Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was a good size and loved waking up to look out the doors to that view. The resort was lovely and we experienced great customer service! The room smelled like cooking oil pretty badly for the first day and the bathroom is very dark and dated. Everything else was great!

Location and views were stunning! Would definitely stay at Hanalei Bay Resort again however this specific condo needed some TLC. Condo had all basic necessities but was pretty dirty when we arrived (splatter on a couple walls in bedroom and near garbage), found a whole orange under the bed and shower and bath mats needed some deep cleaning (did not appear to be cleaned at all). Also only two rolls of toilet paper for 8 days, ended up buying our own as room is not serviced by housekeeping. Resort had issues with wifi so no wifi in our room 7 of the 8 days of our stay which made it a little challenging to research and plan our days (unrelated to condo owner but considering you pay a hefty resort fee per day).

Great view and beautiful resort. You can take a shuttle down to the beach which is convenient. Apartment was a little dated and the AC didn't work, other than that we had a great stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the views from the balcony and all around the property. The resort itself is dated and needs some attention in several areas. The pool is dated, waterfalls not working, and a few other minor things that need attention. With that said, we would stay here again when we return to Kauai. You will not get views like this anywhere else. The waterfalls on the mountains are stunning and you cannot and watch them while sipping your coffee or Mai Tai. Our room was comfortable and offered everything we needed, mini kitchen, toaster, blender, washer, dryer, detergent, toiletries and a welcome gift basket. The decor is dated, but who cares! We were on the balcony or walking the property most of the day when on property. Mattress was comfortable.

I love the Hanalei Bay Resort, Studio 1205 had everything I wanted from a single room studio at the property.

Loved the resort and the North shore. Really a beautiful area of Kauai. The condo was clean & quiet. We mostly just used it as a home base for sleeping, and it was great for that. It was very nice having the a/c and the washer/dryer.

Beautiful Property. Rooms are a little bit dated. Be mindful of large hidden parking and resort fees not detailed in the bookings.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What you see in the pictures is what you get. Beautiful big patio with a breathtaking view! Inside living area is like the pictures as well. It is a little dated, but we were not expecting a newly renovated place. The location is perfect! 10 minute drive to town, right next to queens bath and an easy walk to the beach. The restaurant right next door was lovely. We enjoyed a nice dinner and drinks while watching the sunset. The reception staff was very welcoming. We would definitely stay here again. I have to say it again, that patio view - WOW! Pour yourself a cup of coffee in the morning and just sit outside and relax!

The Hanalei Bay Resort staff were very welcoming and helpful. The pictures of the room are accurate. 3 Stars for cleanliness, as the room needed a deep clean. The management company was immediately responsive. I'm still waiting (2 weeks after check-out) for my security deposit, which I think is a bit excessive. Hopefully I will be credited soon. All in all, a 4 of a stay - thanks!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at the Hanalei Bay Resorts. This resort has been one of my favorites for many years: however, unit does need updating including ensuring AC unit is properly working. The resort’s hot tub spa was out of order during our stay. The unit was clean and the bed was comfortable but glasses in the unit were a little sticky.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice (very wet) three days. The location was convenient and right-sized for our short three day stay. The use of the kitchen for preparation space is sorely lacking, and the supply of decent glassware inadequate. in unit washer/dryer set a great help. Lovely views, quiet and relaxing location.

Such a beautiful resort and we loved the view from our room. Beach chairs, cooler, and boogie boards are available for use. It was nice to have a washer and dryer in the unit and the bed was comfortable. It's a walk to the nice beach but you can have the golf cart drive you up the hill if you don't want to walk back. The only non ideal thing was being able to hear our neighbors when they were in their kitchen because the sound proofing there at the shared unit door is minimal. We could hear every word. We also would have loved more light at night. There are floor lamps with shades but after dark they don't provide much light. All in all, this was a lovely property and we enjoyed our stay.

Great location bummer the hot tub was broken- we booked the room based on the idea that there was hot tub. However we made the best of it- great time in the restaurant east to access all our places. Would stay there again!

Location is beautiful, great views, wonderful beach just a short walk. Pool and tennis courts In good condition. Property has pool bar shut down, food service opens at 3 and no food allowed at pool. Unit is very dated but view was lovely and we appreciated the in unit washer and dryer since we had been traveling for a week when we arrived. We arrived after posted check-in at 4:30 pm. Unit floor was soaking wet from being just mopped, there was accumulated wet debris and hair in corners by night stand tables. Disappointing but we rolled with it. Overall would recommend the unit for view and location. Only complaint is that the significant damage deposit was collected day of booking 8/13 for 10/23-26 stay and we didn’t receive damage deposit back until 11/9. Had to inquire a couple times before finally getting deposit returned.

The area and view are just as advertised. Absolutely amazing!

A bit tired. No restaurant. No pool bar. Noisy bathroom fan. Bed skirt needs replacing. Great location and view.

This is a lovely property and well appointed. The view was amazing and the location is great. The pool and beach are quite nice. We loved having the patio doors open, and first time visitors should be aware of the roosters crowing starting just before sunrise!!

This unit is old and it shows in everything. I could never cook a meal here, we had to make toast and coffee in bathroom due no counter space. You can’t even hang your clothes up.

This condo & the property are amazing! We spent so much of our time sitting on our balcony and watching helicopters, birds & chickens (of course). It’s also right next to the restaurant so you get some free live music most nights. It’s really quiet and right next to the parking lot for easy access. The beach is also fantastic! You are literally right on hanalei bay and can watch the surfers or walk down a short trail to be across the stream from the pier! Only negative is Princeville is a very ritzy, golf course, fancy resort area with not too many eating options nearby. You have to drive to almost everything and the HBR is at the very end of the road. Also not much else to walk to besides the beach and queens bath (very few restaurants/shops within walking distance). But if you want a quiet place with a beautiful view to relax, highly recommend!

This place is beautiful and next to the most scenic beach we saw. Kauai is stunning, and I would definitely come back to stay here!

Room was basic hotel style . Furniture dated . King bed was comfortable. Tiny kitchenette adequate . Included electric stove, microwave. , drip coffee maker. Provided cookies and candy. Shower was fair. Bathroom with ugly fluorescent lighting. Washer / dryer available in the closet was helpful to have. Provided 2 beach chairs, 2 boogie boards and a small beach cooler which were nice to use . Restaurant- lounge was decent with tasty glorified pub- grub and live music. Pool area was attractive but the pool itself cold and uninviting unless a hot day. Spa also attractive but quite small limited to 4 adults due to Covid concerns . Tennis courts available - did not use. Parking spaces outside buildings were plentiful. Resort itself is located in the middle of a community of single family homes up on the bluff. Need to drive to any beaches or shops in Princeville or Hanalei due to distance

My husband and I stayed at this gorgeous property on the north shore of Kauai and our minds were blown!!! We loved sitting on the balcony with a view of the napali coast and the town of hanalei and princeville were a blast to explore! The resort had excellent service and wonderful amenities, and the room had boogie boards, a coffee maker, and laundry for our convenience. We hope to be back!

We stayed two nights this year around a promo on the south shore of Kauai. In 2017 we stayed four nights and loved it so much we just had to come back at least a little while. The view in the morning when you sit on your lanai is just gorgeous. The rooster comes and makes his announcement of the morning which we love. The unit itself has a very comfortable bed, plenty of storage, a washer and dryer and great little kitchen. We went down to the beach one morning and had the best time snorkeling and then just pick up the courtesy phone and they pick you up, since the walk back up is very steep. We truly love this unit and resort it's not as "glitsey" as some others but the resort and unit are a great place to experience that feeling of Aloha.

The space was just perfect for two for a week on Kauai. Everything was clean and well kept. Much bigger than a regular hotel room. And the small kitchen was just enough for us to make breakfast in every morning to enjoy on the lanai with the most gorgeous view of the grounds, Nepali coast and toward Hanalei Bay. The location of the condo was very proximate to the pool and amenities which was also a nice bonus. It was great that the owner of the property left beach chairs, umbrellas, a rolling cooler, boogie boards for us to use. Great touch that we appreciated. The property was wonderful as well. We spent plenty of time at the pool, hot tub and sitting area to watch the sunset. We checked out quite a few of the neighbouring properties while we were there and the Hanalei Bay Resort was far superior. We really enjoyed our stay, would recommend this unit and property, and will definitely be back. Aloha!

I had a wonderful stay at Hanalei Bay Resort # 1205. The condo is in a great location with fantastic views of the bay and mountains in the distance. Happy Talk Lounge is maybe 50 feet away but not close enough to be a distraction. There is a steep trail that leads to the beach. It can be kind of treacherous in places but you can always have the concierge get you a ride. Overall a great, relaxing place to unwind and enjoy the tropical scenery.

Our stay at the resort was pleasant, and provided us with a wonderful North Shore location. Exploring the North Shore was convenient, and all the beaches and sights were very close at hand. Resort staff were friendly and extremely helpful, and ready to assist when needed. The unit met our needs well and the view of the water from the lanai added to our enjoyment, and stay.

Small studio with all the amenities one could possibly need for a stay in Princeville. Lovely balcony with a beautiful mountain (and partial ocean!) view, small kitchen with 2 burners and a mini fridge, nice spacious bathroom with a good shower, washer dryer, even beach chairs to borrow! The Hanalei Bay Resort in which it's located has a lovely pool, helpful front desk staff, and a tasty restaurant with a full bar. Beautiful beach just a short walk from your front door – I should note that it requires a going down and back up a fairly steep path, though it did seem like you could arrange a ride in a golf cart for those who couldn't make the trek or had little ones in tow. I would stay in this unit again in a heartbeat!

The condo location was amazing. Beautiful views of the mountains and close to the main lobby and pool areas. The condo was also pretty comfortable. Weven were also happy that there was a little kitchenette with stove. We did buy some dried food items, but there was no cupboard space to store them. We did discover that the shower wasn't cleaned well before we arrived. There some were brown smears on the walls, and the drain was clogged from the beginning. Tried to call the main desk, who said they would contact the property management, but no one ever came. We did find draino in the closet by the 3rd day of our stay there and it did work to clear the drain.

Loved the area and all there is to do. Lots of hiking. Limited on dining options if you want to walk. Condo was very nice with all required amenities. Went up to the St. Regis for breakfast one day which is extremely overpriced. The Regis is dated and sure would not recommend anyone staying there for the money. Condos like this one are phenomenaly better value.
