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."

Hale Hokuala Kauai, Curio Collection By Hilton

8/10 Good

"We were some of the first guests to stay at this hotel. This facility is absolutely beautiful and will definitely become a great place for people to stay and enjoy. The location is close to the airport and a lot of restaurants and stores. The property has parking that's not to far from the building. The room was well decorated and the sheet and pillows were definitely the Hilton level. The staff was super friendly and helpful from beginning to end with them helping us and suggesting places to go visit and eat at. Kai from the front lobby was great and helpful multiple times. One issue is that their in house bar closes too early at 1030pm, and they dont offer any alcohol for sale in their lobby. That was an inconvenience since then we had to leave the property to find alcohol to enjoy in our room. And there was a ton of construction with is to be expected with the recent opening and the hurricane, but a lot of the area where the rooms were at seemed messy and there was too many construction workers around the hotel near the rooms. Maybe completing a portion at a time would have been nicer so not see the behind the scenes. And a piece of metal fell from the ceiling and almost hit us while we were getting ready."

Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing pool area and beach right on premises. Never an issue finding chairs at either. Staff was very friendly. Nearby shopping and additional restaurants as well as convenience stores a big plus. Beautiful grounds. Very peaceful. Will return"
