This place is located in a great location. The place looks exact to the posting. The one thing that did bother us was the communication with the host. It was someone different each time and when the electric key pad for entry battery died we had to wait outside for an hour at night before they assisted. They even asked us to change the battery for them which to me was extremely odd. Besides that the place was great.

The place was nice. We never used the amenities due to site seeing. Our only complaint is if anyone is renting the upstairs you will hear every footstep and be woke up very early everyday. There was a 4 year old above us and you knew it.

Lovely Condo & Great Location

We loved our stay here! The location was perfect ! Close to Foodland for delicious Poke, an ice cream shop and not to far from someGreat hikes. The condo was clean with super cozy beds & the swimming pool was great too. If you’re like me and go to bed earlier than most I do recommend ear plugs and a sleep mask. Noise wasn’t too bad except for there was one extra excited kiddo who was running laps upstairs he did settle down after our first night stay and we proceeded to get great sleep and rest for the remainder of our trip.

Princeville Townhouse

We had a wonderful stay. The townhouse had all appliances and beach gear we needed. The only 2 problems we had were the step down to the livingroom and master bedroom was about 10” and a tripping hazard for our older friend. The other was the noisy upstairs neighbors, they stomped around and scooted chairs alot

Great place to stay

This was the most comfortable location we stayed at while on a 2 week trip to Hawaii. The condo has everything you need and is very comfortable with a 3 head mini split HVAC system that works flawlessly. The king bedroom was so comfortable, and the livingroom and patios are equally spacious and comfortable. They do seem to have a parking issue here, the spaces are tight (read you will have trouble parking anything larger than a 4runner) and quite a few folks using them. We couldn't find a spot to park one night. We would still stay here again and loved the place.

Mauna Kai Review

This is the fifth time we’ve visited Princeville and the first time for us to stay on the North shore. Options on VRBO were limited based upon the dates we were looking to book our vacation, and this unit wasn’t on the top of our list, but we booked it based upon our needs and availability. Overall decent experience. The unit layout is nice and large for a 2 bedroom. Older complex and all the units exterior look like they need to be refreshed with paint, etc. Had an issue with the freezer and reached out to the Management company and they said they’d address the concern, but never did. Also, there was an issue with the Master Bath shower as it wasn’t draining well and got worse during our stay. My wife ended up pulling out a massive (and disgusting) hairball out of the drain. You’d figure the cleaning crew would notice the drain issue during their cleaning process, but apparently not. Will we stay in Princeville again? Definitely. Would I book this unit again based upon our overall experience? No. PROS -Clean upon arrival -Nice décor -Good appliances -Safe location -Comfortable beds -Decent communication with Management CONS -Lower Level (and older construction) -No beach chairs or umbrellas provided -Lack of follow through with Management when we had a concern -Hairball

Amazing property! Super clean with all the amenities you need. The size was perfect for two couples and there was plenty of room for us to hangout inside while it was raining. Super nice and safe area with shops and beaches within walking distance. Property management came right over when we had a simple issue and were so nice! I would recommend this place to anyone, in fact we already have!
