The Kauai Inn
9.0 (110 reviews)

The Kauai Inn ★★★

📍 2430 Hulemalu Rd, Lihue, Kauai

"Overall, it offers good value for money and is a recommended place to stay on Kauai! [What I liked] - The staff were all very kind and provided excellent service. - It's a unique experience to have breakfast with cats, peacocks, and chickens. - There are live music events on the terrace on certain days of the week, which created a great atmosphere. - Breakfast included yogurt and bagels, simple but perfectly satisfying. - It was convenient to have water and coffee available at any time. [What I was concerned about] - (As of March 2026) Due to road closures, access from the airport was a long detour and a little inconvenient. - Towels and sheets are not changed unless requested. - I felt something like house dust or mold in the room, which caused sneezing and coughing. - The air conditioner was quite loud, making it difficult to sleep with it on. Overall, despite some minor issues, considering the price, the satisfaction level is high, and I think it's a good place to stay casually on Kauai."

Sheraton Kauai Resort

Sheraton Kauai Resort ★★★★

📍 2440 Hoonani Rd, Poipu

"Stayed in the hotel for two nights. Overall it was good. There is a beach just outside the door. It is worth mentioning that the beach is very beautiful. The only disappointment is that there is no spa and brunch. It would have been perfect."

📍 4-796 Kuhio Hwy, Kauai

"We only needed a room for the night however I was pleasantly surprised. The location was gorgeous, we had an ocean view on the first floor and there was a bonus sunrise yoga on the lawn which was perfect. I would definitely stay at an ISO again. Mahalo"

9.4 (106 reviews)

Koloa Landing Resort at Poipu, Autograph Collection ★★★★

📍 2641 Poipu Rd, Koloa, Poipu

"It's a pity we didn't book a larger room. The facilities were complete and clean, and the service was very nice and responsive. This hotel is perfect for family vacations with children, and the pool is fantastic! The Holoholo restaurant in the hotel is delicious, and the shopping mall next door is very convenient for shopping and dining. Poipu Beach is also very close."

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay
8.0 (117 reviews)

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay ★★★

📍 3-5920 Kuhio Hwy, Kapaʻa, Kauai

"Next to the beach, there is a breakwater for playing in the sea. The location is very convenient. There is a hot spring pool in the swimming pool, which can be used as a hot spring by the elderly. There is also a free laundry room. However, the hotel facilities are a bit old, the windows cannot be opened, and the fresh air blower and air conditioner are very loud. They must be turned off at night, otherwise it feels like sleeping on an airplane."

Koa Kea Resort on Poipu Beach Hotels in Kauai

Koa Kea Resort on Poipu Beach

"Beautiful location close to the beach. First room we were shown was extremely dark so we asked to change to a different one that didn't require to have the lights on during the day. Restaurant was decent, bed was comfortable. The one time we wanted to spend some time by the pool there weren't any chairs left, so would advise to go early to secure a spot."

The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue Hotels in Kauai

The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue

"The location is superb. It's very convenient to the airport, major attractions, shopping, and dining. Public facilities (pool, beach, garden) are shared with the adjacent Marriott. The environment is beautiful. There are golf courses and running tracks nearby, and the beach is right outside the door, perfect for swimming. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with new amenities, and the balcony faces the pool and offers beach views. The stay experience far exceeded expectations."

Marriott's Kauai Lagoons - Kalanipu'u Hotels in Kauai

Marriott's Kauai Lagoons - Kalanipu'u

"Very quiet and relaxing ! perfect place to have real down time away from hectic crowds. The pool is lovely and the staff most helpful. While there is no restaurant there are plenty of grills, and the kitchen was supplied well- if you are missing something from the store they have the basics for purchase. My husband walks with a cane - so navigating the resort was a bit tricky, particularly because he wanted to go to the gym, which was pretty far away from the room .Other than that - I would stay there again. Some mentioned the airplane noise since it’s close to the airport -but we did not notice that it had a negative impact on the peacefulness of the area."

Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club Hotels in Kauai

Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club

"Lovely and well manicured resort that is perfect for families...it has it all. Fun pools for kids, big plush lawns, excellent beach (swim-able, Hawaiian monk seals, turtles ), and great gym. Rooms are good size. We had 2bd/2bath with a full size kitchen, inside dinning table, and out-side dinning on our balcony. View was of manicured garden, ponds, and waterfall. Numerous out-door barbecues available, no waiting. Beach-side restaurant/bar was good. Food was reasonable and drinks were resort rates. Grand kids gave it a big thumbs-up! Staff was helpful."

The Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas Hotels in Kauai

The Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas

"This hotel is fantastic! It's a villa-style hotel with everything you could need in the room: a washer and dryer, laundry detergent and dryer sheets, a kitchen, and a dishwasher—very convenient. The environment is also great, the pool and hot spring are nice, and the restaurant service is excellent. The food selection is average, but that's typical for white people, I guess. Overall, it exceeded my expectations, and I really enjoyed the hotel."

"The hotel doesn't do housekeeping every day, but everything you need is provided. Very convenient, and I especially liked their bath towels. They're even better than some five-star hotel towels. I saw a rainbow this morning! 🌈"

Aston Islander on The Beach ★★★
"It's not what it seems. It is a hotel that has very good things and others not so much. When we arrived we were given a room with a double bed and a sofa bed. We had booked a twin room and were told this was Trip's problem. That they only guarantee the views. All the furniture is wooden and very old. The old sofa, with a thin mattress and perforated sheets... Finally the next day we were changed to a room with two beds (and sea view) which was much better. However, the furniture was also old. It is advertised here that the cleaning of the room is daily but it is not true. They clean only one day for stays of at least 5 nights. If you are staying less than a few days and you want the room to be made for you, 50 USD. If you want clean towels, 10USD. The hotel does not have elevators, so you have to carry your bags up the stairs to the room (on the floor you are on). Just arriving they charge you 147.45USD in taxes (amenity fee, ta tax, ge tax, county ta tax...). Good: Prime location, in front of (private) beach, with restaurants, supermarkets and shops next door. The main road is right there. Swimming pool with hammocks and a bar (opens at 3pm). There is a refrigerator, coffee maker and microwave in the room."

"Beautiful hotel, beautiful room, beautiful swimming pool, the people working at the bar are very pleasant however disappointment at the reception level (not all of us agree) but when you pay that much you expect more consideration and kindness, it's a shame, For the explanation, my French blue card does not pass with their strip reading system (message stating insufficient balance) except that the day before another person allowed me to insert it and make my code and as if by magic It works in fact I made purchases in town right after with this famous card. Bad luck, I had a bad trip, I was planning to come back at the end of my trip but it clearly put me off."
