This two-bedroom, two-bath unit boasts sweeping ocean views from your fully-stocked kitchen, living room, dining room, newly renovated lanai, and primary bedroom.
Pu'o Poa is the perfect location, walking distance to two uncrowded beaches and a short drive from the Princeville Shopping Center and Hanalei Beach. The Makai Golf Course is a very short drive away as well.
One of Puu Poa's best amenities is the pool on the edge of the cliff - you'll find it hard to pull yourself away from this truly epic spot. There are also pickleball courts on site!

Just across from Hideaways access is the public staircase to the beach at the new 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay. This newly renovated 5-star hotel boasts three world-class restaurants, a coffee bar, shopping, a spa, and many fantastic views.
Please note, that this home does not have central air conditioning but relies on ceiling fans and ocean breezes to cool the home.

Instantly at Home
The moment my family walked into the condo, we felt at home. The condo felt larger than what was imagined looking at the pictures. The numerous amenities kept us comfortable during our stay. Some amenity highlights were: stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and bedding, and washer/dryer. The two lanais were a bonus to the relaxation we experienced at the condo. The condo is very clean and well-taken care of.

Kauai Revisited
My wife and I stayed at the Pua Poa 12 years ago and I remembered the spacious lanais and spectacular views. This time we traveled with another couple (all of us seniors). The unit provided us everything we needed. The furnishings were outdated, but everything was neat and clean. We are not overly picky, but the only complaint would be that the lanai was in need of repair. There were several cracked tiles and weeds popping up between the tiles that housekeeping could have easily taken care of to make things more visually aesthetic . However, our focus is on the ocean and relaxation, so we easily got passed those issues. Overall we had a great time there.

Quiet and clean
We had a great stay at Puu Poa and just felt right at home. The condo was clean and so quiet. We enjoyed time on the patio with not a sole in sight. Great location for day trips we took and would book this again.

great find
What a great place to visit. Very close to one of the best beaches (with a little hike). The building is unique and offers fantastic views! Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Everything We Needed
The Pu'u Poa condos are the ideal location to stay on the north shore. We had the most beautiful ocean view, a pool, and a short climb down to Hideaways Beach. #305 had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy cooking at the condo and visiting the beaches. Such a well stocked condo! The lanai could use some maintenance and lighting, but you don't notice cracked tile when you are looking at the sunset.

Paradise
This wasn’t our first visit to a Princeville, so we knew we were coming to Paradise. The rental has two lanais with direct bluff/ocean views overlooking Hanalei Bay and ‘Bali Hai.’ Large sliders brought the outside into the open plan, two level living/dining/kitchen area.
We were anticipating company when we booked this space, but we wound up having more than enough space for just the two of us.
This location is fabulous. We walked 3to 5miles every day, drove to Hanalei numerous times, toured towns al over Kauai, visited an active regenerative farm, visited the lighthouse and other sights, and had cocktails and many meals on our beautiful lanai.
This unit has a fully stocked kitchen and two large bathrooms. Our only criticism would be that there is a light fixture in the guest bathroom that needs replacing, and the lack of light in that tub space would have made it very hard for people using that bathroom to bathe.
That being said, the rental company was very responsive in trying to resolve the problem, and hopefully, the next guests won’t have to deal with that.
We were rarely home during the daytime, or construction noise next door could have been an issue, but our contract had stated that this might be the case, so we were pleasantly surprised that the nose wasn’t constant.
The weather was perfect the whole time and we would come back to this property in a heartbeat.

Beautiful place!
What a wonderful place to spend a few days on Kauai! The view from the patio is gorgeous and the kitchen is so well appointed that any gourmet cook would find all they need to cook a delicious meal. Would definitely recommend this place and stay here again. Grocery stores and farmers markets close by as well as close access to the north end of the island.

Paradise found!
This was just as pictured. Ocean view, sound of waves lulling you to sleep. All amenities needed to enjoy the island including beach chairs, ice chest, sunscreen, snorkel gear and so much more. Fully stocked kitchen if you want to prepare your own meals. A few negatives were that there was no beach access that we could locate , but no biggie, we just hopped in our car and drove to one and there are plenty of beautiful beaches to choose from. Also was bummed that I couldnt see a sunset, the mountain blocked it but I could catch a glimpse of it. The view, the amenities make up for it all and I would absolutely stay here again!

Kauai Vacation
We had a wonderful time celebrating our grandson’s first birthday in Kauai. The location of the condo is superb. The view from the patio is amazing. Dolphins, turtles and those sunsets were spectacular. The layout of the condo is perfect for a family and the kitchen is well stocked and very functional. The condo is well loved and due for some updates. The patio is in need of repairs. The condo was dirty upon our arrival which was disappointing. We are looking forward to our next trip to Kauai

We had a awesome stay! Everything was perfect! We love this location and this place was no exception! The unit is perfectly stocked even with coolers, beach chairs, towels and snorkel gear. Views are incredible! We even had massage therapist come and do massages on the patios! This was a girls trip with my best friends and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Highly recommend and we will most definitely be back!!

Incredible Puu Poa
This was our second stay in these condos and our first in #305. The private entry opens into a spacious deck off the master, so you are able to listen to the sound of the crashing surf lull you to sleep. The furnishings are comfortable, well appointed and spotlessly clean as is the entire unit)The Kitchen is superbly stocked with every conceivable item you need to cook at home, all the while staring out to the open sea.The second deck is off the living area, very spacious with two loungers and a table to eat at . You WON’T want t eat anywhere else!
The location is wonderful, just a short drive to Hanalei Bay village and Beach. I was prepared to say you cocudn’t ask for any more other than a few beach things, but half way through the stay, I opened a closet with anything you could want for a long day exploring the beaches, from boogie boards, to snorkeling equipment to coolers. If you want a luxurious, worry free escape in Princeville check out Rober’ts home. He was delightful to work with and the check in was seamless!

Pu'u Poa Vacation Home is wonderful to stay at!
The rental experience was quite good overall. Facilities were adequately clean and everything worked as well as could be expected. But the view from this lanai was exceptional and the trade breezes kept the place cool the entire time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Puu Poa 305 and we would stay here again! The bedding was in good shape. All amenities, appliances and kitchen utensils were in good condition! The patio bbq was in good working order. The beach chairs came in handy, however, a beach umbrella would also have been useful!

Best view on the North shore. Condo and pool were as advertised but the building is showing its age. The unit needs some TLC to bring it up to 5 stars.

Nice stay
We enjoyed our stay at this unit located in Pu'u Poa condos in Princeville, even if the weather didn't always cooperate. Beds were comfortable, and the kitchen and grill allowed us to cook when we wanted. A closet full of beach supplies and close proximity to the public steps that lead down to Hanalei Bay were a nice touch.

Hideaway dream
We stayed in the Puu Poa condos for 5nights in December during Xmas. The condo is an excellent location, excellent ocean views. Surf out the front, close to local shops, Hanelai Bay. The condo was extremely well appointed, with everything we could ever need. Very, clean, spacious and tidy. We had a minor issue with the TV however management staff responded immediately and resolved the issue. I would highly recommend 305 Puu Poa. We look forward to returning again some day. Thank you

Great stay in Princeville
My wife and I stayed in this condo for 4 nights during our visit to Kauai. The condo is located in an ideal spot, with easy access to all north shore activities and adjacent resorts. Hideaways Beach is a short walk away and was very nice.
The unit was clean upon arrival and had everything we needed. The view is spectacular and is clearly the highlight of the condo. Only complaints would be a few of the dishes were a little dirty and hadn't been cleaned all that well. Also, do know having no AC can get uncomfortable. We managed but between 12-5 it gets hot. We were usually out of the unit during these times so it was okay but I might try to find a unit with AC for our next visit. The appliances also didn't work very well - some of our food spoiled the first night because the fridge couldn't keep cool. The condo could use a little updating - it's got a little bit of a 90s vibe going on . Those are just nitpicky things and overall it was a very nice stay. We might book again here in the future.

Location, location, location...
With two large lanais directly overlooking the ocean, this 2 bedroom condo was ideal for us during the 8 nights we were there in Feb 2013. We are a family of three with one adult child who joined us on this trip. One night we walked over the St. Regis for drinks, another day my husband and son played golf on the Makai course which is also within walking distance. Condo is nicely furnished with an adequately equipped kitchen. It has a jacuzzi in the master bath and I was thankful there was another bath that we didn't have to share with my son. Every night we went to sleep listening to the crashing surf. It was lovely. Parking was ample for two cars.

Awesome stay in Princeville
This is my second trip to Kauai. The first time we stayed at St. Regis next door. While it clearly is a reputable and amazing resort, I found our stay at the condo to be above and beyond. It's very spacious and even has 2 balconies. As far as location, you can't beat it. Close to some cool beaches and only 10 minutes from downtown Hanalei. The hosts provide a clean and well equipped place. I would definitely return!

Very nice condo with spectacular views. Watched whales and surfers enjoying the water. Trail to beach was treacherous but if you survived the climb, the beach was great. Condo had beach towels, snorkel gear and boogey board. Nice place to spend a few relaxing days,

Fabulous Condo-Perfect Location
A beautiful, comfortable, spacious and well equipped condo in a great location, lots of balcony/deck/lana'i space and a wonderful view of the ocean. The owners have thought of everything. Two bedrooms, wake up to a perfect day in paradise from the main bedroom.Part of the Princeville precinct this is the place to be, with Hanalei Bay and Tunnels Beach about a 15 minute by car and a small shooping centre a 5 min drive. A short but steep walk to a beautiful beach below. Our sta of 5 nights was too short and we would definitely stay here again! Greg and Kim, Australia

Cute Slice of Paradise
Although I will say the property listing photos could definitely use an update, we were mostly satisfied with our stay in Puu Poa 305. The location and views are fantastic and ideal if you need to be in Princeville. The amenities were mostly as described with the exception of a coffee grinder we never found. The property was clean upon arrival, and the small interactions we had with management were fantastic. Overall we had a great trip and ended up spending a great deal of time in Hannalei as it was a quick hop away. For the price you really can't beat a stay here and we would gladly return.

Nice condo with a great view
My wife and I stayed here for a week recently on our trip to Hawaii. We loved staying here. The view was great. You could leave the windows open at night and fall asleep to the ocean waves. The owners have everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The complex itself was kept up well and had a great location. We would stay here again on our next trip.

Beautiful Condo in Paradise
What a spectacular location! Just a short walk from the St. Regis and with access to a public beach, you can't beat the location of the Puu Poa! The condo itself was great - spacious, clean and very well outfitted. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen
was very well equipped. There are a number of great beach amenities including beach chairs, snorkel gear, and boogie boards. Do yourself a favour and spend a few nights here, you won't be disappointed.

5 STAR LUXURY ACCOMMODATIONS
We just returned from a three week family vacation to Hawaii in celebration of our 25th wedding anniversary, wrapping up week long stays on Kauai, Maui and Oahu. We have been very fortunate to have traveled the world, but Kauai has always held a very special
place in our hearts as Lumahai Beach is where I proposed to my wife on our very first visit there back in 1984. Three children and 11 trips later (our 9th staying in a Princeville property), the Holleran's Puo Poa vacation condo has been the best accommodations
to date, by far. The property truly exceeded our expectations...very well kept, beautifully decorated (especially the artwork!), equipped with high end furnishings throughout, and very open and airy with magnificent views. Whether on a trip to the other side
of the island, or just a nearby visit to Hanalei Beach, it was always reassuring to know in the back or our minds that at the end of the day we would be returning to our truly luxurious Puo Poa accommodations. Kauai was our first stop, followed by oceanfront
property stays on Maui then Oahu...but our three kids (14, 18 & 21) all kept mentioning the whole time how much more they had enjoyed our stay on Kauai, which I'm certain was due in very large part to our wonderful accommodations. We have found our ideal Kauai
vacation rental, and look forward to staying here again on all subsequent visits. Thanks to the owners for sharing their slice of heaven with us!

The apartment was excellent great location everything we needed was there the view was fantastic, shops were a short drive down the road or if you enjoy walking they are reachable by foot yes there was a few minor issues with one of the light fittings but overall the apartment met our expectations thankyou for allowing us to experience your treasured little area of this world we will be back in the future. The whole rental experience was professionally done with back up correspondence all the way to our return home.

Paradise at an affordable rate!
We had an awesome time at Pua Poa # 305! The view was excellent and even when it rained and we stayed in it was awesome. The rental agency was very helpful (we needed to rent baby gear and they helped to set that up - Kauai Baby Gear was great!!) and it was a smooth process. They actually had a Pack n Play at the unit, which would have been nice to know, but it ended up being nice having two. The pull out sofa was actually comfy, and we were missing linens so the housekeeper drove all the way from Lihue to bring us some sheets! So nice! Everything was clean and nice, and very livable for a family. 10 days were not enough... Need to return soon!

Fantastic Condo and Stay
The condo was exactly as described. The view spectacular. Made the mistake of not taking the challenge to access the beach below the condo until the last day. It is the very best. Practically had the beach to our-self. Already missing hearing the waves and the breeze. Condo was well equipped, quite, and clean. Would/hope to come back!
