Photos don't do Kauai or this condo justice!

Fabulous updated condo with everything you need stocked (any kitchen tool
you need, ziplocks, soap, detergent, foil, saran wrap, coffee filters, etc...oh
and beach chairs and cooler were key!) Pack and play in the closet too - we
don't have kids but if you do, a huge plus. Great a/c, beautiful furnishings,
huge flatscreen HDTV/Blu Ray, nice kitchenware, good linens/towels,
laundry, nice patio furniture, iHome clock/stereo in both rooms, comfy bed,
spotless condo.

The view FAR surpasses the photos - the ocean is much closer than it
appears in pics and you can hear the pounding waves as you watch the
sunset over Bali Hai from the balcony every night. We arrived in the dark
and literally gasped at the view the next morning once we realized how
awesome it was.

The condo company was easy to work with and left a great gift basket in
the condo. Directions were perfect, check in took 2 minutes, property was
gorgeous and totally renovated, pool/jacuzzi luxurious with waterfalls, walk
to beach was 5 minutes on a neat path through the trees. The beach was
gorgeous! (And we are from Florida!) St. Regis next door has wonderful
restaurants that you can use as well (Jean Georges Kauai Grill was
awesome.)

North shore is the BEST! I cannot imagine staying on the south shore once
I've seen the north. Incredibly beautiful, not crowded or touristy, and the
Princeville complex is great. Super running trails, nice mixed use
community (houses, villas, condos, resort, golf courses, playgrounds, good
grocery store, etc.) Hanalei town very close with many good restaurants
too. Easy to drive all over the island as it is small but renting a car is a
must. We travel a lot and highly recommend this place! Absolutely
FABULOUS condo in a ridiculously wonderful setting! :) Don't think twice -
book it! We'd return in a heartbeat!
