My husband, daughter, and I loved our time at Hanalei Colony Resort! Arriving a few days before Christmas, we enjoyed a low-key holiday which included this wonderful condo in front of which palms swayed over a lovely grass courtyard that led to the beautiful sandy beach. The on-site restaurant was fabulous, and we were close to many wonderful parks, trails,... More

Kauai is a special place. The North end of the island is much different than the south end where the large resorts are located. The North end is very laid back on the island that is the most laid back of all of Hawaii. Make sure you check out the Farmers Market. Very colorful and local produce can be purchased.... More

On our first vacation together, pre-marriage, my beloved and I stayed in Princeville; thirty years later, we decided to revisit the North Shore of Kaua'i and picked this place. It is remote, compared to Poipu or Kapa'a, and some of the food establishments are very, very popular. I'll review a few outside of this one. The staff was gracious and... More

Just got back from 7 glorious days. My daughters and I stayed at the Hanalei Colony Resort. Everyone was most helpful and accommodating. My clumsy self broke my toe within 5 minutes of checking in. The Resort comped me a $25 gift certificate for use at the restaurant on site. It wasn't necessary, but it was so thoughtful. Steven, the... More

This was our first stay at the resort and it will not be our last! This was an amazing resort for our family of four (3 yr old son / 9 yr old daughter). Plenty of beautiful trees, plants, lizards on the grounds and of course the beaches that are literally a stones throw away. Walking with our little ones... More

A long drive (over one hour) from Lihu'e and over several one way bridges brings you close to the ocean for this remote island resort. Our flight was 5 hours delayed (see my review on Go Airlines) thus we came in at midnight and you just keep going on Hwy 560 in the dark until you see the sign. Coming... More

We spent four nights here recently. The location on the north shore is spectacular, and we liked the relative isolation and simplicity of the place. It's a place for quiet walks on an isolated beach, not to see and be seen. Proximity to Tunnels and Ke'e beaches is great, as well as the Kalalau trail. Stock up on groceries before... More

we spent for the second time a week in this resort, and it is just amazing! nice, well equipped units, open to the Pacific, it feels at night as if you were sleeping on the beach. close to the Beach from where youcan walk approx. 5 KM to mmet the end of it, where the cliffs fall into the Pacific....

This is the place to stay if you want to take in the wonders of Kauai's beautifully dramatic north shore. There is no better location in the area; some of the best beaches in Hawaii (which hotels cannot build on), are a mile or so away -- a lovely walk -- and you feel like you're in the midst of... More
