Beach Hotels in Hanalei

Best holiday ever Must visit this hotel A place you never forget

Very kitschy mid century modern. central to so much beauty and tourist commerce. free bikes and snorkel gear for guests. farmer’s market of freshness a stones throw. ocean front. toes in the sand restaurant. we loved it

Very easy to drive or cycle to everything. Fantastic welcome on arrival and every staff member acknowledges you as they pass. Huge thanks to Micah, Kayla and Chance. Great facilities! The beach is a bit rough, but you can easily cycle or drive to great swimming places. Would definitely stay again.

Unit was spotless and perfect for my needs.

What a fabulous low-key hotel. Our room with two queen beds and ocean view was huge. So clean. Balcony doors to lawn. Microwave and mini fridge. Ocean is much closer than the impression that I got from the photos. The very busy walkway that goes about four miles along the shore is right out front of the hotel. Bikes are available to borrow. Loved the gorgeous - but not heated - swimming pool with a waterfall and natural plants. What a lovely relaxed feel. Manager helped patch together a couple reservations I made into a smooth plan. Appreciated the somewhat more affordability that it accorded in comparison to the other outrageously priced hotels with their taxes and resort fees.

Fantastic friendly staff. Convenient access to airport and in the middle for sightseeing north shore one day and south shore another.

Fantastic location and, with the property itself undergoing repairs and renovation, it would be perfect.

Beautiful, quiet location near the end of the road. Great view of ocean, great apartment accommodations. Nice listening to the ocean at night.

Hanalei Colony Resort is the most wonderful place. Situated on the north shore of Kauai it is just a walking distance away from the Nepali coast which is just one of the most beautiful places in the world. This is where we were heading for a hike so I warmly recommend this resort for anyone who loves adventure and wants to experience the true beauty of Kauai (just remember to reserve your entrance to the hiking trail area well in advance). However, even though you are not looking for adventure, you can still just decide to take a spontaneous stroll westward along several beautiful and famous beaches, which are just minutes or at the most an hour walking distance away. Or, you can decide to take a drive east and access some of the beaches that might be a bit less easily accessible, including some short but sometimes difficult trails, but believe me it’s worth the trouble. Even if you are not planning to hike, I’d say this resort is still one of the best options for a stay in Kauai. Hanalei, in my opinion really cosy and the most picturesque town on the island, is just a short drive away, actually you could spend a whole week just enjoying being here (Haena and Hanalei) without exploring the rest of the island. However, since there is so much more to see on Kauai, the north shore and in particular Hanalei Colony Resort, requires a bit long drive to the canyon area for instance which is only accessible from the south. So, concluding, I highly recommend this particular resort independent of your primary purpose. I visited 13 years ago, I have stayed both on the north and the south shore, and I simply fell in love with this particular place, its simplicity yet the immense sense of luxury of staying so close to this dramatic and beautiful nature with the ocean, beaches and the mountains. I hope to return some day despite the very long journey across half the globe. Already looking forward to my third stay in Hanalei Colony Resort!
