Top Nawiliwili Bay Hotel Reviews

The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue

10/10 Excellent

"The property was clean and well kept. Bathroom was excellent. The beach location was perfect! The food options and laid back vibe all around were great! The staff was so kind and helpful. Pool and amenities were well kept!"

Hale Hokuala Kauai, Curio Collection By Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Birthday Stay Ever! 🌺 We had the absolute best stay at Hale Hokuala Kauai! The hotel is absolutely breathtaking, extremely clean, peaceful, and secluded, making it feel like your own little paradise. The amenities are fantastic, and there’s even a beach access path right next to the hotel. The location is perfect because you feel tucked away, yet you’re conveniently located near everything on the island. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and they went above and beyond to make my birthday feel so special! Everything about our stay was perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to come back! ❤️🌴🌺"

"Home was very clean. The view from our room was beautiful. The host was very pleasant, attentive and understanding. We will definitely revisit this island and hope to stay here again."

NEW A/C! - Two Bedroom With Breathtaking Ocean Kalapaki Bay Views in Lihue

8/10 Good

"Nice older place. Quiet location. Communication with the host was great, and check-in and parking were easy. There are several stairs to get to the place, as well as a couple of stairs inside. The deck is nice, although it gets quite a bit of afternoon sun. We enjoyed watching the ships come in and out of the harbor. The bed was comfortable, and the place was well stocked with the basics."

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

10/10 Excellent

"The home is lovely and modern with absolutely incredible views of the bay, evening sunsets, and colorful sunsets. We are a family of 5 that utilized heavily the well appointed kitchen and made plenty of use of the washer and dryer. The space inside is open, clean, and contemporary. The host added many nice bonuses such as toys, puzzles, and activities for kids in addition to anything and everything you would need for a day at the beach. The property is accessible to anywhere on the island and is centrally located to everything. The short walk to town makes for a nice stroll to dinner, shaved ice for dessert, or some souvenirs shopping. All in all, a great place to stay while visiting the beautiful island of Kauai!"

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."
