The North Shore of Kauai is arguably the most beautiful on the island.
It's here that you'll see towering, verdant cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and beautiful Hanalei Bay, which is actually not one beach, but four.
Some of the most luxurious Kauai lodging is in Princeville, and there are plenty of vacation rentals between Princeville and Ke'e Beach, where the road ends.
The spectacular Napali Coast starts here, so don't leave without exploring it by catamaran, kayak, or zodiac.
There are good swimming beaches all along the North Shore, but not in winter, when high surf makes them dangerous even for experienced swimmers.
The towns of Hanalei and Princeville have good shopping and lots of places to eat - from white-linen restaurants to shave ice joints.
For years, the best known hotel in Princeville was the Princeville Resort, which closed in 2008.
It reopened in the fall of 2009 as the St.
Regis Resort Princeville following a $100 million makeover.
It is now the most luxurious Kauai resort with unforgettable views of Hanalei Bay, and the mountain known as Bali Hai.
There are two-world class golf courses available for guests to play, and the rooms have amenities like 42" plasma TVs, high-speed Internet access, and sitting areas for relaxing.
Butler service is provided to guests staying in suites.
If you prefer a vacation rental, the Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas are really nice.
Built in 2008, they have gourmet kitchens, in-unit washers and dryers, and private lanais.
With three swimming pools and a kids' program, this is an especially good choice for families.
There's a 24-hour fitness center and several spas.
And you can earn or redeem Starwood points here.
One of the best places on Kauai to get away from it all is the Hanalei Colony Resort, This 48-unit resort has no TVs and no phones in the rooms.
Located on a pretty, sandy beach, it's steps away from a day spa and a good Mediterranean restaurant.
The location is close to everything, and it provides great value for money.
