1 Hotel Hanalei Bay

1 Hotel Hanalei Bay

8/10 Good
"The property is beautiful but the pool was cold. I don’t know why they don’t heat it. The water at the beach is almost completely brown from the river water that flows in next to it. And it rained every day we were there. Most of the rain isn’t bad. One day it rained hard and we all had to leave the pool and go inside. The disc golf course wasn’t usable because I was told they don’t maintain it. My daughter wanted to drop in the kids club for a hour but that’s only possible two days a week. The gelato and shaved ice shop was closed for renovations (in July really?!?!). The staff was friendly. My son loved the soccer camp. The food was good and the grounds were beautiful, but I won’t be going back."
