About this property

Cute, Peaceful Budget-Minded Studio Condo with full kitchen and Hawaiian Decor

Located on the Princeville Resort Makai Golf Course, this peaceful, Hawaiian style 600 Sq Ft condo has a private lanai, dedicated parking and a pool on site. Between the golf course and the lanai is the Queen's Carriage tree tunnel trail where you can walk in about 5 minutes to a secluded stretch of Anini Beach where you can swim and snorkel. Numerous world class surf spots including Hanalei Bay, Anini Beach, and Kalihiwai Beach are a 10 minute drive. You can walk to the Princeille Shopping Center, the Princeville Library, or the park in 10 minutes or less.



Recently remodeled with a brand new bathroom and kitchen, new furniture and Island style décor, this is one of the better deals in Princeville. There is a privacy wall by the bed separating the bed from the living area. The kitchen has a dishwasher, a washer & drier, an electric stove, a microwave, a coffee maker, a blender, and a toaster and is stocked with a variety of kitchen utensils, place settings for 8, and a full size refrigerator. We are located in the back of Paniolo in one of the most peaceful locations. Our quaint condo is the perfect romantic getaway for couples.

Perfect vacation retreat
What a great little condo: Perfect location-able to walk to stores, walking paths, a trail down to the beach. We really appreciated the cleanliness and calm. The kitchen was well-equipped, bed comfy, bathroom spacious. Don't hesitate to choose this condo for all or some of your island stay- this is a great launching pad to enjoy all the island has to offer and provides a comfrotable retreat to rest and recharge!

Amazing space!
My boyfriend and I had an amazing stay. The studio apartment was perfect for us and allowed us to completely relax. The apartment had an umbrella, chairs, snorkel gear, and anything you need for the beach. I was so shocked by that! The location is unmatched. We were able to walk to the Princeville farmers market on Saturday as well as walk to the market when we needed to. We sat on the deck, enjoyed the greenery, and it made our vacation a complete ease.

Adorable and Affordable
This is a great place and I'd stay here again anytime. The traditional Hawaiian decor was great and the birdsong in the morning was so nice. Super clean, helpful host. And I appreciated the beach gear that was available. Great location on the north shore, just 10 minutes from Hanalei.

The studio was perfect for two people and in a great location to explore the north and east parts of Kauai. The owner was very responsive and checkin and parking were straightforward. Looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Anniversary Trip
My wife and I had a great stay for our tenth anniversary. The area was fantastic and we had everything we needed. I appreciated the communication from the host as there were some disruptions that occurred that were outside her control. Additionally she reimbursed us for some times when there was construction on the second floor. Overall we loved our stay and would return.

Wonderful location, excellent property!
The pictures are accurate, but can't really give you the full feeling of roominess that you get when you enter the condo. It is listed as a studio, but the separation of the bedroom area with a screened wall makes it feel like a one bedroom apartment! It is nicely furnished and very clean. It has the best bed we have ever had at a rental. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals, and the dining area is large and separate from the kitchen. The bathroom is large with a walk in shower! The birds and flowers on the property were amazing to photograph. The swimming pool is a short walk from the front door and has a community bbq. Assigned parking is a big plus! The path behind the unit (you don't see it because of the shrubs) leads down to Anini Beach. The condo is located within walking distance of the market and several restaurants. A short ride in any direction will take you to the various restaurants within the resorts of Princeville! This is a perfect location! The property owner and the manager of the condo are very attentive and easy to reach if needed. We highly recommend this property!

A great vacation getaway in Princeville
We had a great stay here - the place was in a beautiful area of Kauai and we really had a great time. We hiked, kayaked, snorkelled, and just drank in the beauty of the island. We even didn’t mind the omnipresent chickens - albeit their 4:00 am wake-up calls were a bit ill-timed.

Our favourite place on our trip!
We did two weeks on Kauai- One week at Ward & Paula's, one week at a property on the south shore and one final property on Oahu. Ward & Paula's place in Princeville takes the cake. Had we done our trip in reverse and stayed at Ward & Paula's last I would have tried to convince my husband we needed to stay longer. Quiet property, walking distance to the grocery store and everything you would need. Wyllie's beach was a gem & was probably the best beach we visited for swimming (I wish we knew that before we came and we would have spent more time there). We loved coming "home" after a hot day of hiking and exploring and going for a swim. We had the pool to ourselves almost everyday, it was the perfect way to wind down. Thank you Ward & Paula for an exceptional stay. If I can convince my husband to travel for 15 hours by plane again we will be back & for longer!

Great Home Base
The apartment is nicely appointed, new shower/updated bathroom, updated kitchen, comfortable bed and furniture. There is a ceiling fan over the bed (lifesaver!) and another fan in the main living area--we were never overheated or uncomfortable from a temperature standpoint, even with no AC as long as the fans were on. At the time of our stay (early June 2023) the golf course area out the back door was under construction, and with that, there was some construction noise. We did not find this disruptive as we spent most of time out of the condo and by the time we returned in the evening, the workers were done for the day. Communication with the owner was fast and great--they made some recommendations for us that were appreciated. There was some slight confusion regarding the check-in because the instructions posted on the VRBO app said to "turn left" upon entering the hall (it is actually a right turn to get to this unit) and VRBO gave different wi-fi info than what I got from the owner--I assume that info was for the other unit, as well. The wifi worked great the entire time we were there, the washer and dryer in the unit was definitely appreciated, and the parking was easy. We had ZERO problems with the rental and that's just the kind of thing we want! This unit is perfect for a couple. Quick access to everything on the north side of the island by car and walkable to several good places to eat. Great location for a laid back vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Maja & Paula Smith

Host profile image
I have been surfing since 1961 and still surf about 200 days per year. I retired from Santa Cruz City Schools in June of 2010. I like to surf, read, garden, and work on projects on the 10 ares where I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Paula is also retired and likes reading, a variety of crafts, walking, and the lounging around the tropics (which works for me). We both love to travel.

Why they chose this property

We love the North Shore of Kauai which is amazingly green, littered with spectacular waterfalls, blessed with a slow pace, and still somewhat rural. It also has some of the best surf spots and beaches in the world. We were looking for a quiet and peaceful condo on the North Shore within walking distance of the beach and a short jaunt to a variety of surf spots. We also appreciate that is is less than 40 miles from the airport and the town of Lihue.

What makes this property unique

Our condo is in the back of our small complex off of the street. We enjoy sitting on our peaceful lanai with beautiful views of the golf course in the foreground and mountains in the background. Fifteen feet from our lanai, there is a dirt, tree-lined pathway that leads to a relatively secluded beach which we can walk to in about 5 minutes. We can also walk to Princeville shopping center in about 10 minutes and drive to Hanalei bay in less than 10 minutes. We often hang around the lovely pool located 50 feet from the front door of our condo. On Friday afternoons we often drive 5 minutes to the Hanalei Bay Resort to listen to Hawaiian music during happy hour.
