My wife and I went to Kauai and Maui for our honeymoon. This resort was our first stop on our first trip to the islands. Overall the resort was very nice but our room really needed updating (it was very dark and somewhat shabby--too much so for the price). The resort is in a great location, close to everything on... more

Stayed in unit 3304 and booked through Regency Pacific. The girls at Regency were very helpful and accomodating after a mix-up. The unit itself was nice and simple. It had an upstairs loft which is where the bed was, a long walk in the middle of the night down stairs to get to the bathroom though. THe unit had all... more

We stayed 7 nights in unit 9123, a ground floor 1-bedroom condo booked through the private owner directly. This unit is in one of the "Bamboo" buildings with a fabulous view of the bay and mountains from both lanais. The condo has had some renovation work done, with lovely granite countertops in kitchen and bath and new stainless appliances. The... more

We recently returned from the wonderful HBR on Kauai's North shore, & must give some raves to the property and the unit we stayed in. First HBR is a lovely resort.Sprawling grounds, wonderful landscaping, knockout views, a great tropical pool, and a charming "old Hawaii" feel. I feel the old Hawaii feel is nice because many of the resorts we... more

My husband and I decided to elope in Kauai since we wanted it to be romantic and intimate. From reviews and advice, we decided to stay on the North Shore (Princeville/Hanalei). Seeing pictures of the island online, North part was more lush and had a charm to it. With some help, Hanalei Bay Resort seem to be a great place... more

I live on Kaua'i, but on the South Shore, which is a world away from the North Shore, both in personality and scenery - so when I had the opportunity to stay for one night at a condo here (4221) I jumped at it. I love that you get a feeling of "Old Hawai'i" immediately as you drive up -... more

My family (myself, husband, 3 year old, and baby) and I had the privilege of staying in HBR unit 4222 from May 2-10th. The reviews that I had read on this unit were extremely favorable, so I went in with high expectations. My expectations were not only met, but surpased. This condo is amazing! The unit is beautifully decorated and... more

Stayed at HBR room 1557-58 for our 25th anniversary. Condo was very clean, well kept and offered all the amenities you need. Beach is just a short walk down a fairly steep paved incline, but you can get a ride from the bell hop golf cart. Pool, hot tub, tennis courts are all on the premises. The pool and hot... more

We (two of us) recently completed a 3 night stay in unit # 4221, a one bedroom studio at Hanalei Bay Resort. A well stocked, clean unit for two people. Even stocked with beach chairs and snorkling masks ! For larger families, simply rent the entire two bedroom condo with kitchen facilities. Unsurpassed views of Bali Hai. Hard to pull... more

Ok, there is no doubt the view and location at the Hanalei Bay Resort are breathtaking. I could just sit on the hill all day and look over the bay. It's dramatically surrounded by misty green mountains and the view of the water is to die for. HOWEVER, we booked through some agent or something, and we got a room... more

Management response from
joan bettencourt, Director, Hanalei Bay Homeowners Assoc.

The resort no longer charges for the use of the tennis courts. This had been in effect since one month after this guest left which was in 07. They are free for anyone staying in a timeshare rental or private owner unit. J Bettencourt director BOD at HBR
