei.

Let me begin with the positives: - Reserved parking - In princeville - Chairs, cooler provided Cons (it's going to be long and detailed!): 1. The apartment is filled with roaches of different sizes! I messaged West when we saw the roaches letting her know of the issue. Although roaches is the last thing anyone wants on a vacation, we understood that we couldn't do much because we didn't have time and energy to spend on that. But the thing that bothered us is the response from West. I expected her to apologize for it and maybe try to find a solution. Instead, she messages saying she had free access to the studio for the last 2 days and there wasn't a single roach! She wanted to come and inspect the studio. I am thinking, why can't she believe me when I say there are roaches and try to find a solution to the issue. Next day morning I captured (in 3-4 minutes) and sent ~10 photos of roaches. No reply from her. Only after messaging a few more times does she reply at night saying "I saw the little roach" and she can put poison if we would like. It not clear if she entered the studio without our permission or she was saying that based on the photos. We said poisoning doesn't matter to us at that point because we were checking out soon. Also, she didn't apologies or anything till this point. Only after a few more back and forth messages she apologizes although it felt she hated every second of that! 2. The studio is filled with instructions everywhere. I understand we are staying at her house, but it's a bit excessive, making everything stressful. 3. She asks us to put all food-waste into a sandwich sized ziplock! That's so difficult. We got food to-go a couple of times and obviously the waste wouldn't fit in that small ziplocks. We had to go to a nearby gas station to throw the waste! Again, stressful things that noone wants on a vacation. 4. Wi-Fi signal isn't great. I just used my phone data the majority of the time. I could have reached out to her about this. But I didn't feel like reaching out to her based on our previous interactions. I didn't expect anything productive to come out of it. Overall, the studio is not ideal till roaches are cleared. Also, interactions with West and the rules make everything more stressful. If you check the previous reviews, you will realize that she gets super defensive about any negative feedback. I expect the same with my review too.

It was nice to have a reserved parking space in the crowded parking lot. There were bugs. We moved all the trash out on the lanai and it was better, but we didn't cook or have food in the unit. The bedding and furnishings were good.

It was really ok. I was comfortable and felt safe For the Princeville area the property was a little aged. Being right on the corner of two main streets there was more traffic noise than I would normally hear in Princeville.. I have to say the outdoor kitchenette was a little unexpected. All considered I would stay there again

This was a nice little studio apartment in a quiet neighborhood. Comfortable and clean with easy parking. The air-conditioning was appreciated and the bed made for a good night's sleep! The kitchen set-up had everything needed for a basic meal and you really don't need more because there is excellent food nearby --- try a poke bowl from Foodland instead of buying groceries. Highly recommend this place if what you are looking for is a clean quiet place from which to explore the north coast of Kauai.

We enjoyed our stay at this property (for the most part) The price was right, the location was within good distance of everything on the north shore. The beach equipment was nice to have, kept us from getting wet multiple times at Hanalei Bay. Our only problems were the microwave, fridge, etc that is pictured to be on the inside is actually out on the patio. It was kind’ve a pain in the butt to go outside to cook, get a drink, etc. This property also asks that you turn off the a/c when you leave. We left it on due to my wife’s asthma and when we returned it had been turned off. The owners walked in while we were gone and turned it off. We returned to an extremely hot room. If you advertise a/c, please advertise that, if you will not allow us to leave it on.

West was extremely communicative and friendly during our short stay - he was available to answer any questions we had and the room was exactly as described. We would recommend anyone visiting the north shore of Kauai to stay at this place.

Excellent location next to a golf course. Lust floral vegetation and well kept grounds on the complex. Unfortunately, could only use one appliance at a time to cook with.

This is an ideal place to stay if you and your spouse are looking for a home base while you go an explore this beautiful island. West was easy to communicate with and the checkin and checkout processes were very simple. We were also very happy to find that there were a lot of beach toys available to us when we arrived. We didn't have to rent a surf board, body boards, beach chairs, etc. because they were already provided for us. Which was amazing and saved us a lot of time and money. There were also multiple coolers that we used every day as we went exploring. I was really happy with our stay. It was exactly what my wife and I hoped it would be. Highly recommend.
