Take a 10 minute hike along the path to Anini Beach for a swim and stop in at the Westin on your way back to grab a coffee at Starbucks or lunch either indoors or out. Stroll over to the park on Saturday mornings for the outdoor market, you're sure to find something there that you love! The Princeville center, with grocery shopping, wine shop, and restaurants, is an easy walk. Hanalei, one of the most amazing spots on earth - whether you like beach, shopping, dining, or all of the above! - is a 10 minute drive.

Newer remodeled bathroom with updated washer and dryer. Very clean and well stocked. Even though it was an efficiency it came with quite a few countertop appliances including a microwave and toaster oven and even an electric frying pan. Location was great and the host was very responsive and communicative.

Beautiful condo with so many amenities. The only thing that would make it perfect is air conditioning but the fans were sufficient.

Reviewer Comments:
This place was adorable. I loved the decor and cleanliness. Be careful climbing up the stairs in the rain. The stairs are slippery and my friend fell and hurt her foot. Could use a grip tape on the stairs. I loved the layout. The kitchen was cozy and clean. The bed was very difficult to get comfortable in. You could feel the wear of somebody sleeping on the right side of the mattress.I loved the trail hike nearby.It was difficult to get ahold of anyone about my friend falling. No one answers the phones over the weekend it seems.

We had a great experience staying here! The unit was easy to locate, the grounds were quiet and well-maintained, and there was a shopping center close by. The unit itself was exactly as described. For a studio, it felt spacious. The in-unit laundry was a big plus.
The apartment suite was great! Everything was super clean and the bathroom was extremely spacious! There were even boogie boards, beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and two snorkel/fin sets to use in one of the closets. The kitchenette allowed for some simple cooking, and the sunny balcony was amazing for eating and relaxing! We loved our stay here!

Mahalo Nastja - we appreciate your feedback and are happy you had a great time on Kauai! Mahalo
Very nice studio condo! Location was perfect for a short walk to the beach for our morning coffee, or to the shopping center. (Both walks were about 1/2 mile, though the beach walk was a bit of a descent). Kitchen was well stocked for light cooking for those who prefer to eat in sometimes. We appreciated the small touches like the beach chairs and umbrella, and the rain umbrella, too!

Nice location to head a little north or south for beaches. The condo is in a neighborhood of condos. This particular condo complex is quiet, not busy, nice. I especially like the path behind the condo to the beach.
Simple but everything we needed.

We had an excellent time at Paniolo 210B. My partner and I stayed for 3 nights. The unit was exactly as described and very comfortable. We enjoyed the short walk to the quiet Anini Beach and the drive to other North Shore attractions. The price could not be beat and we felt as though we got amazing value during our stay. Would highly recommend this unit!

Thank you Susan! Glad you had a pleasant stay and a great time on Kauai. The two legged alarm clocks are happy to pester residents and visitors alike. Hope you come back again! Mahalo
The location of the condo was okay. It was okay clean, the sofa needs a good cleaning, bed cover had stuff on it. Pillows were not very good. Wish there was a few more cooking options like a stove top. Appreciate there was a BBQ by the pool to use. Neighbors were very noisy.

Mahalo for the feedback, Sarah, we appreciate you letting us know what we need to work on! We'll be addressing the issues mentioned as soon as possible. We apologize for the noisy neighbors, and we hope you managed to have a relaxing and restorative vacation in spite of their disruption! Safe travels and happy holidays :)
My husband and I stayed at Paniolo for the tail end of our honeymoon in Kauai. I didn’t realize this VRBO was managed by a company so after booking, all communications and payment was through their own system… I would have preferred to use VRBO directly.
Overall this was a good location for visiting spots on the North Shore. Easy drive to Hanalel and great beaches up there. The parking situation is weird. It’s a free for all until 5 and then reserved parking is enforced. I don’t know why it’s not just park in your spot all day but it didn’t really cause us any issues.
The shower doesn’t have a curtain so water got EVERYWHERE.
The place was nice, clean and comfortable for our brief stay. I would not have attempted to cook anything more than toast or heat up leftovers.
The beach equipment was helpful but the straps on the chairs are broken so they’re hard to carry.
Overall a good spot if you aren’t planning to spend much time at home.

Thank you for leaving another review Chelsea! We're glad to hear that your time at Paniolo was well suited for your island exploring, and we hope you enjoyed plenty of relaxing beach days. We'll have the beach chairs replaced as soon as possible, thank you for letting us know, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We'll also be adding a shower curtain so that bathing is a less...splashy experience. We hope you had a wonderful honeymoon on Kauai, and we hope to see you on the island again soon. Mahalo!
Great comunications both before and durning our stay. The unit was very clean.
