We were extremely pleased with our accommodations. The place was clean and well equipped for the beach - chairs, mats, towels, boogie board. The resort amenities were incredible. We loved the pool - don't miss the over 18 jacuzzi in the back of the pool area. We did not discover it until the second to last day. It was a very quiet part of the pool with large shade umbrellas and a smaller pool that is perfect to go between hot and cold water.
Our room met our needs. It had a small fridge where we could put breakfast and lunch supplies, had a coffee maker, microwave, toaster and dishes. It even had a hot plate. It was also very quiet. It is in the back of the complex and not a lot of traffic in and out.
The location was close to the grocery store in Princeville, Foodland and many fun restaurants. Don't miss dinner at the Happy Talk Lounge at the Hanalei Bay Resort - this was a definite highlight for us! The ambience was amazing and the food was fantastic We took great pictures here.
We recommend Tunnels Beach and Reef Guides for a snorkeling adventure at Anini Beach. You can book the snorkeling through the Cliff Resort Concierge. We were so close to sea turtles and saw an amazing array of fish. Before your visit be sure to book Ke'e beach tickets. We missed out on this as tickets were sold out. We also recommend a day trip to Waimea Canyon - views were spectacular.
Overall, I would highly recommend this airbnb with Nathalie. She was so responsive to questions and provided a fantastic home away from home. Mahalo!
