Tessie's Place was just the perfect place for our stay in Kauai. We stayed there for the entire week that we were on Kauai. It was close to Foodland, which we frequented, and a short drive to Hanalei with tons of food options (great food trucks there!). We enjoyed the proximity to some of the incredible places like Queen's Bath, Hideaways Beach, Tunnels Beach, and Ke'e Beach (start of a Napali Coast hike). It was well equipped for everything we needed. We had a quick breakfast daily on the lanai of fresh fruits and Hawaiian coffee! We did venture out to east and south of the island, but staying in Princeville was not a problem; the island is small enough that you can really reach anywhere in an hour or so. I was concerned about the lack of AC but blasting two fans for a bit really helped circulate the air and cool down the room after being out all day. We would definitely stay there again!
