Breathtaking views, good service, although not sure if it was worth the price

During our Kauai vacation my wife and I spent 3 nights at a resort in Poipu, and then 2 nights at the St. Regis. The views from the hotel are hard to match anywhere, overlooking Hanalei Bay, surrounded by lush mountains. The staff was extremely professional and pleasant and our stay was good overall. However, not sure how great of a value it was considering the cost. Breakfast and other resort dining was all pricey. Also, at least the week we were there, the resort and especially the pool area seemed crowded, which is great for business, of course, but not ideal if you seek peace, quiet, and relaxation during your vacation. Lastly, we arrived right at check-in time, 3pm, but had to wait until 4.30 until our room was ready for us.

Gorgeous place - not so convenient if you're doing a lot of activities

- Jan 9, 2012
This resort is gorgeous right from the entrance. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful and the rooms were very very clean. The pool is spectacular and there are other pools and hot tubs away from the main pool if you are looking for a quiet atmosphere. The restaurant and pool bar don't have the best food on the island and it is a little pricy as is the food in the resort market. The bar closes down really early so if your looking for an evening drink you'll have to go elsewhere. The WiFi was awful. Very low signal and only worked half the time. Even the Internet in the business center was slow and cost $5.95 for 15minutes.
The place was really nice but if you are doing a lot of activities you may want to stay closer like in Kapaa otherwise it is a 40min to two hour drive to do boat tours, kayaking, some zip lining, and plane tours.
However, Princeville has a nice little market where you can grocery shop, get good food, and do a little shopping and Hanalei is only 8 minutes north with great food, beautiful beaches and some kayaking and surfing activities.

Great spot on Kauai

The hotel, location and amenities were fantastic. There were two issues though. One is the completely ridiculous lack of parking near the room. When I'm paying $13/day as a resort parking fee on top of a room parking way across the lot and a long walk from the room just isn't ok. The other issue we had was with the Westin's green policy, where they give you a $10 resort credit if you don't use the house keeping service. At check in apparently this wasn't explained anywhere near fully and it six phone calls to still not resolve the misunderstanding, with us just giving up and letting it slide. Other than that the hotel was excellent.

Description
Plantation offers the grace of yesteryear for de-stressing todayA 30-acre historic property on Kauai's west coast, Aston Waimea Plantation Cottages is a step back in time. Lovingly restored vintage houses are outfitted with period furnishings in rattan, wicker and mahogany. Each cottage is uniquely decorated and offers its own charm. While a handful of cottages are oceanfront, most are set among the coconut palm and banyan trees, fronting graceful manicured lawns. A restaurant, pool and spa add contemporary comforts, but the draw here is a feeling of being transported to a simpler, quieter time. Highlights Overall ambiance of idyllic restfulnessAuthentic sense of Kauai historySpa with indoor and outdoor treatment areasA 4,000-square-foot, five-bedroom Managers House LocationKauai's west coast, which serves as a gateway to Waimea Canyon, Koke'e State Park, and raft and kayak tours along the iconic Na Pali Coast RoomsRestored one- to five-bedroom vintage homes from Kauai's plantation era are clustered about the 30-acre Aston Waimea Plantation Cottages property. Period furnishings and architectural details evoke a bygone era and exude romance. For larger families or groups, top choice is the Managers House, a 4,000-square-foot, five-bedroom oceanfront home with AC in the master bedroom. The five-bedroom Kruse House, built circa 1920, was moved to this property in 2002. It is fully air-conditioned and each bedroom has a private bath. FeaturesThose looking for a place to relax and recharge in utterly peaceful surroundings will see this historic property as paradise. Plantation-era cottages set the tone, aided by inviting hammocks beneath the trees. Aston Waimea Plantation Cottages isn't the place for exuberant nightlife, though the on-site pub sometimes brings in local talent to complement its handcrafted brews. The antithesis of activity and action, there's a slow-down-and-breathe ethic here -- in the quiet, at the pool, at the full-service spa. While the black-sand beach is not for swimming, Kekaha Beach, five minutes away, has white sand and a lifeguard. Transportation Lihue Airport (25 mi/40.2 km)Taxis and limousines available Attractions Russian Fort Elizabeth State Historical Park (0.9 mi/1.4 km)Waimea Canyon State Park (7 mi/11.2 km)Captain Andy's Raft Expeditions (7.5 mi/12 km)Outfitters Kauai Na Pali Coast Kayak Tours (17.7 mi/28.5 km)Koke'e State Park (18 mi/29 km) Business Grove Conference Center and several other venues accommodate up to 400 peopleComplimentary Internet is available in the "Breezeway," the Aston Waimea Plantation Cottages lobby area Policies and feesAll Aston Hotels & Resorts managed hotels and condominiums are non-smoking.

Make Kauai Your Home Away from Home

The cottage was quaint and very Hawaii. You feel as though you've gone back in time and our on the farm...in a good way. Footed bathtub made for a nice soak after a long day of hiking. Full kitchen was the best part as we cooked all our meals. Stopped at Costco from the airport and stocked up for our week stay. The beach is not ideal to swim in as it's murky and the westside is very far away from anything else. Not much to do. The location being the biggest downfall.

Fantastic - got in late and the staff left detailed instructions on how to get the room key. While the condo is definetly in need of some updates, the location could not be better. It's right on the ocean and you can fall asleep each night to the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks below. Poipu Beach is a 2 minute walk away and there are restaurants and bars within walking distance as well. The appliances all worked well and there were pots and pans and all that so you can save a coiple of bucks by eating meals in (the grocery store is about 5 minutes away by car). We did not deal with the staff much but when we did they were very friendly and helpful.
We would stay here again , no question. For what the place lacks in amenities it more than makes up with location and ambiance provided by the ocean.

Unbelievable location!

- Aug 7, 2010
Amazing unit for location. Waves breaking directly below us 24/7. We kept taking pictures to document the views. Really enjoyed having a townhouse with views from both floors. They gave us a free upgrade for seemingly the best view.
The unit was suitable for us but could maybe be updated, older carpet, etc. Enjoyed the "glass-louvered" windows to hear the waves and for the ocean breeze.
Pleasant, helpful Staff. Automatic lighting at the back of the unit every night for security. We did need to keep our sliding glass doors closed and locked every night, even on the second floor. Could maybe use added security as there were reported break-ins on the Island and the location is somewhat remote being right over the ocean.
The pool was clean and nice with waves sometimes breaking to "spray" into the pool area (I told you it was just above the ocean.)
Parking completely adequate for us.
Close enough to walk to area beaches (Poipu) and to a Restaurant and snack bar at "Brennecke's." The snack bar has breakfast items, laundry soap.
Well-stocked kitchen in the townhouse for meals or grilling at home. They also provided paper towels, dish soap, etc. Nice washer and dryer upstairs. Safe provided in the unit.
We snorkeled at Lydgate Park, swam in front of the Sheraton, took an ocean raft trip (pretty rough) to see turtles, took a canoe trip to a swimming hole, saw waterfalls, Sheraton Luau, and snorkeled at Anini on the North Shore. Recommend "Pink's" ice cream in Hanalei.
This was the best location we have had in Kauai (third trip here) and we enjoyed the quiet, "homey" feel to the property.
Our guidebook suggested that people ask for an "upgraded" unit when reserving. We had a "deluxe" two bedroom. All units are ocean-front.
Maybe ask for additional security if possible.
Don't expect a fancy hotel but more of a traditional, homestyle property.
Memorable ocean-front stay!

The Makahuena is in a fantastic location at the end of a hotel resort area. It sits on a cliff looking out over the Ocean with 180 deg views. On pulling into the parking lot, we were greeted with a huge whale breaching not 200 yards off shore. Our room (a 3br ocean view)while older is in great shape. comfortable beds and breathtaking views from the balcony. All 6 members of our party were blow away by the value and the setting of this island paradise.

We were here from Jan 17-27. Overall the location won out over any complaints, but the construction was a major issue...noisy, smelly and intrusive. Also, paying extra for a "partial ocean view" was a complete waste of money. The beach, garden and pool areas are beautiful. During construction there is only one restaurant on site and no hotel shop in which to pick up needed items...it's a long long walk to the nearest store. Weather was great; snorkeling was moderate; hotel activities staff booked us on a wonderful 5-hr whale watching boat trip...saw lots of whales, dolphins and turtles.

Upscale vacation condominiums on the sunny south shore at PoipuThe Point at Poipu is a luxury condominium resort on 22 acres overlooking Keoneloa Bay. At its heart is a half-acre free-form pool edged on one end by lava rocks and a sandy beach, so it feels like a natural lagoon. Elegant palms, koi ponds and low-rise buildings recall the plantation era of Kauai, but condominiums are island upscale and contemporary, bright and airy with tropical prints and luxury touches, including elevator access. A path leads from The Point at Poipu to the Hyatt and Shipwreck Beach, while Poipu Beach Park is a three-minute drive.

Overall, we were very pleased with the entire condo complex. Our room was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. We had noisy people above, but that is not an issue with the hotel.
The staff was very accommodating. We had to wait until 4:PM for our room on our arrival day and that was an inconvenience.
Another conventional style swimming pool might be a nice addition, since the single "lagoon style" pool can get busy and filled with kids.
Overall, an excellent value and we will return for another visit.

Excellent condo with great beach and services

Bonny L.
- Jan 11, 2012
We had an excellent stay in a 1-bedroom that was fully equipped with the exception of one item which the staff supplied within minutes. The one repair needed was also dealt with immediately.
One inconvenience was the distance to the breakfast restaurant so it was a good thing we wanted to cook for ourselves in the condo.
We must mention also the annoyance each morning of leaf blower and mower noise from the gardening work.
Other than that, it was perfect for us -- the beach is large and just steps from the door; the gardens are lovely and expansive; the laundry is well-located (if a bit expensive); there is plenty of parking at the unit; the staff are friendly and efficient.
We recommend the Kiahuna Plantation unreservedly.

Overall we had an excellent family stay here. It's located on a gorgeous beach with a park beach down the road that has a reefed-in area perfect for kids. As for the hotel, the staff were helpful and nice, and though we had just a garden view room, it was a gorgeous view and within walking distance of the beach. Next time I will request a room far away from the road, as the road noise was disturbing to our baby; and the restaurant just across the way was noisy into the night.
The condo itself was breezy and adequate; the housekeeping could have been better in the details, such as dust accumulated under furniture and a bit of a grimy-feeling old shower/tub. A couple nights we were too warm, but the fans were helpful although AC would have been welcomed. We did enjoy the lanai balcony which was safe for our toddler, with very high and close rails.
The travel desk/concierge staff were very helpful to help us plan excursions and couldn't have been nicer. We enjoyed especially the sunset sail but a word of caution...take an anti-nausea med beforehand! I'm prone to motion-sickness and forgot that detail which kind of ruined the ambiance for me!
I would stay here again, just in a unit further from the road and closer to the ocean.

We were only here one night, so it was a little pricey considering we did not take advantage of any of the resort's ammenities. The room was quite nice with decent furniture and care -- not 5 star, but didn't expect that. The location was great for getting around the island, although our unit was near the road, so quite noisy, especially the trucks early in the morning. Friendly staff.

Enjoyed a beautiful ocean view room, however when you read, beach within short walking distance, it is that. When you get to the beach it is a very small crescent rocky beach, off to your right another short walk is Poipu beach, which is larger and nicer. Now if your walking from the resort and carrying chairs and coolers it is best to take the short drive up Poipu rd to the beach, plenty of parking, life guard station, shower stations to clean off the sand after a nice time of sunbathing or snorkeling. We stayed at the Kahala units just down the road from the Aston office.

this is not a place to hang out in all day and have a wonderful view and great amenities right at the tips of your fingers, but that's what we wanted. We wanted a place we could crash that had nice bed (the bed was fantastic) that we could come back to after a long day of having fun on this amazing Island.

When we first started looking for plane reservations to this area for my daughters wedding on August 8th we were looking at $950 to $1000 per person.. My daughter saw the package we just got back from on Orbitz for about $1100 per person plane, condo and car// although on the car we did pay $150 more for an upgrade to fit all of us... over all everyone was well pleased. The Manager at Peou Ka Kau was exceptional.. She change our accomodations to best fit our group.. the view were excellent.

We booked this as part of a package so we really did not know what unit we would get till we checked it. We had 106 a ground floor unit with a great ocean view and no steps to deal with. Unit was a little dated but very clean and well maintained. We found a few minor items missing and the staff replaced them right away. We loved this location being midway up the island for our day trips and beach adventures. Traffic could be a bit heavy from time to time with a bit of noise being the bedrooms are on the back traffic side of the units. But the sound of the surf made up for it. We would stay here again. Very Pleased!

The location was perfect for us. Our main love is snorkeling and the northern 2/3 of isle are the best. The room (#207) has everything you could possibly need.Even a cooler for packing a lunch and drinks. I suppose to some the street noise could be a little loud in the mornings but we were so exhausted by days end we didnt realy notice.Since our bodies were still on Central time we were the first up and on the road to see all the sights. Never had to fight crowds or tour buses or look for a place to park. By 5:PM Our day was over and we were ready for a good dinner.Restaurants start getting real busy after 6:pm.Only negative about condo was having the house keeper([...]) call the day before our departure to ask "when I was leaving because she had someone coming in the next day" and "would I start the last load of laundry for her"

The staff at this hotel was extremely helpful and friendly. The location was near a golf course, convenient to town, the river, and a beach park with a protected swimming area for children and playground. The property was attractively landscaped with a Japanese garden and two outdoor pools. Wi-fi was only available in the lobby and the snack bar needs improvement--the only negatives for this property. I would definitely stay here again especially when traveling with children.

Resort adds glam to Coconut Coast with fantasy pool and luxury condosThe beachfront resort spreads over 12.6 acres with a 300,000-gallon fantasy pool in the heart of it. Units range from hotel rooms to two-bedroom vacation condos, located in seven low-rise buildings across an expanse of manicured lawns dotted with pools, waterfalls and slender palms. Outrigger Waipouli Beach Resort opened in 2007 and has a decidedly upscale look and feel, exemplified by the use of exotic wood and imported stone in accommodations.

We stayed in a two bedroom, partial oceanview unit. The room was awesome. Everything was furnished very nicely. Very large rooms, Super nicely done. The kids loved the pool and slide. The ocean was rough, but the beach was beautiful and there were some shallow pools right there which are great for the kids. Very central location and awesome being directly across the street from Safeway. The grounds are immaculate. Can't recommend highly enough. One note though, there is no longer a pool bar/snack shack. That building became the restaurant's kitchen. So no quick burgers, but with a ful kitchen upstairs and grills down stairs that was not a problem.
I'm no longer a fan of Orbitz and won't be using them again. Had major seating isues on the plane, but the hotel was great.

james
- Jul 9, 2011
This unit was dirty so outdated I have stayed at Pono Kai in the past and all was fine. This was a private owned unit and in this case The renters need to totally update the entire unit. There were no other units to change to in Pono Kai ***** Do not stay in unit J101 it was the worst Cono unit I have ever stayed in. The bed was old and worn and hard. You couldnt sleep on the 20 yr old sofa sleeper the shower curtain was full of mold and mildew. The TV in the living room is a old 13 inch TV that is totally to small no unit in the bedroom. Had to go purchase an air mattress to sleep on. There were roaches that came out at night. We paid a cleaning fee up front in the price but the unit was not fit for anyone to stay in.I will never trust [...]or the rental co they use again because of this.

- Aug 25, 2009
I was supposedly upgraded from marc pono to kaha lani since this one closed, (found out it really didn't) the room we were in at kaha lani was terrible. The toaster,dvd player, sliding door, clock radio and the dishwasher were ALL broke, the room was smelly and everything was rusty and very old. The paint was chipping on all the windows. I felt like I was in a cheap hotel in the Ghetto. The carpet was all wet you could see into our room and living area from outside even if the drapes were closed. You could hear everything from all the other rooms. The front of the dishwasher was all rusted and warped and the last straw was the whole front of it fell off when I shut the door. I was so upset with this place for all the money I had spent I felt like we were put into the worst room they could find for us. By the 4th day and after the dishwasher incident I finally went to the manager and she did upgrade us to a room right next door that was the total opposite. I was truly happy she did this but really we or anyone for that matter should never be in the 1st room, it should be condemned. I am so very disappointed with the accommodations that were chose for us by cheaptickets without 1st checking it out for themselves. I am also disappointed with the kaha lani for even putting us in that room to begin with. I feel as if part of my trip should be refunded, hell I could have booked a better and cheaper room at the Kauai sands or something but that is NOT what we paid for period. I hope I get some kind of response from cheaptickets in regards to this.I will wait and see.

There are not a lot of frills here, but basic vacation needs are nicely met in 173 comfortable rooms decked out in casual island-style decor with air conditioning. The 6-acre property has two pools and puts guests steps from user-friendly Wailua Beach, where activities include swimming, snorkeling, sunning, surfing and boogie boarding. The hotel does not have its own restaurant, but the many eateries of Coconut Marketplace are close by. Highlights Steps from Wailua BeachTwo swimming poolsBudget-friendly accommodationsWalking distance to Coconut MarketplaceInternet access (fee applies) LocationA central east coast location makes Kauai Sands Hotel a fine base for easy exploring north to Hanalei Town, Princeville and the Na Pali Coast and south to Poipu Beach Resort. Even the rugged western shore, with spectacular Waimea Canyon and Kokee State Park, is a doable day trip. RoomsAll rooms at Kauai Sands Hotel can accommodate up to three adults or two adults and two children. Basic amenities include both air conditioning and ceiling fans, a small refrigerator, balcony and tub and shower. All rooms have wireless Internet access (fee applies). Kauai Sands Hotel does not have adjoining rooms or cribs available, but families with young children can request a rollaway bed (fee applies). FeaturesKauai Sands Hotel is a good choice for vacationers on a budget and those who plan to spend most of their time out and about in gorgeous Kauai rather than in a hotel room. The hotel is only a couple of miles from Wailua Golf Course, well under a mile from tranquil Wailua River and just a short walk to the 60-plus shops and restaurants at Coconut Marketplace. A small in-room refrigerator allows guests to have snacks, juice and breakfast items on hand, making it even easier to keep a vacation budget in check. And although many island accommodations, even the most luxurious, do not have air conditioning, Kauai Sands Hotel does.

Relaxed Coconut Coast condo resort for easy, convenient vacationingAn oceanfront resort with 160 one-bedroom condominiums, Plantation Hale Suites makes vacation living easy thanks to spacious condominiums fully equipped with everything guests need, including a fine location overlooking Waipouli Beach. Moderately priced and family friendly, Plantation Hale Suites has three swimming pools as well as shuffleboard and croquet. After a day exploring, family and friends can gather around one of the resort grills and cook up a feast while watching the sun set in fiery splendor over the Pacific Ocean. Highlights Easy on the budgetThree swimming pools, two whirlpoolsComplimentary Internet accessRoomy one-bedroom vacation homes LocationPlantation Hale Suites sits on the Royal Coconut Coast, near where the Wailua River spills into the Pacific Ocean. From this central location it is easy to get to adventures, from hiking Waimea Canyon and Kokee State Park in the west to kayaking along one of the most famous coasts in the country, the Na Pali Coast at the north end of Kauai. The Coconut Coast is the most populated area of Kauai, but there are plenty of quiet spaces in and around the vacation condominiums at Plantation Hale Suites. RoomsEach of the one-bedroom condos at Plantation Hale Suites has both air conditioning and ceiling fans, a full kitchen, two cable TVs, private lanai and a sofa bed in the living room for added sleeping space. Condominiums are housed in 10 two-story buildings with "scenic" and garden views. FeaturesThe low-rise buildings at Plantation Hale Suites are set beneath the slender coconut palms that give this coastal area its name. While the beach here, about 150 yards away, is not for swimming, Lydgate Beach Park, less than a mile away, is. Plantation Hale Suites is utterly relaxed – there is no need to get dressed up unless you want to. There is no restaurant on the property, but guests who want to eat out have a huge selection of eclectic eateries in this area to choose from, including those among the 60-plus shops and restaurants of Coconut Marketplace across the street.

Nice hotel with great restaurant

TA
- May 8, 2011
The hotel is located in Kapaa which was one reason I chose it because it's easy to reach both north and west shore. The property is really nice and well maintained. My room was spacious, nice and very clean. Hotel is right on a beach. Though not suitable for swimming or snorkeling it's nice for long walks. One must not miss the restaurant Hukilau Lanai! It's really great. Every dish I had was really tasty.
Some things that could be improved. It's a timeshare and they tried to lure me into their presentations whenever I booked an activity with them (e.g. snorkel trip). I declined but got a bit annoyed after the third time. Check out is early 10 am.

Description
Low-key, low-rise condominium resort offers relaxation and convenienceElegant coconut palms sway over low-rise buildings and gardens, giving Outrigger Lae Nani the feel of a Hawaiian hideaway though it is just a two-minute walk from the eclectic shops and restaurants of Coconut Marketplace. The resort is tucked into a curve of shoreline with a sweet golden beach and protected lagoon that is ideal for young families, but further along Wailua Beach surfers will find a little wave action. Lae Nani is casual and relaxed with spacious vacation condos that make island living easy. Highlights Protected lagoon for familiesRelaxed, casual ambianceAccess to restaurants and spa at Outrigger Waipouli Beach ResortWalking distance to Coconut Marketplace LocationThe eastern shore of Kauai, a.k.a. Royal Coconut Coast, is an excellent base for those who want to explore all that Kauai has to offer. From here visitors can tube in the old plantation irrigation ditches of Lihue, boat up idyllic Wailua River to mysterious Fern Grotto and play golf on any of several nearby courses or those up -- or down -- the road in Princeville and Poipu. Adventuring further afield to the Na Pali Coast or Waimea Canyon makes for a fine day's outing. RoomsAround 50 of the 84 units at Outrigger Lae Nani are in Outrigger's rental pool. One-bedroom condominiums have 1.5 baths and 804 square feet; two-bedroom/two-bath units range from 1,072 to 1,096 square feet. Outrigger Lae Nani is moderately priced but condos are nicely decorated with a full kitchen, including dishwasher. Some units have Internet access (fee applies). FeaturesOutrigger Lae Nani is an excellent resort for casual vacationers who want a central location with spacious, well-appointed condominiums but without a lot of bells and whistles. The two- and three-story buildings do not have elevators and there is no restaurant on-site, but Coconut Markeplace is very close by. There is a nice-but-nothing-fancy pool, tennis court and grills for guest use. If Outrigger Lae Nani guests want a dose of upscale, they can head to the restaurants or spa at Outrigger Waipouli Beach Resort, a mile away.

First Trip to Kauai
-
Dan and Linda
- Jan 23, 2012
Our stay at Lea Nani was terrific! The gardens and grounds are a big plus. Everything was manicured and just a beautiful place to come back to after a day out enjoying the island. The gardener even trimmed the flowers by our room and gave us cuttings for a vase in our room, then left fesh cut bananas on our lanai!
While we loved the setting, our initial room was less than great. We had booked an "ocean view" one bedroom condo, our room, 214, had basically a view of the pool with a very limited view of the ocean. The room was very outdated and needed some deep cleaning. After two nights, we were there 8 nights, I inquired about moving to a different room. The office staff were very helpful and arranged for us to move as soon as something became open on our 4th day. We made the short move to #312 and it made all the difference in our stay at Lae Nani. It was so much nicer, updated, fantastic kitchen and bedroom, baths, living area, and had a very nice view of the beach, ocean and mountains! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Kauai and would book a room at Lae Nani again. Just make sure you ask about the room. Building #3 and #5 look to have the best views.

Low-key condo resort at the edge of Wailua BeachCastle Lanikai Condominium Resort is an intimate retreat. There are just 18 units here, each within a 30-foot stroll of Wailua Beach. Extra spacious two-bedroom condominiums are housed in two low-rise, walk-up buildings on over an acre of lawn and gardens at the edge of the Pacific. A freshwater pool sits near the sand, and because Wailua is one of the swimmable beaches on Kauai, guests can dive into the ocean one hour and lounge around the sunny pool the next. Come evening, there is an oceanfront barbecue area for cooking out and socializing. Highlights All Castle Lanikai Condominium Resort units are just 30 feet from the oceanFreshwater pool at the edge of the beachOceanfront barbecue area LocationSometimes there is nothing better than a cookout with family and friends overlooking the pool and ocean. But when Castle Lanikai Condominium Resort guests decide to go out for the evening, there is no need to look for the car keys. Coconut Plantation Marketplace, with 60 eclectic shops and restaurants, is just one block away. The resort is also an ideal base for exploring all of the must-see sights on Kauai. You can go north, where the cliffs of Na Pali give way to the sea, south to upscale Poipu Beach Resort with world-class golf and fine dining, and all the way to the iconic vistas at the rim of Waimea Canyon in the west. RoomsSpacious condominiums at Castle Lanikai Condominium Resort give guests plenty of room to move -- 1,416 square feet of room. These two-bedroom, two-bath vacation homes have a full kitchen with a dishwasher, wet bar, washer/dryer and a private lanai. All condominiums here are individually owned and furnished, most with island-themed decor that nicely complements the setting. FeaturesDo not worry about doing housekeeping all week. Castle Lanikai Condominium Resort has maid service every three days, giving guests more time to relax -- a nice touch for well-priced oceanfront vacationing. There is no Internet access in condos, but the office has wireless.

Castle Resorts will provide mid-stay housekeeping service for stays that are seven days or longer, which includes changing of linens and towels, vacuuming and cleaning of bathrooms as well as kitchens. As a result, these properties will not be offering daily maid service in lieu of this mid-stay clean. Guests who are staying less than seven days can purchase additional housekeeping services at nominal costs. Extra towels and amenities will be provided in each unit prior to check-in. Guests can request for replenishment of the bath amenities (shampoo, soap, toilet tissues) at any time without charge. There will be a small fee for the replacement of towels/linens.

Best on the island

Laurie
- Sep 8, 2007
We couldn't have asked for more. The condo we rented for six days at the Lanikai Resort provided the nicest accommodations we've ever had. The beautiful two bedroom, two bath unit was tastefully decorated with a fabulous second floor view of the pool and beach - best of all, we usually had the pool and beach to ourselves. Rather than being right on a busy road like many of the hotels, the Lanikai is set back with a green buffer between it and the road, so there was no traffic noise. We were able to park our rental car right outside our room, rather than needing to hike to the hotel from the parking lot or use valet service (or pay to park) as is necessary at some hotels on the island. No elevator didn't bother us as we are capable of carrying suitcases up a flight of stairs; however, if that's a problem, I'd recommend a ground floor unit. Each unit is different since they are owned and rented by the owners, but we couldn't have been happier with the location.

Utterly relaxing condo haven on the east shore of KauaiVacationers looking for nice, affordable beachfront digs in one of the top locations on Kauai will find much to love at Aston Islander on the Beach. Low-key and peaceful, the resort sits on six landscaped acres along a strand of golden sand. Strolling the beach and lounging poolside are pleasant ways to while away vacation days, and sunrise doesn't get much better. Grills are available for guests and the hotel rooms and one-bedroom suites offer home-away-from-home conveniences. The adjacent Coconut Marketplace has dozens of shops and restaurants. Highlights Relaxed oceanfront settingWalking distance to Coconut MarketplaceFree in-room Internet accessComplimentary parking LocationKauai's Coconut Coast is the most central and convenient for vacationers who want to explore all that the Garden Isle has to offer -- which is to say, a lot. Aston Islander on the Beach is located almost mid-way between Waimea Canyon to the west and the riveting cliffs and dramatic topography of the Na Pali coast to the north. Poipu Beach is about 15 miles southwest. The eastern shore has its own compelling sights, too. Peaceful Wailua River, Wailua Falls, and Kauai Backcountry Adventure's Lihue tubing are just a short drive away. RoomsTeak furnishings, private lanais, air conditioning and free Internet access give accommodations an inviting island ambiance with contemporary appeal. Aston Islander on the Beach offers 198 units -- hotel rooms to one-bedroom suites -- in the low-rise, walk-up buildings set around the pleasant property. FeaturesThe beach at Aston Islander on the Beach is perfect for strolling and sunning and the pool is a peaceful respite from the frenetic world. But sports, sights and restaurants are nearby, allowing guests to choose how to spend their time. Lydgate Beach Park, for example, draws swimmers and snorkelers of all ages to its protected, sandy lagoon, and nearby Wailua Golf Course was named by Golf Digest as one Hawaii's 15 best courses. DiningThere are no on-site restaurant but grills on property offer family cookouts. Guests can walk to restaurants at Coconut Marketplace.

Very nice resort but experience spoiled by lack of parking in the evening. Ample parking available in neighboring resort but you will need to find security personnel to issue temp parking pass every evening. Recommend resort issue parking pass for overflow parking upon arrival since they are aware that parking is an issue.

Opulent Poipu resort is both playground and blissful retreatAcres of saltwater lagoons and freshwater pools, grottos, waterfalls, and an extravagance of tropical blooms create a setting so lush it could be a movie backdrop for the ultimate island love story. Tranquil but playful -- who can resist a 150-foot water slide? -- the AAA Four Diamond Grand Hyatt Kauai inspires thoughts of paradise. For spa-lovers it may well be paradise since Anara Spa added its blissful garden sanctuary. Yet golfers, kayakers and tennis players will also find idyllic ways to while away the hours … or days. Highlights 45,000-square-foot Anara Spa Camp Hyatt (ages 3-12), now partnered with National Geographic KidsAdjacent Shipwreck Beach, where "Six Days Seven Nights" was filmed RoomsDecor at the Grand Hyatt Kauai is "Classic Hawaiian" with warm hues and rich woods. There are more than 600 rooms, each with lanai or balcony, but the resort doesn't feel crowded thanks to meandering paths and waterways that create a multitude of secluded, peaceful areas. FeaturesIt is hard to peg the resort as ideal for couples or families, lovers or adventurers, golfers or kayakers, because it is for all of the above. Romantics find hidden nooks among the gardens and lagoons and in the serene spa. Tranquil lagoons beckon to kayakers while golfers can take the challenge posed by Poipu Bay Golf Course, where distractions include whales breaching just offshore. Parents have bonding time with children during cultural and family activities, and adult time while kids play and learn in highly regarded Camp Hyatt. A twice-weekly luau and Polynesian revue is for everyone. DiningThere are nearly a dozen restaurants, bars, and snack venues at the Grand Hyatt Kauai, including an espresso bar where caffeine junkies can jump-start the day at 5:30 a.m. Stevenson's Library channels the ambiance of a Victorian gentleman's club (ladies welcome), a cozy spot for late-night Cognac or Port.

Loved this hotel! The pools were amazing and I loved the water slide. The food in the restaurants was fantastic, but you really pay for it. But you also get what you pay for! I could easily spend an entire vacation here without leaving! The room was comfy and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Overall, it really added to the experience of being in Kauai.

My husband and I traveled to Kauai for the first time this January and made the excellent decision to stay at the Hyatt. Make sure you tell them if it is your honeymoon or anniversary - they delivered champagne to our room and we also got a cabana rental and a complimentary dessert.
We ate at Dondero's one night and it was pretty good. The concierge told them it was our honeymoon and they delivered two special desserts and tea to us for free which was great. The service was excellent.
We also booked a helicopter tour and a zipline tour with the concierge which were AMAZING. Worth every penny. I especially loved the ziplining.

Description
Plantation-style goes upscale on Kauai's Royal Coconut CoastSet on 25 acres along a three-mile beach -- Kauai's longest -- this resort evokes the graciousness of the plantation era but with a host of contemporary amenities. The beach, which is perfect for sauntering or sunning, is not for swimming. No problem. Kauai Beach Resort has four pools, a beachfront sand-bottomed pool and a fantasy pool with a 75-foot lava-tube water slide among them. Two restaurants, a lounge, a fitness center and a spa round out the facilities. And when guests want to explore further afield, Kauai's east coast is an ideal spot from which to do it. Highlights Fantasy pool with 75-foot lava-tube water slideSeries of concerts and programs promoting Hawaiian arts and artistsHawaiian Rainforest SpaComplimentary bocceComplimentary airport shuttle LocationKauai's Royal Coconut Coast is rife with sacred sites and groves of slender coconut palms, with its character shaped in part by long, curving Wailua River, the only navigable river in all of Hawaii. A stay here should include visits to a trio of sites, Fern Grotto, Secret Falls, and 80-foot Wailua Falls, made famous in the opening scene of TV classic "Fantasy Island." RoomsAccents such as louvered doors and wood floors recall plantation style, but the old plantation homes didn't have what these rooms at Kauai Beach Resort have: travertine marble in the bathrooms and iPod docks in the living rooms. FeaturesThere's a distinctly Hawaiian feel to Kauai Beach Resort with its island architecture, but also a culture of sharing and promoting authentic Hawaiiana that sets it apart. The resort hosts events all year, including local musicians who share their art and stories, benefit concerts supporting the perpetuation of Hawaiian language and music, and a festival featuring the state's top slack-key artists. Check the annual calendar and plan your trip accordingly. Although the beach out front isn't safe for swimming, Lydgate Beach Park, a couple of miles away, offers excellent swimming and snorkeling.
