Stayed here on our Kauai excursion. Rooms were a bit outdated, but clean. The biggest problem we had was the 30-40 minute drive to get to most of the attractions on Kauai. Would have paid more to stay south of Kapa'a. More

As other reviewers have noted, the rooms are in need of upgrade and maintenance. The resort is in a great location: specifically, you can walk down to the same beach as the Saint Regis Princeville down a steep hill. If you like tennis, there are 6-8 very nice tennis courts. The views are nice from the units and the pool... More

We love the area and had stayed at Hanalei Bay Resort five years ago in a private owned unit that we booked though the owner. This time we booked unit 9221 through Summit Pacific Inc. The process was easy ,,the price was right but I was dissappointed on the condition and the bathroom not being very clean. You can't always... More

Despite the lobby and the restaurant being closed for repairs, the hotel is a decent place and has an ideal location on the point of Hanalei Bay. Condos with full kitchens make it easy to feed yourself on a budget, and you get plenty of exercise walking up and down the hill to the beach (or you can ring for... More

The Hanalei Bay Resort is a lush, gorgeous spot on Kauai. It is going through some renovations, but it didn't have any effect on my stay. The views and the Aloha spirit are excellent. I stayed in 1557, which was luxurious, beautiful , private and quiet. I had a delightful stay, and would pick this spot again. The microwave and... More

Simply put, we don't want to ever leave. Condo 4302 is amazing, as well as our experience with working with the owner Janice. Janice has answered my million questions prior to our vacation in her condo. We had read some bad reviews due to last year's fire and ongoing renovations. Let me say, the pool is up and running and... More

We couldn't have been happier with our choice to stay at HBR for a week during Dec 2011. The owner was a pleasure to work with and there were no surprises. Main pool and restaurant were still closed, but we wanted to go to the beach every day anyway and explore Hanalei and the east side of the island, so... More

Condo 3105 at Hanalei Bay Resort was fantastic and a perfect home for us to rest and relax at the end of six long days exploring Kauai. 3105 is quaint, comfortable and welcoming. Conveniently positioned on the lower level, equipped with all our needs and close to carparking, beach and pool. The views are stunning! Booking and liaising with owner... More

When looking for a place to stay on the north shore, we chose Hanalei Bay Resort specifically because of the wonderful looking lagoon pool, which we thought would be perfect for our young child. We knew their were renovations occurring, and specifically enquired about the pool and were assured it would be open. Well, we got there, and to our... More

The pool reopened January 2nd. Due to heavy rains the beginning of December, the flagstone repair project got pushed back. It was supposed to reopen mid December. I am sorry you weren't informed. More

I vacationed in heaven at Hanalei Bay, a three bedroom suite, # 4301-2-3. Every detail was perfect from the friendly service to the magnificent rooms. First is the view. Every single morning I awoke to sipping coffee on the deck overlooking the bay and the Napali coast, listening to the waves, watching the surfers, and counting the waterfalls in the... More
