An elegant, newly renovated, very private condo. . Nestled in the trees, it features a short jungle walk to a quiet, private beach & looks out to sparkling Hanelei Bay, lush gardens, soaring emerald mountains, Bali Hai. 1 HOTEL with 7 organic (3 gourmet and one Michelin level) restaurants IS a short walk away. Makai Golf Course is too. HBR offers so much you never have to get in a car - just a kayak. It is serene - yet close to beach trails, golf, tennis, restaurants, shopping and more. ACCESS is a keycard from the front desk, open 24/7 We ask that with 24-hours notice, you allow us to show the condo once for about 15 minutes during your stay. The main bedroom has a king, a sitting area, a full bathroom, a lanai (with small dining table) and a private entrance. Separately, there is a large studio with a full Murphy Bed , a queen pull-out couch, its own lanai, a full bathroom, a side kitchen and a private entrance. Both spaces are private AND connect and have panoramic views. It is one flight up - on the second floor, a corner condo so very private. The resort offers beach towels and in our unlocked closet there are some beach chairs , a few water noodles , some sand toys for children and maybe one umbrella. Parking is right beside the condo. The condo is a one to two minute walk to the pool and Happy Talk Bar, yet far enough away that it is completely quiet. The bar has lovely Hawaiian music several nights a week, which stops at 9:00 and if you close the condo doors, you cannot hear it. 1 HOTEL is a 10 minute walk, with fabulous restaurants for all meals at relatively reasonable rates. Check out their over-the-top pancakes for breakfast! This is on the 2nd floor, up about a dozen steps. There is no elevator. Please note: there is only a washing machine in the unit. Bathing suits can be dried on the lanai. There is a commercial washer/dryer about 70' away. We will reimburse you if you choose to use them. PLEASE SEE RULES & POLICIES for RESORT & PARKING FEES One positive is that, in addition to giving you access to all their facilities, the fees allow you to arrive as early on your first day and stay as late on your last day as you like, essentially giving you almost two extra days at the resort HOTEL ONE plans to open in February, a 10 minute walk or 3-minute drive from HBR. It will have 7 organic RESTAURANTS, three of them gourmet & 7 BARS. If you come as a single, ask us for a $35.00 CREDIT/discount on the cleaning fee. BEACH TOWELS at the front desk. BEACH CHAIRS, BEACH UMBRELLA, BOOGIE BOARDS at the apartment. CUISINART COFFEE MAKER ***Access to Kee Beach (Haena State Park) and the Na Pali Coast Trail is only via a reservation system. REVIEWS for our property for previous owner - we recently purchased it, on 6/12/2022: Perfect spot for a perfect vacation! May 2022 Carlos D., BOISE, ID US Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 4 (Owner's Note: We have since renovated and improved the condition) We found the perfect location at HBR. Quick to the pool, lobby, beach, and parking. The room fit our full-grown family of 6 just right and had everything we needed for a great vacation week. If you are new to Princeville, this is a great spot. You can call the front desk for a ride to the beach and access to Hanalei, Queen's Bath, Hideaway, and the state park are all right there. There is also a grocery store 7 minutes away. We'll be back! Superb location, nice amenities - ideal for North shore exploring April 2022 Recent Guest, United States Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 5 We found the property as well as the unit to be excellent. Great spot to explore the North shore. The unit is right next to the pool amenities, yet out of earshot - a great combination. Magnificent view April 2022 Jessica J., Irvine, CA US Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 4 ( condition has been upgraded since this review by new owner) We loved every second of our stay. Coffee on the balcony was a favorite. We enjoyed tennis and swimming on property and the beach is secluded with great snorkeling where we saw a giant sea turtle. Hope to return with our kids as the property is perfectly set up for families! Wish the pool was warmer and the pool bar had been open. The property is close to the parking lot, but we loved the location. Can’t beat the view! It's all about location March 2022 Dianne M., Menomonee Falls, WI US Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 4 We have stayed at Hanalei Bay resort in the past and you just can't beat the beauty of the property, the location and views it offers. The happy talk lounge has been a nice addition but does congest the parking situation for a few hours at peak time. The beach equipment provided was nice to have. This property has been our favorite on our visits to the island of Kauai. It is picture post card beautiful and having the beach access on site is a tremendous bonus. Amazing - I didn't want to leave! February 2022 Recent Guest, VANCOUVER, BC Unknown Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition5 Beautiful location and view.

The perfect condo and resort! The views from this condo are amazing! This unit was immaculate, updated and well equipped with everything you need for the perfect vacation. Truly Amazing stay!! Lush setting, amazing views, great beach January 2018 Nina R., United States Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 4 We were celebrating our 40th anniversary and were looking for a clean, comfortable, well decorated condo with a view, good pool and beach. We found all of those things at Hanalei Bay Resort. Our unit was recently updated with a beautiful full kitchen, nice bathroom and comfortable furniture. Our view looked across towards the mountains, and though the pool was directly in our view, it is surrounded by so many lush plants that we couldn't hardly tell it was there. We had a small peak of the water and that was refreshing. Our deck had a table and four chairs and we ate outside regularly. Great location, fantastic views, incredible beach for snorkeling that you can walk to, large pool and jacuzzi, tennis courts, comfortable bed, full kitchen, golf cart shuttle to/from beach, live music played nightly, very friendly and helpful staff at front desk I would definitely stay here again. New year vacation January 2018 Robert M., United States Overall 5 Services from rental manager 5 Cleanliness 5 Location 5 Property condition 5 Full access to all parts of the condo Because of the privacy and separate entrances, this is better for four people/ two couples than a 2-bedroom.
