The unit was ok. A little worn. Very clean. Dishwasher and door under sink needs a fix. NO AIR CONDITIONING. In the morning it’s humid. Ok for sleeping temperature. If you want to sleep late this is not the place. No AC means windows opens. chickens/roosters crowing at dawn!!! Pool shown in picture is not the pool for this unit. The pool for this unit is much nicer. Views are beautiful!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was beautiful with a view of the ocean, a great pool, hottub and bbq's 2 minutes away. It was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for cooking. Was a great experience for two couples. Would highly recommend a car as not much is within walking distance but a peaceful, beautiful location to relax and cute towns/amazing beaches within a short drive.

Pleasant Stay

Had a very relaxing and pkeasant stay at Alii Kai 2. Comfortable and roomy condo with nice view of ocean and mountains. There were a few hiccups, like the dishwasher not working but the property management quickly responded. I would recommend .both the property and properties managed by Kauai Kahuna.

Great stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our location and our view... Being over the pool had his pros and cons though in the later evenings... For the price we paid, we thought the kitchen could use a tiny upgrade for sure, but other than that we were very happy. We were easy guests doing our own laundry and treating the property like our own home... we donated three brand new boogie boards to the closet for the next many guests to use and we hope the owners can enjoy them as well. We would definitely stay again. Mahalo!

Location is wonderful

After arriving our electronic door lock failed, unable to get into our rental at 01:00 am, property manager called and quickly arrived to use the key. Battery replaced the next morning. Then the sink over the garborator filled up when the dishwasher was used, needed to bail dirty water into the next sink or a flood would have occurred. Rental company sent a plumber quickly to fix this issue. Overall, site location wonderful, grounds immaculate, our stay was good overall Even with those two issues.

Comfortable but showing it’s age

Upon our arrival, I was somewhat disappointed that first evening that the condo appeared a bit tired and shabby. By the next afternoon, my attitude adjusted and I realized that it was adequate in the ways that mattered. The bed was comfortable, the shower had good water pressure and the appliances in the kitchen worked well. It was clean, quiet and in a nice location. But it could definitely use some new paint, a carpentry refresh and a bit of modernizing in the kitchen. The attentiveness of staff before and during our visit was excellent. We’d stayed at this complex 3 yrs prior with friends, thus our decision to return to the area. three years priorkitchen

The dishwasher was broken when we arrived and was beeping, they finally sent someone over and they disconnected the circuit breaker to stop the beeping, which also killed some of the outlets in one of the bedrooms. 2. In the other bedroom 1/2 of one of the outlets behind the bed stopped working.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This lovely two bedroom condo will not only give you lush gardens and ocean views, you have everything you need to have a fabulous time in Princeville. We had smoothies every morning with the provided blinder. All your cooking needs are available. The kitchen cupboards are looking a little tired but other than that it was perfect. The hot tub wasn’t working which was a real bummer as that was one of our ‘must haves’ when traveling but the pool was equally as good. The location took us a bit to find but once you go in and out a few times you’ll find your way....lots of turns. The walking paths are fantastic and so is the peace and quiet. Overall, we are thrilled with this condo.

Pluses and Minuses

On the plus side, the space was decent in a nice area close to Princeville. The kitchen was fairly well appointed with medium quality dishes. They really should repair the wall behind the microwave though. They should make it clear the pool you see in the pictures is not the one you are allowed to use. The one you are able to use is actually better but we wasted time not knowing we were trying to get into the wrong area. Our TV failed before a big game and we spent al lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong. Turns out it was Roku but we were without entertainment for most of the trip. No stereo, or ability to use DVD. Kauai is very quiet after dark.

Disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a good portion of the week talking to the management company about spotty wifi, TV not working, garbage disposal back-up, (only used it once) and several other more minor issues that could have been avoided with better, more detailed move-in instructions. Managers were friendly, but most answers were "try this", or "we will call maintenance", or "we are very sorry". We did not see a manager or maintenance person all week. My impression is that the owner does not want to spend any money so furnishings are sparce, appliances need up-dating (the side of the refrigerator and freezer racks appeared to be rusty), and the microwave above the stove does not work -so we used a smaller one located on the counter. The good news is that the place was clean and in a good Princeville location. Being situated next to and above the pool we were able to hear most of the pool conversations as well as the moans and heavy breathing from the unit below. We vacated our two week reservation after the first week and moved to a more suitable and comfortable location. No refund was offered.

Dishwasher didn't work for our stay, but we were advised in advance, all good.2. Hot water in master shower has a mind of it's own & shower door is tricky.3. #H8 Pool is not the one you view from the deck, look left, it's in the bld group 8+ & place gate fob to sensor to open.4. Coffee maker is a drip.5. Circuit breaker is behind the hall picture if outlets fail.6.The contact people are WONDERFUL, HELPFUL & PROMPT!!!7. The Crazy roosters are beautiful,treasured to the island i'm sure-but this visit I felt they had multiplied beyond words! Therefore, if you have GOOD hearing or NO earplugs...FORGET SLEEPING IN!8. Finally, it's evident that native Kauaian's have become quite impatient with tourists. I get it. They have to deal with MANY rude & "impatient" visitors in their HOME - but it sure made it a little less lovely :( (I don't need people honking their horns, shaking fists & heads & screaming at me...I can get that in SF or NYC!).9. All said, it was a nice visit for me & my 92 year old Mom who just wanted to go there "1 more time!"10. Note to Mom; "PARADISE is anywhere I get to spend time with you, <3 Lindy"

Also Somewhat Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we were fairly satisfied with this condo unit. Nice view, comfy beds and well equipped with cookware, utensils, etc. The unit could use some updates - cabinets, paint, etc, but certainly workable. Fully equipped with beach equipment - chairs, umbrella, towels, snorkels/masks, etc.We are definitely in agreement with the previous reviews raising the issue of hot water availability in this unit. There is literally none in the master bath and with some luck you can get a few minutes of "lukewarm" out of the "guest" shower if you keep playing with the control - and hot water out of the taps is always an iffy proposition. I fully realize there can be issues with an "on-demand" hot water system and "plumbers are very hard to get to come" but I feel that for the cost of the unit it should be a courtesy to inform renters of this issue before they come. This "amenity" was very important to my wife and her sister (with much curly hair) and I heard about it daily!Also - make sure you clean up any food off the counters and out of the sink and hang the kitchen washcloth over the faucet (they love water) if you use it or you will have a bunch of tiny ants. I started leaving the under-cabinet light on thru the night and it seemed to keep them at bay.
