HBR Family Condo 1557/8, Mt View, Full Kitchen, AC, W/D Add'l Resort Fees

Great experience for our family only thing that was a little bummer is the construction and noise on the roof, but other than that, it was an awesome time!

Pros: Beautiful garden and water feature. Free rides to the beach and back. 2 bathrooms are nice. Unit has most things already there like washing machines and utensils etc. The unit is 2 units conjoined thus is very spacious, could almost fit 8 people. Mountain view is great, you can see the waterfall at the top. Point of contact was available late at night when the electricity went out the whole North side of the island. Lots of welcome goodies. Cons: Smells like mold the moment you enter. One of the doors is funky; key doesn't work well. Check-in was confusing because this is a privately owned unit in Hanalei Bay resort. The front took a good 30 minutes to check us in because they had to difficulty confirming our reservation which they did not have on file for some reason. A bunch of extra fees like parking and resort amenity fees were charged at the end of the stay (around $30 a day).

The location of the room was fantastic- close to restaurants, pool & parking lot. The view from the lanai was so peaceful and private. We enjoyed our coffee every morning there watching the birds. The rooms were fully stocked with everything we needed and the king mattress was extremely comfortable. Overall I am extremely pleased with everything & I highly recommend staying here. Also the resort is stunning- the pool, the views, landscaping & more. Happy Talk is a great place for a bite and drink and the live entertainment is great.

Such a great unit! We really enjoyed our stay. The kids loved every minute of it. The unit is very well stocked for a family.

Unit was suitable and we like the amenities and beach access of HBR.

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.

Our stay was excellent!! The resort was in the most beautiful place and the beach was SUPER close with golf cart rides to it if needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. We got beach and jungle all in one! (And the pool was pretty awesome too.) We had conjoined rooms which were exactly what we needed. The kids got one room and we got the other, while still being able to spend time together as a family. We both had kitchens, which was also helpful. And, the washer/ dryer was a huge bonus. I will also add that we have a special needs kid, and these rooms were perfect for us. Not only was everything easily accessed, there was also a ton in the kitchens for cooking, meds, etc. would absolutely stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time to Kauai and heard good things about this resort. We rented 2 spaces right next to each other and when we arrived, we were greeted by cockroaches!! There was a mildew smell and every cabinet you opened you can smell the chemical Raid used to kill these nasty pests. We encountered at least 3-4 cockroaches per day. We were afraid to leave anything out - even worried about leaving our suitcases open! The space was much smaller than expected and the resort, overall, is a bit older. We did enjoy the fact that the customer service was on point, everyone was extremely nice. We probably would return to Kauai but not to this resort.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love this resort for its amenities and location and this is the 3rd time renting this unit. Property manager is easy to work and communicate with. It is a great value if you are not needing ocean view and you are able to ambulate a short steep walk. I was disappointed that the Murphy bed frame remains loose in 1557 as it was on our visit last year. Furniture is also showing a bit of wear but outside of that the unit is comfortable with a nice lanai, air conditioning, a large bathroom and full kitchen are great as well. We’ll be back in the future as it is a reasonable price option for a North Shore visit!

We love staying at the Hanalei Bay Resort. It’s very peaceful and beautiful. This unit is close to the pool and amenities which is very nice and convenient. This was our third time staying at the HBR and we would stay there again. We traveled with our 3 young daughters ages and this unit worked well with having kids! Thank you!

Wonderful property with amazing views. The attention to detail was outstanding. Thank you for letting us enjoy your unit.

access to great beach, beautiful views, beautiful landscape
