Only rarely in life does something exceed expectations, especially when those expectations were very high to begin with. Condo 4323 was one of those rare cases--something truly "marvelous". Everything about this jewel-- its location, view, and interior decorations-- exceeded our hopes for a home away from home. We could only marvel at what we saw. Moreover, every request was not only met with warmth and kindness, but with a willingness to make it happen if possible-- it was like working with kind relatives. Also something to marvel at. My wife and I had a wonderful vacation-- my wife says among the very best ever-- and I know that Condo 4323 played the major role in the story.
Thanks so much for contributing so much to making our vacation "marvelous".

My wife and I stayed at Hanalei Bay 4323 during our honeymoon. The condo was beautiful. The view was unmatched. I can't imagine staying anywhere nicer for the price. The grounds that the resort, and the resort staff in general were excellent. Everything was very well kept, and the pool and hot tub were never particularly crowded. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend renting this unit, or staying at this resort to our friends.

This was an amazing condo. It is much more impressive in person than the pictures on the website. When you walk in , you are awe struck by the beautiful view of Hanelai Bay. The condo has a bar high table with 4 comfy bar stools on the lanai. We would sip our morning coffee, looking out at Hanelai Bay. One minute their was a light rain, and the next minute the sun was out and we were treated to a beautiful rainbow.
This condo is totally updated I loved the beautiful granite kitchen with every convenience We stopped at Cosco, by the airport in Lihue {across from the mall} and stocked up on good wine, fish and steaks. We enjoyed grilling most nights and catching the sunsets as we ate dinner on the lanai. The pools were nice we enjoyed the circular pool, {very private} and at the large pool you could get grilled burgers from 11-2.We loved Hanelai Dolphin and one day picked up ahi and sushi to take back and enjoy on our lanai at sunset. Postcards and Mediteranean Gourmet are also good choices for dining out. We had a fun Saturday morning going to the farmers market in Hanelai {we loved Sal's salsa}
.Their are great beaches, you can walk down to the beach at the resort,{if you are lugging alot beach cairs boogy boards, call for a tram to take you down to the beach, and you can call them to pick you up[ this beach is shared by the St Regis} The St Regis has a luau on Thursday nights and we enjoyed having a drink listening to great jazz and enjoying their spectacular view {that's on Sunday at 4} We did zip-lining at princeville ranch and that was a fun adventure. We can't wait to get back to this beautiful resort.

We stayed at HBR for our 20th anniversary after having been there for our honeymoon. The view from this unit was everything we remembered it to be. You feel like you are in heaven when you wake up in the morning and see the beautiful mountains, waterfalls and rainbows. This condo was very comfortably furnished and had everything we needed. The beach was beautiful and with great swimming and good snorkeling. The staff at the resort was very helpful. We hope to get back a lot sooner than 20 years!

This complex is great and the unit is even better! Great view from balconey and very spacious. The unit was very clean and comfortable. And the master bed is so comfortable.
The pool is very nice. Large and has a nice tropical feel. The water is wonderful. Short walk to St. Regis where you can watch an amazing sunset. Best view on the north shore!
No downfalls for the unit.It is perfect. The only problems I could see would be for people who are elderly. The resort is very hilly and hard to walk. Also, if you want immediate beach access it is a little bit of a walk. We enjoyed the walk to the beach, there is some great scenery. Also, the hilly walking didn't bother us as we are active.
I wouldn't let it defer you from staying here even if you don't like walking. They have people with golf carts that will take you anywhere you want to go. If you buy groceries you can call them and they will meet you at your car, help you load the groceries, drive to your unit, and help you carry them up.
This place was great. Loved the unit, would most definately stay here again! I miss it already!!!

This condo blew away our expectations. We absolutely loved it. It was spotless and everything was brand new. The entire place was well decorated and the lanai was beautiful... we spent hours on it every day! The owners left a great supply of beach supplies and we made good use of the laundry and dishwasher. It was perfect and we hope to make it back!

Unit 4323 has a wonderful view. The funishings are of exceelent quality and aesthetics. The unit was well-stocked with everything I needed. The Tempurpedic King mattress in the master bedroom was comfortalbe, but was uneven with a bit of a depression--as though one side had been slept in for a long time. Probably time for a new mattress. Overall, a great stay.

Unit 4323 was beautiful; what a view! The unit is spacious and comfortable. It was tastefully furnished, and thoroughly appointed. The recently remodeled kitchen has everything you could possibly need, and more. The beach equipment was appreciated, as was the welcome tote bag. The tempurpedic bed in the main room is a luxury, especially when combined with the song birds and the view of the bay and mountains at sunrise. It is obvious that a lot of thoughtfulness and care was put into the accomodations. The location in the resort is great, not too far to walk to the car, and close to the main pool. I would gladly stay here again and again. The only downside to staying on the north side of the island is that it takes a long time to drive to the other side. Kristen was a pleasure to work with, and extremely helpful and professional. Thank you for allowing us a magical stay! We hope to be back soon.

My wife and I were very impressed with this well equipped condo with a great view of Hanalei Bay. The sunsets were incredible. The condo was very clean and very well equipped. (even a snorkel).
The gift basket from Aloha was also very thoughtful and the coffee was enjoyed.
It was also nice getting out of a Hotel and using the condo to make our food for a change.
It was pretty quiet when we were there during the low season in October, but that suited us just fine. The weather was hot and sunny. The relaxed atmosphere was just what we needed to enjoy our stay in this beautiful area of Hawaii.
Thank-you for the wonderful time. We would recommend this condo to our family and friends.

We found Hanalei Bay Resort by using the internet. We hooked up with Joan Bettencourt. A wonderful person. We tried to book with her, but her condo was booked and she referred us to Kristen Greene. Doing business with Kristen was a dream. She is very dedicated to making sure that you are happy and even suprised us with a welcome gift. Her photo gallery of 4323 is outstanding. The condo is everything you need and much, much more. Everyone at Hanalei Bay Resort were very friendly and nice. We highly recommend this condo and using Kristen's help to book it. We can hardly wait to return to this paradise....

We just spend 5 wonderfull days and nights at your Condo 4323. This Condo is beautifully furnished and is in excellent conditions. Many thanks to the owners of this property!
The kitchen is equipped with all you need - except a tea pot is missing - apparently tea is not the preferred drink on the island.
We had stayed on Oahu, Hawaii, Maui and at last in Kauai. In total we were on the islands for almost 3 weeks - the stay at you place was the top. We would have liked to stay longer, but our return flights were booked, as was the Condo (people who know apparently recommend this Condo, which we are also doing to friends of us who want to come later this year.)
the arrangements and booking through Mrs. Kirsten Greene and the immediate support when we had arrived has our great appreciation.
All in all, we had a great time at your place, thanks again.

Hanalei Bay resort afforded us great views, a nice place to stay and wonderful time. The pool is great and the low-key pace was a plus. None of the stuffiness of the P'ville, but also don't expect luxury bathrooms, etc. The unit was attractively furnished, with a decent kitchen, beach toys, and great teak lanai chairs. HBR/Bali Hai Restaurant being closed during our stay and the prohibition on getting drinks by the pool were our only complaints. Had an almost 2 year old with us who loved the pool, the deck, etc. We would definitely consider this again for another Princeville trip.

We stayed at Hanalei Bay Resort condo #4323 (Oct 2008) after being upgraded (moved) from a smaller lock off room due to being informed that both the restaurant and lounge had been closed.This was our honeymoon after being married days previous at the Grand Hyatt Kauai south shore which we stayed for the week.
Let me start by saying we are not condo people or had not considered being the type before our stay. We arrived at night and were amazed at the quality and decor of the condo and touched by a welcome basket filled with goodies and wine. In the morning I opened the shades and literally gasped at the most breathtaking view I had ever seen. The picture from the website does not do it justice, the view is AMAZING. The condo owners thought of everything from snorkel gear to candles every detail they included was so nice. We had a wonderful honeymoon and fell in love with the north shore! When you envision Hawaii this is it!!!
We did have some issues with the dishwasher and drain in the bath but the condo was getting an overhaul the day after we left.
Advice: 1. Have your breakfast and happy hour at sunset on the lanai. 2. Go to the fish market and grill for dinner 3. Zip line or hike. 4. Postcards Restaurant for a lovely meal. and 5. R E L A X

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at HBR in #4323.
The owners have put much effort and care into their condo.; it is
beautifully decorated, spacious, comfortable, well equipped, well
maintained and very clean.
We enjoy cooking, and the kitchen had everything we needed (and
more) to prepare meals. The BBQ centre was very convenient to the
condo. Eating on the lanai was wonderful with the incredible views.
The beautiful lanai furniture was one of the many highlights of this
condo, with raised table/chairs to maximize the view, and comfy
lounge chairs. The in-unit washer/dryer was nice to have, although
for those renting a studio unit, there is a laundry facility just a few
steps from this building. The king size bed was very comfortable.
Both the living room and bedroom had a full wall of windows/patio
doors to take in the magnificent views of the bay and Bali Hai. In all
of our travels I don't think I've stayed anywhere with a view as
beautiful as this!
The owners have thought of just about everything for guests'
enjoyment, with boogie boards, beach mats, umbrellas, cooler, etc.
The resort itself is very nice ... beautiful landscaping/gardens,
impressive & large free form pool with waterfalls, and nice lobby
where the Happy Talk Lounge is.
There are 8 tennis courts spread out throughout the resort.
The walk to the beach down the paved path takes about 5 minutes
.... it's a bit of a workout coming up, but we liked the exercise, and
for those who want a ride, there is a call-box at the bottom to call
for a shuttle to the top.
Can't wait to go back!

We spent an amazing week at the Hanalei Bay Resort condo 4323 in Princeville, HI. The condo was clean and very tastefully decorated. The views from both the main lanai and the master bedroom lanai were breathtaking. Having a full kitchen was so nice; we bought fresh produce at the farmer's market a short distance from the condo, as well as fresh fish from the two local fish markets. We enjoyed many meals out on the lanai. Not only did we have a gorgeous view
of the Hanalei Bay but also a view of Bali Hi and the waterfalls coming down from the mountain. We also enjoyed the short drive to several beautiful beaches. Our only disappointment was the fact that the Bali Hi Restaurant and Tiki Lounge were both closed for remodeling at the time of our stay. We would stay at the condo again if these amenities were available.
