Kauai Beach Resort

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and dinners were excellent quality, and we ate there everyday for seven days. Only one time were we disappointed with a pasta/penne dish. There were plenty of swimming pool areas with waterfalls. Even a pool with a sandy beach for the children. We will return to that resort/hotel in the future. Good value, priced right. Mrs, D

We were both VERY happy with this hotel! The location is perfect, the room and all areas on the premises were clean. They had wonderful entertainment nightly in the lounge and a beautiful pool atmosphere. They provide rentals for the beach, delicious food and drinks and everything else to make your stay comfortable.

The hotel is a little older and the elevators are very slow, But its a good value if you are planning to go out and do things in Kauai everyday. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is average but overall I would stay there again.

The staff was very nice and accomodating!! I loved the breakfast buffet.

Room had a fantastic view of ocean and resort is great. Very good value for money.

We were visiting Kauai for the second time, celebrating our anniversary on the same island where we honeymooned but staying at a different hotel. This hotel is an excellent choice for couples, and it may be even better for families. Pros: central location (equidistant from the farthest reaches of the highway); excellent value breakfast buffet; live music in the restaurant every night; no pressure for upgrades or timeshares; moderately priced compared to other Kauai properties (we had lagoon view, which was just fine); friendly staff; hosted local artists and events; pools were open pretty late; super close to airport but with zero plane/helicopter noise; luxurious but laid back Cons: hard to navigate the only entrance/exit during weekday rush hour; the tree-dwelling birds and chickens are *loud* at sunrise (but that may be a problem no matter where you stay - can't remember if it was an issue at our previous hotel in Poipu...); surf at the beach is definitely too rough for swimming - one of us even got a toe injury just while wading in the water

The hotel was nice and clean. The pool was my favorite with a slide and waterfall. They offered a free hula show with complimentary Mai Tais which was very relaxing. The beach is just a short walk away and our mountain side room still had a partial ocean view. Self parking is $12.95 a night and valet is $15.95 a night.

The location was great, just a few minutes from the airport. Check in was quick and courteous. Room was very clean and bed was super comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and well cared for. Food was excellent but a bit overpriced. Enjoyed the Shutters lounge in evening with live entertainment. Loved the whole experience and look forward to going back.

Quiet, low key (but fun), clean, good for kids, beautiful grounds, pools, nice rooms. Quick drive from there to snorkeling or shopping or other restaurants. Very good stay for the price.

This resort was absolutely gorgeous. The grounds were beautiful; tons of pools, hot tubs and waterfalls. There were little lakes with bridges and fountains, and there was even one pool that was more like a beach, with little pebbles at the bottom. The rooms were large, well-decorated and comfortable. The only problems we had were: 1. How quickly our bill grew 2. The condition of the beach (tons of ocean debris, and creepy white crabs). 3. The lack of variety at the hotel restaurant When we first arrived, we didn't have a car rental, and within two days had spent hundreds of dollars on meals and drinks. My boyfriend and I spent $55 on a couple sandwiches and cocktails for lunch the day we arrived. However, as soon as we rented a car, the resort was perfect. Price Examples: $13/day - Parking $13/day - Internet in room $12/cocktail $25/plate for dinner $15/plate for lunch $15 for the breakfast buffet I found the lunch to be pretty mediocre. It was typical bar food - sandwiches and french fries. The dinners were great, although the salad bar alone was $15, and no small house salads were available. We would have liked the option to split an entree and each order house salads, but that wasn't possible. My boyfriend grew tired of the menu quickly, and we were both a little disappointed at the number of beef-centric meals. For $25-30 a plate, we definitely wanted more options. When we finally did rent a car, we absolutely loved the resort. Kauai'i is so small that although the resort is "far" from everything but the airport, it is actually no more than an hour drive from either end of the one major road. About 5 miles north of the resort were tons of great little shops, restaurants, surfing lessons, etc. Upon renting the car and exploring the island, the resort became a gorgeous haven to return to each afternoon, and we were able to spend the money we would have spent on the hotel amenities doing fun activities in the area. I would definitely recommend paying for the breakfast buffet when you book online. I think we paid $4 each per day to add continental breakfast at booking, instead of the hotel rate of $15.
