North Shore Kauai Villa, Ocean Views, Private Hot Tub with Ocean Views, Beach Gear, AC in Bedrooms

Surf Song, in Princeville Kauai, is a luxury private licensed vacation rental home with four air conditioned bedrooms and four ensuite bathrooms. It is situated on a bluff overlooking the Pacific ocean on the iconic North Shore of Kauai. Enjoy ocean vistas from almost every room of this pristine, modern yet tranquil home while listening to the relaxing sound of waves breaking on the shore below. With a 10 minute walk to a secluded beach, yet within a pleasant walk or bike ride (plenty of bikes provided) of Princeville's full facilities, this is the perfect retreat. So many of the beautiful places and beaches that Kauai has to offer are close at hand, but you may just find that all you want to do is stay and enjoy!

Surf Song is centered on an expansive, vaulted great room which opens fully to the wide oceanside lanai. Adjacent on the ocean are an ultra modern, fully equipped chef's kitchen and an entertainment area with new, high-end electronics. Two oceanfront master suites offer ocean sights and sounds from both bedrooms and bathrooms. All four bedrooms are air-conditioned with silent, individually controlled systems. Each has a luxury, modern ensuite bathroom with pebble floors and Kohler/Grohe fixtures. Each has sliding doors opening to a lanai.

The home is equipped throughout with top of the line, genuine Tommy Bahama furniture. The atmosphere is one of casual, Plantation - style elegance. Lovely Sealodge beach ('A Real Gem' in the Kauai Revealed guidebook) is directly below the property and walkable in 5 or 10 minutes. (The path is steep in places and can be slippery when wet so runner type shoes are better than "slippahs"!). Full concierge services are available; Ocean or land activities, massage or private yoga on the oceanfront deck or private chef. Please ask the owner for more details. We would be delighted to help.

Once you arrive at Surf Song, at the very end of a peaceful, exclusive cul-de-sac, see the fabulous location and glimpse the ocean beyond, you will know that you chose wisely. On entering the home, you will be greeted by the expansive ocean view shared by almost all the rooms in the house, and the gentle sound of surf breaking on coral in the pristine bay below

Best Vacation Ever!!!
The house is amazing and the views are stunning from every room. The labeling of everything and instructions were very helpful, they supplied all the necessities and were very responsive with any questions/communication. We loved our welcome basket too! The location and neighborhood are great. We had albatross nesting right outside our door (the way they greet each other was so fun to watch/hear) and we saw a couple whales surface at a distance from the balcony. There is a shopping area within walking distance and the views along the way are stunning. It was truly heaven on earth!

A perfect vacation spot
This is a beautiful home with an unbelievable view. The house has every amenity you want for a beach vacation. It is very well maintained and the outdoor space, including spa, large dining table, chairs and chaise lounges, are terrific. The best compliment I can offer is that we would definitely stay here again.

Surf Song Review
We spent a wonderful week at Surf Song. The home is at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and is above a small beach. The view from the lanai is spectacular, we saw whales every day. Princeville is a great location, Hanalei is a short drive and the NaPali Coast not much further. The owner is easy to work with and his local manager responds promptly if needed.

There were 11 of us in our party and we had plenty of room. The toys in the garage were a huge plus and cost savings. Simon has thought of most everything and was very helpful. We would all love to come back again.

Can't wait to go back!
We are so happy we chose to stay at Surf Song for our vacation. It was the perfect get away for a couples stay! The location was close to everything and the house was exactly what we wanted.....very clean and nicely decorated. We spent the majority of the time relaxing on the deck and we now know why the name of the house is Surf Song....listening to the waves crash was very special. Simon was wonderful with quick responses and providing great recommendations for our stay. The kitchen was perfect for having a private chef come in to cook one night. We would for sure recommend Surf Song and hope to return in the future.

Buyer Beware
Property was advertised to have air conditioning, it did not. One of the two main bathroom showers was actually outside, path to beach is not passable for anyone under the age of 12 and dangerous for adults as well. We were charged for items that were broken when we arrived, including the bed in guestroom and toaster. I would never recommend this house, Owner kept part of deposit for ridiculous reasons.

Quiet retreat on the North Shore with plenty of room for everyone
My family, and my friends family had the privilege of staying in this home between March 16th and March 24, 2018. Although the weather was a challenge that week, we could not have been more comfortable than we were at Surf Song. One or 2 small issues arose, and Simon could not have been more responsive and helpful in addressing these. It was so nice to enjoy the large private lanai (from which we spotted many whales) and the double washer/dryer setup in the garage. The beds were among the most comfortable we have ever slept on and the bathrooms were especially luxurious. We all enjoyed the games and equipment provided in the home/garage. Despite the relentless rain, we all managed to have a great week at Surf Song! Of note, the trail down to the Sealodge beach was definitely for what we would consider "advanced" hikers. This group with two 7 year olds had to turn back because the last leg of the hike over the boulders was pretty treacherous. We were much happier at nearby Anini Beach.

The view makes it
We stayed at Surf Song for 1 week in July 2023. 7 adults and 3 kids age 14,11, and 6. Code we were given to enter front door didn’t work- we had to call and leave msg for property manager. They called back about 25 min later and gave us a new code. While we were waiting for the code one of us walked around to the back of the property and found the back slider was unlocked- upon further inspection it does not have a functioning lock so it remained unlocked during our stay. Door handle of door to outside shower was broken and we requested it be fixed. They sent a repair person on our second day. Well stocked with beach towels, toilet paper, kitchen utensils/appliances. We requested directions to beach from property management but they never responded despite multiple requests. We finally found online- Sea Lodge Beach via Sea Lodge condos trailhead. The view was unbelievable, and we spent much of our time outside. Bedroom ACs were a must for July, very nice to have. One washing machine is finicky but one of us had the magic touch to get it started each time.

For this much money*
Pros. Spectacular views, spacious home for a family of 8…on the deck and inside as well. Great location, very comfortable furniture and bedding. Perfect for family dinners inside and out. Ample parking for multiple cars. Cons… realizing inflation and demand pushed up rental prices, this was an expensive trip for our family. So we expected a bit more. We cook a lot…. So we were impacted by issues that could be easily remedied: New dishwasher: It’s very fussy and dated. New washer dryers: same… and one set seemed inoperable. Ice maker: perhaps the last guest was a big user of ice… but the ice maker couldn’t make ice for several days. Sprinkler system: ran all the time for hours BBQ. Starter didn’t work…needed a flame, and the one provided was used up. Grill is so old, I had to take grills off to get the flame to catch. It’s on a timer as well… which makes sense for a rental .. To be sure, for a family who ate out frequently, these would not be big issues. Would we come back yes… But for this price it be proper to service this lovely home a bit more often.

It’s all about the View
Walk in and be prepared to be awestruck by the million dollar view. With just a hint of the neighbor to the left, it is essentially a private outdoor space. With the living room doors completely open it becomes a vast indoor outdoor environment. (You do need to use the screens for flying insects.) The master to the right has the better bathroom but the one to the left has the outside bath. The en suite bathrooms were great for each family. The kitchen met all needs and Foodland was conveniently nearby. A prior review talked about updating the furniture and this had apparently been done by our visit. However the hammock pictured was only the frame and we were advised there was no hammock. We were provided with a YouTube video on how to get to the bay below. Ask for it and watch it to determine if the hike is worth your effort. We did private massages on the deck which was a perfect location. Yoga is great out there too. The hot tub was large and relaxing day and night. We were here for a wedding and if everyone has a car, parking can get tight. There is no on street parking in the community. The living room gets a bit dark at night as there is no overhead lighting so evening activities gravitated to the large dining room table. We were happy with our choice of stay and its contribution to our wedding memories.

Beautiful home, wonderful views, great owner!
We stayed at Surf Song the last 10 days in July. At the outset of our stay our host made sure to mention that he was a new owner and if there were any issues whatsoever, to mention them and he would personally attend to them. His intent was to make sure that the expectations of our stay “were exceeded in every way” – he certainly delivered. The property is beautiful and we found the location to be ideal. We spent most of our time on the island hiking and beaching on the north shore and the east shore of the island. Princeville is centrally located and easily accessible to both. The home was well stocked with just about everything we needed for the beach including: towels, a cooler, an umbrella, chairs, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, 2 surfboards, and even a couple wetsuits. We used the bikes to explore the neighborhood and for short trips to the grocery store. The new ping pong table was used for family tournaments in the evening and we used the new hot tub to relax after our hikes. A NanaWall (bi-fold glass panel wall) was recently installed that extends the entire length of the living room. When open, the living room becomes part of the deck overlooking the Pacific. It was an absolutely beautiful setting for our family activities. The home was in the final stages of renovation during our stay and there were workers there occasionally but they were discrete and usually only there when we were away. Simon, the owner, kept us well informed and went out of his way to make sure that their schedule worked around ours. We’re looking forward to seeing the completed renovation during our next trip to Kauai. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Paradise
We were a group of 4 couples here to celebrate a vow renewal ceremony. From the very first contact, the owner, Simon was exceptionally responsive and cooperative. We have rented properties around the globe, and he was the best owner ever. Readily available via cell phone at any time, answered emails promptly. The house was all we had hoped and more. At the end of a cul-de-sac on a quiet residential road. Lots of room in the driveway for 3 vehicles. The views on the website are spot on. What you don't see are the sunrises, sunsets and the sounds of the waves through the bedroom sliders at night. We never needed air conditioning. Each couple had a private bedroom and bathroom. Hopefully, the clothes storage problems in 2 of the bedrooms will be solved soon. In addition, the common areas were beyond compare. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could imagine. The pantry had some basics, which we added to. We cooked or grilled or ate leftovers 9 of 11 nights. Every morning we had coffee and then breakfast on the lanai. "Ricky and Lucy", birds, visited us every day. We saw a whale once, and sea turtles in the beach below. Wifi in the house was perfect, no complaints. We had occasion to call the property manager once, and he was spot on with his service. We watched a baby albatross grow in the yard next door; quite a sight. A couple of recommendations: horseback riding at Silver Falls, close by on the north shore. Also toured a botanical garden on the north shore, toured the coffee plantation on the west side, and jumped from an airplane! The house has lots of guidebooks to suggest what you want to do. In summary, a wonderful vacation, in a spectacular house, with an accommodating owner. Highly recommend

Beautiful, Spacious Accommodations with Amazing Coastal Views
This beautiful home was perfect for our party of 8, our 3 adult children and their spouses. Although we enjoyed the vast majority of time together on the gorgeous patio, there was plenty of lovely indoor space to lounge in as well. A/C in the bedrooms was a nice touch although we seldom needed it. The ocean breezes (and sounds of pounding surf) are heavenly. The home is perfectly situated near Hanalei and the town of Princeville, so easy access to so much! All in all, a perfect vacation!

Absolutely beautiful!
What a beautiful location and house to spend time in! The beauty of the ocean, the sunrises and sunsets are amazing from this over the top wonderful home. You have to believe all the things people have written about this home and then think ,”self, add 100% more!” While staying here,don’t miss bathing under the stars or showering in the afternoon sun in the beautiful outdoor bathroom! Or, walking out of another master bedroom on to your lanai hammock to just lie there and watch the clouds pass by. From the endless supply of seasonings in the kitchen to the bicycles, water shoes, boogie boards and surf boards…this house just kept giving! Mahalo Surf Song!!!

Great Ocean Front Home
The deck and view were amazing. House was well stocked- kitchen and bath basics, more than listing let on, which was helpful. 10 minute walk (ask the locals for the path) to beach right below the house. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Communication with management was a bit slow. I asked about a fan that wasn't working after two days of being in the house and they wrote back about check in time. Fan never got fixed and we were there 8 days. Bedrooms do have A/C, which was also nice and plenty of doors and windows to open. Overall, great place and would come back.

The house was very clean and exactly as described! Very comfortable for 8 adults & well equipped with beach gear and bikes! Princeville and north shore activities just a few minutes away by car. Sea Lodge beach below, with a small waterfall off to the right of the beach path was a pleasant discovery. Enjoyed spotting whales in the late afternoon! The View is amazing!
