My wife and I stayed here for three nites in Feb, 2013. Unfortunately, the "studio" unit assigned us was very shabby and poorly equipped.Doubt the owner did any renovating since originally built. The floor had actually sunk an inch or two below the lanai sliders. The furnishings looked like they came from a yard sale...tired, and cheap...., no chair, no... More

From the very modest or sparsely appointed accommodation to a luxurious 5-star hotel, it's the people running the establishment that leave an indelible impression on a traveller. The staff of Hanalei Bay Resort truly convey the aloha of the island. The current renovation didn't bother us at all because even the construction workers were pleasant and jovial. Sure, the staff...

We recently stayed here for a week. Oceanfront Realty manages them. Beds are not good, twin beds in loft are horrible. Not up to standard. Should read 4 adults and 2 children. Twin bed mattresses are like something you would put in a toddler bed. Initially had good contact, even asked very specifically abt beds.. Was informed they were up... More

Condo 9123 at Hanalei Bay Resort really helped make our vacation perfect. It is a ground floor unit with a beautiful view of Hanalei Bay and the surrounding mountains. My husband and I spend time in our accomodations wherever they are, so we were particularly delighted to be able to take our breakfast, lunch and dinner on the lanai just... More

As the price was so reasonable, we were prepared for disappointment. We were pleasantly proven wrong. Friendly service. Free, easy parking. Well-equipped room (sink, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher) with amazing views of the jungle (who needs the ocean?) and two lanais from which to enjoy it. The walk to the pool is breathtaking with the mountains in the background. The pool... More

We stayed in HBR 5202 for 7 nights in April 2013. Amazing views, very peaceful, and beautiful grounds. The location was great, and the condo was equipped with everything we needed. The salt water pool with waterfalls was very nice. Chuck the owner is quick to answer your emails and is easy to work with. Highly recommend!.

We own a two-week time share here every other year, but I was able to make this reservation two years ago for an additional ten weeks at a reduced rate. It was wonderful to be able to spend most of the "winter" on Kauai instead of my cold climate at home. The resort has a million-dollar view and is beautifully... More

The Hanalei Bay Resort is an older place but has many benefits and is in a great location. The interior is older and needs updating but it is very clean. During the month of April and May they are renovating the clubhouse, lobby and restaurant since they had a fire here last year, no access to these sections of the... More

Rented through Aloha Condos. Everything explained on site, room just like they show. Shared beach with Princeville, but not crowded - good snorkelling. Central for North Shore sites. Tennis courts, pool, hot tub great. Use the Cabana to grill while watching the sunset. It's Kauai so early to bed 'cause the roosters will be up at 5 am (anywhere on... More
