The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous"

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."

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."
