My family loved our stay at Ema’s place in Princeville. Check in process was easy, and she was very easy to connect with. The home was close to many things and a short drive from places in Princeville along with Hanalei. We used the kitchen a lot and it had everything we needed to make our meals! Ema’s place was perfect for our family. I also loved that she provided games, toys for kids, and beach gear! I would definitely stay here again.

We had a great time enjoying the North Shore with this condo as home base. The place is packed with everything you will need for your stay, especially if you have children with you. Games, toys, boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkeling gear, etc. the kitchen has everything you would want. Unfortunately, our stay aligned with what is likely one of the warmest and sunniest weeks of the year and the electrical infrastructure only allows you to run two of the 3 bedroom AC units at a time. So one of the bedrooms remained quite warm until a few hours after sunset. For most people this should be no problem. We just had some tired kids who were in bed early especially with the time change. No complaints otherwise and we would stay here again.

This property was great for our family of 5. It was in a great location on the North side of the Island. All of the boogie boards, beach towels, and umbrellas was a plus. There were portable AC units in each of the upstairs bedrooms which were handy when it got super hot. The property was quiet and neighbors respectful. With a family of 5 (including a teen) it would have been nice to have two showers. Ema was a great host and we would stay again!

This house was perfect. It was so close to town and had everything that we needed. The short drive to the beach is amazing.

Great location for all your adventures on the north shore. I recommend checking out the trail to the beach just down the road by Nourish. It sounds like some people might have gotten confused by the trail signs thinking it might be a privates trail. Read the FULL signs. We didn’t have any problems. Met some nice locals on the trail. Drive SLOW on the road and be respectful. Enjoy!

Everything was excellent except my husband and I are elderly and I’ve had polio so the steps were a big problem for us. We didn’t know it was 2 story. We had a great time.

The home was located in a wonderful location just outside Hanalei and super close to everything in Princeville. The house was as described with a good sized kitchen for cooking and a great supply of beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards. It was a bit tight for six friends but we made it work and had a great time. The property manager was extremely responsive and helpful.

My family enjoyed our time here - it's clean, has lots of space and the beds were comfortable. We much appreciated the boogie boards, beach chairs and umbrella. It's a good central location to explore the north shore of Kauai convenient to both Hanalei and Princeville.

Me and my 4 children had an absolute wonderful experience staying here. We are all homebodies and really appreciate the feeling of being home after a long day of exploring. This place provided just that. It was very clean and bright. The ambiance provided an uplifting and warm feeling. The roosters were very welcoming too!
The whole check in process was very easy to understand and follow. When we first arrived we were provided with gifts in the kitchen that the kids and I enjoyed immensely. That was such a nice surprise! The location of the place is only about 5 minutes from the Hanalei Beach as well as the town Hanalei. There is also a nearby grocery store which is very convenient too. Everything is provided for a day at the beach. We used it all especially 2 of the boggie boards. If I ever come back I hope to stay here again.

Very clean, ample space, awesome host gifts!! The place was perfect for our family. Loved all the available beach gear and the snack shack just down the road!!!

About a 10 min drive to Hanalei bay and another shopping center/area for food so we felt it was pretty central. Easy check. The house had plenty of utensils, cups, plates, and cookware. Not stocked with any additional items like seasoning or oil but that’s okay they did leave some complimentary snacks and beverages which was nice. Only thing that stood out was that the house could use a deep clean some less common areas were pretty dusty and the washing machine had some build up/gunk in it. Overall the stay was good.

Great location for exploring Princeville, Hanalei & Anini Beach. Well kept home with lots & lots of amenities. If i ever get the chance to come back thos location is worth reviewing.

We spent 5 nights in this adorable condo. Everything you need for the beach is provided. Towels, umbrellas, boogie boards, chairs, sand toys…etc
The kitchen has every gadget you need to cook. All of the beds were so comfy. Great pillow options.
The condo is in a very quiet quaint location. My 12 year old found some toys that she’d play with after a long day at the beach. They have a fun selection of card and board games for the family. Our trip couldn’t have been better. We were welcomed with a gift basket of treats 🌺 Mahalo

This home was perfect for my family. Location was great with easy access to Hanalei and Prineville.
Very comfortable and probably one of the best appointed rentals I’ve stayed in. Everything from beach toys, to family games to a full kitchen full of gadgets covering all our needs
We would stay here again

My husband an adult children spent the week here. The condo is spacious, clean, and well-equipped with beach accessories (towels, chairs, boogie boards), as well as a full-stocked kitchen. The location was wonderful, tucked away from the masses, yet close to grocery stores and Hanalei town.
The walk to the beach though the “jungle” was beautiful everyday, and provided and nice walk to either snorkeling or surf -depending which beach you went to.
The condo is beautifully decorated, and the beds/linens were all comfortable.
The hostesses, Ema, is a great host, who answered all questions and was responsive to all correspondence. Her little added “welcome” package was a great way to start our vacation.
Unanimously, my family agreed that we would most definitely come back and stay here again. 🌺

Online pictures are misleading, the actual property is the complete opposite of the described new and updated townhouse,
The property smelled of smoke and/or mold.
It was a really hot day and one AC unit was broken, another AC unit was taped together with duct tape, and the last AC unit worked.
The property owner would not work with us to address our concerns regarding her rental property.
We have been to that part of Kauai many times and know what is acceptable regarding rental properties.
We rented the townhouse for 4 nights, but left after a few hours. We were willing to lose our sizable rental payment rather than stay in the townhouse.

Location is great for being close to grocery store, Hanalei Trail, and Hanalei Beach, where we spent most of our time. Was a little warm in one bedroom and downstairs without a/c on a hot day. Overall would stay here again.
5.0
A fabulous place. Beautiful with all amenities to support a family vacation. We spent 10 days, will do it again! This is the perfect spot to launch a tour of the North and West part of the Island, but not unreasonable to see and explore the South and West if you book enough time on the Island. My family described this rental as home.

We loved our stay in Kauai at this beautiful property. Communication was excellent. The house was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need and more. The house was beautifully and tastefully decorated with very comfortable furniture and furnishings. We loved the location of the house as it allowed us to walk down to beautiful pathway towards the Hanalei water, thank you so much for your aloha spirit.

I look forward to booking this quiet condo again. Everything worked, it was clean, welcoming, functional, great location, and good communication with host if needed. Sweet art work and amnesties making one feel at home. So nice to have a washer and dryer handy and check out was a breeze. No AC doesn’t bother me and if you want to live like a local, you just create the cross breeze using windows and there are fans in every room. Aloha spirit all the way.

Loved our first stay on the island of Kauai! We enjoyed this property and would stay again.
Pros: we liked the location, smaller community feel, 3 bedrooms, air conditioners!, and all the comforts of home
Cons: photos and description are misleading regarding views/outdoor space and the walk to the beach. The beach is at least a mile walk that goes through private property. We went most of the way- past no trespassing and danger warning signs- and eventually turned around feeling uncomfortable. Just plan to rent a car and drive to one of the many awesome beaches.
We also had construction at the complex daily, including one day that they were working on the deck of this property - glad to see the upkeep! But should have been made aware.
We look forward to our next opportunity to visit the island!

Me & my family came to Kauai for the first time & this place was the perfect place to stay! Just a short drive away, there was a shopping center with restaurants & a grocery store that we were able to walk to. There were lots of roosters & even two friendly neighborhood kitties that came to visit us everyday. Highly recommend Ema & her probably for your stay!

Wanted to check out Kauai while living in Oahu and this place doesn’t disappoint. The house was super clean, very well decorated and super comfy beds. Located very close to food, emergency services if needed and Food Land. I would recommend staying here.

Our family was well stocked with games and beach gear to enjoy each day in paradise! We enjoyed the lovely yard and friendly neighbors. We were close to Beaches, shopping and mini golf in a botanical garden which the kids loved! A perfect vacation!

Perfect location between Princeville and Hanalei. Short droves to each. Amazing food stand (Nourish Hanalei) just done the road with amazing views of the valley.
Home was clean and had all the beach toys/towels.
Would definitely return to this location.

My husband and I had an awesome stay here at Emma’s condo. She has all the beach gear ready to go. The kitchen had everything for us to cook and feel right at home. Location was perfectly next to the princeville plaza and A lovely walk to the beach!

Rental location is pretty good, could have used some tips on "walking to beach" from owner, but she also gifted us some wine & chocolate macadamias, so that was nice.
The 2nd floor gets very warm on warmer days. Master & queen bedrooms have the biggest, loudest, most cumbersome, unattractive & most intrusive airconditioner-dehumidifier machines we've ever seen. The queen bedroom particularly was unbelievably cramped with the huge hose attached to the window & plugged on a different wall-- no way around it without tripping or accidentally pulling hose from machine. The noise that thing makes for the sake of cool air is maddening! Maybe it's time to get the windows replaced & get small window air conditioners for each room up there. Those machines have to go!
Rental decor could use an update & better organization area for all the beach & kids stuff. The back porch is essentially unusable due to space & looking at parking lot. We had 4 adults in our group & the double bed room was empty, but if there were more of us there would not have been enough room downstairs to be together.
Overall, it was a good enough place to stay but not great to hang out to talk & relax in.
Great coffee maker.
