Oceanfront Retreat with Incredible Views Just 90 Seconds from the Beach

The view of the ocean is spectacular. Very off the beaten path. Beautifil

The location of unit with proximity to the beach is heavenly!!The host was clear with instructions and was available if needed.A huge bonus was NOT having a television which made the stay more enjoyable and relaxing.The kitchen is well appointed.Aesthetically, the rusticity of the unit is charming and comfortable. We look forward to staying here again!!My only constructive criticism/suggestions: A deep clean of unit at periodic intervals with special attention to the kitchen appliances (ie) top of refrigerator, hood vent (I cleaned the grease off the exterior of the hood) cabinet fronts,

This unit is no where near as well kept as other units within the resort. It feels as if the owners have neglected it. Our stay was interrupted several times with maintenance workers as they were discovering a leak from the second bathroom into the unit below. Making the second bathroom inoperable for most of our stay. The unit has no closet space. Just a small dresser in the second bedroom. There is a table on the lanai, but the soffit has seen better days. It appeared to be almost rotten and falling off. All of the furniture is pretty beaten up and dated.All of the towels were stained.And the day before we left the disposal in the kitchen sink went out and the kitchen sink was forever backed up. I made the mistake of booking this unit through a rental company. Unlike all of the other reservations that I have made at this property in prior years. We will be back, but I will be more careful when making the reservation.

Nice unit with an ocean view. Very close to Tunnels Beach where you can walk thru a cave. The restaurant onsite is not operational, but you can get coffee in the morning. (Our unit did not come with a starter supply of coffee as promised).Our favorite thing during our stormy stay was the pool and hot tub. The pool temperature was divine! So warm and amazing. We all loved it. FYI there are stairs to the unit. We appreciated the fans available for white noise as the rain was LOUD.

The location and view can’t be beat. Could use a little updating. We will be back someday!

Can’t beat the view and sound of the ocean to put you to sleep. All the amenities you could need! 10/10 would stay here again!!

Enjoyed sitting on balcony listening to and watching the waves. Close to Tunnels beach and hiking and just up to road from Hanalei

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: If you are looking for a private, beautiful beach, look no more. This is a beautiful spot and steps from the door. If you are looking for an updated, lively resort, this is not the spot. This is an older, quiet condo complex. It is toward the end of the road north of Hanalei. There isn't a lot close by. The unit has an amazing view of the ocean and you can fall asleep to the waves every night. It is older and shows signs of wear. Being this close to the ocean, you should expect that. I do agree with other reviewers, it could use a good deep cleaning. Also, be aware, there is no TV. This can be a good thing though, but if you are wanting to catch a big game, you won't be able to do so here. We enjoyed our stay here and got lots of rest and relaxation. Pool area has been updated and is very nice-complete with covered BBQ and hang out spot. Not sure if we'd stay again, but we are glad we tried this area.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was quiet and comfortable.

Great location by all the best the north shore has to offer. The pool was lovely too. Beach wasn’t suitable for swimming but made for a great walk.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I absolutely loved this property. Our only complaint was one of the blinds wouldn’t pull down. AC would be nice but it’s not a necessity. This is the only place we will stay on Kaua’i, we loved it that much. We drove around to look at other places we thought about staying and were so happy that we chose HCR. Sure there’s other fancier places to stay but we came to Kauai hoping not to get the touristy feeling. HCR was nothing but peaceful and relaxed and we can’t wait to come back! We are already looking to book again for next year.

The whole island is absolutely stunning; the Hanalei Colony was like the icing on a cake. It's in such a beautiful part of the island. I especially appreciated the bed and bedding. I'm probably a bit too picky about pillows, sheets, etc. but all of the bedding in our apartment was VERY comfortable.
