If you stay in Kaua'i I would recommend staying on the North side. This unit in Princeville was a prime location to many beaches, hikes and restaurants, and is also a short drive to Hanalei. The unit was very clean. No kitchen but there was a portable stove top (we mostly ate out on our trip so it wasn't that big of an issue). But if you want to cook then that will be a problem. It's a decent walk to Hideaways beach which is incredible for snorkeling and has a very nice hike down to the beach. So check out Hideaways if you stay here. His was close to a few restaurants such as 'Piazza' which is one the best pizza on the island. The view from the balcony is gorgeous. This was a great place for the price.
