Our stay at Hanalei Bay Resort in room 9201 was absolutely fabulous. If you are searching through the myriad accommodation options the north has to offer, look no further. You’ve found paradise!
The room was modern, fresh, and well appointed. We had everything we needed with the mini fridge, cutlery and dishes, pod coffee maker, and microwave. Oh, and the lovely treats our host left for us! The bathroom was well lit and had a good size shower with excellent water pressure.
The view was stunning - unobstructed garden and ocean vistas. The grounds of the resort are very well maintained and all the staff were so welcoming and lovely. The pool was large and inviting - we swam every day, even when it was raining. At night the pool’s ambience was very romantic!
It only took a few minutes to walk to our room from the parking lot, and it was very quick to call a golf cart when needed (which was only when we checked our). In my opinion the Bamboo block of condos our room was in was definitely worth the two-minute walk from the lot!
The resort’s restaurant, Happy Talk, was a lively joint with live music and a gorgeous view. Happy Talk is situated beside the resort’s entrance, which is serene and a lovely spot to sit and wait for your reservations.
The resort’s relatively private beach was a must-see and a perfect spot to watch the sunset.
The resort was very easy to find and was nestled in a lovely golf community. Check-one as a breeze, even at 11pm when we arrived. The resort was an easy 10-15 minute drive to all the best beaches in the north.
We had one tiny issue with the screen door and our host had it fixed immediately and left us champagne for the inconvenience!
We will definitely be staying here next time we come to Hanalei!
