We had a fantastic time at Alta’s beautiful condo. There was only two of us but the condo could comfortably fit 4 (or more). The condo was very clean and well stocked. It had everything we needed and things we didn’t even realize we would need. We really enjoyed the large shower, comfortable bed, modern kitchen, and hammock!! We were nervous about not having a/c but it ended up being very cool and comfortable in the condo.
Please note: The roosters are no joke. They woke us up at 2 am on our first night but worth it for a stay in this beautiful condo.
Princeville is a great location with lots to do and see nearby. We loved visiting Hanalei and the Nāpali Coast state park that were relatively close. We also appreciated how close the condo was to a foodland (search for it on google maps it’s hard to spot from the main road). This was very helpful because it is pitch black at night and the island has very few street lamps. We opted to cook dinner most nights to avoid driving around in complete darkness.
On this vacation we ended up spending a lot of time driving to the eastern and southern parts of the island. Our advice is to plan your activities/excursions around what part of the island you want to visit that day. Otherwise you will spend a lot of time in the car looping around the island. If you want to hike at Waimea Canyon (which we highly recommend) keep in mind that you have 1 1/2 hour drive each way. Make sure you leave time to explore that part of the island. We were amazed by how much there is to see on all parts of the island.
