Alii Kai 1201 is a light-filled, open concept, classic Hawaiian getaway in the heart of Princeville! Your home-away-from-home has two comfortably furnished bedrooms, a well appointed living and dining area, and a fully stocked kitchen. From the wraparound private lanai you’ll be able to enjoy both sides of Kauai, quite literally, with views out to the ocean from one end, and the mountainous, waterfall speckled landscape from the other.
You'll find yourself in the perfect jumping off point for exploring the island at Alii Kai 1201. Anini Beach is just 15 minutes away, and has crystal clear waters that are perfect for snorkeling! You might also catch a glimpse of a 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 Hanalei town is right nearby, and has a variety of boutiques and delicious restaurants and cafes for all your shopping and dining needs. 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. 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! 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 Alii Kai complex is also perfect for a true staycation if you prefer to truly chill out! Spend a day by the complex pool lounging in the sun, and enjoying a picnic lunch at the shady clubhouse, or have an impromptu barbecue on the gas grill. The grounds are also beautifully situated on the bluffs, and have gorgeous views you can enjoy while taking a stroll.
Looking to explore other parts of the island? Drive time to the South Shore is roughly 75 minutes, and to the East Side (where the airport is located) is 55 minutes.
As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned, however there are ceiling fans in each room and screen doors on the lanai to help with airflow.
This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down one flight of stairs from the parking lot to the front door. 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.

This place was a beautiful haven for celebrating my birthday with my mom. First time Kauai, wasn’t sure what to expect, love the location, the view is everything. Super clean and pristine and spacious. It’s at the end of the road so it’s very quiet (except the roosters). The kitchen is a little outdated in terms of the wood and counters but the view and the overall zen energy makes up for it. Great simple decor and feng shui. do wish they supplied a few kitchen amenities such as cooking oil salt pepper the basics that a lot of other places offer, some kind of water filter, coffee etc. The beach chairs and towels are a nice perk. King bed is super comfy and soft, Murphy bed a little firmer. It was nice to have two bathrooms and laundry access... Would totally come back again, fabulous experience.

This was a wonderful condo in Princeville. Well appointed, super comfy couch, nice kitchen and spacious overall.The master bedroom was very nice with it's own bathroom and the bed was comfortable (slightly soft, but very supportive). Linens were also very nice.The 2nd bedroom had a comfortable mattress as well but the frame is squeaky. 2nd bath also very nice.The ceiling fans in every room were incredible and really moved the air well. Windows/doors on both sides allowed for good airflow and breezes to come through, not to mention gorgeous mountain views from every room and a small view of the ocean from the kitchen dining area. Sunsets and sunrises were really nice. It's a very quiet complex as well which was nice at the end of the road so no speeding traffic. Would absolutely recommend to friends/family. Not the property's fault but be aware the roosters really are EVERYWHERE and they like to sit below the windows and crow starting at about 3 am. Ear plugs were very handy.

In planning for a destination wedding near Kilauea we were looking for guest accommodations. This was a great choice. The condo was clean and ready when the rental agent said it would be.

The bed was super comfortable, unless you like a firm mattress, I slept like a baby hardly noticed the roosters after the first night. A newer Fridge with a great ice maker was awesome as was the washer and dryer. Location was great not perfect but great. Bedroom view of the mountains was beautiful. We were steps away from Turtle caves which did not disappoint on any day or time if day. It was a fabulous stay , not the Ritz but worth the cost. One small problem with a ceiling fan but it should be taken care of soon.

The condo was very clean and comfortable and the staff responded very quickly to a maintenance issue. I liked cooking with the new ceramic fry pan.

Very clean with comfortable beds and tropical breezes always keeping the rooms comfortable. Would have enjoyed bigger lanai so 4 of us could eat around a table. More information about the area would be helpful - such as the Adirondack chairs near the cliff for whale watching. Hard to correspond about non-working tv due to the large amount of cellular dead spots on the island. Texting would have been better than phone calls.

The rental was on the second floor and corner of an apartment complex. It was clean and comfortable. the washer and dryer were in great shape. The views were awesome. The master bedroom and lanai are where you wake up and see the views of the mountains. The dining and kitchen are ocean views. The dishes, silverware and cookware were clean and nice. Short drives to Hanalei and Anini beaches. We would stay here again. We rank it a 5/5.

GOOD: Location was ideal, upstairs corner unit facing breathtaking mountains & the sea! Basic pool area nearby. Facility & grounds beautiful & well maintained. Condo was easy to find - read the app instructions. Easy parking & check-in. Door uses a code, really convenient. Unit was very clean & well stocked. Kitchen had everything but a cutting board. Toilet paper/paper towels/dish/laundry/bath soaps provided. Fridge/washer/dryer fairly new & there’s a working dishwasher. Soft organic cotton bedsheets. Lots of bath/kitchen towels & drawer/closet space. BAD: Reviews mentioned primary king bed was too soft - Manufacturer’s tag dated 1998, unusable! Had to sleep on queen Casper murphy bed in extra room but took mattress off the very squeaky frame. After 4 days corresponding w/the property manager, they eventually agreed to a partial refund & replacing it asap. UGLY: Photos on VRBO site made this place look well-maintained & stylish, but it’s in SERIOUS need of an update. Lighting is VERY harsh, aggressive high-wattage cool bulbs w/blinding intensity. Design felt neglected. Old/mismatched/unstylish furniture covered in watermarks & rust. Cabinets/countertops/backsplashes relics of the 80s. Couch was a comfy newer addition(no colorful accent pillows.) Takeaway: Amazing location & great stay despite avoidable issues. Place needs love & attention! If bed replaced & the lighting addressed, we would def stay here again, if property manager would have us. Mahalo & Aloha!

Our second stay in this quiet condo complex, although first stay in this particular second-story unit. No elevator, so be prepared to carry up your luggage. Liked the numbered door lock, so did not have to carry a key. Comfortable unit. Appreciated the well-furnished kitchen and the beach supplies. Nice flat-screened TVs. Especially comfortable mattress topper. Great views of the ocean and the mountains from the L-shaped patio. Easy to get to Hanalei and the other beaches further north. Later stayed in a Poipu rental, so didn't have to do too much driving. Would stay here again.

This is a great property. Everything about this condo is reported accurately, no hidden surprises. Well equipped and very comfortable, maybe one or two more beach towels, other than that perfect. We will request it again.👍
