We arrived on a day where there was no reception but the team at West Inn sorted everything via text for us - really efficient and worked perfectly while we were travelling. The Inn has a perfect location for exploring local hotspots, the staff were really friendly / helpful, facilities were all clean and comfortable.

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI

Nestled next to the Wailua River in an ocean front location featuring private beach access, Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI features an outdoor pool and a hot tub.

The Hotel is located next to the Beach Park. It has been maintained well. The hotel has two outdoor pools along with hot tub. Sunrise viewing is a literally walk across the park. We had a ocean view room so could view the sunrise from the window. The hotel also has laundary facility, which was very effective. Also, there was enough parking including a overflow area. The check-in and check-out was seamless experience. It is highly recomended for families with kids. The unique thing is that Lydgate Beach Park is right next to the property, and you can spend quality time both during sunrise and sunset hours and throughout the day too. As we did not avail the breakfast facilitiy, cannot comment on it.

The property is so pretty and the location offers the best beach of the Island. Poipu Beach is incredible beautiful and perfect for both sunrises and sunsets. The presence of sea turtles and seals are definitely a bonus. I'm verry happy that volunteers are protecting the animals on the beach against overenthusiastic tourists. The beach gets crowded during the day but there is enough space at the swimming pool or on the beach chairs (reserved for hotel guests only) in front of the beach. Marriott's Waihohai Beach Club is a good base to explore the island like the Waimea canyons, whale watching... The room was quiet, clean and had everything we needed. We loved our stay here!

    Kapaa
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.8
    Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 329 reviews
    Check-in and parking was easy. The hotel is right at the beach and our 2nd floor apartment was the third away from the ocean but had a good sea view and one could hear the waves (as well as chicken, as Kauai is the Garden and Chicken Island of Hawaii - they are simply everywhere). The big pool area was very nice and well-maintained. The appartment was sufficiently equipped for preparing and eating food in the apartment. The airport is not far but beware of the rush hour on workdays - in the morning to Lihue and in the afternoon from Lihue. All attractions are easy to reach by car and/or a bit of hiking but depening on traffic, you better plan a day trip if you are going all north (Tunnels Beach, etc.) or south (especially Waimea Canyon). The shopping center next door is convenient and supermarkets are not far away.

    We had the most amazing stay at Kiahuna Plantation. The apartment was perfect for 2 - fully equipped with everything we needed, spacious rooms, and the balcony overlooking the beautiful garden with view of the ocean. It was one of the buildings closest to the main road, but was still pretty calm and quiet. The beach was a 3-min walk through the resort, and we also had Poipu beach just 5-10 mins away on foot. The cafe across the road served us well, and the proximity of the shopping village was also very convenient. The access to the athletic club was also nice to have.

    The room was very spacious and comfortable. Good choice of restaurants within a walking distance. Sunrise from the courtyard was incredible. Breakfast to go was handy - sugary cereal, fruit, yogurt etc. The roosters let us sleep till 5:30 which was generous compared to roosters in different part of the island.

    Kapaa seems to be an old town. It is not like Poipu or Hanalei but good small town. We had great meal at Fish Bar Deli, local foods (spam musubi and chicken karate) to take out at Wailua Drive In, and big bowl of pho at Pho Kapaa. These places were busy with local people and we enjoyed their meals as well as services.

    My husband and I traveled to Kauai to celebrate our birthdays and had an amazing time. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kauai Lawai Beach Resort C103. Our condo was on the ground floor with a lanai looking out to a garden area. We loved seeing the island chickens and the nightly parakeets flocking to roost in the trees. We were across the street from the beach which was convenient to watch the sunset every night. We had a wonderful time in Kauai. Po'ipu was a great location central to everything we wanted to see.

    Don't bother, so many more options available.

    Don't bother, so many more options available. If you want to see some original cottages, just drive by. Many locals stay there for parties with lots of people in one cottage - they receive nice discounts but do like to stay up late! I would not go to Hawaii to swim in a pool but saw many people use theirs. The beach was poor so no one was on it since you cannot swim. They could have supplied bikes - that would have been a bonus. The distance to everything except Waimea Canyon is far but if you are planning on hiking the canyon daily it is your second best option (the first being cabins 1/2 way up the mountain). You need a car since there is only one restaurant near by and the kitchen facilities are poor. Hiking was great - would have been nice to stay where we could rent a paddle board or surfboards / boogie boards. Def. take a helicopter ride and see the Napili Coast line from the water!

    I live here and just needed to be near the hospital for a procedure, so the location was perfect. I was unable to eat (except for coffee) or go swimming so did not do any of those things but there are beautiful beaches nearby. There are so many things I could point out for travelers, but it would take pages! For me, Lihue is a place to mostly do anything legal, doctors and shopping.
