About this property

Oceanfront Puu Poa Condo 311 AC thruout best Bali Hai View & Sunsets Princeville

Our Oceanfront, Mountain and Sunset view is THE most famous on all of Kaua'i!!!

Newly renovated with A/C throughout unit. 4 split Mitsubishi units: one in each bedroom , one in kitchen/dining area and one in living room/atrium area.

If you are looking for the most beautiful, romantic place in the world this may be it! This is one of the few Puu Poa condominium units with the iconic 'Bali Hai' view. Our condo sits on the edge of a bluff, with full unobstructed white water ocean and mountain views that are too beautiful to believe.

The condo (# 311) faces almost due west, so spectacular sunsets over the Pacific Ocean are the norm. The condo itself is huge, over 1800 square feet of interior living space, with

its own additional 22 foot by 18 foot outdoor lanai. There is also a huge enclosed sunroom that actually allows you to enjoy any tropical showers. It is custom decorated in a retro Hawaiian style with many original artist's touches, beautiful tile and granite throughout. There is more than ample furniture to relax and nap in different areas.

Puu Poa is THE premier luxury/view condo complex on the North Shore of Kauai, in Princeville.

Just steps away from our condo is the newly ($250 mil) renovated 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay that open February 15, 2023. This property was formally the Princeville Resort Kauai and more recently the St. Regis Princeville Hotel. The 1 Hotel is a luxury resort that caters to the upper crust of the upper crust — with typical rooms priced at between $1,500 and $2,000 a night and premium lodging going for more than $20,000. There will be 7 restaurants and bars there that are open to the public. The 2 main restaurants that’s will initially open are the 1 Kitchen and the Melina Terrace, the latter a Japanese style restaurant specializing in sushi. There is also a coffee shop off the lobby, called “Neighbors”, open 6am to 4 pm, with nice breakfast dishes and lunch salads and wraps; Coffees, teas and specialty beverages available all day.

There is also a winding path to the unbelievably picturesque Hideaways Beach below our bluff, where there is a nice coral reef for snorkling.

The fabulous 18 hole Makai Golf Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., is also steps from the door. Tennis and pickle ball are available for free onsite at the condo.

Rent this spectacular luxury condo for the vacation of your dreams. You will not be disappointed!

Slice of Paradise

Beautiful condo, beautiful views, the sound of the ocean and wind, comfortable beds, plenty of parking, quiet (most of the time), owner communicative and easy to work with. Its hard to to find words that can describe it adequately. We absolutely loved it from the moment we arrived and will definitely plan on a repeat visit in the future.

Princeville Deluxe

The incredible views, comfortable furnishings and well stocked kitchen provided a fabulous setting for a wonderful vacation. After enjoying different beaches in the area we would return to relax either poolside or on the deck. The air conditioning was delightful on hot days. The owners guide and instructions about the condo, the area and restaurant suggestions were thorough and helpful. We shall return.

Piece of Paradise!

Perfect accommodation for our Romantic getaway! But this fully equipt condo had plenty of room for another couple. Everything you need to feel right at home was there. Great appliances for cooking and dining in. Comfortable bedding. Updated furniture. The views are breathtakingly beautiful, and property is located exactly where you want to be on this island. We golfed 5 rounds and snorkeled/swam. All were within walking distance. And a short drive to Hanalei Bay for calmer beach. We will be booking another stay next year. Loved our time there! Oh and the owners were very thoughtful in providing suggestions for dining and activities and any little questions we had. Great property owners!

Fantastic Property!

We totally loved the condo, and it was in a perfect location. We watched the sunset nightly over Hanalei Bay nightly from the lanai. We were steps from One Hotel with beautiful grounds, food and views. The condo was immaculate, spacious and well-appointed with everything we needed. The owner provided a wealth of information before we arrived. We couldn’t recommend this place more highly!

Spectacular location and best views of Bali Hai!

The condo is perfect! The kitchen had everything, the living rooms were beautifully appointed with comfortable and stylish furniture. I can’t think of anything missing that would have enhanced our stay. We have been going to Princeville for 30 plus years and this is by far the best condominium we have stayed in. You will be quite happy with this choice!!!

Fantastic condo with a spectacular view!

We had an absolutely amazing stay!! This condo was perfection! It was clean, comfortable, and very well appointed. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The sunsets are spectacular and we even woke up to a double rainbow the very first morning! It’s less than 10 minutes from Hanalei and also super close to some of the best snorkeling beaches on the North Shore. The owners were incredibly communicative and helpful both before and during our stay. We will absolutely be back again! Mahalo!

Book this property!

WOW was our reaction when we walked through the front doors. Panoramic views of Bali Hai and pacific ocean from solarium and lanai. If you are a group of 2-4 people book this property! Kitchen/dinging area/living room/lanai are great spaces and very well equipped. The property is in top condition and communications with the owner were simple and very helpful. Don't foget to snorkel at Hideaway Beach which is below the property. Amaing snorkeling with the most healthy coral we have seen in sometime.

Can I give more than 5 stars?

Wowwowwow! The property, the location, the VIEWS and the owner…all top notch! Knowing that our first week of vacation was to take place on Maui before heading to Princeville, Mark was gracious enough to reach out to us to see if we wanted to arrive earlier than planned because of the Lahaina fires. All communication with Mark was clear, timely and helpful. The property itself is exceptional; clean, well-stocked with amenities (in the kitchen and for the beach), a beautiful, LARGE lanai and again, that view! We were fortunate enough to catch many incredible rainbows and sunsets from our lanai each day. This location in Pu’u Poa will be our Go To each time we return to Kauai…thank you, Mark, for helping to make our memories of this trip to Kauai particularly special ones…mahalo!

We spent 5 nights here and it was the perfect end to a two week Hawaii vacation. The location of the condo is perfect, an easy walk to the beach, pool and a few restaurants. Very easy to drive to Hanalei Bay. If you plan on eating in, the kitchen has everything you'll need. The host provides lots of information about the condo and local area and will answer any questions you have. If I'm ever back in Kauai, I'll definitely stay here!

Perfect vacation!

Seamless check in, superb information from Mark. The view from the lanai and atrium is breathtaking! Excellent A. C....it's one of the reasons we picked this property. It kept the condo cool & comfortable for our stay (along with the many ceiling fans). The path down to Hideaways beach was challenging but doable for me (I'm short with weak ankles and I don't like hiking) in water shoes. My husband and 15 year old son (both quite tall) found it easy in flip flops/ bare feet. In case you're wondering, it was worth it! I can't say enough about what great hosts Mark and Lynn were. Any time i reached out with a question, Mark replied very quickly and helpfully. The space is comfortable, with plenty of places to sit, and a fully stocked and upgraded kitchen (important to us because we like to cook on vacation). The beds were comfortable, and all 3 of us slept really well. Princeville is a great location for exploring Kauai. We have already decided as a family that when we return, we would love to book this unit again. Thanks again, Mark and Lynn!

Wow! What an amazing place!

This property was exquisite. Everything from check in to check out was easy and met all of my expectations. The condo was immaculate, well supplied, and had everything I needed to enjoy my stay. The view was fantastic - from the full ocean view to the gorgeous Bali High views. I ate breakfast on the lanai every morning. One notable surprise was a that I was able to see an amazing view of an almost totally dark sky from the lanai. I spent two evenings laying on a lawn chair and gazing up at the Milky Way and the southern constellations. I have stayed at a number of Hawaii properties and this was exceptional and worth every penny.

Would return

Pretty much as was described and depicted in the listing. Nicely remodeled luxury condo with unobstructed view of the ocean. I chose it because of its proximity to Hideaways Beach, which I knew has a difficult trail to access with the reward of not crowded and good snorkeling, weather/seas allowing. Because we were there in November, there were only two of seven days with calm enough seas to swim safely there. But late in our stay we discovered Pu'o Po'a Beach, much calmer, easier access (walkway and paved stairs around the 1 Hotel). Owner was responsive by text and friendly. I would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Rothstein

Host profile image
Here I am, paddle boarding in Hanalei Bay, just minutes from the condo

Why they chose this property

Location. Location. Location. Kauai is the most beautiful of the Hawaiian Islands. The North Shore is the most beautiful part of Kauai. The Puu Poa condo complex is the premier condo complex on Kauai. Our unit is one of just a handful at Puu Poa with the iconic Bali Hai view and closest proximity to the ocean. It is large and beautifully appointed. ALSO, One of the few units with A/C throughout the condo (4 Mitsubishi split units). Due west sunset views

What makes this property unique

Lynn and I have a son, daughter-in-law and grand daughters living on Kauai so we come and visit as often as we can. The condo has the feel of a home rather than a 'rental condo package' and it is appointed and equipped like our home. Again, one of the few units with A/C throughout condo.
