Kaua'i Palms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay! Parking was free which is nice."

Aston Islander on the Beach

8/10 Good

"Great Location. Easy parking. Nice landscaping, walking paths, and building layout. Friendly staff. A/C in unit was ok. Online booking for choice of category and bedding was a bit unclear. Requested 2 dbls as offered but was given one Queen and a sofa bed. Our stay was only one night so did not complain. Good shopping and restaurants nearby the property, which is very convenient! Overall a pleasant experience and will definitely stay here again. Mahalo~"
