Excellent accommodation for the price we paid. Location was excellent - made driving to North (Napali coast) and West (Polihale) of the island very manageable. And great walkable places for groceries and meals (we loved Fillo - get the California fries, and E Ala Cafe). Sunset colours every evening even though we didn’t face West. Unexpected perks were: - we called a couple of times on arrival day to ask about early check in and we got in at 12.30 instead of 3 - ice maker machine at adjacent building - water filter machine at reception - pool wasn’t crowded (although beds were some days) Improvements would have been : - the neighboring room had a cleaner in at 5.30am two mornings out of 6 and was having really loudly - a bit cleaner (some clusters of dirt on the floor, the entrance mat) - a bit of mechanical noise at night but mainly hidden by noise of the sea - aircon pointed straight to bed - more umbrella shades by the pool as it was competitive to get one Tips : make sure you pre book in advance a slot for Haena State Park - Ke’e beach was a highlight of our trip. And make sure you rent a kayak and go up the Wailua river (they strap the kayaks to the car roof and it doesn’t damage anything, no need to do a tour, just DIY kayak!)

We loved our stay in Kauai! The room was super clean, the resort had beautiful grounds and the pool and hot tub were well maintained. We enjoyed the pool bar as well. The room comes stocked with everything - shampoo, tp, paper towels, etc. The beach is just a few steps beyond the stairs. It wasn’t too crowded and it was a short walking distance to a ton of stores and restaurants. We had multiple choices each day for all meals within about a 5 minute walk. The beach chairs came in handy too!
