Top Nawiliwili Bay Hotel Reviews

Banyan Harbor Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great central location. Condo was updated, clean, and very spacious and had all of the necessities. We played pickleball and used the pool. Parking was very convenient right outside condo."

The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue

8/10 Good

"I was nice and beautiful . The room was clean . I just think everytime I went to the customer service they only had one rep that just took to long just to ask a question . I think they need more rep at counter instead of one ."

Kaua'i Palms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had the unfortunate timing of being on Kauai during the approach and arrival of hurricane Lowell on Kauai. The staff of this property really made it stand out to us. We were scheduled to go elsewhere during the night the hurricane arrived but one of the staff members (Leidel) suggested we stay another night here due to it location on higher ground and our next property being in an expected storm surge flooding area. Leidel went out of her way to notify us as soon as there was a cancellation that opened a room for us to extend our stay the additional night. Although the storm was very severe, we were safe at this property and had no damage to our rental car. The other property we were going to did have storm surge and fallen limbs that would have destroyed our rental car. Thanks to the concerned staff and their knowledge of how storms affect the island, we were able to remain safe rather than dealing with damage during our visit."

"The place was absolutely stunning with incredible views, everything was really comfy and well equipped, and we look forward to booking it in the future when we come to the island as it is a magical rental."

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! ❤️🌴🌺"

"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."
