Located on the seaside cliffs of Kauai’s beautiful North Shore, Ali'i Kai 4303 is a comfortable, top-floor retreat with the most incredible ocean views in every room! It's truly a whale watcher's dream come true. Inside you'll find two attractive bedrooms, each with their own ocean view picture windows, a homey and inviting living area, and a fully-equipped, beautifully updated kitchen. For those of us that aren't lucky enough to leave work on the mainland, you'll even find a well-lit desk in the master suite that makes the perfect home office. You'll also enjoy the dramatic views of the Pacific from the private balcony lanai, which is the perfect spot for enjoying a peaceful sunrise or sunset over the water.
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.
If running around on vacation isn't quite your style, the Ali'i Kai complex amenities have everything you need for a chilled out staycation. You can relax with a drink by the pool, fire up the gas grill for an impromptu barbecue, or go for a stroll around the beautifully landscaped grounds. You'll find several Adirondack chairs scattered about for you to take a rest and enjoy the surroundings and mild tropical weather.
For those looking to explore the rest of the island, or with activities planned in Lihue or on the South Shore, be sure to budget your time accordingly. Drive time to the East Side (where the airport is) is roughly 55 minutes, and to the South Shore is 75 minutes.
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 ...

The property had a great view, but the property manager was unresponsive. The cable box did not work, they sent maintenance who did not fix it, so he took the Roku box from bedroom--resulting in no tv in bedroom and only Roku streaming for the entire stay.
Did not supply enough toilet paper. We were staying for 14 days. Expected to buy ourselves--never had to do that at any other Vrbo property.
Kitchen had been remodeled, but the stove did not work well. Also, the stove & microwave control indicators had rubbed off so had to hunt to use both.
Beds and living room furniture were uncomfortable and virtually no décor compared to other places that I have stayed.

This property was perfect for our needs. The view was outstanding and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean was wonderful. The condo had everything we needed and was nice and quiet. We appreciated the boogie boards to use. If we travel back to Kaua’i we will book here again.

We have stayed on Kauai many times and in this set of condos(Ali Kai multiple times) but never this unit. Overall it was great - very clean & views were spectacular. The only issue we had was the furniture. There is no comfortable place to sit in the house except the beds(they were great). The lanai has cheap plastic chairs, making it difficult to be comfortable but also due to the low height hard to get a good view over the railing. We will be back to this area but not this particular condo.

This was an idyllic spot for our time on the North Shore of Kauai. We spent the days exploring and our evenings watching Hawaii-themed movies while listening to the rain and waves below. There is no A/C, as noted, so plan any hair drying with the excellent hair dryers accordingly!

If you are looking for a convenient location to Princeville and the North Shore with amazing ocean views from one side of the condo and amazing mountain views on the other, this is where you should stay. We had 4 adults (2 couples), the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked out perfectly. The kitchen was large enough for us all to move in and out without getting in each other's way. And again, as mentioned - the views are to die for.

We were upgraded to this property after the one we reserved had a leaky roof. The views are amazing. We were disappointed that there wasn't any AC, but the ocean breeze did a pretty good job keeping us cool. Although, I did wake up hot once in a while. The king-sized mattress in the primary suite was a little too firm for my taste. I asked the property managers if they had a mattress topper, or something, because it was causing me back and neck pain, but I never heard back from them. I ended up sleeping on the couch or in the spare room with my daughter. There's a lovely but steep hiking trail behind the condo to a turtle cave that I recommend you check out if it's not too muddy and slippery.

We would definitely recommend this place!

Could use kitchen towels and stove/microwave was difficult to run do to lack of instructions and wear on dials. Otherwise, the stY was wonderful.
