Hanalei Colony Resort

Peaceful area and apartment was big.

There was an infestation of bugs in our room. I reached out to the manager on the day of departure and they did not reply to us.

Very friendly staff, extremely clean and tastefully decorated room, loved the view out of the balcony. I especially the shuttle bus that takes you into town and nearby beaches / hikes.

Location, relaxed atmosphere, good coffee shop loved the furniture and sliding shutters in B2

Old Hawaii feel

We’ve stayed at Hanalei Colony Resort several times simply because we love it. It’s low key and purposely unplugged; there are no tv’s in the rooms nor air conditioning. Air conditioning is unnecessary because the resort is right on the ocean and the ocean breezes keep the rooms cool and comfortable. The location is incredible, somewhat remote, and right on the ocean. We’re staying in a premium ocean front unit and it’s steps from the ocean. We open the lanai doors and the ocean breeze and sounds literally fill our senses. The resort’s atmosphere is low key; there’s no corporate feel since it feels like family that you actually like. The rooms are well-appointed with fully stocked kitchens. There’s also a newly opened restaurant next door with great food. Quite simply, staying at the Hanalei Colony Resort is a great, and memorable vacation experience.

On the website, HCR references "unspoiled and unplugged". It's so true! If you're looking for something off the beaten path yet in the epicenter of Hanalei's beauty, this "resort" is for you. With kitchenettes, you can make breakfasts and a few others meals at your place, or take 10-12 minutes to drive to town for the amazing dining there. The overall experience is an A+ if you're looking to really decompress. And bring snorkel equipment for the nearby Tunnels beach.
