TL;DR: very clean and comfortable unit in Princeville— I’d only recommend staying in Princeville if you’ve been to the island before and understand traffic and where everything is.
If this your first visit to Kauai I wouldn’t really recommend Princeville or this particular AirBnB, though both are nice and above average for a number of reasons which don’t necessarily belong in this review.
Pros: If you know you want to be in the NE of Kauai then this place is great, clean, and comfortable with a lot of extra goodies provided (cooler, 2 boogie boards, beach umbrella, lots of towels, etc). Pool area looked nicer than others at similar resorts on Kauai. Parking was really easy at all hours. Check in/check out was efficient and smooth.
Cons: Kitchen and fridge space is minimal and the unit is small. Ac is very loud and not super effective. Outlets for charging phones/etc aren’t super convenient (not really host’s issue but worth mentioning). Food in Princeville can be a challenge, especially if you don’t want to drive for every meal and there is no direct/easy beach access (or ocean views) at this particular resort. The key/door situation can be difficult and takes two hands which is mildly irritating after a hike or long day swimming.
Ultimately, I’d recommend to anyone determined to stay in Princeville (like my wife and I were).
