Lovely staff! The cafe in front of the hotel has great food and the nicest staff. The views from our room were amazing and the location is super central to everything!
The woman at the front desk was so sweet and kind. Made the check in process easy. The stay itself was great ,not loud, nice rooms king size bed, WiFi, fridge & microwave included . Also great view of the water , will definitely be returning here (:
The suite was spacious with a full kitchen( we didn't use). Double sinks in bath area. Landscaping was beautiful. Right on the ocean. Staff were very helpful and nice.
This hotel is a bit tired but has a fabulous view. The room is dated and needs paint, but everything was clean. As noted, the view, especially for sunrise was great. The desk staff were very helpful and nice. Borrowed a cruiser for the beach trail - same vein… trail was fantastic but bike was definitely tired. Made a nice ticking noise every pedal rotation- good for alerting walkers you’re coming. 😂 On the mainland, I would have been upset by how much I paid for the night, but what are you going to do?
A beautiful olde world property 30 feet from the sand. No dishes or silverware, but has a tiny fridge/freezer. Walking distance to food, shops and bus. Lovely large pool with waterfall. Comfy bed, AC, balcony. There is a walking path between the beach rooms and the

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great location excellent view from the oceanfront room however the furniture was quite dated no kitchen great place if you're looking for a budget price with Ocean view
The staff was amazing, view was amazing, location was amazing. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Was bummed the washing machine amenities weren’t available and wish the room was better cleaned but overall the stay was great.
Hotel Coral Reef was amazing!! The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The view and beach behind the hotel was beautiful. The hotel was in the perfect location with so many food options that are walking distance. I would highly recommend this hotel for a chill and relaxing trip to Kauai.
Definitely an older hotel but the view, welcoming staff, and very well maintained grounds make it worth it. Very easy to walk to shops, restaurants, and numerous food carts. We just left and are already planning our next visit!
Right on the beach and boardwalk. Incredible value for the price! Big room, nice bathroom, ocean facing balcony, free access to bikes etc. location is on the man drag so you are right there for restaurants and shopping.
Nice place! Would've used the coffee machine but it wasn't the most clean, and the fridge had a smell so we didn't end up using that either, other than that, it's a nice place to stay. Great views!
Booked it on a whim as i needed a place to stay for an evening very last minute. Woman at checkin was so upbeat and nice. Facility was older but extremely clean and well maintained which i honestly prefer to the marble walled resorts. Located on a super pretty beach, plenty pf amenities/food within walking distance.
Comfy bed, clean, air conditioning, fridge, complimentary cofee, free parking, great beach access, close to town, and very friendly staff that helped with every need. Great breakfast restaurant adjacent to hotel property.
Room had an incredible view of the beach, air conditioner worked great and the staff was so helpful and amazing. We will for sure book this hotel again.
