About this property

Hidden retreat in Princeville, on the north shore of Kauai.

A rare combination of amenities exists at Lei Aloha, a hidden retreat. Gates lead into a private courtyard, completely enclosed by a stucco wall and tropical plants, including plumeria, heliconia, gardenia, and torch ginger. In the center of the courtyard is a 16' x 40' swimming pool, patio space, and a lawn. Lei Aloha is oriented to take advantage of refreshing trade winds that keep it a comfortable temperature.

Upon entering this custom-built home, you are greeted by a magnificent view of towering Norfolk Island Pines that sway in the breeze. These graceful giants, framed by the soaring windows of the great room, flank the fairway of a frisbee golf course – fun for the whole family!

Lei Aloha is comfortable and tastefully appointed. This breezy, Hawaiian home of over 3200 sq. ft. offers a primary suite and two guest bedrooms on the first level, all opening onto the courtyard and the pool through French doors. An additional primary suite is located on the second level and features a deck that overlooks the pool.

Enjoy your morning coffee on the lanai, or on the lawn under a palm tree next to the pool. Fire up the gas barbecue on the patio for that fresh mahi-mahi from the local fish market and serve it on an outdoor dining table gracing the patio. Professional landscape artists care for the tropical fruit and foliage that will delight your senses. There is almost always a ripe papaya on one of the papaya trees, and fresh citrus available for cooking or cocktails! Fragrances of mock orange, pua kenikeni, jasmine and pikake at various times of the year will confirm that you are in paradise!

Princeville is the gateway to an amazing range of activities available on the scenic North Shore. Just a few minutes' drive will have you kayaking emerald rivers, touring the canyons and valleys by helicopter, hiking along the Na Pali Coast, horseback riding to waterfalls, deep-sea fishing and whale-watching. The shops and restaurants of Princeville Center are just a short walk from the house. Or for a truly local shopping and dining experience, nearby Hanalei offers varied cuisine and bohemian boutiques, as well as a long, crescent-shaped beach, great for a moonlit stroll.

Princeville's weather often includes brilliant, tropical sunshine and occasional, scattered rain showers throughout the day. A benefit of these brief showers is that our vegetation on the north side of Kauai is much more green and lush than the more arid and desert-like South Shore. Although there can be more rainfall in the winter season in Princeville, it is rare to experience prolonged periods of precipitation. Princeville's temperature is mild and pleasant throughout the year, with only a small temperature difference between night and day. Water temperatures tend to average around 80 degrees in the summer and 73 degrees in the winter.

The pool at Lei Aloha, like most pools in Hawaii, is heated by the warm, tropical sun. The water temperature will vary with the weather conditions. In the winter, the water will usually be in the mid-70s, and in the summer, the low to mid-80s. We find that guests coming from very cold climates find the pool enjoyable, even in the winter months. Those who have enjoyed this property generally agree that on a warm day, the pool feels refreshing, whatever the temperature!

Kauai stay
Our stay was absolutely amazing and the rental company was so easy to work with and so communicative! Check in was seamless and checkout was relaxed. Our group had 6 adults and 7 kids under the age of 4 and we all fit comfortably with plenty of room to spare! The kids LOVED the pool- they swam everyday :) If and when we come back to Kauai we will definitely be staying here again!

Lovely Princeville home
We greatly enjoyed our stay. Highlights included the beautiful great room (it rained a fair bit, so we spent time inside), the accessible location, the large pool and peaceful surroundings and the nicely decorated bedrooms. Kitchen was also nicely appointed.

About the host

Hosted by Kauai Vacation Rentals and Real Estate, Inc

Host profile image
Here we are at Hanakapiai Falls, doing what the tourists do! We run a vacation rental business in one of the most beautiful spots in the world, the Monterey Peninsula, on the central coast of California. Because we are in the vacation rental business, we completely understand the needs of those who choose to stay in vacation homes. You will find that we have not missed a thing in preparing Lei Aloha to accommodate your most memorable vacation!

Why they chose this property

We selected the north side of Kauai for its verdant, lush environment and slow pace. More specifically, we selected Princeville for its access to golf and the great beaches of the north shore. Finally, we did not choose Lei Aloha, it chose us! The moment we walked through the gate, the house called our names! It had everything we wanted - great tropical breezes, a generous pool, good privacy, and a golf course view!

What makes this property unique

One of the things we especially like about this property is the layout. Because the master suite is on the opposite end of the house as the guest rooms, everyone is afforded the quiet and privacy of being in separate suites. Furthermore, each guest can enter the enclosed yard and pool area without disturbing other guests. We often slip out to the lanai and have morning coffee beside the pool before our guests have arisen for the day!
