James was an excellent host and I’d highly recommend this spot to anyone looking to visit Kauai and have a truly peaceful and beautiful experience. The short trail down to the beach from his air bnb made for several lovely sunrise hikes around the coast - would recommend following the beach around to the road and finding the perfect sunrise view at Kalihikai beach. The spot is also within short walking distance to the Princeville center which houses several shops, bars, gas station and an extensive grocery store. The farmers market in the park there was a treat to walk to also! Not to mention the short drive to Hanalei, which had triple the offerings.
Amenities at the apartment were above and beyond, from the snorkeling gear that is provided (recommend Tunnels Beach!!) to the kitchen setup to the clean and beautiful bedrooms and patio/balcony. Particularly of note was the excellent communication we received from James whenever we had a question.
Would recommend to anyone wanting to experience the quieter and more nature-oriented side of the island. The public transportation was convenient when we wanted to travel to the south and west side of the island for more commercial and bustling outdoor tours, adventures and environments. Driving was also not inconvenient whatsoever.
