Absolutely gorgeous property, amazing view, incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. Highly recommend for a low-key, island-vibe retreat. Provides shuttle service to town, any restaurants to choose from.

Perfect stay on the beach
Fantastic. I can’t imagine a better place to stay on Kauai. Our room could not have been closer to the ocean or had a better view. It was tranquil, peaceful, and perfect for our getaway.

Our room got upgraded to the ocean view room because it was our anniversary, and it was absolutely amazing! I love waking up to the sound of waves and the view of the ocean, and the room itself was so big and spacious, and it included its own kitchen. The front desk people were also so helpful and recommended a lot of attractions to us, which I absolutely appreciate. I would definitely come back here if I were coming back to visit Kauai.

A beautiful location and property. Wonderful pool area and amazing beachfront experience. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean at the beach was fantastic. They have a shuttle service that is included in your stay, making it very easy to drink responsibly in town and come back safely. Or go to one of the nearby beaches where parking is nearly impossible. The room was homey, well supplied with the basics, includes beach chairs and umbrella, and has great airflow. However, we did encounter massive cockroaches (2-3 inches long approximately) near the kitchen area. We know animals are a part of the experience when visiting the garden isle. The geckos seen on the balcony were fun. And the kittens on the property were very cute. Another animal experience were the American bullfrogs that cover the area. The noise they make at night is loud and constant. A sound similar to a washing machine running in the next room. It’s impractical to close the windows and doors because of the weather, so bring earplugs. There were multiple power outages at the resort during our stay, luckily, we were either just about to leave or it happened at night when we were asleep, so it didn’t affect us too much. The service was great, when available. The office is not open at night, and sometimes is not open during posted hours. Although everyone was very accommodating, very welcoming, and super friendly. If you’re looking to be in nature and get away, this is the right place.

We stayed at the Hanalei Colony Resort and loved every minute of it. We loved how perfect my placed on the North Shore it is, surrounded by picturesque views pretty much anywhere you look. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially Lei who checked us in. She’s amazing. Really loved our trip and plan on going back.

The staff and property are amazing, but the location ended up being the best part. Kauai is beautiful everywhere, but the north shore area around HCR really takes the cake! Great, quiet beaches and a variety of things to do close by (but HCR is also far enough away that you don't feel like you're in a heavy tourism area). The shuttle service makes getting around easy but the staff also has good local knowledge/tips if you want to drive yourself. Don't think we'll stay anywhere else on Kauai now that we've found this gem.

Old Hawaii feel @ Hanalei Colony
Wonderful views across the two bays including Hanalei Bay. Lanai so we could enjoy the fresh air. This is real Hawaii not the big resorts. Provided beach chairs & umbrella for our outings. Small, quaint and quiet.

Staff and property are perfect for the area. The room was clean with a well equipped kitchen. The resort is a bit secluded from the already small secluded town of Hanalei. They do offer a shuttle service into town and back if needed. We loved our experience there and would stay at the resort again.

I loved staying at HCR! I was staying in Kauai for 10 days, and decided to stay there for 3 days, and the other 7 elsewhere, but in hindsight I wished I had stayed at HCR for 7 and the other for 3. It's a really cool little property with condos next to a primo beach. Staff is super-friendly and helpful. The property is gorgeous. I love that it had a really good restaurant and coffee shop on premise, and then you're a short drive away from a picturesque little town where there are a lot more amenities. In your condo you get a full kitchen, nice bathroom, and if you are on the 2nd floor you get a great little porch. I found it so relaxing there, and would definitely stay there again next time I'm in Kauai.

This is a unique property near the end of the road on the north end. The units are not two room. They are not all equal, my family was on site, some rooms have two baths, mine had one, none have two rooms, just two sleeping spaces in a studio layout. it's a nice property near the beach. The person who checked me in was rude regarding my use of Expedia to book. Overall a strange place.

Great Spot for an 'Away from It All Retreat'
This is a very well-maintained property at a beautiful location. The interior decoration is 'old school.' The inside arrangement of the unit we stayed in included a private bedroom, another sitting room that could be used as a separate single bedroom, a studio couch in the living room, and two full baths (one shower was a bit small). This was all very well done and provided good privacy with sliding screens. The Hollywood kitchen is well equipped. Some visitors will be put off by the lack of radio/television/stereo and air conditioning. However, air conditioning is certainly not necessary here in the winter months. Also note that the beach, while nice to sit on and look at, is not swimmable. There are great beaches nearby. The community pool is brand new and very well done, if a bit small. The fact that there is a restaurant/bar on-property is convenient. Seniors, please note that steep stairs are needed to get to the upper units. This is not convenient especially if you are carrying luggage, groceries, etc. Seniors may wish to avoid staying in the upper units. Bring books, Kindles, tablets, and MP3s with your music because, as mentioned, there are no entertainment devices in the units. Internet is available.

The property is great. The shuttle driver was excellent in every way. The coffee shop folks were great. Where they fall down is check in / office staff. The checkin/office staff isn't very welcoming at all, almost as if they are doing you a favor when you ask about things. When you are on vacation in a lovely area, the first impression is the checkin/admin folks....and these ladies were just not great.
