About this apartment rental

Hanalei Colony Resort F3 - These unique Hanalei vacation rentals are north shore Kauai's only true beachfront resort, recently voted one of Travel + Leisure's top 20 favorite resorts! This lovely upstairs corner condo has been updated inside and includes a large shady lanai with oceanfront view, all about 30 seconds from the sand. There is one bedroom, furnished with a king bed. For privacy, it can be closed off from the rest of the unit with sliding shoji screens which still allow air flow to keep you cool at night. A second bedroom is furnished with two twin beds, giving you the option to sleep two additional people You can use the room as a living area or office space if it's a working vacation for two. It also has sliding shoji screens for visual privacy. Note that sound will still carry, so if you're streaming a late-night movie, be sure to keep the volume low. The living and dining areas are comfortably furnished and there are dramatic ocean views from each of the large picture windows. You won't mind cooking in the cozy full kitchen which includes everything you need for simple meal preparation. While there are no televisions in the apartments, wifi is provided so you won't be completely cut off from the modern world. (Only as cut off as you wish to be.) Guests at F3 will be able to take advantage of their own secure ultra high speed internet connection thru Spectrum cable.

In order to take full advantage of the Hawaiian trade winds, this unit faces directly oceanfront and offers unobstructed panoramic sea views. When the trade winds die down, multiple high-speed fans provide plenty of breeze as well. Whether enjoying a meal or relaxing on the lanai, or enjoying the spectacular view from inside the unit, staying at the Hanalei Colony Resort F3 condo is an experience few are fortunate to have, and one you will never forget. And because this unit is one of the few at Hanalei Colony Resort equipped with ultra-high-speed, secure internet service, it is also perfect for those who need to mix a little work with their wave-watching!

In addition to Hanalei Colony Resort F3's welcoming interior and views, and the beach just in front, the location offers additional amenities for guests to enjoy including pool, jacuzzi, barbecue grills, and guest laundry room. Walk next door to the Gaia Restaurant or across the parking lot to the Hanalei Day Spa. Just five minutes past the charming town of Hanalei, you'll find that shopping and dining options are conveniently close. It's the perfect Kauai vacation rental for proposals, honeymoons, anniversaries, and other romantic occasions. Whether your plans include a romantic occasion, a working vacation, or something in between, the Hanalei Colony Resort F3 can help ensure you enjoy a never-to-be-forgotten Kauai North Shore vacation!

While wonderfully furnished and right next to the beach, please know that the development was built in simpler times. The units are smaller and have kitchens to match. Some normal amenities will be absent given the space and purposeful attempt to honor the simplicity of earlier times: you won’t find a dishwasher or washing machine in any of the units (there is a laundry room on the premises), and most units have no televisions (though wifi is available for those of us who can't escape work or want to stream our favorite shows).

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned.

This is an upstairs condo so you need to be able to go up and down stairs. There are no elevators.

Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

Note: host requires all guests, whether they book directly or via a third party website, to complete a rental agreement within 3 days of booking.

We loved our stay! The location was amazing and the communication from our host/management was stellar. The unit was perfect for our family of three - 2 parents and a 9 year-old. It would easily accommodate a slightly bigger family comfortably too. A pleasant surprise was finding the on site restaurant back open - we ate there once and enjoyed it. The little cafe had great coffee drinks. We had rainy windy winter weather but watching the ocean from our beachfront spot was beautiful. And the pool and hot tub in the rain were still fun. Easy drive into town and to lovely sightseeing spots. Would definitely return, and have already recommended to another family.

First of, the location and grounds are beautiful. It is ocean front so you can’t beat that and the pool area is wonderful for the kids and kept very clean and beautifully groomed. The online description was not kidding about the trade winds though. The entire time we were there the gusts were 15-30 mph so we we not able to enjoy the lanai or the beach front and had to drive over to hanalei beach to escape the wind. So keep this in mind if you have kids. Also while the vrbo property alludes to it, I’m not sure it’s made clear the property does not have air conditioning. Even with the winds the apartment stays a bit too warm and we had to keep both the front door and back open all night to get ventilation. Lastly the place could have used a bit more sprucing up. All the sheets, pillows and towels seemed very used and musty and need replacing for comfort. While we enjoyed our stays there we’re definitely things that could have made the stay more comfortable.
