This place was truly incredible. The pictures do not do it justice. Where else can you see panoramic, unobstructed views of the mountains, multiple beaches (Hanalei Bay + the resort beach) and the ocean? No high rises or even hotels in your entire field of view. On top of that the place is huge and wonderful w/ little touches like coffee provided. We almost cancelled all of our dinner reservations because you'll never find a better view at sunset. The sun goes down right into the ocean in front of you. Super comfy bed, great furniture, artwork, VERY clean, all the beach gear you could need (even an awesome beach bag to bring snorkel gear, etc...). I could go on but why? No brainer if it's within your price point and you want to stay on the north shore of Kauai (which you definitely should). Your 10 minutes from Hanalei which is such a great town. Awesome food spots like Nourish and the Hanalei restaurants all right there. I could go on and on. I just wish we could have stayed for months instead of a week. We've traveled for 20 years across 5 continents and this is easily one of our favorite places.
