There is nothing quite like sitting on the lanai taking in the views of the magical Hanalei Bay. From sunrise to sunset , it never got old and we did not want to leave. Hanalei Bay resort is beautiful, love that it has its own beach access, don’t even have to load up in the car to have a beach day. Resort is beautifully landscaped and maintained Staff are all very friendly. (Make sure you are aware of extra resort fees on top of VRBO fees. For us, to have the pool and beach access, totally worth it !)
The only downside to our stay was the AC was not working in the bedroom. Given it was April, the first two nights were manageable with the fan but the third night was raining so it was extra humid and didn’t sleep great. We reported this to host Aaron, he was responsive but unfortunately because it was the weekend, there was no one who could come out and repair it.
Loved having the condo stocked with some snorkel equipment, chairs , umbrella and cooler, very handy! My only suggestion would be to provide at least 2 Tommy Bahama or other “back pack” style chairs for easier transport to the beach. There is only 1 of those type of chairs and the strap is broken so you can’t throw it on your back, there are other chairs in there but they are not back pack style , so it’s just a lot to carry down with coolers, towels etc.
Assuming the AC gets fixed which I imagine it probably already has been, we would come back to this property!!

Property is exactly as described in the advertisement. Really nice that this condo has some personal items like tennis rackets, beach chairs, cooler, etc. it made our stay that much more enjoyable. The resort is great with tennis courts, pools and access to the best beach in Princeville!

Beautiful property. This unit has everything you need for your stay! Photos were exactly of what we got. Nice unit. Perfect view. Tropical pool. Very convenient beach with golf cart shuttle service great for snorkeling and hanging out. Plenty of shade trees. Shallow water for little ones. Snorkeled and saw a turtle. No elevators. Stairs were 3 flights up to our room with a panoramic view. Shuttle driver handled the luggage. The Management Company for this unit contacted us to welcome us and make sure everything was great. Would come again. Thank you!

The property was breathtaking. The walks were a bit much... thank goodness for the great guys on the golf carts!!! When i said we had family in the property, i meant staying at the same resort in their own condos. It was just an overall amazing stay! Everyone was extremely courteous and helpful. Beautiful resort and will stay again and will highly recommend to friends and family!!

We loved our stay. Gorgeous views, spacious comfortable unit, and ideal location on the property. Perfect set up for our family, with the kids able to stay in the loft separate from the main bedroom. Would love to stay here again on our next visit to the island. Mahalo!

Even better than the photos - great view especially for sunsets, well-appointed with lots of nice touches. Great for a relaxing getaway - clean, spacious, and comfortable. The complex was beautiful as well - nicely maintained and great pool areas. The restaurant on-site isn’t so great - basic menu and ok food. Definitely recommend a drive to Hanalei or walk to Princeville for better dining options. We loved the condo and would definitely stay again!

Amazing island view from the lanai’s and from inside the living and bedroom. Beautiful furnishings and decor. Nicely equipped kitchen. Gorgeous lobby and pool, and friendly staff.
Three flights of stairs to the unit. Parking is uphill and a few minutes walk from the unit. The resort does offer shuttle service by request.
Princeville is lovely, and lots of beaches and trails to explore on the north and east sides of the island. Aloha, and Mahalo to the hosts of this beautiful home. We loved our 12 days stay.

We loved this property so much, highly recommended to anyone who enjoys breathtaking views. It's furnished really nicely too. Only 2 things to consider: lots of hills at this property (they do have shuttle service if needed), and the mattress was a little too firm for us. Having quiet morning breakfasts and eating dinner watching the sunsets were amazing. You'll love it!

The Hanalei Bay resort is beautiful and everything about the our stay was wonderful EXCEPT the unit itself. The unit is actually beautiful and the views are incredible. We were very excited when we first arrived until we went to bed. The sheets reeked of heavy scent from detergent. There was a film of laundry soap that was palpable. We tried airing out the pillows and room but to no avail. We called, texted and left a message for the property managers of the unit but never heard back. We ended up having to cover pillows with t-shirts and strip bed down to less comfortable blankets. The smell was so strong we struggled to sleep. Very disappointing. The ad said unit is run by a professional property management group but pros wouldn't use heavily scented detergents and would respond to calls. Unit is lovely but until owners switch their management co I would not recommend staying here.

My family of 4 (with 2 kids - 3 year old and 7 months) had an amazing time staying at this condo! The views are truly awe inspiring and the condo itself was very clean, spacious and convenient for a family with several separate sleeping areas, washer dryer, large and modern kitchen and beach toys, and also nicely updated with quality touches and nice decor. It felt very quiet and private, and like we had one of the best spots on the entire resort (which is saying something!). 10/10 would recommend and will come back. When we were first checking in we had a minor communication snafu with the management, but this was resolved by Emil, who was responsive and kind.
Overall incredible stay, made amazing memories as a family, and will definitely be back! A true paradise.
