Thank you! We’re so happy the home was a great fit for your family and that you had such an amazing stay. We’d love to welcome you back with Gather for another fun getaway anytime!
This was the perfect place for our multi-generational family to enjoy. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed (even a crockpot!), the garage had all the beach supplies for us to use (snorkels, boogie boards, cooler, chairs, umbrellas etc), lots of puzzles and games for the rainy afternoons and that view of the mountain was a highlight! The beds were very comfortable, a/c was nice to have and everything was very clean. The management company was very quick to respond to my questions. Make note- the garage fit two full size cars, anything bigger might be really tight.

Thank you, Valerie! We're so glad the condo felt well-prepared and up to your standards—it means a lot to hear it left such a positive impression. We'd love to have you back anytime for another wonderful stay!
My five friends and I booked this property for a "girls' trip" in May 2025. The communication from the property company was great. The house was immaculate, and we all agreed that the kitchen was better stocked than our own kitchens at home! Loved that they had a few condiments in the kitchen and laundry supplies. Beds were surprisingly comfortable. The location was great. Would definitely recommend the property and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

It’s wonderful to know the home felt well-prepared and comfortable for your group—from the cozy beds to the fully stocked kitchen. We’d love to welcome you and your friends back for another unforgettable stay. Until next time, Gather will be ready!
We had three generations staying there ranging from late 60s to 6 months. The house was perfect. They had great equipment for the beach, a port a crib, high chair, great children’s books and some toys. Nice pool and a great location. We would definitely stay there again!

We're thrilled to hear that your family found everything needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Princeville, Julia! It's wonderful that the amenities suited everyone, from the youngest to the eldest. We're looking forward to hosting you again soon for another memorable visit!
We stayed with our multigenerational family (grandparents (70s), teens (16,19) my husband and myself and really enjoyed our stay! The unit was very well stocked, super clean and organized and an easy drive to Hanalei Bay and everything we needed. The management was very responsive and great to work with. The close proximity to the shuttle stop for the state park was great as well. The only reading didn’t give it five stars was the fact that it back the very busy, rather loud main road and there wasn’t really a place to eat together outside to enjoy the weather and the view. Otherwise it was a great experience!

Thanks for the thoughtful review, Laurel! We're so glad your multigenerational family enjoyed the clean, well-stocked home and easy access to Hanalei Bay. It’s great to hear our team was responsive and that the location worked well for your group. We appreciate your feedback on the outdoor setup and hope to welcome you back with Gather for another great stay!
Our party of eight included two families who stayed for a total of 11 days. This condo is spacious and very well appointed for comfort and convenience. The kitchen is well stocked for every conceivable need. The rooms are comfortable and we all felt at ease during our stay. The garage is also well stocked for days at the beach including beach chairs, shade umbrellas, boogie boards, and beach toys. When we asked questions of the host, they were extremely responsive and helpful. We highly recommend this condo to you and your family.

Casa Makara is truly AMAZING! It is incredibly clean and well-equipped! We had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry. Beds are comfortable, and everything in the house is in good shape. The location is convenient to stores and restaurants, and it’s a quick walk to the wonderful pool area. We spent a lot of time there! Great communication with property host. Would 100% recommend!

Thank you so much Emily for your wonderful review of Casa Makara! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic stay and that the house exceeded your expectations. We strive to provide our guests with a truly exceptional experience. We look forward to welcoming you to Gather in the future.
First off my family has stayed in about a dozen different homes/resorts/VRBOs/ Airbnb /condos and so far this has hands down been the best house and environment we have ever stayed in on the islands. Amazing house, kid and adult friendly, laundry, dishes, cooking, etc. We cannot express enough how fantastic this house was and how perfect it was for our family. We plan on making this an annual trip to 21A!

Thank you, Nathan! Your review truly warms our hearts! It's an honor to hear that our house stood out as the best among your extensive island stays. Creating a space that caters to both the young ones and adults, equipped with all the essentials for a carefree vacation, is what we aim for. We're already excited at the thought of welcoming you back next year for more unforgettable memories. Thanks again for choosing us and for planning to make Gather a part of your family's tradition!
The condo is exactly what is listed. It is beautiful and has everything you need (plus much more) to be comfortable and enjoy your vacation! I gave location 4* only because the back of the unit is next to the road. That wasn't a problem during the day, but being country folk, we're not used to the noise when we sleep. We had to use the air conditioner at night instead of leaving the windows open. The kids loved the pool as we grilled out multiple nights. We would definitely stay here again!

Thank you, Dea! We at Gather are so pleased that your family had a wonderful stay and enjoyed all the thoughtful touches the condo has to offer. We’d love the opportunity to host you again for more special memories!
Totally exceedingly expectations! I feel like the photos didn’t do the place justice. I’ll start with the house itself: it was awesome. We had 2 couples and 3 kids. That little bonus bunkbed room was awesome so everyone could have a bed to themselves and there were doors that closed. House was super clean and had everything we needed and then some. I totally thought I’d be entering a pretty bare house based off of the photos but it had so many extras like boogie boards, sand toys, chairs, umbrella, canopy, wagon, snorkel stuff, kitchen gadgets, spices, plenty of shampoo and conditioner, beach towels, laundry soap. The garage was big enough to fit our mini van. It is a townhome which I don’t think I realized from the photos so you are connected to a neighbor. But the neighborhood was super quiet and the neighbor was really friendly and quiet as well. The location was amazing. I loved running on the path next to the golf course that was right by the house. Princeville was a fabulous location to stay at and I don’t think I’ll stay anywhere else from now on. The property management was great to work with as well. Super responsive and detailed with the upcoming trip and giving me all the info I needed. When checking in I didn’t realize the keypad was right above the door handle. Totally my fault but I ended up calling at about 6 pm panicked that the code wasn’t working and someone answered right away and patiently waited for me to stop being an idiot and find the keypad.
