The best hotel in Kauai and certainly the best I've stayed in all of the islands. Great for an adult vacation, great for families. Fantastic rooms, exceptional facilities.

Celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary here. It's a beautiful property. All the staff we encountered during this trip were nice. You have direct access to the beach, which is very nice and convenient. The pools looked great too, just bummed we didn't stay long enough to enjoy it. Definitely recommending this property!

We enjoy this hotel. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and you feel they are pleased you chose to stay there. The complimentary laundry facility is so helpful. We were heading to Maui after our stay here. It was great to go with clean clothes.

Amazing hotel with top tier service. Pool access and pool experience second to non. On site restaurants had great food but you also pay top dollar. Couldn't be more pleased with the staff and their courteous demeanor. Beautiful property and breathtaking views.

This hotel is quite large and I wouldn’t recommend for honeymooners looking for an isolated/private experience but for travelers looking to truly enjoy the wonders of Kauai it exceeded my expectations. The rooms were quite spacious and very comfortable. Although the grounds are quite large (a bit of a distance from one end to another) the lush landscaping makes the walk from room to the pool/beach more than worthwhile. We spent a few nights dining at Stevensons Library and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and excellent sushi! Smoothie bar in morning also hit the spot. Overall, this hotel met all my needs — balcony overlooking the surf, large and relaxing pool, excellent yoga classes (included) at the spa and good food/live music at night. A central location to many of the island’s attractions was an added plus! Read less
