Anniversary stay..

We stayed here during our trip to Kauai. It’s an older hotel but loved the setting. The breakfast was a nice bonus along w the birds. Owner was always there tending to the property. Pool was clean. We loved the ability to borrow items to use at the beach. We would stay here again. Music was by the pool a few evenings: )

What a lovely place to stay. Off of the beaten path but does not have the feel of a commercial resort. It is well maintained. The owner is quite friendly. The breakfast is wonderful each morning. Enjoy the peacocks that strut around the property.

We really liked it here. The breakfast was great! Beds are comfortable and we literally were gone exploring all day so just what we needed. Why spend money on a condo when we are only there to rest until the next day! We appreciated all the beach equipment!

Felt like home :)

This is an older establishment but maintained well. It is close to the Lihue airport so convenient. Staff are hospitable and friendly. The views of the mountains from the property are wonderful. Bed & room were very comfortable and spacious for 2 people. The in-unit AC cooled the room nicely. Bathtub cold be recoated but worked fine. Linens smelled good. The breakfast buffet is a very good continental one- complete with Chobani yogurt, croissants, & whole pieces of local fruits. Peacocks, roosters, & cats roam around the property, which was fun :) Very comfortable stay!
