Thank you for staying in our condo. We are glad you enjoyed all our special efforts to provide everything to make your stay wonderful. Yes the views from the lanai of Hanalei Bay are incredible! <br />
Our carpet is a natural sisal, recently chosen to lend that tropical island feel. We provide wonderful & comfortable couches, divans and chaises for sitting, lounging, watching movies filmed on Kauai, or just gazing at the beautiful view.<br />
<br />
We hope you will stay again.<br />
Aloha,<br />

Awesome Stay in Condo at Hanalei Bay Resort
Overall rating:

We made reservations with Chuck to stay in one of the condos that were left online for the Christmas 2010 season. After being told by all other places that we needed at 7 night minimum, we finally came across this condo. Chuck was awesome. I did however have reservations about why this one was not booked even after looking at the great photos online. However, once we got to Hanalei Bay Resort and into the condo, wow, it was totally awesome!! We had two rooms, 7307 and 7308. It was large enough for our family of 6, had a great view of the Bay, clean, furniture was fantastic. There was even bookie boards, snorkeling gear, chairs, and even a foam ice chest. Our whole family was very very happy with the condo and the resort. We would definitly go back there in a heart beat and recommend the condo and Hanalei Bay Resort to everyone.

Positives: This condo is large, has a very nice view of Bali Hai and the sunset every night, has a kind of cottage/cabin feel.
Negatives: The one complaint about the staff, condo owner, or manager? (i'm not sure whose responsibility this would fall on) would be, we checked in early (which may have been part of the reason, but shouldn't have mattered) but our room definitely wasn't cleaned for a long time. If any they did the bare minimum. There was sand everywhere near the entrance, a dead 6" centipede behind the blinds, mirrors and windows had greasy hand and face marks, the balcony was definitely not swept, the netting above the bead had a lot of dust and dead bugs. We spent our entire first night there cleaning in order to feel comfortable staying there. So this definitely was not the good first impression we we're hoping for after staying in a beautiful new place in Maui the week prior.
I would recommend it but make sure it's been cleaned properly, and complain if not. We never did because we could easily just clean it to meet our standards in the same amount of time. Hopefully this changes for future renters of this condo.

We are so sorry, and apologize for the huge inconvenience, but only wish you had called to report the problem. Maid services always check a unit and do a cleaning when the unit has been empty for a period prior to the new booking. Since the guests had checked in early, the maids subsequently did not disturb the guests. <br />
<br />
Again, our apologies, and we have set safeguards in order to prevent this occurrence in the future.<br />
<br />
Aloha,<br />

Another perfect stay at Hanalei Bay!

This is our second year renting this condo at Hanalei Bay Resort, and it was even better than we had remembered! You have the best view of Hanalei Bay and a Bali Hai sunset on the property! The condo itself is impeccably clean and tastefully decorated, with enough tables and chairs on the balcony for the whole family to enjoy. Located right next to the peaceful round pool and the updated outdoor kitchen and grill area--perfect for an evening dip and BBQ (pick up the fresh fish downtown at the Dolphin)! We tell all our family and friends, if you're going to Kauai, this is the place to stay! We'll be visiting again next year.

The views are beyond imaginable and the condo has every necessity we could think of. The condo was so well maintained and clean. The decorations were tasteful and complemented the Hawaiian spirit! I can not think of a single complaint regarding this condo. The view of Hanalei Bay and Bali Hai are seriously unbelievable! Sunsets only got better each night we stayed here! Thanks for the wonderful vacation stay! Definitely returning!!

If you are looking for action and entertainment, do not come here. If you want to relax and unwind in beauty and quietness, unpack your bags and enjoy. The remotenessand tranquility was perfect juju for us. It is with mixed feelings I have that the Resort is hurting by not having a dining and bar available - but it really keeps it all less active and quiet (a good thing !) I just cannot say enough about the quietness - except for the Kauai offical bird...The units are comfortable and well-equipped, with exceptional ambience. The staff are very accomodating and eager to please. These units are an exceptional value and are bargain priced for everything you get. We will be back!!!

Spectacular View of Bali Hai and Hanalei Bay

From the moment we walked into the condo, we knew it was spectacular. The view from the Lanai overlooking the mountains of Bali Hai and Hanalei Bay was just spectacular.
The condo was very well equipped with beach towels, snorkeling gear, beach equipment, tennis rackets and all the kitchen supplies.
All the family loved the beautiful pool and tennis courts. The Happy Talk Lounge was perfect for evening glasses of wine overlooking Bali Hai.
Thank you very much. We had a wonderful time.

The condo was very nice, with fantastic views of Hanalei Bay. It was well equipped and comfortable. The resort had some issues, the small pool near the condo was not usable, the spa was broken, the restaurant and bar were closed for renovations and the beach was not very nice and right next to ongoing renovation/construction at the neighboring Princeville hotel.

Manager response:

Thank you for your review and staying in our lovely condo.<br />
<br />
We are sorry that the small pool and spa were not usable during your stay. They are now repaired and working. We are sorry for the inconvenience. We do hope you enjoyed the other large tropical pool at the resort with waterfalls.<br />
<br />
The Happy Talk Lounge was re-opened on July 13, 2009, but the restaurant is still closed.<br />
<br />
The major renovation of the Princeville Hotel converting it to a luxurious St. Regis Hotel is scheduled to be complete in October 2009. <br />
<br />
The NE corner of the two-mile crescent-shaped Hanalei Bay Beach that we share with the Princeville St Regis Hotel is great for snorkeling, swimming, exploring, and relaxing. In October 2009, it will return to the incredible beauty that earned it the #1 spot on "Dr. Beach" Stephen P. Leatherman's 2009 list of top 10 beaches. He has compiled the list annually since 1991.

This rental was spectacular. The location is minutes from Hanalei Bay and the ocean. It is a nice resort and the unit has everything you could want: well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed, great view from the lanai, videos and books that feature the area, tennis courts, a beautiful pool and spa and much more. The resort will drive you to your car if you request a golf cart, so you don't have to exert yourself too much.
I loved it and highly recommend it.
