About this property

Great ocean view, hike to Anini Beach, walk to shopping/dining

Enhanced COVID cleaning and disinfecting procedures for every check-in.

Stroll across the little foot bridge to the Westin and find a Starbucks, a small convenience store, and dining options. The Princeville shopping center - with its numerous shopping and dining selections including grocery store and wine shop - is just 0.9 miles away, either a quick little drive or a pleasant 15 minute walk. You'll enjoy the ocean, mountain, and golf course views from Puamana, and there's a swimming pool as well. The scenic beaches of north shore Kauai are just minutes can be lying on the warm white sand of Hanalei Bay in 10 minutes!

This comfortable, roomy Kauai condo provides two bedrooms and two baths on two floors. Upstairs is a large loft with queen bed and a full bathroom with both tub and shower. There's a comfortably furnished sitting area, perfect if you're traveling with teenagers or grandparents who want their own space for lounging. The sofa in the loft sitting area opens to a queen size bed. Downstairs you'll find an upgraded kitchen with granite countertops that's open to the dining and living areas. Dining table seats 4 people, and there's extra seating for three more at the kitchen island. The living room is comfortably furnished and includes a flat screen television with cable. Free wifi is also provided. Also on the downstairs level is the master bedroom with queen bed, and the master bathroom with tub and shower. Additional amenities provided include beach towels, beach chairs and beach umbrella.

ABOUT PUAMANA: Guests can enjoy a 2 minute walk to the Westin Resort with its Starbucks, bar, restaurants, and wine tasting. These Princeville condos are comfortable and spacious, with private lanais, full kitchens, and large upstairs lofts along with many upgrades and charming personal touches. Free parking is available quite close to your door (one reserved space per unit).

About Anini Beach: Anini is the longest and widest reef in the Hawaiian Islands and because of the unique conditions, the beach usually has well protected waters and some of the most consistently good conditions for safe water activities. There is no lifeguard posted at Anini Beach, but it is still considered to be one of the safer beaches on north shore Kauai. Generally uncrowded, at Anini Beach visitors can enjoy snorkeling, beach walks, picnicking, paddle boarding and wind surfing. The beach path from Princeville to Anini Beach is a beautiful walk with scenic views and takes just a few minutes from our Princeville vacation rentals at Puamana. The path can be slippery following rain.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned.

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.

Great princeville condo

Princeville condo was a convenient north shore location for various activities including a short walk to the princeville Haena hiking shuttle. Great space for our family and nice porch. One issue at check in the rental co dealt with quickly. Would stay again!

Paradise Found

The location of the Condo in Princeville is perfect, restaurants and groceey store. The views from your balcony are gorgeous. Small hime down a tree covered trail and you are at your own private beach for swimming and snorkeling you can see fish and turtles. You are just minutes away from Hanalei which has one of most beautiful beaches to relax on, swim and boogie board. There is tons of shopping, and restaurants in Hanalei.

A Place to Return to

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: When we arrived on the island it was dark, so our morning wake up call was such a pleasant surprise. The views of the ocean and golf course from our unit was breathtaking. We felt like we won the lottery. Additionally, the place exceeded our expectations. The decorations were classy, kitchen well stocked, and everything was spotless. This is a quiet area (except for the local roosters) with many places to explore.We appreciated the contact from the rental agency with an upcoming weather system that took out power for a few hours and knocked out the internet for a day. They were quick to respond to our questions and concerns. I would recommend this unit to anyone wanting to stay in Princeville. It has the best views of any of the surrounding places we saw.

Perfect place!

This place was hands down the best property!! From the location to every detail in the home we couldn’t have asked for anything more. We loved all the extra items this place had on hand like the ice chest, beach wagon, sun umbrella, rain umbrellla, beach towels, beach chairs…. The list goes on. Kauai is our new favorite island and I will always stay at this place! The absolute best!

Decent stay, but would look elsewhere next time...

The unit is nicely updated, well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. As others have mentioned, it does get very warm in the unit, and even with fans going it doesn't cool down until well after dark. We were very aware of no A/C as mentioned in the listing, but were still a little surprised at how hot it got upstairs. Our issue was that the fridge didn't work properly upon our arrival and there was little assistance/concern from the management company. They were slow to respond or just didn't respond, and then never followed up to make sure it was properly working or to let us know it had been fixed. We went two days without a working fridge, so the food we bought went bad. We planned to eat in to save some money. When we mentioned having to throw out food, all we got was an, "oh sorry". Also, the water/ice dispensers and ice maker were disconnected. I would not rent this unit unless you have been assured that the fridge has been replaced, as I saw a previous review also mention issues.

Best apartment ever!

We loved our stay. The condo was in a lovely area on the best part of the island. The space was perfect for lounging and cooking, especially with that gorgeous view! Both bedrooms were very private and it was a very nice place to spend the week!

Cozy

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was overall beautiful and cozy. It had basic supplies to get us through the trip. When we arrived I forgot there was no air conditioner, we ended up not using the bedroom upstairs after one night. They did however provided us plenty of fans to use. Overall we felt safe, enjoyed the pool, close to stores. When we arrived it was late, it was after business hours, myself and others couldn’t find our place and had trouble locating it, it would be nice if there was someone to talk to or more direction in locating the house.

Princeville

We had issues with the refrigerator. Maintenance came and said it was fixed but it wasn’t. Never made ice so we kept buying it. Also the back lanai could have been more pleasant but the wire try to keep the birds out was ripped so they were there all the time making nests. Reported an issue with one window but never got a response. The location was great. I would recommend this complex.

Awesome condo

We stayed at this property for almost two weeks. Everything was just great . Let me start with the view . It was amazing! We saw whales from our balcony! The entire condo was stocked really good. We had plenty of towels and blankets. The kitchen was also fully stocked. We had such a good experience! We will definitely be back again. I was pleasantly surprised that management called us to make sure we got the code to get in before we even got there and checked with us again after we arrived. I really appreciated that. Yes, there was a construction going on , but it didn’t bother us much.

Puamana Unit 16B Princeville

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit is completely redone and spacious with a glorious view. It is also well stocked. During our January 2024 stay, the entire condominium property was undergoing major repairs (new roofs) and they were working on building 15 and building 16. We endured a crane and dumpster parked in front of our building as well as workers pounding on the clay tiles and roof of our building. We also had a bug infestation (roaches and ants) during our stay, which required two pesticide treatments. The normal parking area was inaccessible and there was a ladder and a pile of broken clay tiles blocking the front entry. We took pictures of the mess and sent a daily update to rental agency. I would not recommend staying at any unit of the Puamana condos during the construction, which has been going on since 2020.

Stayed here with my wife and toddler and this place was perfect. It has a great view over the golf course. It is also close to groceries and shops in Princeville, or Hanalei if you're looking for a bit more variety. There's a walkable beach as well as many more that are a short drive away.

Clean, updated, and well-stocked

Puamana 16B was great for our crew of four. The unit is very professionally managed and is a standout rental in terms of being well-stocked with essentials. The array of beach gear was a huge plus and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. The unit isn't large, but it was more than enough space for our family of four. As other reviewers have noted, the only downsides might be 1) the lack of AC—although we managed just fine during a pretty warm week. There are plenty on box fans, and with managing open/closed windows we stayed comfortable enough. 2) The smoker next door was a little annoying, but not nearly as bad as other reviewers seemed to indicate. The view from the lanai is spectacular and more than enough to make up for a periodic waft of smoke. Overall we thought the place was a solid rental.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great property. We would definitly stay here again. In case the property photos have not been updated, the upstairs loft is now divided into two rooms, so there was plenty of privacy for my two teens to have their own space. Our favorite part of the island is Hanalei, so staying on the north side was great for us.

Location good, unit was just ok

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Working with the property management company was seamless and easy. The unit itself left some things to be desired. Many units in the north do not have AC, so we assumed the trade winds would do the work. However, it was very warm. Between the chain-smoking neighbor to the left and the construction going on in the unit to the right, and the roosters 5 am wake up, it wasn't very enjoyable. The layout of the unit is quirky. Not enough floor space on the first floor, so luggage ended up in the main hallway entering the unit. The views were beautiful and the kitchen had everything we'd need to cook. Location was close to everything we wanted to do.
