This place made us fell at home away from home. Have been to the Hawaiin Islands over 20 times( Kawai 4) We always stop at Costco/Safeway to load upon essentials for our stay. Could have skipped it this time and saved some -This place is stocked!!! Felt guilty at times using their stuff.Can't beat the location--Beaches, Sunsets, Walking Trails,Views, Ect. It is super clean. Great communication with notes posted to answer throughout. It Exceeded our expecations!!!!

Great place to stay

We had a wonderful time exploring the island and coming back to the villa to rest. It's a beautiful location, in great shape, and a perfect home-base to get out and see things. It slept the four of us comfortably, the kitchen was well stocked to cook in the evenings, and it is minutes from beaches.

Northern Kauai Gem

This little gem was a great place to stay while exploring the island. Most of the things we wanted to do or see were on the north shore, so it was a perfect place for us. Enjoyed having a tub to soak in after a long hike, and the lanai's to just watch the world go round.

Third Trip to the Turtle House!

This was my third time staying at the Turtle House and my first time bringing extended family. My in-laws were visiting Hawaii for the first time, and we wanted to bring them to Kauai because it's our favorite island! The accommodations were very comfortable for 4 adults, and we appreciated how well-stocked the kitchen was for cooking. We bought fish at the Dolphin Fish Market and along with our Costco trip on day one, it was the perfect way to spend more time together in the comfort of a home. It's great that the house has beach chairs, snorkel gear, etc. because my family was able to split up and do whatever activities they wanted. This time we mostly stayed on the North Shore because the weather was so lovely. We did a couple of big hikes, enjoyed the shopping in Kilauea and Hanalei, and visited the nearby Hotel 1 for drinks during a beautiful sunset. Never want to stay anywhere else on the island. This is the best! Many thanks to Irina for always being such a lovely hostess and keeping her home a wonderful place to visit.

Perfect in many ways

This is an exceptionally clean and well organized property. The owners have truly poured their hearts into it and it shows. The location is amazing, being right on the Makai golf course and so close to the Princeville center. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. We enjoyed nearby farmers markets, evening walks on the golf course, and seeing the glorious sunsets. There are a handful of beaches nearby to choose from. The owner is very attentive and responsive. We absolutely enjoyed staying in this villa!

Wonderful property! Location & views!

I was nothing but impressed with this condo. You could not ask for a better location: back from the road and close to a dead end of the road, so little traffic; almost directly across the street from a cliff-side ocean view; within short walk of a restaurant w/great pizza and salads, and in other direction a hotel w/ public access to the beach; Views of mountains and golf course from the decks! The place was super clean. The kitchen completely outfitted with everything you could need. Generous and complete gear for beach-going. Helpful books of sight-seeing recommendations. Very comfortable all around. We would definitely try to stay here again if ever in Kauai again!! Thank you so much for sharing this place!! J&S

Lovely place--love Princeville!

Great place overall to stay in the North Shore. Easy access to Hanalei and the north shore Napali Coast snorkel tour. We love this part of the island. The VRBO was more of a townhome--2 stories. Kitchen/living area/lanai/1/2 bath on 2nd floor (main access point), and downstairs had 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and laundry. It was quiet, except for the lawnmowers for the golf course that came super early. Very clean and well maintained. Great place to stay.

Even better than expected!

Irina & Robert thought of everything at this home. They manage it themselves and put a lot of attention to detail into their home. You really do have everything you could imagine at their house, much of which is listed in their VRBO inventory (i.e. beach towels, umbrellas, chairs, etc.). The house was spotless and I would recommend you keep it that way by taking shoes off at the front door for example and shaking out/washing off anything sandy. The area is undersold. I wasn't sure what to expect of this part of Princeville but you are a 5 minute walk to Hideaway beach (tough access if you're not in top form) and can drive to many other beaches. We walked to the resort just next to the house and enjoyed a drink and the sunset. There's another beach down there which is about a 10 minute walk but considerably easier to get to. Irina was very easy to communicate with but we didn't need much as the house really does have everything. I'm so glad I booked this spot- it's quiet, comfortable and cosy. Loved it!

The home was really outstanding - the owner communication, cleanliness, and layout were really perfect. The only issue was a lack of air conditioning, which resulted in mosquitoes in the bedroom and a lack of privacy (visually and noise) from neighbors next door.

The Turtle House

This was the perfect house to stay for our first visit to Kauai. Irina and Robert were great property owners and checked on us the first day to make sure we got in ok and didn't need anything. The house was immaculately clean and everything was labeled so it was easy to find what we were looking for. The house was also stocked with pantry items such as, cooking spices, condiments and oils which we appreciated immensely as we did not have any of those and did plan to cook some meals at the house. The location was great as well, walking distance to a beautiful golf course as well as some restaurants. We rented a car and there was an assigned parking spot close to the house for us to use. We were 10 driving minutes from a shopping village with a grocery store and nice restaurants as well as shops. Irina even checked in on us mid trip to let us know about some paving work being done in the parking lot, we were appreciative of the heads up. When it was time to leave all the directions for closing up and cleaning up was posted clearly in the kitchen so there was no questions as to what was expected of us. We will definitely recommend the turtle house to any friends planning a visit and we would love to stay at this house again on our next visit.

Beautiful property and lovely stay!

We spent a week at Turtle house in Princeville over “ski week”. The home is beautiful and has everything for a comfortable vacation! We appreciated the extra touches such as the large amount of spices and mustard/soy sauce etc (in the fridge door). The home was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The owners provided beach towels and chairs which was really great since we obviously didn’t bring any! Walking to Pu’u Poa beach is super easy on the walking path next to the Hotel. Hideaway beach is also fairly easy to reach-though a little trickier because of the mud. The one watch out for this home are the number of steps up to the front door and then down inside to the bedrooms as they’re on the lower level. It didn’t affect any of us as we’re all athletic and in good shape but if you have knee or hip issues I can see how it might be a little more of a challenge. We experienced quite a bit of rain during our stay but didn’t let it stop us…we still had a memorable stay and look forward to our next time on the beautiful garden island! Mahalo nui loa!
