Staying at Joyce's condo in Hanalei area was very comfortable. It's part of a resort that has a pool, pool bar, fitness gym, restaurant, front desk, etc. The best part is the view of Hanalei Bay. It seems like most of the management is done through the resort, so there's not a lot of direct coordination/communication with Joyce but everything was smooth. There's a 10-15min walk to the beach, and Joyce's place has 2 beach chairs and an umbrella which is convenient. We loved that the beach was small and somewhat private. The drive to Hanalei town takes about 10-15 min but can take longer depending on traffic and construction since the roads are 1 lane each way. Hanalei and Princeville (also nearby) are great, relaxing, lush places to vacation.
