Hanalei Bay Resort is absolutely beautiful. I've been traveling to Hawaii for 37 years. and HBR just feels like what Hawaii is and was-the craftmanship of the resort, the architecture, the landscaping, the pool area....just such a beautiful Polynesian vibe. The ladies at the check in desk showed so much aloha spirt, and were just beautiful souls. The sunset at the beach below, just stunning. The unit was well maintained, great location to restaurant, and had everything we needed. Neil gave us great advice on local beaches, and the communication was great!! The only down side we saw was parking. That was always a juggle when we got back, but the location and beauty of the resort was worth it!!!!
