Princeville is a sort of condo-sub-town in the north, perfect for some seclusion but a lengthy drive to the Waimea Canyon. Nice and close to the Kalalau trail, but don’t forget to schedule your reservations for that trail in advance at gohaena.com. All in all, Axel’s place is an affordably priced, great home base to come catch some z’s before your next adventure. There is a Foodland grocery store nearby on the road to Hanalei, and you can keep what you need in the mini fridge at Axel’s. You’ll be in close proximity to the other residents, but most of Princeville looks to be set up that way. (-:
