Castle at Princeville - Princeville

This is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo. Plenty of room. No hotel amenities. It's very dated and sparse but has everything you need for two couples or a family. Would be nice if they provided beach towels.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Jan 11, 2013 thru Jan 23, 2013, the oceanfront unit we stayed in had a prefect view of the ocean, which we totally enjoyed. The unit is in need of a major upgrade the furniture is the original stuff right out of the 70’s. Although, this was our second visit for thirteen days and we stayed at the same Condo because of the prefect view. The kitchen had […] everything we needed which is always a plus when visiting Hawaii, for eating in. Finally, this resort provides what you are looking for if you are there to enjoy the island and not exhaust your rainy day fund. Read more

This was actually not a hotel, but a 2br/2ba condo located in a residential community in Princeville. It has its own kitchen, as well as a washer and dryer. For the price, we felt that this was a really great place to stay. We were there in the winter time, so the lack of AC was absolutely not an issue. The location is great (there's even a private […] access path leading down to a cool little beach). Would absolutely recommend this place. Read more

Great location although difficult to find due to the name on the facility and the name of the rental organizaiton. The place shows wear and can use a good cleaning but is comfortable and has good promise.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We had a very pleasant stay at Pali Ke Kua. This is private apartments (we understand) and thus not a hotel per say. I suppose each place is different but the overall standard was good even though some things in our place was a bit old. We had a stunning view from our place and that was probably the best in combination with being in the center of all […] activities in and around Princeville. Even though our rating might not show it we can recommend this for a small family or a couple who wants to have abit of self service. Read more

The location was good, right in Princeville. The place was clean and had a garden/mountain view. The pool and hot tub were very nice (remodeled March 2012).

Genuine Expedia guest review

Beautiful view and sunset. Nice cooling trade winds through the rooms. A lot of dust covering furniture and counter tops. Otherwise clean and nice linens.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Accommodations were a 4 but the view was a 5+. The sunsets from the patio were superb. Unit was not fancy but comfortable, bed very comfortable. The night breezes cooled the unit, but be aware there is no A/C for the hot afternoons. Great base for excursions within easy reach. We would go back there in a heartbeat!

rusty shower curtain. very helpful and knowledgeable staff. beautiful view of the mountains and sunset over the water every day. downstairs gets a bit too much noise from upstairs. private beach and snorkeling area. will seek to stay here in the future in an upstairs room.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The condo was fine but nothing special, but the view was spectacular. It was perfectly comfortable, though a little old. The light in the bathroom didn't come on sometimes. But both the bed and the trundle bed were quite comfortable. And again, the ocean view from the room and the Princeville setting were absolutely fantastic.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I had high expectations given the online pictures, price and location. This hotel was a big let down. The condo has not seen a remodel since the early 90's (or a complete cleaning for that matter). We purchased an ocean front room but only recieved a partial ocean view. The room was very hot and did not have ac or adequate ventilation. We actually had […] to pull the mattress from the bedroom and lay it on the ground near the patio door get decent air flow. There was no room service during out stay, but at least staff at the front desk were friendly. Read more

This condo was located in Paradise! We loved all the greenery in Princeville, the gorgeous landscaping at our condo, the short distance (steep walk) to Hideaways Beach, and the cliffs were breathtaking. You do need a car to get around, but with a car you can get to several beautiful beaches nearby, many nice restaurants and shopping quickly. We hated […] to leave, but we'll be back! Aloha.

Though the buildings remind you of the 70's, the view is AWESOME! We couldn't have gotten a better view of the sunsets and Hannelei Bay. This is supposed to be the wetter part of the island, but we were fortunate and didn't get any rain. The place was comfortable and furnishings were adequate. Don't go for the room interior, go for the views...no one […] can match it! Read more

There is no service. You need to be very independent. Even we went between 8:00 to 4:00 pm during service hour. There is no one there.

Hotels. com needs to inform you about this hotel. First of all it is not a hotel. It is a group of condominiums without handicap accessibility. I had to walk up three stories to get to my unit. Secondly there is no front desk or sign to identify the office and it is not open after 5 pm or on weekends. I finally found my key in a lock box. The condo […] itself was not bad. Just get info before going! Read more

This is not what they advertise. I thought I was booking a hotel but this is a condo with no hotel service. I did not get my room cleaned on a daily basis (service not provided), my internet and half of the electric outlets in the apartment were not working and there was no one to fix it during the entire stay. I paid for a hotel room and got a cheap […] vacation rental. I would not recommend this to anyone. For the money I paid go to a real hotel or to a vacation rental for half the money. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The situation in respect of vista was wonderful. The condo was very shabby and not completely clean. Facilities were basic and poor, ancient equipment and, for example, only three mugs. Reception was open only sporadically and this was very inconvenient, especially when trying to check out. The most disappointing place we have stayed in Hawaii having […] lived and worked here for more than two years. Read more

The view was worth the price. There was no staff on site to help get us internet access or ask questions, however, we figured things out and eventually got internet service.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We were looking for a reasonably priced condo for a week stay for a family wedding and found the Castle. It is hard to find, as they still had signs up for the previous owner name, but the condo was clean and beautiful. There is a grocery store nearby and many other conveniences within a few minutes. We decided to get the mountain view and it was AMAZING!! […] The complex was very quiet and felt quite safe. All rooms had ceiling fans and there were vents on every wall. The bathrooms were very spacious and clean. My family was staying all around and all commented on how beautiful our condo was. A great value, and wonderful stay! I look forward to returning!

The photo shows a pool but upon arrival we were told the pool was not for the unit we had booked but for the more expensive units. The location is good but you will need to drive a few miles for beach access since you are on a cliff. We had a lower unit and could hear every step our upstairs neighbor took. We slept with earplugs. Overall our experience […] was average and I think we just expected a little more from the Princeville area. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The condo was good but next time I would specify beach view, mountain view was limited. Make sure you arrive when staff is there during their normal business hours as after hours arrival was difficult. Could use some AC but cooled off at night. Oh my gosh make sure you go to the beach at the end of the highway for great easy snorkling, bring your gear. […] The hike to the falls at that beach was awesome but difficult 8 mile round trip. The area was really cool, and has a hawaiin tropical feel. Not too expensive compared the other islands we stayed on. Check out bubbas for a burger. Pleanty of beaches where you could be all alone. Golf look great but didn't do it. Great sunsets. Read more

This is not a Hotel!! It is someone's townhouse. I was totally disappointed with the advertising as a "Hotel." Nobody there to check me in (had to find a key in a lockbox), nobody available by phone, no air conditioning (hot weather!), and horribly run down.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The condo we were placed in was older and slightly dumpy but we really enjoyed our stay. The dining nook had an incredible view of the surrounding mountains and the grounds, which were very spacious and well maintined.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My only complaint was when we got delayed and arrived around midnight, we spent the better part of an hour trying to find this hotel, as there was no sign "Castle at Princeville". Once we drove up and down the correct street about 5 times, we tried to go off of the street address only to find that we couldn't find many places that indicated their street […] number on their property. Resorting to stopping in every single complex, we finally stumbled across a closed office with "The castle" on the door, and were able to get our keys through a lock box. Office hours are from 9 to 5, and there is no help in trying to find this place….ALL that aside, the room was great, very comfy, very large, and a great location. We will definitely be back now that we know how to find it!!!! SUGGESTION: PUT A SIGN OUT FRONT!!!! Read more

The unit itself was great. I requested a one bedroom mountain view and received two bedrooms, each with a living room area at the cottages (Rm. 101). We had a nice long deck in the back but there was no view. A forest right behind the deck and a lot of mosquitos. We couldn't use the deck because of the mosquitos and were still eaten alive by them. There […] is also no air conditioning and if I knew we had no access to the pool (which was across the road) I wouldn't have booked this condo. We will definitly never stay here again. Read more

This was wonderful. We were greeted each morning to a gaggle of Nene (the Hawaiian state bird and very endangered species). The condo was just right not fancy but clean and comfortable with an amazing view. You must spring for the ocean view. The beach is a great snorkeling beach, we never had more then 10 people to share it with. The kitchen was fine […] and we were able to make everything we wanted (I might bring a sharp knife next time). The staff was friendly and helpful. We felt safe enough to sleep with the just the screen door on the bottom floor. Read more

I stayed in hotel Castle at Princeville - this hotel has a great location. Lots of space in the unit , well equiped kitchen. It was good choice.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Princeville is beautiful and the accommodations were beyond our expectations. We booked a 1 bedroom but found a master bedroom with private bath, a living room and kitchen area with two sofas, and an upstairs loft with a twin bed and trundle bed beneath it. Wow! Also the washer and dryer was very handy and we didn't have to pack as many clothes knowing […] it was available to do laundry there. The Castle property was quiet and very beautiful. Next time we will upgrade to an ocean-view room though, because the view is absolutely beautiful! We went in March and saw whales breaching out at sea. One drawback to the Castle is that it sits on a hill above the ocean and you can't just run out the back door to the beach. However, a beautiful beach is just a short walk away and the prices at the Castle made it worthwhile. We loved every minute of our stay. Read more

We were very surprised to be assigned villas when we booked something called the 'Castle'. They were 2 bedrooms and 2 baths but only 1 person stayed in each of the villas. We could have shared a villa had we known. The pool was nice and the location was close to Princeville. One of the villas overlooked a beautiful garden. Each villa had a full kitchen […] which we did not use much. Read more

I believe these are individually owned condos that are rented out as hotel rooms. First the good news, this condo/hotel was at an excellent location with one of the most incredible views overlooking the bay. Its a beautiful, million dollar location right on the cliffs with both ocean and mountain views. Absolutely wonderful to wake up to in the morning […] then watch the sun set in the evening. The room was big and the kitchen was nice and clean as well. However, the owners did not continue that beautiful trend inside the bedroom. It was as if they spent all their money on the beautiful location and in their rush to rent it out, filled it with cheap furnishings they found at a garage sale. Cheap (full size) mattress, rough starchy sheets, tiny tv and couch. When you’re spending good money to rent an romantic ocean view room, you expect the bedding to be halfway decent instead of an afterthought. There was nothing comfy or relaxing about it. Sadly, I felt this place could have a 5+ rating if it only upgraded with a decent queen size bed with soft comfortable sheets. Read more

I am so looking forward to my next stay at the Castle, I was very pleased with my room along with the spectacular ocean view. I thank Jaymie for her warm hospitality during my stay. Yes, I highly recommend the Castle very much.

Trotz Buchung eines Bergblick-Zimmers bekamen wir ohne Aufschlag ein Zimmer mit Meerblick weil das Hotel wohl nicht voll war. Zu diesem Zimmer gehörte eine Terasse mit einem unglaublichen Blick auf die Bucht. Ein großartiger Start für unseren Urlaub.
