We really enjoyed our stay at the Makai Club Resort. Our room was spacious, clean, and located right in the heart of Princeville (10 minutes driving from Hanalei Bay). The pool and hot tub in the resort are great amenities. We also rented beach chairs and a boogie board from the main office which was very convenient. The temperature at night felt totally fine when using the fans in the bedrooms. We only used one of the bedrooms, but there was more than enough space to two couples in the unit.
This was a great home base for us while we planned hikes and beach days. Would definitely recommend Makai to anyone going to the north side of Kauai.
