Hanalei Colony Resort | A Hanalei Beach Rental (2bd 2ba, sleeps up to 4 people)

Oceanfront Retreat with Incredible Views Just 90 Seconds from the Beach

Description
Hanalei Colony Resort K4 is a cute and intimate retreat in an off-the-beaten-path location on Kauai's far North Shore, perfect for romantic getaways and escaping the crowds! The sunny and cheerful condo has two bedrooms, with the option to use the second bedroom as a work space or kids bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and an open living and dining area that gets tons of natural light in addition to the killer ocean views. There's also a large, shady lanai with seating for 2 to enjoy the sights and sounds of the Pacific. Please note that the bedrooms are separated from the main living space via sliding shoji screens; while the screens offer visual privacy, they are by no means soundproof.

The amenities at Hanalei Colony Resort make this the perfect spot for a slow-paced, laidback vacation. Walk just a few steps and you're right on a warm, sandy beach away from any crowds! Or, spend a day by the pool and hot tub, lounging in the sun and grilling in the outdoor kitchen. If you need to truly unwind and pamper yourself, the Hanalei Day Spa is just across the parking lot and offers some incredible services (can you say beachside couple's massage?). You'll also find the Opakapaka grill & bar on site for some tasty seaside bites, as well as the Na Pali Art Gallery & Coffee Shop where you can peruse some beautiful art while enjoying a morning brew. Additionally, there is an on site coin-operated laundry room, so be sure to bring some quarters! (the front office can usually make change if you don't have any)

For those of us that like to get out and about, Hanalei Colony Resort K4 is still conveniently close to many main attractions. Take a quick 15 minute drive and you're in the heart of Hanalei town, with all its charming boutiques, restaurants, and cafes. Grab a bite to eat or a shave ice before heading to the iconic beaches of Hanalei Bay for the day. Tunnels Beach, perfect for snorkeling, is only 3 minutes away driving, or 20 minutes on foot if you prefer to walk. Ha'ena Beach is just another 3 minutes down the road, and is an absolute hidden gem with pristine waters and some of the best sunsets in the world. You're also just 10 minutes away from the Limahuli Garden & Preserve, which offers an introduction into native Hawaiian culture and its ties to the natural landscape against a backdrop of dramatic mountains and the Pacific Ocean. For any basic grocery needs, as well as delicious sandwiches, acai bowls, coffee, and shave ice, head 3 minutes down the road to the Wainiha Country Market. You'll also find a lovely selection of local goodies you won't be able to resist.

Please note that Hanalei Colony Resort was built in simpler times in a more remote location. The resort was designed with the untouched environment as the main draw, and does not offer all the luxuries of modern resorts. There is no dishwasher and no TV in the unit (although there is Wi-Fi), and it takes longer to access other parts of the island. Drive time to Princeville and Kilauea is roughly 30 minutes, to the East Side (where the airport is) is 70 minutes, and to the South Shore is over 90 minutes. We highly recommend renting a car, as third party guests are unfortunately NOT able to use the resort shuttle services. We do, however, encourage guests to take advantage of the North Shore Shuttle, which services locations such as the Wainiha Country Market, Limahuli Gardens, and Ha'ena State Park. The shuttle will pick you up in the parking lot of Hanalei Colony Resort (super convenient!), and advance reservations are required.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned, however there are ceiling fans in each space and additional tower fans to help with air flow.

This is an upstairs unit. You must be able to go up and down 2.5 flights of stairs (roughly 25 steps) to access the unit. 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.

Book a natal chart reading with master astrologer Larry Arrington.

Larry says "Your natal chart is yours forever. Through it, we can look at resonant themes, archetypes, and energies unique to you. It’s home base, a gorgeous portrait of your gifts, challenges, and strengths that you can return to over the course of your life. At the end of the session, we will look at the coming months."

“The amount of knowledge that Larry holds about so many aspects of astrology is boggling. The creative and intuitive - and wise and funny - ways she transmits this information makes for a truly transformative experience! I left my reading with such a profound understanding of my own recent life and history, and a deepened understanding of my sense of self. Larry's readings are a gift, I can't recommend them enough!”

2x tickets LA Dance Project at The Wallis Theatre (Oct 23, 24, or 25) in Los Angeles, as well as pre-show access to the Founder's Room. https://thewallis.org/show-details/la-dance-project-gems

Discover a ballet triptych by Benjamin Millepied celebrating the unity of dance, music, and visual art.

Commissioned by Van Cleef & Arpels, this trilogy of contemporary ballets—Reflections (2013), Hearts & Arrows (2014), and On the Other Side (2016)—draws inspiration from the symbolic and emotional resonance of precious stones. Each work offers a distinct world where movement, music, and design converge to reveal something luminous and intimate. 

Presented together for the first time in the U.S. by the Wallis Center for the Performing Arts and L.A. Dance Project, the triptych marks the culmination of a creative journey spanning over a decade.

Reflections is a meditation on longing—sensual, sharp-edged, and fleeting. Set to David Lang’s haunting score and framed by Barbara Kruger’s bold visual language, the ballet explores the tension between presence and absence, desire and memory. 

Hearts & Arrows pulses with crystalline energy, carried by the precise, layered rhythms of Philip Glass. Liam Gillick’s sculptural design of shifting light and shadow becomes a silent partner to the choreography, where emotion takes on an architectural clarity.

On the Other Side is a deeply human work—intimate, emotional, and communal. Set to a suite of piano études by Glass and enveloped by Mark Bradford’s immersive, painterly set, the ballet becomes a portrait of togetherness, tracing the bonds between individuals and the quiet strength of collective experience

Rituals for Change: 90 minutes
Facing a transition personally or professionally? Rituals can help you honor, process, grieve, celebrate (if applicable), and acknowledge the complicated experience of encountering change in our lives. Rabbi Heather Paul, Assistant Director of Milton Marks Family Camp, has many years of experience in ritual design and implementation - both Jewish and secular. Rituals can be used for far more than traditional religious purposes. Rabbi Heather has designed custom rituals for transgender renaming, moving into a new home, blending families, job transitions, and having to closet your sexuality or gender identity for safety. If you are facing a change in your life, this is an opportunity to bid on 90 minutes of professional support in designing and/or implementing a ritual to facilitate the transition.

Rabbi Heather will meet with you virtually to learn more about the change you are facing and to discuss options for ritual response. After discussion with you, Rabbi Heather will design the ritual. She can either write up a detailed facilitator guide for you to complete the ritual on your own or with local community, or she can facilitate the ritual herself over Zoom.

Rabbi Heather has many years of experience as a ritual artist and teacher of clergy and other ritual artists. She looks forward to supporting you in your moment of change with a custom ritual.

College Essay Writing Support (5 Hours Max)
As a full-time middle school English teacher and experienced writing tutor, I’m excited to offer up to 5 hours of individualized college essay support for a student applying to college or other programs requiring personal statements or school-specific essays.

In addition to my middle school English teaching role, I’ve had the privilege of tutoring students of all ages in writing. I've had narratives published on Kveller.com, Grown and Flown (anonymously), and in the essay collection Six Feet Apart: In the Time of Corona (available on Amazon). I also served as a staff member with MMFC for three years, I am deeply committed to their mission. I’ve successfully launched my own children through the college application process and have helped many students in my community with their essays. My approach is supportive, structured, and personalized. I will help your student:

- Brainstorm compelling essay ideas
- Write a strong and authentic first draft
- Edit and refine drafts until they are confident in the final product
- Ensure clarity, authenticity, and adherence to word count requirements

My goal is to help students express who they are as individuals—clearly and confidently as they embark on the next chapters in their educational and social emotional journeys.

Note: Danielle is not available during school hours except in the summer or during my school vacations. I am able to meet in person if your student is able to meet in Belmont, San Carlos or Redwood City, otherwise I will meet with your student on Zoom.
