Top Kauai Hotel Reviews
Kaua'i Palms Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Fabulously immaculate place! Inside and outside. Delightful and tastefully decorated. Three air conditioners; one in each bedroom and one in the main room. Everything worked well and enjoyed having a full size refrigerator in the kitchen."
Kauai Shores Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"I really liked this hotel and it lived up to expectations and then some. Great ambiance and clean!"
THE ISO HOTEL, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
6/10 Okay
"The hotel is in a good sea facing location and convenient for eating places, retail shops and walks along the seafront. The room is comfortable and the staff are polite. If you’re looking to get some beach time and want to get into the water, this is not the place. There is parking there free of charge. There is also a drinking water filling station at the reception which is great. You can borrow bikes too should you wish to ride along the seafront. The not so good bit: Breakfast: While there is coffee in the room, there is no coffee in the breakfast area. Also, there is a basic cold breakfast with preserved items like prepackaged muffins and yoghurt and drinks from the fridge. There is no coffee at breakfast. You must have a coffee back in your room isn’t a great experience. We ended up trying this the first day and then stopped having b/f. The only other option is to walk to the retail park and grab a Starbucks there. The mandatory resort fee: The $35 per night resort fee is a rip off in my opinion. That is charged by the hotel on top of whatever you’ve paid for your room. I haven’t had any other hotel resort fee given that the only resort feel to is the pool and the bicycle that you can borrow. For me, this was a ripoff. No lift/escalator: You need to carry your bags to the room. Not great if you’re on 2nd floor Cleaning: The room is only cleaning if you request it the previous evening. Our request was messed up and we had the chase up the cleaning."
Banyan Harbor Resort
6/10 Okay
"Easy access to shopping centers and restaurants. The staff is friendly and helpful. The area is noisy from early morning to evening with automobiles and people talking outside. The air units are noisy as well. Our telephone wouldn’t connect when we wanted to request the front desk. Not all the electrical plugs worked and the remotes did not work with the television or air units."
The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue
6/10 Okay
"well remodeled rooms however still smells of mold/mildew when Air Conditioner is on. We tried to keep slider open to avoid it but needed some cooling at times. Great pool and beach. Very easy access to Airport."
1 Hotel Hanalei Bay
10/10 Excellent
"From the concierges, to the valets, to the poolside wait staff, to the housekeeping, the hospitality was wonderful! We made the mistake of doing Uber instead of a rental car. Not the smartest idea considering it is really easy to get an Uber from the airport to Princeville, but very hard to get an Uber while at the hotel. The valet manager and staff were very helpful in arranging other transportation for us, and even drove us to and from the hotel to the the Princeville Market so we could try some other restaurants in addition to the ones at the hotel. Perfect access to the beach and fun trails to walk/hike."
OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa
8/10 Good
"Hotel was nice enough. Directions to our room were not clear at all. Staff talked too fast, too quiet, marked up a map in a sloppy, not helpful way so we roamed the property before having to ask for help. Construction made access to our room with heavy bags challenging as they had to be carried up and down a handful of stairs. It would have been nice to have vending machines available in building 1 not just water and ice. Parking was additional cost and also confusing. Valet staff were the best part of the experience. So nice and helpful!"
Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach Resort
6/10 Okay
"We appreciated the staff during our stay—they were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. Unfortunately, the property itself was not what we expected based on the photos. The hotel appears quite dated and in need of significant maintenance. There was a strong sewage odor near the pool area during our stay, which made spending time there unpleasant. The hotel was also undergoing extensive fumigation, and many hallway wall panels and trim pieces had been removed, giving parts of the property a partially renovated or unfinished appearance. At times, we were surprised the hotel was operating while this level of work was taking place. Our room was comfortable and generally clean, but it also showed signs of wear consistent with the rest of the property. Overall, the staff were the highlight of our stay, but the condition of the hotel did not match our expectations or the photos we viewed before booking."
Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful pools and Spa, great local shuttle service. Our room did have some issues but they fixed it. Highly recommend"
