Napili Bay Resort is a lovely smaller condominium complex right on the water. This unit faces the green space on the right of the building (not ocean facing) but you can see the ocean from the Lanai and you can hear it all the time. There is a roosting spot right outside this condo for the local Myna Birds ;) They are VERY vocal at sunset and sunrise. I LOVED IT! some have stated they are tooo loud, which I can understand why they say that. But they never bothered me. I loved it. The bay just out front is an easy walk, beach access from condo's, there are turtles out there, not alot of fish, but some. there is a rinsing off spot just at the edge of the beach. the Gazebo has the BEST MACADAMIA NUT PANCAKES!
CONS: The condo is small, I don't really see how more than 2 can stay here comfortably. The bathroom is small as well. But perfect for a couple! my only critical thought is that the floors between the upstairs and downstairs are thin.. you can hear everything they are doing upstairs. This only became an issue at nights when it was time to settle down... but by the 10 0'clock hour everyone was pretty quiet.
if you're looking for a really quiet, peaceful hawaiian experience this is probably not the right condo location. But if you're looking for fun, wonderful bay, easy access, AMAZING macadamia nut pancakes RIGHT NEXT DOOR, and you don't mind the busyness of the complex then it is perfect!
