Alex was a great host. Very helpful and informative and responded right away. The place was exactly as described. It was very clean and had everything we needed. It was a perfect location for anything Princeville/Hanalei related. The condo is an open-air style so you do hear pretty much everything going on outside. The complex and other guests all seemed to understand this though and were respectful and quiet. You will hear the roosters every morning though, but you would get that no matter where you stay in Kauai. Overall a great experience. Would recommend Alex as host for sure.
