The property is lovely - right on the ocean. It is nicely decorated and clean. Some things definitely show some weathering - as is expected when so exposed to the elements. The Resort is lovely too. The pool area was very nice. I would definitely stay there again if I were to return to Kauai.

Quiet Paradise in Kauai!

We thoroughly loved and enjoyed our short stay at Hanalei Colony Resort. We were just feet from the beach, loved soaking up the great views from our lanai, and enjoyed the simple amenities of the condo. The grounds keeping was very good and there was beautiful landscaping. No fancy frills, just basic amenities to help you unplug.

Quiet and relaxing

Our stay got off to a rough start because the cleaners had not come after the previous guests left. It was Easter Sunday and on one was available to come. Luckily, the rental company had an available unit for us to spend the night in. The cleaning delay meant that we were not able to get into our unit until late morning the next day when we could finally unpack and begin our holiday. The unit is well lived in but clean and well located. The overall property is very north shore; beautiful and relaxed. The bbq / pool area is great. Overall very happy with our stay.

Great Getaway

If you're looking for the end of the road, this is it! We loved the location even though driving to other locations on the island were sometimes a bit time-consuming. Plenty of sun here throughout our week-long stay. Great location near the beach. Not very swimmable, but loved falling to sleep listening to the waves and watching the sunrise every day. Plenty of other beaches nearby also. The unit was very comfortable, but could use an update or two. Would definitely go back!

Clean, wild and beautiful north shore ocean front stay

Property was right on the water, close to our favorite north shore beaches for swimming, exploring and snorkeling. Very remote and quiet but for the sound of crashing waves. New pool pavillion/BBQ center is nice. Shuttle to north shore sites is an added bonus given parking can be limited. We were cozy in this clean and unit! Being able to go back and forth easily to Tunnels was amazing!

Family vacay

Our initial impression when we arrived was not great. The woman who checked us in was pleasant until she found out what unit we were staying in and that we booked it through VRBO and not the actual property. She was very short and rude. We also were not able to take advantage of the shuttle on property because we booked through VRBO. Over all this did not affect our visit but the owners should be aware of the "vibe" guests get when arriving. We stayed at the property with our 2 teenagers. The location was amazing. The unit was definitely in need of some TLC and upgrades. The bbq and pool area was very nice and new.

Fabulous View

This is a small, quiet resort with only about 40 units in ten two story buildings. The view is just as seen in the online picture! I don’t think you can find a better view and close beach access anywhere else on the north shore! The beach access was literally 15 feet from the lanai! The plantings are nice, and the pool area with a hot tub is quite lovely. The unit itself had adequate space for two adults (4 adults might be a bit tight). The living room area was nicely decorated and had comfortable furniture. The bed was very comfortable and had good linens and pillows. The kitchen had ample utensils for cooking. The bathrooms are very basic, and the tub/shower had rust on the metal sliding doors and mold in the chalking: certainly not a make or break point but needs to be taken care of. We let the rental agency know about it, and they said they’d take care of it for future guests. Unfortunately, the restaurant on-site was not very good, but charming Hanalei is a ten minute ride away! Although the unit is a bit rundown, our overall experience was quite positive, and we would return!

Relaxing and beautiful

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the last part of our trip of five weeks in Hawaii. We started on Oahu and ended up at Kauai. traveled with three of my friends rented a wonderful convertible, soft top Jeep, which was great to explore. The weather does change quite quickly there. It was beautiful, warm and falling asleep to the ocean. There’s nothing better looking forward to spending more days in the future here. We enjoyed cooking in the house and the back deck listening to the ocean was priceless. Easy to get to and everything that we needed.

Feet from the ocean and it feels so good!

The unit was really just feet from the ocean. The unit was as promised, lots of space to spread out , there were only two of us but there would be lots of room for four. The bed was comfy and the ocean breeze cooled us off in the evening. The kitchen was big. We didn't use any of the resort facilities like the pool. There was a beach chair and umbrella and cooler of for use. It was very breezy when we were the end of May so we weren't able to sit on the deck as much as we had hoped. If you have a reservation on the shuttle that takes you to the state park they will pick you up at the resort and that was great especially at the end of the day.he We didn't have a great experience at the onsite restaurant, maybe just a bad night for them. Only issue was the property manager not responding in a timely to our concern of the smoke detector randomly beeping one evening which lead to the battery dying a few days later and the smoke detector blaring while we were out. I felt bad for the people around us cause it was very loud!

The perfect place to unwind!

Imagine the sound of the waves just outside your window and constant trade winds blowing. A rustic beach almost all to yourself, quiet neighbors (there’s a 10pm quiet code), beautiful pool, delicious restaurant, cute coffee/gift shop, and above all an open, airy condo simply, but comfortably appointed. If there’s a downside, it’s the driving distance to attractions, but being almost at the end of the line—there are seven one-lane bridges between the condo and the nearest town!—truly allows one to unplug, breathe, and relax. A plus to the owner for quickly responding to our inquiries prior to and during our stay. Definitely recommend!

Just what we needed

Hanalei Colony Resort is like a step back in time. Its not fancy but all you need. The location cant be beat and we love the lush scenery and old Hawaii vibe of Hanalei. Sounds of the ocean as you sleep and a touch of tropical rain almost every day. Restaurant on site is worn but food was good and service great! Get the poke nachos! Best Mai Tai on the island!

Vacation in Kauai

The condo was lacking in adequate kitchenware, dishes and basic condiments (No salt or pepper shaker). The extra blankets requested were moldy and were not used. After several calls and promises, nothing was remedied. The manager eventually paid us 500 but this did not make up for the inconvenience. We would not return to this site.
