We loved the views and the kitchen. The unit was well decorated and had everything we needed for a family of 4. The only complaint was that the AC units were not able to go below 72-74 (my husband thought it was slightly warm at night). If you are the type of person that needs a really cool room to sleep, note the temperature may not meet your needs.

The decor was nice, especially the beautiful artwork. The lanai was our favorite spot. What a view. It was my favorite breakfast spot. There was plenty of room to spread out. Kitchen was well stocked as was the closet of beach supplies. Really made the experience lovely. Thank you so much!

This condo is spacious, centrally located, tastefully decorated, and perfectly equipped. The views from the balconies are stunning: it was a treat to eat breakfast and dinner while looking out onto Hanalei Bay and, in the evening, the sunset. All of the resort amenities -- pool, tennis, beach -- are an easy walk from the condo. We will stay here again!

We brought our own rice cooker, and used the BBQ grilles for a nice piece of local fish. It's really too bad that there is no restaurant on the property since the Bali Hai is closed.

Kitchen was well stocked too. The location of the condo in the resort was perfect to the pool, parking lot, and short walk down to the beach. We love Hanalei!

By the end of the week my back was in poor shape. In addition, the tableware and cutlery were rather limited and poor quality and the air conditioner in the living room barely worked.

Really enjoyed the condo! We joked coming from SoCal that the apt was bigger than our own. Beautiful views from the lanai accessible from the living room and master bedroom. Slept great with the a/c. Due to humidity it gets hot without it. Full kitchen was nice too, although we only really used the fridge and microwave. A little bit of a trek to the unit, but the golf cart brings you to your car, beach etc if you like. Nice amenities with the complex- pool, Mai tai Monday's, tennis courts etc. Definitely recommend and I can be picky where I stay!

We liked the unit. It is comfortable and clean. The resort itself seemed to have a lack of employees (only one shuttle person most of the time) and many of the employees have been there less than a month. The loss of restaurant and lounge also is a big loss, as walk up food and entertainment would make it so we wouldn't have to go out for each meal. Only other concern is the excessive cleaning charge ($50 per day in our case). Other units in the same complex have a much lower rate for this service.

I go to Kauai to hike and escape crowds and this was the perfect location as it is near everything. Really nice place.

This condo was perfect for us. We like to cook our own food so the kitchen was a bonus. There is a fresh fish market in Hanalei which we found early on that was spectauliar. The location was a bit remote which we also liked. Having the bed in the loft was a struggle as we are both tall so we needed to be conscious of the beams and the fan. The bed could use a new mattress, which I am sure could be a great expense in Hawaii. Kristen and the staff at Hanalei Bay were all very accommodating.

This condo has an amazing view, but the carpet needs to be removed because of how humid it is the carpet makes the condo smell and seem gross and moldy. The walls need to painted a lighter and more neutral color, to make it more lighter and cleaner. The master bedroom needs a new bed spread that is not brown and much lighter in color. Brown bedspreads are gross. The kitchen needs to be updated badly too. We spent way to much money on this rental for what we got. I do not recommend this condo until it has been updated and cleaned.

Decent stay in Princeville for 5 nights! I think it's a good value, and what you see in the room pictures/description here is what you get. No surprises here. One thing to note about this room is that it is about the size of a large hotel room with a small terrace. It is really just 1 room (no living room and kitchen). The coffee/dining table and TV is about 10 feet from the bed. There is a fridge, microwave, and utensils in a little nook by the bathroom, but the space is small, so don't expect it to be bigger than what you see in the pictures...

Perhaps with the little one! Thank you Hanalei Bay Resort!

Friendly staff, convenient location for the north side of the island. Hiking, ziplining, scuba diving were all close by. The condo itself was roomy and comfortable. The beach was not the best in the area, but better beaches are close by. Only downside to our visit were the 4 cockroaches we saw in the kitchen. We made sure we kept all our food in the fridge.

The Resort is a great, more 'classic kauai' small nook in princeville. 707 was nicely furnished, a very comfy bed, and a lanai you won't forget anytime soon. The restaurant that is situated here and in many guidebooks was not yet open. But that would have added a lot. The people that worked here were very nice and accommodating.

The pros of this condo are that it has a kitchen, is generally clean, and the resort amenities (pool, happy talk bar, close beach, concierge, etc) are really nice. The cons are that the room is very dark- there’s not a lot of natural light and the decorating in a bit dismal. It is also outdated- the furniture, kitchen, and bathroom. There is nowhere to put your clothes- no dressers and very little closet space. Overall- it has the basic needs, but I would not stay in this specific condo again as the cons outweigh the pros.

You couldn't beat the view (which would rate a FIVE STAR) from Unit 3303 and the basic amenities within the room sufficed for us as a single couple. That being said, I gave this a three star rating because the room is in dire need of some updates esp with the wallpaper and the moldy smell from the A/C unit that is noticeable from the moment you walk in. Also, it would be nice to have privacy between the larger unit deck and Unit 3303's to enjoy a private coffee on the lanai without worrying that you're staring at the family next to you.

I recently visited Kauai and stayed at HBR #3303. Since it was a short stay and I was alone, I booked a 1-bedroom/studio. The unit needs a serious update/face lift, but the price was right so I was satisfied. The view was fabulous. The only downside was that the lanai was shared with the unit next door, and the only separation were a few potted plants, so there was little privacy. But the sunsets were worth it!

The view from this condo is spectacular and worth renting for that alone. It is located close to the pool and onsite restaurant. Also, we found the added amenities to be helpful such as beach chairs, and a cooler/ice chest, in the unit, for guest use, made our stay more pleasant. I will rent the unit in the future.

There is a coffee maker, a small refrigerator & microwave that was perfect for breakfast and lunch groceries. The pool is right outside the building, and close to the parking lot.

The room was as described and suited us quite well. The view was beautiful and we loved having our morning coffee on the lanai and listening to the music from Happy Talk lounge in the evening. A few things that need attention: the bed closest to the door is tired and needs to be replaced, the wooden hanging rod on the wall behind the door in the bathroom is not secure and cannot be used, and the vinyl shower curtain really needs to be cleaned/refreshed. Other than that we really enjoyed our time there. Thank you!

We enjoyed staying in 1206. The location was perfect and close to the parking lot, pool, and hot tub. Yet, it still had a great view and was quiet. The condo itself had some chairs for the beach which were nice to use. The golf cart access to the beach was lovely as we had surfboards and easier to take a ride there than walk with the boards and chairs. We are fond of Hanalei Bay Resort for its access to the beach, tennis court, live music at restaurants, pool/hot tub area, and views. We will be back.

Great place to stay. Great views from the lanai, quiet and relaxing. We are here usually around Thanksgiving, so we don't need a full kitchen, as we eat at some good restaurants around Hanalei. So the microwave and coffee pot with mini fridge is all we need. The room is comfortable and has what you need. The only drawback is the beds are starting to sag a bit near the edges where you would sit to get in or talk on the phone. But still not a big deal. Love it here. We will always come back.

I liked this resort much better that the hotel that is nearby because it is a lttle more earthy. Built in the 70's, it is very well maintained with goregeous landscaping, pools with waterfalls and a path to the beach. The room is very plain vanilla, could use some bighter wall colors to compliment the outside landscape. The kitchen is actually in the bathroom closet and counter and food prep space is the bathroom sink area. All cooking is done at the outdoor barbeques. There is a microwave and they have a great blender for smoothies.

There is a spa a well, the resort is extremely clean and well managed. The laundry is simple to use and clean.

I was very pleased with my stay here. The view of the ocean was beautiful! The king size bed was very comfy, the bathroom was clean and had soaps, shampoo, a hair dryer and coffee maker. The closet was supplied with a few straw hats, a boogie board, beach chairs, salt, pepper, plates, mugs, etc. It also has a nice flat screen TV, which my boyfriend was very happy to find out he could watch the hockey game on.

We also appreciated the beach toys and chairs made available in the front closet. My only and greatest complaint is that even though we took great care of the condo during our stay by keeping it clean, the property manager still decided to charge against our deposit claiming that it took more ...

This condo was perfect for us and our four teenage granddaughters. The units were very clean and inviting. The upstairs loft was great for the girls and the bedrooms were large and bright. The view was the best, with beautiful sunsets and early morning rainbows. It is close to the small pool and bbq area, so that was handy. The walk up to the large pool and parking lot was a bit of a hike, but the staff will come pick you up in a golf cart. Our only complaint was the lack of lounger or comfortable chairs on the lanai. Instead there are tall tables with high seats, not very comfortabl...

Nicely appointed, updated and spacious condo! Top level unit made for great views of Hanalei Bay. Not a big deal but there were a couple minor issues with unit (TV/Cable was not working and shower curtain in one of the bathrooms would not stay up). We will definitely consider staying here again if we return to Kauai in future

The location ("Banana" building), and views towards Hanalei Bay and the Pacific Ocean were wonderful. The unit is in need of repairs (bedroom drawers, screen doors, bathroom door, etc). It's a unit that has probably had the same carpet and furnishings for a long period of time. That said...the resort, location, & views are something we are looking forward to coming back to. This place needs some things fixed and some refurbishing, but it didn't bother us much. We had a great time.

We loved this resort so much that we returned six months later and brought our family. The grounds are beautiful, pool and hot tub fantastic, love the waterfalls, and the staff is super friendly and helpful. Both condos we stayed in had fantastic views of the bay and mountains and with ever changing weather and sunsets you never get tired of looking. We love the option every day of walking down to the beach to swim, snorkel, kayak, or take a short drive for good boogie board waves. I'm planning a trip back as soon as I can. We look forward to the new pool bar and restaurant!

We met the owners of this unit on a previous visit to the resort and they invited us to see their unit. We loved the unit and the views and booked our next trip to their unit. The views of Hanalei Bay and the mountains are breathtaking! The property has 2 pools and many activities as well as it is only minutes to 2 of the best golf courses on Kauai. The unit is very well furnished and has a washer and dryer. The unit even has beach gear including snorkel equipment. The owners also made the booking very easy and were very accommodating and followed up with us upon our arrival to make s...

We stayed in HBR #7307 - 8 from June 7th 0 13, 2013. From the first moment we walked thru the door and saw the magnificant views of Hanalei Bay and the mountains, we loved the place, especially the lanai. The unit(s) was comfortable and had great beach toys such as snorkels, coolers, beach towels, fins, chairs, etc. so we didn't have to rent those. While the unit hasn't been upgraded, it was "beach" comfortable and the beds were also comfortable. Unit was also very clean and quiet. Location is near the second pool and the main pool and tennis courts were a short walk away. We would de...

We had a wonderful, relaxing time staying at this condo. It was so large and roomy, and we spent hours lounging on the lanai enjoying the amazing view. Everything was very comfortable- from the furnishings, to the beach accessories, to the wonderful movie collection, and the well stocked kitchen. We loved falling asleep at night to the sound of the ocean, while the cool breeze drifted through the screen. The resort is just beautiful, and we would love to visit again one day. It truly is a slice of heaven.

We spent four nights in this HBR property perched on the Princeville Bluffs. It's a lovely, spacious, comfortable vacation rental with *unparalleled* views of Bali Hai. Situated on the top floor of the building, the condo was quiet and peaceful. It's decorated in the "Island Style:" large, comfortable bamboo furniture, classic Hawaiian knick-knacks, roomy four-poster beds. There's even a darling silk palm tree in the living room! The kitchen is well-appointed, allowing us to cook and dine "at home" during our stay -- there's nothing like getting fresh fish to grill on one of the outdoo...

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 ...

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 ...

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 !)

The Condo 1205/1206 can highly be recommended, very clean and renovated. The hotel is close to the nicest beach on Kauai, named the Kee Beach and to the Foodland. The guests are mostly retired people or honeymooners. No restaurant available at the moment und construction work in some units is being done. The pools including hot tube is nice and relaxing. We were three people staying for four days and can recommend the hotel. The wireless excess did not work properly in this unit, but the reception helped us with the hotel wi-fi out.

Condo 1205/1206 proved to be a good value for me and my 22 y.o. son. It would be an even better value with a larger group. Swimming pool/spa were fantastic. Bummer the restaurant/bar were not operational. They were supposed to be but a fire in July put a stop to construction. Condo 1205's kitchenette had no food pantry to store dry products, no food preparation area, no oven and the undercounter refrig had no freezer for ice making/storage. We hung out mostly in the Hanalei Bay area so it was a little inconvenient to drive in and out of Princeville, but overall it was a good stay.
