Hanalei Bay Resort Ocean Front! Unobstructed Ocean & Moountain View 8231

HBR is a 5 Star Resort and is widely regarded as one of the nicest places to stay on Kauai. 8231 is ideally situated in the Plumeria building on the "point" of this 22 acre Resort giving you spectacular views! This Hotel Room has some of the best views in all of Kauai. Unobstructed views of Hanalei Bay and a panoramic view of 4000 ft. mountains laced with waterfalls are yours when you look out or step out onto the private lanai. One of the rare unobstructed views left on Kauai. From the lanai you overlook a protected bird sanctuary while watching and listening to the white water surf of Hanalei Bay.

This unit has a King Size Tropical Canopy Bed with a full Master Bath and private Lanai that sleeps 2.

This condo is a top floor unit, which gives you better views, improved security, vaulted ceilings for a much larger feel, and you don't have the noise of people above you. However, this is one of the few 2 story buildings on the property; most are 3 stories, so you don't have to climb 2 sets of stairs every time you enter or leave. There are only 6 steps to reach the front door.

Furnished in authentic Pacific-style with Hawaiiana and Polynesian antiques from around the world - including China, Thailand, the Philippines, Bali, and Burma - this beautiful condo has an amazing collection of old Hawaii touches. The bedroom has a romantic king sized canopy bed. The condo has a mini fridge and a coffee maker. There is also an outdoor kitchen with gas grills directly adjacent to our building at the lower pool. The unit has a new flat screen TV with DVD, and the entire unit has wireless internet access. Laundry facilities are about a 1 minute walk from the condo. There is a daily resort fee of $22 per night, parking fees of $17 per night, and a 1 time check in fee of $50. This is paid directly to the Resort when you check out.

Amazing Stay
We had the best time at Hanalei Bay Resort. Our host was timely and attentive when we needed some specific help with check-in. The room was gorgeous and clean. I loved the vaulted ceilings & canopy bed. The bed was also comfortable & sheets felt fresh. The view was even better than the pictures - absolutely stunning! My only suggestion is some new bathroom rugs but overall we were incredibly pleased with our stay and would love to return as soon as possible. 10/10

Dated Room
This room looked bigger in pictures. I wouldn’t say the view is “unobstructed”. TV wasn’t working and when you call the front desk they instruct you to call property owner. Texted property owner but no response. Furtherest building from the main parking lot so expect to walk a long ways. If you call for cart service expect to wait more than 15 minutes. We’ve stayed at other rooms at Hanalei Bay Resort before, this one was the most dated.

Listing needs updating and/or the unit does
Hanalei Bay Resort is a very nice place to stay, if you are ok with the hills. There are the carts but it can be a wait sometimes, especially to & from the very hilly beach path. All resort costs are out of date. All higher than posted-parking, resort fee, bunch of taxes. The paint inside the unit needs to be redone badly. The pillows are huge. Tub needs resurfacing again or new tub! A throw rug might be good. Instructions on how to work the remote for the A/C so you don't freeze on a cold rainy night. An extra blanket to go with the thin bedspread provided. It would make sense to rehang the tv on the wall instead of standing it on the table - taking up precious room space. The items listed and pictured as being provided inside the unit are outdated as most aren't there. It's usually something in it's, but not always (no pan). Had to contact owner and he's on EST he wasn't happy when we re-asked 2 hours later. Longer than we've waited anywhere else. Owner had prop manager come to handle issues. She was great. No phone contact allowed. The property is great. The view is nice down into H Bay. A pizza restaurant is on site and open in the evening. A restaurant with a bar that opens for happy hour with music later in the evening. good food. small store on site where you can buy coffee and some small items. You have to wear a wrist band while on property. 2 pools and a hot tub, yard games, firepits, tennis courts - saw some people trying to play pickle ball on them.

Beautiful Resort - Unit Needs Attention
We love Hanalei Bay Resort and have been multiple times. The property is wonderful for families, and we enjoyed the activities including fish feeding, bingo, and yoga. While the views in this unit are great, it would benefit from some basic improvements/attention. In particular it did not seem clean, as evidenced by sheets that smelt stale, grease/film in the bathroom, and multiple lizard/cockroach sightings. There are multiple chips/breakage in the bathroom tiles. The owner was responsive when we asked for a new shower curtain liner and a potential mid-week cleaning (we decided to do that ourselves d/t the cost). We will definitely return to this resort, however we will consider other units first.

Beautiful place but we were charged almost $400 for taxes and resort fees upon checkout
We paid for a week upfront and I was surprised at checkout when they charged me $380 for resort fees and taxes. This should have been explained upfront. The place was wonderful though. Just be prepared for daily fees of $17 for parking, $22 resort fees, 4.71% general tax and 13.25% accommodation tax… all daily.

Great place at the HBR
I had a wonderful experience. The room has a beautiful view, a comfortable bed, a small amount of dining supplies, plates, silverware, knives etc, and a couple of portable mixers(I used to make my fruit smoothie in the morning. The walk to the room meanders through the HBR property for sure, but I didn't mind at all. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Hills everywhere
Was not warned of hilly landscape. Was hard for me. Had to get a golf cart shuttle and felt obligated to tip every time. Even the beach that was advertised as being close to was up a huge hill, then down a huge hill. No comfortable furniture inside or out. Even beach chairs were falling apart. No tub plug. Drain full of hair. The place needs less furniture, comfortable chairs, and a good sprucing up.

Beautiful resort
Small ‘hotel room’ with dorm-size frig and coffee maker. Bed was very comfortable. No space in room for suitcases or for one than one person to sit other than at small dining table. But location is great and view from lanai is gorgeous. An adequate room and a good value, so recommended.

Great stay hanalei
We loved our room. The view was a peak of the bay and the left side if Bali Hai. We couldnt see the tip of it due to a wall next to us. We loved the birds chirping. No buildings in front of us. The unit is a small studio, with fridge, microwave and coffee pot only, but really great. Its a good walk down the hill from the parking lot. Comfy bed. A little dated, but also reasonable price for what you get.

MOTEL ROOM with AMAZING VIEW
If you consider this a motel room and NOT a condo, you'll be fine. It really doesn't lend itself to cooking and doing dishes, but if you just need a microwave to heat something, there's one in the closet. There's a coffee maker, but only one coffee mug. The on-site dining doesn't open until 3:00 p.m., but there's a small refrigerator (also in the closet) for your milk if you want cereal for breakfast. The bed was comfortable and there was no problem with noise. There were plenty of towels, but two rolls of toilet paper wasn't sufficient for our ten nights! The room needs some attention.... such as, fresh paint, repair the bathroom fan, a plug for the bathtub, replace burned out lightbulbs, etc. but otherwise.... it's an AMAZING location with a great view on well-maintained, beautiful grounds with a pathway to a spectacular beach.

Beautiful views!
My daughter and I had a wonderful stay. The property grounds are absolutely beyond gorgeous. We enjoyed the view from the balcony. The room was very clean. If you have mobility issues, the rental is located at the far side of the property and the property has some hills, but you can request a ride in a golf cart to the unit. From the room you can also request a golf cart to pick you up and help with luggage or bring you to the parking lot. We do not have mobility issues and we throughly enjoyed the walks around the property. There are beautiful views in every direction you look. The pool was perfect and they served free rootbeer floats. The beach was beautiful. The pizza from the restaurant on property was some of the best pizza I have ever eaten. We ordered pizza and ate it at the pool. There were beach chairs on the balcony that can be used at the beach. We have zero complaints about our stay. Everything was wonderful. My only suggestion is to possibly bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper and it is your first time on the island. The roosters crow pretty early in the mornings, but that's absolutely normal no matter where you stay. Also, the curtains were not blackout, so bring an eye mask if you are light sensitive. I bring those two things with me everywhere anyway, so I had zero issues. My young adult daughter is a heavier sleeper, and did not use either and she slept great. Overall, we enjoyed it so much that we will definitely stay here again. Thank you!

We had 2 cockroaches and an unidentified bug. Room has to much furniture and tv location is terrible. Walls need touch up. Room needs upgrading. View was good but over all disappointed. When we contacted steve he said "that is the tropics. He said the resort sprays for insects, the resort saids it the owner job. Customer has to live with it during their stay. It is these things that sour me on VRBO's.
