View Alii Kai II 8H | A Princeville Vacation Rental
Alii Kai 8H-top floor corner, ocean view, pool, hot tub, BBQ, free parking
Enhanced COVID cleaning and disinfecting procedures for every check-in.
Lovely quiet upstairs corner Princeville condo with an ocean view, conveniently close to beaches, shopping, and dining. Private ocean view lanai, upgraded interior, and spacious master suite are just a few of the many features you'll love at Alii Kai 8H.
All of our Kauai vacation rentals at Aliii Kai II resort share the pool, jacuzzi, and barbecue areas, and lush landscaped tropical grounds. Parking is free. Shopping and dining in Princeville (including grocery store and wine shop) are just minutes away. In under ten minutes, you can be lying on a warm white-sand beach on Hanalei Bay, or be strolling the boutiques, galleries, and restaurants that line the main road through Hanalei. If you prefer to stay closer to home, the Princeville shopping center is only a mile away. You'll find a variety of dining choices from the fun, energetic Ti ki Iniki bar and grill to casual Asian take-out with outdoor dining (and often live music) to fancier fine Italian food. There's a Lappert's for ice cream. And the grocery has a generous selection of ready-to-eat local fare.
Alii Kai 8H is a spacious and updated 1200 sq ft. condo. You'll enjoy hanging out quietly on the private lanai, admiring the ocean and mountain views as you relax with your morning coffee or afternoon glass of wine. Master bedroom is perfect for romance with its comfortable king size bed, large overhead palm-leaf ceiling fan, and elegantly remodeled adjacent bathroom. There's plenty of room for a second couple in the guest bedroom with queen bed. Second guest bathroom means you won't have to share!
If you'd rather eat in, you'll find a full kitchen, beautifully updated. You can barbecue your catch of the day on the gas grill provided in the pool area, then dine al fresco on the lanai while enjoying the refreshing ocean breeze. For your convenience, a washer and dryer are provided right in the condo, and there is a free wifi connection. The furnishings are comfortable and the decor is charmingly island casual.

The location of our condo is fantastic. The furnishings, while adequate, are poorly suited to the size of the unit. In particular, one of the oversized side tables was placed behind a couch, extending into the hallway, right in the way of traffic. I severely stubbed my toe on this table, and so I moved it for the rest of our stay.
The kitchen is very well supplied with cooking gear. However, the kitchen is not updated. The cabinets are old built-ins, and, the kitchen design is such that some cabinets are hard to reach. All in all, it is merely an adequate kitchen.
The bathrooms are also merely adequate, with old painted cabinetry. The mirror has some flaking on the edges. The hot water in the main bathroom flowed intermittently, coming and going. This problem did not occur in the guest bathroom.
We were happy to find some beach equipment in the closet, but the chairs provided were not of high quality.
All in all, this unit is merely adequate, and is in need of better furnishings and a complete redesign.
Also, the managers of this unit need to correct the provided literature. The WiFi password listed in both the literature given by Kauai Kahuna and in the binder in the unit is incorrect. We found the correct password in a small frame on the kitchen counter.
The managers of Alii Kai also need to do better. The gas grills are ancient and need either repair or replacement. The burners are severely rusted, and I couldn’t get all the burners lit on some of the grills. Also the hot tub was working on our first night, but the heater went out, and for the remainder of our 30-day stay, we had no hot tub.
In spite of the “merel6 adequate” condo, the location is great! We loved the views of the oceans and of the mountains from our lanai.
None of the shortcomings of the unit affected our stay. Kauai is far too beaut

We're very sorry you had difficulty with the television and internet. After hours, we normally respond only to emergencies, and so we would have preferred not to pull our maintenance man away from his dinner at 8pm to fix this. But we did. The cable had been unscrewed from the wall, so fortunately it was an easy fix. Hopefully next time everything will go smoothly.Your request has been sent. We look forward to meeting all your vacation needs!
