  We loved this place so much. We are very grateful for the experience, would so love to come back. The sunrises were glorious, the birds and sounds of the ocean were so serene. Appreciated the snorkel and mask provided. Overall experience, a dream.
  Only suggestion, more towels, cover for the sofa, one more set of sheets.

  WE LOVED OUR STAY IN SEA LODGE E8!!! The pictures do not even begin to show the beauty of the views. It was so incredible waking up every morning to a beautiful sunrise view from the comfort of your bed!
  
  The condo was very clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. We cooked a lot of our meals and we had all the utensils we needed to do so! There were also beach chairs, boogie boards, some snorkeling gear, movies, books, games, etc etc that made the stay a lot of fun too!
  
  My favorite place to hang out was the bay window in the front room. The view was so beautiful I couldn't believe it!
  
  Princeville is a quiet, peaceful town compared to the rest of the island-- perfect for a relaxing vacation! You are given a code to the door at the condo so you never even have to deal with checking in, and we never heard our neighbors-- we felt like we had it all to ourselves! Close to serene beachs and great hikes!
  
  Bring change for the laundry on site; we packed a little baggie of laundry soap and dryer sheets to save on buying it there.
  
  We are very pleased with our stay if you can't tell from this review; we'd stay again!

  The location is perfect for us. The condo is very clean and comfortable. The view looking out over the reefs and to the lighthouse and the sunrise are about as beautiful as it gets. It's always nice to have chairs and a cooler to take to the beach. The one thing that we both noticed were the cushions on the couch, the chair and the large blue cushion next to the window. They could use a good washing. Other than that we would like to return sometime and stay at E8. Thank you very much,

  Andrew H from Milford, OH recommends this vacation rental

  This condo is in a perfect place on the North Shore. It is out of the way, yet convenient for Hanalei and grocery shopping. Little places to eat and shop near by too. A bit far if you are spending lots of time on the South or West, but a one day trip that way is not bad. So worth it for the spectacular view. We woke to wonderful sunrises over the Kilauea Lighthouse and Anini Beach. Peaceful. Lack of Air conditioning was not a problem for us since the sea breeze cooled everything off fine. Great little condo for two trying to lay back and rest and spend time together.

  Bruno H from Watertown, MA recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed at Sealodge E8 for our honeymoon, and the condo was more than we expected; it was simple but included everything we could possibly need for our stay. It was organized and clean when we arrived. The oceanfront view from the bedroom window, the Lanai, and the porch was absolutely breathtaking. The advertising pictures totally understate the views. It was very relaxing to listen to the ocean and feel the breeze every night. Sealodge beach is a great place for snorkeling, and is never crowded. Would definitely return to Sealodge E8 in the future!!

  a guest from Vail, Arizona recommends this vacation rental

  This is a very nice property although it is a not "fancy" or plush. The views cannot be beat and the unit was comfortable. It is well equipped (although the blinds were broken in living room and kitchen - a bit annoying) and has everything you will need for your stay. Nice bedding, towels, shower - even had beach chairs and boogie board. I wish the beach had been more accessible - very steep walk and it was rainy for the first couple of days so very muddy and slippery. Close to shopping and only 15 minutes to Hanalei Beach so location otherwise was great! I would stay there again but if you are looking for something plush this is more standard fare. They were very accommodating and overall it was a great experience!

  a guest from Anchorage, Alaska recommends this vacation rental

  This was our 14th trop to Kauai. We have stayed in another Sealodge unit many times but this was our first time in this one. The only things that dropped the score a little was the lack of on-site WI-FI and no fan. As we read though, in the info, there were a couple of WI-FI signals in the area so that wasn't really that big a deal. We answered "yes" to the question about recommending this unit to a friend to show our rating of the place but we aren't telling anyone about it. We did exactly that with the unit where we normally stay and it ended up rented at the time we normally use it. So you got us in E8 and we will be back. Thanks for helping make this an incredibly relaxing two weeks.

  Kitchen dishes and utensils surprisingly cheap - thrift store variety. Two drinking glasses were cracked upon arrival. Living room furniture uncomfortable, but clean and looked nice. Incredible views, great lanai, good bed, very clean, condo very quiet, very nice grounds. Would return.

  We enjoyed our stay tremendously in E-8. Everything was good, except that we had two light bulbs burn out, and someone brought us exactly two replacements. We thought an extra one or two would have been good! And, having to buy our own TP seemed kind of cheap.
  
  Really enjoyed our stay!

  Matt B from South Boston, MA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Although the interior was dated, the Sealodge E8 was a clean and affordable place to stay. (The furniture looked like it was pulled from the set of Golden Girls. The owners should upgrade the furtiture and fixtures to something more modern. The only real issue was that the lights/outlets in the bedroom weren't working.)
  
  Kaui was beautiful, but Princeville is so sterile I felt like i could have been in a retirementment community in FL or AZ. The only way you will see a local is if they are working on the property.

  Brittany R from Ravenna, OH recommends this vacation rental

  This vacation rental in Princeville exceeded my expectations. Princeville, in my opinion, is the ONLY place to stay on the island, and SeaLodge is in one of the most ideal spots with both ocean and mountain views. The condos are kept in pristine condition and our unit was simple yet clean and functional. The view was tremendous--just how it looks in the pictures! I would recommend this unit in a heartbeat.
  
  Some things you should know:
  
  There is no air-conditioning, but the unit is kept fairly cool by the natural ocean breezes.
  
  There is very limited wireless internet connection in this unit.
  
  The Sealodge Beach involves a fairly treacherous hike, but it's worth it. If you're interested in easy beach access, several great beaches are a short drive north in Hanalei.

  a guest from Laguna Niguel, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Our view for the price we paid was AMAZING! I would sometimes just lie in bed and stare out the window at the vast Pacific Ocean. My ONLY complaint was that our specific rental wasn't as clean as it could be--the carpet hadn't been vacuumed (there were small pieces of lego toys, and food particles on the ground), and we did find a couple of ****-roaches on the counter the first night. No big deal to us; they never reappeared. Like I said, the view and location could cancel out anything bad about this place. We also loved having use of the beach chairs and extra beach towels in the closet.

  a guest from Veneta, OR recommends this vacation rental

  I stayed w/a friend for 10 nights and we loved the location overlooking the reef. It was a good location for us in that our main interest was to explore beaches and the surrounding area. It was cooler than usual and windy as heck most of the 10 days. The unit was pretty clean on the surface, but lots of food crumbs in cupboards and on top of frig. We did a catch and release of 2 roaches. They had pretty good kitchen tools, except: a warped cutting board and a rusted can opener. Our only real problem w/the unit was the smell of mold. The exaust fan in the bathroom was clogged and not venting out. We left windows closed during our time away, as instructed, but the place had a very moldy smell to come home to.
  The units vary in decor and upgrade, so I would stay here again, just in another unit. We found our stay to be mostly pretty quiet, except for some construction in the unit above. We used the small pool once, but too windy to enjoy much of that. We were glad they had laundry on the property. Be sure and get the codes for the pool and laundry before you arrive, we had to ask around to get them. We were quite taken by the beautiful views. Be sure to check out the island farmers market schedule~they are well worth going to.

    We now have a new cleaning service for Sealodge E8, which has resolved the problems you note. Come back again, you'll enjoy the difference!
