If you find yourself wanting for an activity other than soaking up the amazing views from the condo, Ali'i Kai 4303 is primed for you to take advantage of all the North Shore has to offer! Anini Beach is just 15 minutes away, and has crystal clear waters that are perfect for snorkeling! You might even catch a glimpse of a Honu (Hawaiian green sea turtle) while you're there. Hanalei Bay is also just 15 minutes away, and has beautiful golden sand beaches with calm waters perfect for all ages of swimmers. The charming island town of Hanalei is right nearby, and has a variety of boutiques and delicious restaurants and cafes for all your shopping and dining needs. Fresh fish dinner at the Dolphin followed by shave ice at Wishing Well will always be the perfect evening if you ask us! If you want a break from the crowds, we recommend heading to Kilauea, just 20 minutes down the road, to check out the iconic lighthouse and wildlife preserve, and to grab a coffee from any one of their cute cafes (Kai Bar and Trilogy are both excellent). If you prefer sticking a bit closer to home, the Princeville shopping center is just a mile away, and has plenty of options for shopping and grabbing tasty bites, as well as the Foodland grocery store for even more convenience! Stop by on a Saturday morning and you can hit the farmers market before heading over for the free hula show in the afternoon. The nationally ranked Makai golf course is also just a 10 minute walk away from your front door, and has some of the best golfing in the country.

The exterior entryway to this property is monitored by a security camera.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned, though there are fans in each room and screen doors on the lanai to help with air flow.

This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down two flights of stairs from the parking lot to the front door (roughly 22 steps). There are no elevators.

Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

Incredible location. The views were breathtaking! Spotless clean apartment and excellent area in Princeville. Shopping and sightseeing nearby! We cannot wait to come back!
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
Amazing place - great views and location! The views were unreal, and surrounding areas were beautiful! A lot to do within the area - trails, food and coffee trucks, farmers markets, etc. Will book again in the future when visiting the island :)The only hiccup that we can across was with the tvs and controls. All the control batteries were dead. They reached out the following day about this, and new batteries were brought by the next day! Thank you for hosting us again! :)
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
The condo was very clean and comfortable. We appreciated the extra things--beach towels, beach chair, a cooler, lots of ice trays and a few sundries--oil, flour, corn starch... The view was incredible and relaxing. The windows let in a wonderful breeze, but also blocked out sound if needed. Great location for exploring the Northern end. Be mindful to fill out the final contract that is emailed before arriving, because that releases the door code & all necessary information. Would stay again!!
6 / 10Average·May 2022
This condo is waaay beyond needing an update. Everything is original to the unit or close to it. Very worn living room furniture, as are the kitchen countertops, cupboards, dishwasher, etc. Both bathrooms need a complete overhaul, as well. If you can get past all of that, the view and roar of the ocean are amazing!
