Beautifully Updated & Fully Air Conditioned - Prime Location w/ Huge Lanai

Mauna Kai 5A offers the perfect combination of comfort, style, and an unbeatable location on Kauai’s North Shore! This beautifully remodeled, fully air-conditioned townhome is ideal for those looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway, without sacrificing convenience. Inside, you'll find two spacious, well-appointed bedrooms, an open-concept living and dining area, and a fully stocked kitchen, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. The townhome’s décor is thoughtfully curated with artwork from local Kauai artists, adding to the property’s modern Hawaiian charm, while the generous wrap-around lanai offers a variety of seating and dining options, with access from nearly every room, creating the perfect space for enjoying Kauai’s outdoor beauty.

Mauna Kai 5A couldn’t be more perfectly situated. The stunning Anini Beach is just a short 10-minute hike away down a shaded tree-lined path, making it easy to enjoy sun and surf. The property is also right next to the lush Makai Golf Course, where you can enjoy a morning walk along the scenic greenbelt, or take the path to the 1 Hotel at the far end of Princeville. The Westin Resort, just a 5-minute walk down Wyllie Road, provides convenient access to a Starbucks, a mini-mart, and upscale dining at Nanea Restaurant. For even more options, the Princeville Shopping Center, with a variety of boutiques, dining spots, and the Foodland grocery store, is just a 10-minute walk away. Be sure to check out Tiki Iniki for happy hour, and don’t miss the delicious shave ice (snow-capped is a must!). Every Saturday, you can also visit the Princeville Farmer’s Market for fresh local produce and unique island goods, before enjoying the free afternoon hula show at the Shopping Center!

If you’re in the mood for more exploring, the quaint town of Hanalei is just a 10-minute drive away, as are the stunning beaches of Hanalei Bay. For a deeper connection to Hawaiian culture, a visit to Limahuli Gardens (30 minutes by car) offers spectacular views and an educational experience on native plants and the island’s history. Looking to make your away around the entire island? Drive time to the East Side (where the airport is located) is roughly 50 minutes, and to the South Shore is about 75 minutes.

If relaxation is more your style, Mauna Kai offers fantastic amenities. The spacious pool area is equipped with plenty of sun loungers, gas grills, and a shaded cabana with outdoor dining tables – perfect for unwinding after a day of island exploration or enjoying a family BBQ. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or simply enjoy the beauty of Kauai, Mauna Kai 5A offers the ideal base for your vacation!

Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

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!

CONSTRUCTION NOISE ALL DAY

The unit above is being renovated. WE WERE NOT TOLD THIS BY THE PROPERTY MANAGERS BEFORE ARRIVAL. Skill saws, hammering, banging above our heads bolted us out of bed at 7:30 AM for the week and the noise was extremely loud all day and at times exceeded 100 decibels. It completely ruined or enjoyment of the condo.
