Note About Seasonal Gnats We want to ensure guests are aware that during the winter months in Hawaii, gnats are naturally more prevalent due to the tropical climate. These tiny insects are attracted to light and are especially common in lush, green areas like ours. While we take every measure to maintain the property, their presence is a natural part of the environment and beyond our control. To minimize their impact during your stay: Keep doors and windows closed as much as possible. Ensure screens are securely in place. Please note, however, that some gnats are so small they may get through even the finest mesh screens. We appreciate your understanding as you experience the natural beauty of Hawaii’s unique ecosystem.

Amazing property! Plenty of room. Appreciated the air conditioning in the bedrooms for sleeping, but the Kauai breeze made the rest of the house comfortable. Well appointed house with many amenities (dishes/glasses/silverware for 16, beach chairs, towels, beach umbrellas, etc.). Loved the pool! Would recommend to anyone! ##### Patricia L. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cynthia R. 28 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Space for Family If you are looking for a great home to spend with your family in Princeville then this is the place. Had everything you needed and more. Space was ideal for our family traveling with a baby. Yen, the property contact was awesome. Very accommodating when needed. The management company also offered concierge services to add to the experience. Pool was a great addition although didn't really get to use it much. Nice overall quiet location. Next to a park that offered a Saturday Farmers Market. Only drawback, downstairs flooring is a polished flagstone that made it very rough on the feet and concerning for an infant crawling. Although the baby didn't seem to mind much but we did, tender feet. ;) However, overall we had a great time. We would stay there again. ##### Cynthia R. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne B. 9 Jan 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Housekeeping Location and management of the stay were all excellent. Our only real issues had to do with housekeeping. When we arrived there were two bathrooms that were not clean. Shower had "hairball" in drain, another had unclean toilet and wall around toilet. The living room rug had cracker crumbs all over it. The most DANGEROUS issue was the condition of the bbq - the grease trap and grille had not been cleaned and caused a flash fire when first lit. Could have been a very significant fire affecting the house itself, Minor issues - television and oven/microwave need printed instructions. ##### Suzanne B. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kaye D. 16 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Kauai Dream House This house was everything described and more! We first got there in the pouring rain. This one lasted maybe 10 minutes. 🤣 The longest shower we had all week! The little rain catchers around the property were great sounding and fun to watch. The pool was perfect to have with our 5 and 9 year old boys. It made things very easy for us to end busy days touring or at the beach (Hanalei Bay like 15 minutes away) by jumping into the pool upon returning. There was even an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand! Perfect temperature and perfect setting for the adults to watch. This was the only problem I had personally as a senior. The steps down to the pool from the patio and into the water were deeper than I could handle without assistance. Maybe there could be some type of handrail for each that wouldn’t hurt the beautiful scenery? There were 8 of us and we all had plenty of room! We had a fantastic time and would love to return! ##### Kaye D.

The home was very clean and well stocked. A lot of extra towels, beach towels and the kitchen had everything except a waffle maker. Very well stocked for a rental kitchen. It also had a lot of beach chairs and a ping pong table. The pool was small, however everyone enjoyed it. The outside area was wonderful to play games at night. We had a wonderful time!! ##### Kathleen K.
