View from the top! Whale watching from oceanfront top floor!

Welcome to Sealodge F9! This charming oceanfront apartment is a fantastic value in the sought-after Princeville community on Kauai’s north shore. You’ll love the incredible views—watch for whales from your lanai or enjoy the oceanfront scenery without even getting out of bed! A few things to note before you dive in:
• The top-floor location offers breathtaking, unobstructed ocean views. Please be aware that there are no elevators and you will need to use stairs to reach this third-floor condo.
• While Sealodge F9 has not seen recent updates, it's a clean and comfortable space, and provides a more budget friendly option for guests wanting a great oceanfront view.
• Like many places on Kauai, there is no air conditioning. However, the ceiling fans, floor fans, and refreshing trade winds usually keep things comfortable. If you’re not used to the heat or prefer AC, you may want to explore other options.

We hope you have a wonderful stay and enjoy the stunning views and cozy atmosphere of Sealodge F9! Private, top floor apartment with OCEAN FRONT views at Sealodge Kauai! Sealodge F9 is the only top floor condo in the building! Perfect for your honeymoon or other romantic getaway, it offers privacy, panoramic and unobstructed oceanfront views, and welcoming comfort inside, all at affordable rates. This one bedroom/one bathroom gem shares no common walls, so all you hear is the surf. From your private lanai you can view the changing colors of ocean and sky at both sunrise and sunset.

In the living room, you'll find comfortable furnishings and a Hawaiian punee (twin size day bed in the alcove of the picture window). You can use the punee if you need additional sleeping space for a child, or to relax at nap time as you watch for dolphins or whales while the tradewinds play softly over you. There's a dining area with seating for 4, full kitchen, and washer and dryer. There are yet more oceanfront views from the bedroom, with its comfortable queen bed and adjacent full bathroom. In the bathroom, the tub/shower and commode area are private, while the vanity area with sink and mirror remain open to the bedroom, allowing two people to get ready for the day simultaneously. Sleeps 3. Additional amenities include smart TV with DVD player, phone with free local calling, free WiFi. The complex includes an oceanfront swimming pool, and a barbecue area (grills are charcoal and BYOB - bring your own briquettes).

Our Kauai vacation rentals at Sealodge are located at the end of a small quiet side road, with no through traffic, that ends at a dramatic ocean bluff. These Princeville condos face the ocean on their lanai side. A short, rather strenuous, hike brings you to the secluded Sealodge Beach. Shopping and dining are conveniently close, with the Princeville shopping center just a mile and a half away. The charming town of Hanalei, and the world famous Hanalei beaches, are a brief ten minute drive. Our Princeville vacation rentals at Sealodge are comfortable, quiet, and island casual.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned.

This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down stairs. There are no elevators.

Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

Calm & relaxing
We enjoyed every morning out on the balcony watching the sunrise & then sunset every night. A couple times we saw dolphins You can see a huge waterfall on the mountain out the kitchen window Yes it is warm without AC but all the windows open & fans going it was fine. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was perfect!

F9
I’ll begin by saying we love Sealodge and that area. F9 unit has a spectacular view. We saw whales almost every day and fabulous birds. It really is a wonderful place. Unfortunately, after a few days( we rented F9 for 2 weeks) you begin to notice things. The unit really needs some new paint and some TLC. The plumbing fixtures worried me every time I went to have a shower or brush my teeth. The beds are soft. The screens have holes. The washer and dryer are sort of in the dining room with you. But then there’s the view! I waffled back and forth between loving the place and being a bit disappointed. I’d definitely rent in the Sealodge complex again, but I do not think I would ever rent F9 again.

Adequate stay
Great spot if you don’t plan to spend too much time indoors. Third floor feels private with a great view. Not fun trudging up and down with luggage and groceries, but overall appreciate the privacy of the top floor. The furniture and beds are not comfortable. I didn’t sleep well any of the nights. It would be worth investigating in good quality mattresses, linens and pillows. My goal for this vacation was to rest and I didn’t get to do that due to the uncomfortable bed/furniture. It also would have been nice to be able open the heavy window covering for the kitchen window for light and air. The carpet felt clean. Dresser and closet were adequate for storage. There was a cockroach in the dryer and one that showed up in the living room. Lastly, it would be worth investing in better kitchen supplies. Knives were all dull and we had to get creative when try to bake in the oven. Having basic spices would also make the place a bit more convenient since prices for groceries are so expensive. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the proximity to a semi private beach and trail. Fir the most part, neighbors were quiet. Pool was great! The renovation made a huge difference.

Great location. Enjoyed the ocean views and sounds. Great spot for two. Beach chairs and umbrella were a great touch. Only issue we had was with a fan in the freezer making noise. The management was very responsive in getting it fixed the next day. When we come back, we’ll definitely consider coming here again.

Beautiful ocean view condo in prime location
We loved this comfortable condo on the sea. The best part were the great views from every room. High class furniture which was still in good condition reminded me of my youth. You have complete privacy. It's like having your own home. It was unfortunate that the pool was out of service but we enjoyed many of the beaches in the area such as Tunnels Beach and Anini Beach. It rained a lot while we were there but we were fortunate to have a comfortable place to hang out. We loved the deck watching the birds and the whales. The vegetation is breathtaking! All in all a once in a lifetime experience! Mahalo!

F9 Sealodge
The check in process was seamless. The listing accurately reflects the actual unit. Outstanding views from the top floor windows and balcony. There is no ac but within a few minutes of opening the windows the unit cools off quickly. Cute little lizards sometimes find their way into the unit but is a fun memory catching them and bring them back outside. The unit is a little dated but very very clean.
