About This Property

A Spectacular Ocean Bluff Estate on Kauaʻi’s North Shore

Welcome to Honu Awa, an extraordinary private estate perched atop a dramatic oceanfront bluff in Princeville on Kauaʻi’s renowned North Shore. Offering approximately 3,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this refined four-bedroom residence captures breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, vibrant Hawaiian sunsets, and the soothing rhythm of rolling surf. With elegant interiors, expansive lanais, and a tranquil lagoon-style pool surrounded by lush tropical gardens, Honu Awa offers an exceptional blend of privacy, comfort, and island luxury.

Designed to embrace the beauty of its spectacular setting, the home seamlessly blends sophisticated indoor living with the natural splendor of Kauaʻi. Floor-to-ceiling windows, soaring ceilings, and open gathering spaces invite cooling trade winds and endless ocean views into nearly every room, creating an atmosphere that is both luxurious and deeply relaxing.

Living Spaces

The expansive great room serves as the heart of the home, where dramatic vaulted ceilings and walls of glass frame uninterrupted coastline vistas. Filled with natural light, the space is beautifully furnished with elegant yet comfortable décor, creating the perfect setting for gathering with family and friends.

A grand piano adds a refined touch, while multiple seating areas provide inviting spaces to unwind, enjoy conversation, or simply admire the ever-changing ocean views. The adjoining dining area overlooks the Pacific, transforming every meal into a memorable island experience.

This house is unbelievably awesome. We spent a week here and were so sad to leave. The views and location were as good as anywhere on the planet. The house is very nice, high quality everything. Cannot say enough things about this. I would not go to Kauai again and stay anywhere except here.

The Princeville area is spectacular and Honu Awa’s location is superb. The views of the Pacific Ocean from every window on the back of the house are just breathtaking. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with high end cooking gear and appliances. Each of the 4 bedrooms had a bathroom. Plenty of space for all! Common living area with large screen TV was also a hit. Fantastic walking paths in neighborhood. Access to tremendous beaches nearby. Helpful and friendly property manager (Yen)! Highly recommend this property!

Our group of 8 (my husband and I, our four adult children, one son's girlfriend and one daughter´s boyfriend) spent ten nights at Honu Awa. This was our third visit to Kauai and Honu Awa was by far the most beautiful house we ever rented on the island. The views are spectacular and we loved the modern interior. Everything was spotless clean! The house has a great size for a group of 8 and is very well equipped. We didn't miss anything. Yen was by far the best host we ever had - and we have rented plenty of houses before. She would respond to my questions within minutes. One night we feared that we would run out of propane for the barbecue, so I texted Yen and asked if there was a spare propane bottle on the property. There wasn't - BUT - within MINUTES Yen had organized that Steve (her maintenance man) brought a spare one. There is absolutely NOTHING to complain about Honu Awa or Yen. We had the greatest vacation and would love to come back.

Our family of 7 spent our best vacation ever in this beautiful home. It had everything we needed for our week long stay. The views for amazing & the pool was an added bonus for when we came home at night. Yen was super sweet & informative with everything we needed to know about our stay. Highly recommend this vacation home.
