About this property

Relaxing island charm at quiet upstairs unit, walk to everything

Paniolo 210A - this lovely Balinese themed Paniolo vacation rental is a comfy, convenient, and tranquil home base for your exploration of Kauai. It's an upstairs unit, quiet and away from the road, very close to the path to Anini beach and to the walking path through Princeville. Start your day with a walk along the greenbelt enjoying rainbow, waterfall, and golf course views in the cool morning air. Follow the greenbelt path all the way to the end and enjoy a relaxing oceanfront brunch or spa treatment at 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay; it's the perfect way to spend a morning. Take a 15 minute hike along the path to Anini Beach for a swim and stop in at the Westin on your way back to grab a coffee at Starbucks or lunch either indoors or out. Stroll over to the park on Saturday mornings for the outdoor market; you're sure to find something there that you love! The Princeville center, with grocery shopping, wine shop, and restaurants, is an easy walk. Hanalei, one of the most amazing spots on earth - whether you like beach, shopping, dining, or all of the above! - is a 10 minute drive.

This restful condo is lovely for a couple, but there's also room to bring the family. The main studio level has a king size bed, and the loft upstairs is furnished with two twin beds. You'll enjoy a full bathroom and full kitchen, plus in-unit washer and dryer. Beach towels, beach chairs, a beach umbrella and a cooler are provided for your convenience. Enjoy the shared complex pool and barbecue grill.

While children 5 years and older are welcome, this property is not suitable for younger children as it was built to earlier code requirements and it may be possible for young children to fit between the rails on the lanai.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned, but you'll find the cooling tropical tradewinds keep you comfortable and let you enjoy the scent of the fresh sea air.

This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down stairs. There are no elevators.

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

Quiet and lovely outlook

We enjoyed this property @ the lush and laidback north part of the island. Foodland very close and lots of eateries nearby and @ Hanalei. Caution: the stairs to the loft beds is narrow and steep

Too Many Unpleasant Surprises

We are experienced travelers and have stayed in VRBOs around the world on many occasions. We booked the Paniolo unit in Princeville for 3 weeks based on previous reviews and photos. Unfortunately we found a number of things lacking. The vacuum cleaner did not work and there was nothing to wash floors with. To the management companies’ credit they had us buy a mop which was reimbursed and they provided a mid-stay cleaning. However for a 3 week stay we would expect to have had a working vacuum. On the Friday of our second week we received a phone call that our windows needed closing immediately as our unit was going to be power washed within the next half hour. The following week without any notification painters arrived and commenced to cover all our windows and deck door with plastic in preparation to paint. Because of the ongoing painting our deck (lanai) was not useable for most of the last week of our stay and without airflow in our unit for two days, our unit was very hot. Again, to management’s credit, we received some compensation for the inconvenience, but the lack of communication was unacceptable.Three of the glass window slats in the kitchen were missing. This was not an issue until we had a bit of a wind storm and dust and debris blew in covering the sills and counters. Even though the management company eventually responded to some of our concerns, overall the number of issues made for a disappointing stay.

Princeville stay

We spent most of our time in Hanalei Bay. This condo was in a good location to access that easily. There was a shopping center nearby for a restaurants and supermarket.The condo was nice and it had easy access to a little trail behind the deck. There was a rooster that like to crow.

Location was great, but the property needs some love.

We appreciated the location, walkability, nearby stores, and management company who addressed our requests promptly. Sadly, the requests to repair the toilet, and provide baking and paper towels, should be addressed before our arrival. We will be back in the Princeville area, just not at this property.

Missing the small details.

Great location. But understand that the place is 40 plus years old and the upkeep on the unit is average.

A lovely, relaxing place to stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed out stay at Paniolo 210A. It was clean, private, and the lanai was a lovely place to sit and relax. The pool was handy and refreshing after a day of activity. I couldn't give a full five stars on maintenance because the dryer didn't work, but management was easy to deal with and they had someone out to fix it right away. The only other problem was one of the glass louvers in a kitchen window fell when we opened it because it had no bracket. The only other thing I would say is the lighting over the table was inadequate to do any writing of postcards or reading of maps. Overall, we enjoyed the calm, relaxed atmosphere and the apartment was a welcoming place to come home to after a busy day.

Adequate space with a good location

When pulling into the property, there was a truck blocking my assigned space. Upon entering the unit, it smelled of stale cigarette smoke. It took the owner longer than overnight to get back to me. When trying to open all the windows to address the smell, I noted that the blinds were quite dusty/dirty. The fridge didn’t have a door handle. The path to the ocean described in the listing is overgrown, and I’m used to hiking. It is well located to Princeville Cemter, which is great.

It was wonderful

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: Everything was wonderful. Just couldn't have been better. We went on the walking path every morning when it was nice and cool and took the path down to the beach one day. We worried before we got there that it would be too hot without air conditioning but it wasn't at all, there's a good aire that comes through when you open the glass doors. The deck is nice to relax in the evening with a cocktail and relax after going around all day. would recommend.
