Room is tiny and outdated. Shower is tiny with slippery tile steps leading to it. Towels are thin and a little bigger than a hand towel. Walls are thin. You hear everything going on in the adjacent rooms. Everything. I requested no bottom room and despite making the res months earlier wasbplaced in a bottom floor on the farthest emd of the property. It is located in an industrial area.

We truly loved our experience at Kauai Palms. We stayed in a cottage which was more than enough for our family. It was clean and quiet. There was a nice market on the street behind us on Saturday, and the staff was so friendly. I will only stay here from now on.

I would definitely stay there again. No frill but clean and safe. The staff were very friendly. Super easy check in and out. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all. That was the only con but not a deal breaker.

Appreciates the cottage, its size-for-value, its proximity to coffee, the Night Market, and a church. The outdoor seating area in the fenced patio and in the front picnic area were great quiet areas in which to read, write, and work. The staff was friendly and tranquil.

The room was ok but i didn’t expect much for the money. There is no front desk after 8pm so i called them at 7:54pm to give them my credit card. That’s so they could give me the code to the lock box which held my key. They closed early and didn’t answer the phone. I drove over anyway and saw they had an after hours emergency number where i could read my credit card and get the lockbox code. A little extra anxiety which i didn’t need.
