Once a sugar plantation, today Princeville is a master-planned resort community of luxury hotels, high-end custom homes, luxury condos and timeshares. This North Shore destination resort is located on a coastal bluff overlooking the scenic town of Hanalei and the sprawling natural Anini reef. A gated residential community featuring amenities like World Class Golf, tennis courts, bike and jogging path, health club and day spa attract enthusiasts of an active lifestyle. Many consider Princeville’s “Prince Course” to be some of the best golf in Hawaii.
Princeville receives about 85 inches of rain per year, making it a very lush, green paradise year round, feeding the neighboring mountains’ spectacular waterfalls and creating stunning rainbows over this elite plateau. One of the infamous landmarks in Princeville is the Queen’s Bath, a series of suspended tide pools and lava tubes that in the summer months are home to sea turtles, tropical fish and calm seas. Access to the area is within a residential neighborhood and requires care and skill to traverse the steep trail that leads to it. For safety reasons visits to the area during the winter months are not recommended.

Princeville Shopping Center offers a grocery store, local boutiques and restaurants with an adjacent public library, community center, playground and park facility. While access to the ocean and beach areas is limited and treacherous, Princeville is the perfect place to observe the North Shore’s huge winter surf from the safe lookouts located near the Princeville Hotel. The ideal place to enjoy a Sunday Brunch with inspiring views, the Princeville Hotel is perched on a cliff overlooking Hanalei Bay and Bali Hai.
