Hale Papio was a wonderful, quiet retreat for our time in Kauai. It was a nice location at the back part of the complex with a secluded deck and yard area. The house had all we needed for our getaway.

This home was gorgeous and cozy, the property was beautiful and there was all the amenities needed to enjoy our stay. We loved how close the cottage was to a trail that led to the beach. The hosts were great help when we had issues with Vrbo trying to check in. And also provided great guides for food, fun, views, and beaches on the island. A truly wonderful stay!

Host was very prompt with replies. Very cute place but property needs a good deep cleaning to include floors, grout and baseboards. I felt like I needed to mop the floors after we first walked in, but there is no mop or bucket. Unit needs paint throughout as well. Ceiling fans are spinning the wrong way so they’re not effective. Because it is so hot and humid in Kauai, AC would make things a lot more comfortable. Supplies were ample as far as kitchen and bathrooms and supplied plenty of linens. Sorry it’s not a better review.

Beautiful bungalow in Princeville

Loved the size, full kitchen, and the vibes of the decor. Perfect for what we needed to explore the north shore. Close to a few stores, the only downside was the beach that is closest does not have a lot of parking so not an easy access beach. But on the island you can find one within driving distance! :)

Nice condo

It was a nice condo. It was a busy place as are all the places I have stayed in Kauai so far. This was ni the nicest place we have ever stayed in, in Kauai. The kitchen was fully stocked with your cooking essential cooking utensils and appliances, the house is beautifully decorated. We did not spend much time there as we were off sightseeing and they were painting the condos anyway. Many people around walking to the beach and walking through the property's backyard and walking around the property which was fine as I said, we were off sightseeing during the days and that is typical for Kauai. Beautiful condo with everything you need

Beautiful and comfortable bungalow

The bungalow was very well equipped, we had everything we needed to enjoy the water, beach, and down time inside. We were very appreciative of the many available fans because it is very warm and humid compared to our typical home in Washington state!The guest books were filled with great reviews, but also with suggestions of things to do on the island so I highly recommend looking through those to get recommendations. It was great that they were there from several years back and we benefited from the information. One thing to note, the trail to the beach is a little longer than we anticipated. Not problematic, but just be prepared that you are not right on the beach.Very clean! We would totally stay again!

Beautiful in every way!

This place was an excellent fit for exploring the North side of the island! It is such a stunning bungalow, and the price for what you get is absolutely unbelievable. The kitchen is incredible, the layout is phenomenal for adding a sense of privacy, but also allowing wonderful spaces to have meals together after a long day of adventuring. Comfortable for our family of four, beautifully decorated and finished, beautiful back deck, and so close to some of the most beautiful places the North Shore offers. Loved all of the plants and geckos and baby chicks surrounding the property. Was always cool, and the owners were kind and responsive. Such a gem of a place to stay!

Beautiful bungalow

Very nice little bungalow (the pictures don't do it justice ;)), beautifully decorated and comfortable in a nice and quiet environment. The only downside for us was that the closest beach was a hike away and we could not swim there. Otherwise, very beautiful and quiet. I would highly recommend it.

Beautiful unique bungalow

Overall wonderful stay! Spacious, clean, beautiful indoors and outdoors. Great BBQ to cook fish we caught in Port Allen. Nice neighborhood, and we loved the walk/hike trail to Wyllie’s and Anini beaches. Dropped 1 star just because there was no WiFi (not even a choice on the list of available networks). A detailed instruction book in the condo suggested ways to use a modem, but noted internet may not be available. That’s okay since the location is North Shore, but they should not list WiFi as an amenity in the VRBO description. An otherwise fantastic place and we would return.
