Top Nawiliwili Bay Hotel Reviews

Kauai Inn

8/10 Good

"This is a hidden gem. The oldest hotel in Kauai built in 1890. Moved to current location 1969. The location is hidden but very quiet. The rooms are huge and the cleanest of any hotel that I have ever stayed in near a beach. The included breakfast is continental but with most choices I ever had, including lots of fresh fruit, breads, rolls, and cereals. A selection of high in coffee. All in all a quite very desirable place to stay. PS: the hotel John Wayne and crew stayed in while filming Donovan’s Reef."
