This unit is amazing. It was exactly as advertised. The sunsets though, just spectacular from the lanai. Can’t wait to come back!

Pros: best views, no obstructions from Hanalei Bay view. Nice resort, modern and clean. Nice amenities. Cons: no blackout curtains, noise coming from apartment next door. Overall, I loved this place and will definitely recommend it to friends and family visiting Kauai.

This condo truly felt so luxurious, and was above and beyond our expectations. The condo is part of a larger resort, so we had access to the resort's pool, tennis courts, beach, and restaurant. You could come here for a week and never leave the resort if that is what you wanted! Also, the view from the balcony cannot be beat. We sat every morning and night out there looking at the water, enjoying either coffee or a drink. 10/10 recommend, this place is awesome.

Best location on the Hanalei Bay Resort Property! 180 degree ocean views.

This place is truly a jewel. Located in the most beautiful part of the island, this condo has been recently updated and has absolutely amazing views of Hanalei Bay!

We relaxed.

Private-feeling, top floor corner unit with epic views of Hanalei Bay. I spent hours on the lanai just watching the weather change and the daily parade of rainbows!

We loved this for our honeymoon and I can't wait to stay here again. Only issue is that there's very little noise protection from the adjoining room so you can hear your neighbors.

We loved our stay and will miss it!

**SHARED UNIT** This is a bedroom that you share with whoever rents the condo attached to the bedroom. This wasn't specified when booking. If it was, I wouldn't have ever booked this unit. The couple sharing the condo part were extremely loud for our stay. The host doesn't care at all. I booked this for my wifes birthday and it was the worst decision. Please be advised that if you're looking for a quiet getaway, I hope you don't have anyone booking the condo while you're in the bedroom! At least change it in your listing that you're renting a room in the condo. False advertising by far! We feel scammed, and I'm writing this so no one has to feel the way we feel. Please feel free to email me for any further questions I can answer for you before you spend thousands to be disappointed. [email protected]

Loved the apartment. Can be noisy if there are neighbors. Would be awesome to have microwave.

This property is the perfect location - loved the view from the room, the resort was lovely, and it’s only a 10-15 minute drive into Hanalei Bay for great food. There are bellman that will give you a ride anywhere you would like to go on the property, including the beach and two pools. Seth was easy to communicate with, and the unit had everything I needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Loved our experience from reservation to check-in to check-out!!! Great service, accurate listing, clean unit that has everything you need (if eating out & site seeing are your focus) and wonderful views all day long.

Lovely stay! Can hear neighbor noise a little but property and views are totally worth the minor noise.

I will be dreaming about waking up in this room every single day until we have the opportunity to come back. The view is breathtaking. The resort is beautiful. The room is modern and perfect in every way.

We had a lovely time staying at this property. It's a cozy, well decorated, studio located on a great resort. The view alone was enough to keep us happy during our stay (we had a rainbow our first morning!), but the comfortable bed, modern interior, and prime beach access were huge plus'. The close proximity (~10 min drive) to downtown Hanalei was perfect for local cuisine and culture. Only negative was hearing your neighbor from time to time. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and hope others will too!

This was our first time visiting Kauai and we wanted to start our trip in the lush North side of the island in a place that felt special, romantic and a bit private. Seth’s property absolutely blew our expectations out of the water. The pictures on the site do not do this place justice. This is absolute magic. You can tell how much hard work went into creating this dreamy, light-filled sanctuary. The check in process was seamless and the Hanalei Bay Resort staff treated us like royalty. The grounds were immaculate and better than anything we could have expected. The views from the room were out of this world and with just a short walk down a paved trail, you are at a private sandy beach nestled in a cove before the bay. Morning coffee on the lanai, all our essentials fit in the mini fridge and perfectly situated mini bar, we slept amazingly in the AC and couldn’t get over that view. This place will always be special to us as we found out we’re expecting our first baby on our last morning here!! No words to describe how grateful we were to stay here and we hope to have the chance to return to make more memories. Thank you, Seth!

My wife and I had an amazing stay at this property in Princeville. Clean room, attentive staff, beautiful views. Easy walk to Hanalei Bay via the beach. Highly recommended!

The property is very nice. The view from the room is amazing. Only downfall I noticed was you can hear the neighbors clearly as the washed dishes and showered constantly. I would stay hear again.

Beautiful. The view posted on the live cam from the resort is the view from our room. Simply gorgeous. The room is nicely appointed and comfortable. Close to trail to beach but private end unit in the resort itself. We would come back in a heartbeat!

We loved our time here! The view from the room is absolutely gorgeous! Would definitely stay again. Close to Hanalei Bay and other northern attractions. The room was clean and modern. Other reviews are true, the walk to the private beach is quite a jaunt. As well as to the parking lot. They do have bellhops and golf carts to help you get around, so bring some cash for tips. Pool and restaurant was great. If you’re looking for a VRBO that you’re able to cook meals in, this is not for you.

We had an amazing stay and are so sad to leave! The view is absolutely breathtaking and the unit is renovated and is beautiful inside. Seth was great to work with and responded within minutes to any questions. We will be back and look forwarding to staying at this property again.

Great room! Clean, beautiful and comfortable. The views are incredible. It seems like there have been a few updates since past reviews. There is a nice large coffee table on the balcony. There was cream, sugar & keurig cups as well as a one cup French press and kettle if you bring your own coffee. The mini fridge is a good size and there were nice dishes, glasses etc... The only suggestions I have would be to add a shower curtain as the floor gets really wet and install a thicker privacy door between the units. (If possible) The door was definitely not sound proof or smell proof. We could smell everything the main unit was cooking.

We booked our stay for two nights but ultimately checked out a day early given a few problems we had with the room, which I will describe later. Pros: This property was clean and you could tell it was newly renovated. Check in was very easy and the bellhop will drive you and your luggage down to the room; not difficult at all so ignore other reviews that complained. Will note it’s a long (5 min) walk if someone in your group has mobility issues. The balcony has a great view of the beach and mountains, but it’s definitely very buggy out there so bring repellent (there was none provided in room). Also, the property manager is very responsive. Cons: We were on our honeymoon and were expecting this to be a private room. There is a connecting door to another unit that must be made out of paper because you can hear every word of what is said in the other room. For example, the other unit was watching Moana until midnight and the noise (and light that seeps through the shared door) kept us up. Also, the front door isn’t sealed so bugs will walk under the door. We ended up putting our bath towels under the front and shared doors to stop the bugs / noise coming through but that didn’t help much. Unrelated to the property, but if you plan to go to Hanalei there is only a single road that takes you there from the VRBO. This road shuts down for hours at a time and if you end up on the wrong side of the road you are just out of luck. This is obvious to locals but as visitors it would’ve been nice to be given this heads up from the manager given the town is only 10-15 min drive. Ultimately - book this room if you aren’t bothered by noise / light coming from other rooms and don’t mind a few bugs. I’ve lived in NYC for several years and have never experienced thinner walls than what’s in this apartment (given the shared door). We were expecting more privacy / not to be woken by neighboring children so we left a day early, no refund.

This 9306 unit is pretty much as advertised. No elevator access, no microwave, no cream or sugar for the "free" coffee. It did have a pretty sweet view of Hanalei Bay. I wouldn't agree to its claim of "ocean front" or "beach" as the stroll to the beach is a couple hundred yards down a steep path. It also is the closest unit to the construction ongoing at the adjacent property previously known as the Princeville Resort. It is also the likely the furthest unit from the parking lot on the other side of the property. Fortunately they do provide porters with a golf cart to move luggage (and assist with trips to the beach). Parking is first come, first serve. Fortunately for the property it is accessible for Lihue without having to go through the partial road closure near the Hanalei bridge. Be very aware of the road closure schedule if you plan to go to or west of Hanalei. The unit would definitely benefit from a small microwave, outdoor lighting on the balcony, and a small table on the balcony to set your coffee or wine. Lastly, the unit did have a distinctly unpleasant smell. It was noticeable each time we returned but seem to dissipate fairly quickly when we opened the doors and turned on the fans to air out the place. Seth was very helpful and responsive to all my questions.

What a beautiful location! We were thoroughly pleased. The unit is very up to date. There is quite a bit of a long walk from the parking area to the unit. There are bellhops available to help, but it definitely adds some time overhead if you're coming and going a lot.
