Hanalei Colony Resort F3 - These unique Hanalei vacation rentals are north shore Kauai's only true beachfront resort! 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. 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 Opakapaka Bar and Grill 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.

Beachfront at the Colony
The pictures match the reality -- we sat outside with wine and were watching waves fairly close to the unit.:-) It can be a minimal beach on high tide and the tide comes up to the resort rock boundary. For folks looking for a condo on a beach in the Hanalei area, this unit is a great home base. A small but functional kitchen and although no dishwasher, the starter cleaning supplies -- sponge, brushes, Dawn, made it simple to keep up with the disk washing. A comfortable bed and falling asleep to the waves... Ahhh, wish I was back there again. :-) The WIFI worked great and was specific to this unit. The door lock keycodes were nice as we didn't have to worry about losing a key in the sand or anything. With prior arrangements, the Haena state park shuttle will pick up ticket holders at the resort which was very nice. And we found the restaurant, OPAKAPAKA, next door to the resort, delicious. They can make togo food, then take it to the condo and eat outside overlooking the waves. We had a very relaxing time. :-)

Beautiful location could use slight improvements
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.

Vacation in Wainihia
Accommodations were great, clean, well organized, some recreational beach equipment provided in closet. Amazing sun rises and ever present ocean waves sounds. Check in and out a breeze. Close to everything on North Shore. Great time was had.

Musty/mildew... but everything else was great
First off, great location!!! Peaceful, and the ocean will lull you right to sleep. Great having meals on the lanai, and walking the beach. Tunnels beach is close for great snorkeling. Hiking the Kalalau trail is close. North shore Kauai magic, and I didn't hear a single rooster. But, when we first walked in there was an overwhelming must smell. We opened all the windows and it cleared out mostly, except if your nose was anywhere near the carpet. My allergies were going crazy, and I was in a Benadryl stupor if I had to spend anything over a hour inside the unit, which was unavoidable as a couple days were very rainy. Which leads to another thing I didn't realize - No TV. You don't really need one, unless you're stuck inside from the rain and are tired of reading. All and all, 3 stars - some great, some not so great. If you don't have allergies, and love reading, this is the worlds best spot.

low key ocean front unit
it's a down to earth type place away from the big hotel feel. It was quiet except for a little construction next door. Love the view. Having the restaurant on site was a bonus. The Ke'e shuttle picks up and drops off in the parking lot if you pre arrange it. So convenient. Would definitely come back.

Gorgeous views!
I had a lovely stay at this condo. The ocean views are so beautiful and I loved going to bed to the sounds of the waves. The bed was comfy and the kitchen seemed stocked. There is a closet full of stuff that you can take to the beach. The beach umbrella and chairs and not very sturdy, so if you want a legit beach set up for the day I would recommend you pick some better ones up closer to the airport or rent. This is definitely not a resort experience, so set that expectation before coming, but being right in the beach was great. There is no AC, but this was fine at the end of October. The bathrooms and kitchen are outdated, but not terrible. Property management responded quickly to issues. This is north of where most of the restaurants are, but it’s not a bad drive. Make sure the get reservations for Ke’e beach! It was magical!

Great location, needs some improvements.
This property is situated right on the beachfront. Upon arrival there were approx. 100 flies in two windows. Called the management company and they said they would mention it to housekeeping. I went to the store and purchased insect killer to resolve the issue. No cutting boards. Slid out cutting board in kitchen was filthy. Screen doors on deck do not latch and would blow open in the wind. Front door screen doesn’t latch as well. I had to call to get the internet network and password. Pool area and BBQs were really nice. Take the short drive to the beach parks. The beach in front of the unit can be hazardous. In general, this property needs a remodel.
