This was a hard place to leave! The proximity to the ocean was amazing. Easy check in. Great communication. Clean and comfortable property. So easy to sleep with the ocean breeze and waves lulling us to sleep. Great access to the areas hiking and beaches. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you!

Best location on island

There's no better place on Kauai. Beach front- quiet- bike to tunnels and snorkel... the best. For the price especially during the holiday this is the place to stay. We sleep each night to the sound of the ocean and woke up to beautiful sunrises. Highly recommend.

Ocean Dreams

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit will have you admiring the view by day and fast asleep at night to the sound of crashing waves. It's the perfect base for exploring the sights of the north and providing a relaxing retreat to return home to.

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: We started every morning with coffee at the table on the porch overlooking the ocean, and one morning we spent about 5 hours just sitting and reading our books. Every evening we returned to that spot to enjoy a cocktail. We loved hearing the ocean at night through the open windows as we fell asleep. It was a great getaway, and we very much enjoyed our stay!

Best Location on Kauai

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week here and one in Poipu. For our taste this is the place. If you want to sleep on the 10th floor and sit around a crowded pool this is not for you. Yes, the unit could use some updating but for location and atmosphere Hanalei Colony can't be beat. WE WILL BE BACK!

Relaxing on the Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: Great little spot right on the water. About 180 degrees of ocean views. While it is in a complex, you'll barely notice in this unit. Constant sounds of the ocean waves crashing on the beach, morning views of the sun rising over Princeville, this is a great spot. Great for a couple but would also work if you have one or two small children as there are two twin beds in the side room. There are also two full bathrooms which is quite nice as well! There is a restaurant on site with a great owner and staff. You'll want to stop in there and have a drink with the locals; they're all great folks. We'll be back to book this place again within the year.

Beachfront at the Colony

The pictures match the reality -- we sat outside with wine and were watching waves fairly close to the unit.:-) It can be a minimal beach on high tide and the tide comes up to the resort rock boundary. For folks looking for a condo on a beach in the Hanalei area, this unit is a great home base. A small but functional kitchen and although no dishwasher, the starter cleaning supplies -- sponge, brushes, Dawn, made it simple to keep up with the disk washing. A comfortable bed and falling asleep to the waves... Ahhh, wish I was back there again. :-) The WIFI worked great and was specific to this unit. The door lock keycodes were nice as we didn't have to worry about losing a key in the sand or anything. With prior arrangements, the Haena state park shuttle will pick up ticket holders at the resort which was very nice. And we found the restaurant, OPAKAPAKA, next door to the resort, delicious. They can make togo food, then take it to the condo and eat outside overlooking the waves. We had a very relaxing time. :-)

Comfortable, clean, ocean breeze

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: F3 was exactly as pictured. We found property very clean and comfortable with everything we could possibly need. Everything was in working order with exception of one toilet running and not flusing right and one of the back small windows with wooden louvers, did not open and close completely (maybe warped from moisture?) Most likely will be returning. Would love to get ground level unit in Bld A but could not find information on it on web. Second floor was nice, but difficult to drag suitcases up. Although it was fine for my husband and I, we are not sure family with kids or even adults who are "sun worshipers" would be satisfied with the limited access to a swimming beach. It was great to listen to wave and feel breeze but we are much older...not interested in frolicking in the ocean.

Quaint, Quiet, Beautiful

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of and view from this location was spectacular. Very remote, quiet, and listening to the waves while laying in bed was amazing. The place was a bit dated and could use some upgrades, but it was manageable. There is no AC, but the listing notes this and many places in the north of Kauai do not have AC, but this should be advertised with emphasis in the listing/title. Overall, great, fun little place to stay.

low key ocean front unit

it's a down to earth type place away from the big hotel feel. It was quiet except for a little construction next door. Love the view. Having the restaurant on site was a bonus. The Ke'e shuttle picks up and drops off in the parking lot if you pre arrange it. So convenient. Would definitely come back.

Wonderful

We loved the rustic, peaceful vibe of the colony after spending a few days each in Waikiki and Kapa'a. The property is as advertised, not new and shiny, no AC or TV... everything we wanted and needed. Open air, literally steps from the water on the second floor, cooling breeze, falling asleep listening to the waves. Check in info all received ahead of time. Best unit location!! The onsite laundry is by the pool where there is also a lovely large shaded seating area with two mega grill set ups including mini fridges for dining. Great set up once you find it, lol, dont just look at the little bridge, go Over it and to the right. Laundry coins available for purchase at the office. Everyone we encountered there were friendly. Tunnels beach is just down the way a bit with breath taking views and great snorkeling (in the summer). Go EARLY for parking! If you are going to Kauai, do not miss the north - get at least to Hanalei to see the real beauty! The roads are narrow, pace is refreshingly not hectic, MaiTai's at Tahiti Nui are omg, Holey Grail donuts are very good, The Terrace (upstairs) fabulous for dinner. NaPail Catamaran coast tour - exceptional!! NaPali coast speechless! Loved our time at Hanalei Colony.

Musty/mildew... but everything else was great

First off, great location!!! Peaceful, and the ocean will lull you right to sleep. Great having meals on the lanai, and walking the beach. Tunnels beach is close for great snorkeling. Hiking the Kalalau trail is close. North shore Kauai magic, and I didn't hear a single rooster. But, when we first walked in there was an overwhelming must smell. We opened all the windows and it cleared out mostly, except if your nose was anywhere near the carpet. My allergies were going crazy, and I was in a Benadryl stupor if I had to spend anything over a hour inside the unit, which was unavoidable as a couple days were very rainy. Which leads to another thing I didn't realize - No TV. You don't really need one, unless you're stuck inside from the rain and are tired of reading. All and all, 3 stars - some great, some not so great. If you don't have allergies, and love reading, this is the worlds best spot.

Beautiful location could use slight improvements

First of, the location and grounds are beautiful. It is ocean front so you can’t beat that and the pool area is wonderful for the kids and kept very clean and beautifully groomed. The online description was not kidding about the trade winds though. The entire time we were there the gusts were 15-30 mph so we we not able to enjoy the lanai or the beach front and had to drive over to hanalei beach to escape the wind. So keep this in mind if you have kids. Also while the vrbo property alludes to it, I’m not sure it’s made clear the property does not have air conditioning. Even with the winds the apartment stays a bit too warm and we had to keep both the front door and back open all night to get ventilation. Lastly the place could have used a bit more sprucing up. All the sheets, pillows and towels seemed very used and musty and need replacing for comfort. While we enjoyed our stays there we’re definitely things that could have made the stay more comfortable.
