HBR is a 5 Star Resort and is widely regarded as one of the nicest places to stay on Kauai. 8231 is ideally situated in the Plumeria building on the "point" of this 22 acre Resort giving you spectacular views! This Hotel Room has some of the best views in all of Kauai. Unobstructed views of Hanalei Bay and a panoramic view of 4000 ft. mountains laced with waterfalls are yours when you look out or step out onto the private lanai. One of the rare unobstructed views left on Kauai. From the lanai you overlook a protected bird sanctuary while watching and listening to the white water surf of Hanalei Bay.
This unit has a King Size Tropical Canopy Bed with a full Master Bath and private Lanai that sleeps 2.
This condo is a top floor unit, which gives you better views, improved security, vaulted ceilings for a much larger feel, and you don't have the noise of people above you. However, this is one of the few 2 story buildings on the property; most are 3 stories, so you don't have to climb 2 sets of stairs every time you enter or leave. There are only 6 steps to reach the front door.
Furnished in authentic Pacific-style with Hawaiiana and Polynesian antiques from around the world - including China, Thailand, the Philippines, Bali, and Burma - this beautiful condo has an amazing collection of old Hawaii touches. The bedroom has a romantic king sized canopy bed. The condo has a mini fridge and a coffee maker. There is also an outdoor kitchen with gas grills directly adjacent to our building at the lower pool. The unit has a new flat screen TV with DVD, and the entire unit has wireless internet access. Laundry facilities are about a 1 minute walk from the condo. There is a daily resort fee of $22 per night, parking fees of $17 per night, and a 1 time check in fee of $50. This is paid directly to the Resort when you check out....

The condo was very nice and cozy and the view was absolutely stunning! It was so nice being able to hear the ocean at night then wake up to the birds singing in the garden below. I loved it and would definitely go back.

It was an amazing place to vacation. The view is magnificent! The bed was very comfortable and the service was great. The entire process was super easy. I never corresponded with the owner, there wasn't a need everything was so seamless.

We had the best time at Hanalei Bay Resort. Our host was timely and attentive when we needed some specific help with check-in. The room was gorgeous and clean. I loved the vaulted ceilings & canopy bed. The bed was also comfortable & sheets felt fresh. The view was even better than the pictures - absolutely stunning! My only suggestion is some new bathroom rugs but overall we were incredibly pleased with our stay and would love to return as soon as possible. 10/10

This room looked bigger in pictures. I wouldn’t say the view is “unobstructed”. TV wasn’t working and when you call the front desk they instruct you to call property owner. Texted property owner but no response. Furtherest building from the main parking lot so expect to walk a long ways. If you call for cart service expect to wait more than 15 minutes. We’ve stayed at other rooms at Hanalei Bay Resort before, this one was the most dated.

Hanalei Bay Resort is a very nice place to stay, if you are ok with the hills. There are the carts but it can be a wait sometimes, especially to & from the very hilly beach path.
All resort costs are out of date. All higher than posted-parking, resort fee, bunch of taxes.
The paint inside the unit needs to be redone badly.
The pillows are huge.
Tub needs resurfacing again or new tub!
A throw rug might be good.
Instructions on how to work the remote for the A/C so you don't freeze on a cold rainy night.
An extra blanket to go with the thin bedspread provided. It would make sense to rehang the tv on the wall instead of standing it on the table - taking up precious room space.
The items listed and pictured as being provided inside the unit are outdated as most aren't there. It's usually something in it's, but not always (no pan).
Had to contact owner and he's on EST he wasn't happy when we re-asked 2 hours later. Longer than we've waited anywhere else.
Owner had prop manager come to handle issues. She was great. No phone contact allowed.
The property is great. The view is nice down into H Bay.
A pizza restaurant is on site and open in the evening.
A restaurant with a bar that opens for happy hour with music later in the evening. good food.
small store on site where you can buy coffee and some small items.
You have to wear a wrist band while on property.
2 pools and a hot tub, yard games, firepits, tennis courts - saw some people trying to play pickle ball on them.

We love Hanalei Bay Resort and have been multiple times. The property is wonderful for families, and we enjoyed the activities including fish feeding, bingo, and yoga.
While the views in this unit are great, it would benefit from some basic improvements/attention. In particular it did not seem clean, as evidenced by sheets that smelt stale, grease/film in the bathroom, and multiple lizard/cockroach sightings. There are multiple chips/breakage in the bathroom tiles. The owner was responsive when we asked for a new shower curtain liner and a potential mid-week cleaning (we decided to do that ourselves d/t the cost).
We will definitely return to this resort, however we will consider other units first.

We paid for a week upfront and I was surprised at checkout when they charged me $380 for resort fees and taxes. This should have been explained upfront.
The place was wonderful though. Just be prepared for daily fees of $17 for parking, $22 resort fees, 4.71% general tax and 13.25% accommodation tax… all daily.

We had a wonderful time! Room is a little dated but the views make up for it. The resort is beautiful and the views are absolutely amazing. Very nice area. Very quiet and relaxing.

Wonderful room and view, resort is fantastic and staff is very helpful. One thing I would keep in mind is that there is a connecting room so you can hear the neighboring guests pretty clearly. Other than that everything was perfect!

I rented 8231 as an adjunct to 8232. Both units are impeccably and tastefully furnished with modern appliances. The unit lives true and exceeds the beauty of the listing pictures. One of my guests and I stayed in another unit previously that had a bigger view of the ocean, and we both agreed that 8232/8231 would be our first choice moving forward. The view coupled with the interior and lanai furnishings are top notch.

I had a wonderful experience. The room has a beautiful view, a comfortable bed, a small amount of dining supplies, plates, silverware, knives etc, and a couple of portable mixers(I used to make my fruit smoothie in the morning. The walk to the room meanders through the HBR property for sure, but I didn't mind at all. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
