Nihilani 26A [1]
Vacation stay
Reviewed on 2022-07-01 by , Portland, OR USThe condo was roomy and clean. It had everything we needed for our stay, including a well stocked kitchen with everything we needed to prepare our own meals. There were a few minor glitches (the ice maker was not working, etc.) but the rental agency took care of it right away. The beds were comfy and the air conditioning was definitely a plus. The condo is in Princeville on the beautiful north shore and made a great home base for our daily outings and explorations. There are plenty of beach towels and a couple of chairs and sand toys in the garage. We will definitely look to Hawaii Life again for our next Hawaiian vacation rental.

Paradise
Reviewed on 2022-02-09 by Jacob M. , Appleton, WI United StatesOur stay was better than expected. The Condo is beautiful and served our 4 adults and 2 teenagers well. The kitchen was well stocked and we thoroughly appreciated the beach supplies! Walking/running routes were easily accessible and so many beaches just a very short drive! The pool was refreshing and grills easily accessible. We prepared some memorable seafood dinners in the grill area! We would recommend the location to anyone looking for a beautiful, clean “home base” with comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen to prepare meals at home, and beach gear for relaxing days in the sunshine!

Reviewed on 2021-06-24 by , Montague, CA USClean, great location, plenty of room for the family. Only downside was the beach equipment could use some serious updating. Broken boogie boards, old beat up camping chairs.... Would have been nice to have some decent equipment on site to use. Had to rent our own. Oh and ice machine did not work. But, overall a great time and would stay there again.

Would Not Recommend This Condo or Management Company
Reviewed on 2019-03-11 by Valerie G. , Spring Lake, MI United StatesThis townhome was in a great location. It was not well maintained, the AC didn't work and it got well over 80 degrees every day, we had sliding doors that were so rusted they came off the track every time they were used, we had rusty patio furniture that ruined our clothes, the walls in the town home were all dirty, the master shower had mold and mildrew in all of the corners that someone tried to cover up with white caulk and Hawaii Life Real Estate Brokers didn't fix the AC during our entire 12 day stay, it was miserable. Eric Rafter at Hawaii Life has told me several times I would be getting an adjustment to the rent I paid, but I have yet to see it and we left three weeks ago. This is a reflection on VRBO also that they'd allow a rental in this state of disrepair in their inventory, particularly for the type of rent that was required. Don't Stay at 26A, it's in terrible condition!

Nice location, but a few hiccups
Reviewed on 2018-09-10 by , Atascadero, CA United StatesCons: Garage door didn't work properly. The garage door only rolled up about 2/3 the way. A few times, it didn't shut or roll up at all. Our SUV rental wouldn't fit unless I manually rolled up the garage door.
Parking is poor. We had two rental cars that barely fit into the garage (made even more difficult with the garage door not opening all the way). There is limited guest parking and absolutely no overflow/street/driveway parking. If you have two large vehicles or more than two vehicles, you're out of luck. We temporarily parked in a "guest" spot for about 4.5 hours and we had a warning ticket on our car window.
The ice dispenser didn't work at all.
The cable did not work on all three televisions. The main television in the living room wasn't a smart TV, so we were not able to use the TV in the living room. We didn't come here to watch TV, but we have two kids and the TV would have been a nice distraction a few times while we cooked or cleaned.
Wish there were more dishes and place settings. We had to run the dishwasher pretty frequently because we kept running out of certain things, like bowls and plates.
The room that was advertised as an office/media room did not have a door on it. We saw the futon in the advertised picture and assumed the room had a privacy door, like it was a bonus 4th bedroom. We were planning on having our 18 month old sleep in this room, but the room was wide open to the upstairs hallway and it didn't work out for any of us to sleep there due to the noise/lack of privacy.
It was a beautiful unit in a great location, but the parking/garage was a headache. It was disappointing to find out that the cable and ice dispenser didn't work con

Kauai Vacation
Reviewed on 2018-09-03 by , Fleming Island, FL United StatesAlthough we really did enjoy our semi-annual family reunion in Kauai, a damper was put on the event as we arrived to find a broken AC. With a family of allergy sufferers the AC was meant to do two things keep out pollen and keep us cool. It was fixed late morning the next day but by then most of us were feeling the effects of sleeping with the doors and windows wide open. I requested a refund for the night and was given a 1/3 refund back. In the future, I will make clear at the time of booking how important AC is to my family. Assuming it would work was the wrong assumption.
Manager's Response
Thank you for your comments. We are sorry that the a/c unit was not operable upon your arrival. I'm sure you were expecting a cool entry. Luckily, we were able to have it repaired the following day. We hope you were able to enjoy Kauai to it's fullest.
Amazing vacation stay in Nihilani 26A!
Reviewed on 2018-08-22 by Corina T. , Union City, CA United StatesThe property grounds are beautiful and well-kept. The pool was clean and the perfect temperature with lots of chairs, tables and bbq grills for the complex to use.
Our family of 5 stayed in 26A. This condo is absolutely gorgeous with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths + a den. The furniture & kitchen were all in great condition with updated/basically new appliances. **THE A/C WORKED PERFECTLY** & really made our stay comfortable & relaxing. The lanai was beautiful as well. There was enough towels + kitchen items + random miscellaneous items left by other guests (shampoos, condiments, etc). The garage had some fun beach gear (snorkels, fins, etc). We left a boogie surf board for the future guests of 26A to use :) Enjoy!!
My only recommendation would be to get some beach chairs & an umbrella for guests. We had family members stay next door in 26B and their condo came equipped with more beach stuff (beach mats, beach chairs, boogie surf boards).
Our stay was absolutely amazing! The rental process using VRBO was seamless start the finish. The communication was effortless and everything in the condo was described accurately. The property manager, Eric was thoughtful and left a hand-written card in the unit upon arrival. He was available via text for anything needed (we didn't need his help though - everything was perfect). <br/><br/>The property grounds are beautiful and well-kept.

Great condo!
Reviewed on 2018-07-01 by Rosann P. , Brea, CA United StatesStayed at the Nihilini 26A in June 2018 with my family of 5. It was a very roomy and clean condo. The condo is located approximately 1.3 miles from the Princeville shopping center and definitely walkable. It’s within walking distance to other beaches such as the beautiful Hideaways Beach (Approx 1.3 mile plus a short steep hike down a path to bottom of the beach). We went to the nearby beaches (Hanalei, Anini) quite a bit and it would have been nice if the condo had a small cooler and beach umbrella for guest use. The property manager Eric was very responsive, since our flight arrived early we were able to check in before 3 pm.

We also loved that we could walk to Queen's bath and amazing beaches nearby!

We are already planning our next visit to this island and will absolutely use Hawaii Life and also hope to reserve this unit. The only thing I would say is that the pool/spa hours are 9am-9pm. Many visitors are coming from time zones 3 hours ahead at a minimum. So everyone is up and ready to go at 0700. Earlier pool hours would have been nice, but that's a community decision and so just be aware for families with young active children. Otherwise, fabulous!!!

Reviewed on 2016-03-30 by Monica R. , Chagrin Falls, OH United StatesFor us, the location was ideal. With both a golfer and a tennis player in the family, access was an easy 10 minute, scenic walk. A great playground was a bit of a longer walk or an 2 minute car ride and had plenty of parking. Grocery store and Lappert's amazing ice cream was a 3 minute drive. I really couldn't ask for more in a location.
My one criticism is that our 5 yr old son was not aloud to bring any toys in the pool. Nothing beyond water wings (if needed) and goggles. The property manager means business and will NOT hesitate to point out any minor infractions of the numerous rules. I found this situation to be 1/2 understandable and 1/2 annoying. I guess it keeps things under control some point its also vacation for many of us (this neighborhood has many full time residents)
Overall great experience, would return but just be advised that there are a lot of rules and really active kids with lots of energy may find it challenging to not get in trouble at the pool.

Reviewed on 2016-01-25 by , Newburyport, MA United StatesThe condo is spacious, clean & well-equipped. Good beach supplies--chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, beach towels. We enjoyed the pool & hot tub at the end of every day but wished it had been open later than 9 p.m. We loved the nearby town of Hanalei (good shopping & restaurants (esp. Postcard Cafe)) and hiking trail that started at Ke'e Beach & the Limahuli Botanical Garden. Foodland was 2 mins. from the condo & a regular stop! Other favorite activities were Waimea Canyon drive & hike and kayaking with Wailua Kayaking. Would have loved a movie service option like Netflix or Hulu.

Nihilani 26A
Reviewed on 2015-08-05 by Laurie D. , SLC, UT United States26A was a very nice condo. This isn't a huge deal, but I had asked if the condo had beach chairs, a cooler and umbrellas. Hawaii Life assured me that it did. I asked again about a month before our departure and was told again that yes it did. When I arrived that is the first thing I checked for: no beach chairs, one umbrella, and a small cooler that held three drinks. Not a game changer, but it seems that the management company should know their properties a little better. We did receive chairs a day later from the on sight property manager, and I did buy and leave another umbrella. Overall, however, I would recommend this unit.

Princeville Paradise
Reviewed on 2015-06-30 by Joel B. , Denver, CO United StatesThe house was spacious and clean. The rental representative, Eric, was so thoughtful. Two things: don't be tight with dishwasher soap & laundry detergent. And the condominium had many rules. Other than that, we loved our stay!

A perfect location!
Reviewed on 2015-03-08 by Amy G. , Kamloops, BC CanadaThe condo was beautiful and in a great location. The building manager was great and came quickly when we called. They even left a light on for us for our very late arrival. We enjoyed the location to beautiful beaches, shopping, and a nice walking path. The condo was perfect for our two small families. We always met nice people at the bbq area. The kids loved the kiddie pool at the end of a day ful of sun! We look forward to staying here again!

Relaxing time in Princeville
Reviewed on 2015-01-01 by , Porter Ranch, CA USThis was a comfortable, quiet, place. The location was close to Princeville amenities, but quiet away from traffic since it in the center of the complex. The condo is very large and spacious, more than enough room for our family of 3.

This beautifully appointed two-story townhome offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 1,875 square feet of living space in the sought-after Nihilani at Princeville resort. Set within a lush tropical garden, this newer, award-winning plantation-style community provides the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and island charm.
Just steps from the resort’s tropical pool and lounging area, the home is an ideal base for exploring all that Kauai has to offer—or simply relaxing by the pool or on your private lanai. Inside, the spacious open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas feature recent renovations and inviting seating, creating a comfortable retreat after a day of adventure.
The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, complete with its own lanai, dedicated office space, TV, walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath featuring a separate shower and soaking tub.

A versatile den provides extra space for guests or entertainment, with a comfortable double size futon available for sleeping.
