Top Nawiliwili Bay Hotel Reviews

The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice stay came over to help residents of Kauai after hurricane Lowell finish my assignment early. Left a day earlier to spend time with my family. Plan to bring my family back the next time."

Kauai Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time! Our first trip to HI and we celebrated a 50th Birthday. We saw a tone of beautiful Gold Dust Day Geckos running about. The inn has got a historic vibe, our room was clean, quiet, and had a view of the ridge behind. The inn location is a quick 2 min drive through a port yard area to a shopping area with restaurants and other activities. We didnt use the amenities during our stay as we wanted to spend our time exploring the island, which the inn sits about half ways drive to each end of the highway. The Staff are great and very helpful, great spot if your not looking for all the crowded hotel tourists gathered in one resort."

Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club

8/10 Good

"Pool and beach are great, the rooms was old and stuffy, staff was super friendly and helpful."

Modern Oceanfront Resort Living. Luxury Oceanfront Bedroom Suites. Sleeps 10!

10/10 Excellent

"Unfortunately because of hurricane Lowell we were unable to travel to Kauai or stay at this beautiful home. My 5 stars are only an indication of how well and professional the host handle my situation. Thank you and I hope that one day my travels take me back to Kauai and an opportunity to enjoy your home."

OCEANFRONT-VIEW HOME IDEAL LOCATION FULLY EQUIPPED

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful house with lots of space and great views."

Spectacular Oceanfront Penthouse, AC, Sleeps 6

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful property! I would highly suggest staying here. The layout is fantastic—where there’s essentials like wash stations everywhere for gear and general beach life.The views are incredible and the pictures don’t do it justice. The access to the beach and the beach itself are some of the best in Kauai. The lighting controls are fantastic for all times of day and moods.The master shower - worth booking solely for the open-air double rain shower heads and open sliding doors overlooking the bay. The walk to the lighthouse is just behind the house and gives you views of the ocean that is truly Kauai."

LAST MINUTE DEAL! 2BR in Lihue, minutes from the beach. Perfect for a getaway!

8/10 Good

"Very clean property, in a good location on the island. Very nice pool area. Lots of noise from the highway. The a/c had a timer on it you have to crank every 6 hours. The property had minimal kitchen equipment. No large skillets, no cookie sheets. No hair dryer. No beach equipment at all."

PRIVATE Ocean Front Cottage Over Looking Beautiful Kalapaki Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome location walkable to beach, Sonesta Resort, Dukes, Golf Course and nearby coffee and shops. We rented both A & B which was comfortable for our family group of 9. Property shows some age and is in need of a few small repairs, new screen door but overall great value for the money."

Breathtaking Oceanfront Suite @ Kalapaki Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for our 10 year anniversary. Waking up to the waves of Kalapaki Bay was just what we needed. This place is very comfortable and we will definitely come back. Two nights is not enough."
