10/10. Clean, comfy bed. Patio with gorgeous views. We slept with the screen across the patio each night to fall asleep to the distant waves crashing. Location is excellent. 10 min drive to Hanalei with lots of good restaurants and shops (try Hanalei Bread co for breakfast, AMA ramen for stunning dinner location and bar acids for excellent food!) 5 mins to close by shopping centre with other excellent restaurants (try B’s kitchen)

We enjoyed our first stay at HBR in Jeff’s condo (located in Heliconia-15). Jeff is a thoughtful host who has beautifully furnished this condo with comfortable furniture, old-Hawai’i inspired decor, and nice patio sets. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking our own meals. The king size bed was firm and supportive, and there were lots of pillows and blankets available. The pros of being in Heliconia-15 are: close to parking lot, main building, pools, and grilling station. This unit is also is a top-floor, corner unit with views of the Na Pali mountains. The view of the jungle from the lanais was stunning. Despite all this, the cons of this location would prevent us from staying in Heliconia-15 again. It is immediately behind the main building where a massive HVAC system provides a constant thrumming sound. The flurry of golf carts coming to/from the service area adjacent to the HVAC meant that noise was ongoing and reduced the privacy of this unit. Finally, a single ramp provides level-entry to Heliconia-15 and this unit is the first one, so everyone coming to/from this block walks past this unit. The thumping from foot falls are audible in the bedroom while trying to sleep. We are still giving 5 stars because this is not within Jeff’s control, and every block in HBR has pros and cons - you just have to find what’s right for your family. Jeff is an amazing host and we would gladly stay with him again in another one of his properties. Mahalo!

Great communication from the host and an easy check-in. Priceless, practically unobstructed view of the mountains from back lanai! 100% recommend for north shore stays.

Condo was clean and comfy with everything we needed for our stay. It was an easy walk to the beach. Convenient having the happy talk lounge on site and access to the bars/restaurants at 1 Hanalei within walking distance. The pool on site isn’t heated (the ocean is warmer) but that was fine for us.

When we arrived and saw the view from every sliding door it was breathtaking. What a great place and location to stay. It was decorated in a very zen way and had everything we needed for a three day stop before two more travel destinations. I would stay again and again as I cannot stop thinking about how beautiful everything was. Next time, my stay will definitely be longer at this location.

We had a wonderful stay at HBR. It was nice to have a mini fridge with a top freezer area and a blender in the condo. The unit itself was not very clean (many many dead bugs all over the windows and ground), and dirty dishes when we arrived, but otherwise nice stay with great amenities and responsive hosts.

We absolutely loved this place for its pristine location and gorgeous ocean/mountain views! The place itself is wonderfully decorated with art representing the local culture/island. It’s quiet, roomy, comfortable and peaceful (something we were looking for in this vacation). We will come back next Dic and hope we can get the exact same place! There are a few things that we think would make a stay even better: the mattress should be replaced. The bed is extremely high, not ideal for shorter people like my wife. The tub urgently needs an anti-slip mat because it gets super slippery in there and I almost had a bad fall. Other than that: what an incredible spot! We had a great time and we devoted a whole day to spend it in this place just to enjoy the stunning views…and the mesmerizing sound of rain. So lovely! Thank you! José and Maggie.

This place exceeded my expectations. The listing online was great, but the view and the property is even better is person. It was clean, the check in process was easy, had everything we needed, very comfortable bed & was conveniently located. The property and pool were stunning, very convenient having 2 restaurants on property if you don’t feeling like going into town (the pizza restaurant is 10/10). Can’t recommend this place enough, will definitely be staying here if we go back!

Had a great stay but didn't do much at the resort as we were busy exploring the island. Would like to come back and spend some time relaxing as it really is a beautiful and scenic place! Communication from Dave was perfect and led to an easy and uneventful process. Thank you!

The decor in the room was very quaint and warm, and the view of the Hanalei bay from the balcony is exceptional. The Hanalei Bay Resort is a beautiful and relaxing place. I would only add that the bathtub and shower need to be remodeled. The room looks remodeled and is very comfortable but the tiles of walls in the shower are old and dirty. And so eas the tub. It's my only complaint.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Hanalei Bay Resort studio. We felt very safe and comfortable. The room had all the basic amenities we needed( fridge, microwave, coffee, silverware). The best part was waking up to the breathtaking views of Hanalei Bay. Thank you to the wonderful hosts that checked in to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Mahalo!

We stay at HBR every time we visit Kauai. This is our 4th time and we have stayed in a different rental each time at HBR. This one has been my favorite so far. It was beautifully decorated and the view was amazing. The washer and dryer came in handy because we have 3 under 3 so laundry is a daily necessity. The loft and beds were perfect for our kids. AC worked great. Fridge was really nice. The closet was also full of beach toys, boogie boards, coolers, chairs and umbrella. We did decide to move any items that could break away from our toddlers and rented a baby gate to close off the stairway up to the loft but that was about it. I would 100% come back to this rental with our kids.
Not really a con, but a recommendation - There is a broom but if the rental had a hand held vacuum that would have been icing on the cake.
The only "downside" to this rental is the building is the bottom of the resort so it's an uphill trek to the parking lot. It's not that far of a walk, and kind of nice to get your heart rate up BUT you can call the front desk for the golf carts to come pick you up. To that point, I definitely recommend tipping because the guys are great and will help load and unload the cart. HBR has never let us down. We talked to a couple who has been coming to Kauai for 21 years. They said outright that Hanalei Bay Resort is the best on the island and I would have to agree.

We were attending my brother’s funeral and paddle out, the location was quiet with Nene geese visiting us each morning as sort of a special blessing.

We arrived after dark, and were greeted warmly by the front desk staff. Shuttled to our condo which was nice because we had a lot of luggage. We slept well in the comfy beds, and woke up in the morning to see the most beautiful view of Hanalei Bay. I never wanted to leave our balcony! The property is fabulous. One drawback is they were doing maintenance on the grounds every day of our stay. All day long, it was noisy. We will definitely go back, but maybe at a time when there is not so much maintenance going on.

Pretty bummed with this listing overall and I wanted to check out early and find something that was less gross. The room was very dingy and dirty and smelled musty. The bathroom smelled like urine. The entire place needs a serious deep clean, general maintenance and replacement of things. There were no amenities like shampoo/soap or coffee and what we did find was jammed in a dirty closet with cleaning supplies. Just pretty cringey overall. I get the sense this property management runs hundreds of these units, make their money and doesn’t care to maintain or update them often. I would take your money elsewhere!

The place was so clean. The resort staff was very friendly and helpful. The host gifted us with snacks and a helpful resort map. The host also provided beach chairs and a body board to catch some waves. The view from the balcony is absolutely spectacular. We would gladly stay here again.
