If you want the perfect stay in Kauai, come here! Went with family, and honestly you can just do so much at this hotel and surrounding areas. You have multiple pools, multiple hot tubs, pickleball courts, recreation rooms(loaded with interesting books,puzzles,games). There are food trucks a 5 min walk away too. The condos were so spacious and clean, we had a wonderful view of the ocean from our balcony. Condos come with beach chairs you can use when out and about exploring the island. Alanne was incredibly helpful. She is so sweet, and let us know the great beaches and great food places to visit while we were there. Very well maintained and overall so pleased with our stay, would recommend to anyone! read more

Not overjoyed with our stay here. 1. The lack of a/c combined with 90% humidity meant that everything felt wet all the time. Our damp laundry or shoes wouldn't dry. The carpet felt damp. The bathrooms smelled moldy. So damp. 2. Master shower would not heat up at all. Sink would get hot. Guest bathroom would get hot. Not the master shower no matter how it was adjusted or how long it ran. 3. Wasn't dirty but also wasn't the most clean. 4. Super dated. And not in a darling, historic way. The ceiling fan blades were yellow and droopy. No pull chains to adjust. Carpet in the master. Showers felt really dated. It felt safe and we appreciated the ability to do laundry, dishes, etc. Didn't use the pool but it was cute. Probably wouldn't stay here again. read more

The beds suck so bad it's insane. Hard as a rock, barely any blankets, and no AC. If you don't like ceiling fans blowing on you constantly you are out of luck. Because we were right by the pool we couldn't leave our windows open unless you want a very early morning. It's very outdated. Carpets. Old smell. BUT the beds! Such a bummer when you don't have a comfy bed to sink into on vacation. read more

Make sure you see what Ron you have. Some parking lots out are close to the road. There is one building that has unobstructed ocean views and go directly to the cliffs. Amazing. We had ground floor and that meant I didn't feel comfortable leaving the bedroom sliding door open at night for the breeze since someone can literally walk into your lanai as there is no gate or anything. Second or third floor would have been way better. Same for the other lanai off the living room. Anyone can just walk in since the screen provides zero security. Pool was just ok, it was kind of cloudy and needed better cleaning which became super obvious when I walked over to the adult hot tub, which had crystal clear water. There's a foodland grocery store 5 min drive, has everything you need, same strip mall as an ace hardware and several mediocre restaurants. Oh and no AC!!! But the crossbreeze wasn't bad if you kept both lanai doors open. The cliff itself is an amazing view. Pricey for what it is, but so is everything. Hanalei is a 12 min drive and you have to drive everywhere which I hate personally. read more

Cliffs at Princeville - Lanai - Vacation Rentals Near Me - Princeville, Hawaii

Photos on their website are very misleading. The rooms were filthy and falling apart. The main bathroom had actual dirty and a USED TOILET PAPER on the counter. The bed mattress was hard as a rock and the bed linen was easily 30 years old. The bed skirt was actually fraying. While packing I went to turn and my foot got tangled up with the bed skirts fraying pieces and I fell. Both beach chairs were broken and unusable. We contacted the front desk and were shown beach chairs that were also falling apart. I requested the front desk manager several times and still have not heard from anyone. The head housekeeper did help, but no one from upper management contacted me and I made multiple attempts but I never heard back from them. The housekeeper and room inspectors are obviously failing miserably. The hotel's manager seems to be MIA and is ignoring guests and also woefully inept at any kind of quality management. SPEND YOUR MONEY AND VACATION ELSEWHERE. read more

Kauai alone is amazing, and our condo at the Cliffs, heaven! We didn't want to leave Kauai! So comfortable with all the amenities of home. Ocean view, lots of windows, comfy bedding, lots of space and friendly people. The North Shore has lots to offer and one week wasn't enough time. There is a market close by, a gas station, restaurants, and tranquility. read more

No A/C IN THE ROOMS!! The advice is to leave all the windows open. Hard to be intimate with your special someone with all the windows open.

I recently stayed at The Cliffs at Princeville and wanted to share a frustrating interaction at the front desk that really impacted our stay. We had an urgent need for an emergency feminine pad (women's sanitary product). Instead of offering any help--such as checking if they had any on hand for guests--one of the front desk staff simply pointed to a nearby local store where we could buy one. It felt dismissive for something that can be a genuine emergency, especially while traveling. In addition, when we asked for an extra complimentary bag of coffee (they only provide one regular bag and one decaf bag for a week-long stay), the response was, "We are a timeshare, not a hotel, so we don't give out free stuff." When I explained that I am also a timeshare owner and that other properties happily provide these items as a small courtesy, she cut off my words and turned to her monitor. As an owner at another timeshare property, I've never encountered this kind of response, and many places provide additional coffee upon request--it's standard in our experience. The contrast here was striking and felt unnecessarily stingy. What bothered me most, though, was the attitude. After these exchanges, the two staff members stopped making eye contact, turned away, and focused on their computers as if we were no longer there. It came across as very rude and unprofessional, making us feel ignored and unwelcome. The property itself has beautiful views and nice amenities overall, but this kind of front-desk service left a sour impression. I expected more hospitality, especially from a place that caters to owners and repeat visitors. I hope management takes note--basic courtesy and a little flexibility go a long way. read more

If you want to be nickel and dimed, this is the place for you! Stayed here for a week in Summer 2024. After spending a week at the Marriott Ocean club in Maui, we can to Kauai for a week of additional relaxation! The resort is very quiet and spacious, being up in Princeville. The rooms are nice and well stocked. Note, that there is not any air conditioning, but with the nice breeze, it's not a big issue. The ceiling fans help a lot too. My issue is with the rude front desk. Probably 75% of the people i interacted there are just not helpful. They are all about tacking on extra fees. Here are not examples and you can say whether its outrageous or not. 1) Resort Fee: $100 per week 2) Taxes: $16 per night 3) Parking $15 per night 4) Need more coffee for your room? You need to buy it at the front desk 5) The best of all is that we had booked the timeshare exchange for 7 nights, but were leaving a day early. We had a 2pm flight, so were hoping to leave the resort around 11 the day prior. The front desk told us that we needed to leave by 10 to not pay the additional night of Taxes and Parking. We just did this at the Marriott and actually didn't even leave until 4pm, and they didn't charge us the extra night of taxes. I don't think that I would stay here again, and this is probably the reason why the Cliffs club has quite a bit of availability for exchange. Change the policies and the nickel and diming, and this place is fine to stay at. Be ready to be woken up by roosters, and hope that you have a room where you can see the ocean.... I will say that the place is well maintained, and I was going to give it 3 stars. However, when checking out, the woman at the front desk again was very rude for no reason. Solid 2 because of that.... read more

The condos are outdated but clean. The property has an amazing view. The reception area is strange. It smells strong and odd like old perfume, and there is very random decorations. The woman who works at the front desk seems like she is mad at people. It made it difficult to feel welcome and ask questions. The pool is small but very pretty. Overall it's a beautiful place but needs some serious love to make it lovely. More in photo descriptions... read more

The property itself is beautiful and everything went smoothly at first. However, there were significant issues that impacted our overall experience. We saw multiple roaches in the unit, which was concerning from the start. On our last evening, the unit flooded due to an adjacent rooms problem. We had maintenance in and out for several hours, disrupting our evening. While the issue was eventually addressed, there was no meaningful compensation for the time we were impacted, no move to another unit or urgency to find us another stay. The response felt impersonal and lacking in care, and the only compensation offered was removal of the resort fees, which did not feel proportionate to the disruption. It was disappointing given how much we enjoyed the stay up until that point but the customer service was lacking. Because of these issues, we would not choose to stay here again or recommend this stay. read more

We just stayed here for a week as a part of an exchange program with our own timeshare. The rooms themselves are spacious, though like everyone said they are slightly dated, and there is no AC. Personally, I didn't mind that there was no AC, since with the windows and doors open and the fans going there is a nice breeze. That said, if you have a room with a loft where the hot air rises, it can be hard to sleep up in the loft. The grounds itself is beautiful. The kids enjoyed the pool and the sports equipment rentals. I appreciated the beach equipment in the units. The staff are all very friendly, and I loved watching the sunset from a grassy area on property. Overall, it's not going to blow you away with over the top luxury, but it's nice for a getaway, and it fits in with the rest of the Kauai vibe. read more

We were so happy with our short stay at the Cliffs. Beautiful property. Our 1 bedroom condo with the pullout couch was extremely spacious. The master bedroom was especially big. The kitchen was beautiful and well stocked. We had a nice patio lanai overlooking the grass. If you're lucky enough to have a room overlooking the ocean, it is beautiful. Definitely take a few minutes to take the botanical garden walk. The one downside was that with one person in front of us getting help, we had to wait at least 20 minutes for our turn to check in. read more

Cliffs at Princeville - Living room area - Vacation Rentals Near Me - Princeville, Hawaii

Unless you are deaf and/or a very early riser, I would not recommend booking a second floor unit (there are three floors) at the Cliffs. Most are vacation rentals so you pretty much have no control over parents who allow their child to begin running back and forth starting at 6 am, 4 days in a row. It completely ruined our trip. The owner and front desk staff said they tried to get the people to stop, but they were never successful. We made it clear we are not kid haters, we have four grown kids and 2.5 grandkids none of whom would ever think of allowing this poor behavior. We were ready for roosters crowing pretty much 24/7 but not unruly kids. On the good side, the grounds are well kept, our unit was nice, pool and hot tub are very nice.. There are many lovely beaches nearby, but in February it's too rough to get into the water unless you are a skilled surfer. You pretty much have to fight for parking everywhere you go, particularly the restaurants and beaches. If you decide to check out Kauai, I hope you have better luck than we did, we will definitely stick to the Big Island from now on. read more

Let me tell you right now I am not a super happy camper. I booked this vacation little less than 2 months out. Had some points that if I didn't use them I would lose them and this was the only destination in a spot I wanted to go as a first "major" trip as the pandemic was letting up. I called the front desk multiple times (at least 8x) over those nearly 2 months to ask if they had a shuttle from the airport. I kept being told a flat no, but I kept checking thinking maybe it was just because of covid..... turns out they just flat don't offer a shuttle. Why is beyond me, they have more than enough people on staff to offer at least twice a day runs to and from the airport. You would also think if they didn't offer a shuttle the conversation would go more like.. "No, we do not have a shuttle... but we highly recommend you rent a car as that is the easiest way to get around on the north side of the island. We do have public transportation, the bus is about $2 cash only and the bus stop is about 25-30minute walk." Apparently that is too much hospitality to ask for... at the absolute least they could offer a shuttle to the bust stop! It's like a 10 minute golf cart ride. I landed and had not rented a car because once I go to the property didn't plan on venturing too far. However, there are NO Ubers, little to no Lyfts, Taxi's are about $115 one way... locals have even taken to renting out their own cars, but make sure you are traveling with proof of insurance if you plan on doing all that and all I saw required a hefty deposit! After about 45mts I was able to get a Lyft (after 2 previous cancellations).. it was $66 one way and I gave a nice tip since I was relieved to just be able to get to my destination at this point! The driver was shocked but grateful! This is most definitely not the concierge service I am used to when staying in resorts. They have a packet, but its photocopies of photocopies of photocopies so the quality is not ideal. The information isn't really in a succinct format. Something (at this point) was better than nothing! Front desk is not 24hrs - please make note of this! They at least offered bikes that you could rent $5 per hour or $10 for the day.. and they are first come first serve. I was up at 7a and waited 1.5 hours at the doors to get one of these bikes. A handful of staff drove by on their golf carts but not a single one stopped to ask if they could help. I picked up the phone at the side of the doors to call an inquire and could barely understand the person that answered. He told me to call back in 2 hours... keep in mind I am at this point standing in front of the front office using the courtesy phone... just wow! I stood there because I needed to get a bike to get to the grocery store so I could lug groceries back for the week. In this time, a handful of fellow guests stopped and checked in on me and even offered me a ride to the grocery but told me I would have to walk back of course because they were heading out on their days. I was so warmed by the fact that at least some people on the island (fellow travelers) had a heart and some kindness trying to help me out! I also got more tips and tricks for the week from another guest, more than I got from the front desk the entire time I was there. Front desk finally opened and I signed the waiver and grabbed a lock, but had to wait an additional 20-30mts for maintenance to arrive for the key to the actual shed........ (yeah, you read that right), grabbed a cruiser (their only offering at the time) they charged me $10 for the day and I was able to bike to the grocery store about 8-10mts bike there (slight incline) about 5mts ride back because it is all downhill! In the middle of my stay (with absolutely no warning at all) they changed the price to ONLY hourly charges and removed the daily charge, even though they brought out more bikes including some mountain bikes. *straight face* I had to fight the incline on a cruiser and now they hand out mountain bikes.. the nerve! LOL I had a whole day planned which required a bike and my entire plan got derailed. I brought this up to the hostess that checked in on me and they offered me $10 daily rental again for the NEXT day.. which did nothing to rectify my plans. The rooms themselves are fantastic. I had a 1 bedroom/2 bathroom unit and it was phenomenal. Very roomy, very clean, fully stocked with beach chairs, beach towels, laundry detergents, etc. Even when its raining its still 80 + degrees.. It only rained the first 1.5 days on and off and never for very long.. So doesn't rain that much or I got lucky! I had windows and sliding doors open the WHOLE time, it was fantastic!!!!! My last gripe is checkout is 10am the staff should not be waiting outside the front door at 845am or milling around back and forth in front of the porch talking loudly while guests still have the right to be in their rooms packing and waiting for their rides.

The Cliffs has been remodeled. It's not like a 5 star resort, but it is in a good location and has everything you need. The only problem we had was the TV. At times we couldn't get it to work snd had to call maintenance. The guy was frustrated like we were because there were no instructions fir the remote for which buttons needed to be pushed. When the maintenance man came he showed me what ones to push for it to work. I liked our room, the kitchen was well stocked. They also have a washer and dryer with two small boxes of detergent and of bounce. The views from the property are beautiful, you can see the ocean and they have lots of chairs to sit on to enjoy the views. read more

We stayed here recently at an Airbnb on this resort property and it was great! The resort has full reception services to add to that vacation vibe and help as needed to make the most of your time on the island. They offer discounts on tours that can be arranged through concierge, but we didn't take advantage of these services as I'd already done my research in advance for our excursions during our stay. Pool and hot tub alongside a full activity center including pickle ball, tennis courts, shuffleboard courts. There was an adult hot tub which was nice to be nestled away from the kiddos and a 2nd pool. When we arrived on Thursday they were hosting a cocktail hour which was a great way to set the tone for the week by grabbing a complimentary drink and heading over to the Adirondack chairs to relax and enjoy the beach view. The property is in the middle of resort row in Princeville. You can rent bikes and ride along the foot path around the golf course across the street. I went for a run which was lovely. It's near walkable beaches, the golf course, restaurants and the Princeville shopping center for convenience to pick up those last minute items at Foodland. Our little spot was a garden facing open studio with a full kitchen, generous patio that felt private, and access to a washer and dryer. No A/C on this property so getting the hang of cross air flow is important. We would totally stay here again. Clean, organized, just enough perks but nothing too pushy knowing it is a timeshare property. read more

I recently stayed at this location for one week. The reason I'm posting this is to make sure the next visitor doesn't have this experience. I tried talking to housekeeping and management and Jim the manager was very condescending and very smug. Offering to buy me new wine glasses.......really! He also asked me if I traded or was an owner. He also offered to find me a different room, but that never happened. This was one of the worst experiences that I've ever had in the last ten years of traveling to Hawaii yearly. My pillows were the saddest pillows I've ever seen and the bed was so uncomfortable and even slide down on one side. They did bring me newer old pillows and they had a strong chemical odor and I couldn't use them. I had a friend that was supposed to stay with me for two nights and I canceled on her because my room was so bad. The carpet was the worst part! The pool chemicals are so off and my eyes burned for days. The flood in front of the water dispenser was a total slip and fall situation and all they needed to do was dig a small tench for the water to go into the garden. This place has serious issues and I feel the the guests that come here because my week was horrible. On my last day something happened in my bathroom and it was covered in water and everything was soaking wet. I had no idea what kind of water it was and the front desk didn't care one bit. There was no sense of urgency and 45 minutes later I had to go physically look for help. Everyone that works here seems to be blank faced and kind of run down, I'm sure they get a a lot of complaints. There is no air conditioning, which is fine except you can have a window open because of The noise. Units being worked on and I was told it was just one day and it was all week. Please fix this unit and replace some of the things in the pictures and for goodness sake clean the carpet! I stayed in Lawaii at the Lawaii Beach Resort for a week and had not one issue. Shame on this resort and it's management. read more

They are not honorable. Pn 6/8/23 we decided to stay at the Cliffs. the people were great ... they showed us room 1301, and we liked it. As I am sure you can relate, we came to Kauai for the views. We saw a nice of view of the mountains, and gave them a deposit for room 1301. When we checked in the manager would not honor the room. He stuck us in room 1304 which has no view and is also not the end of group and stated it's the same room with the same view. I came from Fka. I traveled 17 hours to get here. if I could give The Cliffs a negative 5 stars, I would. on another note: The rooms are old, and dark. Find an honorable hotel / condo or house manager. Avoid.

Lots of amenities: washer/dryer, games, water and beach gear, flat screen TV 3. Fully stocked kitchen: pots, pans, appliances etc. 4. Nice swimming pools and spa 5. Activities (Although did not participate) 6. Conveniently located 7. Clean upon arrival Delta's 1. No A/C - Weather was hot, did I mention it was hot, and humid 2. Not quiet - Construction going on day and night - Really? Yes 8am-8:00pm or so (Workers very loud) 3. Room over looked garbage dumpster and construction site 4. Not kid friendly rooms (We were told this) I would stay here again just in a different unit, with A/C. If construction is going on the guests need to know ahead of time, it's courtesy. Lovely location I mean come on it's Kauai!!!! The staff are friendly and helpful. Lots and lots to do on site and within walking distance there are nice areas to walk or jog as it's right near a golf course. Mahalo read more

Experience Kauai within nature and more. The landscape is beautiful and very spacious, amazing view which I couldn't ask for more. There are activities scheduled everyday with or without extra fees. Food or shopping are closed by at the Princeville village. Many comments have mentioned issue about air conditioning...yes yes, there is No aircon. But I find that it is ok, there are ceiling and electric fans provided for extra comfort. The breeze is nice when I leave the sliding doors open. Humidity, on the other hand is just the extra bonus that come with this vacation lol. Well, we are in kauai, the farm/nature environment!! The resort is eco friendly in a way with solar panels, and that may explain the reason with the aircon issue.

We traded our timeshare from another facility to stay there. The layout of the unit was nice, but it was a bit dated. It was a little tough a couple times, not having air conditioning. If you can't get an ocean or cliff view, it is not really worth it. Our bedroom Lanai was 5 feet from our car. Beach access is a bit of a challenge. It's over a mile walk or if you drive, you have access to about 10 parking spaces. the hot tub had some kind of chemical malfunction to where it was burning our eyes. read more

We have enjoyed visiting this property for over 30 years. The unit interiors are updated every so many years, and they are very spacious and well-equipped. Level of maintenance is high, service good. Probably the premiere non-hotel location in all of Princeville. Bottom line, at about 7:30 you want to be on the cliff, wine in hand, enjoying the marvelous sunsets. We have stayed at other timeshare facilities in Princeville, but we really feel this is the best. Staff are very helpful and make us always feel very welcome. Units are not air conditioned, but units all have fans and a little air movement normally is sufficient to make them comfortable, even in summer (we were just there in mid-July). We were also there in May and whales could be seen off shore still. Normally they are not around May to the Fall. It is very family-friendly, units comfortable accommodate four or more and the recreational amenities are well-maintained and plentiful. At the same time, as "empty nesters" at this point of our lives, the property is very peaceful, scenic and romantic that we love it just as much as when we had kids here. Most of the property is in timeshares, but there are also individually owned rental units which are not associated with the timeshares. Timeshare quality will be pretty uniform, but check on the individual landlord owners' ratings before booking. Most appear to be pretty great. No restaurant on site, but Princeville shopping center is a short drive away, and a modest walk to Hideaways Pizza or St. Regis. FYI, the road from Princeville down to Hanalei has now been repaired, and the road past Hanalei to Haena is again open... make your parking reservations for Haena well before you arrive. read more

Just spent a week here at the Cliffs in Princeville. The view from the property is beautiful especially when near the cliffs. Our room overlooked the cliff so we had a nice view of the ocean. Seems like lots of rooms don't come with an ocean view which would make this a less than desirable place to stay. The units are older and the furniture needs to be upgraded. Felt like I was at my grandparents house. No A/C in the units was a disappointment and left us feeling humid pretty much non stop. Ceiling fans and floor fans made sleeping bearable but moving around, cooking, ect....be prepared to be uncomfortable. It's December so take that for what it's worth. Also, we had our 3 teens with us and this property is definitely not geared towards kids. Pool is okay but "no toys allowed" so beware. My boys got kicked out because they were tossing a football around in the pool. Tennis court, basketball court, putting green and Free bikes were fun but no organized activities geared towards kids. Local grocery store is expensive so hit up Costco and Walmart after you fly in. If you need a quiet get a way and don't need the fancy this might be the spot. read more

I am fresh off my stay in the newly renovated building 3. I have to say the Cliffs knocked it out of the park once again. The unit I was in (3102) was magnificent. The attention to detail in the bathrooms and kitchen were standouts. There is nothing more important that having a great shower after an active day on the North Shore. The bathroom makeovers provided a functional and aesthetically pleasing place to wash off the sand and sweat of the day. The kitchen is galley style and provides enough space for two people to share meal prep duties. All the essential items are there and the dishwasher is whisper silent as not to disturb your trip to paradise. The new living room furniture is firm where needed, comfy and inviting. The best part is that the sleeper is actually comfortable and great for allowing your stay to be shared by a party of 4. The new decorator items bring Hawaii into your unit and are some of the best I've encountered on any island location I have stayed. The Cliffs is in the process of adding solar power to the property and the already attentive staff is going overboard to keep guests up to date and minimize any inconvenience. My hat is off to the everyone who works at the Cliffs and they really do treat you like Ohana. The pool is recently updated and offers a break from the beach if you desire one. Don't overlook on site bike rentals as it gives you the best opportunity to explore Princeville and find your own perfect photo/selfie spot. In short, you could stay at other North Shore locations but all you would do is pay too much money and be disappointed in the end. To stay at the Cliffs is to love the Cliffs. Aloha! Room Tip: Any room in Buildings 1, 2 or 3 are newly remodeled. Building 4, 5 , 6, 7, 8 and 9 have the best water views. read more

Rented a ground floor 1 bedroom condo for a week. (Note: if you brought a lot of heavy weight crap with you and have a 3rd floor room, there are NO elevators). Was very happy with the room & amenities. Had a jungle view, not ocean. Was quiet & private. Ate meals on the patio, was visited by birds, ubiquitous Kauai chickens & 2 hungry semi-feral cats. Bought some Friskies cat food and the cats became friendly after the 2nd nite. Big bedroom. Nice furniture. Comfortable bed, though Bambie did remark that it was a little too firm for her back. I liked it fine. Full kitchen has all the tools you need. There are two full bathrooms 50" flat screen standard definition TV, AM/FM stereo receiver with I-pod connection, DVD player. Wi-Fi speed is pretty fast for Kauai, probably 4Meg download speed All staff cheerful & helpful. No time-share hard sell. I traded my week from RCI, staff never mentioned a time-share promo. Nice home away from home. read more

What else is there to say, it was a smooth visit. There is no a/c units. We slept every night with windows open and it was cool enough from the ocean breeze. read more

No, this place isn't the newest, most modern place, but given the price and location, it's very reasonably priced. Our condo was great - the furniture wasn't particularly new or modern but it was in very good shape. The large lanai was perfect for breakfasts and dinners at home - lots of space with a big table to actually eat a full meal out there. The condo technically sleeps four, though I think four people would have been a tight squeeze (though the two bathrooms help considerably). The in-unit washer/dryer is also key. The facilities on the property are pretty decent - there's a swimming pool, a couple of hot tubs, a couple of tennis courts and a basketball court. The front desk/concierge has all sorts of sporting equipment for use by hotel guests. The Cliffs is just a short drive from Hanalei - 10-15 minutes - and is perfect for getting to all of the sites on the north shore. read more
